 Reds Reject U.N.
Reply in Advance
Alleged Shooting in Neutrality
Zone Now Termed as a "Murder"
By DON HUTH
MUNSAN, Korea, Aug. 22 (Wednesday) (AP) n~ The
Communists Tuesday rejected in advance the United Nations
finding on an alleged neutrality zone shooting and fired a
second complaint before the first was fully answered.
An Allied spokesman struck back at the stubborn Red
stand which threatened once njore to upset the faltering
Korean armistice talks. •
Resumption of full-scale war across Korea hung on the
outcome. Peiping radio hinted at such a grim prospect and
called   the   alleged   shooting  ~
"murder."
The Red Pyongyang Radio Tuesday night announced that the Communist top negotiator. Lt.-Gen.
Nam 11, was "not satisfied" with a
preliminary reply he had received
from the Allies on a shooting incident Sunday,
Vice-Admiral C. Turner Joy, the
chief U. N. negotiator, had informed Nam earlier that preliminary investigation "does not substantiate" the Communist charge
that Allied troops ambushed a Red
patrol leader inside the five-mile
neutrality zone.
Joy said: "I will reply fully to
you when I have received a complete report of the investigation."
lt was this message that Nam
brusquely turned down with a demand for "severe punishment of
the violators of the neutral zone
and a guarantee of the non-recurrence of such incidents "
The wording and phraseology
of Nam's message was similar to
the rebuke Gen. Matthew B.
Ridgway handed the Reds two
weeks ago.
The U. N. Commander was "not
•satisfied" then with the Red effort to minimize the presence of
Red combat troops at Kaesong In
full battle dress and carrying
mortars  and  machine-guns.
Nam's rejection was accompanied by loud North Korean and Red
Chinese propaganda outbursts
which called the Americans and
South Koreans "enemies of peace."
"treacherous," "ferocious" and "utterly shameless."
One Red truce delegate, Lt.-Gen.
Tung Hua, was quoted by the Red
Radio as saying:
"If we canjiot win peace through
negotiations, then we must win it
by continued struggle against aggression."
In a new complaint, Ihe Communists also charged that Allied
planes Monday bombed and destroyed a liaison jeep bearing white
flags, . -:.,---.   -,.,.
A fifth session bf the Communist
snd  U.  N.  sub-committees  failed
Tuesday to make any headway on
the stalled armistice talks.
A sixth session was scheduled
for 11 a.m. today (9 p.m. EDT Tuesday) at Kaesong.
The two-man sub-committees
poured over maps for two hours
and four minutes Tuesday. There
was no hint of progress on drawing a buffer zone across war-torn
Korea. The talks were wrapped In
strictest secrecy.
The latest Communist complaint
of neutrality zone violation drew
no immediate reply from Joy. He
returned to Korea from Tokyo
conferences with Ridgway.
However, a U. N. command release Tuesday, announcing (ho
fresh incident, called attention to
an Allied requirement that the
Reds give "prior notification of the
departure and proposed route of
travel" if their vehicles are to be
free from air attack.
A hint that there may be a
growing split between the North
Korean and Chinese negotiators
was advanced by Brig.-Gen. William P. Nuchols, U. N. spok-sman.
Nuchols told a Press confeernce
he believed the North Koreans
were getting some instructions
frcm the "Communist hierarchy"
while the Chinese receive their
guidance from Peiping, .the capital
of Red China. Nuchols indicated he
meant the Russian leaders in Moscow formed the "hierarchy" advising the North Koreans.
However, he defined the Communist attitude at the current
sub-committee sessions and at
earlier full-scale meetings as:
"Immune to military logic; obdurate In their politically-tainted
demands; Inscrutable In presenting them; adamant to any adjustment."
It was the sharpest criticism of
the Reds yet made by an official
Allied source since the cease-fire
talks started July 10.
Nuchols said there was no difference in the Communist attitude
at the sub-committee talks and in
the .earlier.full--se_aions.--Heft*aid

Communist attitude.

Mexican Port Awaits
Hurricane Due Today
TAMPICO, Mexico, Aug. 21 (AP)
—The Army took over all cars and
trucks here today in preparation for
a terrific hurricane whirling across
the Gulf of Mexico toward this oil
port and some of Mexico's richest
oil-fields.
Authorities estimated the number
of persons to be moved to the centre
of the cily on higher ground at
"thousands."
The storm is expected to hit this
city of 100.000 population tomorrow
before noon.
The centre of Tampico Is built on
a hill, but the outlying districts are
on low ground'subject to flooding.
News of the approach of the hurricane which swept across Jamaica
last week, taking 155 lives and causing damage estimated at £20,000,000,
caused wide-spread alarm.
Householders tied down their
roofs and reinforced windows and
doors.
Ships ln the port doubled their
lines and called back crew members
on shore. Small fishing craft, warned of the approaching storm by radio, streamed into port during the
day.
The port captain said all ships ln
the Tampico area are safe in port
and he forbade any to leave until
the big blow was over.
The hurricane, dubbed "Charlie"
by the Weather Bureau, was born
six days ago when it moved into the
Caribbean from the Atlantic.
It hit the Yucutan Peninsula of
Mexico yesterday. It lost force over
the sparsely-settled land but renewed its wallop when it started across
the Southwest part of the Gulf of
Mexico toward Tampico. At midday today its, winds were reported
up to 130 miles an hour. It was then
about 240 miles East of Tampico and
moving' about 12 miles an hour
in a direction between West and
Northwest.

Iran Presented
Ultimatum
/TEHRAN, Aug". 21 (AP)—Britain
gave Premier Mohammed Mossadegh an ultimatum tonight to
abandon his stonewall stand against
compromise in the Anglo-Iranian
oil dispute by noon tomorrow or
accept a breakdown of the negotiations.
(London dispatches said the British Government is believed to be
considering landing military forces
at Abadan, Iranian oil refining
centre, and thus risk a reaction from
Russia, Iran's Communist neighbor.
(Prime Minister Attlee hurried
from his country home and called a
Cabinet meeting attended by Air
Marshal Sir John Slessor, Chief of
Air Staff, and Sir William Fraser,
Chairman of the Anglo-Iranian Oil
Company.)
There was little hope ln any
quarter that Mossadegh would bow
to Britain and avert a collapse of
the 17-day-oId talks. He appeared
too tightly tied by his own and his
spokesman's vitriolic attacks on
Britain to risk political suicide by
compromise.
HARRIMAN QUIET
W. Averell Harriman, President
Truman's special envoy, who persuaded Britain to send a second
mission to Tehran.'had no comment
on the apparently imminent breakdown of his carefully nursed negotiations. He was known, however,
to have urged the Iranians to accept
the British proposition.
The talks, according- to British
spokesmen, were being wrecked on
-Mpssade,gh^,..stpny._repjtance,,to-any
form of British supervision or
management in the Oil fields and
refinery^
Richard Stokes, Britain's Lord
Privy Seal and chief negotiator,
brought the stagnant talks to a
head by a series of swift moves.
He announced that he had withdrawn his eight-point proposal
which would turn over all Iranian
assets of the British-owned Anglo-
Iranian Oil Company to the National Iranian Oil Company, the
company Mossadegh has set up
under his law of last March nationalization the industry and cancelling Britain's 60-year concession.
The proposal called for a 50-50 split
of profits with a British marketing
organization and a non-profit British managing organization under
A.I.O.C. to run the fields and refinery.
Later,   Stokes   announced  that
Mossadegh   had   already   turned
down  a second  one-point compromise offer to appoint a British
manager under A.I.O.C. direction
who would carry on day-to-day
operations.
He then said that he would return to London and abandon his
efforts If Mossadegh still refused
by tomorrow noon to 'accept the
latest bid.
He 8aid: he was voicing the unanimous opinion of British oil men
in Iran that they would not stay in
the country under Iranian management, or as.he phrased it, "under
impossible (yorklng and management conditions,1' ■
Under his proposals, Stokes said,
Iran would have .'realized three
times as much from her oil as she
did in. 1950 and under terms as
favorable as. those of any producing country..

