The Crown Is appealing the sentences against the six, convicted on arson and dynamiting charges arising from violence in the South-Central Interior In the last several years. The sentences ranged from one day to three months. Mr, Justice Manson said In written reasons regarding them that "long prison terms wtuld foster bitterness and a feeling that thoy(, the oonvlcted Doukhobors) had been harshly dealt with." Eric Pepler, Deputy Attorney- General, told the Appeal Court that for setting fire to a new $85,- 000 school at Tarrys, B.C., and for dynamiting the tomb of a deceased leader, Mike Berlsenkoff should have been sentenced to eeven yean. Instead he was given one day's eentenoe. '- Convicted of the same tomb bombing—that of the late Peter Verigin at Brilliant In the -West Kootenays—Mike Zarubln had received 18 days In Jail. Mr. Pepler submitted the sentence should have been one year. Alex Datchkoff was given one day for burning the Tarrys school 18 miles Southwest of Nelson, when five years was called for. Peter, Swetllshoff, convicted of dynamiting tha tomb, burning the school and burning a jam factory In Brilliant In 1943, had received a three-month sentence. Mr. Pepler said 16 years would have been appropriate. , He said Mr. Justice Manson had placed the six under 53000 bond each to keep the peace for two years. *,:'; - • He "seemed to think they were penitent and relied on their prom Ise not to do It again," Mr. Pep ler said. Unrepresented by counsel, the six convicted members bf the religious sect—all from the radl cal Sons of Freedom fringe—spoke through Interpreters,". They knelt before the three Jus tlces. of the Appeal Court and asked for mercy. Judgment was reserved till Friday, j ,:-'-- . . ., Mr. Justice Manson wrote fur ther that'he was convinced all the prisoners "are tools of, outlaws."'1 '■'.'- "They obeyed commands' as religious orders. It must be borne In mind that all Doukhobors are al most illiterate, with negligible schooling. They have not the ed ucatlon to understand (their re llgion) even If they could read." Mr. Pepler, reading the Justice's remarks, Interjected to say that "sentences should be In accordance with the law," that "a man may get six months In jail for selling a bottle of liquor but an other gets one day for burning a school." w& WEATHER FORECAST .Kootenay: Overcast with occasional showers ot rain or wet ■now.

King's Counsel Bill Gets Second Reading VICTORIA, March 15 (CP) Second reading was given the King's Counsel Bill in the British Columbia House today, the measure will put the question of appointments up to the Chief Justices of the Appeal and Supreme Courts and a Committee of the Benchers of the Law Society. Defending the measure, Attorney General Gordon S. Wismer, who sponsored the move, said that in the past suggestions had been made that politics entered into appointments. Such ideas were wrong and took away'the prestige and honor of the distiction. The new method would ensure no regard would be paid to a lawyer's political, religious or racial affiliation. Gentile, Jew, White, Black or Brown, C.C.F.'er Liberal or Conservative all would be treated alike. Only Communists who advocate overthrow of Government by violence would be barred. Opposition leader Harold Winch said he wasn't so sure of the Bill. He termed it a compromise that didn't change matters any.' The Attorney-General would still make recommendations after "consultation" with the Judges and Bench- ers. People would still have the impression that appointments would be made on a patronage basis.

