These figures would not general.mana,<zers of Newfound-I land's two paper‘ mills Thursday praised efforts by Premier Jo- seph S m a 1 1 w o od to interest Crown Zellerbach Corporation in building a third mill in this prov- ince. v General Manager Albert Mar- tin of the huge Bowater plant at Corner Brook said it would be “a grand thing for Newfoundland” if a “fine company” like Crown Zellerbach established a mill. “We will pass along whatever information we havs at our dis- posal." ‘ I T. R. Moore, vice - president and general manager of the An- glo - Newfoundland Development Company in Grand Falls, said the firm is “an excellent com- pany, highly diversified in the. pulp and paper field.”- “The establishment of a third mill . . . is quite feasible provid- ing that use is made of Labra- dor wood to supplement the wood a third mill would consume from local Crown lands." The mill would be a tremend-l ous shot in the arm to the gen-.1 eral economy of the whole island; and Labrador. 'i WOULD LAUNCH STUDY ture grants its approval, the par- ent United States Crown Zeller- bach firm in San Francisco will begin early this year to study the possibility of_ establishing a paper mill and a plant _to turn out a spe- cial chemical .pulp. '. . Premier Smallwood and, the company’s Canadian head,‘-.P. T. Sinclair, said Wednesday night the mills would eventually pro- duce 400 tons of.newsprint and up to 2,000‘ tons of pulp a day; Mr. Sinclair is also a vice-pres- ident of the U.S. company. They would use 1,250,000 cords of wood each year and the - ‘company would pay the government $1 a’ cord. In addition the government [would receive $2 for each square mile of ground rented. This would amount to about $100,000 annu- ‘ ally. Timber would be supplied to the company under 99-year re- newable leases.‘ They will cover Crown land in Newfoundland, mostly in the southern region, and the southeastern region of Labrador. ' If the plants are built, Premier Smallwood said, they would em- ploy about 4,000 men. Another Commission Will Sit Here If Provincial Gov’t Asks By ALAN DONNELLY Canadian Press Staff Writer OTTAWA (CP) -— A ‘new royal commission on food price spreads is planning hearings over a year to discover why food prices be- have as they do. Dr. Andrew Stewart of Edmon- ton, chairman of the seven-mem- ber commission, said Monday its inquiry will cover any aspect of market behavior between food producers and consumers. , At a press conference following Stewart was asked whether he hopes the investigation will result in lower prices to consumers or higher prices for producers. “We're going in to look at this thing and the chips will fall where they may," he replied. Dr. Stewart, 53-year-old Edin- burgh-born president of the Uni- versity of Alberta, said the com- mission wants to hear from farm- ers, fishermen, consumers, pro- cessors, distributors, tra-nsport- ers and labor. , . It would get down to details like loss leaders and premium‘ stamps, freight rates, advertising costs. tariffs on -imported food and profit margins. SET UP DEC. 10 The commission was set up Dec. 10 to inquire into “the ex- tent and the causes” of price spreads, to determine whether the spreads are “fair and reason- able” and to make recommenda- tions if they are excessive. Dr. Stewart said the report on the difference between the price paid food producers and that charged consumers will require more than a year to produce. I The inquiry will be the first into food price spreads since 1934. Dr. Ste w a rt indicated he doesn’t expect to find anything seriously improper. Th e commission tentatively scheduled springtime dates for public hearings in the West and the Maritimes. It will adjourn during the summer and wind up in Ontario and Quebec‘ in the fall. Currently proposed dates: Van- couver, March 19-21; Edmonton, March 24-25; R e gin a, March 27-28; Winnipeg, March 31-April 1; Moncton, April 29-30; Halifax, May 1-2; St. John’s, Nfld., May MAY MEET, IN P.E.I. . Dr. Stewart said these may be changed to include hearings in Victoria and_ Charlottetown if the provincial governments request it‘. The commission includes one woman, Mrs. Dorothy Walton of Toronto, past president of the Ca- nadian Association of Consumers. “Consumers are quite impor- tant in this inquiry,” the chair- man said. Other members: Howard Mac-T Kichan, Halifax, general manager ' of United Maritime Fishermen Limited; Romeo Martin, Quebec City, general manager of the Co-‘ operative Federation of Quebec; Dr. W. M. Drummond, Guelph, Ont., chairman of the National Farm Radio Forum; Cleve Kidd, Toronto, president of the Ontario Federation of Labor; Bernard Couvrette, Montreal, president of a wholesale ‘grocery firm. 9 SUMMERFIELD c. w.

MOVING WOOD PROBLEM One‘of the problems facing Zel- lerbach is getting wood out of the Labrador woods and shipping it to the plants which would be es- tablished at-Fortune Bay, PLacen- tia Bay or Bay d’Espoir. Labor is reported scarceirn Labrador and the region is comparatively undeveloped. ‘ , . But, said Mr. Martin, Bowater has had little difficulty. .“It was a problem of loading and dis- charge which . was solved to a large extent by the use‘ of ma- chines in an area where man- power was scarce." And it doesn’t matter‘ if the mills are ‘established on the east or west coast. “Once the wood is loaded an extra 100 miles or so will not make that much differ-i ence.”i Old C. ‘P. S.
