————————— Egypt Presses sT British, French Withdrawal Wants UN Consider Expelling U. K„ France if Answer Unsatisfactory By ROD CURRIE Canadian Press Staff Writer UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (CP)-Egypt and India Tuesday prodded the United Nations to demand from Britain, France and Israel a definite answer on their plans for withdrawing from Egypt, Egyptian Foreign Minister Mahmoud Fawzi said that if the answer is not satisfactory the UN should consider expelling the three parties from the UN Fawzi gave the last speech before the General Assembly turned from the Middle East problem and took up again the much-postponed general debate. ' Earlier India's V. K. Krishna Menon demanded immediate UN investigation of reports of a French armoured buildup in Port Said. ASK UN CHECK He urged that UN Secretary- General Dag Hammarskjold communicate immediately with the French government "to put the assembly at rest in regard to these reports.'' Later, Hammarskjold announced he has sent inquiries about the reported landing of a French tank regiment. The speeches by Fawzi and Menon followed the assembly's ac tion Saturday in approving an Asian-African resolution calling for the withdrawal "forthwith" of British, French and Israeli forces. Fawzi said the assembly is "duty bound and entitled" to ask the representatives of the three countries "to come forth and tell the assembly when the withdrawal of invading forces from Egypt will be completed." WON'T CLEAR CANAL Fawzi also said delay in withdrawal is "holding up and delaying clearing of the Suez Canal." "Egypt could not possibly conceive such clearance while forces remain in Egypt and while there is still the possibility of hostilities taking place." Fawzi also alleged atrocities In Egypt by the Invading forces ard said civilians had been "slaughtered without mercy." The charges by Egypt, he said, must not be left without thorough Investigation followed by "retribution and redress.' — 1 _ - , _ , . , r—r— WEATHER FORECAST ebon lailn Kootenay: Overcast low clouds in nearly all valleys but clear on the ridges.

C, CANADA-WEDNESDAY MORNING, NOV. 28, 1956 Stay on Job for Peoples' Sake, Hungarians Told By ENDRE MARTON BUDAPEST (AP) — Budapest's Council of Workers asked its members Tuesday night to stay on the job "in the interest of the people." But a spokesman for the organization said there was little likelihood of any quick agreement with the government of Janos Kadar, the Soviet-supported premier. Kadar's speech Monday night "did not serve the interests of Jordan To Cut British Ties BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP) — Jordan's Premier Suleiman Nabulsi announced Tuesday he was pro- eeeding to cut his nation free from its long alliance with Britain and to liquidate her miltary bases there. The announcement to the new Jordan parliament in Amman raised Western fears that the little kingdom, sliced off from Palestine by Britain after the First World War, was opening the doors still wider to Soviet penetration of the Middle East. The development, together with Indications that Syria rapidly is becoming the first Soviet satellite in the Middle East, could extend ■the Kremlin's influence all the way to the Red Sea at Aqaba. Nabulsi said his government was studying the establishment of diplomatic, cultural and'economic relations with the Soviet Union, and would seek financial aid from neighboring Arab countries to replace the annual $33,000,000 subsidy and assistance grant from Britain. the Hungarian people and it hinders a peaceful solution," a resolution passed by the council said. The council represents the capital's workers. Kadar declared that former premier Imre Nagy and his government "committed an unpardonable crime against the Hungarian nation" by failing to take action against the counter revolution." Kadar contended that fascists and reactionaries gained control of the Hungarian revolution shortly before Russian military might moved in' on Nov. 4. DEMAND NAGY RETURN The workers have been demanding that Nagy be returned to power in place of Kadar and that the Russians withdraw from Hungary. A council ipokesman declared: "We will not yield end the government knows It. Imre Nagy has been, and remains, our first demand and In the end we will win anyway."

(AP)—President Eisenhower moved to heal a split with Britain and France over the Suez crisis Tuesday. He also arranged to review the international situation at a Sunday conference here with State Secretary Dulles. A White House statement said differences which have arisen between the United States and her traditional friends and allies are those arising from a particular international incident"—British and French military action in Egypt, and U.S. refusal to back that action. But the statement said further: "These differences in no way should be construed as a weakening or disruption of the great bonds that have so long joined our nation with the United Kingdom and the Republic of France and our other allies in assuring that peace, justice and freedom*- shall prevail." Eisenhower and Dulles will meet Sunday at Augusta National Golf Club to review the international situation and'discuss the cabinet member's participation in a Paris meeting on the NATO ministerial council starting Dec. 11.

Canadian Press Staff Writer OTTAWA (CP)—A committee of Canadian tourist experts Tuesday suggested a "complete and comprehensive" economic survey be made of Canada's tourist industry. The survey, to cost some $40,- 000, would be the first of its kind in Canada. The committee was formed at last year's annual federal-provin cial conference to consider .the feasability of a study to estimate the importance of the tourist industry to Canada. Its recommendation that the survey be started was made as the 11th annual conference drew to a close. PROBING THROUGH SNOW, Hon- Wesley D.

Bums1 UH Force Tb Separate Anglo-French, Egypt Forces PORT SAID, Egypt (Reuters) —Maj.-Gen. E. L. M. Burns, UN commander-in-chief in Egypt, has decided to move United Nations troops into the area be- tween Anglo-French and Egyptian forces south of Port Said, It was announced Tuesday. The decision was made known at a press conference in Cairo by the Canadian general's liaison officer, King Gordon. The announcement said the present United Nations Emergency Force in Port Said will be increased to battalion strength and stationed at Port Said and Port Fuad.

No numbers were given for Tuesday's British withdrawals. Questioned on plans for a full- scale withdrawal the British spokesman said such a withdrawal probably would take two or three weeks once it got started. Vehicles also are being shipped out, he said, in what constituted a "considerable movement outward" Monday and Tuesday. He denied reports -that the British had brought in armored units. YUGOSLAVS ARRIVE SOON On Thursday, 700 Yugoslav UN troops with 130 vehicles and about 500 tons of equipment and stores will arrive here by sea and probably will spend several days here before going to some destination. south of the British frontline at El Cap.

