POTATO BOARD HEAD CONFIDENT A?

--At a special meeting of the P. E. 1. Potato Dealers Associa- tion held in Summerslde yester- day afternoon to discuss the gen- eral situation in regard to the potato indusiry. Mi‘. D. A. Mac- Donald, chairniaii oi the Potato Marketing Board, who was pre- sent on invitation of the Dealers Association, told some thirty-five dealers that the board has good reason to hope that within the next two months Ihs-_v will be able to move the balance of the potato crop in l’.E.l.

in reply to a question from Mr. Austin A. Scales, who coni- mended Mr. MacDonald for his success in securing the money paid to Island farmers under the present agreement with the Fed- eral Government. Mr. MacDonald said that only by a substantial reduction in planting acreage can there be any reasonable assurance of proper returns for another year. But he added that it was is little too early to prophesy what would happen until some in- formation is available on what Maine and plant. H " ‘In beginning

his remarks to the meeting Mr. MacDonald said he did not think this was the PFDPEI‘ Place to reply to some of

Mr. Mac- Donald said he wanted to make it plain that any action of the board taken while he was head of the board would always be de.

"I want the public to know," he said, "that this advlaary com- mittce composed oi these dealers did its very best throughout the season to have the policies of the selling agency operate in a man- ner that would be most satisfac- tory to all.“

the amount of control which the board has over the potato industry, and of the effect the selling agency has on the trade.

He said that buyers at the other and have no say in who they get poatoes from. and this was disturb- ing the mentality of the trade, and could upset the volume of potatoes that would move.

"In addition to reports that the Ontario dealers do not look fav- orably on the Island set-up." he said. "we are also faced with the. volume of new potatoes from us. coming into the market."

Referring to a resolution passed by the board advising dealers and producers that until further notice no export sales of Island seed Doi- atoes for 1954 production will be sanctioned unless the price of pay- ment waa approved by the board. he said he supported this resolution because he felt that this particular set-up was a wise one.

He said he had since learned that a sale had been made con- trary to this resolution and he announced that he would seek further information on this mat- ter at the next meeting of the board. '

Referring to reports of a pleb- iscite among farmers on the de- sirability of continuing the Mar- keting Bcard. he said. "I am a little fearful that if a plebiscite comes out it will not come out with the truth. the whole truth. and nothing but the truth, and that it will have a tendency to be disguised in its form."

"For instance.” he said. "should the plebiscite ask the farmers to- day. ‘do you want a marketing Board?‘ I wonder if the farmer who says ‘yes’ realizes the power that is controlled by a msJoi-ity of the 10-man board‘!
