j to be covered ln this district has
I been submitted to Victoria, and the
[aociety is now preparing to circ-
[ulate, a petition for this-district
1 The petition must be signed by
t every' property holder concerned,
| he explained. Owing to tremendous
['preparatory machinery, it would
I not be before March 1 that the petl-
I tion will be circulated.
"Then it will be up to the Individual land owners," he said.
"They will decide whether we will
get a hospital or not."
If the improvement district which
corresponds exactly, to the Castlegar
school district, with a population of
6800, is approved, trustees will be
elected, who will prepare a financial plebiscite for approval by the
ratepayers.
"We are aiming for approximately a 32-bed hospital," he said. "We
do not know the cost. The best we
tan hope for is $10,000 to $12,000
per bed." With assistance from the
provincial and federal governments,
this would mean a two or three
mill rate or $8 to $12 per year for
the average resident.
Regarding the Chamber's complaints about poor telephone and
radio reception in the area, a letter
was rcadfrom the B.C. Telephone
Company at Vancouver advising
that a direct line from Castlegar to
Nelson was not practical at present,
but will certainly become so, once
the anticipated district expansion
ensues.
The Chamber was also advised
that faulty telephone reception between Castlegar and Trail is being
investigated. The matter is to be
pursued further by the Chamber
at a later date..
The secretary advised members
that no answer had been received
regarding the Chamber's request
fer a radio booster station at Castlegar to improve radio reception.
He was. Instructed to ask the department of transport for an early
reply.

3. At what rate of pay were ttiey
listed?
4. Was remuneration ln cash or
by check?
6. If the latter, who cashed the
checks?
6. Were deductions made for income tax purposes at source?
7. If so, what claims, if any, were
made for exemptions because of
(a) married status; (b) other dependents.
The questions may be answered
orally or in writing.-

Parents Walch
Anxiously Over
Separated Twins
CHICAGO (AP) - The newly-
divided Brodie Siamese twins went
separate way 'safter their historic
operation, one becoming conscious
but the other taking a turn for the
worse and then improving only
slightly. .'/
Rodney, favored fofe "survival of
the fittest" by ,chpice,-;0f surgeons
who separated him from his bigger
twin brother, regained consciousness with a cry and a smile Thursday morning. '„■
His twin, Roger, whose brain circulation was impaired by the operation—the 13th on the twins—suffered one relapse but then showed
a slight gain. .   .
Surgeons said Thursday night,
however, that his condition still is
"precarious."
At the height of the 12-hour and
40-minute operation, surgeons discovered their earlier fears were
well founded. There was only one
saggltal sinus, the main passageway or vein. draining blood back
from both brains. They had been
born with the tops of their heads
joined.
.This called for an immediate
choice. The incision could be made
to give one twin ot the other the
vital vein.
r.Or. Eric Oldberg, head of the
University of Illinois' department of
neurology, said' Rodney got the
break because he was! holding up
much better under the strain of the
operation,' and surgery in his favor
could be more easily performed,
r. gqth,: p/Hns .'rWere «n«»MOipU» A&
night, and Roger took; a •aharp'tsrl*
tical turn at 5 a.m., when his throat
began to swell, shutting off h 1 s
breathing!
Dr. ■ Cecilr Riggs, - resident doctor
at the university's neiiropsychiatrlc
institute, performed an emergency
tracheotomy, slitting an opening in
the throat and windpipe- to aid
breathing. Roger began to rally after this.
Doctors said then that.. Roger's
heart was beating slowly and not
pumping much blood to.his brain,
and that small, collateral veins were
then able to substitute for the large
missing vein.'
However,, Dr. Goldberg said the
chances were "almost nil" that ne\v
collateral' veins Would grow and
help carry the burden.
TTie parents, Mr. and Mrs. Royt
Brodie of Moline, 111., maintained
their harrowing vigil near the
cribs of their tiny 15-month-old
sons.
Brodie, a, small, dark-haired man

his hands trembled. He said:
"I was hopeful since the day
they were born. Now we're waiting
and praying."

