Purge 18 The Guardian Thulfi, APTI1 17w 1938 l Retired Naval Man Very Critical Of Credit Buying OTTAWA (CP)——The president of the Royal Canadian Naval Benevolent Fund Monday had some harsh words for credit buy- inn. Vice—Admiral Harold T. W. Grant, retired, said in his pres- idential report to the fund's an- nual meeting here “The noticeable increase in credit buying is directly attribut- able to high pressure salesman- ship and accepted as a normal, if an undesirable, product of our North American way of living. “Our files are studded with ap- plications of young men who bought telelrision sets, motor cars and household appliances with every prospect of an orderly payment over a year or two—un- til faced with some unforeseen contingen-cy: and their definition of the unforeseen is often at vari- nace with reality. MARJR-Y TOO SOON "This accepted attitude to- wards credit buying quite nat- urally encourages the premature acquisition of wives and children whose upkeep an a young sailor’s pay is difficult enough without the added burden of loans plus interest. “'I‘hu-s we are faced with cases of distress which should not have arisen at all. . . “While the fund exists to re- lieve and salvage cases of hard- ship beyond the individuals con- trol, it cannot condone and must combat improvidence. PAY OUT MORE Admiral Grant reported the fund provided financial assist- ance totalling $163,485 during 1957 to serving and former Cana- dian naval personnel and depend- ents. This was an increase of nearly $25,000 over the amount of money issued in grants and in- terest-free loans in 1956. Total number of applications for aid‘ approved during the year was 551. Of these, 359 were from former naval personnel. Admiral Grant also reported a “genuine and heartwarming up- surge” in contributions to the fund by pay assignment from naval personnel. I About 25 per cent of the active strength of the navy was volun- tarily contributing to the fund. Dona.tions by pay assignment in 1957 amounted to $32,012 com- pared to $9,623 in the previous year. The fund’s credti balance at Dec. 31 was $2,756,691, an in- Fisheries Council Meets HALIFAX (CP) -— Fisheries Council of Canada President 0.J. McDonald of Vancouver said here Monday the present system of Canadian fisheries needs study and “perhaps even painful re- aopvpraisal.” Effective‘ action must be taken in cost structure, efficiency of opera-Ions, quality of fish pro- ducts, pwblic relations and sales programs and artificial barriers. He told the 13th annual meeting of the council “we do not de- serve to be entrusted with har- vesting. processing, and market- . lnig Canada's fisheries unlesswe do our utmost to realize the full potential lying at our doorstep.” LIMITED LIVING Fish harvesting only provides a living for a given number of people. British Columbia had already passed the ‘saturation point. Where this point was reached there was a tendency to increase fish prices and give greater returns to an excessively large fleet. This was a basic fac- tor in the high cost structure of the industry. “We must be extremely con- cerned that every effort is being made to increase our foreign trad: through surmounting ex- change difficulties and reducing tariffs in major export markets. In this field we must look to government for consideration of Canada's fishing i~ndustr'y inter- ests. “Exploitation of our fishery re- source by other nations must be curbed. Protection of fisheries immediately adjacent to our coasts require alteration of inter- national law pertaining to ter- ritorial waters.” / POLLUTION PROBLEM Pollution of fishing waters from industrial and residential expansion was another problem facing fishermen. “The public demands better quality and value,” he said. “We must be~in tune with the times through an effective public rela- tions and sales program." Objects Drop From Skies Over Quebec MONTREAL (CPl——Reports of more objects dropping from the skies in the Eastern Townships were received Monday. John McGuire, owner of a 100- acre farm near Cookshire, Q-ue., i‘epor1:ed finding bits of what looked like aluminum foil or tin- sel in his fields. Meanwhile RCMP in Sher- brooke, Que., 100 miles east of M o n t r e a l, have investigated some objects found Monday night by Mrs. Claude Smith, wife of a farm~equipment salesman, near their three-acre farm at North Hatley, Que. There was speculation the ob- Liects come from the Russian’s Sputnik H or from RCAF radar tests. Sergeant Harvey Patenaude of the RCMP Sherbrooke detach- ment said he had no comment to make. Although RCAF sources would not comment, it was speculated the objects could be parts of a rocket or kite used for testing radar at the RCAF’s auxiliary squadron in Sherbrooke.

The 8,000 - ton United States freighter - Monmachawk w e nt aground on -the south bank of a channel. Tuvgs pulled her off an hour later, undamaged. Hanbor officials said absence of buoys marking the channel might have been partly responsible for the mishap. Buoys’ are not put into position until all ice is goe, they said. The Liberian vessel Urania had a power failure ju st below Jacques C‘-antler bridge and drifted about a quarter-mile be- fore a freighter and bugs came to her assistance. They reached her before she could collide with other ships or wharves. Still Repairing Storm Damage ST. JOHN’S (CP) —- Crews of the Newfoundland Ilight and Power Company are still rep~air- ing damage to poles and wires felled during a four—d-ay sleet storm that started Feb. 28. General Manager V. A. Ains- worth said Monday the transmis- sion line that carries electricity to Bell Island, 13 miles from here by road and water, will be “completely repaired in another week.” A second line from the Goulds switching station to St. John’s would be restored in 10 days. Local repair men are aided by a crew from Montreal who will stay on after the job is com- pleted to install new equipment in various parts of the province. The sleet storm disrupted all power _and communication lines on the Avalon Peninsula and left this city blacked out for 12 hours. Some communities were without electricity for two weeks. The storm was described by of- ficials as the worst in history for the amount of damage it did to power lines. Damage estimates have not been completed. HOWE ON CIF BOARD Caffltlflmfouit. THE RT.