STRIKE APPEARS NEAR
SALEM. Ore., Aug. 21 (AP) —
An end of the week-old Oregon
State Prison strike appeared imminent tonight as some 1200 convicts were given their first food
in five days.
Prison officials started feeding
the convicts after James H. Au-
dett, head of a prison grievance
committee abolished after . the
strike began, said he had been given assurance that 90 per cent of
the men were willing, to return to
work tomorrow.
The prisoners were fed 400 at a
time, receiving mush, toast, fruit,
coffee and bread. When they finished eating. Audett and the Rev.

trade in the fir_t half of 1950 snow
balled into a $340,000,000 deficit for
Canada in the first half of 1951, the
Bureau of Statistics reported today.
The Canadian trade deficit —-compared with surpluses in past years—
developed partly from these problems:
1. An upsurge in purchases from
the United Stales with no countering balance ip sales.
2. A weak, meandering trade with
Britain resulting in a sharp slump
in trade surpluses.
3. A continuing demand in Canada for raw materials and finished
goods partly to help Canada become
a more powerful industrial country.
Canada's total trade for the first
six months reached a record $3,865,-
000,000, up almost $1,000,000,000 from
$2,901,200,000 in the first • half of
1950.
Imports, mostly from the U.S.,
rose to an all-time high of $2,102,-
400,000, up almost $700,000,000 from
$1,453,100,000 In 1950. Exports did
not maintain the pace, climbing
only $300,000,000 to a post-war record of $1,762,600,000 from $1,448,-

$340 Million Deficit
For World Trade
OTTAWA, Aug. 21  (CP)  — An|   June exports to the U.S. increased
unusual $5,000,000 deficit in world to   $290,500,000   from    $179,800,000,
bringing the six-month total to $1,
126,900,000 from $916,900,000.
The resulting deficit rose to
$344,100,000, about -four times the
$87,600,000 deficit In 1950, but still
$144,000,000 below the $488,000,000
.unfavorable balance In 1947.
On the other hand, sale to Britain in June declined to $51,400,000
from $52;600,000 last year, bringing
the stownonth total to $254,200,000
from $237,100,000.
Imports from Britain, however,
were moderately higher at $39,900,-
000 against $37,100,000, increasing
the six-month total to $224,600,000
from $187,200,00.
The result was that Canada's usual surpluses in trade with Britain
which in 1047, for example, reached
$269,000,000 for the half year, dropped to a mere $29,600,000 in 1951.
In imports, there was a significant
increase in imports of American
iron and steel products which go
into the production of factories,
machine tools and in the development of Industry generally.
Imports of these items rose about
$190,000,000 in the half-year period
to $594,939,000 from $402,080,000.

Wheat Shortage
Matter of Urgency
OTTAWA, Aug. 21 (CP) — A
Commonwealth official said today
that Canada's transportation short-'
age becomes a matter of urgency in
view of the potential threat of war
in Europe.
A slowing-down in grain movements to Canada's traditional European markets, he said, could bring
chaos if the Communists decided to
launch a war in Europe this Fall.
The official, who asked not to be
identified, said he had been watching the shortage develop since last
Spring-Providing no war developed
it would not at the moment greatly
affect Canada's European wheat
customers, including Britain.
Britain had a "fairly good" stockpile of wheat and could get along
so long as there was a minimum"
movement of Canadian wheat overseas. But there could be a calamity
if a war suddenly broke out.

WINNIPEG, Aug. 21 (CP)—A Winnipeg auto dealer (Dominion
Motors Ltd.) advertised that customers could offer "anything" as a
trade-in on a new or used vehicle. They did. Two men offered their
wives. 4
That offer, made in fun, was declined but the dealer did accept
furniture, motor boats, radios, washing machines, a cream sepaiator,
linen, silverware and diamond rings.
"It gave a lot of people a car who never would have been able to
get together the straight cash down payment," said the dealer. "And it
gave sales a boost. I'm going to keep it going for the rest of the month,
at least."

VICTORIA, B.C.. Aug. 21 (CP)—
British Columbia Labor Relations
Board today was the subject of
sharp criticism in a B.C. Federation
of Labor (C.C.L.) submission at the
opening hearing on the Industrial
Conciliation and Arbitration Act,
conducted by the Legislature's Special Committee on Labor.
Power and authority of the Board
drew the strongest fire from George
Home, Vancouver, Secretary-Treasurer of the Federation, who presented the brief.
"In a letter the provincial secretary told me that full powers of
administration and interpretation of
the I.C. and A. Act are the responsibility of the Labor Relations
Board under the Act," he said. "It
should therefore be easy to understand the feeling or frustration that
is prevalent throughout our unions."
Mr. Home recommended that the
inquiry board rule that in future
the Labor Relations Board cease
attempting to interpret constitutions of trade unions, cease ruling
on jurisdiction of trade unions, that
hearings before the Board be open
to persons invited by either of the
contesting parties, and that whenever requested by contesting parties
the members issue reasons for judgment.
Prime purpose of the inquiry is
to hear suggestions for amendments to the Labor Act, and to!
make a report "at the next Legis-|
lature. On the Board are Arthur
Ash, Saanich M.L.A.; Allani McDonnell, Vancouver; J. D. McRae,
Prince Rupert; Arthur J. Turner,
Vancouver, and B. M. Mclntyre,
Powell River.
One recommendation urged that
instead of saying employees should
have the right to join unions for
which they were eligible, it should
read that they have the right to
apply for membership.
The Labor Relations Board has
taken the right to state whether or
not a worker can belong to a
certkin union, Mr. Home said.
1 Nowhere else in Canada or the
United States do we know of a
board assuming such sweeping
powers." He added:
"We strongly request that organizations be given tlie right to appeal
to the Minister of Labor against
decisions of the Board," Mr. Home
said.

I LONDON (CP) - T-he world's
first regularly scheduled helicopter passenger service has completed a year of successful operation on
a 145-mile run between Liverpool
and Cardiff, capital of Wales.
Passengers on this unique route,
which is operated 'by the British
European Airways, are impressed
by the novelty of flying between
700 and 1,100 feet above the countryside at a comfortable speed of
85 to 95 miles per hour.
The Sikorsky S-51's carry three
passengers who share an upholstered bench immediately behind the
pilot's seat. .
They easily follow the route from
I the captain's map and have an un-
1 limited field of vision, combining
some of the best features of motor-
| ing and flying.
Even animals in remote country
'districts have become used to the
! sight and sound of the strange
man-made birds whirring over
j their heads.
Although this Liverpool-Cardiff
service frequently flies at a level
of only a few hundred feet, sheep
and even notoriously shy horses
are observed grazing without so
much as an upward glance.
, The year-old line boasts of reliability as well as passenger pleasure and comfort..According to officials of the British European Airways, during two of the worst
months of flying weather, only two
out of 50 flights had to be cancelled due io weather conditions. Unlike regular aircraft, 'copters are
not equipped with blind flying.
Helicopter pioneering in commercial aviation is the main object
| o f this Liverpool-Cardiff run,
[which costs the passenger but five
! cents a mile. Since the Sikorsky is
a single-engined craft, the B.E.A.
for considerations of safety does
not fly it over built-un areas, although it is able to make a safe descent even in case of engine failure,
due to the" gradual decrease of the
rotor's revolutions.
The first year of operation has
amply proven the commercial
:'copter's steadiness in the air.-Flying at lower speeds than the fixed-
wing airliners, its rotor acts as a
i shock-absorber and the helicopter
is thus less subject to "bumping" in
j air-gusts than the conventional
I plane.
| Looking ahead, the British European Airways is shortly to inaugurate a 'copter service linking Bir-
Imingham with London's International Airport. This 86-mile run
j would make unnecessary a train
[journey for passengers starting
| abroad by air.
On a still wider scale, the next
major development planned by the
British is the introduction qf a
twin-engined rotor aircraft seating
a dozen, passengers. This would
carry travellers from city to city
over built-up areas with an extra
margin of safety. The B.E.A. is
already studying sites for Rotor-
stations in the heart of London and
other large cities of the United
Kingdom.
Passenger line officials and'aviation designers have set their sights
on a foreseeable multi-engined helicopter seating up to 30 passeng-,
ers; With the usual British caution/
[however, they say that this is looking ahead at least eight to 10 years.

