QliASGOW, April 10. (AP) -
Prime Minister Clement Attiee
ripped into Russia today with a
declaration that "responsibility for
dividing the world rests squarely
. on the shoulders of the rulers of
the Kremlin."
The usuaUymild Prime Minister
picked bitter words for use in an
address at' a party rally in this
shipbuilding centre where Communists; are relatively strong.
: "Thfeife is no personal freedom in
Russia; there is the .alli jfervading
oppression o( -the polipe. There is
no freedom Sof 'election'. Only -the
■single list of the single pasrty is
allowed. There is ho freedom of
speech or even of thought."
Communists, he said, are "more
'reactionary than some of.the old
tyrannies wlnrh w< ,lmew  'is  Ills'
past."
In this'city. where'the "Hampden
roar" of ■ football's crowds has. become a synonym for 'vociferous
enthusiasms, the Prime "Minister
.nailed down his point this Way: ■
"Even 'the''footballers sriiust te
orthodox Maix Leninists. It would
be laughable d n were not sss
tragic."
Atske favf ■ims.tavwl >i>i»oval
to the Atlantic Pact, saying if is
, supported by "the vast majority .pf
xx the people of this country."
"' "The: only ..exceptions," in said,
"are the Communists and their
fellow travellers, and a 'few eccentrics whose hostility to*, the
United States blinds, 'them'".',to
reality."
He said Russian Use of the veto
ln the United Nations has stopped
all action "which was not completely in accord "with what the
Soviet Government wanted," sand
added: -
"If we cannot get an effective allln collective security, we muist get
' what we can."
"We should have v-loomed the
cooperation the Marshall Plan of
the countries of Easterns Europe,
for we have no wish to have a
divided world," he said. "The
responsibility for dividing the
world rests squarely on the
shoulders of the rulers of the
Kremlin.
"We do not give up hope of re
uniting the world, but It can only
bo done If the Communists give

that period.
It would not mean that Canada
wbuld halt entirely her imports of
U.S. coal and oil. But, he said, it
would mean that trade in these
products would achieve a balance
that would allow the country's
U.S. dollars to move into - other
phases of trade.
Washington, he indicated, is as
pleased at this prospect as is
Ottawa. Under present circumstances, Canada draws heavily upon
dollar receipts from other countries
to finance her purchases of U.S.

George Drew came home Saturday
night to accept the post of honorary
colonel in the outfit he served with
during the First World War—the
11th Field Regiment, Royal Csina-
dian Artillery.
The Progressive Conservative
leader drove to his hometown for a
mess dinner at Guelph Armouries
after delivering at Toronto what
may prove to have been the opening salvo of a Federal election
campaign in. Toronto where he
spoke before women of the party.
Mr. Drew made numerous mentions of the Impending Federal election and said the on)y issue at that
time would involve a simple choice
between bureaucracy and democracy.
He declared that only election of
the' Progressive Conservatives
would guarantee a return to the
free' Parliamentary . system under
which elected representatives will
govern Canada.;
The Liberal Government, he. said,
was abandoning every semblance ot
Liberalism and was daily getting
closed to the doctrines of Socialism.
Suggestions that the Progressive
Conservatives were "reactionary"
and "servants of financial interest.!"
were examples of- the adoption by
"so-called Liberals" of. the tactics
formerly used by tbe Socialist and
Communists, he added.

Fly Food to

ST. JOHN'S, April 10 (CP)-«he
spectre of starvation disappeared
from Southern Labrador today after mercy missions by JI.C.A.F. euid
private planes.
An R.CA.F. piano, parachuted
food to the village of St. Marys Bay
Saturday. This allayed fears that
many persons there, including expectant mothers and babies, would
starve to death. /
Earlier, a Newfoundland Airways
plane, piloted by Freeman Fleming
of# Charlottetown, flew from the
Northern tip of Newfoundland to
Labrador Friday with nearly half
a ton of food. '
KNOWN FOR WEEKS
Dr. Gordon Thomas of the Gren-
iell: mission .at St' Anthony, who
flew-with Fleming, reported conditions on the Labrador coast as "desperate" in at least three villages.
He finished a distress message to
Premier Smallwood with: "The
authorities knew about this weeks
ago but did nothing." .*..,'
Although the doctor did not simplify this point, it was understood
ha was referring to reports made
by Newfoundland Rangers during
the last month Indicating that food
was running low along the coast.
Dr. Thomas said the only solution
was to send a boat with supplies.

