CAPITAL BUREAU OF THE GUARDIAN OTTAWA — There is little or no chance- that Great Britain will relax its ban against the importation of Prince E d ward Island seed or table potatoes. an agricultural spokesman for the British High Commissioner's oi- fice said here Thursday. Fear of Importing Canadian potato diseases and pests, nota- bly spindle tuber and the color- ado beetle tpotato bug). are behind the firm decision that has resisted efforts to crack the British market by Canadian po- tato growers.

PRESSURE EXERTED

Considerable pressure was exerted last spring. when a poor British made potatoes a scarce

but the Canadian efforts prov- 3

ed to no avail. Only once. in 1947, did Britain allow a small quantity of Canadian potatoes into the country.

“There is no prospect of any change in this pol-icy in the for- seeable future. If some means were discovered to cure potato, d i s e a s e s. then the situation

might be different." the British __________________—

Each nation tends ito develop its own types of po- itato which find the most favor l with consumers. The P.E.I. var~ ieties do not always suit the. |taste of British people. and thus ales of the Canadian types might not be so great. even if they were allowed into the country. . Canadian agriculture officials 1say the chances of Britain suf- fering from the Colorado beetle through imports of Canadian potatoes are almost nil. The beetle is very rare in England and at the growing periods. Eng-
