Wheati Situation

77:

(Canadian Press)

WINNIPDG, Jan. 8—Stamped with the approval of Canada's prairie wheat farmers and backed by the three provincial govern- ments, first move toward orderly world wheat production has assum- ed concrete form.

Chief wheat exporting countries of the world will be asked to par- ticipate in a round-table dlscutsicn on wheat Pl 'uctlon problems if the Dominion Government accepts the suggestion at a. conference of Haulers of the three pra'rie prov- incea to be held at Ottawa, Jan.,

l7.

The leading wheat exporting countries of the world would at- tend the proposed conference. They would includc Canada, Australia. United States and Argentine. The latter country controls a7 per cent. bf the world export wheat supply.

For a long time farmers of west- em Canada have stressed the fal- lacy of continued increased produc- tion of wheat in view of present conditions. The present wheat prob- lem and low prices it is urged, can only be dealt with by co-operative action on the part of all exporting eoimtries.

Delegates to annual meetings of three prairie wheat pools two months ago requested the govern- ment to convene such c, conference. It was believed such a gathering would lead the way w stabilized wheat prices and solve the present marketing problem.

At a recent meeting in Winnipeg a! the Premiere oi Manitoba, Sask- atchewan and Alberta. a. proposal for the calling of an international wheat conference was unanimously approved. It was decided to suggest to the Federal Government the ad- visability for immediate action.

It is believed that if the produc- tion of wheat can be made more in harmony with‘ the demands of’ the importing nations the world wheat flood can be checked with Ieonsequent improvement in world prices.

Torrents of wheat have flooded world markets of late, with conse- luent downward plunges in prices. Only by (so-operation between the great producing countries could a solution to_thc_ problem of the liar- vesscd agrarian bc reached.

the ending of "the fox pelt season about thg middle of the month, a 5mm"! contrast ls made between fur sales in the early days and u carried on today, at the beginning of the fur trade the Indian traded his skins for beads, kn1ves,.toma- hawks and later on rifles, ammuni- tion and supplies were added to the barter. Then the white trapper came upon the scene and he traded for money and supplies. The trap- per in scmc districts still curries on his trade much as his predecess a did. Today fur farming is canted on on an extensive scale. Ranches where black foxes and other fur bearing animals are bred for their skins dot the landscape and the in- dustry is on a highly commercialized basis. _Pr1nce Edward Island bears the honour of first commencing this now profitable industry and from there it has spread all over the world. That province still maln- taina the lead and New Brunswick stands second among the provinces of Canada. ‘The Canadian National Silver Fox Breeders Association, thc largest as- sociation of its kind in the world and with headquarters at r- side, P. E. 1., reports a. profitable season, according to the Natural Resources Department of the Can- adian National Railways. In 1927 this organization disposed of 2,000 pelts, while in 1931i the number was increased to 29,468. The average price realized on fox pelts at the rccent fur auctions held in Mon- treal, London England and Paris France, was $41.00. In addition to Inndon and Paris pelts have been marketed in Italy. Germany and South America. The association maintains a receiving station for New Brunswick in Moncton and this will close for the season on January 14th.

Throughout the long day, the wi- dow of the ‘ President, bore up bravely. At her side during the funeral and at the burial was her son, John, and his wife, Florence. Tcday- she attended church- services as usual at the Edwards Congrega- tional Church where yesterday‘ she heard the funeral ritcsfor herhus- band.

the alleged "gleeful" remark cf J,‘ 1i Thomas, British Secretary for the Dominlons, to Sean T. Okelly, Vice-president of the Irish Free State, at the British trades union conference at Ottawa: “We need not have any question of settling

other civil war in another few months.’

LONDON, Jan. 8.-J, H. Thomas, British Secretary for the Domin- ions, informed today of the state- ment o! President Eamon Dc Vai- era. of the Irish Free State concern- ing a. remark he was alleged to have made to the British Trade Confer- ence, said:

“I will make no statement at present. Obviously this is too delic- ate s. matter for me to say any- thing upon until I have had an op- portunity to read Mr. De Valera's speech in full." _

In alnwst every county in the Irish Free state political meetings were conducted last night as a wlfrlwind pro-election campaign got under way in enmest. President De Valera who called the general election as a surprise when he saw that the life of his government was threatened by the opposition in the Dail Eirearin, paid a flying visit to Limerick. l-Ie declared that he was willing to deal wth England only as an equal. As far as he is concerned, the President said, tariff walls would remain.

Excitlmg scenes at Cumann Na hgandheal meetings occurred in Cork and Dublin. A stone struck the platform from which former President William T. Gosgrave, leader of thc party, was speaking at Cork. When members of the white army advanced on the heck~ leis, there was momentary danger of a panic. Mrs. Cosgrave shouted to thc crowd to remain still. This advice was taken. The fcnner President advocated a trade agree- ment with Greet Britain.

