day boost. which Lewis recently negoiated with the industry.

Miners. whose pay was cut by the W.5.B. action from the expect- ed si8.20 for a basic minimum day to 517.85. refused to work. They took the stand the government had nullified their contract.

Lewis said his men wouldn't work unless they got the sl.90. But.

during the week-end President Tru summoned Lewis and Herr Moses. chief ' d t y negotiator, to the White House

and appealed for an end to the strike. '

Lewis then sent his district dir- ectors telegrams which said:

"It will require a reasonable time for review of attendant facts and the reaching of a decision.

"It is my opinion that our in- dustry should be operating during that period and that the best in-l terests of the mine workers and the public will be best served.

"I am therefore requesting an immediate resumption of operat- ions at all mines in all districts and I am urging each member of our,unlon to return to work at once. ."

The I is no official indication of how the pay issue will be resolved finally. The industryand the union jointly appcaied the wage board's decision that the full pay boost would jeopardize the country's

New Plant Expected To Cost Mwons

FREDERICTON, Oct. 2'? -(CP) --Construction of a new pulp and paper mill in York County is ex- pected to start before the end of this year, it was learned here to- night.

Ralph V. Limerick. Fredericton barrister. said the projected in- dustry will represent a capital in- vestment of ”sevcral millions" in New Brunswick.

A company known as Acadia Pulp and Paper Corporation has been incorporated through the legal offices of Mr. Limerick and Arthur McF. Limerick.

Mr. Limerick was not at liberty to disclose its principals. Nor was he free to say whether New Bruns- wick copital is dominant in the development.

Present plans call for con- struction of the mill in York County, Mr. Limerick said. lie added the site has been chosen and negotiations are under way for its purchase. The lawyer preferred not to disclose the exact site. Barring stumbling blocks, con- struction work should start "before the year is out," Mr. Limerick said. lie understood the new company has made arrangements to assure its supply of raw materials.

The mill will be engaged in the "ground wood process" of manu- facture. Mr. Limerick said. In its early stages it will turn out a semi-finished paper. Eventually, it "might" manufacture the finished product.

Mr. Limerick noted that quantit- ies of New Brunswick pulpwood now are shipped to British planks for processing. with the finished paper then transported to markets such as those in Australia. He said he was not suggesting that the -plant would be aiming for the Australian market, however. Formation of the Acadia Com- pany. and construction of the mill. had been in the discussion stage for a considerable time before in- corporation of the firm, Mr. Lime- rick said.

To Establish

Shortage Of Reefer Cars Is ileported

An extreme shortage of refriger- ator cars in the Province is noted by potato shippers who are faced with the problem of being unable to obtain cars to handle the heavy movement now reaching a season- al peak. Onc Charlottetown dealer said "there is nothing like enough in sight to handle the movement." Summerslde dealers state there are almost no cars available at a tlmg,.)vhen the..large. crop is wait- ing transportation to market.

Railway authorities admitted there is a. definite shortage of reefers but say officials here are doing everything possible to aile- viate the situation. Local railway- men have been in constant touch with mainland officials attempt- ing to obtain more of the cars for Island shippers. They state there is a shortage of rolling stock all over Canada and the present con- dition here is aggravated by the heavy shipment of wheat from the West. This ties up practically every available box car and leaves little stock to handle ordinary traffic.

Heavy Demand

Tn potato dealers the shortage is critical as at present there is a heavy demand for the potatoes and the prices are good.

There was a particularly heavy movement last week with upwards of 300 carloads having already left the Province by rail. water and truck up to that time. It is appar- ent to dealers that despite a con- siderably lower crop this year the shippers are not attempting to hold onto the potatoes hoping to receive higher prices later and the result is that this crop season has seen a greatly increased quantity being shipped early.

Illustration

A new illustration Station under the Dominion Experimental Farms will be established at Amherst Is- land, Magdalen Islands. according to word received last night from Mr. R. C. Parent, Superintendent of the Experimental Farm here. Mr. Parent has just returned from a visit to the Magdalena where he examined all possibilities before reaching a decision on the proposed site. His recommendation must be approved by Ottawa before definite announcements can be made.

It is believed posible that the new Illustration station will be under the jurisdiction of the Farm here. and if this happens there will be several experiments con- ducted. They will primarily be con- cerned with improving pastures. the use of fertilizers, principally lime and manures, and the bet- tering of local gardens;

Grlndstone Island. where thereis an Illustration Station at present, and Amherst Is-land have both be- tween 400 and 500 small farms. All the farmers are fishermen as well and it is believed they could great- ly improve their small farms if they received proper guidance and help.

The climate and the soil in the Magdalens are said to be very similar to this Province. However. the soil is more graveily as it is all

Threaterflr) Drop Hostages 50 Feet To Floor

Cl-lES'I'l)R. lll., Oct. 2'! -ra.p)- Convicts at Menard state Prison, scene of an uprising last month. seized a prison lieutenant and six guards as hostages in a new out- break of rioting late today.

Tonight the rebellious prisoners were in complete control of one of the prlson's four cell blocks. Warden Jerome F2. Munie called of! plans to storm the cell block with 60 armed guards after the rioting prisoners threatened to hurl the hostages off a 50-foot tier.

Twenty state policemen were at the scene, and at least 30 more were en route to the prison near this Mississippi River town 90 miles south of St. Louis.

Fears Mass Outbreak

Soon after the rioting begap at about 5 p. m. the warden express- ed fear the ccnvlcls might manage

a mass outbreak from the old prison. "They told us they were going

to get out and burn every build- ing here," Munie said. "And they could do it too."

Later the 363 prisoners in the east cell calmed down. and the warden expreacd belief that plans for a mass break had been foiled.

”They planned to grab the guards and the keys and go over the wall," he said. ”We moved too fast for them. Now they are confused and want to wait until daylight."

No immediate demands were made by the rioters. "We don't in- tend to do anything until morn- ing," one convict leader shouted to Munie. ”Then we will talk about it."

"We're just. sweating it. nut," Munie said. "We're not going to endanger these officers lives."

Have No Firearms

The convicts were armed with stool legs and clubs. The warden said no firearms had fallen into their hands.

The seized guards and the lieut- enant. Loren Stewart of Falrfieid. Ill., were lined up on the top tin: of the prison. 50 feet above is con- crete ramp. They were stripped of all valuables and their clubs taken from them. The guards at Menard ordinarily carry no firearms.
