The; dramatic break of the day came with the reading by the' pros ecution of a brief letter written by the cardinal,' saying that if ho ever said* the government's charges against him were true; It would be because of "weakness of the flesh."

The firemen, originally do mandlng Increases ranging' between.. $33.60 and $60 per month, refused the City's Initial offer of a "slldlng-scale" $15 Increase. The' Department at a special meeting with Council members asked a flat increase of $9.50 plus the offered $15 cost-of-living bonus. City's offer of $16 was based on the cost-of-living bonus system, said' Mayor T. JH. Waters.. The amount would fluctuate with rises and decreases. In prices, changing with every three points. Rough estimate of worth was $1.25 a point. Firemen's Bargaining Committee, while agreeing with the pro-, poial as a "fair way to do It," felt that before such a system could be put Into effect "our wages should be at a point where It could "be used." The men did not feel their wages were high enough to use a sliding scale. Wage scale being studied by the City Is: ■ SA '.'

When ' the City' offered $15, It felt it was all it could afford, Alderman A. H. Allan said. In outlining the reasons for asking an increase, Peter Leslie, one pf a bargaining.committee of three, followed up the rise in cost of living in the past 10'years. He pointed out that In 1039 ."when the Department was paid $130, we 'were on a par with the living cost. Today, when cost of living is up almost 60 points and we should be receiving $204, we have lost con' siderable money." ;■„'■■/ A Department of 4th class rating, "we are the lowest paid in the Province.

' By'DEWITT MACKENZIE Associated Press Newa Analyst Moscow thus far has failed to intimidate small but sturdy Norway and keep her from considering the ideai of joining the projected North' Atlantic Alliance. ' In reply to pointed Russian inquiry, Norway has stated that she finds it necessary to'seek increased security through defensive cooperation. :'. Security from what? Well, the Oslo Government didn't say, but there's only one wolf pack running hi Europe today. ■ ' The United States and the other prospective members of the Alliance —Canada, Britain, France; Belgium, The Netherlands and Luxembourg- are pleased at Norway's diBplay of courage. And well they may be, for that rugged Scandinavian country is on important—perhaps vital—link in the anti - Communist defences of Western Europe. TAKE8 COURAGE It takes courage for a land of'a few more than 3,000,000 people to tell mighty Moscow where to head tn. This is particularly true since the two countries have a common frontier in the North, a fact to which Moscow has called Oslo's a, . tentibn. The Russian inquiry to Oslo asked whether Norway intended to Join the North Atlantic Alliance, and, if so, whether this would obligate her to grant bases to foreign Powers. Oslo replied that she was examining the possibilities of an Atlantio security arrangement but didn't intend to grant bases unless she was threatened with attack. i . Naturally that answer can't give much: satisfaction to Moscow. It seems obvious, that if-Norway Joins the Atlantic Alliance she will ere-: ate bases of her own which would Immediately be made available to her allies In- event of aggression.