Kootenay River
Flow Double
July Average'
Last Winter's exceptionally heavy
snow cover is keeping the Kootenay
River Summer flow at more than
double the normal flow for this
time of year.
, Figures released by the Water
Resources division of the Department of Hesources and Development show that at Wardner station
the July flow was 12 per cent
higher than the average flow for
the same month over the past 37
years.
Maximum daily discharge was
35,700 feet per second during July
as compared with the 37-year high
of 44,100 recorded in 1920 and the
lowest reading of 5000 in 1941, runoff statistics reveal.
, The Columbia River at Trail was
running only 25 per cent higher
for the same period, the report
shows. Differences in the flows,
however, is attributed to the larger
river bed which allows fewer fluctuations.
Average July discharge through
the Columbia is 159,000 feet per
second as compared to 12,000
through the Kootenay.

Apple Crop
Will Be Down .
The apple crop in Kootenay and
Arrow Laks wil be down this year,
according to revised tree fruits estimates contained in the latest Hor.
ticultural News Letter.
Only 54,000 boxes of apples are
expected this year, compared with
61,634 last year. This includes manufactured tonnage.
Crabapple and pear crop yield,
however, will be higher, An estimated 1000 boxes of crabapples are
looked for, 170 more than last year,
and 8000 boxes of pears compared
with 5302 in 1950:
Early plums are at their peak and
some early peaches are being picked. Rochesters should begin to move
within the week, and Clapp's Favorite pears will also come from early
sections in a week's time.
Where sufficient irrigation water
is available, other tree fruits are
sizing well. In a few orchards where
no water is available or where the
supply is extremely limited the
fruit is retarded in development.
The raspberry harvest is tapering

pending the arrival of the Forest
Branch suppression crew. By evening'everything was under control.
SLOCAN "CITY, B. C.,.Aug. 21—
Soya beans in the Slocan have an
important role to fill. A soya bean
factory, for manufacturing of soya
bean cakes, has been operating in
Slocan City for a number of years.
The cakes, considered a delicacjc
among the Chinese and Japanese,
ara produced by the "Slocan. Soya
Company" under the ownership' of
Heiziro Matsubayashi, who, with
the aid of his family, operates the
business. -*•
The cakes, of which there are
two kinds, go through a lengthy
process which turns themfrom the
humble soya beans into a special
food. To begin with, the beans must
be soaked.from 10 to 12 hour* after
which water is mixed into them
as they are ground.
The result is a substance similar
to a soft dough which is-put into
a large pot and boiled from five to
10. minutes until it rises. ,A small
portion of soya bean oil is mixed in,
causing the ingredients to go down.
The fire is immediately put out
and sodium silica added to separate the water from the- fats and coagulate the dough.
Following this the mixture is
placed in a cloth-lined box, which
has grooves cut in it the shape of
the cakes, and pressed to a suitable hardness. It is now ready to
be cut.
The final process of frying at
three different temperatures is
then completed and the cakes are
ready to eat. These constitute the
"Ageh" or fried soya bean cake.
There are 10 dozen to a box. Cakes
arc also made without frying and
are called simply soya bean cakes.
The waste, left when the dough is
strained, is given away as feed for

Cherry Shipments
Gain Three-Fold
Cherry , shipments this season
through Nelson sub-central of Associated Growers of B.C. will be
almost  triple last year's flow.
Quality on the whole was good,
Robert Foxall, manager, said Tuesday. Growers were fortunate in having dry weather which enabled
the crop to be taken off without
"brown rot" making an appearance.
Little Cherry disease is still present although it is not showing quite
as serious an effect thist year. The
market for cherries ruled strong
throughout the season.
Plums mostly  peach' plums  are
being received and shipped. The
demand for peach plums at the
moment is not too great owing to.
the fact that this variety has ripened
at almost the same time in the
Okanagan, Creson and Kootenay
district.
Nelson sub-central is also receiving some early apples for which
the local demand is good.
A few early, peaches have been
received frpm the Arrow Lakes and
it is expected that the heavier move
ment of these will start within Ihe
next week. Apricots were extreme-
ly scarce and-have all been shipped.

Final Run Before Superannuation
CRANBROOK, B.C., Aug. 21 —
Friends at sections all along the
railway line from Nelson to Cranbrook met the Eastbound passenger
train Saturday to extend congratulations and gven bouquets to the
engineer, Frank McDaniel making
His final run' before superannuation.
A crowd- of 50 Iriends, fellow
workers and officials greeted him
hy his wife and son.Oko. Together,
they often put out a; many as 100
dozen cakes in a day.
When asked as to the possibility
of producing the soya beans neces
sary for their industry, Oko Mat
subayashi replied,
"There is no profit in it, buying
them is much cheaper. The're is no
money in growing, and even those
in the Fraser Valley who raise the
beans are finding them unprofitable and are dropping out." However, the manufacture of the cakes
is profitable and the industry will
continue to flourish, he said.

For Washington
OLYMPIA, Aug. 21 (AP)—Governor Langlie issued an emergency
call to the Washington State Legislature today, directing it to convene
Friday to work out a solution to
the state's financial crisis.
State financial operations were

law authorizing state officials to
spend m6ney to run state government.
The state auditor has halted the
issuance of warrants to,pay state
bills and wages to state employees.
The door on Washington's cash
register was slammed shut by the
state supreme court with a ruling

Milk Rationing
Threatens B.C.
VANCOUVER,   Aug.   21   (CP)
Some dairy farmers are predicting
milk rationing in British' Columbia
for nexr Winter because of the severe drought.
Dairy farmers in the Fraser Valley and on Vancouver Island say
feed crops have failed and already
cattle in some areas are eating
hay that was intended for Winter
feed" supply.
Dairymen are reducing their
herds, slaughtering cattle six times
faster than they did last year.
Milk production for three Summer months this year was down 5.-
000,000 pouiids from that of the corresponding period last year.
- Unemployment Insurance Commission officers, returning from the
Saanich Peninsula report farmers
there are predicting the rationing
of milk.
"There is a very serious crisis,"
said Basil Gardom, spokesman for
independent producers. "It is a bad
story, no fooling."
"There will have to be rationing
next Winter unless we cah get powdered milk, which, is doubtful.
Joint Defence Underlines
Rare Military Alliance
The 1941 census showed there
were 518 males in Canada for every
482 females.    , .  .'
by, dtauAcc iDhssikh.
OTTAWA, Aug. ?1 (CP)—A. series
of visits from top American defence leaders is underlining one of
the. most remarkable military alliances in history: the alliance between Canada and the U. S.fbr the
joint defence of North America
and now of the free world.
Latest is today's visit by U. S.
Army Secretary Frank Pace and
Army Chief Gen. Joseph Lawton
(Lightning Joe) Collins.
Saturday, Defence Secretary
George Marshall will fly up from
Toronto for a day but mainly to
take it easy. Two weeks ago, Gen.
Omar Bradley, chairman of the
Joint Chiefs of Staff, was here for
talks and fishing.
Both Canadian and U. S, sources
here say there is not a single major
issue clouding military relations between the two countries although
there are plenty of minor headaches in working out the details of
broad decisions,
This harmony ls all the more remarkable because it is doubtful if
history has ever seen two countries
working in closer or more constant
cooperation.
The original alliance was forged
10 years ago, during the war, and
extended into peacetime. Its aim
was the joint defence of this continent.
ALLIANCE  REMAINS
In the last two years, a larger
concept—the joint defence of. the
North Atlantic area by, 12 nations
—has developed and both countries
are backing it heavily. But the original alliance remains.
Any enemy who attacks this continent might , well find himself
fighting Americans on or over Canadian soil and vice versa.
The plans are already laid for
Joint defence. Each country knows
broadly what is expected of it. Each
has men serving with the armed
forces of the other to-learn how
they do things.
This ^alliance has done some major works, not always without friction, in the last ■ five years. Examples:
A year ago the U. S. was irked
over Canada's small contribution in
Korea; Canada has since launched
a considerable twilight mobilization, become the second largest
contributor in Korea.
SOME HEADACHE8    -,
The absorption of Newfoundland
raised problems about three U. S.
military bases there. These have
been solved by compromise, with
neither country getting all it originally wanted.
Canada has been beefing about
relative scarcity of V. S. arms, orders here,. The U. S. has given the
green light for Canada to* go after
a lot more,
A joint radar network is being
built. Some U. S. stations, will be
built here.
, The Canadian Army is shifting to
U. S. arms. The U. S.-British split
over a rifle has seen Canada step
forward as a rather'candid referee
The  R.C.A.F.   has   adopted   two
types of U.S. planes. The U.S.
buying at least one Canadian type.
Even on a per capita basis, Can
ada's forces are considerably small
er than those of the U. S. but if that
is worrying. Washington there is
no sign of it.

