The Charlottetown member who last year made proposals regarding the sale of beer and wine in summer hotels said he was hlitzed- with letters follow- ing his presentation in the House. An analysis of these he said made very interesting reading. Some of the letter praised him while others condemned such a move. There were others who would have the Island made completely dry. Mr. Maclsaac said he could not see where a return to pro- hibition days would be desir- able. He recalled that rum at that time could be obtained for as low as $5 a gallon and there was no difficulty for anyone who Wished, to obtain it. MAKES DISTINCTION The Charlottetown member between temperance and total abstinence. He said he had been taught temperance in his home and in his church and did not “take anything stronger that a cup of tea” until he was 29.

He said the aims of, organized labor among many other things peace and freedom coupled with security for all peoples.

The Charlottetown member in speaking on industry in a broad sense, said much could be done to improve consumer trade inf greater care were taken in the packaging and preparation of agricultural products.

The speaker noted that great strides had taken place in the marketing of fish during recent years. The latest of these he observed was shredded codfish. As a further advancenient in the marketing of fish, Mr. Mac- Isaac suggested that fillets could be\pre cooked and put in pound or ‘half pound packages. TOURIST INDUSTRY More could be done for the tourist industry, Mr. Maclsaac thought. He noted the tremen- shown in tourist traffic to the Island during the past few years and estimated that the industry is well over a $5,000,000 a year business. More and better ac- commodations were suggested by the Charlottetown member. In regard to the coming elec- tion, Mr. Maclsaac said Russia had its iron curtain and China its bamboo curtain but “we have a much stronger curtain than either of these two. I refer to that flimsy curtain at the polling booth which represents our bulwark between us and tyranny.” Square. ‘ On a subsequent visit to the Highways Department‘ he had been assured that “demolishing” the Square had never been in- tended, on the contrary officials there had told him that it was the government’s intention to plant _more trees and landscape the area. ‘ ‘ Interviewed last evening, Mr. White declared that there was an urgent necessity for direct ac- cess to the new block of Provin- cial government offices in what is now known as “The Highways Building.” The Department was concerned with providing accommodation for the thousands of cars that bring passengers on business to these offices, he stated. “Parking facilities for govern-- ment employees is a secondary consideration,” he said, but not- ,cd that “every car that finds a ‘place off the street is one more out of the way.” if approved by the government the suggested driveway would be sufficiently wide to Park a num- ber of vehicles, the Deputy-M1n- ister stated, adding that the Board of Tradc’s suggestion would be submitted for govern-, mental consideration, assoon as possible, A.

The Minis- , ter spoke briefly before the con- — clusion of the Draft Address. In regard to the 80 per cent noted had taken exception to this clause. Among these was the Canadian Federation of Agricul- ture. Quoting from the Farm Radio Forum report issued by the Fed- eration of Agriculture, it was seen that the Federation would prefer a support clause‘ which would provide for parity prices as they wererelated to cost of production. YEAR TO YEAR BASIS The Federation opinion wen-t ‘ on to say that any average taken over a ten year I, period that has no reference to increased cost of production would be of little benefit to farmens. Mr. Cullen stated that the benefits of the Act would depend entirely upon its administration. He said an advisory .Board has been named to provide informat- ion for the Stabilization Board who in turn advises the Minister : HON. MR. CULLEN who brings the matter before the Governor General in Council. He said the only part of the bill over which Parliament has jurisdiction -is the 80 per cent fea- ture. \, ‘ . Replying to Opposition Leader Bell’s previous remark in the House that “Gardiner voted for the Bill,” Mr. Cullen expressed no surprise at this since Gardiner .- Declcires World Leadership I Must Come From The U.S. A.

Professor Hodgson was speak- ing on “Whys and Hows of For- eign Relations -in the United States." The guest speaker was in- troduced by George Scantlebunry, executive vice-president of the Junior Board of Trade. At the conclusion of his ad- dress Mr. Hodgson was thanked on behalf of the Board by Wil- .mer Blanchard and presented with a copy of the Jaycee Pic- torial Diary by Walt Wheeler," president of the Board.