Hazards In
WASHINGTON (AP) - The National Education Association has
struck out at what It called high-
pressure sports competition among
youngsters of elementary or junior
high school age.
A committee completing i three-
year study condemned such* things
as "little league" baseball,' "little"
bowl games, midget football and
"biddy" basketball for youngsters 12
years old oi younger. For real mites,
by the wsy, there's even "iddy
biddy" basketball.
The committee said highly-organized competition gives youngsters
an exaggerated idea ot the importance of sports and may even be
harmful to them.
The views of the committee were
summed up in a 46-page booklet
entitled;: "Desirable Athletic Competition for Children."
< These views were amplified on
Thursday by.the committee's chairman, Simon A. McNeely, et a press
conference. McNeely is a specialist
on health and recreation for the
United States office of education.
McNeely said a survey of doctors
Shows they fear highly-competitive
sports may be injurious to health.
He aald doctors listed dangers from
over-exhaustion or bone injuries.
Youngsters mature at different
rates. Those who stand out In Sports
at the age of 13 or to usually are
boys who have matured taster then
others.
The committee's suggestion: Informal Intramural competition for
children in upper elementary grides
and physical education for all
youngsters.
"We're for sports end we're for
competition," McNeely said, "But we
think the study shows lt shouldn't
be highly competitive ln which win
ning becomes too important."

INVERMERE—Domestic arrangements at the Lady Elizabeth Bruce
Memorial Hospital are functioning
with increased efficiency, with the
remodelling of the kitchen of the
institution.
An institutional-type electric

sink with dishwashing attachments
was donated by the Senior Ladies'
Aid here.
, The kitchen has now been remodelled, with huilt-in cupboards,
bins and counters, and redecorated.
Cupboards are white enamel with
Delft blue inside, and counter tops
are blue arborite with chrome trilp.
New Inlaid linoleum is a cream
marble, pattern.
A white enamel tray wagon holds
14 trays for patients, and new
dishes are on order for these. A
double-size pop-up toaster is a further convenience. A garbage burner
provides auxiliary warmth, and is
a useful item in the kitchen.

the nurses' dining room, assuring
them of piping hot meals. This little
dining room has been painted a
soft cheerful daffodil yellow and
the Senior Ladies' Aid has offered

window.
The institutional-size electric refrigerator, which* was also a gift
of the Senior Ladles' Aid at Invermere several years ago, fits neatly
into a convenient corner of the
kitchen. Fluorescent lighting adds
another modern touch.

Some Criminols Just
Schemers, Others
Mentally Incapable
"Crime is a major industry on tha
North American continent," declares
Dr, Rojjert 0. Jones, professor of psychiatry at Dalhousie University. "We
in Canada like to pride ourselves on
the fact that our situation is better
than in the United States, but we still
have no trouble keeping our courts
busy." .
This, he submits, offers ample evidence that our methods of dealing with
• crime have been notoriously unsatisfactory. Our crime rate has gone steadily up,'and a very large number of
'people go right on repeating crimes
despite having been exposed to all the
reforms of our system. So any thinking person has a right to ask whether
we c&nnot do something better, and
perhaps cut down on crime through
prevention.    •
"I don't think all crime is primarily
psychiatric in significance," states Dr.
Jones at the outset. "I have a feeling
that a good deal of what might be
called 'organized crime' is'carried on
by smart and clever people whose personalities are not distinctly different
from those of successful men te other
pursuits. They have reasoned that an
activity outside the law will bring
them more profits in an easier and
quicker way. These men may be lacking in some sort of moral sense, but I
don't believe they are mentally ill.
"I'd have some difficulty in drawing sharp lines between the moral
sense of the bootlegger and that of his
customer, between the radetrack bookmaker and the man who gambles, or
perhaps even better, the activities of
the- ring that furnishes protection
and certain smart business practices.
People like those are problems for
society as a whole, and not particularly for specialists in the more limited field of psychiatry."
Dr. Jones declares, however, 'that
there is a considerable proportion of
crime which can best be looked upon
as indicating some type of sick personality. That is, a criminal acting in
the way he, does because of certain
defects within himself, which really
and honestly prevent him from doing
much better. •
A survey a few years ago of 10,000
prisoners in Sing-Sing Penitentiary
reported fhat more than a third were
considered to be either mentally defective, or psychotic (insane), or they
had some sort of emotional upset
Which rendered them not really responsible for what they did.
, "I think if anyone looked at the
roster of crimes to come before any
court sitting, he'd agree that at least
a third of them were not the acts of
reasonable people, but of people acting ln a very stupid way or acting, in a
way which suggested that they.were
emotionally upsey '

Dear Sir—At the regular meeting of the

to write to you and express bur regre.t that
the newspaper account of Miss Eileen Mackenzie's report on the Soroptimist convention
.in Copenhagen was rather misleading.;
We can assure you that-Miss Mackenzie
had nothing but praise for. the. country and
the people of Denmark, and one point that'
she stressed over and over was amazement St
the number bf people who spoke English.
We are indeed sorry the report caused
misunderstanding.

