Tory Rearmament
Motion Downed by
21-Vote Majority
LONDON, Feb. 15 (AP)—Prime
Minister Attlee's Labor Government tonight beat down by 21 votes
a Conservative Party attempt to
oust it from office on charges of
bungling Britain's rearmament.
A motion of censure introduced
by Conservative Leader Winston
Churchill was defeated in the
House of Commons by a vote of
,308 to 287. In acid debate he had
assailed Labor's rearmament efforts
as "inept and Incompetent."
The victory margin yvas surprisingly large In view' 6f criticism some left-wing Labor members have directed against their
own party's arms program. Even
Labors' pacifists remained In step
to give the Government Its second largest majority since last
February's general election on
any major Issue in the closely-
balanced House.
Members on both sides of the
House were surprised, by the margin of the vote. There was a great
shout of "oh" mingled with Labor
cheers. It was the biggest donfi-
dence vote Labor has received in
the year-old Parliament. The Liberals backed Labor on the issue.
CHURCHILL  CHALLENGED
Jutting out his chin, Churchill
said Attlee's regime had failed
5% years to produce atomic bombs
in Britain. In that period, he said,
the country actually was "outstripped by the Soviets" In the
field of atomic energy.
Attlee challenged Churchill's A-
bomb statements. The prime minister said Churchill "is not producing any.evidence that,.given the
resources.over here, we could have
done more than we have done."
.. The Chancelldr, of the. Exchequer,
Hugh Gaitskell, said Churchill's
speech was "completely lacking in
serious argument of any kind."
The Labor Government plans to
spend £4,700,000,000 (about $13,000,
000,000) during the next three years
on rearmament.
v To meet this program, Gaitskell
said, British civilians will have to
get along with "less clothing, fabrics, radios, domestic . equipment,
pottery and glass."

BY ROGER D. GREENE
WASHINGTON, Feb. 15 (AP)
Defence Secretary Marshall told
Congress today the United States
plans to send 100,000 more troops to
Europe to serve under the supreme
allied command of Gen. Eisenhower.
He said the new contingents will
include 72,000 men in four combat
divisions — plus supporting units —
and will raise American ground
forces in Europe to about 197,000.
The U.S. has the equivalent of two
divisions there now, with supporting units.
. Coupled with American air and
sea forces, the troop reinforcements
will lift Ihe total to some 250,000
U.S. fighting men in the Europe-
Mediterranean area.
Testifying before the Senate Armed Services and Foreign Relations
Committee, Marshall indicated it
may be necessary to keep American
soldiers,in Europe for the next 10
yeats.1!,   '
."Our aim is primarily to deter
aggression if that be possible and
m defeat aggression.if, in spite of
all our efforts, the actions of!,the
Soviet Union or its satellites should
'precipitate another world war."
He said emphatically he does not
consider it a hopeless task to defend Western Europe against Russia
and her puppet states "If war is
thrust upon us." But he warned that
the fall of Europe to Russia would
heighten the possibility of Soviet
air attacks upon the United States.
Marshall said that for security
reasons he spoke "reluctantly" In
disclosing the plan to send four
more divisions to Europe.
"I have reached the conclusion
that there is a greater peril to our
security through weakening thu
morale of our allies by a debate based on uncertainties, than there can
possibly be through the public disclosure of our planned strength
figures."

Approve Social Credit Motion;
Compulsory Training Proposal
"Not Acceptable to Gov't"—Claxton
OTTAWA, Feb. 15 (CP)—Two Progressive Conservativa
Members today in the Commons di*sagreed with their party's
views on the contentious issue of compulsory military training in Canada's reserve forces.
First Douglas Harkness (PC—Calgary East), wartime
artillery Lieutenant-Colonel, and then Howard Green .(PC-
Vancouver Quadra), a veteran of the First World War, announced support of a motion calling for compulsory training
in the reserve forces for home defence.
They disagreed with the military spokesman of their
43-men party—Maj.-Gen. G. R. Pearkes, V.C. (PC—Nanaimo)—who said Wednesday he could not approve the motion,
sponsored by the 10-man So
cial Credit Party.
As the debate appeared to be
drawing to a close, Defence Min
ister Claxton spoke briefly. He
said that because of the reasons
given by Gen. Pearkes and some
of the others the policy proposed
in the; motion "is not acceptable
to the Government." He did not
elaborate,
Mr. Green said it was better to
argue the question dispassionately
now than with heat and bitterness
later after war had started.
Despite the impending danger of
war there was no adequate pre
paredness in Canada and would not
be until the Government announced
a clear cut plan for use of man
power. The voluntary system of en
listment was discredited across the
country because of its unfairness in
the last war.
-The forces were having trouble
getting men and he doubted that
defence   production    would    get
enough. It was obvious that some
form of selective service for both
would   be   necessary   If   Canada
was to arm quickly.
The reserve army, on- the basis
of its program outlined in 1945 by
then defence minister Abbott, was
100,000 men  short of  the   150,000
men Mr. Abbott, had said it would.
contain. It had 50,000 men or less
,}bday....    :'       ... '    ; -i
'Those ranks must be filled. The
Government should  "choose them
by lot from the group best fitted
to serve" with others volunteering
if they wished.
The Government should bring in
a selective service that could direct
the required men into ^defence in
dustry and into the reserves. There
should be national registration now.
Tom Goode (L— Burnaby-Rich-
mond) said he Would go akmg with
the views of Gen. Pearkes, his commanding officer in the last. wa,r.
Gen. Pearkes had spoken from experience whereas Mr. Green had
based his speech on a "couple of
newspaper clippings,"
CASTE SYSTEM
One of the "most disgraceful epl
sodes" in the last war was what
happened to men called up for
home defence. A caste system was
established. Those called for home
defence walked down one side of
the street while those who volunteered for service anywhere walked
on the other side.
O. L. Jones (C.C.F.—Yale), a
veteran of the First World War,
said Canada has not the facilities
to handle 'compulsory military
training at this time. He said It
Is costing Canada $200,000 .
month to keep the Army's 10,000
man Special Force at Fort Lewis,
Wash. This was an unnecessary
expense. ,
He proposed that the force be
brought   back   to   Canada   and
trained  at Vernon,   B.C.,  where
there were adequate facilities.
Victor Quelch (S.O.—Acadia) said
he had not yet heard a convincing
argument against his party's  proposal for compulsory military training. He was surprised at the weakness of the arguments of those who
were trying to oppose it.
Mr. Quelch said the war danger
is "very great" and, if war came,
Canada couldn't escape the consequences. The reserve army should
be "thoroughly reorganized" and
strengthened because it "would have
ah;'important,-role' in defending a
country that could become another
Belgium.
The conference of defence associations had pointed up the sad
state of the reserve army by saying
even the 40,000 men it has are not
nearly prepared for action. Canada
had the arms to train the men
needed. The reserve units needed
the men.
Some form of compulsory service
"is absolutely essentia)."
J. A. Ross (P.C—Couris), a lieu-
tenant-colonel in the First World
War, said he supported wholeheartedly the views of Gen. Pearkes.
George Cruickshank (L.—Fraser
Valley), decorated First World War
infantry captain, said he still stands
by his belief'that there should be
compulsory training in the reserve
army but he couldn't support the
Social Credit motion. It would bring
back to. Canada a "zombie army"
for home defence only.
Mr. Cruickshank said he was satisfied . with assurances from Prime
Minister St. Laurent that full conscription will be introduced if and
when the time is right. That tirne
is not now.

