"One of the key projects for the Atlantic Development Board! should be the immediate imple- mentation of greater heated fa- cilities for handling potatoes and other perishable products," he said, '"'To make money, we have to spend money." Some Portuguese buyers su- pervising loading of freighters here were pleased with storage conditions used by New Bruns- wick grovers. '"'But they were sadly disappointed when they saw the very limited heated fa-| cilities available for loading." They had wondered "'if Can- ada intended to remain in the potato exporting business» or was it just a passing phase." TASTE ACQUIRED Outlook for New Brunswick potato farmers is bright be- cause markets with a great pop- ulation now have acquired a taste and a demand for them, Mr. Zatzman said, but sales to Europe this year should not be delayed. "There are tremendous surp- luses of potatoes in Europe, and any sales that are to be made would have to be concluded within the next few weeks." When normal weather returns to Europe, prices will decline because new crops will be start- ing in the Mediterranean area. "Furthermore, the surplus stocks in Europe will force prices downward so that it's to the best interests of Canadian growers to complete their ship- ments before fhe downward trend." Mr. Zatzman said his com- pany recently established an of- fice in Spain because that coun- try has a "flourishing, growing, free economy with President Franco only acting as a benevo- lent director." Spain was a good entrance to the European mar- ket. McCormack and Zatzman Ltd., said tc be the largest po- tato shipper in Canada, also ex- ports sea products.
