Canada's Potato Trade Hindered Saint John, N.B,-- The price Canada would likely pay for the removal of the British embargo on Canadian potatoes fs too high, according to B. Frank Smith, has been active ip promoting the M.P., for Carleton-Victoris, who search for further outlets for this important New Brunswick agri- cultural product, Canada maintsins an embarge against potatoes from Great Bri- tain. This was established due to the prevalence of wart disease Canada growers. "Great Britain is not prepared to remove the ban on Canadian potatoes unless the Canadian bar- rier is also removed," Hon, H, H. Stevens, Minister of Trade-and Commerce for Canada, stated In a letter to Mr, Smith. The Cans dian Department of Agricultural claimed that lifting of the Cana- dian embargo would open east- ern Canada to the menace of the wart disease and probably result fn the prohibition of entry of Canadian potatoes into the United States--one of the Dominion's principal present - markets, the letter stated. Difficult Situation "We are therefore confronted with a very difficult situation in that Great Britain considers the mantenance of this embargo against English pelatoes as rea son sufficient to warrant them maintaining an embargo against ours," wrote Hon, Mr, Stevens in reply to a letter from Mr, Smith urging efforts to open up the British market. "On the other hand, if we re- move the embargo we risk thé loss of the American market, and perhaps other countries," con- tinues Mr, Stevens, "in spite of this we are persevering in our efforts to secure the removal of the British embargo, but I con- fess, in tLe light of the above, hopeful."