Growing Older
A little more tired at the close ot day,
A little less anxious to have our own way,
A-little less ready to scold and.blame,
A little more care for another's name.
And so we are nearing the journey's end,
Where Time and Eternity meet and blend.
A little less care for bonds and gold,'
A little less zest than in days of old,
A broader view and a sane; mind,
And a little more love for all mankind.
A little more careful-of what we say,
And so we are faring a-down the way.
A littler more love for the friends pf youth,
A little more zeal for-established, truth,
A little more charity in our views,
A little less thirst for the daily news.
And so wb are folding our tents, away
And passing In' silence at close of day. '
A little more leisure to sit and dream,
A little more real the things unseen,
A little bit nearer to the pilgrims ahead,
With comforting Visions of those long dead.
And so we are going'where all must go,
To the place that the living may never know.
A little more laughter, a few more tears,
And we shall have'told our increasing years.
The book is closed and the prayers are said,
And we are part of the living dead.
Thrice happy, then, If some soul can say,
"I lived because he has passed my. way."
-FLORENCE L. UHLER.
Their Own Account
To those who have been skeptical of
reports of massacres by Chinese Communists,
inclined, to believe that such reports were distortions, comes The Manchester Guardian to
reveal that Po Yi-Po, one,of the chief dignitaries of the Peking Government, has just
published in the Comintern Journal an official estimate of the numbers executed by the
Chinese Communists. Thus: .'''...
"In the past'three years we have Haul-
dated more than two million bandits. Bandits
are non-existent in China now, and the social
order has become stable as never before."
"Bandit," The Manchester Guardian points'
out, means anybody who possessed a little
land, or who was disliked by the CommunlBts,
and adds: .'.,.,■,'■'  .• "    .
"Thlris the first public admission bry -
a member of the Chinese Government that
the Communists have killed, 'by execution
and .not In.battle or aa the consequences
of civil war, 2,000,000 of their subjects (the
figures were broadcast By the Peking radio). Since Tsmburlalne, what Government would have gloried ln it?"

From an
Notebook
By, R. O, JOY, Historian '
Nelion. Dlitrlot Oldtlmon An'n.
In searching my oldtlme stories,
I came across .one about. Duke
Harris, known as tha Flying Prospector and promoter. I hsve tried'
to get information as to bow ho
received' this title; maybo it tyas
like unto Colonel Lowry and Colonel Topping, both of whom received their ."rank" from their friends.
We have also CoL Peyton of Leroy
mine fame.
It is 12 years on more ago when
I visited Duke Harria at the Stirling Hotel.;on: Vernon,' Street:; I
shook hands with the.Duke and his
wife, who I believe la still living:
We find, that his real initials are
w.S. Harris, and that ha wai born
In tbe town of Kildare, Hulton
County, Ontario, which was p few
miles .from Milton, Guelph and
Hatollton.  ' ■ ,
"My father was born on a farm,
but left same to learn tha grocery
business: ta those days one had'
to serve ah apprenticeships for
three years. Later he went to Sault
Ste. Marie In the, year 1888. His
faMI|y remained till 1898. '
"I (Dryke) was at North Bay,
CopB-r. Cllffe, and Sudbury, and
played baseball -at.". all points
■found there," he told me,   *    r
"My ifncle came down from
Rossland to see hiB brothers who
were scattered all over Ontario.
He dropped off to see me, and
finally asked me to go West saying
"Pack your bag and trunk and I'll
give you a job at,the Leroy Mine
at Rossland,' I was working for a
railroad company. I handed ln. my
resignation, and later arrived in
Rossland, Bi C. "My uncle was manager, Captain Hall the superintendent an'd Roy Clark was assayer,
succeeded by Col. Peyton. '
' "Rossland was in. the course of
construction and the smelter at
Trail was being built by Hblnze. I
came by boat to Trail, by four-horse
stage to Roisland. I worked there
to different capacities. The mine
was later sold tp the British-American Corporation, of which ^Whlt-
aker Wright wai the head..Governor Macintosh was an old schoolmate of Whitaker Wright's, and he
represented the company at Rossland."
X worked for them about four1
years ,then I went to Phoenix and
worked under Yolen Williams, who
was superintendent' of the mine
there. I also prospected for yblen
Williams around Grand forks together with my father. I left Grand
Fotks arid wentto work for J. P.
Graves in. Montana, US.A, My
uncle and Al Corbett'were there
also. Then I went ,to SewareV.-Alisk'ar,
I started development iricoapfields
there, then went to Northern Brit
Ish Cobtaibla to the town of Hazel
ton. I remained' there for some
time and located a number of claims
before the railroad reached the
country. I sold them, made some
nice money, mostly from silver-
lead properties. This was the year
1931, In 1934 I came to Nelson and
took up the Bayonne mine."
19,000 MILES IN 33 WEEKS
"I understand you did considerable flying around that time,"
"Yes; I flew 19,000 miles to 33
weeks, covered a lot of. ground, I
wps working for DaveffSloan, Col,
Spencer and others. I'put prospectors in the field all over the
country by airplanes.
"I have three brothers, all to
mining. My aunt yfas Mri. James
Harris, one' time of Nelson and
Kaslo; Mrs. Garland of Kaslo is
Mrs. Harris' daughter.
Said I to Duke: "Mining and
dealing in mines must be ta the
blood."   .. "•
"Yel," he answered. "Mrs. Jennie
Harris was quite a mining broker
and real estate dealer."-
It was runiored; that this lady
managed the sale of most of the
land that' 'the late Peter Verigin
bought for the settlement of the
Doukhobor Society.
The Duke continued;- "I was at
Spider"' Mine" (this mine is being
developed and according to reports
is showing up well—R.G.J.) "The
property Is near the Meridian in
the Lardeau. I was also at Dawson
City, Atlin and the Charlotte Islands,
Carcross, N.W.T., Seward, etc. I also
Introduced the present Yankee Girl
mines to the owners." This was the
last time I saw Duke Harris. He was
a real, active Canadian oldtimer.
His cousin, O. Harris, now lives
in Kaslo,'B.C.

