IT- SRGQM. 208 kEST BLOCK The "Save the Seals" protest almost fizzled as a scant 20 interested citizens, a minority of which even had protest signs, responded to Miss Jennie McKendrys cau to support seal sanctuary in the Gulf of St Lawrence But almost at the same time as the small group was meeting with fisheries department representatives, minister Jack Davis was announcing the closing of tbe seal bunt part of of the Gulf of St Lawrence because of concern over con servation of the seal stock. The minister Rated a number of factors, such as na-aawl ice connltlops and the relative small size of the herd ht the area, for the closing of the area NwUaasibeT" land Strait pros aa area of a fine drawn from fnialaiy NB, North Point, PEL to Cape St Lawrence, Cape Breton Island.

Sealing will continue in other parts of the Gulf and it is estimated 35,000 seals' (of the 50,000 quota) have been taken. Miss McKendry, along with the majority of the Saturday protest group, would prefer to see all sealing in the Gulf pro hibited. TOURIST PROPOSITION Instead, she suggests Canada establish a seal sanctuary that would utilize all of the free, to date bad, publicity about the seal hunt throughout the world. She sees the area as- a viable tourist proposition, attractive porticulaity to tbe large num ber of naturalists throughout the world. The sanctuary, she suggests.

might also absorb many of the men who now depend heavily on seal hunting for their livelihood. They could be used either as guards for the sanctuary or as highly-paid tourist guides for the unique, floating ice "zoo." R. Levelton. director of conservation and protection in file an application and a compulsory $25 for publication in a trademarks journal. It takes, six months for the application to be processed and a year for registration to be completed.

Assistant Registrar Gilles Payette says there are normally about 10,000 applications pending not to mention a backlog of 5,000. A company can can a pro duct just about anything and get away with it NO SURNAMES But If John D. Yak wanted to trademark his product "Yak's Yummy Yams," tbe only word he could register would be "yummy." Family names or descriptions of a product are forbidden. The only exception would be a sur name associated with a prod uct where the two are synonymous. Every 15 years the registration must be renewed If the claim to remain "live" otherwise automatically cancelled.

If your trademark becomes popular you can capitalize on a good thing and loan It out for a profit This happened with' many well-known comic strip characters such as Super-! man. who first burst his chains on th cover of detective magazines in 1941. ALMOST DOUBLE Since Mr. Payette first became employed by the trademarks department 15 years ago he has seen tbe number of applications almost double from 5,000 to 1,000 annually. He claims this results from a combination of increased public awareness and an increase in small business establishments.

The newest trademarks don't have any monopoly on catchi- ness. -In 1895, the G. T. Fulford Co. Ltd.

ofBrockville came up with a precocious trademark on a pink label "Pink Pills for Pale People." A few years later, it originated one of the first bilingual labels in Canada with the French counterpart. "Pilules Pink Pour Personnel Pales." Every country favors a certain symbol. United States manufacturers patronize Uncle Sam and the English, John But Canada avers tbe maple leaf forever and ever. On chocolate, butter, Mondcy, March 17, 1969 MEETING I I fiira the department of fisheries, explained to the protest group about 1,000 men do serious seal hunting each year (out of about 6,000 who obtain licences). The bant results ht about $2J0M of partuny.

finished white seal pup pelts, most of winch are exported. For the men involved, the seal bunt not only supplements their minimal incomes (about $1,200 per year) but comes at a time when any work is welcome, Mr. Levelton said. TOO SOON John Mullally, executive assistant to Mr. Davis, told the protest group tbe minister was seriously analyzing the possibility of a seal sanctuary but it was too soon for him to say anything else.

He andJMr. Levelton noted the major conservation problem far the seals ocean sat in toe Gulf but along the front" off northeast Newfoundland and tbe coast of sT -4a a- t- -i niiiil i YOUNG PROTESTERS 'These three young ladies want the government to establish a sanctuary for seals hunted each spring off Canada's east coast The signs they carried on Parliament Hill Saturday illustrated their demands. j0Mrna, 0.1., Davis Closes Some Sealing Areas for Conse rvati on Since the Ice floes carrying the migrating seals are primar ily in international along this "front," Norwegian wea as Canadian, sealers participate in the hunt' Canada will meet again hi June with Norway and other fishing nations at a meeting of the International Committee for the North-West Atlantic Fish eries in Warsaw, Poland. Fish- deparbnent representa tives are hoping at this time to establish an agieeuient between Norway and Canada on a quota for the seal bunt The two countries- already have agreements about opening and closing dates, methods of hunting and time during the day for hmmng. As many, as- 100,000 seals are killed each year on the fed this is more than the safe limit for the seal herd to sur vive, let alone grow.

Rifleman Robs Hull Gas Station A Hull gas station was rob bed of about $160 early today by two men pretending they needed help. Norman Labonte. 47, an at tendant at the Shell Station on Tache Boulevard at St Joseph Boulevard, said a car without lights drove in about 2.15 ajn. Two men were inside. The car stopped near the sta tion door, Mr.

Labonte said. and a man in his early 20s wearing a hat started to ease himself out of the passenger thought the guy needed help he was crouched over and when he turned toward me he had a white handkerchief over his face, said Mr, La bonte. "When I moved through the door he pulled a sawed -off XI rifle from his pocket "Open the cash I want the money" be told me. "Naturally I opened up." Then he told me to give him the money in my pocket I used to make change. Mr.

Labonte said the man then told him to get to the back of the station and remain there. The car sped off west along Tache Boulevard. All area police were notified and a search was under-way for a grey 1960 automobile and its two occupants.

Morse's Indian Root Pills, the oldest registered trademark (1863), promises to cure your cold and bronchitis ills with their pilb for 25 cents a bottle. A cameo portrait of an old Indian chief assures as these are genuine Indian root pills. Early labels were garnished generously with, cherubs, medals, queens and a conglomeration of opulent parapher nalia.

Three Charles McLean, operator of; tbe Howe Island ferry on tbe St Lawrence River near Can ine, glanced around his craft during a crowing Sunday night and noticed tbe only car aboard bad disappeared. Tbe car had slipped off toe small ferry, taking two women and a man to their deaths in about 51 feet of water, half way across the quarter-mile channel between Howe Island and Bish op's Point. Youths Seek Directions, Grab Purse Three youths in a light green car asked a West End woman for directions at I.S0 p.m. Sat urday, then snatched her purse as she approached the car to answer.

The KaeaOwoitB--A Ttil woman said the snatching took place as she was walking south on Hamilton Avenue near 'her home. Tbe purse contained only small amount of change. About 45 minutes later three youths in a car tried a similar stunt on Broadway Street in the Glebe but the woman involved foiled them by clinging to her purse. Police in Hull. Vanier and Ottawa have warned women not to approach strange cars at night to answer requests for directions.

Several purse-snatchings have now occurred in this way in all three dties in the last week.
