Prsnlier ' Jones declared at a Liberal meeting in Breadaibana Saturday night that all rumours of a ceiling being placed on pota- toes by the Dominion Government were without foundation. The Premier said he had taken the trouble to wire Finance Minister Abbott, at Ottawa. about the mat- ter and had received the following reply: I "Replying to your enquiry. In my public statement concerning fruit and vegetable prices, I said the Government was prepared to impose mark-up controls at the wholesale and retail levels if nec- essary to prevent a. uses.

WILL Agni SEEK

Continued from page 1

Minister King will not endorse Mr. Sinclair's bill on the part of the government but will call for a “free" vole on the matter. In this event it is quite possible that the four members from Princi- Edward Island would hold the balance of power.

During the session of 1947 and also of 1946. bills w legalize the ‘vrlrpori, mallufaciure and sale of margarine were introduced into

the senate b_v Senator WJEJ. Euler. The bills went clown to defeat, with all four Prince Edward Island mom- bers of the upper house ranging thelnlsolves against bliem.

A poll taken by The Guardian inst session revealed tllat nil four mcm- bcrs of the House of Commons from the Island province were against admission of margarine to this country. Moreover lzlsi spring, VlllWil Prrmier J. Walter Jones was in Ottawa, lie told this newspaprrfls Ottawa correspondent that farmers in Prl-llce Edward Island "weren't making any money" when butter prices were around 55 cents a pound. - Supporters of Mr. Sinclair's mar- garine bill, known as “on act to amend tho ciairy industry act". say that pPPS-(‘Iib prices of butter to- gether with mounting prices of other food producis. clothing and other commodities, wE-li force tile commons to admit the butter sub- stitute- to this country. Studies carried out recently by tho Toronto welfare board and by Ottawa headquarters of nation- wide labor orgarlizaiions indicate that availability of margdrI-ne to Canadian families lil the lower in- COlTlE‘ groups would substantially aid their budgets. A further argu- ment advanced here for free legal entry of margarine to Canada is Lilat lmdnr ilhe Canada-Newfound- land agreements, Newfoundland would h." pcnmiitcd tn continue its use as a butter substitute in event of tile ancient colony becoming ihe tenth province of Canada. It would be unreasonable, the llnargorine protagonists say, that one province should be singled out for special favorable treatment in this respect. With butter prices threatening to crowd 70 cents ll pound and with Agriculture Minister Gardiner pre- dieting higher meal: prices in the hear future. margarine is exlpccted to be One of lllic livcst issucs of the session early in 1948. “in many cases. it is understood, members of all parties wivll consult their own constituents pl-iol- to faking one side or the other in tile controversy.

CHURCH 0F SCOTLAND PULPIT

Rev. Horace F. MBCEWflLpI8BKlh~ ins m the Church of Scotland. December "I. spoke on Acts 3:19. “Rcpent ye. therefore, and be con- verted. that you: sins may be blotted out.” The need of repent- ence is manifest because all dnen are sinners and alienated from God. There is judgment to come in the day of wrath and righteous indignation of God. against all who persist in sin and remain un- repentent. “A-fter thy hardness and impen- itent heart trcasurest up unto thy- self wrath against the dzly of wrath and revelation of the right. eous Judgment of God (Romans 2:5). God grants repentance to sinners because of Christ's sacri- ficial death for sin. "Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a saviour for to give repentance to Israel. and forgiveness of sins" (Acts 5:31). God is not willing that any should perish, "but that all should come to repentance". He commands it. furthermore, for we are told, "He now comrlundeth all sin every. where to repent" (Acts l7:30). Re- pentance means primarily a turn- ing away from sin and an excr- cisirlg of faith in the crucified. atoning Saviour, so that sin is for- saken and Christ is cleavcn to for forgiveness and eternal salvation. Conversion is necessary for ent- rance into heaven. Jesus saidflEx- cept ya be converted and become as little children, ye shall in no W158 enter the kingdom of heav- en.” It is granted by God, and urged upon men by Kin. "Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet. they shall be as white as snow; though they bored like crimson, they shall be as wool" (Isaiah 1:18). Ha is send- ing out this gracious invitation in 1947. even as it was given by the Apostles. Men need to hearken and believe ths gospel while yet there is time. when Christ re- turns the door will be shut and no further opportunity will rc- main. Tho great result of conversion is the putting away of sin. God cancels this for tho believer in Jesus Christ. He has cast _them “behind his buck." pnd cast them "into the depths of the sea." They RIf!\blOl.l.0fl out and remembered no more. Christ has borne it all, and God. through Him, has en- tirely removed them.
