Dec. 16—(speola1)- Owing to increased allocations of Canadian foodstuffs to Newfound- land this year. it is likely that a. larger volume oi Prince Edward Is- land livestock and farm produce will be sold to the Ancient Col- ony this season than last. the Guardian was informed today by H. A. Gilbert, chairman of the recent Canada - Newfoundland food conference. “These agreements have been going on for some years.” Mr. Gil- bert said. “The only difference thLs time is that we've agreed on somewhat larger allocations from canada to Newfoundland than in the past. Tho Canadian export agreements will be open at both ends to a greater extent than be- fore. I would say that it is quite possible that the market for Prince Edward Island farm pro duce this season will be larger than last." wm Mean 1c p. c. More Fer-Bacon, y Cheese. Eggs, Beef (By it. K.

The morale of the organized reserves is “so badly shot that I doubt you could get together 20 per cent of the men in an emerg- ency."

I Plans For Snow - Plowing MainHighwaysComipleted The Department of Public Works has completed arrangements for keeping the main highways cleared.’ snow during the coming winter months. Hon. George Barbour an- nounced yesterday. - Within the next few days, it is hoped to have seven caterpillar- i-Ffliliol‘ blows, 13 motor graders, and three Walter-s tnwk-plcvws~~-ioeatcd at stratflfllc points in the Province. There will be one caterpillar!‘- tractou‘ plow at each of the follow- ing centres: Albarton. Silmmerslde, Hunter River, Bonshztw, Charlotte- town. Mount Stewart. and Morell. One motor grader will be located at each of those centres: O'Leary, Tyne Valley, St. Eieanors, Stnnmer- side. Kensi-ngton, Borden, Eldon. and Sour-is. Three graders will op- crate out of Charlottetown and there will be two at Montague. Those motor graders are the heavy type of road machines with plows attached. They have a wider range of operation than the caterpillar- tiactor plows for they travel at a much greater rate of speed. Two of the Walters truck plows will operate out of Charlottetown and the other will be located in Stmmerslde. Those machines are heavy-duty trucks with V-plows mounted in front and have been found effective under most winter conditions. , Mr. Barbour said that all those machines. with the exception of the Walters truck plows. are engaged on road work during the summer months so that their transfer to winter duty. thus eliminating the necessity of special winter road- equipment, makes for a consider- able saving. Even the Walters machines. Mr. Barbour said. are used in the summer months for towing heavy road equipment frcm ms scene of operations to another. MONTY COMPLETING TOUR CAIRO.

SPA. AbbctPbeals With Dollar S i t u at i c n By DZARCY UDONNELL OTTAWA, Dec. 16 — (CP) Need for a new trada agreement that would facilitate" a heavy flow of Canadian goods to American markets was emrphasized today in the Commons by Finance Minister Abbott as he gave a lengthy re- view of steps taken to meet Can- ada's shortage of United States dollars. In a ZQODO-word speech on a bill containing emergency measures for the conservation of Canadian foreign exchange resources. Mr. Abbott said that Canada's view: with respect to a new agreement had been informally communicated to the United States Government. which was also studying methods of promoting mutally-beneficial economic fro-operation. lilr. Abbott said the “urgent and serious dollar problem" had arisen out of the fact that Canada sold to Europe and Britain largely on. credit and bought from the United States for cash. In pro-war years this three-way trade has present- ed no difficulties because exchange was readily convertible. but he could see no early return to pre- war conditions. While Mr. Abbott said the Government felt its approach to the problem was a “sound and sensible one." J.M. Mac- donnell (PC - llIuskoka-Ont- srio). chief financial critic for the Prozresplvo Conservative Party. said the crisis has! aidsen because of the Government's "mismanagement" of the sit- nation. Mr. Macdorinell said the bill was one of the “most prennstemus’ ever brought into the House. It gave powers to one man which he never thought to see in Canada. The powers were “astounding?
