The new steel order will be the first of its kind for Canada in peacetime.- Previous orders have dealt mainly with the con- struction industry, banning the use of steel without a permit for such construction as: Recreation. theatres, bowling alleys. banks. credit institutions. office buildings. liquor stores. beauty and florist shops, hotels, motor courts. retail and depart- ment store and plants for the production of cigarcts, liquor and candy. There was no intimation of how much steel the Government hopes to save under the new or- der. Mr. Howe already has indi- cated that this country is short about 1.500.000 tons this year on what industry requires.

March 28 -- (AP)-- President Truman today signed a bill to gerfnit the entry into the United tates of persons who were involuntary members of Nazi. Fascist or Communist organisations abroad. involuntary memberships are defined as those obtained when an individual was under 10 re of age. these re- quired by ocal law. or those ob- tained for the purpose of re- calving employment, food rations or other essentials. -'1 b s by Mr. Harold Rodd and in his address Mr. Chew dealt mainly with the origin of the board of trade movement, its growth in the Maritilrnes and his inikrpretation of what a board of trade stands for. "Boards of trade" he said, "are maintained to get things done and the representations made by a board of trade usually get more consideration than those of any other organization. "rhe primary objective of the present executive of the Maritime Provinces board of trade." he said, "is greater unity between the var- ious boards of the three prov- inces.' Dealing with the method follow- cd by al boards in submitting their resolutions to Ottawa he contended that the system was not so very effective. The resolut- ions are in many cases given scant attention and are very often merely lcknowledged by a deputy or a clerk in the department con- cerned. He suggested a parlia- mentary liaison committee at Ot- tswa through which the resolut- ions might be channelled to the proper authorities. Due to the address by the guest speaker, the regular agenda of business was considerably curtail- ed. The secretary read a letter from Mr. J. Watson MncNaught. M.P., stating that the additional 54.486 required for converting the heating system in the new post flee from coal to oil had been con- firmed. l Reporting for the retail merch- eats committee, Mr. Ross Mac- Kensie said that one application had been received from a local man for the night watoiunan sor- r WANTED Single man for farm work.

Appointed (Continued from Page 1) ' etnrnent for making 'naccul-ate reports to the press about the work done by the Eskimo dur- ing the past year. He quoted one report as stating that over 4,000 tons of produce had been ferried between the two Provinces and claimed the report was incorrect. Wrong Impression Premier Jones retorted t.hat'4.- 200 tons of produce and materials had been transported between the Provinces. Mr. Mathieson re- plied that the press statement gave a wrong impression as he was interested in the trade leav- ing here. "I heard ll report that the boat left here on one occasion with only 30 tons cargo," he said. "I have also heard statements from people in the business that the boat is Inadequate." He wondered why a boat with a reported abil- ity to handle 300 tons was trav- elling with such small cargoes. "The Government's venture in- to Socialism was handled very badly. It has failed miserably at a great financial loss and at a loss of goodwill. "I suggest that the first thing to do to cut the losses would be to get rid of the ship. I have been informed by PEOPIG "B0313 with Newfoundland that they (Newfoundlanders) always liked our trade but. recently they have become concerned over our meth- ods of doing things. They want their products in their way, not the way we want. to do things." He pointed out that the way of shipping now was by refriger- alien and that a proper ship should be purchased to bring the food to the Newfoundland peo- ple. "We have refrigeration space on the Eskimo", countered the Premier "and it has never been fully taken up." "I have been informed by ship- pers that it is too small," replied Mr. Mathieson. He quoted I5 statement from the report of the Director of Trade to this effect. "If the space Is too small wily is it not filled?" shouted several Ministers of the Crown. who kept telling Mr. Mathicson that his speech was out of order as he wag dealing with the topic of the Eskimo while the Director of 'rrade'a department was being considered in the estimates. "The Newfoundland people need chilled beef." continued Mr. Muthleson. "What we need here is an abbottoir to develop the trade. This abbottolr should be constructed by i1l'1VBt0 Capnfl and backed by the Government. For Outport Trude ' Premier Jones prefaced his re- marks by noting that the 09' position seemed to have "a DWI on the Eskimo." "Her net ton- nage is 245 tonl,", he stated. "and we did not expect her to carry a full load from July 10 until the last of September each year. All the rest of the time she has been filled with cargo. "When she was bought it was envisaged that she would trade with the outporta and those peo- pic of Newfoundland have at)- prcclotod this. "The people do not seem to know what has happened to our grade in the past year. The 09' position do not know and appar- ently neither does the Board of Trade and several other ol'KBn'1' ntlons. "I am referring to the action taken by the c.

