The present centml heating equipment at the air-port, Mr. Connolly said. would give each of the three hangars a storage tem- perature running from 45 degrees Fahrenheit to 70 or even 80 de- Brees.

Mr. Con- Ilfllly said. the Provincial Govern- ment, in view of the present sar- ious problem of potato storage, would only ask a nominal rent-ll once the hangars became its pro- party.

The Department of Reconstruc- tion, he added, has bcenlaware for some time of the problem and will do all in its power to remedy the situation. Whether or not potato storage in one of those hangars is practicable is a problem which only the potato-growing industry can decide. he concluded.

' Dealers Interviewed

In the meantime, practically all potato dealers in the City were unanimous in the opinion that, storing potatoes at the airport: was impracticable. since. the)’, claimed. the storage expenses would amount to more than thcl value of the potatoes.

One prominent potato dealer questioned the statement mode by C.N.R, officials published in yes- terday's Guardian, that suffltia-nt refrigerator cars are avnilable on the mainland for the transporta- tion of the Island's dui-ly export- ing needs. The "Prince Edward Is- land" and the "Scotia" cun bring over nearly two hundred reefcrs each fine day, one exporter said. but no such quantity was coming across.

One ‘potato dealer estimated that there are bushels of potatoes in the Province which will be endangered by twill when colder wcniher arrives, and‘ that a ltlggerlng confronts the industry.
