Her father was at work in Pine Falls, Ml:In., and was notified of the tragedy by the R.C.M.P. The family came to Canada four years ago from Scotland.

MARITIME BUSINESS The Bank of Montreal Business Board says: Retail trade generally com- pares favourably with last year due in no small measure to prolonged clearance sales being conducted in many lines. Wholesale volume in building materials and hardware has shown a. decided drop during the past month but on the whole trade has been well maintained as compared with a year ago. Collec- tions are rated fair to good. Manu- facturing piants, with the excep- tion of textile mills. have been well employed. Woods operations in New Brunswick during the month were satisfactory. The de- mand for rough pulpwood has fall- en off considerably but prices are unchanged. The production of pit- props is satisfactory and demand is strong. Dried fish stocks are below normal: with reopening of the West Indian market-demand is strong and prices tend to advance. Janu- ary fresh fish catches have been the best in many years. Potato shipments are steady at prices of 3500 to 35.35 per barrel loaded; it is estimated that about three-quar- tors of the crop has been market- ed. Coal mines operated on a full- time basis while steel -production in Nova Scotia was 91.8895 of rated capacity.

TORONTO, Feb. 2'1 -(GP) - Cattle prices dipped sharply on the Ontario stockyards today amid confusion over the possible effects of the foot-and-mouth disease in Saskatchewan. some market and industry men feared that Ontario cattlemen would become panicky and flood the market. They said that if ord- erly marketing prevails Ontario farmers should not suffer any loss. There were only 320 head of cattle sold-far below the usual number. steers and heifers were down from iii to M and cows off as much as S5. The sales were too few to establish A trend, The carryover for tomorrow's market is the same as it was for today's, 2.-100-three or four times the normal carryover for mid- week trading. Much of the cattle on hand is of poor quality. Cattlemcn said this showed a tendency for farmers and country drovers to send unfinished beasts to market because of the llnccrtainty of the effects of gov- ernment action to combat foot- nnd-moutlt disease. At the request of the Ontario Government, the Federal Govern- ment has banned all shipments of livestock front Saskatchewan and Manitoba into Eastern Canada. Dressed mcatsmnystlllbe brought in.

The two veterans were honoring. particularly the memory of Roland! Taylor and Alfred Riggs. two Charlottetown boys who were kill- ed in south Africa. They were supported by mem- bers of the Charlottetown Branch of the Canadian Legion, whose president. Mr. Charles Sinclair. quoted from the immortal lines of, Laurence Binyon's poem-"At the going down of the sun and in the. morning we will remember them." Service At Monument A brief service was conducted at lthe Boer War monument by Rev. I-f.E.D. Ashford. In his address to ltlie small gathering he said the. Battle of Paardeburg was cele-It brated and remembered here be- cause of the men of Prince Edward Island. especially Alfred Riggs and Roland Taylor, who went forth from our Island to fight for the, Empire. "Those who fought andv died. at the beginning of the cen- tury were the vanguard of the host who were to follow in the First and Second Great Wars." He added that Paardeburg was also remembered for the two great British generals, Gen. John French- and Gen. H.)-I. Kitchener. who combined their armies at Pannie- berg in an action which resulted in 4.000 Board lying down their arms. "That was the beginning of V the end of the Boer War." ”In paying our tribute to the men of Prince Edward Island who went forth over 50 years ago we honor those of all the ages who trust they are fighting a war to end wars and bring eventual and lasting peace.” The Last Post was sounded by Bugler Frank Smith.

He may be out 'of it within two to six months. This is the opinion of a. reliable source from inside that iron-cur- tain country. The informant adds that Gottwald may attempt to flee the country to escape the fate of those he himself has purged. The informant. who cannot be quoted by name, outlines the Czechoslovak situation this way: Lagging production angered the Soviet Union, which was draining off Czechoslovakian wealth. Rus- sla ordered a shake-up. Gott- wald, to save himself, was forced to purge persons who might have been - and in fact had been - Rudolf Slansky, his own nllies. r W in jail and charged with at- tempting to murder Gottwaid, was one of these. New Gottwald himself is on probation. If the monthly re- ports of Czechoslovak production do not show a decisive upsurge. Gottwald is in serious trouble. If the six-month production figures should still be below Soviet de- mands, Gottwald is finished.

The chief of the Frasers was in the Commandos in wartime. He is well known for his interest in agriculture and particularly cattle. the family estate being reported to exceed 190,000 acres. Czechs are getting poorer every day. except for the ruling Com- munlsts and a select group of workers. Informants in Yugoslavia insist that Czechoslovakia is the weak- est link in the Cominform chain. But there is little hope of an up- rising. Police Chief Gels Praise RIO DE JANEIRO.