Parliament Tuesday By The Canadian Press External Afi'j!;-s Minister Pear son said 4he Commonwealth was on the verge of dissolution over British intervention in the Middle East. ■ Maj.-Gen. G. R.

Finance Minister Harris was besieged by opposition pleas to help ease interest rates and credit curbs. Senator Sarto Fournier (L—Quebec) said Canada was right in chastising Britain and France for taking the "law into their own hands." Harris Begged to Ease Credit Curbs OTTAWA (CP)—Finance Minister Harris was besieged by opposition pleas in the Commons Tuesday to help ease interest rates and credit curbs "so that hard-pressed municipalities might find it easier to raise much- needed capital. But Mr. Harris gave no indication of any plans to change federal policy. In time of Inflation and when money was scarce, all sectors of the economy found it difficult to raise funds without paying high interest rates, he said. "If a municipal corporation finds that as an elected body it has to choose between paying a higher rate of interest and postponing work it has in mind, that is simply a resonsibility which comes to all of us at one time or another, whether it be the federal or a' provincial or municipal gov' ernment or indeed a business in stitution." The question ©I the impact of federal policy on interest rates and the availability of investment funds arose during the Commons question period. BOND MONEY TIGHT Erhart Regier (CCF — Burnaby- Coquitlam) asked whether Mr. Harris was aware that Bank of Canada action was making it exceedingly difficult for municipal governments to market bonds at suitable interest rates. Would the federal administration consider supplying municipalities with low- interest funds? "The question Indicates a complete misunderstanding of the money market at the moment, replied Mr. Harris. "It is not the action of the bank which in caus- ing the rise in interest rates; it is the demand on the money supply to both in business and in gov. ernment circles. The Bank of Can. ada interest rate is only a reflection of the increased interest rates in the money market," Bonner Scores "Tight Money" EDMONTON (CP) - Attorney- General Robert Bonner of B. C says the Federal Government's "tight money" policy is a direct threat to the economic welfare ctf all Canadians. Mr. Bonner tojd the Alberta Social Credit League annual convention Tuesday night that the federal policy places big com panies in a preferred position to finance expansion and its general effect would be a tendency to- ward elimination of the small businessman in Canada. "This policy is both unnecessary and in itself inflationary" Mr. Bonner said. "It favors big business over small business and encourages monopoly while pen. alyzing individual effort." $100 Fine Follows Bingo Raid VANCOUVER. (CP) —.

PCs Rap Gov't Stand In Suez Canal Crisis Fog Shows No Sign of Lifting VANCOUVER (CP) - An 800- foot-thick blanket of fog covered southwest British Columbia Tuesday night as it has for nearly a week. Thousands of dollars have been lost by airline companies whose schedules have been turned topsyturvy. Airline officials estimated the total cost in rerouted flying operations and cancellations at $200,000 and perhaps more. The damage caused by shipping and road accidents during the six- day pea-souper also totals thousands of dollars. Tuesday a CNR yard employee, Gary Peterson, 20, was killed at New Westminster because he couldn't see a train bearing down on him. At least a dozen persons have been injured in traffic accidents. Thieves have been active under the pall, television reception affected and mails delayed.

Late Tuesday the wather office at Vancouver reported no sign that the fog would lift within 24 hours. Blame U.S. Policies ior Big Share Of Trouble; Criticize St. Laurent By DON PEACOCK Canadian Press Staff Writer OTTAWA (CP)—Progressive Conservatives Tuesday strongly criticized in the Commons the Canadian government's attitude toward Britain and France in the Middle'East crisis and blamed a large share of the trouble there on United States pol icies. "The Canadian government has chosen to allign itself with those who are not satisfied with the plain statement of purpose and the expression of good faith on the part of the government of Britain and France in this matter," said Donald Fleming. The Conservative member for Toronto Eglinton at another point said: "While we are not the U.S. Congress, nevertheless we are entitled to say of the policies of the United States that they are responsible to a very considerable degree, a regrettable degree, for the trouble that exists in the Middle East today." BLAST CANADA'S POLICY Both Mr. Fleming and Howard Green.(PC - Vancouver Quadra) aimed blasts of criticism at Prime Minister St. Laurent as the Commons moved through the second day of the special parliamentary session to consider Canada's role in the Middle East and its planned $1,000,000 contribution to Hungarian relief.