airline stewardesses think about in spare moments in the sky.
It could be "marry for love,' ' '
. United 'Air Lines reported Saturday they asked their young ladies
a Jot of questions about the perfect husband of the air age.
Let him be a homebody, said the girls.
Let us' "marry for love and not for money," said the girls.
They said the Irian they'd marry needs these traits: Understanding,
honesty, good disposition, thoughtfulness, dependability and generosity.
-It would be nice—but not necessary—said the girls if he had a
college education and a car.
Oh, and no moustaches, please, replied the girls.

busess at tM WJM fWM " tbe City

."During the past 10 years it has
taken great effort•. to keep the
wheels turning, end it has been
only through the splendid coopers'
tion of all concerned that they are
still in operation.
"We have now come to the point
where a considerable amount ol
track and trolley construction work
is required to protect the old cars
we are now operating,
* "The estimated cost to operate
two street ears during 1048 was
$47,000 and the number of passengers required per year, to balance this' figure is '783,333. During
the first nine months of 1148 our
passenger average' ot 47,128 per
month, a total ot 505,530 passengers
per year showing a less of $13,067
per year. The operating cost
estimated for 1949 is .$$W With
an additional $30,500 fpr track and
trolley repairs, a total of $88,043.
"Therefore it does npt seem feasible to do-the required work on' tiie
tracks and overhead equipment to
operate cars that are obsolete and
running at-a heavy loss when more
modern and economlo types of
transportation facilities are' available.
OUTGROWN STRsErr CARS
"Our city has outgrown its transportation system and during the
past seven years a great deal oi
information has been gained in
regard to the operation and maintenance eoBt on different typos of
vehicles for City1 transportation,
"It is not my intention to cat*,
any reflection against street rail'
wsySs Street cars are great vehicles
and essential ln large, thickly populated cities, but due to the vast improvement and flexibility of rubber
tired vehicles, many small cities,
both in Cariada and the United
States, are putting them in operation to avoid the heavy expenditure
wb'ioh would otherwise be required
for track repairs.
"I might mention that due to the
age of our street cars and the severs
grades whloh they operate over,
we will be compelled to enforce
the regulation of tha British Columbia street Railway Act, that the
carrying capacity ot a street car, in
addition tp the seating capacity, be
on a basis ot 50 per cent of the
seating capacity, making a regulation load of 57 passengers.

Tells Kimberley
P.T.I of Value
Of Report Card
. KIMBERLEY, B. C„ April 10-
A good crowd attended the monthly
Fi.: ent-Teachers meeting to hear j,
Lukas, Supervising Principal of
Kimberley Public Schools, speak on
the elementary school report card.
A short skit and an excellent film
were also enjoyed.
Discussing the new type of report
card Issued to pupils of grades 4, 5
and 8 last September, Mr. Lukas
stated that they gave .much better
and more accurate information than
did the old type cards. 6nly seven
points have to be marked against 20
on the old type, and the method, ot
marking is more easily, understood
by the parents,
Mr. Lukas also explained the
symbols, used on the Primary report
cards grades l, 2, and 3. "The child is
marked pn his ability to do a certain
task" he said, "ndt on a competitive
percentage as formerly."
Mr. Lukas also asked that parents
look carefully at the attendance record of their child to fee if the days
marked "absent" were really necessary: Urging, parents to visit the
schools to discuss any. of their children's problems with the teachsrs,
he empha.'ized that if the child's
work w88 unsatisfactory, October
and November were the months to
call on the teacher, not April or
May, when it was too late for any
constructive heip.      ,