D. David (L—Quebec) 'suggested today that a world government be created to oppose and destroy 'the threat of Communism. Senator David, former Quebec provincial secretary, said such a government would be all-embracing in its nature. He spoke during resumption of the debate on the Speech from the Throne in the Upper Chamber. , The government would have power to wage war, maintain armies, grant citizenship, create currencies, establish free trade within its orbit apd forge a foreign policy that would speak for all its adherents. This would mean sacrifice for democratic countries, including Canada, but, he said, it now was a question of sacrificing a little sovereignty or losing life and liberty before the advance of the Communist hordes. In the initial stages of today's sitting, Senator Wishart Robertson, government leader, gave notice of a resolution' for the creation of standing committees to scrutinize government estimates. Senator Calrlne Wilson (L—On tarlo), anxious to stimulate the flow of Immigration to Canada, Introduced a motion to place the government's Immigration Act be fore the standing committee on immigration and labor for scrutiny. Senator John T.' Haig, Progressive; Conservative leader, said he would vote for the investigation, but first he would want a statement of government immigration -policy. He had. fears that many new immigrants coming to Canada may not find employment. He opposed any move which would put these people on relief and increase the burden of the Canadian taxpayer. Russian Cold War Profit High In Germany While U.S. Loses Heavily BERLIN, March 15 (AP)—Russia maizes an annual profit of $250,000,- 000 from the cold war in Germany while the United States loses at least $700,000,000, Western Allied economists estimated today. The economists put it this way: Untrammelled by four-power restrictions, the Soviet government takes its profit in the form <•'• Pur" rent production from East Zone industries. Labelled "reparations," East German heavy machinery,- chemicals, optical goods, electrical apparatus and other manufactures flow steadily to the Soviet frontier. In addition, the Kremlin physically owns 30 per cent of East German factories as Soviet stock companies. By Contrast, the United States 'has pumpeii as much as $1,000,000,- . 000 a year Into West Germany as post-war relief and recovery aid. 8uchAmerican expenditures during the current year are expected to Teach $700,000,000. Since the Russian policy of reparations from current production was initiated, in the Winter of 1948-47) it has been.'. opposed - by - the Western Allies, especially the United States. Their objections were, wasted breath as far as curtailing the tribute.' To help East German Communists develop a two-year economic plan, the Soviet Union of its own accord has trimmed zonal reparations about five per cent in the last'year. But this represents no, tactical success for the Western * powers. It merely gives Soviet schemes a better chance to flourish in the former Reich. High School Students To Tour UBC.

A State Department spokesman said the Civil Service Board's recommendation that Service be recalled was received by the Department just a few hours after McCarthy had told a Senate Investigating Committee: "I earnestly request that this committee ascertain immediately if Service was not considered as a bad security risk - by i the Loyalty •Review Board of the Civil Service Commission in a decision handed down on March .3 of this year." -.. . Mr., Drew's contribution to the debate lasted 115 minutes; Mr. St. Laurent had his* say in 12 minutes. Mr. Drew criticized the Government on a score of-points, accusing it of "self-adulation," urging it to ditch its strait-jacket" of- exchange controls and repeating his party's demand for a Commonwealth conference ,to open the floodgates of Commonwealth trade, Mr. St. Laurent; with the promise that he would purposely keep his remarks short, charged Mr. Drew with waging "partisan political warfare" and' said he would leave It. to the House and the country to Judge the "value" of Mr. Drew's marathon speech. The .CCF. non-confidence motion, a traditional Opposition thrust, was appended to a Progressive Conservative amendment to the main motion for adoption of the address in reply to.ihe speech irorh the throne, the Parliamentary vehicle through, which the Government outlines its legislative program. It added a few words to the Progressive Conservative motion —still awaiting a vote — which charged the Government with deliberately "suppressing" last year's report of a flour Industry combine and "falling" to take action to .expand markets, to Inaugurate an over-all social security, program and to take Steps against espionage and Commun Utlo adttyity. .

