BRITISH FISHERMEN The British fishing industry employed some 22,000 fulltime fishermen at the beginning of 1961. The first deadline is April 30 —the day the Freight Rates Re- out almost $55,000,000 in subsi- dies since 1959 te cut certain freight rates. Indications are the govern- print proposed by the MacPher- son royal commission on trans- portation. Former Liberal Transport minister Lionel Chevrier asked Prime Minister Diefenbaker in the Commons Tuesday whether the government intends “at this session of Parliament’ to ex- tend the freight rates reduction act. “The government will make | an announcement in the House when it feels it is appropriate to do so,” replied Mr. Diefen- ker, | EFFECTIVE IN 1959 The act went into effect Aug. 1, 1959. It was designed to roll back the full effect of a 17-per- cent freight rate boost author- ized late in 1958. Under the act, $20,000,000 was put up to reduce freight rates for one year on goods carried at non-competitive rates, the so- called “captive traffic’ carried by the railways. The subsidy was extended twice—first for nine months at a cost of $15,000,000, then for a full year at a further cost of $20,000,000 Each time, it was pointed out that the rate reducing subsidy was being continued until the government has received and acted on the recommendations of the six-man royal c sion headed by Regina M. A, MacPherson. In the meantime, any new general freight rate increases | are banned under the govern- | ment - imposed “‘freeze’’ an- nounced in 1959, GRANTED ONE SHOT Another subsidy paid to the railways pending action on the MacPherson report cost $50,- 000,000 d was granted last year on a one-shot basis as an “interim payment related to” the recommendations of the MacPherson report. It was also designed to hold down any freight rate boost re- sulting from last year’s wage HOWLAN Andrew N.