Aiioolated Preii Nawi Analyit
Recent emphasis on the economic
problems of the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization, and tha delays
ta planning for its expansion in 1993,
havo created.a widespread impression that lt isn't doing very well.
That is a matter of relativity.
While there has been a tendency
to slip back from the goals set 10
months ago, and there will.not bo
as many divisions.available ta 1933
as was anticipated, progress during
1933 has come close to'what was
expected — a defence force of 38
divisions with the same number
available for mobilization in from
three to 30 days.
This progress has eliminated tha
fear dominant among miliary men
two years ago that in event of war,
Russia could run over Western
Europe with little difficulty.
NAiTO estimates, were for 78 divisions by the end of next year and
100 by the end of 1954. That was
adopted as the critical date, when
Russian policy and military ability
would most nearly balance. Some
100 divisions, backed' by modern
strategic weapons in which the
Allies think they have a distinctive
edge snd which could be turned
directly against Russia herself, were
considered sufficient to deter her
from any break, or to hold successfully pending full Allied mobilization if she Insisted on a break.
Weapon developments and increasing quality ofthe forces has led
to estimates, particularly in Europe,
that these figures can be shaved
sor.ewhat. .without too nrnich risk,
so that the lame economic leg of
the defence structure may be
strengthened. •
One factor which has led to a new'
assessment of needs is the belief that
already NATO has" achieved
strength which Russia could not
hope to overcome without calling
up" reserves from behind her "front
line" forces in Eastern Europe. That
means a Warning period in which the
Allies would have time .to deploy
and mobilize.
The NATO meeting In Paris may
be taken as a sign bf the doldrums
Into .which it has fallen ta recent
months with regard to planning. Bui
this period will, end how ta a month
or two, when the members have ■
better look at their budget prospects
and the new Washington administration is installed.

By FORBES RHUDE

".The North American eonttnent. Is
so well off that other countries find
«j it rdifficult; to move in the same
.'Ctcircles.'-..-'.      . ; "■'.•-,
'".',. Thla fact,:to various wor-tof,
pops into about every discussion of

For instance, the recent Common-"

-    London, voting that various countries have felt it necessary to re-
vit strict their buying of American
..'.;  goods, phrases It as follows: r
''The rate of progress in renjov-
i ing discrimination will depend tipon
» the advance toward equil'brulm be-
r^tween the United States and the