Mangled Child
Fights for Life
VANCOUVER, Aug. 21 (CP) —
Twenty-months-old David Patterson,, still was fighting for his life
this afternoon after being struck
by a Pacific Great Eastern freight
train Monday.
The child escaped with a mangled
arm, the engine passing over him
as he crawled between the tracks,
but physicians- say his condition is
poor and they fear that the shock
and loss of blood may prove fatal.
He is the only son' of Mr, and
Mrs. Alex Patterson, whose home
adjoins the P.G.E. right-of-way, 68
miles Northeast of Vancouver.
The engineer said he saw the toddler crawling between the tracks
as he brought the train around a
sharp curve. He slammed on the
brakes, but the diesel engine and
half. of another passed over him
before the train could be stopped.
None of the wheels touched him.
David was flown to Vancouver
and is.in St. Paul's Hospitah
The plane, a charter service craft,
was diverted while flying over
Bowen Island from a routine flight
to Vancouver, and it Was one of
the fastest land and air rescues in
British Columbia history.
Jane Russell Vows to Keep Hems
At Present Length Despite Dior
Bv BOS THOMAS
HOLLYWOOD, Aug. 21  (AP)
Servicemen, you have a friend. Her
n'ame is Jane Russell.
It seems that the sentiment of
most red-blooded men, particularly
those to whom the availability of
feminine charms is limited, is dead
set against lowering the female
hemline. Lieut. Tom Hamrick, late
of Charleston, S.C.,- but now residing near the 38th Parallel, so'informed AP Columnist Hal Boyle.
The Lieutenant assailed the dictate of French Designer Christian
Dior, who has sent the skirts of his
new dresses lower than the value
of a nickel.
When I informed the- ample Miss
Russell of the Dior dive, she replied:
"Horrors!"
She thought the thing over and
again commented: *
"Horrors!" ■
When  she  recovered  from  the
shock, I asked her if she would follow the Dior decision.
NO ALTERATIONS
"Absolutely hot!" she replied.
"Down again, up again! Down
again! I'm through altering my
dresses. They're going to stay just
the way they are now. I'm not going
to change them for anybody."

Tropical Disease
Feared in Sask.
HAGUE, Sask., Aug. 21 (CP) -
Fear that a tropical disease from
Mexico is spreading in this area
was expressed today by a doctor
following a report that two more
babies have died in the Mennonite
settlement six miles East bf town.
i
The settlement Is the home of
hf. 62 Mennonites who left here
last May in a vain attempt to reach
Honduras. They were turned back
by Mexican authorities, afer reaching that country.
Dead are Peter Jansen, 14 months
son of Mr. and Jtrs. Peter Jansen,
and a nine-month-old son of the
Peter Friezen -family.
Neither of these families was on
the ill-fated trek to Honduras.
A Rosthern doctor said an investigation is under away. There were
nothing definite as to the cause of
the deaths, but he and his associates thought ,they were caused by
a Mexican tropical disease. Other
medical men are expected to visit
the area.
Two other babies who were on
the Mennonite trek died earlier this
month: Mary Penner, nine months
and Annie Friezen, 18 months.
The Mennonite trek by motor
caravan was led by Hev. Jacob
Guenthor. The group wished to set
up new homes in Honduras. Following refusal of Mexican authorities to allow them land passage
through that country, they went to
New Orleans where unsuccessful
attempts were made to get passage
by sea  or air.
Twenty-five of the Mennonites
returned home July 31. Mr. Guen-
ther and his family returned Aug.
14. Some of'the others are believed
to have settled with relatives in
Manitoba.

Feathered Dress
NORTH BATTLEFORD, SaBk.
(CP) - Chief Swimmer of the
Sweetgrass Indian Reserve says the
making of native Indian costumes
■Is a dying art among his people —
and he wants to see lt revived.
He has made a public request for
caribou, antelope and deer hides,
and lots of eagle feathers and
beads.
The chief will pay freight charges on any hides shipped to him. If
he gets enough, he says he will put
the women on his reserve to work
at tanning them and making them-
into coats, loggings and dresses.
Chief Swimmer says Indians
:hould be as proud of their native
dress aa are other citizen* of Canada. His first objective is to see
that his sons and grandchildren are
properly outfitted for ceremonial
occasions.
His Idea for reviving costume-
making started several weeks ago
when the chief and his head men
accepted Invitations from various
promoters of sports events to put
colorful Indian twilight powwows.  .
The chief found he could.rustle
up only five native costumes on his
reserve, and only two of them were
complete.
But the pay-off came after the
men donned the costumes,
The tribal children took one look

RESPECT LAW
' MONTREAL, Aug. 21 (CP)
There is a surprisingly low crime
rate among Montreal women and
girls, says Police Director J. Albert
Tanglois.
Women are occasionally picked
up for various types of offences
from driving without a licence to
theft with violence. Langlois saidi
more women were arrested for
"loitering while drunk"' than for
any other offence, but in the recorded cases most.frequent charges are
shoplifting, vagrancy, disturbance of
the peace and gambling and prostitution.
The police head said women are
good drivers, but many are arrested
for driving without a permit. Few
women are charged with more serious traffic offences, such as dan-

of composition by drinking whisky
and listening to phonograph records.

Teen-Age Gang Said
Raiding Picnics
CALGARY, Aug. 21 (CP)-Cal-
gary city police have launched an
investigation into reports that teenagers molested picknickers in the
Sandy Beach area, on the Elbow
River in Southwest Calgary, during the last few days.
Officers said today they have received no official complaint but at
least one member of the criminal
investigation department has been
told of a company picnic that was
"raided," Friday.
The matter was not reported to
police because "the company wished to avoid unpleasant publicity."
In Friday evening's assault, a
gang of 25 teen-agers is said to
have raided the end of a company !
outing and knocked two men unconscious.
No formal complaint has been
received today of teen-agers raiding a party some children were
having at the beach, confiscating
their food and fining them 10 cents
each before they would return hot
dogs and soft drinks.