C. not guilty of libel and slander against Wade and Wells Co., Ltd., contractor on the Stewart-Cassiar road in the northern part of the province. John Alley, counsel for Mr. Laing, immediately moved for dismissal of the action. Cecil Merritt, . counsel for the plaintiffs, asked that judgment be reserved until Wednesday while he decides wnether to acquiesce in the move for dismissal. Mr. Justice Norman Whittaker Ceylon Urges Withdrawals OTTAWA (CP)—Prime Minister Bandaranaike of Ceylon said Tuesday there Is no room for complacency in the explosive Middle East. He told reporters at a press conference that the people of Asia (eel the situation is "delicate, difficult and dangerous." He warned that there may be further deterioration unless there is immediate withdrawal of British, French and Israeli torces from Egypt. Mr. Bandaranaike left Ottawa late Tuesday by air .for New York after a 27-hour visit to the capital. -The Too Many Crown Corporations, Says Dupuis SHERBROOKE, Que. (CP) president of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce said. Tuesday that Canadians have been carried "too far and too fast along the road to big government." Raymond Dupuis of Montreal, elected last month at the association's annual meeting, told a service club Rotary that "big gov ernment" poses two threats: Gov ernment competition with business and high taxation to meet its spending. His text was released to the press before delivery. Government had. invaded Canadian business, he said, through 35 crown corporation employing 146; 400 persons. The number of employees in Canadian crown corpor ations had doubled during the last 16 years. . If the trertd continued the foun. datlon of the country's free economy could be shaken. Many gov ernment enterprises, begun as crown corporations during the Second World War, had lingered "long after the emergency had pasted." then adjourned the hearing .until 11 a.m. Wednesday. " The actio ngrew out of a let ter Mr. Laing wrote to Mines Minister Kiernan last spring, subsequently published in the press and read at two public meetings, asking for an official investigation of the handling of the Wade end Wells contract. CARE URGED Court officials said the move for dismissal of the action was necessary because the jury's verdict in a slander and libel case is not necessarily the verdict of the court. It was learned that Mr. Mer- ritt's request for time to consider his course of action resulted from a recommendation which the jury attached to its verdict that in political controversies "reasonable care" be exercised that a third party who«may be innocent be not brought into it. In his charge to the jury, Mr. Justice Whittaker said It must decide whether the statements made by Mr. Laing were critical of government road policy In general and former lands minister R. E. 8ommeM In particular or whether they were defamatory of Wade and Wells. 13 Tanks Lost in $1 Million Fire CALGARY (CP) - Fire raged through a huge tank hangar in the Sarcee army camp just outside the city Tuesday destroying military equipment valued at an estimated $1,775,000. Thirteen Centurion tanks, six believed to be new, were twisted and burned to ruin by the blaze. Fire Chief Barney Lemieux said Tuesday night the short but furious blaze was the biggest in the history of the Calgary area. One man, a civilian workmen, was burned but his condition is not serious. Army officials said the 19.00U- square-foot, steel and concrete hangar which was demolished in tiie blaze, was worth about $150,- 000. It is believed it was a wartime structure. No official value could be placed on the tanks. The accepted figure for a Centurion tank is $123,000. vative non - confidence motion critizing the government, Mr. Fleming termed the prime minister's statement Monday "petulant, belligerent and provocative" and said much ot Mr. St. Laurent's "impatience" a t e m » from the fact there is growing sympathy in Canada and other countries for the Anglo-French intervention in Egypt. Mr. Fleming took particular ex- cetpion to Mr. St. Laurent's statement that he has been "scandalized" more than once by the attitude of the big powers "who have all too frequently treated the charter of the United Nations as an Instrument with whioh to regiment smaller nations." \ "Is that not a gratuitous eon- demnation of Britain and France?" asked Mr. Fleming. Earlier, External Affairs Minister Pearsdn said that at one point after British-French land action began in Egypt the Commonwealth was "on the verge of dissolution." Mr. Pearson described current events in Syria and Lebanon as "a matter of immediate gravity." INCREASE FORCE? John Diefenbaker (PC - Prince Albert) asked whether the UN Emergency Force in Egygpt will have to be increased to deal with the new problem arising from the "critical" situation in Syria and Lebanon. Mr. Pearson said the UN force would soon be greatly increased. Its terms of reference dealt only with 'matters there, but the UN General Assembly was in session and he felt the force's functions could be extended if necessary. On the Hungarian situation, he said there is some hope that Eastern Europe is beginning to free Itself from Soviet shackles. But "It would not help, and It might hurt the people there, If we held out promises of .liberation by force which at this time we might be unable to. fulfill." Canada could help by keeping the spotlight of world opinion on Russia's "savage actions" against Hungarian freedom lighters and by working to get the UN into Hungary as observers and investigators. Mr. Green said Canada for 10 years has been currying favor with the U.S. The government was "the U.S. chore boy." The U.S. had brought on seizure of the Suez Canal by refusing financial help for the proposed Aswan Dam on the Nile River. Now U.S. policy was to build up Egypt and presumably-get Britain and France out of the Middle East. Nothing Mr. St. Laurent had said indicated Canada's policy was any different. 'Ws high time Canada had a government which won't knife Canada's best friends .in the back." The government had made the month of November "the most disgraceful period for Canada in the history of the nation." 70 Hungarians Due Tuesday VANCOUVER (CP) — The first flight of Hungarian refugees to Canada from Vienna will arrive in B.