Mr; DreW "charged the Government was "stalling" on election promises in its move to set up a committee on old-age security and then swung back to the : 1045' Dominion-Provincial Conference. He and Mr. St. Laurent tangled over the question of whether or not there was an , understanding that that conference yould be convened. As Premier of Ontario, said Mr. Drew, he had made repeated requests for resumption of the conference. He then swung at Agriculture Minister Gardiner, absent from the Chamber, and charged that he had sought to make a "political platform" of the ^Commons the other day when he reread to the Chamber a "cheap, political tub thumping" speech which .the Min Ister had broadcast In last year's election campaign.. Mr. St. Laurent, when he rose, said he had'no. intention of making a "tub-thumping" speech. The Chamber, by comparison, had heard Mr. Drew's 115-minute oration, some of it "very amusing," some oi it "somewhat insulting." ' He did not feel that much of Mr. Drew's address would tend 'towards the betterment of the Canadian people." , If all speeches from the Opposition were In that category, he was sure this, country would have a ' Liberal Government for a "very long time."-, , ' \ He would leave it to the public to "access the valueL of vyha| is bOirig done here." NOT FOR WELFARE Thurs far in the - debate, there had been 82 speeches. Twenty-one of them had come from the 40 Progressive Conservative Members, 11 from the C.C.F. Members and eight from the 10 Social Crediters. The 100 Liberals, had delivered only 41. He felt ■' th»tv. the. Opposition speeches were "a good deal moro concerned with partisan political warfare than with the welfare of the people." .... But Mr. Drew had spoken of "twisting and quibbling in debate. Last night, he recalled, Mr. Drew launched an attack on Defence Minister Claxton and read a report which he said quoted Mr. Claxton as saying Canada would have the highest percentage of jet planes of any country in'the world. Challenged on that statement, Mr.* Drew in todays debate had tried to support lt by reading a Canadian Press dispatch which quoted Mr. Claxton as saying that 80 per cent of Federal moneys going into aircraft was being- spent oh jets, a "higher percentage than any coiin- .try we know of.' "" if He would l^ave it to the Home memt).er3hip,y,«8i4t-Mi^Sti..Laurerit, to determine where there" Was "twisting or quibbling/' ,'• " Mr. Drew had said, too; that he had sought a resumption of the Dominidn-Provincial Conference. "Well, I inay have been unfair in my appraisal of what the Honorable Member then wanted," said tha Prime Minister. "I felt that he' wanted to have partisan, political warfare. It probably Was unfair to him—but you heard his speech thia afternoon."; In any event, the conference now was being reconvened.' ' Mr. Drew sniped at Fisheries Minister Mayhew's suggestion tha other day for establishment of a national export-Import corporation to dispose of Canadian surpluses on a "barter" basis with non-dollar areas. Mr. Mayhew had changed that speech 'to make clear—so thg Minister said—that the corporation Wai to be operated by private industry and not by the Government.- That change, Mr. Drew felt, must have been "prompted by ; su'bse- .quent thought and discussion." One of the things that made it so diffi- cut for the House was the Minster's statement that this was' his own 'idea. "You haven't offered any suggestion today," Mr. Mayhew inter-, jected. CLAMOR RISES Amid a growing clamor of noise on both sides of the House,- Mr. Drew said the Minister knew "perfectly well" that a number of suggestions for opening trade had been put. forward by the Progressive Conservative Party. i And in This Corner BRISTOL, England, March 15 (AP)—Does politeness really pay?

OTTAWA,' March 16 (CP) - Tho grain trade of Western Can; ada could stand a substantial Increase In Its .low freight rates without Injury, a railway economist told the Royal Commission on Transportation. Testifying for the abolition of the 1026 statute fixing the special "Crow's Nest Pass" freight rates on grain in the West, P. C. Armstrong, Canadian Pacific Railway grain expert, declared "superstition" , and 'tradition" were largely responsible for the West's contention that the rates are indispensable. Mr. Armstrong, chief witness ln the CPR's attempt to have the Crow's Nest statute repealed, spent the day ln attacking Western claims that raising of the rates would be a heavy blow to the grain economy Of the Prairies. , • In the process, he got Into a •harp tangle with one of the chief'defenders of the Crow's Nest rates—M, A. MacPherson, Saskatchewan counsel—who expressed rosontmont at what the Prairie lawyer termed Insinuation that the rate issue was being used for political purposes, The economist's testimony constituted the major phase ot the CPR's campaign to wipe out the sub-normal rates. The Crow's Nest statute, which sets rates on the bulk of Western grain movements at 1807 levels, will be defended later by spokesmen for the Western Provinces and its grain trade, Meanwhile, preliminary skirmishing has been under way for several weeks. Today Mr. Armstrong, consulting economist to the CPR, gave general economic testimony to the effect that the grain rates do not benefit the farmer particularly. And he specifically attacked several points put forward in briefs tiled earlier by the Prairie governments, the Wheat Pools of the three Provinces and the United Grain Growers, big Prairie farm co-operative. "TOO EXAGGERATED" Major statement in ?the joint Prairie Governments' brief had been that alteration of the Crow's Nest rates would be ""ruinous"?; to the wheat-growing areas. • Mr. Armstrong labelled that- as "so exaggerated as to be of nu value al all as-an econo uie argument " "A » quite "substantial increase would be given now without upsetting the apple-cart," the economist declared. • ' Hon. W. P. A. Turgeon, Commls: slon Chairman, pressed the CPR witness for an estimate of how much rates might be raised without harming the grain industry. Mr. Armstrong declined to be nailed down to a figure. He said rates on wheat could be raised several - cents a bushel, but It would take oareful study before a figure could be set. The question of doubling rates arose during examination by Mr. MacPherson of C. E. Jefferson, CPU Traffic Vice-Pre„dent. Mr. Jefferson had said doubling the Reglna- Lakehead rate of 20 cents per 100 pounds would not be unreasonable. Mr. Armstrong also said today that statements ln the Prairie Government brief concerning he relationship between Canadian and United States freight rates on grain reflected a "complete misunderstanding." He said 0. 8, Wheat wat more remunerative to the grower than Canadian, despite much higher freight rates in the U. 8, That showed the unimportance of freight rates it a factor In determining the -formers' returns from grain. These were let by market conditions. Attacking the low rates from the viewpoint of their use as a subsidy to the farmer, Mr. Armstrong said they were "clumsy" and "ineffective" for this purpose. Actually, he said ,the benefits were more likely to go to dealers and operators of ocean carriers handling export grain. Whatever might be the saving on grain, he declared, everybody along the line "took a cut at it" before the grower had a chance. While conceding that subsidies might be necessary If Canadian farmers faced price disaster, Mr. Mr. Armstrong said the way to do this was not through forcing the railways to carry grain at low tolls, One of two methods should be "used:.. V - ;*' - -,-: 1, International sales agreements, 2. Permitting Canadian wheat to be sold on the open market, with the Dominion Government setting floor prices.

