A Saskatchewan proposal that the eight strike-affected Provinces join in naming a conciliator ap- parently is shelved for the time being. Although six provinces are agreed on the suggestion.

No Problem In Marketing Potato Crop OTTAWA. Sept. m — (fineclal) --Iin the light of the United States potato position this season, mark- eting of the Canadian potato crop and particularly that of the Mar- itime Provinces “will present no serious problem". The Guardian was informed today by the Special Products Board qf tihe Dominion Department of Agriculture. “In the light of recent reports from the United Kingdom, includ- ing that of All. Bryan, Canadian commercial counsellor in London, ‘there will be no appreciable de- mend for Maritime potatoes in Great Britain this year," KB, Con- gcr, manager of the fruits and vegetables section oi the Board said. "Mr. Bryan and other experts say that the United Kingdom po- tato crop is very heavy i111; year. so there will not be any emergency order such as the one which took care of Prince Edward Island's surplus last year. On the other hand. prospects in the United States Inarket look promising." Three factors entering into pros- pects for a good market for pota- toes this year, Mr. Conger sa'd, were the smaller United States crop, the smaller Canadian cro-p, and the strong price support given the United Statespotato-grcwer by the government. \ Down 24 Percent Potato production according to latest American estimates, is down 24 per cent from 1946 and down four percent from the 1938-45 av- Tbe men who covets ll always poor.

Under the American proposal a permanent committee of the 55 powers would remain in session to take up matters of peace and sec. urity and have the power to con- vene the full Assembly, where there is no veto, to deal immediately with any piressE-ng issue. The United States also has an- nounced that it favors creation of a special committee to study the veto. Warren R.
