formed today, however, that the cabinet vacancy will not be offer- ed to Mir. Mcllraith. Reason is that the Ontario quota of cabinet members is filled and that no more from that Province can be or will be appointed at the present time.

The occasion is seen as an ex- cellent chance for Prime Minister st. Laurent to give P. E. I. a port- folio by the appointment to cab- inet councll of J. Watson Mac- Nauzht, Parliamentary Assistant to Fisheries Minister Mayhew and M P for Prince. He would be nam- ed solicitor-General.

It is conceded that the solicitor- general's post is perhaps the least desirable in the cabinet. it is pre- ferable however to being named a minister without. portfolio in which the appointee is like a. cap- tain without it ship. While Mr. St. Laurent said at. the time of the appointments of Mr. Sinclair and Mr. Campney as Ministers of Fish- eries a.nd solicitor-General that there would be no more cabinet changes prior to dissolution of parliament circumstances forced him to change his plans.

These same circumstances can quite conceivably place Mr. Mac- Naught in the Liberal cabinet.

Her: Up, Down Elsewhere

Chevrier Gives Assurance Re PEI Potato Car Requirements

Preparailons Underway For Conference .

OTTAWA, Nov. 21 (CF) -- Canada this year may be blessed with the highest food production in her history, but elsewhere in the world, especially in the needy countries, production appears to be declining, the Agriculture Depart- ment reported today.

It issued a 103-page review of world and Canadian agricultural trends as background material for

the annual federal-provincial ag- ricultural conference which opens here Dec. 1. Agriculture ministers

from all provinces are expected to attend the two-day meeting.

Food Production Up

With a record crop already har- vested, departmental economists nredlctcd that total farm output in Canada this year may be about 20 per cent higher than a year ago and about 15 per cent greater than the previous record output in 1942

Farmers produced more grain this year than a year ago, more pork, milk. butter, eggs and poul- try. Increased production was ac- companied by a. number of farm problems. Farm operating costs climbed and selling prices dropped.

Foot-and-mouth disease in West- ern Canada brought an embargo on shipments to the sl30,000.000-a- year United States market and there still was no indication when the market would be re-opened.

Federal Support Costly

Peak production and marketing disruptions meant more federal price support than at any time since the program was started eight years ago, The .Federal Government had to support hogs, cattle, butter and egg prices. The cost of supporting hog and cattle prices, said.-the de- partment, 'is expected to be "sub- stantlal."

While it gave no figures, unof- ficial estimates are that federal price support will cost about 380,- ()00.000 or more this year, about triple the total cost of all support since 1944.

While farm prices were declining in Canada. the retail food price trend in most countries appeared to be stiffening.

NEW YORK. Nov 21 --(AP)- President-elect Eisenhower today filled two more cabiriet posts-

ireasury and attorney general- and tapped Harold E. stassen to direct the multi-billion dollar Mutual Security Agency. I For the second day in I row, Eisenhower dipped into the ranks of big industrialists to select George M. Murphy, 62. of Clevelnd as secretary of the treasury. He has been l'lEfld!!!' in the iron, steel and coal industry for a quar- ter of a century.

Herbert Browncll, Jr, 48. a key adviser to the Dewey administra- tion in New York and mastermind

of the Eisenhower presidential cu-npvtlgn, was named attorney- general.

OTTAWA. Nov. :l1-(5peclal)- An analysis of refrigerator car movements in the Maritime: and of action taken by the C. N. R. to move the Pince Edward Island potato crop to its markets was given in the House of Commons here this afternoon by Transport Minister Chevrier.

The statement was in reply to a question asked by W. Chester S. McLure, Progressive ,Conserva- tlve member for Queens who ask- ed the minister what action the C. N. R. was taking to provide "reefer" cars to move the bump- er 195d crop.

Applause came from all sides of the chamber when Mr. Chevrier spoke of the Island's large potato crop and satisfactory potato pric- es. referring to Mr. McLure's en- quiry, the minister said:

"I think that question deserves an answer and I have come pre- pared to make one. The potato

crop of Prince Edward Island this year, I understand, is the best in volume for some time and the pri- ces offered for potatoes are ex- tremely attractive to the growers. I am very glad indeed that Prince Edward Island is in a position to benefit from these favorable cir- cumstances.

Naturally the heavy concentrat- ed movement of traffic from the Island to. the mainland creates a. problem for the transportation facilities available. Canadian Nat- ional Railways is faced with a very heavy requirement of refrig- erator cars to handle this potato crop, and naturally, it is practic- ally impcnssible for the railway management to meet all the 're- quirements al. the same time.

"in co-operation with the man- agement of Canadian National Railways it has bcen iionsible thus far to -t at least 50 refrli-'brat-

Severe Storm in The United Slaies

CHICAGO. Nov. 21 -(AP) - A storm dropping as much as six inches of rain and 18 inches of snow today covered most of the United States from Tennessee east- ward through the Middle Atlantic states.