Just a shot showing them from the rear, I feel this'Is necessary to vindicate Mr. Stewart Otherwise, he appears to^be merely a drunk." So far the U.-I. execs have said a a flat "No." They think it should be left up to the audience whether or not there is a Harvey.. But Mrs. Chase ls still arguing. REAL TO HER Perhaps her persistence is because (0/iMAr ttfi. with WlaJiitw. TJtaAtin. ?294v Harvey Is real to her. "I was brought up on the Celtic legends about large animals," she said. "My family originally came from Ulster." Mrs, Chase related that she bad been searching for a play idea several, years ago. She awoke one morning with the Idea of a man who made friends with a pooka, as 'the over-size animals are called ln Irish legend. Thus Elwood P. Dowd and Harvey were born. < . Harvey appeared in public only once, The play's producer, the late Brock Pemberton, was opposed to the Idea. But he agreed to let Harvey appear onstage at the end ol the second act in a tryout before an audience of servicemen., "Mr. Pemberton was very nice about it,' 'said Mrs. Chase. "He paid ?050 for a beautiful costume. But after the pooka appeared on the stage ,the audience froze. The comedy was lost." She still thinks Harvey should make an appearance in the film,* but this time at the end. Jimmy Stewart doesn't side with her. Along with the producers, he believes his six- foot sidekick should remain unseen. The invisible bunny is. still trouping the U.S. with the road company of "Harvey," six years after his debut. He is playing his 63rd week to London audiences and appears in Swedish, Norwegian, Danish and Finnish versions. He will soon open irt Paris. That's the only place where Mrs. Chase is worried about his chances. "I'm not sure the French people will go for the play," she remarked, "It's not their kind of comedy. And there's no sex in, 'Harvey'." , Not unless you're another pooka ■ '—■—! —« Camp Lister ... CAMP LISTER, B. C-Johnnle Huscroft was 'guest of his grand mother, Mrs. Riddel at Kitchener.

