$7 Million Subsidy
Recommended for
North Ont. Railway
OTTAWA, March 15 (CP) — A.ther than operating trains—of the
subsidy estimated at $7,000,000 a
year was recommended today by
the Royal Commission on Transportation to help meet the cost
of the railway "bridge" between
East and West across sparsely-
settled  Northern Ontario,
It was the only new cash aid
to transportation proposed by the
Commission,   which   rejected   all
Canadian National Railways and
Canadian Pacific Railway in the region North of Lake. Superior.
The subsidy would pay maintenance costs of the C.P.R.'s mam line
between Sudbury and Fort William—550 miles—and a corresponding amount,of trackage in the same
area for the C.^I.R.  ■
Major subsidy proposal to be re-
requests made to It for other newi jected by the Commission was that
subsidies or for enlargement of
existing assistance of this kind.
The East-West subsidy proposal
was made to the Commission originally by the United Farmers of
Alberta Cooperative, Ltd., which
declared it was justified on the
ground Canada is a country of two
areas of civilization separated by
a relative "economic desert'.' along
the Northern rail line.
The' Commission suggested the
subsidy could be used to lessen the
•burden of freight rates for the
West, whose geographical location
forces it to bring,in its commodities over long distances and ship
Its products to distant markets.
It was not proposed specially that
rates over the 550-mile bridge
would be slashed by $7,000,000 a
year, but. the money would go into
the railways' general revenues as
part of a general plan for equalizing
the impact of rates in East and
West. The rates now are higher in
the West. x
The Commission said the Northern Ontario East-West link is a
long stretch of territory which originates little revenue traffic. It
would appear suitable, the report
said, that the cost of maintaining
this portion of the transcontinental
system should he charged to the
Treasury.
The subsidy, the Commission
suggested, should be particularly
effective In reducing the cost of
goods moving from Eastern Canada to the West. Eastbound traffic from the West, It observed,
already Is aided considerably by
statutory low rates on grain and
grain products,
Basis of the subsidy, as outlined
By the Commission, would be the
maintenance costs—that is, the expenses of keeping up the lines ra-
of. the' Saskatchewan Government,
which had advocated two forms of
Government assistance to hnld
down the impact of freight rales
regionally. ■, t
One called for an extension to
the Prairies of the principle of the
Maritime Freight Rates Act of 1927,
under which the Treasury pays for
20 per cent reductions in the freight
charges on some Maritime .-oil
movements.
Saskatchewan's .proposal would
have,Drought subsidized reductions
on all freight hauls within, into and
out of the prairie provinces—a wider application than in the Maritimes. It would have cost an estimated $40,000,000 a year compared
with about $9,000,000 in the Maritimes.
The second Saskatchewan request
was for a system of "deficit subsidies," under which the rate-regulating Board of Transport Commissioners would have been empowered to recommend subsidies
instead of higher freight rates if
the railways were faced with inadequate   revenues.
Requests for extension of the
assistance given under the Maritime Freight Rates Act also were
rejected by .the Board. These
proposals varied with the three
provinces. One was for an enlargement of the subsidized, reduction from 20 to 30 per cent.
Others 'called for applying the
reduction to more types of traffic than enjoy It now.
From several of the other provinces, too, had come varying proposals for subsidies, most of them
suggested as alternatives to further
rail rate increases, None of them
was recommended by the Com-
I mission.

government.
Action was taken through the

low Crow* Nesl
OTTAWA, Marh 15 (CP) - Federal legislation guaranteeing the
West Its low "Crow's Nest Pass"
freight rates on grain and grain
products should stay on the statute
books for the present, the Royal
Commission on Transportation told
parliament today.
The commissio nsaid repeal of the
1925 grain-rate statute might be
undertaken at some future time, but
at present it would be against the
national interest to cause this "disturbance" to the grain industry.
This finding nailed down the certainty that the grain rates — storm
- centre 'of one of the hottest controversies before the commission in its
■two-year inquiry — are not going
to be touched for some time at least.
Transport Minister Chevrier told
parliament last year the government does not intend to seek repeal
of' the act. The commission report
undoubtedly will strengthen that
attitude.
Repeal of the legislation was
sought before the commission by
the Canadian Pacific Railyway,
which argued the depressed rates
were costing it between $13,000,000
and $16,000,000 a year »n export
grain movements in the West.
The C.P.R. originally negotiated
the grain rates with the Federal
Government in the 1890s in return
for a subsidy to help it build a line
through the Rockies' Crow's Nest
Pass — from which the rates get
/their name. They were later written
into legislation.
In the stiff fight over the fate
of the special rates, they were upheld before the commission by the
governments of the Prairie provinces and by a contingent of witnesses
representing all major segments of
the Western grain industry. They
termed the Crow's Nest legislation
the backbone of the West's economy
and declared that repeal would be
a disastrous blow tb the West.
Iran Threatens
Major Oil Wells
■ TEHRAN-Jrim, Marsh,13.(AjPJSJ
Iran's parliament today' unanimously approved a proposal to nationalize all the country's oil resources,
including the wells of the huge,
British-owned Anglo-Iranian Oil
Company.
By a standing vote the Majlis
(parliament) confirmed the decision
of a special parliamentary oil commission endorsing nationalization,
and gave the commission another
two months in which to work out
specific details.
The vole was the climax of growing Anti-British demonstrations in
recent months. It I came one week
after Premier Ali Razmara, who
opposed nationalization, was assassinated by a Moslem"fanatic who
accused the Premier of selling the
country to foreigners.
British diplomats and oil company
officials, last Fall openly scornful
of the nationalization talk, now feel
the situation gravely threatens one
of Britain's major oil sources.

