CANADIAN SPUDS FLOOD U. S. MARKET: Washington, D. C.—
Senate agriculture committee member Guy M. Gillette of Iowa,
left, and committee chairman Elmer Thomas of Oklahoma, center,
question Washington produce dealer George W. Davis about Cana¬
dian potatoes which have invaded the U. S. market, while millions
of bushels of “surplus” home-grown tubers rot on the ground at high
cost to the American taxpayer. Wholesalers report the Canadian
potatoes sell for 20 cents less per hundred pounds than do the same
grade of Maine potatoes.

NOW COMPLETE
(Continue from page one)
tracts.
William H. Riddlespurger of
Moultrie, Ga., who represented
the Southern Association of Muni¬
cipalities for Natural Gas, told a
reporter he believed Atlantic’s
case was amply sufficient to get
a certificate.
Wilkinson said his company j
wants to get the pipeline started j
as soon as possible. Gas would be j
purchased from Southeastern ■
Louisiana and Mississippi. At
lantic is a subsidary of the Unit
ed Gas System.
Tom McGrath, attorney for the I
National Coa! Association, in urg- |
ing conclusion of the hearing,
said “I don’t believe I have ever
seen a case where so much pres
sure has been brought to bear
upon the staff and the commis- ,
as in this one by the members j
of Congress and others.”
Charles Shannon, attorney for
Southern Natural Gas Co., a sec¬
ond applicant in the case, said his
was not ready to proceed
although it still is interested in
serving the territory.
The commission’s staff counsel
informed the company yesterday
that unless such a showing is
made it cannot recommend the
company be granted a cerificate.
A statement read by attorney
Goldberg said the showing
in lengthy hearings to date
is “insufficient”.
Atlantic attorney Scott Wilkin¬
received the counsel’s state¬
ment for study. He promised an
early answer.
Atlantic applied for a certifi¬
cate to pipe gas from Louisiana
and Mississipp fields to 55 com¬
in Alabama, Georgia and
A hearing began last
with sessions at Tallahas¬
Fla., and Savannah, Ga., and
here last December.
Atlantic completed its direct
yesterday just before
Goldberg read the state¬
ment calling on the company to
that it can supply gas at
to justify users to change
from other fuels.
It asked specifically for prices
at which fuel oil can be bought
in the area to be served and for
of contracts showing prices
and terms by which Atlantic pro¬
poses to supply natural gas.
Atlantic was requested also for
assurance' that its Jackson . and
New Orleans district reserves will
be used for the next 20 yeats to
supply only those districts and the
Atlantic Gulf.
The commission’s counsel said
it w r as satisfied that there is a de¬
mand for natural gas in the 55
southeastern communities, “at
least by residential, commercial
and small industrial consumers in
this important portion of the
country.”
Ga. Public Service
Commission Recesses
Hearing In Atlanta
The Georgia Public Service
Commission recessed the hear¬
ings late Wednesday on the /CCL
Railway application for curtail¬
ment of night - passenger t,rain
service between Savannan and
Montgomery. This report came
Thursday morning from Louis
Powell, manager of the Chamber
of Commerce, who w£s attending
the hearing in Atlanta in the in¬
terest of local groups.
The hearing is to be resumed
March 20. The curtailment of
night passenger train service on
this route through Cairo would
be a distinct disadvantage to the
area, and is opposed by this en
tive section of the country.