Khrushchev took over Thursday as premier of the Soviet Union, replacing Nikolai ‘A. Bulganin. The unexpected action placed Khrushchev in a position compar- able to that occupied by Stalin. Diplomats in the galleries gasped in astonishment when Marshal Klemenrti Voroshilov told the Supreme Soviet that the Co 1- munist party first secretary would be the next chairman of the council of ministers. The 1,- 378 deputies at the joint session of thg two houses burst into a storm of applause. Contrary to normal practice for a Soviet leader, Khrushchev did not join in the applause for him- self, but stood by with bowed head until it subsided. Then he clenched his hands above his head in a salute to the deputies. Khrushchev urged adoption of his plans-to albolish machine-trac- tor stations and turn over agri cultural machineny to collective farms. " ” STRESSES AGRICULTURE He emphasized agriculture in the 150-minute speech in which he pleaded, among other things for more animal manure. “The more cows, the more manure, the more the crops,” Khrushchev told the house. “We will conquer capitalism with a. high level of work and a higher s t a n d a r d of living,” Khrushchev asserted. Bulga-nin’s resignation had been expected. As the joint session op- ‘ened, he surrendered the post he ‘obtained February, 1955, ‘when Georgi M. Malenkov lost it.

But the joint session which made Khrushchev head of the Soviet Union in name as well as in fact ended after three hours and 38 minutes with no further action. The two houses—the council of the union and the council of na- tionalities — will meet today to hear discussion on Khrushchev’: agricultural proposals. It appeared, h o w e v e r, that there would have to be_ another joint session Saturday. This one would hear Khrushchev’; choice of cabinet ministers and Gro- myko’s report on testing of nu- clear weapons. NEW POST LIKELY It seemed likely Bulganin, now 63, would be given a job in Khrus‘hchev’s cabinet, possibly that of deputy premier. Bulganin held many important posts in his long career, which began after he revolution as a member of e Bolslhevik secret police. Un- der Stalin he was a deputy pre- mier and defence minister. Bulganin was the lesser half of the B and K team which cut a wide swath in "world politics after Maleukov stepped down as pre- mier in 1955. The two travelled far — to Asia, Yugoslavia, Eng- land, Poland and ’ elsewhere—as travelling salesmen for Soviet communism. ~ The white-bearded Soviet politi- cian's name was attached to doz- ens of propaganda letters abroad pushing-Soviet aims and pilicy. Bulgan-in’s decline was fore- shadowed by events of last spring when he appeared to have had a lukewanm a t tit u d e towards Iflh-rushchesvis removal _,of the so- called “anti - party" group -from -the l1ierdrch3y—Malenkovv, ‘V.

Stalin assumed the premiership during the war, al- though previously he had con- fined himself to the non-gdvern- mental post of general secretary of the Communist party. After Stalin died in 1953, Malenkov held both posts, but briefly.

By adding the Soviet premier- ship» to his other offices, he has destroyed the myth of “collective leadership” in the Kremlin. Khrushchev barged his way to the goal on which his glittering eye-s had been fastened at least since the death of Josef Stalin, and perhaps long before. Where Stalin presented to the world a personal picture of cold enmity and resolution, Khrush- chev is matnly-sided. One day he is the benevolent, avuncular neigh- bor, smiling’ broadly, cocktail in hand. The next day he lashes out with furious denunciation and threats, and prophesies of doom for Western, “ruling circles.” POTATO POLITICIAN He manipulates a political change of pace that not only var- ies acceleration but also darts sideways and up and down. En- dowed with the shrewd-ness of peasant ancestors and schooled among the Old Bolsheviks, he may well be a more dangerous man than Stalin.

' Some potato. Khrushchev did-n’t hesitate to downgrade Stalin's memory when his own star reached the ascendant. And in only a few years he became far better known to the West than Stalin ever was.

Khrushchev has entertained 1 procession. of Western newspaper men, and none fai'led.to get a juicy story. He has a way of rub- bing his right hand in a circular motion on his fuzzy dome, with he is asked a difficult question. This is hardly t-he picture of a ruthless tyrant. Yet Khrushchev is the same man who is blamed for the death of thousands when he was Stalin’s hatchet man in the Ukraine during the Second World War.‘ . Sudden Death Yesterday Of W. V.
