(spacial) -The forty- hvo cents per bushel which farm- ers in Prince Edward Island are presently being paid for their po- tatoes through the pool arrange. merit is "an initial payment, which is guaranteed by us". Ross. J. G Gardiner, Federal Minister of Agri- culture. told the production con. iorencs of provincial agriculture ministers and deputies Ind, staff members, which concluded here today. Mr. Gardiner explained that it ill: Federal Government stepped in to support the price, as some have suggested it mum lead to I situation Where people in other provinces who did not need to grow potatoes for s. living, would stop in and put the Island and New Brunswick farmers-- New Brunswick was also mention- rti--out of business in a year. We think that the people in the Provinces concerned should pro- vide their own method of hand- ling the problem of special pro- ducts like potatoes through their own marketing boards, and that is what is being done: he said. so far as the initial payment i.-. concerned, it is a guaranteed minimum. If the price of potatoes rises any money over and above the amount of forty- five cents will be divided equally among those participating in the pool during the year. The only advice Mr, Gardiner would give to farmers generally was to find what their farm was best suited to produce and than keep on producing it. The advice was what he had roeived from his scotch grandfather; he said. Hon. C. 0. Baker, Minister of Agriculture. and his deputy W. R. shIw.'spoke for Prince Edward Island. Mr. Baker noted...ilut..ths transportation difficulties he had been complaining of in the past still existed but observed regret- fully that he didn't think their correction was within the scope of human pouibilities, Mr. Shaw felt that the farmer is not doing a good public rela- tions job and is not keeping the lust of the people informed on his problems and on his economy.

Churchill Faces Party Revolt LONDON. (Reuters) -- Prime Minister Churchill's Conservative government Tuesday night received the strongest opposition from Con- servative ranks it has faced since taking office two years ago. Several Conservatives threatened in the House of Commons to hold up next year's service estimates- ihe armed iorcas' budget-unless the government increases pensions for retired army officers who served in the First World War. But Churchill said in answer to I question that his government Will not authorize the increases. which would cost about 5200.000 to 5500.000 I year. He said the government has care- fully studied the question. and has decided it cannot provide the spe- cial increases. in reply to cries of "shama"from both sides of the House, he said: "I was we! aware the answer I gave would not be received with satisfaction and it was for that reason I thought it ought not to be made by a departmental officer but someone speaking with the au- thority of the govemm,ent."'f llroeiTarieT Role for Women in Government OTTAWA.

"They are capable of taking part in all human affairs," she said in presenting her report as lead- er of the P. E. I. section of the federatloii. Reports from other provinces also were heard. Considering what women have done in the past, Mrs. Inman said, "great things may be accomplished by men and women working to- gether at government levels." "Women, with their systematic minds and careful planning. would be of immeasurable value to gov- ernment."

He thereby Joined the ex- panding ranks of opponents to sug- gested crop controls as a means of preventing over-supply of pro- duction and declining prices. Winding up the two-day fed- eral-provlncial agriculture confer- ence, Mr. Gardiner argued that Canada has not "many" food sur- pluses, that her market in Britain is still the biggest she's ever had there, and that the future is not so gloomy as some provincial farm spokesmen have tried to make out. While he could not guarantee what wheat and cattle producers will get for their products six months from now, he was certain that if there are surpluses of cat- tle, they will be sold in the Un- ited States. And most of Canada's surplus wheat will still go in Britain.

Hopes Constitution Will Be Amended OTTAWA, (CP)- Prime Minis- ter St. Laurent Tuesday night rc- iterated the hope that Canada will be able to amend her con- stitution in all ways. The Prime Minister, in an ad- dress prepared for delivery before the National Federation of Lill- ernl Women, was referring to an Impasse that has developed over means of changing the constitu- tion in relation to matters of joint federal-provincial interest. The federal and provincial gov- ernments may amend their con- stitutions on matters of interest to each, but on questions of Joint interest they still must go to the United Kingdom Parliament. "1 hope particularly." the Prime Minister said, "that a means may be found to amend our own con- stitution in all rsspecta lu-re in Canada when amendments may be required." Ties He added: "We have found that the pro- gressive removal of limitations Mill Firm 1 forced on Kong the firs ssven months this year." Mr. Brunet said Canadians can- upon our full national status has in no way weakened our relation- . not compete at home with coun- tries in which the cost of labor is 40 cents I day compared with no in Canada.

"Thehi sioric position of thr- Liht-rai pnriy is that the man.- complete our national autonomy is, the stronger the Common- wraltll will ho," To his audience of women, Mr. St. Laurent said he hopes that in tho ncxt federal election illerc will he mnro women candidates and more Liberal women elected to the Commons. In the Aug. 10 election, om- I.iht-ral and thrce Prngrcssivr, Conservative women were return- ed to the House. Formed For Security Turning to int!-rnlltirlnnl fairs, could assure peace if all member nations kept their obligations. "But we have learned since 0945." he added, "that some na- tions are using that world body more as a sounding board for their propaganda than as an in- strument to preserve peace." at- Because of the "manifest in- .-lincrrlty" of these nations, the North Atlantic Treaty 'Orgnni7.- union had been formed to acllievr security. Canada could take pride in her contribution in NATO. Shr- was the first nation to fulfil hr.-r military commitments. Dealing with social security, Mr. St. Laurent aalrl measures spon- sored by Liberal governments as- aure Canadians in future in which the hazards of daily life are pro- vided for.

Pear- son, Canadian external affairs min- ister, said Tuesday the government has found the document relating to discussions between a. "high- piaoed" Canadian ,source and the U. S. government about Harry Dex- tar White. Pearson told a. UN Correspon- clenia Association luncheon meet- lng that the document will be made public in the House of Commons Wednesday when a full government statement is made on the U. S. request for congressional to interview Igor for permission invmilgators Gouzenko. Should Agree I-lint Pearson's remarks on the doc- ument relating to the White case were made in commenting on an article by David Lawrence from Washington in Tuesday's New Herald Tribune, At last week's intemai security sub-committee hearing in Wash- ington Attorney-General I-lerberi Brownell read a letter mentioning that a "high-placed" Canadian source had inquired in 1946 about White because Canada and Britain were considering the possibility of nominating him to head the In- ternational Monetary Fund. The letter mentioning the ”hlgh- placed" Canadian source had been a confidential, document until Brovwnell declassified it. Prime Minister, at: Laurent later ex- pressed surprise that the letter would have been declassified by Iirownell without first asking Can- acla. Pearson said Tuesday it is nor- mal practice ln such cases for both' governments to agree before such letters are declassified. St. Laurent said last week that no record had been found of the information passed on to washing- ton by the Canadian source. Law- rencets article said the record prob- ably would never be found because such information is often passed on without being written down. But Pearson. without elaborat- ing, said the document had been found and would be included in the full report to be made by the government to the House of Com- mons Wednesday. Pearson said that Canada would not prevent American alllliorities from questioning Gouzenko, the former code clerk at the soviet embassy in Ottawa who broke the Canadian spy case in 1046. He said that Cimlzenko had been questioned many times in the last E8K.EirTuB?l-on-';7a&er5.77BlT s ' First stop 0n Royal Tour 20-Hour Visit HAMILTON.