Cape Hatteras, N. C., reported a 24-hour rainfall of more than six inches; Norfolk, Va., and Balti- more received more than three inches.

But the big storm. which centred over West Virginia and stirred strong winds from Virginia to Pennsylvania, brought the worst weather to Knoxville, Tenn.

The temperature there dropped to 27 degrees. Up to 18 inches of snow fell in some Tennessee areas. Trains and buses were hours late. Public transportation was snarled. Power lines toppled, putting two radio stations off the air and leav- ing hundreds of homes without light or heat.

surprised. Its citizens knew "Bill" Green came home an ill man early in October, although the family tried to minimize the seriousness of his physical decline.

But. word leaked out. Green went to Coshocton Memorial Hos- pital for two weeks, then returned home. Two weeks ago the family installed a small elevator to en- able hlm to come downstairs. He spent most of his time in bed.

A coal miner and a son of a coal miner, Green was born in Coshocton. March 3, 1873. By the time he was 18 he was a full- ileged miner.

Devoted To Union

Early he acquired a deep-rooted devotion to union, angry over a pay method by which mine wages were dependent on coal big enough in be stopped by a two- inch screen. In the Ohio Gen- eral Assembly. where at 36 Green went for two terms as state sen- ator, the Coshocton miner finally won his first fight.

He introduced and fought to a. bill abolishing the screen pay practice. ,

In 1906, Green became presi- dent of the Ohio, district, United Mine Workers By 1912 he was elected secretary-treasurer of the UMW under the presidency of John L. Lewis.

Samuel Gompers, founder of the AFL. was then its president. when Gompers died in 192-3. the APL picked Green to succeed him.

Years later. the UMW, led by Lewis. walked out of the AFL and started the Con ress of industrial Organizations wth which Green fought a running organizational battle over the years. Lewis later led his miners out of mo ranks but never back into the AFL fold under Green.

Surviving are his widow, Jennie. to whom he had been married so yesrs. Mrs. Green bu been in poor health for four or five years. Other survivors include five daugh- ters, and a son, Harry, I Cleve- land attorney.

The family said it planned ten- tatively to hold funeral services Monday in Coshocton but this was not certain.

That the problem of sewage dis- posal is more important than ob- taining an immediate water supply was emphasized by three expert witnesses as the inquiry into the Parkdale water situation opened in the Court House before Judge C. St. Clair Tralnor yesterday morn- mg.

The three wltnesses, Dr. Harold Shaw, Provincial Pathologist, Dr. 0. H. Curtis, Deputy Minister of Health, and Mr. Robert E. Donnel- ly, Provincial Sanitary Engineer, all maintained that contamination of the present well water supply was being caused by surface drainage. Mr. Donnelly said that it was an engineering axiom that proper dis- posal should precede water in- stallatlon.

Dr. Show was the first wituess' called when the enquiry opened yesterday morning. He submitted a report on the situation written by the former sanitary engineer, Mr. W. K. Sharpe. giving information on 50 sample: of water taken from the supply of Parkdale residents. The report also stated that there were 123 families in the district de- pendent for water on wells, differ- ent types of pumps or on neigh- burs.

At the concluding session yester- day aftcrnoon the inquiry was ad- journed to Monday. January 26.

Unusually-Heavy House Program Siarls Rumors

OTTAWA, Nov. 2l (CP) - The Government plans to ask Parliament for a one-year exten- sion of the broad emergency pow- ers given to it following the out- break of the war in Korea.

This was discussed today in one

er of the Commons. The Emer- gency Powers Act is scheduled lo expire May 31, 1953. The gov- ernment will ask that it be ex- tended to May 31, 1954.

Another resolution would re- establish the defence expenditures committee of the Commons. it studies defence. expenditures al- ready made.

Most of the resolutions were to bills forecast in the Speech from the Throne at the opening yester- day of a new session of Parlia- ment.

On the order paper also were 15 resolutions sponsored by private members and suggesting such things as a Canadian hill of rights land pensions for the incapacitat-l ed.

It is unusual for the gov- ernment to introduce so much legislation so early in the session. The move added to speculation that the Govern- ment may be preparing for all ' election next spring rather i than in the fall of 1953.

The Government has said, how- ever, that. it hopes to have its legislative program passed by Parliament in time for as many members as possible to attend the icorontion of Queen Elizabeth II June 2 next.

The government's legislation will provide the basis for a debate on its defence and economic policies since the start. of the Korean war.

Under the Emergency Powers Act, the government has had au- ihoiity to do almost anything without first consulting Parlia- ment. It could, for instance, con- trol prices, the use of strategic materials and the operations of industries.

The Opposition may call for an accounting of how the powers have been used since the act was passed ,

Defence policies will come un- der review when the government moves to re-establish the defenccl expenditures committee.

Before the session started, Pro- gressive Conservatives said they planned to demand re-establish- ment of the committee, although not entirely satisfied with what it had accomplished last year.

One bill will amend the National Housing Act. The amount avail- able for loans to prospective home owners will be increased to 5500,-