Free Market
For Gold Asked
OTTAWA, March 15 (CP)—Representatives of Ontario and Quebec
gold-mining communities—some of
them threatened with extinction
in the current cost-price crisis —
today appealed to the Government
for the right to a free market for
gold.   .        ,
A 22-member delegation ,said the
recently - announced increase in
Federal subsidies would not be sufficient to maintain the gold-mining
industry at'even the 1950 level.
"The gold - mining communities
are at an all-time low," the representatives said in a brief presented
to External Affairs Minister Pearson, Veterans Minister Lapointe
and Revenue Minister McCann.
Prime Minister St. Laurent, who
was to have attended, was delayed
in the Common's. <
Mr. Pearson, expressing the sympathy of the Government, explained
that the International Monetary
Fund, the International gold policymaking body for 49 countries, had
declined to grant Canada's request,
Instead it approved of the Canadian Government's alternative idea
of increasing its subsidy to. Can
ada's gold.mlning industry. This in-
crease -would add about 5:1,000,000
to 'the previous subsidy program,
bringing it to about $11,000,000 in

It appears that most, if not all,
of this expansion will be done by
the Government or the publicly-
owned Canadian National Railways,
the Commission declared in its report tabled in Parliament.

WEST OFFERS
FINAL BID
Gromyko Reserves
Decision on
Compromise Scheme
PARIS, March 15 (CP) — The
Western powers submitted a compromise proposal at the "big1 four"
talks here today which, said Ernest
Davies of Britain, represented "'important concessions" and the limit
to which they could go.
Andrei Gromyko, Soviet deputy
foreign minister reserved his final
verdict.
The dilemma which the compromise seeks to resolve Is the
clash between Russian Insistence
that Germany's demilitarization
should heald any agenda for a big
four foreign ministers' conference
and the Western.view that this
should be discussed In the context
of present East-West tension and
Its causes. «     "
The original Western draft agenda
proposed discussion of "the causes
of tension" first and the German
problem second. :
■ Today's compromise proposal, put
forward by Philip Jessup of the
United States, combined-both—plus
other subjects the Russians considered Important—under one subject heading which is to top the
agenda.
This combined agenda item now
reads:
"The examination of the causes
of present international tension in
Europe and of the means to secure
a real and lasting improvement in
the relations between the Soviet
Union, the United States, Britain
and France, such as the existing
level of armaments, its effects on
the question of the demilitarization
of Germany,and the means for the
control and reduction of armaments,
measures -to eliminate the fear of
aggression,' fulfillment of present
treaty obligations."

Would Appoint
Older Men to Senate
OTTAWA, March 15 (CP) — A
66-year-old Senator-farmer from
.Blaine Lake, Sask., said today that
talk of a retiring age for Senators
is like 'unravelling a ball of twine
from the wrong end."
Senator Ralph Horner, who came
to the Senate as a Progressive Conservative appointee in 2933. said
that instead of retiring Senators at
75, there ought to be a resolution
raising the minimum appointment
age from 30 to 50 or 60 years of age.
Main public, criticism of the
Senate, he told his colleagues during a debate on Senate reform, is
not age so much as some of them
are "staying too long." Boosting
the appointment age would mean
that older men of greater experience would be appointed to tho
102-member upper chamber.

The Commission had been asked

a surcharge ,of a half-cent a mile
on B.C. fares, imbosed because of
mountain operation in part of the
province.       '
The Commission termed this an
"anomaly," but said the province

Board of Transport Commissioners,
which regulates the railways.

All along that 100-mile front, the

U. S. soldiers rode tanks into
Hongchon. They met only small-

On hand to greet the Americans

Until recently' it was a major Chinese assembly area, but the Reds
pulled North in a series of rearguard actions.
The Reds are believed massing
at Chunchon, 16 air miles North-
tvest of Hongchon and 45 air miles
Northeast of Seoul. Correspondents
said it seemed logical that the
Chinese would make a determined
stand at Chunchon.
For weeks the Reds have poured

Northwest and Northeast. They had
to move mostly at night to escape

Take Second Vole
On Medical Fees
NATAL, B.C., March 15 — At a
meeting of the Michel Medical Association held in the Union hall at
Natal recently a motion was passed
that a second vote be taken regard'
ing the doctors' question which has
been under discussion for some
time. A few weeks ago the employees of the Crow's Nest Pass Coal
Company at Michel rejected by a
large majority the Michel doctors
proposal of raising the fees from
the present $27.00 a year to $39.00.
The new doctors proposal which
will be voted on this week is each
employee to pay the sum of $2.75
every four weeks. (2) arrangements
would be made by the doctors to
make some provision for maternity
care in the Michel hospital provided
tha,t it would be at no cost to the
doctors. (3) in the future the doctors fees would be guided by the
miners basic wage scale, and.would
increase or decrease on a straight
percentage basis.
Only employees of the C.N.P. Coal
Company, Michel mines, will have
a vote.