The Victoria Colonist in a frontpage story today says possibility of

toward outflanked Chipyong routed one Chinese unit after another
in a series oi stiff skirmishes,'latest front-line reports from the central sector said today.

The relief column, smashing
from the South, routed Communist forces that had besieged Chip

Despite heavy losses, the Chinese

Scouts Self-Help
Contrasted fo TV
Catering by Dean
The Boy Scout movement develops the enterprising spirit of
Canadian boys, Dean T. L. Leadbeater told Kiwanis Club Thursday
night at the Hume.
Dean Leadbeater was appealing
for financial assistance for the Boy
Scout movement in connection with
Boy Scout Week, and for a volunteer from the Club to aid in a
canvass. The appeal was turned
over to a committee.
"We don't want to amuse them,
we want to teach them to make
their own amusements," the speaker said. The training received by
the Scout covered a wide course
and stimulated his observation. As
a contrast, the Dean referred to
the trend to television in the United States, where youth leaders
viewed with alarm the tendency on
the part of children to sit back and
do nothing but watch the television
screens.
The whole plan in Scouting was
to Uevelop the character of the
boys. They worked hard to raise
money themselves, and were assisted by the executive, which had
many financial ..problems in connection with the movement. The
Scout Hall, for Instance, was in
poor condition; a provincial assessment had to be paid and money
had to be found to send the boys
to camporees and jamborees, affairs which stimulated the movement.
The executive also assisted in
training of leaders who volunteered
their services, receiving, of course,
no pay. The leaders, particularly
District Commissioner Don Ure,
Were giving a tremendous amount
of time to the movement, and he
felt they should not always have
to "bear the brunt" of the financial
problem. The movement was of a
community-wide nature.
COMMITTEE SET
W. G. Hamilton, Chairman,' Samuel Korbin and G. W, Jensen were
appointed a committee, to bring in
recommendations on the Club's annual Spring dance.
K. W. Jensen was asked to continue as Kiwanis representative on
the Midsummer Bonspiel Committee, and support similar to that of
last year, when all service clubs
rallied behind the Bonspiel, was
promised.
Guests were Bruce Buchanan of
Medicine Hat Kiwanis Club and
Dr. W. C. Murphy and Norman Fet-
terly of Nelson.

CRANBHOOK, B. C, Feb. 15 -
International Joint Commission
hearings with regard to effects of
a proposed dam on the Kootenay
River at Libby, Mont, on East
Kootenay are scheduled for various
East Kootenay Centers in mid-
March, with Cranbrook's hearing
to be in the city hall here March
16, Hearings are at request of. the
United States Government which
has conditionally authorized the
project subject to state, province
and Dominion approval.
Though the project has been under practical consideration for
three years no East Kootenay organization has yet taken a public
stand. Hearings will give every
opportunity to those affected to
place their views before the public.
Cost of the project in 1948 was
estimated at $258,659,000 to provide
800,000 horsepower, 4,250,000 acre-
feet of usable water storage, and
develop 244,000 kilowatts with 821,-
000 kilowatts of system prime
power because plants down river
would benefit. The Canadian portion of the reservoir would cost an
estimated $5,500,000 for necessary
installations above the dam and to
compensate operating interests in
the area which would be flooded
in this district, cost to be borne by
the American Government;
Realization of the Libby dam
would revolutionize the very geography of Southern East Kootenay.
It would create a lake 89 miles,
long, approximately the size of
Kootenay Lake in the mountain
valley Westward. This lake would
straddle the International Boundary at the present village of Newgate, with its Northern end 45 miles
North in the vicinity of Wardner
on the Southern Trans-Provincial
highway' about 20 miles East of
Cranbrook.
WOULD AFFECT RAILROAD
Most obvious detrimental effects
are flooding of the sparsely settled
valley South of Wardner. It provides excellent farming conditions
along the river banks, and timber
for small portable sawmill operations scattered along the valley.
The Kootenay runs briskly in substantially increasing volume
through this part of East Kootenay
but cannot be considered steep.
Since flat-bottom wood-burning
boats from Fort Steele navigated it
fairly regularly South to Jennings
near Libby up to about 1910, .it must
be considered navigable. Its course
is   fairly   direct,  tending   slightly
Community Club