Champagne Drunk
Princess' Birthday
on
BALMORAL, Scotland, Aug. 21
(CP) — Princess Margaret turned
21 today with celebrations that included a champagne picnic.
In Scotland, a picnic is the traditional and proper way to observe
birthdays for persons born iri the
picnic season.
But the champagne was -a special touch.
Hie picnic was held on the moors
of the Balmoral Castle estate where,
amid the heather and thistle, the
King and his guests were shooting
a lot of grouse.-
The shooting stopped as the vivacious Margaret arrived, with her
big sister Elizabeth and their mother, the queen. The king himself
took custody of the hampers.
Out came the champagne and, obviously happy apd proud of his
younger daughter, the king proposed a.toast to her. It was drunk,
among others, by the queen, Princess Elizabeth and her husband, the
Duke of Edinburgh.
The others included four of the
eligible young men who are Margaret's special friends—Lord Ogil-
vy, Lord Dorchester, the Earl of
Dalkeith and William (Billy) Wallace, polo-playing stepson of Herbert Agar, American author.
Sandwiches finished and champagne disposed of, Margaret returned to Balmoral Castle. There she
examined congratulatory mail and
telegrams, presided over a tea at
which the first of two birthday
cakes appeared and prepared for
what attendants called "a homey
private dinner" with about 25 guests
a lot of music by the Royal Pipers
and informal dancing.

of Commerce members aren't as
enthusiastic about formation of a
tourist school or clinic as they were
before talking with E. G. Rowebottom, deputy minister of trade
and industry.
While the basic idea, is sound, Mr.
Rowebottom told delegates in Nelson Sunday, Seattle and Victoria

The school was intended to take
In all employers and employees of
business relating to the tourist
industry.
Although the Jaycees spirits have
been dampened, they may conduct
a survey among employers and
employees to ascertain whether
they would be in favor of attending
a tourist school one night a week
for three weeks.
Mr. Rowebottom said that at the
last, tourist school session in Victoria, only 10 people turned out to
hear a speaker who had been imported for the occasion.
Members felt that if a Course
were held, it should be conducted
in early Spring, preferably March,
Mr. Rowebottom promised cooperation from his department, especially
in procuring speakers. He pointed
The formal ball was postponed
until Thursday. It was understood
the king felt a little too much
ceremony was surrounding the
birthday and-the country was
paying an excessive amount of
attention to It. He wanted to keep
the party a family affair.
Dress makers have worked for
six months on a white-and-gold
evening dress for Margaret.
From royalty and commoners,
gifts flowed to the princess.
Queen Mary was reported to have
sent a diamond tiara. Margaret's
parents gave her a pair of turquoise
bracelets and a/iother pearl for the
matched string started on her first
birthday. Later this week she will
get a green convertible coupe. The
Balmoral staff members chipped in
two shillings each to buy Margaret
an antique inlaid writing desk.
From the tenants at Sandringham
—the country house in Norfolk
where the royal family traditionally spends Christmas—came a. handbag "for a girl who goes to the!
races," Employees at Sandringham
House itself gave a silver cigaret
box.
The 21st birthday gives Margaret
the right to vote, but she probably'
never will cast a ballot because the
royal family keeps hands off political affairs. Instead of an allowance from her father,' she gets her
own income of £6000 a year. She
becomes qualified to sit on a council of state which would take over
sovereign duties if her father be

1948 Report Showed Volunteer
Fire Brigade Costly to Maintain
Nelson City Council Fire and Water
Committee and Fire Chief G. A. McDonald are, it would seem, quite a few
too many steps ahead of the citizens in
the march toward a changeover of the
City's permanent-staffed Fire Depart-
, ment to a partial volunteer setup. It is
time they broke step while the citizens
caught up, both in study of all. the ramifications of such a proposal and to
obtain an up-to-date picture of cost
factors.
The firefighting situation of the
community is far too vital for commi.-
tee room decision. It is a matter that
can have bearing on every citizen, every business and every pocketbook.
That being so; it stands that there
should be no decision until .every citizen has received all the facts, made his
own study of the proposal, and his own
decision—in short, the proposal is of
I such proportion that a decision by plebiscite is called for.
The plan to cut the staff of permanent firefighting experts ahd to train
| volunteers to supplement a reduced
. cre-vjr comes at a time when Nelson is
' growing in a manner that makes expansion of its City limits only a matter
of time. It comes at a time when by
civil defence standards the situation
could become emergent literally overnight. Under these conditions the training of volunteer firefighters would be
an act of wisdom, but as additions, to
the present staff, not as replacement.
Nelson has spent 12 years building
and equipping a Fire' Department that
has earned for the City an insurance
rate that on dwellings is only six cents
'per hundred higher than that of Vancouver; six cents lower than that of
§ Kamloops and Kelowna, and 13 cents
lower than Penticton and Trail. To
discard, even in partial manner, any
of this 12-year task is a move not to be
undertaken without a thorough study
—and with all the facts, pro and con,
laid before the public.
The Fire and Water Committee
bases its claim on a $12,000 yearly sav-
. ing for the partial volunteer system on
a survey of such systems in Kamloops,
Vernon, Kelowna, Penticton and Trail.
The fact that any savings at all is possible is a startling departure from results of a similar survey in 1948. At
that time it was reported that a partial
volunteer system with its additional
expenses for equipment, hall- accommodation, standby pay, drill pay, fire
call pay, Compensation Board payments and extra drill costs would be
$22,452 as against $14,324 for the permanent staff.     , -
That survey was based on the assumption that Nelson's fire insurance
rating with a partial volunteer system
would drop from fourth to fifth class,
and that 38 volunteers would be required. Now, it is said the costs would
be less, Nelson's fourth class insurance-
rating would be unaffected, and onty
25 volunteers would be needed. What
tive system that was adjudged in our
Chief's own 1948 words as "not successful due in part to volunteers not
being under the same discipline, and
at fires causing considerable more
damage due to water and other
causes."
A $12,000 yearly savings sounds
good—though that amount could be
wiped out in a single mishandled fire.
But let's be sure it would be a cash
saving, not just a figure on paper.
A Raffle Permit
System?
(The Kelowna Courier)
Surely the past few weeks must have Indicated tot Hon. Gordon Wismer, Provincial
Attorney General, that there is something radically wrong with the present Provincial legislation regarding raffles and the policy of his
Department in this matter. He and his colleagues must realize that the present legislation and policy must lead to continual headaches and irritations.
Tho present policy would seem to be one
of taking no action until a complaint is laid,
and then the Department is placed in the invidious position of laying charges against one
organization and not against another. This
system can not be satisfactory to the Department, ahd it ls far from satisfactory to the
general public at large.
The truth of the whole matter is that the
public ls no,t behind the raffle laws. The average person on the. street wants to gamble,
and, whether or not it is within the law, he
will gamble. The Government recognizes this
in permitting legalized gambling on horseracing,
If we admit that anti-fambllng legislation
—like prohibition—is not enforceable because
the public is not behind it, then the approach
to the problem should be one of protection
for the public, to eliminate the crooked
schemes, the shysters and others who are
happy to take advantage of a public weakness.
In the case of raffles this, it would seem,
could be done quite easily through a permit
system. If any organization had plans for running a raffle for a legitimate charitable or
civic purpose, lt might place its plans before
the Attorney General's Department. If approval were given, a permit would be issued and
the local police in the organization's area'be
so adviBed. The issuance of a permit would be
tantamount to eliminating the danger of prosecution, providing, of course, the raffles were
run according to the terms of the permit.-
This method, of course, would mean that
the Attorney General's Department would
have to pass on all proposed raffles. So what?
It should not be too difficult for the legal Department to come to a decision whether or not
this or that proposed raffle comes within the
intent of the law and is deserving of a permit.
Such a practice could eliminate all the
shyster raffles or those promoted for the self-
interest of some individual. If all—and that
word "all" is emphasized—raffles were first
scrutinized, the public could have confidence
when purchasing tickets. But- equally important, organizations which are honestly attempting to perform a charitable or community
service would have their position clarified
and would be able to proceed without the .
constant' threat of prosecution hanging over
their heads.
The idea is not entirely new. During the
war a somewhat similar scheme worked successfully under the War Charities Act when
all fund-raising endeavors for charitable purposes had not only to obtain a permit but were
compelled to furnish a detailed and audited
statement of the activity upon its completion.
The scheme worked well as far as the legitimate endeavors were concerned; it worked
well, too, but in a reverse manner, as far' as
the shady schemes were concerned.