He stated that he told this to Mr. MacKinnon outside the House but since the question was naked in the House he preferred to answer it in front of the mem- bers. Speaking about the Eskimo again. Premier Jones said he did not think the men who were taking over the boat would re- ceive a Dominion Government subsidy. "The sltilaiion is serious." he polnted out. "We have bonused trade passing by our door to Newfoundland. The Opposition should be doing something about it rather than spending their time attacking the Eskimo. "We ,wlll not need any dry dock in Charlottetown, we won't have any shipping here. The hon- orable member would be foolish enough to ship chilled meat by water. If anyone wants to get in on the chilled meat trade. let him get in by the bonus method on the C.N.R. "If the Dominion Government paid us 82.000000 today they would not make up for the dam- age they have done us in the past: year." he concluded. Mr. R. H. Bell.

I New Fabric from Peanuts 0l'.DND0lN, March 29-(Reut- era)-Peanut suits will be in fashion next winter for British men and women. Scientists have discovered how to make a material almost as good as wool from the fibre of a peanut. Called ardil, it has been Ce- veloped by the Imperial Chemical Industries. The new fibre is being produced at a Scottish plant and target output this year is 3.500 tons- enaugh, when mixed with wool on a 50-50 basis, to make 2.000.000 suits. Next year's target is 10,000 tons. With wool prices soaring. mark- et experts expect the new fibre suits to be a sellout. Ardll can be dyed any color, is shrink-proof and can be made as fine as llylcn. Besides suits, ardil has been made into women's jumpers, hats, blankets and pile carpets. Beware Of- Frosted llrain For Seed OTTAWA. March 26 1951-The Canada Department of Agriculture makes a point of recommending prudence to farmers who are planning to use frosted grains as seeds. Research made in this con- nectlcn indicates that appearances are deceptive and that. by it- self, an eye test can be far wrong. Germination tests on cereal grains taken from the frost area s1-u-rounding the Experimental Station at Scott, sask.. show that wheat. on the whole, will germin- ate satisfact-orily. But this is not so true of cats and barley. Many samples of these two cereals had it germlnative ability below 40 per cent and only few of 80 per cent. according to A. C. Kusch, cereal- ist at this station. , The extent to which germinat- ion has been impaired by frost can- not be determined visually. Wheat may appear to be damaged severe- ly nnd yet give a. good percentage germination and the reverse may be true. The germination of cats and barley may be seriously im- pafced while showing little exter- nal slgn of frost damage. Frost-damaged grains were also seeded in soil at Scott. In all cases. the percentage of plants emerging did not equal the laboratory per- centage germination and the low- er the percentage germination of the sample, the greater the dis- crepancy of plants emerging. Furthermore. as the depth of seeding increased. the percentage of plants emerging den.-eased. An additicnal observation was that the lower the percentage nermlnailoh of the sample, the more serious the failure of plants to emerge with increased depth of seedlns- In view of those findings, farm- ers are urged to make or have germination test mode on frosted grain iir grain coming from H985 affected by frcst.