\p r. This; is another way of saying

^CANADA'S DECISIONS

■yi r\ It }j rato«r a.wllet to And that.
the good intentions are not accom-
r    panied, as they have so often been,
by a list: of new entergeincy rfstrio-
tions. Tie intentions'are immedi-
2 ate, rather than deferred.
j'^-SEtj'STAfjE'"--:' "'.-'■"
-, More important,  the document
,. :,;■ seems to set the.stage for possible
'developments on a broader International scale by declaring an intention to deal with certain internal
.', matters that have been the subject
r.r   of outside criticism. It would curb
2 ■ rising prices; promote higher pro-
. if auction; provide' more goods that
4 if, may be. sold abroad; encourage in-
" i vestment in sound developments.
y    la all, one, can get the imprests sion that the document, aside from
'     its   merits   within   the   Commonwealth, is aimed at the next step
to <an international way—probably
,    ■ conference with the United States.
.   .One can get the impression that
;    all the objections which the United
'    States might raise have been con-
.    sldered, and an effort made to, an-
|    swer them in advance.
'rh.   One might interpret the docu-
-.y  ment as saying, in effect partlcu-
.' larly to the United States:
. '2. 2 "Our situation has been bad, but
&£ it is better. At the same time, lt Is
.not good enough. In our mutual to-
• terest, what should be done about
it?".
Like all expressions, of good in-
. tentions, tbe ultimate result will depend Upon the determination and
ability of all concerned to make
them effective.
NATO Ministers
Agree lo Risks
PAKIS (AP)—The North Atlantic
Treaty countries agreed Thursday
to spend $239,600,000 in 1953 for'airports and other solid defences
against possible' Soviet aggression,
This is just a shade more than
half the 5428,000,000 which Gen.
Matthew Kidgway, supreme commander in Europe, had outlined as
the "minimum" to provide-security.
Bene Pleven, French defence minister, ■ said- tbe reduced figure was
agreed upon by toe NATO council
after a four-day debate. The money
; voted will provide enough to begin work on airports and other
long-term projects as soon as, weather permits. ,
Decision on the final figure was
taken a few hours before the projected conclusion of the meeting,
called to get the 14 members to vote
all the money they could afford
without going broke.
CALCULATED RISK ,
', The statesmen, including Finance
Minister Abbott of Canada, met in
' the shadow of hard times over Europe, an economic slowdown which
led them to take what their military
advisers believe to be calculated
risks. lAmong them were:
1. A broad decision to scale down
the army, air force and naval goals
for the coming year. The advisers
had wanted toe equivalent et 75
divisions under arms by the end bf
'1053; now they will have to settle
for about 60.
' 2. An attempt to modernize gradually their weapons during' toe next
few years, slowly getting rid of outdated planes, guns and tanks ahd
concentrating also on guided missiles and atomic bombs and shells.

Much of this longdistance expansion is being realized by the Installation
of complex "carrier" equipment which in some cases enables us to
obtain as many as 22 voice highways from a single pair of wires! For
local service, only one conversation can be carried on a pair of wires
as carrier circuits would be too expensive for such short distances.
The use of certain types Of "carrier" equipment has made it possible
for us to increase facilities between, B.C. and Prairie and Eastern
Canada points by approximately 50 percent. This particular "carrier">
project required the construction of,a new, 83-mile pole line between
Hope and Princeton and the erection of a chain o'f "repeater" stations

WASHINGTON (AP) - Priest-
dent Truman's commission on tho
health needs of the United Statei
eame up Thursday with a middle-
ground proposal r tor solving one
of the hottest issues in the U, S.—
how to pay. the doctor's bill.
The commission proposed a $1,-
500,000,000 annual outlay'of federal
and state funds to bolster voluntary
insurance plans covering the costs
of hospital and medical care for ail
persons lacking full ability to pay.
The program would be administered chiefly by the states, which
would match federal money.
It, differs both from a plan unsuccessfully espoused by Truman
and a rival proposal of the American Medical Association.    .
Truman has. vainly, plugged for
a federal system of pre-paid sick
ness insurance for 129,000,000 wage-
earners, to be financed by a compulsory tax on employees and em-
ployer*. ..,•-,',
AMA CAMI-AIGN8  '        ■':', '.', -.
The ASIA has terified IVuman's
proposal "socialized medicine", ond
has campaigned for the extension
of "voluntary" Insurance plans —
that is, plans which a. person can
purchase if he wishes. Tbe.AMA,
however,, baa never taken a stand
as to whether it favored federal
subsidy of. such plans,
One of, the commission's main
findings was that "despite superior
medical service ahd low death rates,
Americana are not enjoying as good

Trigger-Happy Tactics
Disturb British Press
LONDON: (AP)-^Three leading
British newspapers express misgivings Thursday over the shooting
of riotous Communist prisoners in
Korea and demand a fuller explanation..-' .     ", " r '. I
The Liberal Manchester Guardian
and the Conservative London Daily
Mail warn that the shootings may
weaken the whole UN position on
the prisoner-of-war issuer
The pro-Labor London Daily Herald calls the latest shooting episode
at Pbngam, where 82 Red .prisoners
were killed ahd 120 were wounded
"disturbing"' and ilertiadds "Let's
have.the facts."
ADMITS DIFFICULTY
; The Guardian concedes that lt is
"ejftremely difficult fo keep order
In a crowd of fanatical Communists" but it asks "Has everything
possible been done ln this and other
camps to make them secure and to
ensure that the prisoners are not
incited to revolt by surreptitious
messages from North Korea as they
have been in 'the past?"
| In a .'tt(mtJpage: editorial, the
Daily Mailcautiohs against playing
into Communist hands by calling
the Americans "trigger happy."
"The question to be asked is not
why the Americans fired but Why
3600 prisoners were allowed to concentrate in sUch a fashion,"
Weakens confidence       .
The..Daily' Herald • refers .to a
statement in the House of Commons