The approximate difference being $30,000 to the citizens.
To have eight men on the staff of
the . Nelson Fire Department it
would be necessary td lay off six
men. This would leave the Department with two men and sometimes
one man on shift, caused by vacations, sickness, etc, and to conform
to the 48-hour week as set out by
the Legislature.
On the basis of Jumping to fifth
class rating, we would require 38
volunteer men to fill in.
It must be taken into account that
the work done about the premises
of the Fire Hall, such as building
ladders, housekeeping, painting and
other such word as we have done,
such as taking the portion' of our
tower, which was dry rot, the doors,
etc., and the repair to apparatus,
would have to be taken care of by
outsiders on contract, with quite
considerable increase in operating
cost,
Compare: Two doors installed by
Nelson Fire Department at cost of
$628. Two doors, similar to Nelson,
installed in Trail Hall, $2000.
It has been a part of my expedience when first In Nelson to work
with volunteers. It was not successful, due ln part to volunteers not
being under the same discipline,
and at fires causing considerable
more damage to to water and other
causes. .
It would be necessary to install
accommodation for eight men to
sleep in the Hall on the night shift;
that is, to serve from 6 at night to 8
in the morning, and at all times to
respond from their various places of
business during a call.

Red Propaganda
Fails in Germany
FRANKFURT, Germany, Aug. 21
(AP) — Communism's big propaganda drive has flopped in West
Germany, United States High Commissioner John J, McCloy-said today.

assault last Spring, McCloy said in
his quarterly report to the State
Department. They tried to scare
West Germans away from joinlngJ,.

SAARBRUECKEN, Aug. 21 (AP)
■The Saar is one West European
area only £00 miles from the Iron
Curtain with no army, no plan for
an army and as yet no part in Western defence. -,
Supported by Britain and the
United States, France has detached
the rich Saar coal basin, from Germany and set it up as a partly independent country. Under its constitution foreign' affairs and defence
are in the hands of France.
Prime Mlnslter Johanens Hoffman expects that sooner or later
France will ask this country of
nearly 1,000,000 for a contribution
to rearmament.
"Of course, with all Europe rno-
blllzlng for defence," he said in an
interview, "we can't hope to remain an exception."
Saarlanders who follow world
affairs know that their next-door
neighbors, the Luxemourgers are
already raising a division from a
population only one-third as great
as. theirs. But so far the military
question has not come up ln the
Saar.
Chief of Police Guy Lackmann, a
major in the French Army of the
Second World War, thinks his country could raise about 35,000 men.
Many observers, however, feel
the Saar's coal mines and steel
mills could make a greater contribution to Western defence than its
potential soldiers. Prime Minister
Hoffman Is one of these, He is turning over in his mind the Idea that
drafting labor would be more effective.
Forming military . units in the
Saar presents a ticklish political
problem. Saarlanders are Germans.
Many, including several Generals,
served ln the German Army in the
las't war. Their training and military loyalties are German.    .
But the Saar ' Government ls
olosely tied to France. It recently

Newfoundland's traditional fish-
forest-mineral economy is being
bolstered by a string of manufacturing projects as the industrial development program of Premier Joseph Smallwood's government gathers speed.
Backing private enterprise with
financial aid and guarantees, the
government announced in rapld^j
fire sequence this Summer a group
of industries ranging from leather
crafts to heavy machinery.
European capital figures heavily
in the Province's industrial expansion. Many of the contacts were
made by Dr. Alfred A. Valdmanis,
former Minister of Finance, Trade
and Industry in Latvia, who is now
Newfoundland's Director General
of Economic Development.  ■
Of the group of factories to be
centred around St. John's on the
East coast Avalon Peninsula, biggest will be a $5,000,000 Industrial
machinery and machine tool plant
to employ 500 men when It swings
into the first stages of production
next year.
Also starting operations in 1051
will be a three-phase textile plant.
Its 850 workers will process raw
cotton and wood pulp and weave it

Labor Shortage
In Alberta
CALGARY, Aug. 21 (CP) — A
critical shortage of farm labor to
harvest Alberta's bumper grain
crop was predicted today by the
Unemployment Insurance Commission in Calgary.
A fast-ripening crop and the possibility of frost makes necessary a
large labor force to harvest the
grain as quickly as possible.
Officials here said that 1200 Eastern Canada workers have been requested by Alberta, but there is
little hope anywhere near that
number can be obtained.
Into finished cloth. Most of the output of its looms will be manufactured int ogarments in the plant's
fabricating mill.      .'
Swiss, French and United States
capital combined for this project.
Their $2,000,000 outlay will be
matched by the Government on the
basis of a loan repayable for 10
years.
With Canada Importing $120,000,-
000 in textiles last year, the operators hope to find one of their main
markets right in the Dominion.
, Another 700 to 1000 workers will
be employed ln leather craft and
fur-dyeing plants, an da tannery at
the Conception Bay Town of Car-
bonear.
The Carbonear plant's designed
to use modern European techniques
in the manufacture of such raw materials as fish skins, hides from domestic animals and even moose
and caribou skins.
About 200 Europeans will bring
their specialized skills for the fur,
machine and textile projects. In
turn, a score or more Newfoundlanders will be sent to Europe to
study the same techniques,
A cement mill and two gypsum
plans are now nearing completion

Canadian Pharmaceutical Association say* the Association will continue to urge Ottawa to. allow income-tax exemption on all prescription medicines.

75 Attend
Ernie Browns
Golf Clinic
Golf is an easy gam;e if played
correctly, a difficult game if played
incorrectly, Vancouver pro Ernie
Brown told an enthusiastic group,
of local shotsmiths here Tuesday.
The 38-year-old Quilchena club
tutor stopped off here on his way to
the B.C. Open tourney at Trail this
weekend, spending four hours in individual instruction on the Nelson
course and conducting an hour-long
clinic before more than 75 club
members.
Correcting faults and giving tips
is old stuff for Ernie. He's been
doing it for 20 years, becoming a
club pro at the age of 18 and thus
restricting himself from any amateur competition since then.
This year his swing and stance
tips have paid off for the baseball-
ing Vancouver Capilanos. In the
throes of a batting slump a few
, weeks ago, Cap players came to Ernie for instruction, got it and have
since pulled out of the slump to remain in the thick of the Western
International League pennant race.
In tournament play Ernie is usually close to the top, finishing fifth in
the B.C. Open last year behind winner Stan Leonard and runner-up
Chuck Congdon.
This year he won the Malispena
Open at Powell River and should
be right in the thick of the Open
race again this year. He's quite fa-j
miliar with the Trail course, having
played in the Rossland-Trail Open
in each of the past four years and
finishing near the top every time.
He likes the Nelson course and
is looking forward to another visit
again nex'. year.