(CP) The Union of South Africa said Tuesday it is reducing its UN representation to a token group, as a protest against what is considers to be intenfence with one of its domestic problems, the racial issue. In a voice that rose st times to sharp, fitter tones, Foreign Minister Eric H. Louw charged that tne General Assembly violated its own charter by voting to place two items concerning race relations in South Africa on the agenda for this session. One item concerned charges that Indians ln South Africa have been mistreated. The other was on "the question of race convict in South Africa. Summer Bonspiel Group Quits Protest Council's Stand on Arena Ice Rental Charge "In view of the fact that the Nelson City council cannot see its way clear to give the association the use of the Civic Centre arena and curling rinks gratis, and that to continue under the present system and pay the $2400 demanded by the city would mean bankruptcy to them," the Nelson Midsummer Bonspiel association decided Sunday afternoon at a special meeting to suspend operations. The decision was made "with reluctance" but the association felt that for the city to ask a group of its own citizens to pay $2400 for the use of the two rinks for the privilege of putting on the city's own bonspiel was "just a little too cold-blooded a business deal." Further, it stated, when told by the manager of the Civic Centre that the price would be $2400 for the week, it was also told that in the event of the Calgary Stampeders returning next summer for pre-season football training, the badminton hall would not be available for the mixer. "It is apparent, therefore, that in certain positions in the city, the bonspiel, a $50,000 business, already stands second in importance to a venture that cost the city some $2900." "Even Shylock," the association protests, "only demanded his pound of flesh, but the council and commission' want the whole carcass and would keep the miserable hulk still working." The association contends that as the curling event is the city's own bonspiel, "the use of the Civic Centre should be given gratis to them as the city's contribution and in that way there would be no trouble with a long-term lease as Alderman Elizabeth Wallach has pointed out." ' That contribution to the city would mean "book entries for light and power, a little wear and tear on machinery and a little extra in wages. It keeps a crew working in the summer months even when there is no bonspiel." This contribution, the association felt, Is "little enough to give as compared with the months of work that is put Into ths bonspiel by the executive, to say nothing of the value de. rived by the city, But for the council to demand $2400 from this three-year old association which Is working for the welfare of the city can only be compared to infanticide." For the donation of $750 from the City, the association ^points out, the city received the following this year: $1450 for the use of the Civic Centre; $4000 worth of publicity and promotion, A queen to represent the 'oify at the PNE, tourist and publicity about Nelson and district in a 2B-page booklet given to all curlers and circulated to sanyone asking information about Nelson, (1200 printed); An estimated $40,000 spent in the city of Nelson by bonspiel- ers, 17 businesses in Nelson selling their own stock of penny matches with summer bonspiel advertising, boosting the city of Nelson; a score of gimmicks and hours of fun given some 800 people from all parts of Canada, sending them home with wonderful memories of Nelson, and many promises to return "There were other items, too, boosting Nelson, and for all those benefits the association asked only the use of the Civic Centre gratis. I The council decided it was too great a request." In the news story on page two of the Nelson Daily News Wednesday, Nov. 21, continued the Association, Aid. Wallach is reported as saying "she had found people extremely interested to hear for the first time, that the city granted $750 this year and last year for the event. The 1954 grant was $1000." "The same people might be TOMORROW THE SHOOTING BEGINS Attend the Kiwanis Turkey Shoot Civic Centre * TOMORROW * FRIDAY * SATURDAY mission Free interested," the association suggested, "to know that the cost of the arena to the bonspiel as- sociation*rose from $900 to about $1700 in 1954, and for the past two years when we received ' $750 from the city the cost was around the $1400 mark (so who was paying who?) They might be interested to know that the $2500 just mentioned is- all the cash donated by the city in 12 years of bonspiel and this compares with $2900 which the city has underwritten the Calgary Stampeders in one year. It is said that of this $2900, some $2400 can be accounted for in second-hand equipment at the Civic Centre. "The same people might be interested to know that the city's donation of $750 was just half what Sptfkane TV stations gave the bonspiel association for Nelson and its bonspiel; for the 'TV time was worth $1500, and cost the city of Nelson nothing, and the bonspiel only the cost of getting their publicity men and queen contestants there and back. Counting radio broadcasts of a Spokane station, one entire program being broadcast from the Nelson Civic Centre while bonspiel play was on, the value of this publicity was worth roughly-half what the city gave. "And what value could be placed upon Johft Fisher's nationwide broadcast last spring when he eulogized ■ the Nelion Summer Bonspiel? And finally, people might be interested to know that one drug company we contacted for one of the association's gimmicks, sent forward without question $191 worth of merchandise, So much for what we received. "Would ..it be of interest to people to know that the association gave the Nelson City Band $200; that it underwrote the Kootenay Kiltie Highland Games and Dances to the tune of $530 in order to get them in as part of the bonspiel and enlarge the bonspiel week in point of view of spectator appeal; that it gave the Nelson Curling club $200 for the use of its rocki, the first remuneration it has received in 12 years, and asked that if possible the money be used to make the waiting rooms a little more comfortable so the bonspiel guests and other visitors could enjoy themselves more, and that it gave $50 to the Nelson Garden club. "In the same writeup_ Mayor Kary raised the point of council representation at the association's 'meetings. The association would like to point out, that far from gelling representation at the meetings, except for a short space last year when Alderman T. H. Bourque was delegated to meet with us, only one member of the council and only one member of the commission has paid the $1 yearly fee to join our association. If the plea is that they did not know there was a fee to join, it is but another example of the type of spoon-feeding the bonspiel association has had to do to run this event year after year. "While the bonspiel associa tion would like to make clear that the above Is the opinion of Its members, it is willing to ad mit that its opinons could be wrong, and the council's attitude right — that we may be out of step with public opinion, In the event we are wrong the council should have no trouble finding a working organization to replace us. "However, as leaders in public thought and action it now behooves the council to take steps immediately to ensure the city, a bonspiel for next year. Victoria would dearly love to see Nelson out of the picture and several other cities would like a try at a summer bonspiel. Further the tourist publicity bureau is already requesting the date of the Nelson 'spiel for 1957. Time is running out. "In answer t6 the mayor's sug gestion that the association wait until the council's first meeting next year for request for additional grants, the association would like to point out that the increase in the number of entries at the last two summer bonsplels vas due to longer and mdre Intensive advertising and that wait \g for the 1957 council's decision and at least four of the present ouncil will be on again next year md apparently they think the :harge of $2400 is fair) would pre Council, Commission Feel Action Taken Too Hastily • Members of City Council, Nelson Recreation Commission and the Civic Centre Commission were asked to comment on the statement by the Midsummer Bonspiel Association Tuesday, that lt would suspend operations in view of Council's stand on arena and curling charges. The association has operated the bonspieUor three years. Prev iously, the.'spiel was run by a voluntary committee with assist ance and direction from members of the Curling Club, Civic Centre Commission and the City Council. Association executive is, W. W Wait, president; Albert Maida, vice-president; L. G. Peerles, secretary - treasurer; and George Barefoot, N. C. Stibbs, Mrs. O. G Maclntyre, ■ Art Waters, Jesse Seaby, Mrs. R. H. Bush, R. L. Bruce, Ernest McLachlan and O. C, Odegard, directors. Those asked to comment by The Daily News by telephone expressed regret at the decision of the association, and all expressed the hope that some way of keeping the bonspiel alive would be found Mayor Joseph Kary was "very sorry to hear of the decision," because he felt the bonspiel was an event of importance to the city, and'expressed the hope that others would step forward to see that it did not die. He said that while Council could not change its stand, which was that It could not commit next year's council to flnan cial support of the bonspiel, It had given the association assur ance that the support would be forthcoming without doubt . This assurance could be expected early in the n,ew year. He explained that under the Civic Centre Commission organization, the Civic budget is set out af the first of the year and the year's business must come to a close before com mitments for the next year could be made. Council had given $750 last year. Aid. Elizabeth Wallach. of the Recreation Commission said the bonspiel association nad done a tremendous amount of work and deserved much credit for what had been done, but she could not see how either Council or the Commission could make commitments before next year. The bonspiel group was doing a tremendous job of boosting the city, but others were doing the same and they would feel "just as Justified" In receiving special grants, She felt they should look for more help from the general public. Aid. Arthur Foster. Council finance chairman, recalled that $750 had been given them this year, a similar amount in 1955, and $1000 in 1954.

