Davie Fulton will quit his justice port- folio to become full-time minister of citizenshi and immigration. it was reported Wednesday. Progressive Conservative quar- ters also said that such a move probably would result in Solicitor- General Leon Balcer switching to the more important ministry of jus.ice. The report followed an indica- ton Tuesday by Prime Misister Dicfenbaker that he has changed his mind about keeping Mr. Ful- ton for some considerable time in the dual job of Justice and citizen- ship minister. CHANGES MIND The prime ministcr told report- ers that he "wouldn't be sur- prised” if there were soon I change in his earlier - expressed to carry on in the two major port, folios through the new parliamen- tary session opening Oct. H. Meanwhile, it we s reliably learned here ,that Dr. Sidney E. Smith, president of the Univer- sity of Toronto. will become the next minister of external affairs. a job held by Mr. Diefenbaker since his party took office June Ill. The Fulton-Balcer switch would serve the purpose of putting each of these ministers into regular portfolios generally regarded as more important than the ones they now hold on a permanent basis. Mr. Fulton, 41-year-old former Rhodes scholar, is the regular justice minister and is acting i ' i of chi ” and immi- gratton. Mr. Bait-er. 39.--has been re- garded in some quarters as hav- ing been "given a minor portfolio as solicitor-general. a post whose major function is that of decid- ing on remissions of criminal sentences such as executions. GRUMBLINGS HEARD in recent years. the previous Liberal government either com- bined the solicitor - generalshlp with the ministry of Justice or gave it to the Government Senate lcadcr largely as a means of per- mitting him to sit in on cabinet meetings. Since the Conservatives as- sumed office there have been some brumblings from Quebec that Mr. ilaiccr was not ade- quately treated in being given only the office of solicitor - gen- eral.

Carrie was located 920 miles east -northeast of San .laun. Pucrto Rico and was reported at- most stationary Wednesday noon. Forecaster Paul Moore said an intense non - tropical storm off Newfoundland is creating a wealt- ness in Carrie's circulation which detracts from the hurrlcsne's in- tensity.

He thought that last year's show in this class had been phenomenal but this year it was even better. Mr. Wright stated that there was a hundred per cent improvement in cattle quality. Mr. W.R. Shaw, former Deputy Minister of Agriculture express- ed the opinion that such exhibit- ions as the Mt. Carmel-Egmont Bay fair are very worthy pro g jet.-ts and as such are worthy of a great deal of support. POTATO SITUTION Regarding the potato situation Mr. Shaw said that there is I wonderful crop this year. Pric- es. however. are uncertain. The total Canadian crop is estimated at 60 million bushels. He said it was a good idea "tn feel out your supply to the market-don't hold too long." "it is a hard thing to establish a support price on such a peri- shable product as potatoes," Mr. Shaw pointed out. Referring to tariffs on this tariff all the year round. Mr. J.

Judges were high in their praise regarding the quality and num- ber of entries displayed.

Prime Minister Dieienbaker. who also has been holding that portfolio since the Progressive Conservatives assumed office June 21. offered no comment about the appointment. However, Dr. Smith is sched- uled to come here Friday. and his appointment will be an- nounced then. it was learned. CONSIDER RESIGNATION The university's board of gov- ernors meets in special session to- day to consider the resignation of its 60-year-old president. The appointment would answer criticism in newspapers and po- litical circles about the prime minister carrying two heavy port- folios. Discussion belween Mr. Dtefenbaker and Dr. Smith begal two weeks ago, culminating II agreement last weekend at Han- over, N.H., where both received honorary doctorate of law de- grees from Dartmouth College.