Feller Blanks Nats
For Twentieth Victory
By The Canadian Press
Bob Feller won his 20th of the season for Cleveland
Indians Tuesday night, dumping Washington Nationals to
their 10th straight defeat, a 6-0 shutout. The win preserved
Cleveland's one-game margin over New York Yankees.
Feller gave only six hits and held the upper hand .all
the way as he rejoined the select 20-game winners after an
absence of three seasons. It was the sixth time in his 13 campaigns with league-leading Cleveland that he had won 20 or
more—a feat passed by only five other hurlers in American
League history: Cy Young, Walter Johnson, Lefty Grove,
Eddie Plank and Wes Ferrell.
So far this season no" other major.league chucker has
ivon more than 17.
The shutout was Feller's third
this year. He has lost five.
By the end of the third inning
the Indians ha'd given Feller a 5-0
lead, which'he protected by retiring the Nats 1-2-3 in the fourth,

NEW YORK, Aug. 21 (AP) —
Major League club owners whittled
the list of candidates for Commissioner of baseball to five today and
said they hoped to pick their man
at a joint meeting in Chicago Sept.
20.
"Every one of the five men has
told us he is available," said Del
Webb, co-owner of the New York
Yankees and chairman of the group
of owners who met in an all day
screening session at the Waldorf
Astoria.
He declined to identify any of
the remaining candidates, but it is
believed Warren Giles, president of
the Cincinnati Reds, and Gen. Maxwell D. Taylor, former superintendent of West Point, are high on the
list. .
Asked if he expected a successor
to A. B. (Happy) Chandler to be
named at the Chicago meeting,
Webb, spokesman for the club own
ers said: "That's our purpose."
A Joint meeting, requiring a 30-
day notice, is necessary for formal action on a new commissioner. .
•     "This should be if,'! Webb added.   "Our  other   meetings   have
been  exploratory strictly.     This
one should get the Job done—at
least we all Rope so."
Generals Dwight Eisenhower and
Douglas   MacArthur  are   believed
among those who asked that they
not   be   considered.   Former   postmaster   general,   Jim   Farley   and
George Trautman, president of the
minor leagues, are also out of the
picture,' according   to   information
received by the Associated Press.
In the original list and'possibly
still in the running are Ford Frick,
president of the National League;
Gen. Clifton B. Cates, Marine Corps
Commandant,   and   Gen.   Hoyt   S.

CHICAGO, Aug. 21 (AP) — The
American League today banned the
playing midgets.
Will Harridge, president of the
league, ruled that St. Louis Browns
could not use the three-foot, seven
inch Eddie Gaedel in future games.
The 50-pound mite was inserted
into the Browns' lineup, as a "pinch
batter" against Detroit Tigers at St.
Louis last Sunday. Harridge said he
did not approve Gaedel's contract
for the best-interests of baseball.
In St. Louis, owner Bill Veeck
of the Browns said he was "grieved", by the ruling b_ut he would not
protest,
Added Veeck: "I assume they feelj
that Gaedel provided unfair competition.
I presume^ 'bat ball clubs tried
to ,' win the best way - they could
provided they stayed within the
rules. There are no rules on height
and weight."
Veeck concluded that Gaedel's
professional baseball career was
short-lived but that the midget will
not soon be forgotten.
In his appeaAnce, Gaedel, 26, was
given a'base .on balls as the first
batter in the first inning for the
Browns. The midget was replaced
on the base lines by Jim Delsing as
a pinch runner. Tigers Won 6-2.

There were suggestions, however,

rather than man by man.

their 15-round scrap gets
under way in Madison Square
Garden.'
When the fight was first made
Maxim was installed as a big favorite. The hard-hitting but awkward
Murphy figured to be a cinch for
the clever champion. But that was
before the tall Clevelander absorbed a thorough shellacking from
Ezzard Charles last May.
This is Joey's first outing since
and he hasn't showed much improvement over his Chicago form.
He'll need all his elusiveness to
evade the bull-like rushes of the
free-swinging San Diego sailor who
has knocked out 55 of his 65 opponents.
10,000 EXPECTED
Although the bout shapes up as a
natural with the boxer meeting the
puncher, only about I0,0Qfl fans are
expected to pay to see the gladiators
ill the flesh.   ..
One reason for the probable']
small gathering is that the fight will
be broadcast and telecast. Another
is the fanfare over Randy Turpin,
British holder of the middleweight
title who meets Sugar Ray Robinson in a return bout here Sept. 12.
Turpin arrived only yesterday but
there has been enough spontaneous
chatter about the coming return
fray* that it has completely overshadowed the light heavy contest.
Maxim won the crown .by knocking out England's Freddie Mills in
London on Jan. 24, 1950. He's put
the crown jewels in a vault since
then despite numerous threats by
the various boxing commissions to
declare the title vacant if he failed
to defend it within a given period
of time.
Thus Maxim may lose his title ln
his first defence just as welterweight Johnny Bratton and Robinson did this year. Lightweight Ike
Williams, middleweight Jake La
Motta and heavyweight Charles
were the others to be dethroned
in '51,
Lack of action may prove to be
disastrous to Maxim. He has had
only two fights this year. He
•topped Hubert Hood in three
heats In January and-was beaten
by Charles,
Murphy, on the other hand, has
been as active as a windmill in a
gale. The socking southpaw has
fought ten times,.winning eight by
kayos. He dropped a ten rounder to
Harry Matthews and lost on a foul
to Joe Rindone. He stopped Rin-
doneun five in a return.
He's confident about adding
Maxim to his list.
"I'm going to knock him out
within seven rounds with a- left
hook to the body," said Murphy.

Judge Recommends Mercy for Negro
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla., Aug.
21 (AP)—Criminal Court Judge C.
E. Chillingworth sentenced a 15-
year-old Negro to Heath yesterday
for raping a white women, but
said he would ask the State Pardon Board to commute the sentence
to life' imprisonment without parole.
The death sentence for Otis Neal
Jackson, who was convicted of raping a 23-year-old mother here last
Jan. 18, was made mandatory when
a jury returned its verdict without
a recommendation of mercy.
Judge Chillingworth said he
would recommend the commutation because of the boy's age.
Jackson testified at his trial that
he had the woman's consent.

British Railways
Demand Increase
LONDON. Aug. 21 (Reuters) —
Half a million British railroadmen
today banded in a pay claim that
woul add ..bout £14,000,000 to the
annual payroll of the nationalized
roads, already operating in the red.
They acted soon after national
trade union leaders, in a special report, warned the Labor Government that wages would have to go
up to keep pace with rising living
costs.
The Trades Union Congress,
which has 8,000,000 members, offl-
cally abandoned its three-year policy of withholding 'pay demands
with publication of the report.
The railroadmen are asking for
an over-all increase of 10 per cent
in wages. They already have had a
seven and a half per cent increase
this year.
Other unions are drafting wage
Increase demands in the wake of
the T.U.C. report.

Angler-Thieves
Loot Lake Cabins
Although philosophers and the
like are inclined to characterize
anglers as an honest, virtuous lot,
two South Shore cottage owners
will attest differently.
Thieves broke into the cabin of
Joe Wallach, nine miles East of here,
took a fly rod, a reel and six dozen
tVy. hooks and left everything else
intact. The loss is valued at $150.
Frederick Robinson's cabin at
Seven-mile got the same treatment.
This time the loss was a sleeping
bag, a mattress, one reel, an 'army
knife, a fish-cleaning knife, one
bottle of beer and the tip of a fly
rod. The rest of the rod* was left
behind.
The thefts took place some time
between Aug. 11 and 18 when the
cabins were unoccupied. R.C.M.P,
are investigating.

Independent Entry
To Be Named for
Nanaimo Byelection
VICTORIA, B. C, Aug. 21 (CP)
•—Entry of a dark horse independent candidate, backed, by Coalition
rebels, today assured a real knock
"down and drag out fight in the
forthcoming  Esquimalt  byelection.
W. A. C. Bennett of Kelowna, announced on his arrival here that
he has been asked by a group of
Esquimalt citizens to back an independent nominee yet to be chosen,
Mr. Bennett said he has accepted
the invitation and described the
byelection as the "dying gasp of a
discredited  Government.",
"I'm informed it will be a candidate who lives in Esquimalt and
who will represent Esquimalt, not
any political party," Bennett declared.
The South Okanagan Member,
whose slashing attacks last session
ended with a dramatic declaration
of his independence on the floor of
the House, criticized Government
delay in-calling the Esquimalt poll.
"The Government postponed the
election until the last moment, and
left Esquimalt without representation at one of the most important
sessions in B. C.'s history.
"Passage of the alternative voting plan at the session is a clear
sign that Coalition is finished," he
said.
Mr. Bennett said he expects a
meeting will be held soon to ctioos.
the dark horse candidate for lhe
contest expected Oct. 1.
This will make a probable field
of six. Already chosen are Mayor
Percy George, Cln.; Frank Mitchell,
C.C.F.; Mrs. Andrew Whisker, Independent; Archibald Mclntyre.
Independent, and the Social Credit
has said it will enter a candidate.