India Wish Not Compatible With
Commonwealth Concept, Says Smuts
CAPETOWN, April KMReuters)
-Jan    Christian    Smuts,    former!
Prime Minister of South Africa, says
It would be far better to "do away'
with   the   British   Commonwealth
than to whittle it away until nothing but the word remained.
I The General, ln an interview Saturday, said India's claim to be an
Independent republic, not under the
British crown but ln some association with it, "violated every concept
of the Commonweals^."
There is no middle course between the Crown 'and a republic,
he added.
"If the Commonwealth concept Is
tampered with or destroyed and it
Ms still proposed to continue the
^Commonwealth system,,there would
have to be a new basis or asgreement
'between the.member states with a
x written constitution on the lines of
the League of Nations or the organization of the United Nations,"
Bmuts said.
"It ls assumed that neither India
nor any of the members of the Commonwealth would favor such a plan.
"What India appears to wish is,
"therefore, not compatible with the
•^Commonwealth    and    cannot   -be
"t&
achieved In terms of It."
If India chose to be an Independent republic outside the Commonwealth, there could,bs> only an external treaty if she still wished to
have, any relations with the Commonwealth, he continued.
. Great care should be taken not to
empty the concept of the Commonwealth of all substance and meaning
and not to whittle it away until nothing but the word remained, with
no real meaning or significance, the
former Prime Minister declared. It
would be far better to drop the
name altogether.
"But what a loss that would be;
for the Commonwealth is a precious
asset, the product of valuable experience in human association, a
birth of time which has made a
great difference to the worliL
"In the Commonwealth, a num
ber of nations, great and small, In
all parts of the world, are freely
associated In a little league of na>
tions which has survived.the con,
filets of the past, working, con'
suiting, understanding and help,
Ing each other.
"In war and peace the Commonwealth has played a beneficent part
in human affairs and it still remains
the bulwark of human advance—a
pointer to perhaps still greater development for man."
It was a concept of free human
cept of the King. That concept was
association around the original con-
the essence of it from which the
rest had followed.

Sweden's Experts
Form Brain Trust
To Assure Future
By THOMAS HARRIS
STOCKHOLM (Reuters)'-A brain
trust with experts from the government, the trade unions and industry
it to be-formed to help recapture
Sweden's dwindling prosperity.,
Prime Minister Tage Erlander, announcing this decision in the Swedish parllment, stated this brain trust
will devise means of stimulating exports.
Another of Its important functions
will be to Inform the public frankly
and clearly on Sweden's economic
difficulties so that both workers
and employers are ^encouraged to
increase production for export.
Mr. Erlander explained that the
gap between exports and imports
is narrowing, but greater efforts and
sacrifices will be necessary to cjose
It
The Socialist government Is, however, determined to make the axe
of austerity fall pvenly on all sections of the population, Prices will
continue to be strictly controlled—
although some firms .complain that
the small profit margin allowed
them makes it hadly worth while to
remain in business,;
Taxation, unpopular with all
classes, will be maintained at Its
present high'level.' Everything will
be done to prevent prices from rising and the purchasing power of
the crown falling to a level where
devaluation becomes inevitable.
Critics of the govenment, however
urge it to reduce the number of
civil servants, rationalize controls,
reduce taxation "which is sapping
initiative," and show more imagination in granting licences for the import of capital goods and raw materials necessary to the export industries.:'-. -
..The trade-unions and the.Salaried' Employers' Organization haye.
agreed' to the government's proposal that existing wage agreements
shallibe prolonged iri.1949 arid not
renegotiated as usual si the turri of
the year. Manual and office workers
have also -agreed and the Socialist
Cabinet will now tiy to ps-iui.ide
other classes ot wane earners is. accept the same sacrifice.
Industry has already had lo accept them because the; government
is restricting investments.
This applies particularly'to bulldr
Ing. Firms v.'anting to build new,
premises will have to make do with
the old in all but the most urgent
cases.- i -."'
There will be fewer new homes—
although there is now a black market In apartments. Only 43,000 new
flats will be built in 1949 compared
with 55,000 in 1948, which Itself was
a year of drastic housing shortage.
They say, too, that, the government is pursuing an unwise monetary policy and point to the recent
resignation of Alvar Booth, former
director of the Bank of Sweden,
after a disagreement with the cabinet on financial policy.

