TORONTO. Oct. ll --(OP) — The Canadian Congress of Labor took a verbal swing at Russian ag- gression today, voting decisively for a. strongly womied foreign-pol- icy resolution.

The 868 delegates at the eighth annual C.C.I... convention also land- ed a povcerful waliop on the Con- gress’ Communist-minded minority.

Despite bitter denunciation of the Marshal Plan and Canada's role in world affairs, the issue never really was in doubt. and when it came to the vote, the resolution was upheld by a margin of about 7 to 1. Biggest single group opposed to the anti-Russian state- ment was the fi-i-membcz- llriitcd Elcctrlcal Workers delegation.

The overall picture for the pota- to industry in the Province is far from discouraging and there is no‘ foundation for the pessimistic rumors which have been current during the past few weeks, one of the Island's largest growers and shippers told the Guardian yester- day.

In the first place, he stated, the damage caused by late blight was greatly exaggerated. The poorer growers. those who did not cultiv- ate too well and who “sklmped" with their spraying material. have received their reward with yields of approximately 75 bushels of small potatoes many of whloh are affected with rot. On the other hand, he said. the good growers, those "who hllled weli" and who sprayed conscientiously, have yields of approximately .150 bushels to the acre of good, clean. marketable potatoes not effected by rot.

Last year's Island potato crop on 42.000 acres, averaging 224 bushels to the acre. resulted in a yield of well over 9,000,000 bushels: this