Firemen were called to 126 Chatham Street at 7:30 where ' a 1930 model car was reportedly engulfed in flames. Owner Colin Bunt of 1310 Front Street, attempting to start the car in preparation for its trip to the junk yard this morning, had poured gas into the car- buietor and it immediately burst Into flames—believed to have been ignited from a candle by which he was illuminating his mechanical corrections. Firemen extinguished the blaze with a 15-pound carbon dioxide extinguisher, Mr. Bunt thanked them and quipped: "I'll sell it to you for five bucks; that's what I paid for it." The firemen declined the offer. Fire Chief E. S.

Has Most To Offer Tourist, Chant States By STAFF REPORTER CRESTON — A feeling that B.C. has more to offer tourists than other parts of Canada was expressed by Hon. W. N. Chant, provincial minister of public works, at a banquet Monday night in Lhe Prince Charles High School here, Which concluded the ninth annual meeting of the Trans-Canada Highway Association (Crow's Nest Route), Substituting for Evan S. Jones, deputy minister of highways, who was unable to attend the meeting, Mr. Chant, a member of B.C.'s Social Credit government, said, "when we undertook the B.C. government, we found roads were needed all over." He also reminded the gathering of the split in public works duties, under which Hon. P. A. Gaglardi became minister of highways. Addressing a mixed audience of Alberta and B.C. residents, Mr. Chant said that, although he had lived in Alberta for 36 years, "the province of British Columbia is to me the better province." The minister said that much of his work was concerned with the constriction and maintenance of government buildings. He said it was impossible to find money to build the $30,000,000 or $40,000,000 worth of new buildings that have been sought from the government in the near future, but, "if you want a new building, we'll get around to it as soon as we can. At present four out of five public works dollars are being used for mental hospitals, jails, boys' and girls' homes, and similar types of accommodation. Delegates were urged to remember that, while the provincial budget "sounds like a lot of money," all of it is needed and being well spent in B.C. TWO PURPOSES Two main purposes must be kept in mind when planning or building roads, the minister, said, improvement of communications and importance to the tourist'industry. Tourists spent $90,000,000 in B.C. last lear alone, Mr. Chant .said, giving added voioe to the meeting's cry for better highway facilities to keep vacationers in Canada longer. He estimated that $10,000,000,000 would be needed for B.C. roads in the next 10 years, and looked forward to -greater prosperity which better roads would help to encourage. Referring briefly to the irou- bled International situation, Mr. Chant said self-preservation was a very Important consideration, and, "In the bottom of my heart, I don't think atomic weapons would be used. The human race has too ..much ..common sense to go out and destroy ourselves. Self-preservation will prevail," he thought. The minister also reported tfiat •h»sJ one example . . .

"Great strides have been made in the monetary systems of our western countries," and he continued that the Bank of Canada dictates national banking and finance policies. Mr. Chant urged prime consideration to needs of the home market. "Let us realize that development of the home market is most important and profitable," the minister concluded. Hon, Wesley D. Black, MLA for Nelson-Creston, provincial secretary, and minister of municipal affairs, cautioned members not to "lose sight of peaceful pursuits" in the midst of war talk. "There are times when we need to sit back and take a good look at ourselves." He thought success was possible "so long as we are content to work together for a common purpose. Speaking In thi school where he once taught, Mr, Black said the Creston-Snlmo road will be completed "as soon a. possible." There had been a good deal cf "kidding" about a suggested date for completion of the road, many thinking that It should be ready to help with the 1958 B.C Centennial festivities. Members were reminded that they "should be concerned about tho economic developments that should take place in this val ley," and start to "go out and sell what we have to sell." D. W. Taylor, president of the Creston Bqard of Trade, was chairman of the banquet. Rev. H. B. Knipe of Creston United Church offered grace. E. R. McFarland of Lethbridge said that, through "tremendous" government help, "I think we're getting somewhere." Good trans- Canada nighway connections provided an '^answer to keeping Canadians Canadian-wide conscious." In view of the possible world de. velopments, "we've got to be able to get across this country on four wheels in the immediate future." One of the foreseers of the Cres. ton-Salmo route, Frank Rotter, of the Salmo Chamber of Commerce, a B.C. director of the Association, told of seeing a possible Summit Lake route while on a timber cruising trip in 1949.

As delegate to the recent annual meeting of their local 180 at Vancouver, Mrs. Wakaluk and Mr. Ogden reported designation of their union had been changed with elimination of "Federal" from its title following merging of the l;wo Canadian labor councils. They also reported on union policies discussed at the provincial meeting and plans for the Interior, and for terms for renewal of the initial contracts in the area which are due January 1. The contract committee of the sub-local here is now drawing up its proposals for its term of renewal which will be presented soon to the St. Eugene Hospital board of management in preparation for opening of negotiations.