Hew Method
Of Forecasting
Cancer Found
By FRANK CAREY
WASHINGTON, April 10 (AP)—
Discovery of a possible method ot
forecasting cancdr ot the womb
from one to two years before it
develops was disclosed Saturday by
a* Canadian doctor.  '
Cancer of the womb ls one of the
most frequent of all malignancies,
It kills approximately 26,000 women annually ln.the United States
alone.
Dr. J, Ernest Ayre of Montreal's
Royal Victoria Hospital -and McGill University said his new.technique lias been successful in fore-
carting womb cancers in nine women.  ' ••■..'  ■ '.-. -:'■'
Ayre said that opens up the possibility of tracing the development
of such cancers in all victims and
attacking them at the earliest, and
most curable, stage.
The technique is based on Ayre'S
discovery of a new type of human
cell—one which he says ;he and his
colleagues believe to be a forerunner of an actual cancer cell. It
has a peculiar nucleus, or central
part, that makes it different from
both a normal cell and a cancer
cell.
The Canadian declared that the
cells—scraped from the opening ot
the wornls—had been detected ' ln
nine women who ultimately became cancerous in from one to two
years.
World's Writing
Cause of Concern
Says Geneva Body
to'NpON (CP) - Concern has
been expressed over the world's
handwriting and, at Geneva, action
against, the blotted scrawl has
begun.
An International Bureau of Ed-
cation report says one of the 46-
country organization's main 1948
accomplishments was the adoption
of a recommendation of the teaching of handwriting. Canada belongs
to the bureau.     :'.-.
Two other recommends tions
adopted, also .for presentation to
ministries of education throughout
the world, are for improvement of
education in "internaional understanding" and for greater use of
scientific psychology in schools.'
Stating that "the rhythm of modern life demands more and more
speed in-writng," the report says
current educational advances "suggest the possibility of methods progressively better adapted to the latent capacity of the child,"
, It, makes specific recommendations for the schoolroom, but- holds
out for individuality of style.
"Once ,the.,e{enns2i\!a1 of VfrlUng
have been mastered, & cursive writing combining quality: with speed
should be taught, though each child
should be allowed to develop his
individual handwriting. ;.s:
' "For children between 12 .and 16
years of age-r-when the Handwriting
of adolescents changes—it is desirable that corrective teaching should
be given, adapted as far as possible
to individual needs." ...■:■-:■■■.--
MEAN8 OF EXPRESSION
Writing,,'it says, "is not only on
education technique but also a
means of, expression arid an. art
which should combine a personal
style with the maximum elegance."
On international studies the report recommends that school life
"be so organized as to develop In the
pupils and students a sense of responsibility and social co-operation,
necessary- for better understanding
between the peoples, and that the
various forms of social life being
organized at different stages of
study should be such as to interest
young people in the problems ot
merit and it seems likely, therefore,
that the Swedish-' people' will rely
primarily on the Socialists remedy
for their present economic ills.

Beauty and the Budget
By ALICE ALDEN
Fashion that offers beauty and smartness for all Is very much
In and of the American way. Of course, It Is wonderful to boast a
hat by one .of the great designers, but most of us have to do more
than think about the budget. Happily there's no hardship when there
are lovely hats such as this In the budget bractiet. Walter K. Marks
uses pink bal I bunts, I straw for this hat, which surely belles Its modest
.price tag. A cluster of white violets riser from the green velvet band
and a mist of green mesh veiling lends softness to the silhouette.

Love ProMetns :
By JAN§ ATKINSON
Husband's Past Forgiven By Wife
Who Finds Reward in Happy Home
It is a very pleasant thing to haye
a letter come iri once in awhile that
tells a tale of happiness instead of
one 'of misery. It is particularly
heartening when a reader writes a
letter of encouragement to someone
who is disturbed about a problem,
that seems similar to one that reader
has happily solved.
A few weeks ago, a letter printed
In this column described the distress
of a young girl who had been told
by her finance about affairs he had
before knowing her. This news had
made her hesitate about marrying
him, and she wanted to know if
this past of his might be an indication that he would not make a good
husband.
' Now I have a letter which is in-
, tended to reassure this girl. It comes
from a young wife who says she has
been married four years, has "two
lovely children and a husband who
is so faithful I can never thank'the
Lord enough." - : •
Then ahe goes on to say: "The girl
who signed herself 'Confused' certainly had a right to be. I know how
aha feels. It happened to me." ■
"My husband perhapB was even
worse than this girl's man. He got
a girl in bis home town into trouble,
He was very wilUng to marry her,
but things worked out differently
and better for both. This was net
his only affair. He also told me ot
the others. The one just described,
however, came to my ears from bis
mother after we had been married.
"I too felt huft, but after all this
was in the past. Why, I -thought,
should it have any effect on our relationship? He respected me, and
was considerate and sincere, and I
have never been sorry I married
him. The girl who wrote to you wiU
probably never really forget- what
she knows ot this maris past I
never have, really, but I never
mention it. To her I say: Go ahead,
marry your young man if he possesses all the other good -qualities
you want in a husband,
"And one more thing, My husband came from another state, and
I never would have known of his
affairs if he, too, had not been hon'
est enough to tell" me.
, "Good luck to you, Confused, and
may you be the happiest of couples,"
This is a nice letter, end I am glad
the "Faithful Reader" who wrote
it was thoughtful enough to do so
I believe, with her, that under circumstances such as those the past
may be forgotten If the man sincerely wishes his future, and that Of the
girl be marries, to be happy,

The effect of diet on high' blood

Thjs diet suppUed about 2000 calories .or heat units daily, with a
very small' amount of fat and a
limited amount of'protein. In addition to the rice, some;.fruit was
permitted in tin' dies, and ihe .all
was limited.
This ls.iof course, a highly limited diet, and there are some who
hav.o'felt that lt might cause a ser-
lott's nutritional deficiency, even
as the blood.pressure was reduced.

