future negotiations and be D5- ed in the final draft:

1. The United States. Canada and the five nations comprising the Western European Union should, form the nucleus of the non-Communist alliance.

2. The alliance should include other countries with common se- curity interests in the North At- lantic -— notably Portugal, Ice- land, Denmark (which controls Greenland), Norway and Iceland. 3. A council or committee should be crested to work continuctlly on common defence problems Ind provide a constantly available means for coping with any emer- gency.

4. The nations in the system should eo-ordinate their military sources to the fullest extent pos- sible. For the United States this would mean enactment of a mil- itary aid program —-— a kind of peace-time revival of lend-lease to strengthen the Western European countries against Russia. The five European nations already are pooling their resources and have set up s joint command.

5. I-n event of attack on any member of the alliance. cll the other members should consider that they have been attacked and should take "appropriate ac."ion."

U. In each country the "approp- riate action" would be taken in accordance with its constitutional

BANNER CRANBERRY

(Continued from Page l)

Park in hundreds and it was no- thing unusual to see from 50 to 60 cars parked in the arca before 9 o'clock with their occupants all engaged in picking cranberries. Scores of pickers left the area each clay with a bushel of cranberries each. Rustico Island. a part of the Park area. contained 4O acres of cranberry bog from which huge quantities of cranberries were re- moved.

Superior Quality

Mr. R. C. Parent. superintendent of the Dominion Experimental Farm, Charlottetown, said Island cranberries were not exceeded in flavour or keeping qualities by those grown in any other section of Eastern Canada. Island cran- berry growers could depend on a frost-proof growing and develop- ing season of 150 days which was a longer period of safety than was offered the growers of New Bruns- wick. ' Mr. Parent said it. would be s comparatively easy matter to in- crease the Island's cranberry pro- duction ten fold. There were plenty of cranberry "bogs" awaiting a little scientific attention. Those places, now producing nothing, could be made into productive and profitable areas. "Turfing" and the application of three or four inches of send to choke out the weeds were sll that were necessary. The Experimental Farm has several productive areas. Mr. Parent said.' One is at the Illustration Station at Blooming Point: another is at Murray Harbour. and a third at East Point. Mr. Gordon Warren is in charge of all cranberry ex- periment for the Farm.

The present wholesale price for cranberries is 20 cents a pound.

able." For the remainder of i948 and for the first half of next year the United States would be able to absorb a high volumne of fish at prices close to those now prevail. mg.

Market outlook for dried salt fish also was good, he said.

Exports of canned fish would probably show a sharp drop. Mar- kets were limited and there were indications of over-supply.

Mr. MacNaught told the co-op- erative that the Fisheries Depart- ment was placing prime emphasis on plans to expand and improve services now available to fishermen.

A Maritime Provinces technical service now was being planned and there would be some extension of educational work.

“More and better business meth- ods must be put into force in the fishing industry of the Maritimes if it is to maintain the status built up during the last few years." ‘MrnMacNaught said._

reply in kind before the campaign ends Saturday night.

Dewey's speech prepared for Cleveland tonight commented on 'I‘ruman‘s earlier west-coast re- mark that he liked "old Joe" but that Stalin is "a prisoner of the Politburo."

"Without partisanship, on s. subject that is above partisanship, I am compelled to say to you that this problem of securing the peace must be handled better than it has been handled in the past." Dewey said.

."Of course, there is no easy answer. The road of easy answers is the road to disaster. But of one thing we can be sure; we shall not achieve peace by conducting these desperately important mat- ters on a happy-thought basis or by jovially remarking that we like good old Joe."

Meanwhile, Henry Wallace. wind- ing up his campaign for the pres- idency as leader of his new Pto- grsssive Party. calmly told a New York audience that he had "stop- ped the cold war in its tracks."

Wallace solemnly told a scream- ing audience of close to 20,000 who had paid as high as $3.60 to hear him, that "there shall be no war."

Wallace told his audience that the two old parties, spirituatly one and with no major differences in their policies, ultimately would bs forced to unite against the Pro- gressives.

The Republicans and Democrats. he said, were "fighting sham po- litical battles" actuated only by the desire of the one to retain power and the other to attain it.

Truman speaks in Madison Square Gsrden- here tomorrow night and will spend 4B hours in the metropolitan area before head- ing west to his independence, Mo, home for the wind-up.

Dewey will follow in the Garden next Saturday night. Wallace will

British Exchange Control Obstacle To ArgentinaSeedMarket

OTTAWA, Oct. 27- British ex- change control regulations, not Canada's, are the obstacles stand- ing in the way of all Maritime seed potato producers selling into the large available market in Argentina and receiving payment in sterling, instead of U. S. or Canadian dol- lars, the foreign exchange control board declared here today.

"If Argentina can make arrange- ments with the British authorities for the transfer to Canada of ster- ling funds to pay for these seed potatoes, we will gladly accept the sterling," board officials stated. "Otherwise payment would have to be made in dollars as Argentina is in the hard-money area, not the sterling area. A precise situation exists in regard to other Canadian basic producers wishing to ship to South American countries." Officials emphasized that this was a matter which came entirely under the British foreign exchange control regulations. “These British foreign exchange control regula- tions do not permit sterling to be transferred freely from one country to another," board officials stated. Under these regulations. special permission must be obtained from the British authorities, where a country such as Argentina and oth- er South American countries are in the dollar nrcn and want to pay their imports in sterling rather than in dollars.

The evident reason for this Bri- tish exchange control is that a dol- lar country would use the sterling to buy goods in Britain or any other sterling country, and these countries are short of U. S. dollars and want them.

"Canada is not accumulating sterling, but using it for purchases weldmalre from Britain," officials Sll .