Seek Wage Increase
VANCOUVER, Feb. 15 (CP) —
Some 650 beer parlor tapmen and
waiters here are asking a 40-eent
hourly wage increase.
The -Beverage Dispensers' Union
(A.F.L.) Local 676 voted yesterday
to press for the increase as the main
proposal in 1951 contracts with
-Vancouver hotels.
i
Southeastward, and it runs through
a valley' flanked by the Rockies
and a spur of the Purcells. Level of
the proposed dam would be 2440
feet above sea level, over 500 feet
lower than Cranbrook.
HIGHWAY CHANGE
Relocation of a few miles of
Southern Transprovincial Highway
and the Crow's Nest branch of the
Canadian Pacific Railway in Wardner area would probably be necessary. Much of the secondary road
from Elko to Newgate and the
Gateway border station would be
completely inundated.
TOURIST ATTRACTIONS
i. It would provide East Kootenay
with a resort and tourist attractions
secondary only to Kootenay,.National Park, adding a big lake to
the Southern section which is already famous for its rugged scenery, fishing and hunting and it is
within comfortable range of Kimberley, Cranbrook, and Fernie, says
the project's supporters,
Power   potential   of   the   dam
facilities at Libby would go into
the  huge  Northwest power pool
which alio Includes the  Columbia facilities In Washington and
Oregon. There has been  no discussion al to whether East Kootenay would secure direct power
benefits. At present power is supplied   by   East   Kootenay   Power
and Light a few miles North of
Wardner on the  Bull   River be
fore It Joins the  Kootenay, and
Installations   at   Elko   15   miles
East   of   Wardner   on   the   Elk
River before  it JoinB the  Kootenay.  Additional  East  Kootenay
power for Cominco operations at
Kimberley    will    be    available
shortly in line installations plan
ned from West "Kootenay across
Kootenay   Lake   and   the   main
Purcell range to Kimberley. This
Is in the 1951 expansion program.
The huge reservoir is also considered as fountainhead of irrigation, though in the Canadian part
excejpt for the Kootenay River bottom now successfully farmed which
also provides excellent grazing for
the   increasingly   significant   livestock beef industry, the terrain is
steep,   rocky   and   not   apparently
productive. Irrigation might change
this picture, however.
THIRD  BENEFIT
Third major benefit listed by
advocates of the project is measures
for flood control. Most costly damage on the Kootenay River in recent flood years, notably the 1948
disaster, was in Montana, then in
Bonner's Ferry, Idaho district
where diked lands were inundated,
and further down river 'at Creston,
B. C„ where swamped dikes collapsed running damage into millions. The Kootenay continues from
Creston into Kootenay Lake and
Nelson, to join the Columbia at
Castlegar.
The Kootenay River occupies 19,
300 square miles, three-fourths in
Canada and. the remainder in
Montana and Idaho. Approval of
the American Government has already been given, but must also
be given by the two states.' Most
in the Montana hearings was that
serious objection turned up in 1948
seven little towns would be inundated and a state highway obliterated. Zonolite Company, which has
a yermiculite mine in the area, and
K. .Neils Lumber Company, operating a sustained yield program in
the Fisher River watershed which
would be under water filed protests.
British Columbia would be re
quired to affirm the plan, and Ca
nadian Government approval
would be necessary before any
practical implementation could be
undertaken. The Kootenay hearings
at -Nelson, Creston, Cranbrook and
Fernie should determine the public
attitude toward the project.

Fire Protection
Certain For
Invermere Homes
INVERMERE, B.C., Feb. 15 —
Adequate fire-protection is in sight
for Invermere. Purchase of $1000
worth of fire fighting equipment
from the Cranbrook Fire Department has been negotiated. This consists of a 1932 International truck
with a 12 foot roof ladder and a
25 foot extension ladder. It is also
equipped with a centrifugal, front
mounted pump, 2 soda ash chemical
extinguishers, 2 re-inforced suction
hoses and a 5 h.p. flasher siren.
Roy Lake, Ian Weir and William
Bond made a trip to Cranbrook to
inspect the .equipme »t and on consultation with the local Fire Marshal
feel that such equipment is the
answer to the serious problem that
has been facing the town which has
no protection whatever except that
provided by local garages with extinguishers and by courtesy emergency help from the Forest Service.
Four fires within the past year
have resulted in complete loss of
buildings and contents. Two were
business premises, one the liquor

SELL THE CLASSIFIED WAY
All Time Safety
Year For Cominco
TRAIL, B.C., Feb. 15 — Last year
was the safest record for the 9000
employees of the Consolidated Mining and Smelting Company, according to figures released today. The
biggest gain in safety was made by
the 5000 employees at the Trail
plants. There the accident rate dropped 33 per cent with a new low of
one accident for every 67,000 hours
worked being set. This amounts to
about one accident for every 30
years of work per employee.
The Alberta Nitrogen' Department
at Calgary had the lowest accident
rate for company operations. The
300 employees there had only one
accident for every 110,000 hours
worked.
At the Sullivan Mine in Kimberley, the 500-man surface crew worked for 227 days without an accident,
erasing the old mark of 150 days
which was set in 1933.
Commenting on the record year
for safety in 1950, a company official said that the accident rate
has been decreasing steadily since
the end of the war. "The keen cooperation of employees as well as
the intensive safety program put
on by the, company have been important (factors," he said.
PORT ALBERNI SCHOOL
COST UP 14 PER CENT
PORT ALBERNI, B.C., Feb. 15
(CP) — An estimated 14 per cent increase in school costs for 1951 in
Port Alberni and district is repbrted
by District No, 70 Board of School
Trustees.
The Board has budgeted for an
expenditure of $1,333,313. Estimated
revenue this year is $1,011,563, of
which government grants will
amount to $427,794, by-laws $425,657
and a surplus of $16,044 from last
year, leaving $304,725 to be raised by
taxation.
Last year the Board budgeted for
$451,513, with an actual expenditure
of $412,906.
Main reasons for the sharp jump
in costs are operation charges of
new school buildings, increased debt
charges and inclusion of 1951 bylaw expenditures.
Pennsylvania, great coal-producing state, has a-, total'mineral production of more than $1,000,000,000
annually.
NELSON DAILY NEWS, FRIDAY, FEB. 16, 1951 — 3
$450,000 Trail-Tadanac Share
In Proposed New Hospital Project
TRAIL, B.C., Feb. 15—Trail City
Council last night was asked for
assurance that the City of Trail
would pay its share of the costs of
constructing and furnishing a new
hospital here. Council referred the
request, from the Trail-Tadanac
Hospital Board, to Aid. L. A. Read,
Council's representative on the
Board, for further clarification".
The letter from the Hospital
Board said that the building was
expected to cost approximately $1,-
500,000. Government grants and
hospital funds would pay for a part
of the project, but the municipalities of Trail and Tadanac would
be required to raise a total of some
$450,000.
The Board pointed out that there
would be some return on the two
cities' share. When the new building was completed, the present hospital building would be sold, possibly for about $200,000, and that
sum  would  be  returned  to  Trail
and Tadanac in proportion to the
amounts raised for the new building by -the two cities.
The communities' share of the
cost is worked out on the basis of
communities paying one-third of .
the total cost and the Provincial
Government being responsible for
the remaining two-thirds, part of
the latter being paid by the Federal Government through a grant of
$1000 per bed, which in this case
would amount to $150,000.
The communities' share then
would be one-third, or $500,000 for
construction costs, but the Hospital
Board can provide $117,000 of that
sum through Its construction fund,
which leaves $383,00Q. Added to
that is cost of furnishings, expected
to total $100,000, of which the cities'
share is two-thirds, or $67,000,
bringing the overall cost to the
cities up to $450,000.
There was no indication as to
what part of the $450,000 Trail
would have to raise.