This Duke-Unlverslty-orfglnated
diet was used: in "700 patients who

I'm speaking of the Caesar Salad,

Orgin ot the salad Is obscure.

At any rate, it has taken the classy
cafes by storm. It Is usually,-mixed
at the table with a grace exhibited
by Jules Munshln ns the head waiter
in "Easter Parade."
Actually, any fool can make a
Caesar. I do It often. Many husbands
make a ritual of whipping up the
salad, even those who can't boll an
egg without burning it. It brings
out the ham in a man.
I offer directions for the Caesar

.     MONDAY, JPRIL 11,1949
An Important Issue s
Td Nelson Taxpayers
The City of Nelson street railway^.
is an expensive luxury, though the
transportation it provides is far from
' luxurious. ,
In 1948, the City's transportation'
loss was $15,111. This year on«account
ol increased payroll the loss is estim- .
sted at $19,041. In addition to-this the
essential additional maintainence ex-
: perises to make the system safe to carry passengers, and to meet the Provincial Government regulations would be
. $35,000 capital expense.' This $35,000
would have to be raised ty a Money
By-Law and the City would still have
an antiquated patched-up transportation system.
In addition to this $35,000 tempor- '
ary, repair job the City very shortly
would.be faced with the necessity of a
heavy capital expenditure in. the purchase of new cars and renovation of
the trolley lines.
In the old days Nelson perhaps
could have taken a cash loss of $19,000
in its stride and could have financed
the $35,000 for repair of tracks and the
at present unknown cost o'f new cars
and renovation of the trolley line, But *
these days have gone, The profit on
Nelson's two profit-producing Public
Utilities in 1948 was $90,482 but against
this its loss-producing Public Utilities
pilid up a deficit of $38,149. Nelson's
overall profit last year therefore from
its Public Utilities was only $52,293.
Therefore Nelsoh literally cannot
afford to face a loss of $19,000, plus in-'
terest, plus sinking fund, on the heavy
capital investment which would be required to keep the street cars running.
There.is another feature in Nelson's
finances which deserves the serious
consideration of, the voters. Nelson's
net available borrowing .power on January 1 of this year was down to $277,-
000. Against Mud tho City has lis spend
between $70,01111 and'${00,000 to "com-"'
piste the '<Uh unit of the-power plant.'.
It also has Us lutiJi*! a new transmission
line between Bonnington and Nelson
to carry the power from ths 4tli unit.
Heavy expense is also involved iii
the sub-station "and distribution sys- ■
tern. In plain English the.City'of Ncl- .
son has neithci tbe cash noi tiie bor- .-
rowing power to enable it to complete
alll-this work without be'rig seriously;
cramped. -
The acceptance ot Ihe offer ol Interior Stages to install a bus service in
Nelson will  relieve -the- City. of'Jthe '
heavy load which" it is now carrying '
and the still heavier prospective load
which it face$ in the operation of a
street railway. Cities all over the Continent have been faced with a similar
situation. They have met it by, the inauguration of bus services which have
proved popular with the public because -•
in addition to the obvious saving to ihe '
taxpayers, buses give a fastei service
over a witter area t'.-sn i; po.-sible with
a street railway.
In the case cf Nelsen the bus service
for which we'are to vote tomorrow will
provide ft minimum of 100,000 miles
of transportation a year, compared to
the existing 60,000 miles given by the
strpet railway.  .
The, direct waste from a taxpayer's
viewpoint involved in the operation of
the street railway as compared to the
operation by Interior Stages works but
at 4,42 mills on the existing Nelson
City tax rate.
. Therefore the people of Nelson by
their votes tomorrow can effect a material saving in costs and,gain a modern
and efficient service.