Public Demands Reform Of U.Ke Voting System 40 YEAR8 AGO From The Dally News of March 16,1910 Three demonstration farms are to be operated in the Kootenay district this year, and another three in the Okanagan district, an ap propriation of $10,000 having been granted by the Legislature this Spring, M. S. Middleton, Assistant Horticulturist for the district, has! announced. ' ■ F. A. Starkey, President of the Board of Trade, has appointed W» F. Roberts, W, R. Haldane and W. G. Foster a committee to take up the matter of having the lakes in the district stocked with different varieties of fish, with a view to making a report on the subject at the next meeting of the Board of Trade. By ALAN HARVEY Canadian Press Staff Writer LONDON, March 15 (CP) — A landslide of letters demanding reform of Britain's system of voting has followed the Feb. 23 general election. Indignant correspondents contend that the present method, once described as the world's most discreditable, should be replaced by proportional representation or the alternative vote. These are among the points raised in correspondence columns of the independent Times and Manchester Guardian and the News Chronicle, both Liberal: 1. The-present system of single votes, in single-member constituencies, similar to that used in Canadian Federal elections, and allowing the elector no second choice among the candidates, has done much to create today's standoff between the two big Parties. 2. Of 625 members elected to the House of Commons, 186 received n minority of votes cast in their con stituencies. 3. The Liberals polled 2,600,000 votes but obtained only nine seats. Several writers.suggested a country-wide postal ballot on the question. One correspondent recalled that the late J. L. Garvin, Editor of the independent Sunday Observer, had called Britain's system one of the most discreditable in the world. Britain's Proportional Representation ^Society, founded in 1884, re- por'te'd "a flood of inquiries" at Its Lopdon headquarters following the near-deadlock produced by the Feb. 23 vote. Under the proportional representation, electors select candidates In order of preference. The same thing happens under the alternative vote. The chief.difference between the two systems is that proportional representation returns more than one member ln each constituency. The alternative vote applies to constituencies electing one member only. A spokesman for the Society said that in the last Provincial election in Alberta, with proportional representation in Calgary and Edmonton, and the alternative vote in country districts, was supplied a striking example of varying results. In the country districts, the So ciety said, the Social Credit Party won 58 per cent of the total vote and won all 47 seats. In Calgary and Edmonton, under proportional representation, Social Credit won five, C.CF. two, Liberals two, and one other.

Rare Paralysis Attacks Lamb GUELPH, Ont., March 15 (CP)— Treatment was begun today on a three-week-old lamb flown from Lethbridge, Alta., for diagnosis of a rare type of paralysis.

They said the treatment ls in the experimental stage, but an alteration of the lamb's diet may bring a cure. O.V.C. officials and Dominion anl- 'But it seems to me the industry Is getting to the point where all an actor has to do IS get arrested for something or get messed up in some immoral affair and stardom is guaranteed." . ■_,. The Motion Picture Producers' Association fired back ln a statement saying that Hollywood has no more than its share of people who violate the moral code. It said further that Johnson's proposed method of attacking the situation would menace American freedoms, and was "a police State BilL"- Johnson proposed crackdown legislation under which every American actor and producer would'have to be licensed by a Commerce Department Bureau, and a $10,000 permit obtained for inter-State shipment of every motion picture. 8TABLE HUMOR Actors and producers could be denied licences If they had been convicted on morals charges or admitted committing acts "constituting the essential elements of a crime involving moral turpitude." Last night the radio and television industries in the United States came in for some public criticism also. Chairman. Wayne Coy of the Federal Communications Commission said in an Oklahoma speech it was time for them to clean house in the matter of crime programs and "livery stable humor." A movie fan of 40 years' standing, Johnson criticized what he called the "nauseating commercialism" of R.K.O. Studios ln releasing ths picture "Stromboli" about the Urns Miss Bergman gave birth to Rossel- lini's son. Bergman was the star, Rossellinl the director. He said that action "sets in all- time low ln shameless exploitation and disregard for good public morals." The Senator's broadside brought quick response from R.K.O. In Hollywood, an R.K.O, Studio spokesman Came to the support of "Stromboli" but offered no defence to the shots directed at Miss Bergman. DAMAGED TOE BRINGS CASH, ROMANCE TOO VANCOUVER, B.

He replied: "If we go down .strange area with a girl we get beaten up—so we do the same."

The threat, phoned from a call-box,- whs usually the same: "The boys are coming 'round to 'do' your place." '.-'.' In most cases the threatened attacks did not materialize, but uniformed as well as plainclothes officers had to be taken off their normal duties to watch the threatened premises.' ■ ',-.■' ' Several police: officials criticized the "excessive leniency" of police courts dealing with such. cases.

