WN. CANADA; WEDNESDAY, JULY 14. 1954 SAIGON. Indo-China. (Reuters) -vietminh rebel troops launched a new attack in aouthem Indo-China Tuesday as assault forces in the north increased their pressure around the French-held Red river delta redoubt. The 30,000-population, city of Pakse, in southern Laos, was fired on by rebel mortars, the first time in the. eight-year war it has come Mr. Donald A. MacDonald, man- aser of the Prince Edward Island Potato Marketing Board returned to the Province yesterday after ll motor trip to the potato growing areas of Eastern Canada and the United States which took him al- most three weeks. Mr. MacDonald stator that the fruit and vegetable crop conditions in many parts are backward for this season of the year. "Temper- a.tures", he says, "have been run- ning below normal and this with a very irregular rainfall, tend to indicate that there will likely be a decrease in the total potato pro- duction for this season." July production figures for the whole of the United States are now estimated to be about 345,000,000 acres. or a decrease of 28,000,000 from last year's level. In Southern Ontario. they are now harvesting the early crop. Growers in the Leamington, Har- row and Bridgetown areas are get. ting only fair yields but prices have increased to over 33.00 a bag and they expect to have a profit- able return from their crop. They expressed satisfaction with, the quality of th'c..s0ed purohisod-kffgwm Prince Edward Island last year. In Maine, potatoes were still be- ing planted toward the just of June. ''A cool wet season has been responsible for these late plant- ings." said Mr. MacDonald. "For this reason." he added. ”Maine production is going to depend to a greater extent than usual on grow- ing conditions during the next six weeks. Unless they are favorable. the yield cannot be expected to compare-with that of the last two years". , Market Possibilities Mr. MacDonald feels therefore that next year's potato market may have poslbillties which did not exist during last season. "Growers on the Island," he stated. "would be well advised to take the beat of care of their crop during the com- POTATO BOARD CHAIRMAN RETURNS FROM VISIT T0 SOUTHERN STATES .-x- V 1). A. I .

The Ontario cheese producers have been able during the past several weeks to obtain a market in Brit- ain for surplus cheese production. This should have a stabilizing ef- fect on the whole dalrying indus- try," observed Mr. MacDonald. He stated that "while there are many fine agricultural areas in Ontario.

The children were all believed to be between 0 and ii years of age. The boat was owned by Jack Seligman. 44, of Montreal, who has a cottage near where the chil- dren were spending the day. As a goodwill gesture he offered to take the children in groups for cruises on the lake. Eye-witnesses said Seligman. his wife and two children were in the boat and were among those res- cued. Two groups had been taken for rides before the accident oc- curred. Witnesses gave conflicting ac- counts of what happened. Some said that the 'chiIdren'becamc panicky when a sudden gust of wind sent a large wave against the side of the boat.

The boat was de- scribed as one that normally would carry a maximum of seven adults. Residents said the water is not more than seven feet deep where the craft capsized. Leon Cl.-ling. 32, of Montreal. driver of one of three buses which took the children to the picnic grounds. said he was on the beach When he heard the children screaming. ”Thcy panicked." he said.

I Sees Coal Production Cut In Hall: I ANTIOONISH, N. l., (OP) -- A senior industry official said Mon- day Maritime coal production may be out in half, to about 3,000,000 tons a year, if drastic. steps are not taken to erase the inroads made by oil and other fuels. Harold Gordon. chief of coal or eretions for the Dominion steel and coal com. was one of a panel of experts representing industry. unions and the government who took the platform at the biennial Rural-Industrial Conference to argue the llaritime cause in fields ;IolI.cI:I' from fishing to hydro W . Mr. Gordon said the switch by householders, tnduuq and the railways from coal to oil 1040 has 450,000 tons of coal from the corporation's Mari. time market alone. An additional 400,000 ions was lost in Quebec. RITARD TREND He said the diaseliaaiion pro- dueti grain of the Oanedtan National Reuways would cost the Maritime coal industry a market of at least 000,000 tone by 1000 i action isunot taken to retard the trend to o air. Gordon said the Inriiinle market for coal mined in Cape Qlgsuizn andclsaillare in the Alp Provinces could well shrink to since by about 1.000.000 tons during the next. few years. He said it was even conceivable that Maritime coal would be driven from the Quebec market entirely and annual production be dumped to about 3,000,000 tons annually, about half the current rate of pro- on. Dr. Robert D.

He said maximum productivity was necessary for the complete survival of the industry in the Maritimes. Steven Dnlhanty. vice-president of the United Mine Workers CCL District 26 at Glace Bay, said the coal business could do with more loyalty from the persons whose well-being it directly effects.