Asks Fact-Find ing
Cbmmittee Questions
To the Editor:
Sir—The lensjth of our street railway la
approximately 3.81 miles. Our Provincial Government will .eventually become responsible
for 9/10 of a mile (what Mr. Affleck calls "the
lion's share) of this 3,81 miles. Nelson's taxpayers will still be responsible for the remainder, Doea he think the Government will
take over our streets (as is) when the trackage
is taken up and its space is temporarily filled
In with gravel? The Government wUl take (
over highways ln all small towns.
The taxpayera of Nelson will pay a share
of the total cost incurred.
Alderman Ritchie would "get busy" and
do away with the "unsightly steel rails" aa
soon as possible. Whenever it is done, the taxpayers will certainly pay the cost of restoring
2,91 miles and possibly the whole 3.81 miles of
the streets affected.
The bus franchise provides for higher
fares, Three tickets for a'quarter, against four
for a quarter aS at present.. If this higher rate
bad been operative in 1947, the revenue would
have been Increased by $11,730, and our street
railway system would have shown a profit of
$3633 instead of a loss of $8097.
Then its patrons would not have suffered
the odium of being "subsidized" by "the whole
population". They are taxpayers as well as
patrons of our street railway, and help to meet
any deficit Of its operation, Mr. Affleck should
remember, too, that "the whole population" ia
taxed to supply roads for those who own and
run private cars. We subsidize many projects
in Nelson, but if the whole population Is benefited, why grumble?
The proposed bus route is about 6,5 miles,
■ind approximately 20% of it Is over concrete
roads,'while 6,2 miles is asphalt, Why does Mr,
Affleck put so much emphasis on the life of
concrete roads?
I hope the new asphalt roads will last
longer than 10 years, but ls It unreasonable to ii.
; suppose they would lost very much longer, if
loaded.buses did not make 18,400 trips over"
them In each of 10 years, thus travelling 120,000
, miles per year?
t)-.   The SiwaniB Club was told by Mr. Affleck',
that the City purchased the street railway sys-
tem ln 1908 "at a cost of $10,000". I bave been ,
reliably Informed, at the City Hall, that it cost,,,,
Ihe la -paveii $16,000 A', a City service it will
be valued in the 1948 Financial Statement at
around $28,000. If It is scrapped, will the tax*-,?
payers be losers' If Mr. Affleck was not mis- -
-.quoted, then lira figures were very misleading,
as were some "answers to questions".
Clause 17 of Bylaw 1118 enables the bus
■ company to lease the City's car barns for three '
years at a rental of $1 per year, and there is .,
snothlng said about maintenance or repairs, Is'.
it only worth, $1 a year to the'company or to
-the City? The company takes possession on the:
signing of Ihe fi inchise.-, which means that our ;f
equipment viH have lo lie scrapped, sold, or
'put out "on a vacant lot. The car barns will be
a gift to thescompany, :at the expense of the
: taxpayers!.
If the Fact-Finding Committee Btlll functions, I hope they will answer the following
questions: Has our City Council evjer been
offered a number of street cars, said to be In a
good state of repair, and at a very reasonable
price?
If such an offer were received, why were
the taxpayers hot informed of it?
,  Tney oujht  to know, and there Ib still
lime before voting day for them to bo told.
The operating loss on our present system
can, be wiped out by: increasing thS fares. The
system can be supplemented by one gas bus
to serve on extended routes, and the taxpayers
would retain full control. The annual loss, that
causes such headaches, would be removed. It

Mrs. E. ,S. J„ Kimberley—Cen you tell me If
there is a finance corporation in either
Bast or West KoOtenay where loans can be
secured on household equipment or salary?
We ere unable to discover any company,
that deals in such small loans.
E. H,, Nelson—How can one-clean wallpaper
that has been soiled by smoke at the
•.   thimble whore a stovepipe joins the wall?
A method, recommended by a practical
painter and decorator is to, take a clean, soft
sponge, put a handful of new, dry, wheat bran
on It, then turn quickly agssjlnst wall (a little
is bound to be split In the process), and rub
the paper gently and carefully. Never use the
same bran twice. One really needs an assistant for thia. job to hold a tray, or wide pan,
beneath the sponge to catch any bran that falls
down. Another method.Is to rub gently with
•tale bread, renewing frequently.
H. P., Nelson—Please tell me how I can remove stains from an enamel bathtub. ' •
You do not say whether the Btalns are dua
to rust or other causes. A perfectly safe, arid
usually efficient cleanser, ls coal oil and salt.
Damp a soft cloth with the coal oil and sprln-

Press Comment
For all Its usual heartiness, laughter can
iitlll be an ambiguous expression. It most frequently is a spontaneous release of exuberance
and llght-heartedness touched off hy something innocuously ridiculous. But it can be a
cruel, cutting weapon employed with derision
; to injure its object. A smile, too, is not without
its double edge. While It can show pleasure
and subtle understanding, It may also be employed to demean. But in a chuckle there Is
little room for malice.

