Premier J. Walter Jones yesterday informed the official representatives of the Provinces six smaller towns, The statement was made in the Msislative Chambers yesterday afternoon when representatives of the Towns of Aiberton. Borden, Kenslngton, Montague, George- town and souris assembled under the chairmanship of J. F. Con- nolly.

McConnell, Georgetown, that the Mayor and Council of each Town appoint one representative and that those representatives meet ln Charlotte- town on August 15 next was un- animousiy adopted. T‘ " " Needed Mr. Connolly opened the meet- ing by stating that it had been impossible to do much in respect to town planning because of the lack of uniformity in the Incor- poration Acts of the various towns. As matters stand at present, Mr. Connolly said, the various towns are handicapped because of their lack of a uniform Incorporation Act when they wish to approach the Government on financial" or economic matters. It was his opin- icnnhe said, that his Department could do much more for those towns if its work could be made more effective by reason of s greater uniformity. Those, he said. were the main reasons for his Department having called the present meeting. Mr. Paul Gallant, Mayor of Souris, said he had come to the meeting with an open mind. I-lc believed there was much to be said in favour of s uniform in- corporation but in achieving such uniformity, he thought there would have to be considerable ‘give and take." Moreover, it was his opinion that each town should be able to bring its ‘ry-laws to that state where they would be mori- ern and satisfactory to the citi- zens concerned without the ne- cessity of such a. meeting as the present one. Mr. W. A. Fields, Borden Town Magistrate’ said he could not agree with all said by Mr. Gallant. Mr. Fields could see no reason why there should not be a uniform Incorporation Act. Borden hsd authority to enact certain by-laws but when "it came to a showdown. holes could be picked in many of them."

July 20—(AP) —Heavy selling drove stock prices down‘$l. to more than $3 a share today in one of the severest declines in months. More than 81.000.000.000 in market value of all shares listed in the eschsnge was erased. Shares of virtually every type of business gave ground and Wall Street linked the decline with a two-day drop in tho London stock market. Steel, automobile, rubber, farm implement and rallmad stocks all gave ground sharply. Weakness at London was believ- ed to reflect growing fears tihat. the British economic picture was dc- terioratlng at an alarming rate. A turn for the worse there. it was felt, could have profound repercussions throughout the world. Wheat declined at Chicago and cotton slutrnped at New York in the general uneasiness. Wail Streeters also credited re- cent slumping commoditlcs and n- newed talk of an inflation-recession cycle as the main reasons behind the decline.

To accomplish this DUIpOEQ, the Island Chick HBtchEry Co. has been formed headed by Donald A.

The new hatchery will be under tlhe management of Mr Basil MacQui-id, Charlottetown, who has hail many years experi- ence in all phases of poultry work. and who is well-known throughout the Province. The new company has already ordered some of the most T0009"! hatching equipment available and will ccrnmencc hatching operations in January, 1948. They will early have sufficient caDMlW to pro- duce at least 125,000 chicks the first year. and will be prepared to increase their hatching capacity fl the needs oi the industry and ser- vice to the public require its ex- pension. For some Iilflnd years past, farmers have imported several hundred thousand chicks each year from sources outside the pro- vince. partly because existing pro- vinoloi hstcheries have been un- able to supply sufficient chicks when needed.

Various protests have been rc- ceived from Eastern farmers urg- ing that the drawbacks be retained, but rwi-th reports from the Prairies indicating a spread o! the drought areas, it is considered unlikely the West will have much feed grain itself. The payments, amounting to 25 cents a bushel each on barley and wheat and l0 cents on oats, is to keep down the feeding cost to the Eastern fanmcr while guaranteeing s good price for feed to the West- ern producer. They also encourage output of livestock in the face of meat price ceilings which prevent the livestock producer from boost- ing his prices. The system is due to expire Jul! 31.

Soviet delegate Andrei A. Gromyko calmly raised his hand to defeat the resolution after abstain- iing throughout 10 preliminary paragraph-by-paragraph ballots. It was the 11th time in U.N. history that Russia has invoked the big power veto. Herschel V. Johnson, deputy American delegate, said the Soviet veto created a “grave situation" and called for immediate adjourn- ment of the Council to allow dele- gates to consult tl-ieir home gov- ernments. , ‘Grcmyko attempted to get the ‘ floor but the Council voted 8 to I to uphold the surprise American move for adjournment.