Incorporation Steps Described
To Fruitvale Audience
FRUITVALE, B.C., March 15 —
The Institute Hall was packed to
capacity to hear Harold Watson and
Ross McDairmitt of Kinnaird and
R. Street and W. Hearn of Salmo
give talks on "Incorporation". Harvey Dilling was chairman bf the
meeting which was sponsored by
the Fruitvale Ratepayers Association.
Mr. Watson of Kinnaird spoke
first and dealt with steps taken to
be incorporated, based on his experiences in working for the Castlegar and Kinnaird incorporation.
Mr. McDairmitt dealt with after
incorporation and explained how
the finances are found to carry on
the work of the council, using the
1950 financial sheet of Kinniard as
an illustration. He said tl.at the fewer "by-laws" a village had the better, as too many lend to confusion.
Both of these gentlemen were
asked many questions, dealing with
taxes and roads.
Mr.' Street of Salmo spoke of how
Salmo felt about Incorporation and
he said they were only sorry they
hadn't taken the step sooner. He
used the financial sheet of Salmo to
illustrate his talk and as Salmo is
very similiar to Fruitvale, his audience was much impressed with his
information. For fire protection he
said, the council paid towards the
upkeep of fire fighters and collected $2. each from each householder
for the protection.
Mr. Hearn spoke briefly on Salmo and what it had gained from incorporation, but answered many
questions on the procedure of incorporation, as did Mr. Watson, and
also on taxation,
A general discussion was held after the talks and the meeting left
it in the hands of the Fruitvale
Ratepayers Association for immediate steps in presenting petitionsfor
incorporation.

Officer Haddad was serving
aboard the destroyer H.M.C.S.

First it was just a nagging pain in
the right shoulder, a pain that increased in intensity until the arm
was practically useless.
Examination revealed a torn
shoulder musCles, souvenir of a ring
battle.
It was sick bay for Eddie.
They flew him home from the
Athabaskan for an operation to knit
that shoulder muscle together.
With only the briefest "hello" to
the girl he had married two months
before sailing for Korea, he was
packed off to the navy hospital at

Down to 130 pounds, the slim

on his way to the Canadian lightweight crown. This last battle has
taken more out of him than all
the others, but he still has that
confident  grin.

Buffer Prices Up
Margarine Sales
By the Canadian Press
Canadian housewives, faced with
soaring butter prices brought on by
a seasonal shortage, appear to be
turning in increasing numbers to
margarine as a means of cutting
down food bills.
At Vancouver, where the retail
price of butter, skyrocketed from 63
to 82 cents a pound Wednesday, the
manager of a large West-coast grocery chain said margarine sales have
"increased considerably" lately.
A Canadian Press survey showed
butter prices rising and margarine
sales booming in every province except Quebec, where sale of margarine is illegal. Quebec, with butter
selling from 84 to 66 cents a pound
was the only province reporting
butter under 70.

"Clarinets, saxophones, all the
drum equipment and many rare La-

Mr. Glums said.

A shovel operator who posed as
an Oakalla guard will be sentenced
today for defrauding a city woman
of $25.
Paul E. Calve, 43, of Victoria, according to the victim, went to her
home Feb. 20 and told hei that her
boy friend, in Oakalla, required
money to augment his jail rations.

woman as a guard at the prison
farm, she said, and warned *er not
to contact the prison or ho would
lose his job.
The woman went to a bank, cashed a cheque, and gave Calve $25
to buy sugar, butter, and other
staples for the prisoner.

woman had become suspicious because Calve did not wear a guard's
uniform.

