JOHN'S, Nfld. (CP)-- Long-distance walker Johnny Rowe, 37, arrived at the steps of Confederation Building here | on schedule Tuesday following | a 15-day 565-mile trek across Newfoundland. | | | | | | Safety Council Budget | Said "Totally Inadequate' By FRITS ROOS OTTAWA (CP) -- "My own driving record is pretty good," he says in his quiet way. "But let's knock on wood. Never ask for it." Philip J. Farmer, since April 4 the new man in the driver's seat at the Canadian Highway Safety Council headquarters in Ottawa, is well aware of every man's frailty where his own safety and that of others is con- cerned, After a seven-month prepara- tion as assistant to the execu- tive director, the 50-year-old en- gineer took ever the wheel from 65-year-old W. Arch Bryce--the driving force of the council since its inception in 1955, The new executive director, a native of Vancouver who came known across Canada as national president of the 25,000- member Junior Chamber of ao ca in 1951-52, is no rad- cal. He'll keep his foot firmly on the executive gas pedal, doesn't expect to make sudden turns and will steadily follow the course set by Mr. Bryce, a Tor- onto teacher and sports coach who attained the rank of lieu- ' tenant-colonel in the Second World War. SHORT OF MONEY As is common in most organ- izations depending on the vol- untary co-operation of individ- uals, governments, business and industry, money will be one of Mr. Farmer's biggest problems. "Our $150,000 budget is totally inadequate for what we want to do--for that, we need at least $500,000." : One-third of the council's in- come comes from the federal and provincial governments. 'The balance is contributed by business, mainly insurance companies, and industry. Stronger legal action against } ucation for Canada's youth are| foremost on Mr. Farmer's mind, The subjects quicken his cautious way of speaking. "Every year, some 330,000 | youngsters reach driver age. 1 doubt that one in every 20 even! has the chance to take qualified training." Saskatchewan is farthest ahead in this field but even there only 4,000 out of 17,000! youths can take advantage of the government - sponsored course, says Mr. Farmer, a father of four. "We have to reach them be- fore, not after, they get their licence, With young people it's the same for everything; once they have their papers they think they know everything." ROSE THROUGH RANKS With his wife, the former Berniece Gilbert of Vancouver, he spends his free hours listen- ing to hi-fi, and in the summer at a cottage. He also curls and) bowls. | He considers his quarter-cen- tury career with English Elec-| tric Co. of Canada Ltd. at Tor- onto, St, Catharines, Ont., and Winnipeg a long preparation for| the post he now fills. | An honors graduate in | plied science and electrical en-| gineering of the University of| British Columbia, he joined the| company in 1939 and climbed) through the various stages of | sales and contracts engineer to| managerial positions. | He resigned in August last/ year to move his family from} the company's Toronto head-| quarters to the capital. "Our work isn't very spectac- ular," he says. "The council is a national, co-ordinating organ- ization. Most work dealing with | the public is done by the pro-| vincial and local councils, We] listen, talk, organize, promote, drunken driving and driver ed- prod, persuade." Greater Stability On Way For The Vegetable Industry OTTAWA (CP)--Greater sta- bility is in prospect for Can- ada's vegetable industry be- cause of increasing consump- tion of its processed products, the agriculture department re- ports. : The processing part of the in- dustry is more stable. For one thing, the Canadian climate fa- vors the growth of high-quality vegetables suitable for process- 2g. For another, processed vege- tables--treated to keep for long periods--can be marketed year! round, Fresh vegetables must) be marketed promptly or they go bad. Another stabilizing factor is| the practice of growing vege-| tables under contract at prices guaranteed by the processors. | The consumption shift to pro- cessed vegetables from the fresh variety will go along with rapid developments in process- ing techniques. Such "keeping" operations as dehydrofreezing, quick freezing, dehydration and irradiation will be refined as well as adapted to new products. Processed veg- etables will be made more ready for the dinner table than they are now. Puff-dried carrots may some Gay be bought in cereal-type eventually side by side on| Supermarket shelves, | _ Processed vegetable consump-| tion rose 80 per cent in a decade | to 63 pounds per person in 1963. | Frozen vegetable consumption rose from 1.1 pounds per person in 1953 to 4.7 in 1963, All told, about 60 per cent of the total Canadian vegetable crop is processed, 90 per cent of this going into cans. Frozen food takes up most of the re- mainder. Other processing tech- niques such as dehydration and | irradiation are only in limited| use. | MAY PRODUCE STARCH SASKATOON (CP)--The Sas- katchewan Research Council says production of potato | |Starch, used in the purification | of potash, could become a sec- | ondary industry in the prov-| ince. Potash processors at pres-| ent import it from Alberta or| the U.S. The council says each | of Saskatchewan's six existing | or developing potash mines will | need about 600 tons of starch | annually, | FROM PLAY TO Tv | Jack Albertson, after touring | for two years in the play The| Subject Was Roses, returned to} Hollywood for an episode of the dered to pay. $88.55 for windows | Nee vm WILSON FURNITURE Our store and warehouse ore overstocked. badly.