Snow for Europe
After Gale Drops
LONDON (AP)—Heavy snows In
the wake of battering gales covered
most of central and nothern Europe
today with a Yule-like white blanket, but moderating winds allowed
two big trans-Atlantic liners* to get
under way for New York—hours
late;'
Snow was reported from Italy,
Switzerland, Belgium, Germany and
the Scandinavian countries. In
France, . however, there were
threats of floods around the Bordeaux area due to melting snows.
The 33,320-ton liner United States
finally pulled out of her berth at
Southampton, more than 20 hours
after'scheduled sailing time, and
the French liner Liberie also left
Le Havre, France, 10 hours late.
Both-had been delayed by English
channel gales.
MINOR DAMAGE
..The United- States, which holds
the Atlantic speed record, suffered
minor damage to her bridge and
observation deck Wednesday when
high; Winds slammed the vessel
against the dockslde as she was
being manoemted away from her
moorings in a Vain attempt to get
out of port
The drop in the winds also permitted Removal of, 20 officers and
men from the Swedish jninesweep-
er Orskar, aground off the southeast
Coast of Sweden, near the port of
Kalmar, Thirty other officers and
men.remained aboard the vessel
and: Swedish navy experts said
they expected to have the 380-ton
ship afloat In a few days.
'■ The gale left a trail of roofless
houses, broken fences and tangled
road traffic.' . . . . '■■,'■
. Two men were reported missing
when a boat overturned ■■on the
Trent river and an English workman was lost when he fell overboard from the 8025-ton Norwegian
ship Rind* at Birkenhead.
Freak Accident
EDMONTON .(CP) — City workman Nick Scbtscberbak was detained in hospital today for treatment after injured Wednesday when a barricade fell down a manhole and
struck Ijim on the head.
Police said a truoker was trying
to 'squeeze his vehicle between a
building and rthe barricade around
the mouth of the manhole when the
vehicle struck the barricade. ■
TORONTO (CP)-Albert Thomes
Hetherington was walking down
the street at Kitchener, Ont., the
other day* when a buzzing started
in his mind and he began looking
for the harbor ot Victoria. "
This isn't Victoria; this'is Etltch-
cner," an astonished stranger replied to his question and Mr. Hetherington of Victoria and Port Alberni, B.C. began rthe long road
back from a 20-day memory lapse.
The last thing the 47-year-old
janitor remembers before, the
blackout was making a $2 Grey
Cup bet .on .Toronto Argos in the
streets - of Nanalmo, B. C. Since
then RCMP officers have sought
him along the West Coast Mott of
this time he was forking as an
orderly in Kitchener hospital..
COMPLETE BLANK-
■■-■ Mr. Hetherington has no ides
how he got from Nanalmo to Kitchener or why he made the' trip. Psy-
chiatrlsts said they believe, his unwitting return to centrat Ontario
may. in some way be connected with
an unhappy childhood spent In virtual servitude to a farmer in Kitchener district, . L-. : '
•The 12 days as a hospital orderly
they link with a period in 1030
when he was in hospital while serving with the Calgary Highlanders,
While convalescing he assisted in
the wards ot Col. Belcher Military hospital, Calgary.  -     .*'}.'■"
Mr. Hetherington told hla Btory
here Wednesday. Friendless and bewildered, he passed , a City newspaper building and recognized the
name because he subscribed to the
paper ln Port Alberni. He entered
the building and told his story.'
PHONED WIPE
Mr. Hetherington went to the
telegraph office to let his wife
know he was all right. He still remembered he bad been working
ln th* hospital and returned to get
the address of the boarding-house
where he had. lived.
Mr. and Mrs. Hetherington moved from Victoria to Port Alberni
one month before the blackout. The
move was made necessary after Mr.
Hetherington' suffered a heart attack and had to give up his painting and decorating business. It wts
then he obtained a caretaking Job.
Bee-keeping experts say the. best
and quickest cure for a bea sting
is an ordinary mud-pack.