Pay $14,000 Fine
VANCOUVER, Feb. 15 (CP) -
Magistrate Oscar Orr today fined a
cabaret and two of its officers
$14,000 for income tax evasion.
The fine was suggested by Special
Crown Prosecutor Paul D. Murphy
in the case of Nick Kogos, president,

Mr. Murphy told the court that a
check for $111,000 to cover seven

Wednesday.
"About half the 2,000,006 population of Latvia, Baltic state, is engaged in food production.

Leading Comedians bid for
Hollywood's TV Industry
By BOB THOMAS
HOLLYWOOD, Feb. 15 (AP) —
The "revolt of the comics" today
appeared to be hastening Hollywood's bid for contention in the
television industry.   ,
This is no organized rebellion. It
is a growing distaste on the part
of several top comedians for the
rigors of doing television shows in
New York. All of the men I polled
have homes here and most of them
are engaged in movie work. They
dislike being uprooted for the
strenuous life of Eastern TV.
Furthermore, several of the
comics are against "live" video, preferring to offer their efforts on
film. Bob Hope is one of these.
"Why not take advantage of cutting?" he inquired. "Doing a show
on film would cut out the sloppi-
ness.
."The same thing happened in
radio. People realized you can get
a much better show on tape than
you can broadcasting 'live.' "
Abbott and Costello, who recently
made their TV debuts, also favor
films. They have one more Eastern

Widow Tells Court of
Husband's Taunting
VANCOUVER, Feb. 15 (CP) — A
3B-year-old widow told the British
Columbia Supreme Court yesterday
her husband used to shout at her
when she asked for housekeeping
money and doled out a few dollars
at a time.
When Charles Harold Peterson
died 27 months ago, he was worth
$750,000, counsel for Mrs. Ethel Peterson said.
Mrs. Peterson is asking an Increase In the $180-a-month left her
by her husband. Mr. Peterson was
58 and she was 18 when they were
married in 1930. .     '
In a quiet voice, Mrs. Peterson related how she met Peterson here in
thinking he would be a suitable
friend 'for. her mother. The next
year, he asked the daughter to marry him and she had accepted, she
said, to help her mother, who had
had to work for their living.
"He was kind until our son was
born in 1933; after that he belittled

India Owns Huge
Thorium Supply
By ED CREAGH
WASHINGTON, Feb' 15 (AP) —
Here's one hush-hush reason for the
policy American leaders describe
as patience and kindness toward
India:
India has three-quarters of the
world's supply of thorium, a mineral
that may become tremendously important in the atomic race with the
Soviet Union, and the United States
government doesn't want to risk
letting this supply fall into unfriendly hands.
The whole subject is shrouded in
secrecy, but one government official
who asked not to be quoted by
name, acnowledged today that India's possession of all this potential
atomic material has had its effect
on American policy.
It may well have influenced President Truman's request — endorsed
in principle by former President
Herbert Hoover and various other
leading Republicans — for a gift
of 2,000,000 tons of wheat to the government of India to help avert the
danger of famine.

III Mother Struggles
Through 30 Below
Weather to Safety
WILLIAMS' LAKE, B.C., Feb. 15
(CP) — A desperately-ill mother of
five children told here today of a
struggle through deep snow in 30
below zero weather to reach the
safety of a neighbor's home.
Mrs. Brownie Perry suffered an
appendicitis attack while her husband was out on the range.•
She couldn't leave'her children,
the youngest 10 months old, so she
lashed them on a hand sleigh and
started a trek across the range.'
She trudged for miles only to find
the first ranch house she reached
unoccupied, but the door was un
locked.
Mrs. Perry entered and telephoned the nearest neighbor, Mrs. Ann
Johnston at Riske Creek, who went
to her aid.
The two women then hauled the
sleigh with the children to Riske
Creek, from where medical aid was
called.
One of the children may lose the
tips of three fingers as a result of
frostbite. The others suffered no
injury.

Sturdy, Religious Moslems Would
Fight Against Atheistic Russia
By  DEWITT  MaoKENZIE
Associated Preii News Analyst
The Moscow Press, marking the
first anniversary of the Russo-Chi-
nese alliance, makes much of the
claim that the joint actions of the
two countries will have a powerful
influence on the future of humanity.
Certainly, as thihgB now stand,
the vast Asiatic theatre, which contains more than half the world's
population,' presents a grave problem for the democracies. It could
be the decisive battlefield of the
ideological struggle.
GENERATIONS BEHIND
Many of these peoples .still are
living in primitive conditions, literally generations behind the Western
world. Poverty and hunger are the
general rule.
So the combination of the Soviet
Union and huge Red China comprises a formidable alliance, especially since much of- their territories actually lie within Eastern
Asia. China, to be sure, suffers
from the common ailment of poverty and hunger. But she has a vast
reservoir of manpower which
backed by Russian resources
military and otherwise.
It ft, of course, too early to arrive
at any final conclusion regarding
the Asiatic situation. A long, hard
conflict may lie ahead..
GREATLY ALTERED
Much will depend on the trend of
the struggle in Western Europe.
Should war develop there, and
should Russia overrun the continent
the picture in Asia would be greatly
altered.
In short, Russia would be pretty
well queen of the globe — a cir-
cumtance which this columh doesn't
expect to develop.
The Asiatic struggle may take on
a different complexion as Communism increasingly comes up against
the Moslem countries.
We, may expect sturdy religious
resistance on the part of the Moslem
peoples against atheistic Communism. The Moslem takes his belief
in God seriously, and will fight
for it.
So we get back to the premise
that the outcome of the Russo-Chi-
nese operations in Asia is bound
to have a great influence on the
future of humanity; And there is, as
I see it, no-reason why the democracies shouldn't look forward confidently to the outcome.

Witness to Keep
Prices Uniform
CALGARY, Feb. 15 (CP)—Evidence that efforts had been made to
maintain uniform bread prices at
Regina, Calgary and Edmonton was
given today by Frank E. Alloway,
Edmonton, a former manager and
regional sales supervisor for Mc-
Gavin Ltd., when he testified before Mr. Justice Boyd McBride at
the alleged bread combine case
which is now in its sixth week.
■Alloway said he started the Mc-
Gavin plant at Regina in December,
1939, and managed it until 1938
when he came to Calgary to open
the McGavin plant which he managed for 18 months before he went
to Edmonton as regional sales manager of McGavin Prairie plants under Archie M. McGavin. He left
McGavin's in 1945.
When he opened the McGavin
plant at Calgary he had "adopted
the prices of the other bakeries"
such as Canadian Bakeries, Model
Bakeries and Golden West, a Weston plant. McGavin's had become
a member of the Alberta Master
Bakers Association of which George
Weir was the Calgary secretary.
Alloway attended Association meetings and said it was an aim of the
Association "to keep uniformity
among the trade." He said some
of the larger customers were given
"secret discounts" which were denied the smaller retailers and it was
the duty of Weir to investigate complaints of price-cutting or secret
discounts and try to have them
eliminated. The Association also
tried to regulate the price and
weight of "sweet goods" and to
eliminate Sunday deliveries. Similar- conditions had prevailed at Edmonton, he said.