' .The.Board rejected a motion in which the railways yesterday called for dismissal of complaints against the proposed new rates, which range up to 68 per cent over existing charges. The commissioners held the complainants had made out a prima facle case against the high- er rates, and the railways would have to bring in evidence to show they would be "reasonable" and not "unjustly discriminatory" in relation to other express rates. Complainants against the in- creases are the Fisheries Council of Canada, representing processors and distrlibutors: the Maritime Transportation Cornnldssion, the Saskatchewan Government, and the fish industry of Alberta and the Northwest Territory. They were in the middle all argument against the railways ddsmlsasl motion today when the Board. after overnight consider- attion. announced it was rejecting 1 The higher rateswcrc sought by the railways originally in 1949. They have been held up by the Board since ihen, and the com- rn-issioners now are hearing ev- idence to determine whether the SUSIDEDSJOH should be lifted. The new rates would apply chlefly to shipments of fresh and frozen fish from the Maritime; and prairie area, and today Ai- berta counsel J. J. Fra-wley argued that was a major basis for the claim of "unjust discrimination." He said that low "transcontin- ental" rates enable British Colum- bia fish to move to eastern point at charges less than from Alberta centres despite lack of compctitivt; rail facilities from the coast. A. K. Dysart. Canadian Na- tional Rai1lways' counsel, said that perhaps this situation could be taken care of by hoisting the rates from the coast. (Continued from Page l) -----:---a will not operate from here. The statement was also made that if the Newfoundland-Canada line is kept advised of conditions here and sufficient, cargo la one;-. ing around the first of May they Wculd send a ship over from Hali- fax to load for Newfoundland. M13 Wheltley said that the New- foundlanders "dipped" heavily in. to cattle in the early part of the season and that ships can then be obtained when plenty of freight is offering, However, he added, July and early August are poor shipping times and ships could not then make regular runs unless they were subsidized. He mentioned this in connection with the difficulties faced by those trying to ship fresh aims and said they were handl. Capped by being unable to send a cargo when ready. He was supported in his dec- laratlon of shipping needs by Knut Jolie"-Sen. Kensinsion. one of the largest shippers of you; pigs. Mr, Jorsensen felt that even it rates were higher by water than by rail it well paid the shipper to tags the extra. original cost for the sake of the time saved. He mentioned the N811 19801118 costs and the condition on arrival of animals shipped over the rail route through Ncrth Sydney due to the several days time lost in transit. He also felt that "something in the nature of a shipping board" should be organized by the men interested. Cites Difficulties Commander George Buntain. who also attended. mentioned the difficulties frequently faced in allocating space available to ship- pers. He felt that a subsidized ship would provide greater facili- ties. He said that Newfoundland Canada Stearnsllips cannot come in here unless they make a profit and payment of a subsidy to them appeared to be the solution. He felt that Island shippers should ask for a subsidized service. He said this company would give a good service and would start as soon as roads are open to permit arrival of cargo at dockside here. It WES Dcinted out at the meet- ing that this was the only shipp- ing Province without a refrigerated boat service and the importance of having this, eventually was em- phasized. one of the big advant- ages would be that such a service would permit the shining of dressed meats and this method would let Islanders got a great deal more freight on one ship. It would also cut operating costs in unloading as with- live cattle travelling expenses for cleaning up were high. , However. the main concern of the meeting was making certain that ship! hill continue to operate between here and Newfoundland. One speaker said "Wo cannot do without the boats". Another re- marked that the boats cannot do without paying rates. It was felt that small shippers would be the hardest hlt if the ships were dis- continued. The keynote was struck when it was said that if this Newfound- land trade is valuable enough to the Island generally "then we should press for a subsidy". But Mr. Wheatley reminded thl zathering that "The day h'as come when one man does not go far alone. The shippers should have their own board formed before go. ing to others to ask help in the fight". Those present finally decided to meet privately with other interest- ed shippers to set their views and. 0 Lhen call another meeting late next month to discuss it publicly. MEADOW BANK W. I.