Union to Renew Talks With Coal Operators CALGARY (CP) - The policy committee of the ' United Mine Workers of America, District 18, met Tuesday to discuss new pto- posals to present to mine operators in the wake of a strike in seven of the eight coal mines in the Drumheller area. Edward Boyd, seoretary of the union, said the meeting was held to discuss the reopening of nego- Veteran Hunter Bags 800-Pound Bull Moose NATAL — With the big game hunting season now in its last month in the district, many species of big game have been brought in since the season opened in September. Mike Jacino, an oldtime hunter in the Michel district who retired from the mines only a few weeks ago after over 40 years service, showed his marksmanship at the age of 62 when he bagged an eight- point bull moose while hunting alone above the old No. 8 mine. The animal weighed over 800 pounds, while the trophy head contained antlers that measured 52 inches from point to point. Two years ago the same hunter shot a 11-point tjull moose while hunting in the-vicinity. Both sets of antlers are now proudly displayed above the doors on his garage at his home. The prized trophy would not be entered in the East Kootenay Big Game Trophy competition.

The nature of the new union proposals was not disclosed. W. C. Whittaker, managing director of the Coal Operators Association of Western Canada, said the meeting with union officials is simply a matter "of seeing whether we can agree," and added: "that should not take too long." . Mr, Whittaker said: "We should know by the end of the week whether or not we have a contract." About 1000 men walked off their jobs in the Drumheller district Sunday and Monday to back up union demands following a strike vote last Friday. Mr. Boyd said "the action of the membership in Drumiieller and East Coulee in unauthorized and unwarranted in view of the operators agreeing to reopen negotiations." The miners have not had a wage increase since 1953 when basic rates were set at $13,15 a day for miners and $12.27 for laborers. The Highways No. 3 — Cascade, Rossland — compact snow, carry chains.

He was 84 years old, and was the father of L. T. Nimsick of Kimberley Member of the Legislature for Cranbrook. Born at Eganville, Ont., he came west on railway construction in 1889 and followed woods and mining work. He was employed at the North Star mine at Kimberley and the St, Eugene mine at Moyie in 1898 and 1899, then moved to Rossland where he was a miner for many years, then operated a dairy business until retirement in 1939. He was an active member of the Western Federation of Miners, early day union, a member of the Knights of Columbus, and for 48 years belonged to Aerie 10, Fraternal Order of Eagles who conferred honors on him this year as third oldest member of Rossland aerie. He is survived by two sons, L. T. Nimsick at Kimberley, A. J. Nimsick at Drumheller, Alta., two daughters, Mrs. F. P. Spring, Cranbrook and Mrs. Edwin Johnson, Kimberley, 16 grandchildren and eight great - grandchildren. His wife died in 1931. Requiem mass was celebrated at Sacret Heart Church here by Mgr. A. K.

Other officers were named in Tuesday's paper, with the excep- iton of J. M. MacBeth of Castlegar, new secretary. One very unusual feature of the meeting, held in the Bus Depot, was a large model of the proposed "Y" turnoff at the Yahk junction, with an information booth in the centre, built by John Learmonth of Nelson. The present "T" arrangement constitutes a dangerous turn, and some motorists go right past it without realizing their mistake until they land at the Kings- gate customs office. If highway engineers consider this arrangement unsafe, the Association suggests that the booth, which need only be a small building, be built at the side of the junction to serve westbound traffic on No. 3 highway. Delegates did not feel that a booth proposed recently by the provincial government near the site would be acceptable. DEFEATED A resolution from one delegate that the government be urged to complete the Blueberry - Paulson road by 1958, B.C.'s centennial year, in order to provide an all- weather hard-surfaced highway to Alberta, was defeated because, as another member said, the Association didn't think it advisable to "pick out" part of the road. The mover of the resolution suggested that the Blueberry-Paulson cutoff is a "very, very important thing," and has been proved financially and physically possible. He also pointed out that^new Salmo-Creston cutoff could not possibly be finished by then, but other representatives thought there was no doubt the Blueberry-Paulson road would be ready to take full advantage of the centennial year tourist traffic. President McFarland was empowered to appoint ■ committee to advertise district roads. The executive will arrange financing of the advertising program. A Kimberley man told the meeting that the Moyie and other sections were completed last year, and that adequate junction connections will be made to Elko. A 27-minute film showing the beauties of the road was shown to several groups by the Kimberley Board of Trade to raise needed funds, and the board hopei to set up a film library. Tourists can now take scenic round trips through this area, coming up through Alberta and down through British Columbia, or vice-versa. With respect to the Yahk junction, he reminded the meeting of the B.C. government's "right-angle junction policy." The government also intends to put overpasses, underpasses, or signs at all highway railway crossings in the near future, he said. "There is, and will rt- main, an East Kootenay in British Columbia," the delegate eon- eluded.