By JAKE ATKINSON Interfering Father-in-Law May Be Worse Than Nagging Mother-iii-Law ,. • Mother-in-law trouble is a common complaint on tbe par.t of wives, -but- father-in-law "trouble- is something less frequently heard about. §t Within the past few days,. how- 'ever, two cases of the. latter have "been laid before me in letters from ';wives who find themselves, at a loss ?to know how to solve the problem. '". One, from a woman who has been married 20 years, says that these -years of married life "would have been wonderful ones if it wasn't for Sny father-in-law. He Jias caused arguments between my husband and me, due to the fact that he spoils -my four children, teaches them to lie and do things without my consent. The children are 3, 4, 8 and 16. lily husband loves his father so .much that he can't see where he is at fault." . The strain of- this situation has ■.been such that, some years ago, this '••wife suffered a nervous breakdown, .and now, in her middle age, the nervous condition has recurred. ■ "I have been thinking it over for some time," she ssys; "and have decided that the best thing to do is to put my children in a home where ■they csn be cared for while I am away recovering from my nervous condition. I thought that I should leave my husband, with his father. Through such an arrangement, .my children w_l learn to be.good and be brought up In the right manner. .-'• "Do you think I am right, or 'should I keep my family together and put up with everything Lhave in the past years?" BETTER SOLUTION I'A. S." as she signs herself, does hot say whether it is absolutely imperative that she be separated from ner children for a while and go away ibecause of" her health or whether she has just thought, that tip as a simple solution tb her prOb- len~. Perhaps there /might, bes.a possibility that If she and hei- husband- ■could come to;sdme.'amicable'-agree-; ment on the point about which there haa been -so Jinucli friction:be;-, -tween them for so long, a g'eat deil >bf her nervousne"., would disappears and she would '""' hei il> i ipable of carrying-on. .' -. , *' . ■■- That, if seems'In me, would br n i«r better solution if lt could bi brought about, than for her t»\break up'her family and .completely sen" arate herself from them even lew porarlly. I would;suggest either 'uf Iwo plans. The first would be that sbe try td tell her husband, without quarrels or arguments, just how she feels", and" ask him If he could help her get back her health by telling his father as diplomatically as possible to refrain from Interfering with'the children for a while. lithe father could be persuaded to do this even temporarily, he might gradually form the habit ot minding his own business. I assume from this woman's letter that her father-in- law lives with herself and her husband, which of course is very unfortunate. If this is true, and some other arrangement could be managed financially, then I think the husband should go even further and explain to his father that his wife is not well, and that the confusion of having soy many people In the house is bad for her, ana it Would be better if he lived elsewhere for a time until she gets back her health. Living independently also, might become a habit with the. father-in-law so that he would not be a problem in the home af all after a time. If, however, she feels that she will get nowhere talking the whole thing over with her husband, then I suggest that she get in touch with a family, welfare' service in her community, and discuss the matter with one of the sympathetic people there who are thoroughly familiar with this type* of problem. 8ECOND PLAN The second plan that I might suggest is that if there is any member of her family, or other relative/who could come and take care of her children in their own home while she goes away tor a little.rest, that might help. I think it would- be a mistake ;to put the - children- in, a home if any other 'arrangement can bt- worked our These are -on-i ilnpf, fm hei tn rnnsidei, and I think one of them mn hi In* ihe niiw c to hei diiU ctiJtK . 1 hopi she w'll writ mo hirthci, md lei rae know t.

By HERMAN N.-BIMDESEM, M.IV Newly Discovered L" rug Rem; /es Danger of Frostbite Amputation Until recently, deep and severe frostbite always carried with it the danger of amputation. Where freezing was extensive, only' the most timely treatment, plus a lot of good luck, could prevent gangrene or death of the tissue. This was due. not only to the damage to the blood vessels by the frostbite but also to the tendency of the blood to" clot in the damaged parts even after they had been thawed on), thui stopping circulation. Today, howevci, ,i recently-dis Deprived of Motherhood Pleading guilty to manslaughter, Mrs- Georgette Brucks, 7.1, mother i of four, has agreed to undergo a sterilization operation as the penalty for beating her ssven-months- old son to death, The young mother was granted six years probation by Superior Judge Thomas Ambrose In Los Angeles If .she agreed to place her unborn child and another boy up for adoption and from International News Service and Central Press Canadian, submit to surgery.-— Soundphotc- Covered drug called heparin hss given us a wonderfully successful method of dealing with such injuries. Dicoumarol might also be used. Heparin has the effect of slowing down the clotting of the blood; thus circulation to the affected part is, restored because tho blood flows more easily through the affected areas and gangrene is prevented.' 8TERILE PRECAUTIONS Treatment must be begun within 48 bOurs after, frostbite and be continued for from seven lo nine days if it is to be successful. It is also very important that during this time the affected part be kept at normal room temperature. The heparin Is given slowly by Injection into a vein once each.day for several days. Every twelve hours the Clotting time of the blood Is determined, and an effort is made to keep this: clotting time between 30 to 60 minutes Instead of the normal three to five minutes. Frostbitten tissues are extremely susceptible to infection; hence, the parts must be, kept dressed under sterile conditions with precautions much the same as those used in the treatment of burns. When the skin i3 blistered aqd areas of the skin are lost, dressings of a penicillin solution may be applied. In two patients with severe frostbite; treated In the Sway described, no tissues were lost except the nails.' ■ . . HUMAN GUINEA PIGS Experiments have been, carried out to, show the value of. the heparin treatment. . Human volunteers were exposed, for from 10, to 80 minutes, to dry ice on the skin.. The frostbitten areas, if the heparin was not used, became gangrenous. Immediate treatment with heparin, continued for six days, prevented any loss ot tissues, and even when treatment was delayed for 24 hours, it was almost as effective. It is important, therefore, that the tissues be kept at room temperature before the heparin treatment is started, and during the treatment, since keeping, the body either too varm or tab cold before the heparlr is Injected may cause even more damage to the affected parts than the frostbite did. Betty Hutton Likeh to Stick Td Famous Violent Screen Roles ... By BOB THOMAS HOLLYWOOD, Feb. 4 (AP)-It looks as though Betty Hutton will stick to violent screen roles that shot her to fame.