districts. Boats leaving Vancouver
were packed and the majority of
workers were bound for Alberni,

Sandwiches, Cakes Can Be
Stored in Empty Lockers
By KAY REX
Canadian Press Staff Writer
OTTAWAt Feb. 15 (CP) — Let's
take a look at those half-empty
food lockers, and a second glance
at the food budget.
At this time of year most of the
vegetables and fruit stored last
Summer have been consumed.
"Waste" space is left.
And we literally mean that. Waste.
Because that space costs money.
Lockers are paid for by the year—
so why leave them half empty?
This is one problem for which
home economists of the consumer
section, Dominion Department of
Agriculture, are trying to find a
solution.
And they've come up with some
encouraging results,
Sandwiches can be kept frozen for
months on end. Cakes also can
be frozen, coming, out as delicious
as the day they were put in.
This news should be cheerful to
the ear of the housewife who must
count lunch-box packing among her
daily chores.
It means she can pack enough
lunches  to  last  a month,  putting
them in the freezer until needed.
BEST FILLINGS
Leftover meat, fish and peanut-
butter are the best fillings for sand
wiches which are to be frozen.
Lettuce, Tomatoes and hardcooked
eggs should be avoided as they do
not keep well. Mayonnaise should
not be used as a spre.-.d as it tends
to make the bread soggy under
freezing. '
Cooked food to be frozen must
be wrapped carefully in moisture
and vapor-proof paper.
The experts say bread also stands
up well under freezing. In the near
future they hope to look into the
possibility of freezing such goodies
as angel-cakes, cookies, rolls and
pies.
So far the results they have obtained are encouraging.

That Easter
Bonnet May
Be Sensation
PARIS, Feb. 15 (Reuters) — Milady's Easter bonnet this year
promises to become the centre of
attention in her Spring silhouette.
Reminiscent of grandfather's
derby, great grandfather's tricorne
or father's wartime forage cap, 1951
hats promise a revolution in styles.
The newest ones, just shown
here in Paris, are worn straight'on
the head, titled slightly forward.
Crowns are important, over tiny
brims. High-crowned hats, derby
inspired, have rippling or scalloped
brims.
Contrasting color and fabric Is
introduced by means of facing or
double brims.
The influence of Scotland shows
in silk glen plaids used for sailor
hats, while forage-inspired caps accompany many suits.
The most-talked-of hat, the star
of Pierre Balmain's first separate
millinery collection, Is made of plywood. It is a tiny sailor shaped in
plywood, edged in leaf-green gros-
grain and trimmed with a few tiny
rosebuds.
Picture hats, for the dressy occasion, have stepped right out of a
Gainsborough painting.
Madame Paulette offers gay
West Indian turbans worn under
large rough straw brims. The two
pieces form one hat but each may
be worn separately.

Will Provides for
Child's Career
TORONTO, Feb. 15 (CP)—A"six-
year-old Hamilton girl who befriended Frederick McGregor the
last six months of the retired contractor's life, will receive a university education, music lessons,
$25 a month when she becomes 18,
and an interest in the proceeds
from the sale of his home.
Mr., Justice Ferguson yesterday
upheld an interpretation of Mr.
McGregor's will benefitting June
Armer, whose mother and Mrs. McGregor died within a few weeks
of each other.
In his home-made will Mr. McGregor stated: "I also leave extra
money for her (June Armer) if
needed for special education to fit
her for any profession she wishes
to follow, musician, doctor. ... She
has the right to choose and to follow and demand what money she
needs to put her to the top."
Canned Fruit
Is Versatile
By MARGARET CARR
Canned fruit, whether purchased
from your grocer or preserved by
you last Summer, is one of the best
things there ever was to have at
hand.
When you plan to serve canned
fruit as it comes from the jar or
can, your family will enjoy it more
if the fruit is opened, poured into
the serving dish and allowed to
chill in the refrigerator for a few
hours before serving.
We Have a number of ways we
like to serve our "preserves" and
there follow recipes for some of
our favorites.
FRUIT DUFF
Grease a baking dish or bowl,
spread drained cherries or other
canned fruit in the bottom; sprinkle
with brown sugar and drop over
the fruit 2 teaspoons of lemon-juice
then cover with your favorite bak
ing powder biscuit dough, making
the dough a little softer than for
biscuits with the addition of a little
more liquid. Fit the dough closely
aruond the sides, cover with oiled
paper and steam for one hour. Then
lift out of the steamer, remove the
paper brush over with butter and
place under the gas flame or elec
trie element of your oven to brown
the crust. Serve hot. Sauce is not
necessary, as the "fruit and sugar
usually form enough sauce for the
dessert, but if desired, extra sauce
may be made from the drained-off
juice, thickening it slightly with
cornstarch, and adding to it a little
more sugar, a few drops of lemon
juice and a teaspoonful of butter.
FRU(T COBBLER
Place the fruit in the bottom of a
greased pudding dish, sprinkle with
brown sugar, dot with butter and
add a tablesp'oonful of the fruit
syrup to which one-half teaspoon of
almond extract has .been added.
Make your favorite baking powder
biscuit dough and roll into an oblong one-quarter inch thick. Brush
with melted butter, sprinkle with
cinnamori and sugar; roll up jelly-
roll fashion;' cut in one-half inch
slices, place the slices on^ the fruit,
then bake in a fairly hot oven (375
deg. F.) for about 35 minutes.