It was stated, too, that a change In the system of distribution of the municipalities' shares of the tax was tinder study. Education Minister W. T. Straith Said during discussion of estimated expenditures of his department in the coming year, efforts were being made "td find some formula for some equal distribution of the sales tax." Replying to a question from W. A. C. Bennett (Cln—South Okanagan), the education minister said also he favored stipulating to municipalities that their shares of the sales tax were for education purposes only. Then, he stated, the mill rates for school taxes would give a true picture. As it now was, sales tax money Was being used to help pay for increased Salaries of municipal employees, other than school teachers, and for other purposes. Consequently the school tax showed a higher increase than it should. APPLIES FOR CITIZENSHIP Ladislou Berecz of Camp Lister Wednesday filed his application for Canadian citizenship.

By FORBES RHUDE • Canadian Press Business Editor Does the office lnter-com or telephone give you an uneasy feeling that the boss ls always right beside you? Or do you feel a little nervous when he makes a tour of office or plant? Well, prepare to be more uneasy and more nervous, Pretty soon he can come at you without warning, not only with biting or booming voice, but with gestures and grimaces—all at the flick of a switch, Worse than that, he can be looking over your shoulder without your even knowing it. The answer is, of course, television. For that little package of light and movement has only started to unveil its wonders. There can be television hookups that would put the boss right on your desk, or, If he didn't want to get that personal about it, a central screen by which he can speak to a group; this especially for large offices and plants, or those ln another centre than the head office, 8ECRET WATCHER Or there can be the reverse, where he looks down the line without him self being seen and sees Just what's happening in any corner of the premises.

More Consideration Due Fish, Game Vote VICTORIA, B. C, March 15 (CP) —More consideration will be given to the. vote for'fish and. game conservation and protection, Premier Byron Johnson told the House today when Attorney-General Gordon Wismer's estimates .were under review. Members on all sides of the House have protested during the throne and budget debates against any curtailment in appropriations' for the Game Branch which had been cut $14,000 this year, due, said Mr. Wismer, to the policy of reducing all departmental votes. The Attorney-General added that personally he'd prefer to have all licence fees and taxes collected from fishermen and hunters turned back to the Game Branch to insure against depletion of game and fish. The sportsmen themselves would welcome such higher licence fees it assured it meant 100 per cent allocation to the Game Branch, and not be fumed into consolidated revenue. The Premier then Interjected that it was the Game Branch itself which reduced its estimates after the Government had called for curtailment ln all departments. The sum of $200,000 had been set aside to meet extraordinary expenses of departments, which had cut their votes, and assistance might be given the Game Branch from this fund, he added. R.A.F.

"My Jungle Venture "—Nelson Woman Tells of Mindanao Job ] Deep. In the Jungles of Mindanao Island, two women oc-1, eu'py'a tiny three-bulldlng mining camp, One pf the women is Miss Edythe Thomson of Nelson, widely known, to the mining fraternity of Birtish Columbia and for many years Secretary of the Chamber of Mines of Eastern British Columbia. Only three women have ventured so deeply into the jungle, Miss Thomson, a Mrs. Hinckley and a Mrs. Holiman from a nearby plantation. Miss Thomson is an employee of Panamlnas Mining Company, a subsidiary of Venture Ltd. of Canada. '. , , She joined the company in New York following service in the RCAF Women's Division and a brief career in New York with Alaska Air Lines. After four years with the company in New York, in June, 1948, she flew to Manila to take charge of field offices. Before leaving- she visited her brother and sister-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. W, Stanley Jackson here! Recently .she journeyed from Manila to the jungle camp expecting to stay for two months. -- Her first impressions are told in a letter on "My Jungle, Venture" sent to the Nelson Daily News. It follows: Thinking you might be interested in' my first trip to the jungle, I will try and put down on paper a few of my experiences. I left Manila at 8 a.m. on Janunry 25 and arrived in Davao on the Island' of, Mindanao at. 1 p.m. after a very bumpy trip. At Davao I was met by the boy ln charge of our office there and was immediately whisked into a taxi and away we went over a bumpy narrow road, and we kept this up for three hours. The boys had provided me with sandwiches and drinks, and the drive was really very interesting, and in parts beautiful, the groves of coconuts and small picturesque native huts. About 4 in. the afternoon we arrived at a small barrior village called Mawab, where I was met by Mr. Hinckley and Mr. Kniazeff. Mr. Hinckley is our mine superintendent and Mr. Kniazeff is the original locator of the ground we are now working. We had a few cold beers as water is not safe to firlnk here, and then crossed the river to where our truck, an army surplus 6x6, was being loaded for a trip to the mine. In order to cross the river, where the bridge had washed out we boarded a small raft, consisting of a few planks;'propelled by a native Boy hanging onto a bamboo cable, all. very, exciting and slightly wet. Then we started on our way, and what a ride. The load was about 2V4 Ions .md in -i (WO ilu- speed was no. i io it, Inn Hu road was worse and ".- went up and we went down.

