Ontario Fruit and Vege- table Branch. and Hank Perken of the Ontario Marketing Board. The party of three made a short tour of the Experimental Farm on Friday afternoon escorted by Mr. B. F. Tlnney, assistant to the sup- erintendent in charge of poultry. The visitors, who were accompan- ied during the day by Premier J. Walter Jones. Minister of Agricult- ure W. F. Alan Stewart and Ii- lustration Station Supervisor WN. Black, were particularly interested in the rotational potato experi- ments. The group then visited Mr. S-G. Peppin, officer in charge of seed potato certification; in the Science Building. Production and market- ing methods were thoroughly dis- cussed and the visitors were very much impressed with the quality of island potatoes. They said a prem- ium of from 15 cents to 30 cents per bushel was being paid at pres- ent for Island potatoes over the others available on the Ontario market. Potato Farina Vhited A tour of potato farms included a visit. to Mr. Russell White's at Hunter River where they inspected an_d discussed the full line of potato machinery including spraycrs. dig- gers. graders and plows. At Hunter River they also inspected a potato warehouse and examined the con- struction. insulation and ventilation Iethods used on the Island. Mr. Kennedy was particularly in- terested in the fruit farm of Mr. Malcolm Reeves at Southport with some 30 acres of bearing orchard. A fruit farmer himself, the Ontario Minister of Agriculture slid that this orchard was as good as any- thing he had seen in his life. The three visitors spent Friday evening at the Bunbury Farm of Premier Jones" where they viewed the livestock and discussed depart- mental affairs. Ontario of Srockviile said the bills were similar to ones passed recently in cities across Canada. The women were arrested as they got off a ferry boat anmuta from Morriatown, run, early today.

Scotia Regiment, first Canadian infantry outfit to embark on active over- seas service during the Second World War, held a. reunion here today. It was nearly l0 years ago at. this sprawling camp on o, cold, rainy winter night when the regi- ment was awakened. Groggiiy, it boarded a Halifax-bound train and headed overseas 30 hours later - Dec. 22, 1939. The outfit had 3'15 men killed. Others still are missing. Most West Novas were Maritimers but its ranks contained men from Ontario and Manitoba. The wartime padre, Rev. LI‘. Wilmot of Winnipeg, said "This is a. great moment in my life." The men recalled the storming of Sicilian beaches, the fight. through Campobasso, across the Malia River, the Hitler and Gothic Lines. They talked of the inch-by- inch crawl through Ortom; and 1a. tor the Ijsell River crossing in Holland. Today the men organized a reg- imental association and named Veterans Minister Gregg — a for. mer commanding officer - honor- ary president. A memorial service and parade were attended by several military and Government officials. These included Lin-Col. A.W. Rogers of Charlottetown.

W. H. Needler. Assistant Deputy Minister of Fisheries, said here over the week-end that he llODBd commercial fishing operat- ions would Kel under way soon at the newly-discovered scallop bed in Northumberland Strait off Wood Island, P.1d I. Dr. Needler. who is a specialist in Atlantic fisherlm, chgrgctgrlzgd the new find as "a promising com. mercial proposition" and said he was optimistic over further similar discoveries by vessels ovmcd or un- der charter by the department. “We have found it advisable to lower the size limit for scallops in this and other beds" the Assistant Deputy Minister said. “This can be done without seriously imperilllng the continuity of the fishery and at times is the best course in view of the heavy mortality of scallops in the gulf. Other P.E.I. Beds Dr. Needler recalled that in past years there was commercial fishery of scallops on a small scale off Al- berion and Georgetown in Prince Edward Island and that there may be new beds in other waters close in the Province. Asked if scallops. like they say about ‘gold. “are? where you find them". Dr. Needle: said it wasn't as indefinite as that. "We have an idea where to look for scallop beds in making surveys of the. bottom." he said. "There's no use looking for them in mud and experience tells our crews the most likely places to look." Government personnel was in a preferred position to make new discoveries such as the Wood Is- lands scallop bed on account of the records kept and the greater ex- perience of the workers. In many cases Dr. Needler said. commercial fishermen just hadn't time in the course of their work to look for new beds of shellfish and to ac- curately chart their locations. ‘iDf course we mustn't exaggerate the importance of this new find in Northumberland Strait," he said. “On the other hand. we bear in mind that scallops are in the same clans as lobster, oyster or salmon inasmuch as there's always a ready and a good market for all that are landed. Demand always equals or exceeds the supply." Largest scallop fishery in the Maritlrnes. Dr. Needle: mentioned. was off Digby where some I5 to 40 vessels are engaged in the scallop trade.’ "Naturally we are highly pleased with this scallop find in Northum- bcrland Strait which is the best find yet made in those waters. if there were an established scallop fishery there, we would develop skilled people to find them. Since there is not as yet such a. fishery l1! the gulf waters, the government has got into the discovery line. It is not a simple matter since there are great fluctuations in the quantities of scallops from year to year. We be- lieve the temperature of the water is an important factor in increases and also mortality of scallops. Our research along these lines is con- tlnuing."