ASK GENERAL HIKE IF MOUNTAIN RATE RULED-Out , '■■ By JOHN LEBLANC Canadian Press Staff Writer OTTAWA, Feb. 4 (CP)—*he railways called on the Board of Transport Commissioners today to give them a compensating general freight-rate Increase if It should decide to remove the Rocky Mountain differential rate. . As the. Board concluded hearings on the British Columbia 'Government's application for removal of the rate, it heard these submissions: 1. The Canadian Pacific Railway asked that any elimination of the l^-times-normal mountain rate be accompanied by an immediate! two per. cent increase in freight-rates generally. -..- 2. The1- Canadian National Railways asked for* an increase corresponding to the loss of revenue, but did hot specify a percentage; 3. British Columbia's chief spokesman — Attorney-General -Gordon Wismer-called the C.P.R. proposal "absurd." 4>The railways joined- in asking that; if the B.C. application Is riot dismissed, it be deferred for consideration, with other rate inequalities in the general inquiry into tho freight-rate structure' which the Cabinet has instructed the Board to undertake; '• At the end of today's argument which completed -a long series of hearings that began last October, the Board took the issue under advisement Chief Commissioner M.

But .Leslie Harries, formerly of Montreal, has made it so. Today he holds an executive post in the London office' of a Canadian insurance company housed in what used1 to be Canadian military headquarters on Trafalgar Square. Yesterday he was one of the Royal Navy's intrepid frogmen, diving in the wake ot the invading Allies to defuse enemy mines, For this he Received the George Cross and Bar and other1 decorations. Specially, trained for this highly dangerous" work, the frogmen defused mine's by touch only; they; had no lamp to guide ithem in the'dark green depths; carried oxygen containers on their backs, and, were unattached- tb the vessels from which they jumped into the sea. ''It was nerve-racking all right," said the youthful, energetic Harries, just back from a trip to Canada.

In November of the same, year! he was. sentenced to10 years In prfciOn- iffitjer, the old Section 98 of the Crifflinal Cqcle. By 1935 he was out . of penitentiary^and up to his old tricks.

Full information ' as to how he secured naturalization never has been revealed; Even at this time he was actively engaged, according to the Royal Commission's report, • ip espionage; \ He needed naturalization then to get a passport to the United States, Cuba and Mexico. It is worthy of note he is believed to have been in Cuba and Mexico these, past few years. He was * interested also in getting passports for others, and $3000 was paid for a fake one to one Ignacy Witczak, a Soviet agent in the United States. It never. "has been proved exactly how this fake passport was obtained at Ottawa. Though Carr denies it, evidehce points tp his being trained in Conimu- , hist activities at the Lenin School in Mpsootf, prpbably in: 1929 and 1930. There fei reason,to belipve he was the • most important in the Communist hierarchy in Canada, Tim Buck .being -only the figurehead. He was one of the first, according to the Royal,Commission, to engage in the Ottawa' spy ring. He already was recruiting other agents before Col. Nl- cholai Zabotin, head of the ring, arrived in Canada iri 1943. Carr had been workihg with Sergei Koudriavtssev, First Secretary at the.Embassy, up to that time. ,'■" - -.