They were employed as miners in Cominco's Tulsequah Chief Mine at Tulsequah, B.C., about 60 miles East of Juneau, Alaska. The accident occured at 2:30 a.m. Sunday. Mr. Ludwick was married. His wife, Edith Ludwick and two children live at Cochran, Ont. Mr. By Staff Reporter CRESTON—Theme of attracting American tourists to Canada, and keeping Canadian travellers in Canada as long as possible, permeated an address by Harold Long of Lethbridge, Alta., at a luncheon held following the morning session of the ninth annual meeting, Trans-Canada Highway Association (Crow's Nest Route) Monday in the Bus Depot here. Mr. Long, retired publisher of the Lethbridge Herald, was introduced by C. .W. Ramsden, general manager of the Nelson Daily News, and recalled meetings of the Old Red Trail'Association in the early 1900's. The speaker also remarked that construction of better roads in Alberta was started when farmers put barbed wire across trails about the time of the First World War. "WONDERFUL PROGRESS" "Today we are a little impatient because No. 3 highway is not completed," Mr. Long said, remarking that "wonderful progress" has been made during the last 10 years. He thought the highway might be completed between 1958 and 1960, and "now, of all times, is the time to build," referring to a suggestion at the Association's 1955 annual meeting in Lethbridge that the group should disband. People must be told about our, highways, he reminded the audience. Mr. Long thought that No. 3 highway would be completed many years before No. 1 highway KORPACK Cement Products Co. Ltd. AND FERRAR0 BROS. SAND AND GRAVEL * CONCRETE BLOCKS * CINDER BLOCKS * CHIMNEY BLOCKS SAND - GRAVEL - CEMENT 154 Wellington St. Trail, B.C. Phone 2105 is completed through the mountains. Reflecting on the Idea that better American highways are taking much of Canada's tourist income, Mr. Long said, "let's give them a chance to learn something about Canada, We want feeders for No. 3," he said, Instead of "bleeders" that might direct traffic across the line. The retired newspaperman also said that a closer connection between the western sides of Glacier and Waterton National Parks, "in order to give the world an idea of how two nations can live side by side in peace," would be another boost to tourist income. Of the 718,000 tourists who visited Glacier National Park this summer, 650,000 were in cars, and could easily have been directed towards Canada. Exploratory talks about the road were bogged down in the 1920s because the B.C. government refused to cede 50 to 75 miles of territory to Waterton National Park. The question is being brought up again. U.S. authorities estimate that, in just 10 years' time, they will be catering to' many more travellers than at present, and, "what better reservoir of tourists could we have than to provide a route for these people to get into Canada?" Mr. Long suggested that an 18- mile route could easily be provided from Waterton to connect with the present highway at Chief Mountain. Denis O'Connell, also of Lethbridge, showed a film of a pack trip which had been made over the 18-mile rou\e, giving some of the remarkalbe scenery that could be opened up to tourists. Construction of the route could be made easier by hard-surfacing a good logging road that presently covers part of the ground, Ms- Long said.

Wednesday, November 28, 1956 Time—and the Main Lake Ferry A correspondent writing to this newspaper says that he was a passenger on the Kootenay Lake ferry on October 27 when the ferry, which should.have sailed at 10 o'clock, was delayed 18 minutes for a rancher driving a light delivery truck containing two pigs. He goes on to say that the rancher probably did not realize that he was stealing the time, not only of every person aboard the ferry, but also of every person in the long line of cars waiting for the ferry on the other side of the lake. It certainly seems unreasonable that all those aboard the ferry should be kept waiting for a man with two pigs, unless perhaps they were expectant pig mothers and he was hurrying them home for the event, but when the writer talks of precious time, just what does that mean? In every day there are 1440 minutes, and 18 out of those is not many. No one can really steal time, for so long as we are alive it is ours. True, we often have it taken up by listening to people or doing things which we have no wish to do, but even that is not precious time. We emerge at the end with time with which we can do what we like and that with, often enough, we do nothing- Clocks, and particularly time clocks, are an invention of civilization and by no means its best effort. Punctuality is enforced on us, and the only ones who escape it are women and children, and these, if they are not counting the passing minutes, at least seem to enjoy them. Nor is punctuality always a blessing. That same ferry in December of the first year of the war pulled out from Kootenay Bay on its last trip for the day right on time. Minutes later the bus pulled to a stop and the soldiers on Christmas leave had the mortification of seeing it only a little way from shore and, what was worse, had to spend the cold dreary hours till six next morning huddled in the bus. Hours, not minutes, of their time was stolen from them by the-captain's punctuality. • What time means to us is largely a matter of circumstance and our attitude. Shakespeare's Touchstone said that with a rich man who did not have the gout it ambled gently along, but with a thief condemned to the gallows it went at a gallop, and in these days perhaps a better illustration is how long a holiday seems at its beginning and how short it seems when it is ended. Two Important Issues By DR. GORDON BATES General Director, Health League of Canada In an issue of "Health" there appeared the results of two polls carried out by the Canadian Institute of Public Opinion, commonly called the Gallup poll. The one has to do with the opinion of the Canadian publie about fluoridation of water, the other about the teaching of- French in primary schools. The results of both polls are significant. A majority of the Canadian public appear to believe both in billngualism and in fluorida- tion of water to prevent caries. We think that the results in both cases are in evidence of the intelligence of the average Canadian. We have talked so much about fluoridation that it Is unnecessary to add anything on that subject. Wheh lt comes to the question of bilingualism. we are reminded of the statement of a famous man who said In effect that the man who has two languages becomes two men. The man Business Co-operation A novel co-operation scheme has been launched by six small ship repair yards in and around the North Norway town of Harstad. Designed to enlarge their combined capacity, expand production, and stabilize employment through th,e slack winter months, the experiement has attracted wide attention. The Norwegian Productivity Institute has allotted Kr. 42,500 to carry out the plan, and the North Norway Development Fi,ind has granted another Kr. 30,000. Implementation of the project will be coordinated with the area planning in the province of Troms. With the aid of a consultant from tht Productivity Institute, the Harstad yards will shortly begin a comprehensive market analysis and draft detailed plans for their co-operation. What the owners have in mind Is to set up a joint office staff to handle purchases and warehousing, as well as to develop a joint sales organization. Production will be specialized with a view to subcontracting for each other. Other ideas include a cost-saving storage pool, and a manpower loan arrangement. —News of Norway. who speaks another language in addition to his nativs language immediately begins to understand those who speak the other language. What is equally important, this fellow who speaks the other language begins to understand him. A knowledge of French is essential for Canadian unity. It is desirable to make easier the spreading of essential knowledge on health and publie health throughout the world. The English speaking have much knowledge which may be of value to those who speak French. One has only to mention the name of the great Pasteur to realize how much the English have to learn from the French. The barrier of language as it has been called is a barrier which prevents the communication of ideas essential to the progress of civilization. At the moment, that barrier can only be abolished by the achieving of a second language. In Canada certainly for the English-speaking that second language is French. Policy First Need The resignation of Mr. George Drew from the leadership of the Conservative party necessitates a national convention to choose his successor. We suggest that the party has greater need of a new, well thought out policy than of a new leader. For the last quarter century, the party has been looking in all directions for a leader who cfiuld capture the public fancy, and has failed to find one. We are of the opinion that, if it had had a policy in which it really believed, and by which it was willing to sta'nd or fall, it would not have found it necessary to change leaders so often; and, perhaps it might have found a leader capable 6f giving it the leadership it needs. We don't envy any man the job of leading a party that has no common faith. And we don't think the Canadian people will support a party that has nothing but a leader to attract them.—The Rural Scene. ?Questions?

