He testified he had- signed the. guar- antee himself’ and that his store records disclosed the wrtch covered by the guarantee was sold five years ago, and that-a number on the guarantee cor- responded to a number placed on the back of the watch.

Mr. Scales further questioning brought out that other . records made it further possible for Mr. Taylor to further recognize the watch.

DEFENCE EXAMINATION

Under, lengthy cross-examina- tion by defence council; Mr. Tay- lor testified, in reply to Mr. Sigsworth’s request_that—he_re- examine the number on the back of the watch through a jeweller’s eyepiece, that-the number on the guarantee and the-number on the_watch were not exactly _the same. Further examination by Mr. Sigsworth adduced evidence that the back of the watch was detachable and that the back on which the numbers appeared could possibly be fitted. on on the back of another watch by mis- take during repair. Concluding his exhaustive cross-examinat- ion, Mr..Sigsworth was_told- by Mr. Taylor that it was possible that this was not the same watch which he sold.

{WORKERS RETURN

GEORGETOWN -- Work at Gulf Garden Foods Limited plant continued through the day, yesterday, and resumés today dispite work stoppage by a num- ber of female employees on Thursday.

Male’workers who are envol- | ved in work stoppage were off the production lines for approx- imately one hour and then con- tinued to work without further interruption. At no time were the workers employed on the shore crew.or those of the main- tenance crew involved. Follow- ing the 10 a.m. coffee break, ap- proximately--56—men—and—52-fe- male employees were refusing to return to work. Not all fe-

a number of those involved at the time later returned_to work.

The forenoon dispute was tem- porarily resolved when manage- ment adressed the workers .in the cafeteria immediately upon hearing of the work stoppage and invited the workers from the various departments involved to appoint representatives to meet with the management to discuss the problems involved and ‘that in the meantime the workers re- turned to work.

Workers’ demands involved a request for pay increases and also the question of work hours and ‘commencement ‘of overtime- rates.

Female workers. on_ production ’ lines asked for what.would amount to a 12 cent an hour in- crease in pay. .This was turned

down by management who point- ed_out. that--when_the_incentive program, soon to be inagurated,

went into effect, it Would result in increased earning power.

The representatives of the var- ious departments met at one o'clock with the workers and all male employees_and a number of female workers immediately resumed work. The remainder of female employees then left. work and the plant.

WOODLAND BURNING

Forestry Department . Attends 6 Grass Fires

Frank Gaudet, provincial for- ester, reported last night that the department of forestry truck answered six calls between the hours of 10 a.m. and nine p.m. and that the Mount Stewart Fire Department was called to the scene of a bush fire at Tracadie Cross.

At 10 o'clock yesterday morn- ing they were called toa brush fire at Malpeque Road and were called to Mermaid twice. Once at 11 a.m. and again‘at 2:00 p.m. Other. brush -fires--were- located at Milt Cove Bedford; Fan- ningbrook, erry Hill and Blooming Point. ~_

The call to Blooming Point came at about nine o'clock last night and it was reported that approximately 100--acres was

| ablaze. At one time Mr. Gaudet

said woodland had been burn- ing but was extinguished by |10:30. However, at the time of this report the fire ‘was still | going.

He said that most of the fires

resulted from people, burning grass and shrubs in which the fire got out of control. However very little woodland was damag- ed and most of the fires con- centrated in grassy areas but some undergrowth was dami- | aged.

Winds approximately 15 miles per hour hampered the fighting | of the fires all-day and later in the afternoon increasing winds made the task even more dif-