Art Wallace's Interest
In Youth Brought
Student 'Spiel to Nelson
They're starting to call him "Pop"
E Wallace- around the curling rinks, and
|-for T. A. (Art) Wallace there must be
;'a particular satisfaction in the nick-
I name. We have known other men who
have, after years of work for and with
youngsters, earned the tag, and always
it has been a badge that combined
respect and affection. We are probably
not going too far to suggest that the
sobriquet is additionally apt in this
case because Art Wallace, without a
doubt, is the father of student curling
in British Columbia.
Now the hard-working sportsman's
big day is near at hand. And it's an
equally big day for Mrs. Wallace, incidentally, and for all Nelson. The Canadian High Schools Curling Bonspiel is
only three days away.
Nelson has been the curling capital
of B. C. already this season, and will
in the Summer, of course, again stage
its famed Midsummer Bonspiel and
Canadian Summer curling championship. But right now it's concerning itself with being the kid curling capital
and for all of Canada. It's a job we'
could be proud of for its association
.', with healthful things for youth alone,
but we can be additionally proud because, through Pop Wallace, the Kootenay has been represented in the van
of those who worked for the organization of a benefitting sports movement
on a national scale.
Certainly, there have been others
to help, but let's put our share of the
glory right where it belongs, and that
on Art Wallace's shoulders. There are
none among those who are interested
in youngsters' sport and the investing
of a healthful, competitive spirit in
youth but can remember seeing Art
Wallace at the park encouraging young
swimmers, at the Recreation Grounds
cheering on track and field teams and
ball nines, in the arena coaching boxla
teams or on the ice with his Maple
Buds—the tiniest but most spirited
crew to don skates and hockey gear. In
all things Wallace's kids were instilled
with a spirit of keenness and competition. We can remember, perhaps, as
well as any of these things, when Art
Wallace entered a rink of youngsters,
practically, in the Provincial Bonspiel,
and the mild stir aroused when his
. kids showed up in the Little Bonspiel.
That was the start. Next came Saturday High School curling, and then the
Provincial Student Bonspiel.
It is no exaggeration to say that
Nelson has been honored with the
choice as host city for the national
student championship because of Art
Wallace's hand in the founding of the
sport on its present scale. Mr. and Mrs.
^Wallace have had a part in establishing a sport on a national scale, just as
surely as they have done Nelson and
their home-district kids a lasting favor.

Atom "Games" on God's Day
To the Editor;
Sir—I was pleased to read the statement
in the Nelson Daily Newl letter to the Editor
Feb. 8, from members of the Nelson Ministerial Association and Christian leaders of
the community. I am glad that your clergymen answered the S.O.S., not meant for sail- •
ors only, but for Christianity and Christians.'
As we go down to the oceans as Christians crying S.O.S., lt means save our soul,
but no answer comes from our clergy. As you
clergymen stated in your letter,. "In these
rather grave and perilous days we view with
alarm the ever-increasing amount of sporting
activity that is taking^place on Sunday
throughout tlie year/   / ![<':■■>,
"It is not only ;et- yibl'dtir^.pf the, Christian
conscience, but a menace to Cn,risitlB;ha),;effort8
which try to uphold the standard'of'oiir Cb,ris-.
tian democratic way of life."' [ -M- :.";
But clergypen and we Christians ate failr' j
ing to mention many more important igarnes' ;
that are playing in the Christian era, and, ori
God's Day. t'il^e in Nevada, U.S.A., and d,urr!

first week of February,, whaf, tttey s«aii atony,
bomb practice. Isn't it-VioMtirig to Christiaii-
ity?  As blasts went out,  panic struck the
people. As they heard blasts animals were
frightened to death, windows blown up like
balloons, then fell to pieces, radiation spread
over the earth. Does it make us healthy? Is it
the Christian way? Will a barbell or basketball shake our windows or our bodies to pieces
as the atom bomb?
Wake up, Christians! We are sinking.
Wake up, clergy, and go to strange lands to
meet and teach people regardless of their
race, creed, color and nationality. There are
six of- you signed on your letter, and the other
six are missing. You have St. Peter's key to
Christianity; nobody else has it yet. Only the
clergy. No dictator has it yet; just you. Go
ahead and save our souls.

Gardener, Neleon—Is there a quick way to

Cut them down to ground level, and pour

water, add brandy, mint and a little crushed
ice. On top place a small piece of orange and
a small piece of pineapple, and serve.
Curious, Kimberley—What Is the origin of the
word "jingo"?
"By Jingo" was originally employed as a
mild oath and appears to have become common after Motteux translated the phrase "par
Dieu" as "by jingo" in an edition of Rabelais.
The Oxford Dictionary supposes the word to
have been "a piece of conjuror's gibberish".

Of waltzes graceful as the feather'd flight,
Romantic as the  Springtime sparrows ,s}ng.-/
Their dreamy tones amid a morning fiUJ
Enchanting to a pair of glowing hearts"
Are  waltzes,  as  they  flow  throughout  the

So noble, truest ih the beauteous arts,
So towering over anything that's trite.

Then they their waltzes never did .Improve.

Sinclair Lewis
Charlie Crandall, once Managing Editor
of The Montreal Star, referring to the death
of Sinclair Lewis, tells of an evening spent
with the creator of "Main Street" in a Spanish
restaurant on Swallow Street in London. Herb
Bailey, of the British United Press, and Hank
Wales,.of the Chicago Tribune, were there
too, and the latter held the stop-watch' in an
unusual wager.
Lewis bet Crandall that in four minutes he
could write a sonnet fitted around any 14 line-
ending, rhyming words the Canadian editor
cared to jot down. Crandall. wrote down 14
words which rhymed but were absolutely
meaningless. And he lost the bet. Says Crandall, "I still have in my files at home the
sonnet Lewis wrote. It was perfect in rhythm,
had a definite meaning from first to last, and
was quite printable."—Napier Moore In The