‘There were noisy interruptions at fl. meeting of Cosgraves followers in Dublin. At this session. P. Mc- Gilligan, fonner Minister spoke. Several men were ejected from the meeting before order was restored.

The issue before the people is whether Mr. Dc Valera shall bc re- turned to power to continue his fight against Great Britain, with the object of ultimate absolute 1n- dependence, or whether the opposi- tlon, headcd by former President William T. Ccsgravc, shall bc elect- ed on a platform which calls for

relations with Great Britain.

Both Mr. De Valera and Mr. Cosgrave are campaigning vigorous- ly and these two outstanding per- sonalities are attracting great crowds. .

Another Cosgrave meeting at 5111- go was broken up by about 100 men who stormed thc assembly tonight and seriously injured two of the ten members of the army comrades who had been assgned to prevent any disturbance.

‘Dr. T. F. O‘Higglns, leader of the army comrades, in commentlni; tonight on the dustubance , said there would be no free Speech for one party alone. ‘This was regarded in some quarters as forecasting rc- prisals against the Republicans.

Officials disrupted the pin-ll by moving the men from the shops fifteen minutes before the usual time. Most of the prisoners, it was said, went quietly but a few offer- ed resistance in the cell blocks and difficulty was experienced in got- ting them into the cells. Two or three convicts were reported to have been wounded by shots fired by the gilards. The prisoners had no weapons, it is believed, After they were forced into the cells some of the men continued the dis- turbance by shouting and breaking furniture.

HALIFAX, Jan. 8—Neither of two former convicts ,who served out their sentences in Dorchester Pen- itentiary and who are now residing in Halifax could hazard a guess to- day as to why inmates of the in- stitution should riot. One said con- ditions were too good t0 warrant any such action; the other, that armed guards posted on the pris- on's towers would prevent escape inevitably and thus nullify any possibility of escape. Both had a 59°31 W°1‘¢..!9!_.W!F‘1§1?..G- T- 9°“- "He is e. gentleman," said one. "He is a right guy," avcrred the other.

"I don't see what the fellows in the Den would want, other than their freedom, and they can get that much more quickly by watch- ing their conduct. Warden Goad is a gentleman. He will do anything in his rower to give prisozfera the best possible chance." Reading ma. tcrial was provided three times a week.

DORCHESTER, N. 3., Jen. 8.--Of flve prisoners injured during riot- ing at the Dorchester penitentiary yesterday, one suffered serious gun- shot wounds, it was learned tonight. Two guards were slightly injured.

UNDER. CONTROL

DORCIIESTER, N. B., Jail, 8.- Dorchestcr Penitentiary, scene of rioting yesterday afternoon. is en- closed by a high wall. Armed guards keep watch at turrets on each corner and other guards pa- trol the wall. Guards on duty in- side thc enclosure ordinarily do not carry arms.

Administration offices are on one aide of the prison entrance and a library on thc other. Beyond the immediate entrance is a reception room with iron doors at each end. This leads to a large circular room called "the dome," which is used as a yard in bad weather. The cell blocks extend oil‘ thc "dome" in op- posite directions. These blocks com- prise three tiers oi cells, Behind the cell blocks, and paralleling them, are two yards. The kitchen, hospital, chapels and boiler room are located 1n a central position, and at thc rem- are the workshops.

WHERE THE TROUBLE STARTED

The trouble started in the stone shed, according to a report which has reached l-lon. Hugh Guthrie, Minister of Justice. Almost sim- ultaneously, a snlall fire was start- ed in thc laundry by one or more of thc convicts. No riot occurred on thc part of thc main inmates al- though some joined in the yelling after being placed back in their cells.

CAPE TRAVERSE, 8; BEDEQUE, I

On Friday night last in Borden Rink, Cape Traverse Blood-Hounds administered a severe defeat to the Bedeque Beavers with a score of 8 to 1 and incidentally retained the leadership of the McLean League. Cape 'I‘i'avcrsc showed their su- periority in every phase of thc game and at no time were they in difficulty. The whole team worked like a machine and completely baf- fled the Beavers, who seemed to be ofl form.

From the opening cbukker the Blood-Hounds kept boring in, but shot wild until about half way in this stanza when Clint Howatt, the diminutive crack centre man who was the outstanding player on the ice, scored on a. solo run. Two min- utes later Dawson aoloed back and forth until three minutes to go when l-lowatt and McMicken rushed in upon the Bedeque goalie, Hcwatt shooting into the corner of the rink. McMicken rushing in shot the puck which glanced off Arsenaultb skate into the net. With one minute to go Gaudet, big Beaver centre man, rushed the length of the ice to scovc for the Beavers. ‘