ANDREI VISHINSKY
CHAMPION TALKER
By OEWITT MacKENZIE
Associated PreflB News Analyst
On of the most devastating analyses of the talk-fest regularly sponsored by the United Nations is presented with humorous undertone
in the March issue of United Nations' World Magazine, by correspondent Petpr Kihss.
A deluge of more than 680,000
words swept through the 50 plenary
meetings of the U.N. assembly alone
in 1950. Of this stupefying flood, 40.
per cent came from the five-country
Soviet Bloc—the record.
By contrast, the United States-
talked 4.49 per cent of the wordage.
Having established these relative
figures, author Kihss pulls this rabbit out bf the hat:
..That seems to say that the Red
Bloc talks approximately eight
times as much as the United States,
and is assessed roughly one-quarter
as much in dues. The reader can
draw his own conclusions as to the
significance of this financial computation.
CHAMPION TALKER
And who is the champion talker?
You are given one guess, and there
will be no reward when you come
up with the correct answer: Andrei
Vishinsky, of cause.
Russia's 67-year-old foreign minister long has ranked as one of
Communism's mort striking orators.
The shortest speech of all in the
plenarles was delivered by Greek
delegate, Alexis Kyrou, In welcoming Indonesia as the 60th member of
the peace organization, Kyrou said:
"Congratulations to Indonesia;
congratulations tb the U. N."
Canada Aims at
Lower Tariffs
OTTAWA, March 15 (CP) —
Canada Is negotiating with Cuba
to reduce the tariff on sugar In
return for a lower tariff on Canadian manufactured goods, Informed quarters disclosed today.
The negotiations form part of
the hottest losuen at the multi-
nation tariff conference at Torquay, England,
Australia, for one, has suggested
to Canada that the negotiations
with Cuba be broken off, fearing
they would strj^e a blow against
Commonwealth sugar sales in Canada.
Last year Canada imported about
1,260,000,000 pounds of sugar, mostly
from the Commonwealth, at a cost
of about $76,000,000. Among leading
exporters, Jamaica got $16,000,000
worth of the trade, British Guiana
$13,600,000 and Australia, $11,000,-
000. Less than $500,000 worth was
Imported from Cuba.
Reason for this big trade in the
Commonwealth's favor is that Canada grants the Commonwealth a
British preferential tariff of 28
cents a hundredweight, on sugar.
Cuba must pay $1.28 a hundredweight.
The negotiations at Torquay are
aimed at lowering the difference,
as part of Canada's policy to eliminate tariff discrimination wherever
possible.
Would Let Railways
Save by Abandoning
Unnecessary Lines
OTTAWA, March 15 (CP)—Proposals for economies in rail operation, contained in the report of the
Royal Commission on Transportation included:
1. That Parliament keep a closer
check on joint co-operative savings
effected by the two big railways in
conformity .with a 1933 .statute
ordering this.
2. That the railways be allowed
to practise economies by abandoning Jines where they are found unnecessary or unprofitable.
OTTAWA, March 15 (CP) —
Prime Minister St Laurent told
the Commons today there is no
dissension in his Cabinet in the
controversy springing from the
Anglo-Canadian wheat agreement,
To keynote Cabinet solidarity on
the issue, he told the chamber:
"On the facts, we are agreed; on
the policy, we are agreed; on the
recommendation we are going to
make lo Parliament, we are
agreed."
He said that recommendation—
a $65,000,000 Federal contribution
to the Prairie Wheat Pool — Is
being made because the Government feels that It Is partly responsible   for  the   belief   among
Western   wheat   producers   that
they are entitled to more money
under the contract.
Mr. St. Laurent spoke as another
phase of the prolonged debate over
the contract, which ended July 31
last, occupied the Commons.
He was replying to George Drew,
Progressive Conservative Leader,
who asked Mr. St. Laurent to
"reconcile" what he said were diverging viewpoints expressed on
the issue by Agriculture Minister
Gardiner and Trade Minister Howe.
TWO CHOICES
Stressing that Cabinet solidarity
was the foundation of Canada's system of parliamentary government,
Mr. Drew noted that in the ordinary course a minister who dissented
with the Cabinet either reconciled
his views or resigned.
The wheat dispute centres around
a clause in the agreement under
which Canada delivered more than
600,000,000 bushels of Prairie grain
to the United Kingdom during a
four-year period.
Under the contentious clause, tha
U.K. agreed in setting prices for
the last two years of the agreement
to "have regard to" the low price
—$1.55 a bushel—at which she got
wheat supplies ln the first two
years.
A8KED EXPLANATION
The price finally set for the last
two years was $2 a bushel and, a

TRANSPORTATION
OTTAWA, March 15 (CP) -
Transportation disadvantages bear
most heavily on the provinces away
from the centre of Canada, the
Royal Commission on Transportation found in Its report tabled today in the Commons,
The Commission said freight-rate
increases do not have anywhere
near the effect in Ontario and Quebec that they do in the outlying
provinces. It listed major disadvantages of the non-central provinces, including:
BRITISH COLUMBIA    ,
1. Like the Maritimes and the
Prairies, British Columbia is located far from its chief external
markets, but the effect of distance
is moderated by the availabllty of
water transportation to overseas
markets.
2. British Columbia gets its chief
capital and consumer goods from
other parts of Canada.
3. B.C. is subject to "the usual
vulnerability of a Canadian primary producer selling in foreign
markets and .buying in a protected
market."   ■
year ago, .the British Government
Informed Canada that It felt it had
fulfilldd legal obligations. The Canadian Cabinet accepted that as the
U.K. position.
Mr. Drew asked for an explanation of statements made to the
Commons by Mr. Gardiner and Mr.
Howe.
In one, Mr, Gardiner was quoted as suggesting that the U.K.
had refused to fulfill Its obligations under the contract; In the
other, Mr, Howe was quoted at
■aylng he deplored that In any
government under a parllamen
tary system all members "do not
necessarily always have the same
thoughts or use the tame expressions." They obviously did not
have the same views.
But his Cabinet, he • said, was
agreed on policy on conclusions. It
was agreed on these four essential
points:
1. That the U.K. Government had
discharged its "legal obligations"
under the 'contract. Those obligations were to pay $1.55 a bushel in
the first two years and not less than
$1.25 and $1 in the third and fourth
years, respectively,
"That was all there was ln the
agreement that was binding," said
Mr. St. Laurent. Those obligations
were fulfilled.
2. That .the Cabihet accepted the
position of the U.K. Government
that its legal obligations had been
discharged.
3. That the Prairie wheat growers believed there was a further
obligation that had not been discharged, and that the U.K. Government itself was "partly to blame"
because of a speech made in Can
ada in 1946 by then food minister
John Strachey.
4. That the Canadian Government
should make a contribution to the
wheat pool because the producers
had been led by the U.K. Govern
ment and by Canadian Cabinet
ministers to believe that more
would be done under the agreement.
Because they believed a fur
ther final settlement would be
made, the Prime Minister added,
the wheat producers went "happily along" seblhg that the wheat
contract was carried out. But
thoBe expectations were not met.
"I think that is indisputable," said
Mr. St. Laurent.
"I think we felt that . . . those
expectations should not remain in
the disappointed stage in which
they were left by the position taken
by the United Kingdom Government . . ."
He said it had been understood
from the start of the agreement
that there could be "no mathematical calculation" to cover the clause
dealing with final settlement.
He noted that the $65,000,000 contribution will constitute no greater
drain on Canada's national production than would have been involved had Britain decided to use the
$65,000,000 remaining from the 1948
Canadian loan for purchase of Canadian goods, which Britain has
said it now does not want.
Labor Walks Oul