Freight Rales
By FORBES RHUDE
Canadian Press Business Editor
European countries which have
traditionally supplied the bulk of
the world's' shipping should continue to do so, says the current
Monthly Review of the Bank of Nova Scotia.        ,'■•■.-
They shduld be allowed to' earn
money that way, the letter adds,
from the general viewpoint of restoring world trade and eventually
removing currency ahd. other restrictions.
"This is especially true at this
9ritlcal time.for the world recovery
programs, as has been recognized by
European Recovesry Program officials in their efforts to remove the
provision that 50 per cent of the
recovery cargoes must be carried in-
United States ships...
"It is true that non-European
countries have, in varying degree,
real interests in matters ol national
shipping^     .
"The need Is to clarify the problem by defining these essential interests and by measuring them in
terms of shipping capacity and the
costs involved itt providing it.
"Uneconomic shipping policies increase the risk of a long period of
excess capacity in world shipping.
Though this would mean low rates
for ocean carriage, it involves the
prospect that these rates would be
maintained at public,expense by
various direct and indirect methods
of subsidy and control.
"For a country like Canada, with
a strong interest in the economical
carriage of her overseas trade and
concerned with selling her products
to countries whose ability to buy
depends in part on their shipping
income, the problem of deciding
what are essential trade routes for
her own ships is a difficult one,
"Whatever happens, it seems unlikely that Canada can continue to
compete on a large scale ln the
tramp services, and the development of her shipping will probably
continue to be in provision of specialized services over regular routes,
together with the carriage of some
major raw materials like bauxite
for the aluminum industry."
The review says that as more new
ships are completed the general
trend of freight rates is likely to
continue downward and the premium on efficient operation will
grow. •
Suspect Red Spies
In Disappearance
Of Auto Worker
DETROIT, April 10 (At>)-Blood,
stains in the room of a missing Russ
ian-born automobile worker led police to speculate on whether he was
the victim of a Communist spy ring.
Costan Covaluk, 48, a Ford employee, has been missing since
March 17. For-the last; 12 years he
has lived alone in a Detroit boarding house.
A routine inspection of his room
disclosed blood spots on the floor
and on articles of clothing. Police
also found $7,000 in .bonds.
"We didn't take much notice of
this disappearance at first," said
Detective Richard Miller. "But Investigation has turned up a number
of possibilities, including suicide,
foul play or some connection with
a Red spy ring." ""
, Covaluk's parents are stilly ln Russia. Friends said he had brooded because he was unable to send funds to
relatives; They also said he spent a
great deal of time reading Russian
papers. ' \
Ford Motor Company reported he
had taken several leaves of absence.
However, lt was not known where
he went at such times.
LIVELY HISTORY
OF HALIFAX BY
THOMAS RADDALL
By CHARLE8 BRUCE
Canadian Press Staff Writer
German failure to mine the approaches of Halifax Harbor remains
a mystery of the war,-says' Thomas
H. Raddall, the .Nova Scotia novel-'
ist
So close did the fringe of the sea-
war come to this nerve-centre of the
convoy 'system that.merchant ships
were attacked near the harbor, the
corvette Clayoquot was sunk, five
miles oft Sambo lightship on Christmas Eve 1844, and a submarine sank
the minesweeper Esquimau within
sight of it in April, 1845. But except
for one "catch" of several mines in
June, 1943,: the Canadian Navy's
sweep of the harbor approaches netted nothing but hard work for the
sweepers.      -   .   ''
These and many.ether aspects ol
the city's role in half a dozen Wars
are outlined in "Halifax, Warden ol
the North" (McClelland and Stewart), Raddall's account of the city's
200-year history as naval station,
garrison town, colonial and provincial capital. Anyone' wro, failed
to realize that for six: years Halifax
was "in the line"' may get a slight
shock from some of Raddall's casual
understatement: "They (the Germans) never attempted to sink the
harbor lightships—these were too
useful as seamarks for,their operations." '

