Premier J. Walter Jones has sold “Ahegweit Capltaln," head nerd sire bull at the Premier's internationally - known B u n b u r y Farm to Mr. Elva Vine. promin- lent Holstein breeder of Llsfowell, Ont. The price was not disclosed.

"Abegweit Capitaln" is the son

of "Abegwelt Sparkce". which Premier Jones sold to the Curtiss Candy 0a.. Chicago. for the sum of 82.530. at that time fil942i the highest price ever paid in the United States for a Holstein cow. 'Capltain’s" sire was “Man of War Dritornia” which Premier Jones purchased from the Maytag Dairy Farms. Newton. Iowa. in 1981.

The most famous son of "Abeg- welt capitaln" is the young bull. “Abegwelt Milord", which brought the record price of $10,000 at six weeks of age. It was the sale of this calf by Premier Jones which coiled forth the comment from Premier George Drew of Ontario at a recent Dominion-Provincial Conference in Ottawa that Prince Edwafd Island could not bc in

The “Scotla". which la now assist- zns the "Prince Edward Island" will help materially in getting more cars over. but the combined efforts of both ferries may not he enough to give the shlnners a‘.l the cars they would like to have a‘ the nresent time.

Mr, Lewis himself made no an- npuncement but the approximately 80 presidents in the bituminous- produclng areas were brought into Washington, where the United Mine Workers are negotiating with the government for higher wages

lflng Still Sagcy 0n Question 0f Ilia Retirement

(By The Canadian Press)

OTTAWE, Nov. 'I—Prlme Min. ister Mackenzie King let it be known today that before the life cf the present parliament ex- three in 1950 he is going to con- sidet- “very carefully" whether he should reconsider his decision not to lead the Liberal Party in an- other general election.

Asked directly at a pres; con- fereme whether in view of the present political situation and the wishes of his followers he might reconsider that decision, Mr. King replied:-

"The next election would nonn- ally come in 1960. Well. between now and 1960 I am going to con- sider very carefully my intention not to lead the Liberal Party through another campaign,"

The Prime Minister said he would be ready to retire at any time if he felt that he did not have the confidence of his party er the confidence of Parliament "for that matter."

He said he always had felt that iariy party should realise that it must be pro-prod eventually to select a new leader and that thought applied to the Liberal Party.

Discussing the United States election yesterday, Mr. King said he believed the results showed the trend in that country wasagalnst saving too many political parties and added that he thought the people of Canada should note that "aspect" of the American voting.