Cruise iinei Noronic Now Pile 0i Ebris Many Passengers Trap- ped ln Cabins; All Crew Members Es- cape. By R. J. ANDERSON TORONTO. Sept. i8 — (CF)- The cold, official figures: 118 bodies in the morgue, 87 persons unaccounted for, 47D known sur- vivors; total passengers and crew 684 But the statistics meant noth- ing. In the submerged hull of the fire-swept S. S. Noronic tonight were other bodies-perhaps 50 or 60, firemen said. No figure was final. it was almost certain that the death toll of the worst ship fire on the Great Lakes in the century would reach 200. It was certain too that many of the dead never would be identified. Today divers searched some parts of the burned hull and re- ported no bodies found. There were many parts of the ship still not gearched and probably the number of bodies there would not be known until the hull is pump- ed dry in 10 days or so. At the emergency morgue in the Canadian National Exhibition grounds relatives fingered melted jewelry and pieces of clothing, seeking to identify the broken. burned bodies. As the night wore on other names were added to the list of identified dead. In 15 Minutes in bits and pieces came the story of the holocaust that in 15 ll1lll1li€5 early Saturday swept the 36-year-old Canada Steamship Lines cruise ship from stem to stern as she lay in her slip, leav- ing only a blackened, twisted hull resting on-the floor of Toronto harbor. The cause of the fire that left the 6,900-ton vessel a total loss was unknown immediately. C.S.L. officials said it broke out in a lower-deck cabin as the Noronic. crowded on its last lakes cruise of the season, lay overnight in its Queen's Quay slip. Somo survivors said it started in a broom closet, near the C deck bar. The C.S.L. issued a passenger list containing 5ll names late Sat- urday and said all of the crew of 171i escaped. Within 15 minutes of its out- break at 2.38 a.m. EDT, the black- hulled vessel, a short while be- fore a scene of gay cabin parties. was aflame. its white superstruc- ture blazing with sheets of fire that scorched the high "Canada Steamships Line" sign atop the wharf '40 feet distanton the star- board side. The C.S.L.‘s lake ship Cayuga in an adjoining slip caught fire at the bow. All that was left of the $5,000.- 000 Noronic was a mass of debris. down by the stern in 2B feet of water. Within seconds after the fire broke out. the IiGZ-foot stee1-hull- ed ship, built at Port Arthur in 1913, was a wild scene. Men and women, many of them in night at- tire, rushcd along the decks seek- ing safety either by jumping into the cold water on the port side or by leaping to the wharf while the ship's crew fought the flames. Most of the dead were trapped in their cabins but some perli (Continued on Page 5 Col. S) N. s.“ woman Killed In Fall From Car TRURO, N.S., Sept. ll —- (C?) -Mr|.