Oldtimerfs
Notebook
" by R. G.JOY ""■■"■
Editor's.note: This is a third in-
stallment in the story of Martin
Fry, Kootenay pioneer, by R, 0,
Joy, Historian of the Nelson District Oldtimers Association),
The Winter 1876 was put In by
Martin Fry trading with the Indians. Their only product for barter-
was furs, but they brought In lots
of these, . •
There were no wagon roads In the
country only a pack train trail lead-
Ing from Sandpolnt on the Pend
d'Orellle to the Wild Horse mine In
B.C,, 100 miles North of Bonnera
Ferry, where Fort Steele now is,
The only mall they had the Winter
through was brought from Victoria,
B.C. once a month, The postman
brought the mail on a pack horse
over the mountains by the Dewdney
Trail through Colville and Pend
d'Orellle to Sandpolnt,
He always stopped at the trading post which, of coune wai a
great event. When the snow got
too deep for the homos, tho mall-
man took to snowshoei. The post-
- man's-name wai Brady. Hli-only
companion wai a good big mongrel dog.'
Dick Fry had an old friend at Fort
Steel, who was taken very sick and
on his death bed he bequeathed his
fine bulldog to the Frys. This dog
lived at the post, but Brady's dog
came In and utterly routed him.
There was an old Indian mask at
the store and the next time that
Brady appeared Martin carefully
tied this mask over the bulldog's
head. The effect was terrifying—
in fact so bad that poor Brady's
dog .left In a wild panic and could
not be induced to come back to the
store.
GAME PLENTIFUL
Game was wonderfully-plentiful.
Until the river and the swamps
froze up. The place'was alive with
ducks, geese and now and then
swans. The Indians brought in marten, bear, lynx, muskrat, fisher,
cougar, mink and otter.
In the Spring, Dick and Martin
with one half-breed and one Kootenay Indian took out the1 furs by
pack train. They had about 10
horses and went by the Dewdney
Trail to Hope and on down to New
Westminster. There they left the
pack train apd help and took the
furs by steamer to Victoria. Two
fur dealers bid. on the furs and
they were sold at auction at a very
satisfactory price.
With the proceeds of the furs the
Frys bought goods for •the next
Winter's trade. They bonded the
Victoria goods through Idaho and
back into British Columbia at Port
Hill. The idea of having the two
stores, one on each side of the line,
was to control the whole fur trade
of that part of the country.
FAMILY MOVES
Dick Fry took the pack train back
Martin went by steamer to Shoalwater Bay where his family welcomed him. After quickly settling
up their affairs, selling their oyster
boat etc., Martin and family took
the Verona for Astoria at the mouth
of the Columbia River, from there
by steamer to Wallalula, near Walla
Walla, and there transfered to Baker's Narrow gauge road for Walla
Walla where they met Dick's freight
team. This freight team had been
hired to haul the goods that they
had purchased at Walla Walla-for
the Bonners Ferry store.
The youngest Fry boy, Freddy
Lee, was two years old. The road
only went to Semneacquoteen from
there the goods, Mrs. Fry and Freddy were taken to Bonners Ferry
by the pack train.      .,   .
The Fry family settled down hap
pily though there were no white
neighbors. There was another good
Winter's trade in furs and next
Spring Dick went off to sell the
furs leaving Martin in charge.

Absent Tse-Tung
Rouses Rumors
BY FRED HAMPSON
HONG KONG, Feb, 15 (AP) -
Observers Of the China scene began
to express curiosity today about the
whereabouts of Mao Tse-Tung,
Communist Chinese leader.
They nottd he had failed to appear at three Important functions in
the last tew days.
Reports In this strategic vantage
>olnt Mi last month that Mao had
gone or was going to Moscow to
oonfer with Stalin on the Koroan
war and other Asiatic developments.
Mao's last known public appearance in Peiping was-Jan, 86, when
he attended the celebration of Indian National Day,
The huge-Chinese-sponsored celebration of the first anniversary of
the Chinese-Soviet treaty signing
was held Wednesday in Peiping.
Nearly all the Chinese Communist
government and party leaders were
reported there, along with all foreign diplomats. But not Mao,
. Two hours earlier, RusBlan Ambassador N, V. Roshohin gave a
cocktail party at the Russian embassy. Reports listed Chinese Red government and party leaders there up
to Premier Chou En-Lal and Gen.
Chu Teh, the Red's Army Commander. But not Mao.
Communist propaganda describing these events did not mention the
absence of the Reds' No. 1, but his
name was glaringly missing from
the lists,
Mao does not always attend such
functions. But it was intriguing that
ho did not appear at any of the
Chinese-Soviet treaty celebrations,
which received top billing op the
Communists' political-social sched-
ude for the week.
MOSCOW, Feb. 15 (AP)—Deputy
Premier V. M. Molotov headed a
big group of distinguished Russian
leaders at a reception given by the
Chinese Embassy last night to mark
the first anniversary of the Soviet-
Chinese treaty.
Molotov led a toast to the Chinese
army and the Soviet army and to
Mao Tze-tung, head of the Central
People's Government of the People's Republic of China, and Chu
Teh, Mao's army commander-in-
chief.
Foreign Minister Andrei Y. Vlsh-
insky led a toast to the "Korean
people's liberation army" and all
countries "following in the historic

There will be no rest for Eddio
Wares' wandering Maple Leafs.
They start another W.I.H.L, series,
three games in as many nights,
after just arriving home from a
successful Coast jaunt, batting .500.
The travel-weary locals just left
tho train at 10 o'clock Thursday
night, but they'll be out to play
the Kimberley Dynamiters here tonight, before playing a weekend
pair in Spokane,
Not that a two-win record on the
road is anything to hide under a
bushel, but it was only the breaks
that stopped Nelson from coming
home with. a better show. I have
already mentioned in a previous
column the break that gave Nanaimo Clippers their 6-5 overtime win,
but the breaks were really tough
for Nelson around Dinny McManus
in the final game of the tour at
llanaimo. In the. first period the
tired locals should have piled up a
lead, and at one time when Nelson
was all over the Clippers, Eddie
Wares hit the crossbar from close
in, when he had pulled the little
Irishman in the Clipper nets, to the
ice. However, that's the way the
game goes.
Eddie Wares was playing much
better on the Leaf defence. Johnny
Harms is still improving greatly on
the front line and Neil McClenaghan is also playing better hockey.
Now that the scribbler has seen
Nanaimo three times, he can't see

could knock off the'Clippers come
playoff time.
Players were bothered by smoke
in both the Kerrisdale and Nanaimo rinks, a trouble which has been
found in the Cominco arena too,
but to make things even worse,
there was cold water ' in the
showers.
Except that the Leafs are leg
weary and tired, they came out of
the series in fair shape, with no
really serious injuries. There are
just a couple of bruises and stiff
limbs.
It will be the last appearance
of the kimberley Dynamlter6
here before the playoffs when
the same clubs pair off In the
W.I.H.L. semis. Sully Sullivan
will most likely be out of action
tonight. It Isn't known whether
he will be ready for the playoffs or not.
The five Nelson players (Ernie
Gare, George Barefoot, Bill Haldane, Johnny Harms and Red
Koehle) who were picked to play
on the- all-star team which meets
Spokane Tuesday, aren't overanxious to play in the "classic." In
the remaining 10 days of the
W.I.H.L. schedule, Nelson already
has six games, with only a day
rest before the playoffs. It's easy
to imagine how much they relish
the exhibition match.
Sports Eye got in on a little chat
between B.C.A.H.A. President,
Gerry Thomson and C.A.H.A. bigwig Doug Grimston, who maintained that Kerrisdale could not use
Herb Lovett in the playoffs. Al Pi-
card of the Saskatchewan branch
refused a couple of clubs in that
region the use of Lovett, recently
released by Saskatoon Quakers,
and now Grimston was saying unofficially that the Monarchs could
not usj2 Lovett in the playoffs.
(There was a new clause injected
in the C.A.H.A; constitution this
season whereby' players could be
registered  'til  February  10.)
A notice had been sent to the
various clubs that they could ink
released pucksters 'til the tenth.
Those players would naturally include players from pro ranks, as
well as from senior and major circuits.
This reporter was not positive of
the details of that clause, whether
the players had to be registered in
the provincial branch by that date,
or in Toronto, as Grimston thought.
Tn any case, if Lovett is not eligible
to play for the Monarchs, it isn't
likely that Stan Jones, another]
Quaker castoff who was picked up
by Vernon, will be eligible. Other
late minute roster changes included
Johnny Ursaki going from Kamloops to Vernon, Alex Watt to Vernon Canadians frbm Nanaimo, Hod
Booth going home to .Prince Albert
from Vernon, and Lou Holmes supposedly going to. Kerrisdale from
Canadians. Reinstated pros Busher
Jackson and Kevin Conway had
been picked up by Nanaimo.
Kamloops' protest of the Nanaimo 7-1 triumph, was based on the
Clippers' use of Kevin Conway, an
unre/nstated pro. Apparently Busher Jackson, who. was used in the
previous Nanaimo win over Kerrisdale, was eligible,  ft,