> "Demand has sent prices soaring,"
said a representative of a British
firm with 60 years' experience. In
February, skins that sold before
the Second World War at 4 V.d.
(four cents) were marketed at 7s 3d.
($1.07) and prices are still rising.
"As long as demand remains high,
prices will keep on rising," the
spokesman said in a ninterview.
"The trouble is that output of wild
furs cannot be increased to meet
demand."
A recent Spring fashion display,
valued at £50,000 ($150,000), showed
furs ranging from £20 fox capes to
"North American": minks costing
from £900 to £2000. These, of
course, are export prices.
Styles are mostly full at back
with wide sleeves and huge cuffs.
Collars are both large and small, but
never, large enough to conceal the
shoulder line. y
'In the more expensive furs, much
use is made of the alternate three-
qiiarten and full-length sleeve,
achieved by lining .the sleeve to
the elbow with fur. The sleeve can
then be cuffed to any length from
wrist to elbow.
CAPE-COATEES POPULAR
Cape-Coatees, the double purpose
cape and jacket styles, are still
greatly in demand—specially in
silverblu mink. Equally popular are

the tiny shoulder capes with stole
fronts.
Whatever style, silverblu mink
is a top-ranking favorite. "Last
year, our sales in silverblu equalled
the total sales' of all other mink,"
said the spokesman.
Furs ranged from Russian and
Chinese Ermine through Alaskan
Seal, Peschaniki, Persian Lamb,
Chinese and Persian Broadtail,
Natural Fitch, Fox and Mink-dyed
Kolinsky, to Shorn Racoon, a fur
favored by Princess Elizabeth.
For evening wear there is a three,
quarter white ermine cape, a three,
quarter white fox cap and a hip.

Fur designs include copies of
those shown» in Paris by Pierre

Special Study For
Bridge Commission
Proposal Warranted
The Kootenay District, vitally interested in the toll, bridge commission
proposal raised by Hon. E. C. Carson,
will .welcome the fact that Nelson
Board of Trade's roads and bridges
committee is giving the matter special
study.
The committee is compiling information on the proposal and other data,
and undoubtedly will go further, to
the extent of obtaining reaction from
throughout the District on the matter.
The fact that^the bridge-building proposal deals chiefly with the Southern
Transprovincial Highway route makes
the matter of wide importance and
District interest. With Nelson a site
should bridge-building plans be forwarded, the District naturally looks to
this community to take a lead in the
development, just as Castlegar has
■ taken the lead in expressing- the feelings of its area.
The suggestion that declaration of
the Kootenay Lake West Arm from
the Canadian Pacific Shipyards site
downriver as non-navigable would
make a less expensive construction
possible has been passed along to Victoria. All these suggestions and discussions are interesting and helpful.
Bridge surveys are years old, and current stirrings may bring them to light
from Victoria pigeon holes, though
engineers making modern surveys will
have the last word on bridge sites. Increasing seaplane use of inland waters
and present highway routes are all
new matters for consideration.
At any rate, as it has been said,
here and across the province, the
bridge commission proposal is too important a. matter to let slide.
Walter Hendricks, M.L.A. for Nelson-Creston, in his weekly report from
Victoria drew attention to the need
for every interested organization to
study and present its conclusions on
the plan when he said: "unless I am
directed otherwise (by constituents) I
will have to be guided by my own
conscience and conclusions alone."
Pats Helping Teach
Korea Lesson
Canada's Princess Pats Regiment,
famed in World Wars I and II, now is
in action in Korea. After lengthy training, in Canada, at Fort Lewis, Wash.,
and in Korea, it should be well prepared to-give excellent account of itself against the Communist foes.
Meantime, it is announced, its companion units, the Royal Canadian Regiment and the Royal 22nd, soon will go
to Korea from Fort Lewis. (As in the
case of the Princess Pats, these are the
second battalions of the units bearing
the same names. The-first battalions
are members of Canada's permanent
force, still stationed in Canada.)
Also will go the 2nd Field Regi
ment, Royal Canadian Horse Artillery,
and other supporting forces. When
they get to Korea, they will join the
Princess Pats in a Commonwealth division.
Decision to send these other units
to Korea is significant, points out The
Windsor Star. It means the United
Nations has no intention of pulling
out of Korea, or of being driven out.
The idea now is our forces can hold
their own, or better, against the best
the North Koreans and Chinese can
.throw at them.
i This strategy has altered the
thought of sending these units to Western' Europe instead,of Korea. It doesn't
imply Canada will send none to Europe. The inclusion of a Canadian
Army officer on Gen. Eisenhower's
North Atlantic Treaty organization,
announced Tuesday night, assures otherwise.
The present plan appears to be to
make it so tough for the enemy in
Korea, 'arid so costly for them, that
Communist China and- Communist
Russia will not want a major conflict.
Korea is being made a lesson for them.
The United Nations forces in Korea
are becoming more diversified. There
are British, French, Turkish, Greek,
Thais (Siamese), Indian, Australian,
New Zealanders, Canadian, Philippine
and Puerto Rican troops 'there now,
and most have been in action. Some
other nations have contributed naval,
vessels.