Republic Resents
Royal Title
bUBLIN (AP)-Forelgn Minister
Frank Aiken said Wednesday night
the people of the Republic of Ireland deeply resent the listing of
Northern Ireland as a part of tbe
United Kingdom in the royal title
of tbe Queen.
Parliamentary approval of this
phrasing, will "but steel their determination that the counties cut
off will tdoner or later be restored"
to the rest of Ireland, h^. declared
in a statement.   '
Onlr£ the six northeastern counties of Ireland—Ulster—still maintain allegiance to the Crown. The
.stand's other 26 counties, the independent Republic otIreland, refuses
to recognize this "partition" and
continues to demand' that .Ulster
be made part of'the republic
"BRITISH  AGGRES8ION"
"These six northeastern counties
are In an alienable part of the Irish
national territory," Aiken said. "It
IS too bad the British government
should be Induced to link the British Crown and the royal family so
direotly with the cruel wrong of
partition which Is the latt remnant
of British aggression in* Ireland."
The title proposed fer the'young
monarch's coronation, announced
Dec. 12, would proclaim her "Elizabeth the second, by the grace ot
God of the United. Kingdom of
Great Britain and Northern Ireland
and of her other realms. and territories, Queen, head ot the Commonwealth, Defender of the Faith."

In his first game with Montreal

to help beat New York Rangeri
8-2. Bernle Geoffrlon got the other
three ln an unusual double hat
trick.
In other Thursday night games,
Boston tied Chicago 3-3 and Toronto
drew with Detroit M.
Bellveau, crack sharpshooter in
the Quebec Senior Hockey League,
was brought up from Quebec Aces
for a three-game lend-lease stretch..
He hai refused for two seasons to
lump to Canadiens. Thursday night
he rtltted Into the first line with
Maurice (Rocket) Richard and Bert
Olmstead as if be had'been playing
with them tor years. Richard had
a'part In all three goals by Bellveau.    .    '
Canadiens' undefeated string now
has reached six In which they collected 10 points of a possible 12.
A howling crowd of 14,641 saw a
bristling, ^crappy game In which
two Montreal goals were disallowed
and two major penalties were handed out culminating a rousing fight.
New York's goals were scored by
Paul Ronty and Nick Mickoski In
the second period, tying the game
at that stage.
The big f)ght broke out with Jim
Macpherson of Canadiens and Allen

period. The play consisted mostly ot
thi. Smokies butting around the
Maple Loaf net Frequent end-to-
end rushes occurred os the nimble
Nelson Maple Leafs slipped through
the Trail defence stationed at their
own blueline, but neither team
could get their sticks on tbe puck
long enough to do any. harm during
the first half of the period.
Tha first, goal came at the 11
minute mark when Cavanaugh replied' to a pass from Mailey by
flipping it into the Nelson cage.
Nelson got a turn shortly after when
Haldane broke the Trail barrier at
his own blueline and scored. Sinclair, put Trail one up with only

their troubles bunt into sudden fist-
swinging followed by a double five
minute penalty,
Secco scored the final goal ot the
period for. Trail leaving the acore at
4-2. In the third period the Nelson
Maple Leafs lost nearly all hop* of
a victory or even a tie when Cop-
tain Franky Turik fired ln an early
goal, bringing the scoro to 6-2. The
Nelson club fighting bard to get
back Into tbe game could not at
first make their plays click, but
later ih the period tha hard work

^patriate Amenc^
PAHIS (AP) — The French Na-'
tlonal Assembly has'voted to draft
into France's Army Americans of
conscription age living here more
than a year, either in one stay or
oi. several visits.
The draft age in France is 18%
to 28 years, ",
The assembly passed the bill
without''a debate. Raymond Trl-
boulet, speaking for the national
defence committee, frankly said the
action was being taken as reciprocity- "of thij worst kind" (for UiS.
laws which make Frenchmen living
in the United/States subject to
American military seryice,      ,.' ••'
TREATY REGRETTED
Tribpulet expressed regret that
negotiations for a treaty granting
reciprocal treatment to nationals of
the two countries had not succeeded.
"A French citizens will never admit," Triboulet said, "that ft is
equitable, when- he has fulfilled
military obligations, in France and
is even in certain cases a reserve
officer, to see himself submitted in
the United States — if his profession-
al obligations have kept him there
more than a year — to 24 months
service in the Americ n Army with
the possibility.of being sent to combat in overseas territories ..."

Massey Suggests
Arts Festival
OTTAWA (Cpl'—An interna tlonal
festival of the arts, to be held in
Ottawa,, was. suggested today by
Ht. Hon. Vincent Massey, Canada's
governor-general.
The festival mighty be attempted
-*«t least once as an experiment—
"to stimulate and encourage that active partteipation r lrir music and
drama and the other arts which are
becoming increasingly characteristic of life in this city and in Can?
ada as a whole," he. said,,
Tlie proposal fey. .'Mr. Massey,
who headed the royal commission
which produced a monumental report on Canadian culture, in 1951,
was made in a speech'to the Canadian Club here-
Mr. Massey said the festival
could find a pattern in the annual
festival of music ahd arts held in
Edinburgh.
"There.would be all sorts of difficulties! in the way, of course;" he
said, But, throughout this country's
history "unimaginable things have
been done."
"They still can' tie done." he
added.   .