(AP)—Dick Fowler is convinced
thpt an Injury* aometlmea can be a
blessing in disguise.
The 27-year-old Philadelphia
Athletics' pitcher believes that, a
sore arm last year made him a
.better hurler.
Opponents and teammates Who
have watched the Toronto-born
E righthander work thia Spring claim
his misfortune has made Fowler a
"great" moundsman. Both Manager
Connie Mack and, pitching coach
Earl Brucker expect him to win 10
games this year,     i -,'*,-". '
Fowler .won 15 gamea for the A's
In 1948 with a bursitus condition of
the right shoulder. The same" sort
of Injury has ended the career of
many-a pitcher.
The six-foot-four pitcher'had to
fly borne from training camp a year
ago with an excruciating pain In
his right shoulder. Dr. Illarlon Go-
" padze, team physician, , and Jim
Tadley,.trainer,'used.,to work-on
. Fowler's arm prior to a game in
Order that he.could pitch,.   '
How .'did all this make htm a
better pitcher!   ■;• ■..' ,'.; '.;'
. .The injury forced him to give Up
' Iris blazing fast ball. .Three or four
times in a game ho could rear, back
and let loose but mostly he had to
depend on control ahd slow stuff.
He became a master with the
change-up. pitch.
"After winning  three  straight,"
J'ild Fowle>, "laaked myself,. *ow
ong can this keep up.'" .
, It lasted long enough to give him
* 13-and-B record for the season,

By CLIVE FLEMING
In February, Art Chapman, general manager of the Buffalo Bisons,
of tho A.H.L., sent Rudy (Deacon)
Pilousiout to Sen Diego, to try to
tame down- tha players, since they
had become more night hawks, than
Sky. Hawks, .,  ,
At that time, the Sky: Hawks
were in fifth spot in tho Southern
Division of the P.C.L,, tho cellar.
From then on, the Buffalo owned
team climbed into a playoff berth,
through the semi-finals,, and the
final8 of that section, and now into
the league championship series,
That team: just wasn't supposed
to go anywhere, but at last report'!
heard, the series was deadlocked
one game apiece, with San Diego's
win a shutout score.

Deacon was in Nelson late ln
December with Johnny Walked, arid
after ho was sent to San Diego for
"a week'or ten days" he, was to
return through Nelson. He played
centre for the Nelson Maple 'Leafs
in the 1035-30 season, just after
"the house-that Pilous,built" the
Civic Centre, was constructed. The
Chief Scout sand.promotion man for
the Bisons also coached the: Nelson
girls Softball reps to the West Kootenay title.     '.-•':''-
Wild Willy Hunter, Saskatoon
Quaker proxy who said he'll have
a good club next year, ia almost
certain of having Nick Metz, who
played for the Toronto Maple Leafs
for 12 seasons, coaching hia team.:
Metz tried to' be released from
the Leafs at the' same' time as
Sweeney Schrinqr and Mel Hill,
both Regina Caps this season, but
although Schriner and Hill were
eventually reinstated, Smythe de,
elded to hold.onto Metz, hoping that
he'd change his mind. Because of
that, ha missed a year's activity.
Some more news is that Cy
Thomas, who. came to the Toronto
Maple Leafs in the deal along with
Max Bentley, and Eddie Cutts may
have already been released by
Smythe ..on the understanding that
they'll bo playing for Saskatoon
this season, Thomas, one . of ;Spo-

Ed Behson returned to Trail from

he had "the addresses of a couple

It seems strange that tho Spokesman Review isn't elaborating at (ill
on the fact that their Spokane

Lesson-Sermon Asks
Is Sin, Death Real?
"Are Sin, Disease, and Death
HealT was the subject .nl the Les-
soh^SeiSion in all Churches of
Christ   Scientist, on Sunday.
The Golden Text was: "Bless the
Lord, 0 my soul, and forget not aU
bis benefits: wbo forglveth all thine
iniquities; who healeth aU thy dis-
es; who redeemth thy Ufe from
destruction." (Psalms 103: 2-4.
The Lesson-Sermon Included the
following passage from the Bible:
"Behold, God exalteth by his power: who teacheth like him? Who
hath enjoined him his way? or whd
can say; .Thou, hast wrought n-
iqully?)' Job 88: 22, 23.
Among the selections from the
ChrlsUon Science textbook, i "Science and Health with. Key to. the
Scriptures'' by Mary Baker Eddy,,
was the following: "Are we irreverent towards sin, or imputing too
much power to God, when we ascribe to Him almighty Life and
Love? I deny His cooperation with
evil, because I (fcsire to have no
faith in evil or ln any power but
God, good."

point .lead   by  whipping  Crewe
