The United Insurgency Fund for

Britain, Mr. MacMillan said, had men on the directorate from vic- toria. to Halifax who represented the business brains of Canada. It was because of this fact, he said. that the organizers of the Fund felt assured it would "go across with 100 per cent success."

Stresses Need

Mir. MacMillan said the need of the people of Britain for food and clothing was, perhaps, greater now then at any time in the past. Generous Canadians by the thous- ands from coast to coast had been contributing to Britain's relief but, unfortunately. had been doing it through as many as 3.500 little organisations. Lack of cp-crdin- sted effort had. to a large extent. nullified their good intentions since there was t-emendo ex- pense involved in so many diversi-

fied efforts. Moreover, the food’ sent to Britain under such condi- . ;

tions had no efficient distributing organization at the points of des- tinatiori.

It was the intention of the Dm- ergency hind to induce as many organisations to co-ordinate all their food relief to Britain through the United Emergency Flllld so that the expense of sending from ten to twenty million dollars worth of food and clothing to Britain should not amount to more than five per cent.

Cornmends Campaign

Premier Jones said he was sure the csrmpalgn was a worthy one and that the people of Prince Ed- ward Island would heartily sup- port it. At the suggestion of the Premier, Lleut.-Col. W. W. Reid agreed to meet Mr. MacMlilan this morning for the purpose of form- irig a small committee to do the preliminary work of organizing in the Province.

Present at, the meeting were His Excellency the Most Reverend James Boyle. Bishop of Charlotte- town: the new. J. ‘r. Ibbott, rec- tor of St. Paul's Anglican Church: His Worship Mayor B. Earle Mac- Donald. Mr. Justice C. J. Tweedy. and representatives from all serv- ice clubs and social organizations in the City.

Su-mmerside was represented bv Mavor J. I. Arnett. Judge Lloyd Lewis. Messrs. P. Ci. Clark. W. H. Hayward. and David Lldstone.

CAIRO. May 21 - (AP) -—Arnb Legionnaires tonight hemmed in Jewish troops fighting a last ditch battle in a. IO-acre area of Jerus- alem's old walled city and turned their howitzer-s on Jewish posi- tions outside the walls.

In a. determined bid to crush Jewish resistance in Jerusalem, the British-trained Legionnlrires from Trans-Jordan shelled Jewish lines on Mount Scopus and Mount Zion an Associated Press dispatch said.

The 400 Jewish troops on Mount Scopus were given this choice- surrender or be destroyed. They had entrenched near the Hades- ‘ sairliospitsI-mnd 1 the-nebrewl-flhfl versity.

A communique from Amman, capital of Trans-Jordan, said the shelling silenced the Jewish posts in both the university and hospital areas and the Jews asked to sur- render to the International Rod Cross.

Arab shells rocked Mount Zion in the vicinity of the Dormition Church and Crusader Hall where the Lest Supper was believed held.

Ara-b artillery jarred all Jeru- salem in the fourth day of the battle for the wailed- city, dis- patches said.

The anchor of the Jewish line was the Belt Yaacov Synagogue. Troops dug in there were making a stand where Jews have worship- bed for 700 years and two earlier

To be known as Gulf Broad- casting Co. l..td., the ccrrnrpany is qompoged of a group of business. men of Summerside and vicinity. The studio will be in the Lidstono building on Water street over Btedmanu store and the trans- mitting buildlng and tower will be located on the Read property near Reed's corner, two miles from town.

Silmmerside this had no redid station since CHGS. owned by R11‘. Holman Ltd. closed down- pemianentiy on March 3i of“! twenty-five years opoiltivli-

Farm Activities Reviewed By Deputy Minister Shaw

Mr. W. R. Shaw, Deputy Mlnjgtgr 0f Agriculture, reports that fir-gr, Sordinss this season are m/uch later than nonnlii years. For the last five year period first aeedings have taken place from the ins’. week of April until nrmmfl use Will-h 0f Mily. All evidences DOlXllt to first scedings this year beingt from two to three weeks later. Thig does not mean however, tirat grain seedings will not be com- pleted at an earlier period than some of these other years.

For instance in 1917 there was a favourable seeding period around the second week in May, but subsequently cold, wet weather cct in and in some instances oats were sown as late as June 25th. From such late seedings a mar- vellous crop of seed grain was harvested, due chiefly to the flric growing weather which follower! throughout the season. With warm weather within ihe next week or two the great bulk of the grain will be sown.

rDairy Production

The element of pasturage and clover production decides to a very great extent the volume of dairy production in the Province. In a great many cases cattle heye come through t-he winter in ex- tremely poor condition and ft would take some time on pasture to bring them back to a strong producing position.

Creamery rot/urns since the first of the yrear show a recession r-f 6,5 pm- ccllt reg compared With the sarrnc period in I047. Those figures become nil the more serious in light of the fact that the product- ion in 194d and 1947 was gradually lower than that of ‘i945.
