Attorney General Pugsley. who re-
turned. tonight. after a meeting of the
government in Fredericton, said that
whether or not the GOV ernment would
intervene would necessarily depend
upon whether it could be shown that
the navigation of the river was inter-
fered with by the Van Buren, Lumber
Co to such an extent as to require him
as attorney neral to take action sim
liar to that which he was institutlng
against the St. John Lumber Co. The
question could soon be determined in
the courts and he trusted there would
be some reasonable concessions made
by both parties pending decision.

the government vet. Mr.. Pugsl"y said
that until the difficulty with Mr.. Pond
arose he had not understood the van
Ruren Cos. works constituted serious
obstruction to navigation.
