Sees Island As MostFcrtilcArea

Prince Edward Island has more fertile land per capita than any other political unit in the world.

That was the considered opin- ion of Mr. Bruce Hill, president. of the national Chamber of (Joni merce, who told the Chariottctoxvn Board cf Trade at a special meet- ing last night that. he had come to that conclusion after having, within filie last fifteen months, travelled across Canada and twenty-five other countries as well. He spoke at a dinner function in the Charlottetown. lVIr. F’. W. Gur- tis, president of the local Beaid of Trade presided.

Because of its scant population and the vastness of its treasure, no other country in the world has as much right. ns Canada io lock to the future wiih so much confi- dencc and hope, Mr. Hill said.

He sounded a note of warning, however, that. "if we don't take the. responsibility of developing these resources. we are not going to be able to hold them." He also referred to the "diversity of Can- ada's economic resources”. These involved a diversity of problems which WEIB not. lessened by the fact that there were nine Prov- inces in Canada. each of which "was as independent as s. pig on ice."

Canada's prosperity and that of its powerful neighbor to the South, the United states, were directly attributable to their maintenance ‘of the free enterprise system, lifr. Hill said. He mentioned the cnaos which is prevalent in those coun- tries of mil-ope that have embrac- ed the principles of Communism and said an effort would be made by persons in this country io st- ialn political office, persons who were determined to destroy the free enterprise system.

Mr. Hill said iic would not want anyone in the audience to think he was trying to imply that the system of free enterprise was per- fect. It. was not perfect. But men did not do away with their inoicr cars because they found some slight mechanical defect in them. Why, then, should the people c! Canada wish to abolish a system that has given them a standard of living so much more advanced than that of those countries which have accepted Commiiflifim M their way of life?

Management and Labour

It, was the declared intention I the Canadian Chamber of Cem- merce, lidr. Hill said, through its units, the 553 Boards of Trade scattered across Canada. t0 B011- tinue its efforts to bring manage- ment and labour together so that each will be able to see that the two are interdependent and that the true welfare of the 01141 M8811! the true welfare of the other If such relationship is consistently maintained and tho NOD19 03 03"‘ eds work together in harmony and confidence, the future will belong to them. Neither Communism nor any other ism will be able to take from them the high Div-W 11mm‘ the future holds in trust for them.

Mr. Donald Morreii. secretary of the national Chamber of Com- merce, spoke briefly. He noted the presence of representatives ol the Orapiilld and Victoria Booms of Trade dnd said such interest sug- ured well for the Board 0! T?!“ movement in the-Province. '

Canadian‘ liurscs Ass’n Executive Meet In Ch’iown

Hera to attend an executive meeting today of the Canadian Nurses Association-the first such meeting to be’ held in Prince Ed- ward Island—Miss Ethel Cryder- man, newly elected president, and Miss Gertrude Hall, general secre- tary-tressurer, both expressed up- preclatlon at the opportunity of visiting Charlottetown at this time. , “

In referring to the present posi- ticn oi’ public health and nursing in Canada, Miss Cryderman and Miss Hail mentioned that iunong the many interesting things which happened at the recent convention in Sackville, a resolution was pass- ed in which the Department of National Health and Welfare was asked to establish a. Federal divis- l0l‘i of musing within that Depart- ment. The Association exhibited great interest in the health pro- posals rccentiymade to the prov- inces by the Federal Government.

The nurses of Canada. are fully aware of the part which members of their profession must play in any progressive health measure. As the Federal plans include a marked increase, during the next fcw years, in the number of hos- pital beds, the Association feels that this cannot be accomplished without suitable and sufficient per- sonncl.

The C.N. A. has many sugges- ticns for the better utilization of nurses at the present time, as well as carefully considered plans for increasing nursing personnel in Canada. ’

Officers of the Association visit- ing in the City this week-end are: Miss Ethel Cryclerman, newly- clectecl president, head of V.0.N., Toronto; immediate past-president Miss Rae Chittick, University of Alberta; Miss Gertrude Mallory, first vice-president, University of Alberta; Miss Marion Myers, sec- ond vice-president. Saint John, N. 13.; Miss Llyle Creelrnan, third vice-president, Toronto; Miss Ger- trude Hall, general secretary- treasurer, Montreal.

Poultry, And Egg Market is Strong

"The poultry and egg market is in a. very strong position," Mr. F. M. Nash, senior poultry products inspector reported yesterday in a Dominion Department of Agricul- Lure egg and poultry market report. "Live fmvl and chicken are in very strong demand in the U. S. A. sev- eral American buyers being in the Province last week looking for stock. Three truckloads of fowl comprising 5500 birds moved across the border since last reporting. American buyers are paying for live fowl, five pounds and over, delivered their plants, 32-33 cents pcr lb. To arrive at a fair local price. one would have to deduct Ziéc per lb. duty, cost of trans- poriliig birds 400 miles, shrinkage, and. u. fair charge for assembling the product locally which should work out i0 a price of 23c per pound to the producer. The Am- erican market is highly remuner- ative and even after paying pro- ducers 23c per lb. for fowl, dealers are assured of an'excellent prom from the transaction.

“Egg prices are good, therefore do not." dispose of your 10M until Production drops below profitable levels, then market. your fowl. The market for fowl should hold firm throughout July and August. The majority of chicken on Prince Ed- wnrd Island st the present time is not suitable for either the Canad- ian or American market. To com- mand s good price, chicken should dress at least four pounds and carry considerable flashing on the breast. Get birds out on good grim range. feed them well and there will bc s good market awaiting you during August and later.

- "Egg production in the Province is decreasing. Opersiers of egg grading stations report receipts down six per cent from previous week. Egg production is holding’ up well for the season and will under the excellent price received for eggs today. Quality is good for the season but strict attention should be paid to the product if produc- ers are to cash in on the profit to be derived from marketing Grade A eggs. Egg production is decreas- ing rapidly, in the Maritimes and ihera is s demand stronger than for some years for Grade A eggs.