long have been bearing the brunt almost entirely with the South Koreans,
still comprise the largest proportion.
But now they have help, and this help
will be augmented.
Many of the United Nations have
given no help to date, such as the Latin
American, the Arab and the Scandinavian countries. But enough now are
committed to serve as a warning to
Russia, and China, what side they
would be on in a major conflict.
Press Comment
Hysteria has no place in rooting out Communists, says the Ottawa Citizen. "Most Canadians who prize Individual freedom are
anxious to see that genuine Communists and
Comunist sympathizers are exposed, and that
their activities are kept under responsible
surveillance. But in seeking to expose them
by twisting the sanctions of justice, irreparable damage can be done to innocent persons.
Crusading public and private groups, In attempting to prove guilt by association, and
in compiling lists of 'front' organizations, too
frequently disregard traditional respect for
free expression of opinion. Canada cannot
afford to copy.the crude burlesques of the
United States 'lunatic fringe.'"
ALL PLEASED
The announcement that Hon. D. L. Mac-
Laren will continue to be Lieutenant-Governor of New Brunswick will be welcome news
to everyone. Without doubt he has been one
of the outstanding Lieutenant-Governors in
the memory of the citizens. He has been devoting practically all his time and his strength
to the performance of his duties as the King's
representative, and has .shown a keen sense
of the high responsibility he bears.

ATTLEE WAS THERE—AND KNOWS
There's a little-known story behind Prima
Minister Attlee's comment on U.S. apologies
for the accidental bombing of British troops
in Korea. "I have been myself on active service, and I know that mistakes occur,""he
said. In 1916 during a battle in Mesopotamia,
Captain Attlee's company ran into a heavy
artillery barrage. A British shell wounded
Attlee and put him out of action for six
months.—Newsweek Magazine.

gross revenue Increases.

all-time high .last year—$35,800,000

a post-war decline. More than
133,000,000 passengers were carried

flat on one's face
"Know-how" is a popular phrase in these times — the western nations'
industrial know-how is said to be their greatest hope. But it is not enough
to know how to do a job. Doing it is what counts.. Between knowing
and doing there are usually a surprising number of opportunities for
falling flat on one's face.
The textile industry in Canada, of which Dominion Textile Is a part,
has been practising for over a century to avoid falling flat on its face. While
learning its job and doing it, the industry has become the largest employer of manufacturing labor in Canada and the payer of the largest
manufacturing wage bill. .

vincing fashion. Never behind in the
game, Trail led 3-2 at the end of
the first period and were in front
4-2 after two periods. The teams
split single goals in the last period.
Johnny Rypien, a Smokie spark,
plug sthroughout the 6eries, paced
the winners tonight with two goals
and  two  assists.   Gordie  Sinclair,
Danny McDougald and Terry Cavanaugh provided the other Smokie
tallies.
Kimberley marksmen were Eddie
Barre, Claude Bell and Bill Hryciuk.
KIMBEREY 0UTSKA7ED
Trail outskated the East Kootenay
club most of the way and held an
edge in play in every period. Trail
forwards back-checked throughout
the game and at the same time gave
Kimberley netminder Dave Mclay
plenty of action.
McLay was a standout for the
losers and only his smart goaltend'
ing kept the Smokies from running
up a bigger score. Dynamiters
played without two of their top
men, Sully Sullivan and Spence
Tatchell, while Trail was without
Captain Frank Turik.
Defenceman Danny McDougald
gave the Smokies their first goal
at 2:56 of the first  period. The
huge  Trail   rearguard   drilled   a
blueline   shot   Into   the   bottom
corner of the Kimberley net.
Three  minutes later the Dyna
miters tied the score at 1-1 when
Sofiak in the Trail nets allowed
Hryciuk's easy shot to drop behind
him into the goal. Jones drew an
assist on the marker which came
at 5:08.
Rypien connected on a screened
shot while Barker of Kimberley
was off, serving a five-minute penalty. Referee Bill Nielson thumbed
Barker when he rapped McDougald
with his stick.
Cavanagh boosted Trail's lead to
3-1 at 17:01, but just before the
period ended Bell got one back for
Kimberley. Bell's unassisted tally
came at 19:39.
The Smoke Eaters increased their
margin to 4-2 in the second period
as they held a big edge over the
visitors. After Gordie Sinclair concerted Secco's pass at 11:24 the
Trail offensive, rolled into high
gear.
Trail   hemmed   In   the   Dynamiters In the  latter half of the
stanza and had several close scoring chances, Secco bounced a shot
off the  post, Kromm  missed on
a breakaway, and Nicol fired two
sh'ots at point-blank range only
to have them blocked by McLay.
In the third period Bobby Kirk's
Smokies continued to dominate the
play. Rypien zoomed in from left-
wing to fire a sizzler home at 3:19
for his second counter, of the night.
Four   minutes   later   the   Dynamiters  narrowed   the   gap   to   5-3
when Barre batted in Bell's pass.
A five-minute penalty to Yost of
Trail at the three-quarter mark in
the period gave Kimberley their
final chance to,stay in'the series.
Although putting on the pressure
they were unable to break through
a tough Trail defence. Kimberley
pulled McLay in the last minute in
a futile bid to pull another upset.
Yost received his five-minute
penalty when he boarded Bill
Hryciuk. The speedy Dynamiter
forward was carried off the ice on
a stretcher. It was reported later
that he suffered a charley-horse.
Referees Bill Nielson and Jerry
Trudell of the M.O.A.H.L.   called
seven penalties with six going to
Trail.

