"What do you mean by that?" demanded Gerald angrily. the table before him. "It is proverb of our country." he answered quietly. "You see what is right. Mr. I-lavelock-but you will not do it." why not?" asked Patrick Wu burned ccurteously to the missionary. "Mr. James I do not think that Mr. Havelock is a fool-though he Is young. He dare not send for the gunboat. It would be folly. The country between here and Chung- king is in my hand. No message could get through.

"You're nothing but a brigand," began Gerald; then he saw the saw the warning lock in James' eyes. and changed his tone. "What on earth have you to gain by viol- ence. General? If you hold your hand.

"The sup- erior man." he said. "has neither anxiety nor fear. I shall be here a little before sundown for the money." . Gerald rose in his turn.

Mr. White as talking to the group as a discussion leader on a topic regarding the consumption of fish. other discussion leaders were Messrs. Loran E. Baker. Director of Inspection and Consumer Services and A.L. Collings. Montreal. Mr.'Whiie told the fishenner. that if they wanted to sell their product they would have to advert- lze it properly. He condom ” as futile the sympathy and statistical methods which had been used diir- ing the past year. He suggested that the fishermen values of fish. He recalled how the sale of liver jumped wllen medical men proscribed liver. to anemic pa- tients and stated that fish has far more medicinal qualities than liver. Products that are much harder to sell than fish have mushroomcd their sales to almost fabulous prices." he stated. Among the prod- ucts he ennumerated were tooth paste, soaps, antiseptic and tobac- co. Tobacco salesmen. he noted. ask- ed that their product. be bought because it was not as harmful as that of their cotnpetitors. He urged the delegates to sell themselves first and then by every means in their power try and sell the general public. A vigorous ad- vertizing campaign should t.rip.'ie China. the sale of fish the first year. be " stated. Up To Industry Mr. Loran Baker in his remarks told the delegates that it was up to the industry to advertize their pro- ducts. The Government would try to stimulate sales by providing in- formation to fcod editors and radio programs but would not take an active part in advertising. he stat- ed. The processing of a high quality product which reaches the consum- er at top grade was unanimously agreed upon as being one of the most effective means cf advcrtiz- ing the fisheries products. One Montreal man stated that on his way to the Conference he had ordered a fillet. on the carferry Abegweit which must have been three weeks old. He told the deleg- ates that to-urists. coming here. cer- tainly would not be inclined to eat fish if they received similar qual- ity products. Mr. Eugene Gcrman of the Ex- tension Department of St. Dun- st.an's University. stated that he was sorry to say it but the condi- tions regarding fresh fish here would not be very'much better in the middle of summer. He pointed out that local sup- pliers here had to fight an up- hill grind because they were tied in with big buyers who demanded that they be supplied with fresh fish the year round. He recounted his cwn experiences. incurred when selling fish when he would be coll- ed into the Charlottetown to talk with the top brass. Market In The U. During the first business session the delegates were urged to ad- vertize their fillets in the '.7iiit.ed' States by Mr. D. A. Doraii of Bos- ton. There is where you can do a job for increasing ycur sales. he stated. The U.S. A. can not pos- sibly produce enough fish to fill her own demand. Mr. Harrison urged that more at- mlschance. he does not pay. it will be a fight. It will be a massacre." He settled his fur hat. and raised I hand in salute before tuminil away. , With that ceremonial close of the interview something seemed to snap in Gerald I-lavelock's brain. He was cciiscious only of A swirling red mist. before his eyes through which loomed wu's sneering face; of the ccnviction that once again he had failed in R task to which he had set his hand. He whipped the pistol from his pocket and levelled it between Wu's shoulder-blades. "Two can play at shooting you know!" he snarled as he did so. Next moment. Patrick James. with a. speed incredible in a man of,his size and bulk. had flung himself across the table. and gripped Ger- ald'a wrist, twisting it savagely un- til the barrel of the pistol pointed to the ceiling.

(New York Titties service) LONDON. Jan. 25-Despite Corn- munist China's rejection of the tilted Nations ceasefire plan for Korea, British opinion was inani- festly still reluctant Monday to plunge deeper into controversy and conflict with the Peiping Govern- ment. by declaring China an ag- gresaor. Kenneth Younger. minister of state for foreign affairs, who was recently Britain's chief delegate to the United Nations, said in Shef- field this afternoon that the world nrganization's first duty was "to settle quarrels by peaceful means" and "this it is determined to do so long as any hope remains." one hopes, he added, "that the door is not yet closed." To declare China. an aggressor forthwith would be "unjustifiable." said the London Weekly spectator. "and it is hoped that the British Government will not yet approve such a step.” , There was certainly no belliger- ency in the Government's first re- actions to Peiping's rejection of the United Nations proposals for a ceasefire and negotiatio .

The Foreign Office spokes- man said that the United Nations plan rejected by Peiping "had gone the limit to meet. the Chinese point of view." BEATS MACHINE TIMARU. New zealand - (CPI - A. V.
