Graham Rogers, liaison officer of the Board of Trade, A. Waithen Gaudet, secretary of the Board of Trade. and the wives and girl friends of the members. Mr. Rankin, who was elected to his present office last June. briefly reviewed the history of the Junior Chamber. He stated it was originated in st. Louis in 1915, accepted in Canada in 1923, opened its national office in 1936. and now has 30.000 members throughout the Dominion. He also told the meeting two-t.hird's of the budget of the organisation is contributed by senior Chamba s and the Boards of Trade. In his address, which was brief and to the point, Mr. Rankin told the members they are learning today to do the job they must take over tomorrow when they enter the senior organizations. Two phases of the training which can not be over-emphasized are public speaking and pride in citi- zenship. Pride In Citizenship The speaker said that too often one finds Canadians who have no pride in the fact they are citizens of this great country. and sug- gested that if each person pres- ent took ten minutes a day to talk of the benefits of Canadianlsm. it would not be long before people talked readily and with pride of their great heritage. In concluding. Mr. Rankin sug- gested smote complete knowledge at the workings ' of the various governments. Municipal. Provin- cial and Dominion. would prove invaluable in the future to all present members of the Junior Chamber. The guest speaker was intro- duced to the gathering by Mr. Desbrlsay, and thanksyof the club were extended at the close of his address by President Jack Morris. Entertainment during the serving of dinner was provided by Les Alexander at the piano.

Coed-nlaht. Met!!! Clillltlnaa by the Rhool after said Problem of Fresh fish Discussed By Mr. Gorman Tho fishing industry itself is making it difficult for Prince Ed- ward Illand fish companies to extend the home market for fresh fish. contended Mr. Eugene Gor- man. chairman of the P. E. Fishermen": Loan Board and Dir- cctcr of Extension for St. Dun- stan's University during a busi- ness session at the Fisheries Con- ference here this week. Previous to Mr. German's re- marks, a Quebec delegate had stated that he had been served a fish plate on the A egwelt and that It was hardly it to eat. Others said they had run into the same experience. Mr. Gorman entered the dis- cussion to defend and explain the Provlnce'; position in the matter. He said that. while he regretted to have to say it. the Quebec de- legate might also find the sit- uation equally bad in the midst of a season when a supply of fresh fish should be obtainable. Part of the reason for this. Mr. Gorman said. were the "hard bar- gains" driven by the industry it- self. Elaboratlng on this point he stated that he had been told by restaurateurs and others in the Province that they were unable to buy local fresh fish in the sum- mer months for fear of retaliatory measures which might be directed against them. He said that he had been informed by these peo- pic that if they did not buy fresh fish from the large operators the year round. their supplies might be cut off during the winter months when local fresh fish is not obtainable. He referred to the fact that certain fish companies in Prince Edward Island are trying to ex- tend the home market for fresh fish. This is proving to be a difficult undertaking. Mr. Gorman cited his own experience in try- ing to supply fresh fish to Island hotels. He recalled having to meet the "high brass in this very hotel" to support the manager's successful efforts to bring fresh Island fish to pig patrons. Mr. Gorman submitted that there was little point lni the in- dustry criticizing bad fish where it found it. if the cause was even partly its own. Island Jersey May Have Set New lieciLril An Island Jersey cow in her nineteenth year may have set is new production record for animals her age when she finished a 365 day R.O.P. test with 11,163 pounds of 5.7 milk and a fat production of 647 pounds. Star's Silver Dollar is the lilllh producing animal owned by Mr. James Vlckerson of North River. She was bred by Mr. Harold Stead of Brackley but was the property of Mr. Edison 3. Mutch of North River when she was born. It has not been definitely as- certained whether or not the ani- mal's high production with the test; completed in her nine- teenth year. is a record for cows of this age. The records were made on twice-a-day milking. The cow's first record started when she was Just under two years of age and she finished with a test of 5.7 and 328 lbs. fat. As a three year old she on tered the Silver Medal class and the Gold Medal Class at six years of age. As a six year 015 she produced 702 lbs. of fat and nearly 12.000 lbs. milk. she had not been tested from the time she was a six Y9” 015 until she was started on the one she completed in her nineteenth yerlrlae "Jersey Breeder" which lists the record of the animal stated: PI: is indeed unfortun- ate that this good cow could not have been tested all her useful life, which has been a good On!- ” she would undoubtedly have made history for her owners and for her breed."

The soft-coal wage increase was granted a week ago but both it and the hard-ccai boost were to become effective Feb. 1. One early congressional reaction came from Senator John Spark- man (Dem.,Ala.). He said: "Bet- ter late than never. I wish the program could have been put into effect a long lime ago." Rationing Not Anticipated Asked whether rationing would be necessary as part cf.hia price order. Dicalla replied: ' "We-feel, and have discussed with people in the agriculture dc- partment. that there is a great sufficiency of concilnar goods in this country and we do not anti- cipate the need of rationing any time in the near Mum and possi- bly not at all unless the interac- itionnt situation should get much worse." . today that a new scale of mini- N.