Then the cable was too short and so it had to be spliced, and then about the'fourth attempt the piri'in the winch broke. By this time it was getting on towards 6 p.m. and how those boys worked half buried in the mud to they showed me my room.-.which was very tiny. The bed was wood with no mattress, just a blanket and a mosquito net, and I slept soundly until 6 in the morning. When I was up I found to my dismay that my suitcase held nothing but shoes. repair the winch, but finally as [Fortunately Mr. Kniazeff was able darkness settled in they gave it up to find a new tooth brush andsome for a bad job, and so here we were miles from nowhere, and nothing, but jungle. Finally one of the boys called Neibres, a very fine lad, started out in search of a caraboa, and about 8 or so he arrived with a caraboa in tow, and hitched behind it a small-sled on top of which was perched a box about the size of a dynamite box. Into this went my small suitcase, and me, and off we started. It must have looked ridiculous. Thank goodness for a sense of humor. We went on through the mud and water behind the caraboa for nearly two kilometers. One of the boys trudged behind in the mud keeping the small sled on the road, and followed by Mr. Kniazeff. The box-was half full of muddy water and the tragic part was that the paste and a towel. So I managed to get some of the ipud off and sit down to breakfast and coffee. The boys had started back to Mawab at 4. In the morning for a new winch pin, so all we could do was wait, and wait we did until nearly 11. From our window we could see the tall coconut trees, an orange tree, banana frees, a coffee tree, and of course the dense plantations of abaca. One of the boys climbed the tall coconut tree while we were there with a long bamboo barrel affair on his back and then high up in the tree we could see him tapping the tree for the juice out of which they make a wine called tu ba. The pigs are tethered under the trees with a rope through each ear. I did not see "the abaca stripping but hope to see that soon as It is a very lucrative industry here in the Islands and provides a lot of employment.

