OTTAWA, Nov. 1 -(CP)-- The new Canada Saving Bonds which since Oct. 15 have sold to the value of $257,947,600. will remain on a1, tmsflpitely, Fimnoe Min- ister Ilsiey announced today.

"Although it was known that a widespread demand existed when the decision was taken to offer the Canada. Savings bond in the new circumstances of peacetime, no ore could be bbsolutely certain of iihe extent to which this demand would be translated into action.

"No national objective ‘was ea- tablished but plans were laidon a scale which would find reasonable justification in a sale of $200,000,- 000 or hatter.

Predicts Increase ln i P.E.l. Oyster Fishery

"I ‘was extremely interacted in filing conditions in your Pawv- inoe as I saw them today in Mont. Iii-IE. BOuYl-l, Mid Rustioo, and I hope to return next spring," the Hon. H.F'.G. Bridges, Minister of Fisheries», told the members of the P1}. Island Fisheries Federation last night. The occasion for the Minister's address was a largely attended dinner at the Charlotte- town l-llobel givon in honour of the Minister's visit to the Province.

Mr. John B. Mryrick. Tlgnish. president of the Federation, pre- sided, and sitting near him as hon- crary president was His Honour flout-Gov. J.A. Bernard. Others present included the Hon. (1.11 Barbour. representing the Provin- cial Government; Mr. J.L. Douglas. M.P.; Mr. W. Chester S. MoLure, M.P.; Dr. T.V. Grant. M P.; Sen- ator JP. Maclntyre; Mr. Clar- ence F. MOIFlSlCY.

Paisley. director of publicity and external relations; Col. A.L. Barry. chief supervisor, Halifax; and Mr. E Bcsse, private secretary to Mr, Bridges.

The Minister stressed the im- portance of the island's lobster and oyster- industry and said the future fior expansion 1n oyster culture was never so bright as at the present time,

Referring to the 100 new inspec- tors to be appirnted by the first of May next, the Mmistcr said that sixty-five would be on the Atlantic coast and the remainder would serve on the Pacific seaboard. Seven new inspectors would be added to the elghiraltesviy in ‘Prince Edward Island. Those men would have three months training in element- a/ry biology eitner at Halifax or Windsor before going on duty.

Too Optimistic

Mr. Chester I’ McCarthy said he appreciated the presence of the Minister of Fisheries in the Prov- ince but thought him s. little too optimistic regarding the future of the Maritime fishing industry. There were other countries coming into the fishing picture now whose efficiency was well known pre- vious to the L151 war. If the Is- land industry is to mntlhllc t0

when conditions become less favourable than they were dur- ing the war years. it wiL‘ need more boat harbours, and it will also need cold storage plants and plants S01’

iProhldm 0f Price Control Discussed By Board Chairman

MR. DONALD GORDON

OTTAWA, Nov, 1—(CP)—Donald Gordon, Prices Board chairman, tonight bluntly told Canadians they had to choose between "con- trolled rte-adjustment, and un- controlled re-adjustment."

In a speech prepsrdd for deliv- ery, he said frankly that some price increases were to be expect- ed-“however much we may regret it. rigid stability of prices "'a be- yond achievement and this is a, fact we should face squarely."

He attributed current difficul- ties and criticism to the effect of inflationary tendencies in other countries, particularly the’ United States; removal of the impetus of war and the pressure of various groups for the removal of controls.

In the opening stages of his talk Mr. Gordon said he had no inten- tl-on of arguing s case either for or against the continuation of ex- isting controls. Despite a1; least one school of thought in public opinion no controls were being continued a day longer than was necessary. ,

"One of the big difficulties is th-at a great marw people want tn get rid of the particular control which restricts their freedom to raise prices, or to do what inc-y want to do with‘ the goods and_

Criticizes ll. B. _Tax Agreement l

MONCTON, N. 3., Nov. 1-(0?) -New Brunswick’: plan to divide a Federal grant to be received by the province under a new tax agreement with the Federal Cvov- ernment wss criticized tonight at a meeting of a city council com- mittee.

Deciding that under the arrange- ment Moncton's share of a fixed grant to be received by the prov- ince from the Pedenal Govern- ment in lieu of s direct income as- sessment was too low, the assess- ment nnd appeals committee de- cided to send s delegation to Fred- ericton to make sf protest.

Committee members produced facts and figures which they aaid showed some counties would re- ceive a larger portion of the Fed- eral grant by comparison than the smount allocated to Monctcn.

The delegation will go to Fred- ericton when the Legislature meet: later this month to discuss thg new agreement.