In Rough Game
SASKATOON, Feb, 15 (CP) -
Saskatoon Quakers tonight eked

A free-for-all broke out in the

Maxim's Crown
CHICAGO, Feb. 15 (AP) -
Middleweight Champion Bay Robinson set his sights on Joey Maxim's
lightheavyweight crown today, still
claiming the welter crown.
"Sure We'd like to fight Maxim,"
I said George Gainford, Ray's manager. "It's the big money match.
We've been after him for a year.
Even got a $75,000 guarantee for
Maxim from Bil Kyne in San Francisco. Positively! there's a chance of
our fighting Maxim this Summer.'
Gainford was equally positive a-
bout Robinson'swelter title claims.
"It's up to us to give it up," he
said. Robinson however, added he'd
"rather not" fight a- a welter but
would try If "my manager wants me
to."
It's an academic question because
both the New York and Illinois
Athletic Commissions insist he-automatically yielded up the 147-pound
crown when his hand, was lifted as
winner over Jake Lamotta in the
13th round Wednesday night at Chicago stadium.  '     ,

Gainford claims the return bout

motta-Robinson bout in June on a
30-30-per-cent split is "an outside

Robinson got 15 per cent plus

of $21,873,31, the "official audit of
the Wednesday night fight revealed today. Jake's 45 per cent
TV cut came to $62,611.93. The
revised gross gate was $186,866.05.
There was a slight swelling of
Robinson's left hand and a lump
near his left eye today.
"I won't fight until I get feeling

TODAY'S News Pictures
A Victim of Old Man Winter's Vengeance
Science Marches On
This unusual parachute picture was made during a recent survey
by the U.S. Bureau of Medicine and Surgery at Patuxent, Maryland,
to determine how the position ot the body and bulkiness of flight
clothing will affect a pilot's rate of fall in a free fall parachute descent. It was found that the type of suit worn had a significant effect
on the rate of descent—a pilot wearing Winter flying suit falling
slower than one in lighter, less-wind-resisting gear. Differences due
to the tilt of the body during the fall were also found highly significant.—Central Press Canadian.
Starving Cougar Invades Hut
,,.^r-.„_T.,,._..,.^|
There doesn't seem to be any relief in sight yet for residents of
both Canada and U.S. who have been suffering from one of th#
worst cold waves to hit the continent for some time. A six-day oort
of snow and ice has taken more than 200 lives In the U.S., while In
Canada fires attributed to the cold weather outbreak have claimed
17 lives and caused over $1,000,000 in damages. A victim of Winter's
wrath, seen above, is an ice-coated fireman, Capt. Neil Mac-Lean, of
Winnipeg, Man.—Central Press Canadian.
Outstanding Athletic'
The cougar, above, plqnged
through the window of a Government telegraph patrol hut
near Campbell River, B. C., attacking Edward McLean, 63, in
the small room. Before McLean
killed the animal he was clawed
in the face and arms (right). Obviously starving, the animal
weighed only 52 pounds, but it
nearly succeeded in killing McLean.

Conciliators
Fail lo Settle
(.P., Guild Case
OTTAWA, Feb. 15 (CP) — Proposals for settling a dispute between The Canadian Press, national
news-gathering agency, and the
American Newspaper Guild (C.I.O.-
C.C.L.) were submitted today by
a Federal Conciliation Board and
accepted in part by the CP.
The majority and minority findings of the board, which reported
to Labor Minister Gregg it had
failed to settle the 10-month dispute are not binding on the parties.
The Canadian Press, in a state-
merit issued at Toronto headquarters
said it is in accord with a majority
recommendation for five-per-cent
salary increases for editorial men
with a minimum weekly increase of
$3. It also accepted a minority finding for minimum pay bases for editorial men in their first two years
with CP.
The Guild countered with a Tori
onto statement saying the majority
report was proof of 'complete lack
of good faith" on the part of CP
in its dealings with the Guild. It
said the board had seen through
"the sham and hypocrisy of the
Canadian Press ca^e." '
The Guild did not say whether it
accepts the board's proposals.
(The majority report stated it was
difficult to accept CP's "unyielding"
attitude on some points in negotiations as evidence of hargaining in
good faith.)
The CP statement said It most
emphatically denies evidence of
anything other than good faith was
shown in its position that it must
have authority in transferring, promoting, demoting and dismissing
employees engaged. In- handling
news.. It had sought common ground
on salaries and working conditions.
The majority report was filed by
County Court Judge Archibald
Cochrane of Brampton, Ont., Board
Chairman, arid Herbert Orliffe,
Toronto lawyer and Guild nominee.
Gordon ■ Munnoch, Toronto lawyer
and CP nominee submitted the minority report.
The findings dealt with a dispute that has been in progress since
last April 5, when the Guild was
certified by the Canada Labor Relations Board as bargaining agent
for a unit of employees in CP's
editorial department. The board Included editorial workers and messengers in the unit.
The CP, news co-operative owned
jointly by 91. daily newspapers, informed the board that at last Oct. 1
the unit as designated by the
C.L.R.B. consisted of 73 employees,
of whom 15 were messengers.
Both majority and minority findings represented compromis In varying degrees between the views of,,
the union and management. In
some cases, Guild demands were approved. In others continuance- of
CP practice was recommended.
Elsewhere, middle ground was suggested.
Both reports proposed upward
slary adjustments. The majority suggested in the light of living costs,
a five-per-cent increase with a $3
week minimum, with messengers,
comprising 15 of the bargaining unit,
excluded. These increases would be
retroactive to Jan. 1, 1951.
