Aug. 11- (AP) the world into rich farmlands, a Pennsylvania geographer said to- ay. Dr. J. R. Smith. professor em- eritus of economic geography at Columbia University. said Cali- fornia, Australia and Israel are areas most likely to profit from the large-scale use of desalted sea- water. Addressing the nth Interna- tional Geographical C o n g r e s s. smith. of Warthmore, Pa., said researchers at Harvard and Mass- achusetts Institute of Techno- logy have developed a desalting process which costs only "a frac- tion" of previous methods. The experimenters have de- veioped a filtering membranes made of coal tar and petroleum products which Smith said can desaif. l.000 gallons of seawater at an electric expenditure of 20 kilawatfzs, compared with 100 kilowatts for the next best methods. Smith said the process might save the city of Los Angeles and other Southern California com- munities the treuble of getting their drinking water from the Colorado River via a 20o.m11e pipeline that goes over 3, 1509. foot mountain. To Establish - Traffic Control By Motorcycle Efforts at controlling traffic will . take a new turn here shortly as a result of a City Council decis- ion to call for tenders for the purchase of a motorcycle for Fo- llce use. Chief Charles MacArthur told the Council that he had two men on the Force capable of driving the machine. The Council also announced that this year to pay the loan. but in the meantime it was stated that the cost of the loan meant a saving to the city in view of the present condition of the bond market. Actually the overdraft will not go beyond 0600.000. The meeting yesterday was held at 9:30 in the morning as Mayor I. D. Stewart said that a dinner in the evening to the vis- iting Ministers of Agriculture and theiopenlng of Old Home Week precluded the holding of either afternoon or night meetings. Councillor F. J. Storey, chair- man of the Streets Committee. said that ll men had been laid off from the street sweeping crew. The reason for the action, 3 he said, was that the new auto- matic sweeper would be in action within a week or 10 days.

In June and July. enough would- be pilots and navigators offered themselves to let the R.C.A.F. breathe easy for the first time this year. Figures for July won't be made public for several weeks. The army in July is reported to have lost at least 200 more men through discharges and deaths than it took in through the re- cruiting offices. This would drop its strength down to around 49,- 000 and probably will increase pressure for enlisting women on a full-time basis.

F. C. Bell. Minis- ter of Agriculture for Manitoba, in speaking at a Government dinner here last: evening. Held at the Charlottetown Ho- tel in honour of the visiting Agri- culture Ministers and Deputies, there was a large attendance of both sexes. Mr. Bell's speech was preceded by brief addresses of Wei- come from I-lis Honour Lieutenant Governor T. W. L. Prowse. Premier J. Walter Jones, and His Worship lvfayor Stewart. Hon. C. C. Baker. Minister of Agriculture for Priilcc Edward Island, presided. After expressing ills warm ap- prcciation of the hospitality shown the party both in New Brunswick and this Province, Mr. Bell said the conference had given the visi- tors ”quite an insight into what you are endcavorlng to do ill this Island." Meeting now in their fourth an- nual gathcrlng. he said the group has become ”quite a family unit." 'I at least have broadened my sights and becoillc one of the. party which believes that Canada comes bcforp Provrilccs -- that the welfare of the people as it Wll0lf' is paramount." he added. "We realize that whatever affects you also affects us." stressing the food problems in other parts of the world, Mr. Bell said these problems presented a 'great cllailotlge to Canadian agri- culturr-. ”At our conference. one of the main subjects of discussion has been how we shall rnnscrve the soilinovdcr thatit might pro- duce lts maximum.

The speaker briefly reviewed the development of tho 'Prairio Pro- vinces and clted some interesting excerpts in this connection. Warmly Welcomed "We are proud that you have chosen Canada's smallest Province in which t.n hold your 1952 meet- ing." Lieutenant Governor Prowse assured the visitors. "Particular- ly so when we feel that our Pro- vince is at its loveliest." He hop- ed the visitors would see some- thing, not only of "the bounty of olir red soil and the superior quality of oilr cattle." but of the Island's unspoiled scenic beauty as well. Premier Jones referred to the island as being "landscaped by nature." The main thing. how- ever, he said.