Nelson just forechecked, • backchecked, .and every kind of checked they could to: keep the Spokes disorganized; ;; The two Koehles, although they score few. goals, were outstanding as far as Nelson was concerned. although Ron,pickell was the best figure on the ice. The two red heads kept dogging their checks end held them down at the other Olid'Of the rink from Seaby almost all the tlmei- Whenever any Flyers would get loose with the plick, either one of the brothers would set after hint arid tie him up completely. Cy Rouse had a good chance In the second period, but Fritz Koehle saved Seaby the trouble of one of the sharpshooter's drives. '•' The way Plckell ployed, there was little winder that both the Allan Cup Edmonton Flyers and New Westminster were trying des-; "perately to sign him. He was absolutely sensational on countless tries by the Leafs.' It seems "■'. Ironic that he Is the only goalie who hasn't yet a shut-out, especially since he Is the best goalie In the loop, as well as having'the best club In front of him. In the matter of shut-outs, Jesse Seaby opened the door to the class -V- "r ",.- ■■ - - of whitewashes, which had before. Included Jimmy Houston, Billy Margoreeth and Jakle Nash, who got shut-outs in. that order. Strangely enovigh, Spokane has been blanked 3-0'by Trail, 2-0-by Kimberley and then 1-0 by Nelson, In that order. TraU is the only other tearii to be whitewashed,' being beaten 5-0 by NeBon- when Heuston was in goal. Picked is'definitely due for shutout soon. , ... :' Ail teams Rlay on the weekend, Trail playing at Kimberley Friday and Saturday, arid Nelson at Spokane Sunday and Monday.. If each series were split, it. would suit Nel son.allrlghj;. ';•,"■•." • Just before-thegame here Thursday night, Nelson's foremost kid sports promoter said the score' would be really low, but I didn't know whether tb' say anything against it or agree, I decided it would be better to keep my mouth shut arid let time tell the story. His reason was that almost invariably, If a team plays a garne the night after they rolled up a high score, they score hardly any "goals. This time "they didn't scbre any. Wednesday night, .the Flyers scored 10 goals against Trail, and no goals here. When Kimberley paid their last respects to Trail and Nelson, they jrolled eight goals past the Trail goalkeeper, but were held to one by the. Leafs, Nelson very seldom runs up a high account, so they needn't worry too much, Unless they start to Cash in one some of the "Impossible to Miss" ones, that they repeatedly get.

Trail's power looked weak and Nash in the Kimberley net was called on to make only two saves, while his team was short handed. Kimberley power also failed to show a moment later while Don Anderson was serving tiroe, ■ Trail broke Into the scoring first when Don Anderson got right In on Nash lb give the goalie no .chance, With Corrado serving time a Kimberley ganging attack back fired and Trail's Nicol sizzled one psftt Nash to put the Smokies two up. ,. One of the' biggest plle-ups of players in a net took place Just.be' fore the first period ended; about eight players piled on top of Mar goreeth but the Trail goalie had .the rubber completely under control , The Dynamiters came out really goal hungry in the middle session and hemmed the TraU club in for five minutes but Margoreeth held them all out. And it was the Smelter city who scored number three when Cavanagh .beat Nash. Kimberley got back Into the game In a real hurry when Sullivan slapped two, seconds apart, into the Trail net. Sullivan received- a nasty blip from Oave_ agh's,high stick, but it didn't slow the', clever .centre down,, because he came right back to beat the whole Trail club and tie up the game on a lovely solo effort .' 'v Early In the third the Dynamiters took their 'first lead ot the game; When Sullivan set up Jones and the big defenceman neatly beat filarg- oreeth. The homo crew went two up, when after a lovely bit ot stick handling, Calles'rlfled another Into the Trail net. Half .Way through* the final period, Hyrcluk combined with Johnson and It was Kimberley's turn to hold the three-goal lead. The game ended witb Kimberley on the short side of the man power- but the Smokes failed to capitalize.

