LIBERALS AND PC'S AGREE Liberal Party' and Progres- sive Conservative members agreed in•the House of Commons to push for a 200-mile offshore fishing limit at the 1974 Law of the Sea Conference in Chile. This proposal, outlined by Fisheries Minister Jack Davis in St. Andrew's N.B., is an at- tempt to restrict coastal fishing to Canadian fishermen. poison ivy suited immediately. The first sign of poisoning is, usually a light itching, followed by a faint blush on the skin. Within hours or days, small watery blisters appear and the itching becomes more intense. If it is impossible to consult a doctor immediately, a solution consisting of a 2 gram tablet of potassium permanganate dis- solved in a quart of water may be applied to the affected area, before the watery blisters have formed. Avoid rubbing the skin if the blisters are already pre- sent. Do not apply oily or greasy liniments. Contaminated clothing should be repeatedly washed with soap and water or dry-cleaned. If clothing is taken to a dry cleaner, it should be wrapped and labelled with warnings. Several •chemical weed killers can be used to eradicate poison ivy. The manufacturers' instruc- • tions should always be read care- fully before application' of the chemical. Among the effective chemicals are 2,4-D, Fenoprop (Silvex), and Ammate X. ' Late May and early, June are the best times to apply poison ivy control chemicals, as this is the period when the plants are in full growth.
