Three expert witnesses from the federal agriculture depart- ment ducked demands to name names and point fingers at pos- sible rake-offs between farm and family table. Denied that satisfaction, the Commons-Senate committee on living costs sent the witnesses away to gather more figures. "Senator David Croll (L--On- Cc. R.

Before it was fin- ished the company was "pretty well forced to sell the hotel." In mid-1963 Grand Bahamas Development decided to sell the hotel. Adobe Ltd. and Freeport International, both Manus com- panies, agreed to buy it, with GBD .taking a $5,000,000 first mortgage. After the sale was completed, Mr. Chesler said he met Mr. Manus and C. Powell Morgan, president of Atlantic. Asked why Mr. Morgan was there, he said: "T guess he personally brought the cheque for $1,540,- 000, representing the down pay- ment." "I told Mr. Morgan I didn't think it was a first-class invest- ment for him." When Atlantic's creditors moved to seize the hotel follow- ing Atlantic's collapse, Mr. Manus was paid $2,600,000 for his ownership interest. Mr. Chesler, Peterborough high school,.made a fortune in mining stocks dur- ing more than 20 years of trad- ing. In the 1950s he went to New York where he became one of the biggest business pro- moters in the U.S. to those in the U.S. Mr. Bennett and ¥ B. Wil- liams, an assistant deputy min- ister, said they cannot show how the growing amount in be- tween is carved up at meat- packing, distribution and retail stages. They promised to trace sample prices at each step for a single product. The committee announced during the day that it will con- fine its special mandate from Parliament to inquires on food costs for the time being. School Board Takes Bus Line Contracts COOKSVILLE, Ont.