Canadiens Take Over Third Spot-
Toronto, Detroit Win in NHL Games
By the Canadian Press
Montreal Canadiens last night
moved into sole possession of third
place in the national hockey league
standing. Two goals by Rookie
Bernie (Boom-Boom) Geoffrion
that gave the Canadiens e 5-4 victory over New York Rangers did
the trick.
In the night's other two games,
Toronto Maple Leafs downed the
hapless Chicago Black Hawks 5-3 in
Chicago in a game that had little
effect on the standings. Toronto is
firmly settled in second place, the
Hawks in the league cellar. At Detroit, Goalkeeper Terry Sawchuk
notched his secon dstraight shutout
and 10th of the season a Detroit
Red Wings blanked Boston Bruins
4-0.
The N.H.L. point pace-setter, Gordie Howe now is only three points
short of the league's all-time point
record set by Boston's Herbie Cain
in 1943-44.

Among 17 U. N. Soldiers Captured,. Later Released by Reds
Prepared to Keep
Date With Death
A group of U.N. troops who were held prisoners by the Chinese Communists for 17 days
were released and sent back to their own lines
by the Reds, none the worse for their experience.
Tired and haggard-looking after their confinement,
five are shown huddled around a makeshift stove
at the medical station In Korea, where some were
treated for wounds. From left are: Pfc. Robt. Duncan of Dayton, Ohio; Pfc. Jos. A. Collins of
Selmer, N.C; Cpl. Lawrence Buckland of Sydney,
Australia; Lieut. Angus MacDonald of Brisbane,
Australia, and First-Lieut, George E. Dowrie of
Brunswick, Ga.—Central Press Canadian.
Preparing to keep an appointment with death, Dr. Napoleano
Leaureano, 36-year-old Brazilian
physician, is seen ag he received
a kiss from his wife, Marclna,
shortly before he flew back to
his home town of Joao Pressoa.
Following diagnosis of his own
aliment, Leaureano described that
he has lymph cancer and only a
month left to live. His return to
h,a native town was prompted by
belief that "a man ought to die
at home."

'Gifted Gob'
Canine. Killer Is on Loose in Niagara Falls
H.M.C.S. Cayuga, now In action In Korea, boasts one of the
most up-to-date collections of model airplanes in the Royal Canadian Navy, thanks to the carving talents of Able Seaman Fred
Hughes of Winnipeg. As a result of his handiwork, the Cayuga has
15 models of the latest Russian-type aircraft and their corresponding
Allied planes, all made aboard ship from scrap wood gathered from
boxes In which the destroyer's supplies are received. Besides building airplanes, Hughes has been working on a scale model of the
Cayuga, which he hopes to have completed by the time the ship
returns to Canada this Spring. In the above photo, Hughes, right,
Is seen holding a model of a Russian MIG-15, comparing It with
an American F-86 held by Ldg. Sea, Glen Clemmett of Vancouver.

Market Trends
, NEW YORK, March 15 (AP) -
The market turned and twisted like
a weather vane In a contrary March
wind.
The net result was a thorough
mixture of gams and losses spreading out widely by nearly $2 in
either direction.
The volume of trading continued
large at an estimated 2,000,000
shares. The total yesterday was 2,-
110,000 shares.
Canadian issues fell with Dome
Mines losing 14, Distillers Seagrams
'and International Nickei each %,
while Canadian Pacific and Hiram
Walker were each unchanged.
On the curb, Lake Shore fell Vi
and Giant Yellowknife 14 while
Royalite Oil was unchanged.
TORONTO (CP) — Prices declined in quiet trading.
Trading was at an inactive pace
and volume was about 1,000,000
shares.
Industrial losses ranged from
fractions to $2 but many issues were
untraded and unchanged. Issues
down $1 or more included Con
sumers Gas, Cockshutt, Steel of
Canada, Page-Hershey, Traders Finance A, Bank of Nova Scotia,
Aluminum and Ford A.
Base metals eased over a broad
front with small declines. Key issues
lower Included International Nickel
Normetal, Pend Ore, Quemont,
Steep Rock. United Keno Hill and
Waite Amulet..
Western Oils drifted quietly
downward.
MONTREAL (CP) —Securities
continued their downward trend in
the late stages. Trading was quiet.
In the industrial section losses
held a fair margin over gains, while
papers and, utilities were slightly
easier. Beverages, banks, carriers
and senior oils all were generally
lower.. Senior metals were unchanged to a trifle easier.
Featured losers were Canadian
Celanese, down 114 to 58, and Canada Cement down 1% to 61%.
Mines were hesitant under a
moderate demand while Eastern
oils were mainly steady. Changes
were mostly pennies and there were
no features.
LONDON, (Reuters) — Condi-
tions genereally' were quiet and inclined to be dull, with prices at the
close somewhat irregular.
A feature of early dealings was
an easier oils section. This reflected
Persian government approval of oil
nationalization. Anglo-Iranians were
particularly affected and finished
11/32 down: at 5 1/16 after having
been 13/32 down at one time.
  .