Churchill tells bl. one Cabinet meeting Just before Dunkerque and the fall bf France at which he briefed his colleagues fully on the black situation, then casually remarked "we 'shall fight on" whatever happens.

Churchill says he Is sure he would have been hurled from office had he faltered at this time.

This exhibition, which Is touring the Dominion under the auspices of the National Gallery of Canada, was brought to the City by the Nelson Art Club through Its affiliation with the Western Art Circuit The pictures, which are mostly etchings, drypoints and lithographs, comprise the first official exhlbi-j tion of Swedish art ever to be seen in Canada.- ■'.■'■ ... y . ,, Nelson is fortunate'to be included ih the Itinerary of the Swedish exhibition;' Usually:'displays of this kind can only be seen in the large cities. ■ , - * There are a hundred or more entries in th? group but owing to the lack of space only 40 pictures are being shown in the library. v The remainder will be on view to the public in the Women's Institute Room Tuesday from 8 to 10 p.m. Modern Swedish graphic artists —etchers, lithographers, and so on have received their artistic nourishment from, the black-and-white artists ot England, unlike Swedish painters who show modern French influence. .-. ~ , "IN "REALISTIC STYLE'* The subject'matter of the Swedish Graphic Art exhibition falls , into three mahv classes: Landscapes, Interiors ahd* Still-Life,- and: Figures.

In most of the .landscapes, farmsteads under snow and,the delicate.tracery of bare, branches against the Winter sky have been rendered with sympathetic insight and technical competence. Of interest too,,are some fine renderings of buildings and streets, including views over, the snow-covered roofs of Stockholm and other/cities. A- number of Interiors show . gbOd arrangement and pleasing effects of light and shade. In the stllt-l|fe< section, drypoints offish ar?d dead game-birds have i been done with great fidelity. Of particular Interest are the drawings of human faces and fig- - u'rea. Varied In style, they all look what they, are—portraits of real people, full of life and character. It is evident that the artists who drew them have a sound knowledge, not only of anatomy' and physiognomy, but of character-analysis as well. In deference to'the known views of the Library Board on the type of picture considered unsuitable for display in the Library, several figure drawings of excellent workmanship have not been shown. Several abstract and "modernistic" pictures are on yiew, a reminder that even-the Far North Is influenced by this world-wide trend in art-1- ,' On the whole, this exhibition . reflects the sane outlook and love of nature of the Swedish people, and Is of a style and quality that will appeal to Canadian artists and laymen alike.

Comeau, he recalled, came out from St Malo, France, to participate in the founding'ot the first white settlement in Canada, at Port Royal, N.S., In 1604. There was no record of their early, growth, but his maternal, great-grandfather had kept a diary and it. was a good one, •. ' • ->'.'. This was. Franco!

His ship was waylaid off Newfoundland by the English, 17 men were killed and Portneuf; was a prisoner on Halifax's: Melville Island for. three years during that time Of war, ■ He finally escaped In a rowboat, went down the coast until hunger drove him ashore, and the first house he went to in Shelburne was 'owned by the head of the militia. He went back to Jail. But the English people 'took a shine to him and directed a petition to Halifax asking that he be allowed to live among them. Before it could get there a ship came from Halifax to take him and his companions back. Fortunately, said the new senator, Portneuf had; enough sense! • to smuggle a couple of bottles of rum aboard. A violent wind came.up that night and the ship couldn't sail Instead the prisoner got his captors drunk, jumped ashore, and walked all the way across. Nova Scotia to Join the Acadian French.
