The annual meeting of the Prince cmnty Federation of Agriculture in snmmcrslde last evening unani- mcusly approved a resolution call- mg .'or an early meeting between me P.El Federationot Agricul- mpg and the Federal members of parliament to discuss the matter of potato tariffs.

The resolution. moved by Eldon pnimmond and supported by R. A, Profltt. said that the threat of Potato imports from United States is a continual danger to the economy of the Canadian pot- ato tamer. and It was felt that efforts of groups interested in the matter have not received much wnsideratlon.

oTHEIl RESOLUTIONS

Another resolution approved by the meeting. asked the CBC to consider reducing time spent in

giving egg reports on the noonday farm market reports. and give ex-

tra time to market reports on other hrsnches of, agriculture. The resol- ution commended the CBC for val- uable information which served as a guide to producers in merchand- ising their produce. but felt that the egg reports were unnecessarily detailed in some respects. and that some of the allotted time could be allocated to market reports on some other items of farm interest.

in dealing with resolutions ap- proved by the Queens County Fed- eration of Agriculture. the meet- ing, after considerable discussion. divided on a tie vote. on the mat- ter of unemployment insurance on a voluntary basis for farm em- ployees. with about half the mem- ber: present abstaining from in- dicating their opinions on the mat ter. .

of the members present. and most of the discussion on these was de- voted to a resolution on agricul- tural extension work in which the government was crlilsod tor not giving more attntion to this work. Discussion on the matter suggest- ed that it was pointless to set up the organisational machinery and establish offices in which they could not maintain , . It was,suggested that the govern- ment give attention to the matter of salerles and the maintenance of qualified persons In this im- portant work.

Others expressed the opinion that two or three extension work- ers should be employed in each county. and said that the tarmerg were not getting the most out of the agricultural services because the government -was unable to keep agricultural representatives long enough for the farmers to get to know them.

SPEAKERS

The meeting was addressed by .I.L. Dewar. provincial secretary of the Federation. who spoke on the work of the urganization, and urged in greater participation oi farmers in the matter of memes- ship and the use oi the Feder- ation as nn organized voice repre- sentlng all phases of agriculture.

Mr. Archie Johnstone. past pres- ident of the Queens County Feder- ation made a report on a recent Federation of Agriculture confer ence in Ottawa-

Mr. George Riley. retiring pres- ident of the Prince County As- sociation. in his report said that practically every industry has its own organized union oi which everyone is a member, and the sooner the farmers of this county realize that they, too. must organize 100 per cent into a farmers organization. the bet- ter off they will be. He said the- Federation of Agriculture is the only nationally recognized farmers urganizatiun in C a n a d s. and that farmers should support their own organization.

Referring to the work of 4-H Club and Junior Fanners he said that It is possible for a person to be a member of these organi- zations and also a member oi the Federation oi Agriculture. At the present time there are three Junior Farmers Organizations ac- tive in the Province, one at St. Georges, Kings County, one at New Glasgow, Queens County. and East Prince Junior Farmers

like to see 30 organizations in this Province in addition to the three. and said that if there were young people in any area who might be interested in organising they had only to contact the De- partment of Agriculture in Chan lottetown or Summerslde, for as- sisiance.

Eden Gov'i Wins By-election Bui Loss Of Prestige Seen

By ALAN HARVEY Canadian Press Staff Writer

LONDON (CP - Britain's Con- servative party Thursday won a by-election but lost prestige.

Miss Mervyn Pike. s pottery executive. retained the Leicester- shlre seat of Melton Mowbray for the government. but dropped votes in the process. The Conservative majority was shaved from 10.780 to 2.362. a trcnd against the gov- ernment of slightly more than seven per cent.

A similar swing in a general election would catapult the Labor party into power. It is noted. however. that only 56 per cent of the 63.000 electorate cast votes. compared with 81 per cent at the last general election. Byelections often show a trend against the government. although seldom so decisive.

PILLS NUTTING SEAT

Voting took place to fill the va- cancy caused by the resignriun of Anthony Nutting. who quit in protest against the government's Suez policies.

Miss Pike obtained 19.1w votes to 10,771 for her Labor opponent. Ted Masters, in a two-way fight. Masters Is a 29-year-old geogra- phy teacher.

OTTAWA (CP) - The Govern- ment plans to suggest to the Sen- ate at the new session of Parlia- ment ihat it launch a comprehen- sive publlc inquiry into the prob- Iem of land use and development in eastern Canada. Prime Min- ister St. Laurent said Thursday.

Mr. St. Laurent said in an inter- view that it is in eastern Canada that the "problem of land use and development is most urgent." He that the Senate would launch an inquiry at the new parliamentary session opening Jan. 8 and carry it tosuccessful conclusion although it might take two or three sessions of Pulle- ment to oomph"-

The Senate had shown by s number of its committee inquiries that it was well equipped to con- duct such an investigation. Mr. st. Laurent said. There were many persons in QIIWIGI to testify before I mittee inquirlns into e noises "which is of urgent and continu- ing importance to our economy aga whole."

it was deplorable that farmers should continue baolr - breaking work on land which obviously could not yield a decent family livelihood.

It was reported this legislation would split with the provinces costs of approved soil conserva- tion and irrigation projects. rec- Ismailon of land for term use and resettlement of farmers operating sub-marginal property.

well as among politically-coir scious persons.

From the start of the Suez con- troversy, commentators have do -lecled a discrepincy between opinion at the intellectual and at the ordinary-man level. While most non-party newspapers and magazines consistently criticized Prime Minister Eden for his S-ucz policies. polls showed that the nr- dinary voter, his fcclinzs of na- tional pride perhaps touched. sup- ported the government.

WITIIDRAWL HURT

The British withdrawal from Suez. and recent outspoken criti- cism from some Conservative members. may have reduced this mass support. Eden, whose pres- tige suffered considerably during his enforced ahsence in Jamaica. told a private party meeting this week he is confident the Conserv- atives would win an election if one were held now.

The Melton Mowbray result is not likely to increase confidence in Eden's leadership. but it may help to close party ranks.