Noronic Captain Tells Of Ballle To Save flip By FORBES RHUDE Canadian Press Staff Writer TORONTO. Sept. l8 — (CP) -— Captain William Taylor. master of the fire-swept Noronic, told last night the story of a fierce and hopeless battle to save his ship and passengers. His own face scorched and his right hand in bandages, the 65- year-old mariner mourned the disaster, and said sorrowfully: “I had hoped to end my career without loss of life." He rested in bed at the home of a friend. Captain H. W. Web- ster, recovering from exhaustion. as he went over the horror of Saturday's pre-dawn holocaust. Here is his story: "I was just entering my'cabin on A-deck when a wheelsman came and told me there Wlg a fire on C-decln. - "I told him to go put in an alarm from the dock, if one had not already been put in from there, though all I expected to find was a little smoke. “I turned and ran down the stairway: amidships to C-deck. When I arrived there was so much smoke I couldn't go aft of the stairway. Then I knew it was a lot more than a minor blaze. "I hollered 'fire‘ to people on the dock as I proceeded through the ship. I cut over to the port side and went out on deck and pulled down a hose and opened it. "I threw water and made as much noise a; possible to arouse people. and one of the crew and several other people came and helped me. We broke open win- dows, but there were no passen- gers in those rooms. "We found _a woman who had fainted and carried her to the deck below so that she could be carried out through the gangway from the engine-room. "The fire at this time was aft to the mldships door and we did our best to (put out the fire in. that section. "But a room would go ‘pfft’ like that, the windows would blow out and the whole thing would be ablaze. “I ran forward to the bow where mate Gerry Wood was putting people over the side with a rope. "I went back and fought as long as I could on that side and then went down to D-deck. The rooms of crew and passengers there were open with no one in them. “Members of the crew kept hol- lering for me to get out of there as the fire was coming down. I visited the crew's quarters aft and went down through the engine- room and from there out to the dock. "I asked people there, ‘are you sure every one is out‘ and de- cided that they could not be. _I xucnt back to C-deck and it was ablaze all the way through. It was hot there. "So far as humanly possible I covered every part of the ship I could get to. to make sure every one was aroused. “Throughout, members of the crew were doing their jobs as I011 as they could and 015M188" (Continued on Page 5 Col. i) 'Atlantic Pact Powers Reach Agreement On‘ Defence Set - up By JOl-IN M. IIIGBNWER WASHINGTON, Sept. 18 --(AP) -— Twelve determined Western Powers shouldered their mutual military responsibilities Saturday under the Atlantic Pact. Reports of mounting Russian armed strength painted a sombre back- ground for their decisions. ' The foreign ministers of the Ai- lantic Alliance countries, meeting for the first time as a council. or- dered immediate steps taken to draft "unified defence plans" for the entire North Atlantic area. While the ministers met. two com- mittees of the United States Sen- ate reported formally that Russia has more than 5.000.000 men under arms and appears to be carrying out a "deliberate" policy of add- ing to its military strength. The foreign relations and armed services committees of the Senate. which have been meeting joint- ly on the Truman administration's proposed 8,314,000,000 foreign arms aid bill, gave the appraisal of Soviet power in recommending passage of the measure. Both the treaty move and the arms bill were part of the strategy to dis- courage any Russisn aggressive ambitions. In a formal report to the Senate, the two committees said Russia has stepped up her military budget by 10 per cent over last year, increased her troop strength in Germany from 70.000 to 100,000 men. and has been carrying out "security measures" along Russia's bor- ders and those of her satel- liter. The Senate begins debate on the arms bill probably tomorrow. The talk is expected to last sev- eral days. iOontilllldelfagellCd-fl Five Other Countries Take Similar Action LONDON, Sept. 18 -— (C?) Great Britain tonight cut 30 13 per Cent off the value of the pound sterling in a last-ditch bid to spur her exports and case her dollar crisis. Five other countries de- valued af the same rate. Up to now it has taken $4.03 to buy a pound at the official rate Under the new rate it will takl only $2.80. Thus it will requlrt fewer dollars to buy a pound‘: worth of goods-and Britain ex pects that to start her ‘export! rolling into dollar-area countries al a new, fast pace. Five other countries also cut thi value of their money in terms o: dollars. South Africa cut he: pound from $4.03 to $2.80, like Britain. Australia dropped he: pound from $3.22 to $2.24. India, a third country in thu sterling area, reduced the rupee from 30.225 cents to 21. Denmark made the dollar worth ‘$90714 kroner instead of 4.79901 Norway made the dollar worth 7.14286 kroner instead of 4.96278. Sir Stafford Crlpps announced the British decision in a broad- cast at 9:15 P.M. (5:15 RM. ADT). To Free Market. Price The cut, in effect, brought the pound down to the free-market rate-it has been selling for $2.80 on the Swiss market, but only the official $4.03 rate was recognized by Britain in international trade. Sir Stafford disclosed that the decision to devalue had been made before he and Foreign Secretary Bevin left London August 31 to at- tend the Brltlsh-Arnerlcan-Cana- dian monetary talks in Washing ton. He said: “We did not then announce ii because we wanted to tell out American and Canadian friend! first and to inform all the mem- bers of the Commonwealth, and also because it takes a little time to arranfli! these matters."