Member Wanfs a
Healthy Deficit
OTTAWA (CP)-An independent
member of the Commons believes
the country has had enough financial surpluses tor a while and IVe
time tor a 'Wee healthy' deficit."
He sits among Liberal members.
J. r I,. Gibson, member for the
British Columbia Constituency of
Comox-Albernl, made the state,
menf|Wednesday-in saying the government shouldn't "overtax"'Canadians to the tune of $1,000,006
«Jay."  ■ .','■<'  "'.. ',';f,.' -       rr'   , *
That, was the estimated'rate of
the ; government's surplus under
present taxation. It was all right to
say the national debt was being
paid off but he did iy>t believe one
should worry about a: national debt
the size of Canada's which called,
for interest at only three per cent.
ISLAND TERIillN08
He also believed; that the trans-
Canada highway, should not have
its western terminus at Victoria
but should continue to the northern
tip of Vancouver Island. Tha government also should aid B.C. authorities to build a road from. Port
Alberni to the strategic military air
strip rat Tofino on the west coast of
Vancouver Island..
Outlining the political situation
in British Columbia, Mr, Gibson
said that the people of his province
are hot crazy. About 75 per cent
of them don't understand Social
Credit,, and 7B per cent of them do
not want Socialism.

Commerce Secretary Says Confusion
In United Slates Agencies in Europe
WASHINGTON (AP) — Commerce. Secretary Charles Sawyer,
back from a 10-country study ln
Europe, criticizes' American agencies abroad for' "confusion and
wasted effort i;. . too many people
doing too many' things ln Western
Europe."
• The time has come, Sawyer said
in a report to President Truman, to
take the emphasis off foreign economic aid and place it on trade,
'within tpe framework of long-term
economic thinking, He said Europeans, agree. ... ,% ".
TREMENDOUS RECOVERY.
Sawyer reported there has been
tremendous recovery in countries
aided by the United States; and
Europe can go on to prosperity, if
it keeps faith in itself.
The U.S. must avoid dictating or
even guiding European policies,
the secretary wrote, but should
stand by. "to give the encouragement which comes from having an
understanding and helpful friend
at band."
He added emphatically that nothing the U.S. does to help Europe,
such as cutting tariffs, should
undermine, the American economy
because "a prosperous America is
necessary not only for us but for
the rest of the free world . . ."
On the subject of tfS. establish-
««iff«»Wi«i«WigCT«>tWM
ments abroad, Sawyer stated:.
There was almost unanimous
opinion that we haver too many
people and too many agencies in
Western Europe '.'...'
CONFUSION, WA8TE
"Confusion and waste are the result.
'The solution.. . .is the abolishment of emergency agencies whose
task is either-completed or can be
absorbed by the regular1 departments. We still have Mutual Security Agency mission in some countries to which we are not now giving and for some time have not
given economic aid."
The mission visited Great Britain, France, Western' Germany,
Italy, Greece, Turkey, -Belgium,
Switzerland, The Netherlands and
Spain.
Sawyer reported i the general
level of turopean economic activity is about 40 per cent above prewar.
Laurent, he said he does not expect
that "you will have too much
trouble" ta British Columbia in the
next election.

THERE'LL ALWAYS
BE SANTA CLAUS
NEW, YORK (AP)-Even that
famous Santa Claus editorial could
not quite save Virginia.
You know about the New York
Sun reply to a little girl's letter asking if truly there was a Santa Claus.
"Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa
Ciat(f," lt said. "Be exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exist. ..."
That was more than a half-
century ago, but Virginia, now Mrs.
.Edward Douglas, and a grandmother
six times over, remembers that, ail
sht could understand then was the
assurance in the first line.  '        I
"It sustained me for two o- three
years," she'said Thursday.
WANTED TO BE SURE
Virginia O'Hanlpn, aged 8 in 1897,
wanted to be sure. So she wrote a
Wtter. to the Sun asking, "Please
tell me the truth, is there a Santa
Claus?" ,
"He lives, and he lives forever,"
the editorial said. "A thousand
years from now, Virginia, nay, ten
times ten thousand years from now,
he will continue to make glad the
heart of childhood,"
The editorial received .national
acclaim and has been reprinted
widely over the years.
"Santa always exists when you
have your own children," the grown
Virginia said. "You pass it on to
them, and they to their little ones,
and,, that keeps Santa alive .always."