Visiting Briton
Finds a Nation
By FORBES RHUDE
Canadian Press Business Editor
Ian Stephens, editor of thi
Statesman of Calcutta and New Delhi, has published in an attractively-
illustrated booklet his impressions
of Canada.
Mr. Stephens, a Briton who has
spent 20 years in India, gathered .
his impressions on a ysit to Canada last Summer as a member of the
Indian delegation to the Commonwealth Press Conference.
The greater part olihis visit was
some 1,400 miles of travel through
Ontario and Quebec, and he calls
his booklet "A Novice in Canada".
Despile the limitations on his travels, he studied our situation carefully, and his views make stimulating reading for Canadians whether
or not they agree with him completely.
They made stimulating reading in
India and Pakistan, too, when originally published there as newspaper
articles, judging by the large number of letters to the editor which
they brought forth.
Mr. Stephens came to Canada
"very open to the supposition that
her natural destiny might be eventual fusion with the United States."
His pre-arrival study had shown
him a "freak nation ... no broader
than from.London to Paris, but as
long as from ^ondon to Karachi."
He asked; "Can a country so out-
landishly shaped be truly a nation?
Will it last?"
By the time he left he had decided:
"Canada ... is truly a nation,
cohesive and durable — and unlikely, within any foreseeable" future, to become merged with the
United States. ... As an independent member of an evolving Atlantic community, she has a distinctive
and necessary function to fulfill,. .
On a new continent, a wonderful
new type of national entity has beea
born."
Rain-Makers,
Heads in Clouds
By ED CREAGH
WASHINGTON, March 15 (AP)—
Rain-making pioneers, their heads
In the clouds, put out a qualified
forecast yesterday that mankind
will have "a considerable control"
of the weather in years to come.
The United States Weather Bureau's response: "You'll have to show
us."
Dr. Bernard Vonnegut of the General Electric Company said the
chances are "far greater than 99 out
of 100 that cloud-seeding can be of
enormous value to our country."
Vonnegut developed G. E.'s system of making rain by introducing
a chemical mist of silver iodide into
thunderclouds, '
He told senators the "wise use" of
this cloud-seeding may well cut
storm and flood damage and make
flying safer, besides providing rain
for drought-stricken areas.
„ For the Weather Bureau, assistant director W. F. McDonald said:
"The Bureau feels that it is still
too early to try to define what can
or cannot be done in this field and
that a great deal more work is necessary before sound conclusions
can be formed."
"Look," said Senator Clinton Anderson (Dem. N.M.), "If clouds are
sprayed with these chemicals and
then it rains, and they're sprayed
again and it rains, and every time
they're sprayed it rains, doesn't it'
begin to' look as if there's something
to this spray business?"
"That," McDonald declared, "Is
like saying that if a lot of women
hang out their washings on Monday,
and it rains on Wednesday, the rain
Was caused by hanging out the
washings."

American Medals
.OTTAWA, March 15 (CP)-Can-
adian soldiers in Korea are free to
wear all United States decorations
which are or have been officially
awarded to them, an army official
said last night.
"Of course the U. S. decorations
would go up after any Canadian or
British medals. Lots of Canadians
won and wore U. S. decorations during the second World War."
He was commenting on an editorial in the London Daily Express in
which the pappr said it disagrees
with the British Government for
not grantnig permission for British
soldiers in Korea to wear American decorations.

one of the cyclists.
BRIGSTOCK, England (CP) -
Seventy-three years with the same
firm*is the record of Mrs. Harriet
Bland. She still works for the same
laundry company in the Northamptonshire town where she started as
a girl of 12.
BORN in Vancouver, in the taxi speeding their mother to hospital,
these twins were found to be "Rh babies." The doctor in charge
sent out an emergency call to the Red Cross Blood Transfusion
Service in that city. Soon, both babies had responded to the new
blood treatment; their complexions assumed a healthy pink and
their lusty wails for food made thrilling music to anxious ears. Had
YOU not helped, these babies might not have lived.
Your Red Cross donation helps to maintain
E BLOOD TRANSFUSION SERVICE
It is a rapidly expanding service that saves
countless fives in emergency every year. It may
some day save your own life, or the life of
someone you love.
But the Red Cross must have money
lo maintain this and other Services
Money is needed for Disaster Services, Veterans' Work,
Outpost Hospitals, and the many other ways the Red Cross
helps to save lives and alleviate suffering. Give willingly,
won't you? Give generously, grateful to have a share in
this great humanitarian work.
The ivork of Mercy never ends
to the RED CROSS
Please hove your contribution ready when the canvasser calls. Do
not ask him to return, as he, too, is busy and giving freely of his
time to assist in making this campaign a real success.