North Bay Named
Training Ground
OTTAWA, Aug. 21 (CP)-Stra-
tegically-located North Bay,- Ont.,
was named today as the training
ground for the airmen who would
guard Canada's vast Northern
spaces in war.
The KC.A.F. said an all-weather
operational flying training unit is
b.lng formed there and should be

North Bay is 175 air miles due
North of Toronto.
' It will train pilots and navigators

long-range, all-weather jet fighter
designed to meet the threat of air
attack across the remote Northern
areas of C-nada. ■      ':-;.'.,

all-Canadian jet fighter.
There Is at Chatham, N.B., an

as training progresses. They are being built at Malton. Ont ..."
American Answers
Lake Questioners
VICTORIA, B.C., Aug. 21 (CP)-
Harvey Harris, publisher of Lop..
Beach, Calif., answered a question
being asked by many Canadians
since the beginning of the Buttle
Lake hearings, when he addressed
a service club meeting.    .
"You ask 'why are U.S. citizens
so interested in conserving Canadian parks?' and I can give you
the answer," he said.
"We lost nearly all of our own
natural beauty spots before we got
wise," he said, "and we want to
prevent the same thing happening
here."
"We love this country, Its people,
its natural beauty of forests and
lakes. More and more tourists from
the United States want to spend
holidays in wilderness parks, to
counteract the strain of everyday
life."
Mr. Harris said there Is a forest
visible from the windows of his
home in Long Beach, "a forest of
500 oil derricks."

KOREANS WATCHING
NEW YORK, Aug. 20 (CP) —
Correspondent. George Barrett says
in a dispatch from Seoul to the
New York Times today that- many
Koreans are watching the case of
three Canadian soldiers charged
with murdering a Korean as possible proof that United Nations
authorities have decided to crack
down on unruly troops.
The Times Correspondent says the
Canadians, members of the Princess
Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry,
are coming up for court martial in
Seoul next week in connection with
the murder of three Koreans and
wctmding of another as the aftermath of an 'attempted r_pe. The
Times Writer said two British soldiers also were ilnvolved in the
murders.
Writes Barrett:
"One cf those killed was a Korean
Army Lieutenant, Yi Chang Sun,
and it is his murder specifically for
which the three accused are to be
tried.
"Five  other  Canadians  are  said
to be involved I the crime, but
to a much lesser extent, and these
already have bi'.i punished. The
two Britons also have been punished but the thiee Canadians now up
for trial apparently.will be the real
test." .       '
LAUDS DECISION
Barrett in his dispatch lauds "the
forthright and determined decision"
of Canadian authorities to track
down the criminals..<He says .most
observers view it "as a sign that a
badly-needed campaign to shock
some United Nations troops into
awareness of basic human decency
has begun." ,
He adds;
"Alt.iough Korean civilians have
been brutalized by troops on boih
sides, the hard fact of the matter in
Korea is that the Chinese, waging a
propaganda war as intently as a
shooting war, have impressed many
Koreans with the disciplin of their
troops. Many residents of Seoul-
seem to go out of their way to tell
about the good Chinese behavior,
and specifically about public executions of two rapists the Chinese
are said to have held.
"Details of the crime of which the
Canadians are accused are particularly shocking. The greatest ill-
effect from this crime is its seizure
by the Koreans as a symbol of the
widspread contempt held by mar.y
United Nations soldiers for the
people^ of this country. . ■
people of this country, a contempt
emphasized every day in the way
the Koreans are pushed around."
Here is how Barrett describes the
incident:
"Those up for trial are accused
of invading a Korean home last
March 17 and attempting to attack
two women occupants while members of the criminal party restrained the men of the house who tried
to protect the women. Finally the
Korean men succeeded in freeing
themselves and .hrowing out the
troops."
"As the Canadians and two British
soldiers withdrew from the house,
somebody threyi a hand grenade
inside and killed three of the occupants and injured a fourth."
Barrett says Canadian investigators roamed the front lines to get
evidence. They discovered- a grenade handle with the fingerprints
of one of the accused on it. Also,
reports the Times Correspondent,
a 45-calibre bullet was dug out of
lhe clay wall of the Korean hut and
was found to fit the gun of one of
the accused.

Suez Inspection
CAIRO, Aug. 21 (Reuters) —
Rules for examining "ships passing
through the Suez Canal—a problem
now before the United Nations Security Council—will be modified,
an Egyptian customs spokesman
said today.
In future, only custoihs authorities
will be authorized to search ships,
and there will be only one inspection of each ship, he said. Hitherto,
coastguardsmen and soldiers have
conducted independent searches.
Britain, France and the United
States have protested against the
inspection measures, which the
Egyptians say are due to the country's "state of.war" with Israel.
A resolution asking that restrictions on canal passages be lifted
was due for debate by the Security
Council today but has been postponed to next Monday.

MOTOR VEHICLES
CASE CRITICIZED

Magistrate L. Beevor-Potts today
criticized intervention of the Attorney-General's Department in a
motor vehicles case.
Frank S. Cunliffe, K.C. of Nanaimo was charged with failing to
have a driver's licence.
"I have been instructed to make
application to have the charge
withdrawn," Sgt. Chris Jacklin of
the R.C.M.P., told the court.
"I am very surprised," said the
magistrate. "It puts me in a very
invidious position and I shall have
to take into consideration any
other charges such as this."
He added that 'the Attorney-
General's Department must take
the responsibility. He then dismissed the charge.

offence as he was convalescing
from a stay in hospital ■ when his
birthday occurred, voiding his licence. He said he obtained a renewal the same day he was checked by police.
A similar charge against Mae Lee
of Alberni was heard by Magistrate
Beevor-Potts. He ordered a 14 days

Crew of Arctic Supply Ship
Snowbird Try Eskimo Rations
TEXAS FARMER S. F. Laird looks sadly as his sun-parched con,
falls Into the arid bottom land. Cracks several feet deep and Inches
across have been caused by the severe drought, one of tha worst In
Texas' hlstory^-Centrill Preaa Canadian. „
VICTORIA, B.C., Aug. 21 (CP) -
An adventure in eating was what
the crew of the motor vessel Snow
bird II qalled an ice-bound stay in
the Arctic.
The R.C.A.F. supply ship arrived
at Sidney, B.C., near here, Monday
after a 16-day, 4000 mile voyage
through the Northwest Passage. It
had been ice-bound for two years
in the Arctic.
The sea-going fliers,' under command of Sqdn. Ldr. S. C. N. Bur-
ridge, 40-year-old veteran skipper,
flew into Tuktoyaktuk, near the
mouth of the MacKenzie River, in
the Spring to bring the Snowbird II
to her home port.
For about a month the ship's
crew was  without meat  supplies.
"I did what the Eskimos did,"
recalled Cpl. Phil Huschl of Vancouver, the cook aboard the Arctic ship.
"First, I served them dried
Moose Meat. Then In rapid succession came blubber; a mysterious fish known to the EsklmoB ai
'Connie,' which means 'unknown',
but Is actually like a. hybrid of
salmon and whitefish.and some
dried whale meat."
But the prize dish, was "muck-
luck," the meat of a small 1000-
pound whale, and finally Polar Bear.
There were no complaints and the
18-man crew returned home in the
pink. .'   ,
Along with the good food there
was plenty of entertainment. The
crew played baseball with the -Eskimos on fields of ice. played billiards with two padres in the village
of Tuktoyaktuk and had cribbage
tournaments with members of the
R.C.M.P. detachment.
The voyage home was a battle
against drifting ice, dense fogs and
storms. After the ship rpunded the
tip of Alaska southerly gales tossed
the shallow-draft vessel about like
a corkscrew, crew members reported. '
They brought home an Inflationary-price Polar Bear skin.
"We bought It from an Eskimo,"
•aid Sqdn. Ldr. Burrldge. "It cost
$40. Several years ago the price
would have been $10."