The walls of the bedrooms are built up about eight feet, so the birds fly In and the birds fly out. The bugs and spiders are legion and already I am covered with bites from Head to foot Fortunately we are up about 1000 .feet and have no mosquitoes, but all our drinking water has to be boiled .The bedrooms are really open air and at night the fire flies, flitter In and out and look like Small candles against the root ! . JUNGLB.EERIE •'-,.';;. Directly ln front of the house the river rushes madly by and directly up the other side of the bank Is the jungle and I really mean jungle. It is very dense, and the fog' at night settles down through the trees" and, it looks very eerie. There is absolutely nothing to see on all sides but jungle. -A day or so after I arrived we hiked up the trail a mile or so and the vines that are entwined in the trees makes lt look like a heavy curtain, The front porch is lined with Orchids hanging ln small basket-like affairs wrapped in cloth and they are very beautiful. It. js. very damp here and we sleep under blankets as the nights are cold, but the days I find hot and muggy. Our ironing is done with charcoal Irons 'and- we really look a little the worse for wear at times. At nights Mrs. Hinckley and I sit on the porch and watch the big bats flying through the jungle. The noises are very weird and we wonder'what every odd sound is. Tha natives ln this section are called Mansackas, and are a small people but I know little of their'origin or habits, only see' them daily going and coming with packs on their backs and their trusty bolo ln its wooden scabbard at their side, I hope to find more out about them before I leave, •' , ■' . ' Our meals consist mostly of canned goods as lt is impossible to bring in fresh meat, although when the road gets better and the time can be cut down it will be possible to bring in meat and other things. The other day one of the men at the mine killed a wild pig and.it was really very good. We have few, fresh*vegetabies but it is a problem and our mail comes and goes only when the truck goes to Mawab. I will" be'here for at least two months if I do not get jungle fever before that . At night when darkness settles' in I have so'often thought of a book I. read recently. called "The Naked and the Dead" .'that told of the jungle fighting and theboys trudg-. ing through the jungles and the fear they felt Looking up the'Valley and the dense jungle I can realize how terrifying it must have been for them in those desperate days. Lining the walk on the way to the office we have several papaya trees, tlje fruit is something like a melon and very delicious, but as usual the male tree does nothing but look beautiful and have flowers, while on one of the female trees we have counted as mahy as 100 papayas. The leeches abound and while I have not had occasion to run jnto any yet- this morning our small Boston Bull came in with two in his eyes, and as they will blind a dog we had a hectic few minutes. They cling tenaciously. • " I was slightly disappointed that I did not see more beautiful flowers aldng the way and more birds, but did see lots.of beautiful butterflies. PIONEERING The mine is looking good, I understand, and I hope it is a success for the sake of Mr. Hinckley and Mr. Kniazeff, who have worked hard and lived desperately to get it going,. This is really pioneering the hard way. When I see the road that has been built through the jungle it is almost unbelievable that these two men with a few natives ,hav'e accomplished so much. / Our crew and all the men employed have been very faithful and hnve worked hard. I have .never seen anyone work as hard as our little truck driver, whose name is Finally about 12 noon after a nice fnesu_s G"fi'' as.h.e did Mfir5t triP in. I am frankly enjoying every minute of the time and by nine at Distributors for Nelson and District Wood, Vallance Hdwre Co Ltd 593 Baker St. Phone 26 Thii advertisement is not published or displayed by the Liquor Control Board or by the Government of British Columbia. lunch, mostly canned goods, we started out again in the old faithful 6x6 and started out on the last 26 kilometers to the mine, which is a total distance of 105 kilometers from Davao. The road is really something, and at' places it goes right into the river. I would wonder I where we went from there, then down into the river and up the other side, and, this we did about four times. About 3 in the afternoon we arrived at the camp and my first thought was a shower and a rest, but was surprised to find that outside: of. numerous' bruises i felt wonderful. On the way up I was amused to see several signs of "Panaminas Incorporated, No Trespassing," and told them at the camp I thought it should read "Come All Ye Faithful" instead. At the camp(l was greeted by Mrs. Hinckley with whom I lived In Manila for a year, Mrs. Holt- ' man from a nearby plantation who was visiting. We three were the first white women to venture this far, so It was really quite an experience. Mrs. Hinckley has lived here alone and it is really very eerie and very, lonesome as now we are the only two.women in camp with the men about six kilometers away at the mine. We have a fair sized mine, office, an assay office, ahd a house which is hard to describe to do it justice. The front porch leads into a fairly big living room, then off this is a kitchen, then two bedrooms with connecting shower. The windows are huge openings, no screens and no' windows, and no night am ready to call it a day. We had our first official opening of Tagharus the Saturday I arrived, three women and two -men, but it was fun and Mr. Hinckley had brought in a radio so we,danced and enjoyed ourselves. They are rushing work at the mine and I feel sure it is going to be one of the best, because surely all the hard work, sweat-and energy that has been put into it to date cannot have been wasted, and also for the sake of the men who are venturing their capital so far away. Czechs Try to Blame British PRAGUE, March 15 (Reuters) — Police authorities today were inquiring into the conduct of three members of Czechoslovakia's hockey team, taken to a police station after an Incident in a Prague bar last night The .players were reported to have expressed discontent over the team's withdrawal from the World Amateur Hockey Championships now under way in London and to have "misbehaved."

He added, however, that Canadian composers are being held back by the fact that "you do not want us at the box office.' ' We are the most unpublished, -• unheard, unperformed and. unpaid in the world." "Misunderstanding of the contemporary ldion," Mr. Adaskin said, 'is the .perennial problem which faces composers." Why new expressions in music are shied away from by an audience is difficult to understand, he said. Miss Pentland, a native ot Winnipeg - who began "dabbling" " in composition at the age of 9, said She felt the greatest difficulty facing a contemporary composer was the gap between "the producer—the composer—and the consumer—the audience." ; Those Uttle. black dots on the composer's paper, sho said, have to be translated ln living sounds before the coiiipui ai oan become recognized.