There are various causes for damp—such* as poor foundations, drainage seeping under the house—but mostly the lack of ventilation is to blame. It would be worth your while to ask a builder's advice. It is possible that the trouble can be easily prevented with small expense. Screened louvers in the basement can work wonders. Also condensation on walls may be prevented by special paints used In priming coats. Another cause can be absence of eaves troughs and downspouts. frequently resulting ln bespattered walls and watersoaked ground outside the walls.

'Tigs Is Pigs" Even on Ferries To the Editor; Sir—Your recent editorial page contained a letter from an irate, and possibly ulcerous, traveller, bemoaning the M.V. Anscomb having delayed its Kootenay Bay sailing time 18 minutes while waiting for a local rancher with two pigs. This is jUst one example of the consistent courtesy shown by the crews of the Kootenay Lake service, and which is generally appreciated by all. If the pigs were on the way to market it seems they would have the most reason to complain about the Anscomb sociability diminishing their time on earth. One of the pigs put.it in verse form (with background music from "Porky and Bess"): "HAMMUS KOOTENA1TUS"' Let there be no waiting on the shore When I put out to Balfour. It's short enough—my time on earth- While fattening up 3'our bacon's girth. My master phoned to the Anscomb's berth. And said he'd speed for all he's worth. The aaptain agreed to delay the sailing, Alas, alack! my poor life curtailing, Now—when looking at Christmas ham so merry. Remember—it may be me who held up the ferry. Boaringly yours — "PORKY". I think it splendid that the ferry waited fdr the pigs. It just proves that "every hog does have its day." B. E. LATREMOUILLE. R.R, No. 1. Nelson, B.C. Forgotten Person ..

Bundesen Although the death rate for simple acute appendicitis is extremely low (only 0.3 per cent), appendicitis still is dangerous for the very young and the very old. An appendectomy is a relatively simple operation. In the fiefd of medicine, we feel that we have a specific remedy for this disease in surgery. In both the elderly and the young, appendicitis carries an inordinately high risk because of vagueness of symptoms. In the aged, onset of the disease usually is insidious. The victim may fail to seek treatment promptly, either because of fear or because he is accustomed to discomfort. Also, his complaints of diarrhea and vague abdominal distress may give the appearance of a chronic illness. Young children, of course, usually can be little if any help to the physician trying to diagnose their ailment. Often it Is difficult to differentiate between symptoms of pneumonia and appendicitis In children. And sometimes the two diseases exist at the same time. There's one aid, though. As Dr. F. F. Boyce so aptly put it, "The child with pneumonia Is likely to sleep for long periods, while the child with acute appendicitis does not let himself or let anybody else sleep." Even though the usual symptoms of appendicitis may not be present in young or aged victims, it's a good idea for you to know those symptoms. LOCALIZED PAIN Generally a pain occurs in the middle of the abdomen. Soon it becomes a dull, severe and continuous pain localized in the lower right part of the abdomen. It's made worse by sneezing or coughing. Loss of appetite ie fairly common, as is sickness to the stomach There may be vomiting and a mild fever varying between 99 and 102 ! degrees. j When in doubt, call the doctor | Never try to diagnose the ease ' yourself. PHONE 1844 F.OR CLASSIFIED work of Gordon Sutherland was greatly appreciated, the small hall being completed, and the large hall nearly finished. A letter of thanks will accompany his cheque. She said she appreciated the help given by Miss Martin in matching the curtains which are being made by Mrs, Colman and will be hung as soon as possible. New glasses, pots and mats, and other articles, had been added to he kitchen equipment; and all dishes have been checked. The kitchen will be carefully supervised, and&all broken dishes will have to be replaced by those responsible, Mrs. W. H. Burns, acting as sergeant at arms, reported for Miss Evelyn Forbes on hospital visiting, Mrs, Colman and Mrs, W. n. Gibbon had made 126 visits and distributed 98 treats. Mrs. P. T. Filleul and Mrs. R, Kellogg will be In charge of hospital visiting for December. Hospital Auxiliary representative Mrs. G) E. Thompson reported having served at the tea and having sold tickets. A booster prize was won by Mrs. Burns. ' Correspondence read by Mrs. Irene Kerr included Christmas greetings from Mrs. Bingham of the Fraser Valley District, and in formation regarding a former Auxiliary member who "is in hospital there. The members there take care of funds allotted by the Nelson auxiliary for comforts in this case. A letter from the zone secretary Mrs. Tonkin of Kaslo regarding Nelson's donation to the zone typewriter, thanked ^he auxiliary. Minutes of the executive meeting of the B.C. Command LAS meeting at Chilliwack October 26, were read. Sixty-four official and 50 fraternal delegates attended. Points noted were that the word sovereign" had been adopted in many instances in place of the King or Queen, and that the fee would be raised. Minutes of the zone meeting held at Fruitvale in October were read, and Mrs. Brown read resolutions and comments made at the B.C. Command executive meeting. It seemed that the solution to a number of _ allowance problems was a national health plan. Some welfare work undertaken by the executive was mentioned, and further work is to be done. Cook book prepared by the Auxiliary will be back from the printers soon, Mrs. Steve Cameron informed members. Two hundred had been ordered. Poppy Day was a great suooess, due to a great extent to untiring efforts of Mrs. Len Bicknell, general convener. The secretary was instructed to write a letter of thanks to her. Mrs. Brown thanked all those who worked on the streets, in the kitchen and on the tables. YULE HAMPERS Mrs. Gray and Mrs. C. O. Anderson will be in charge of.,Christ- mas hampers, and Mrs. Brown asked for names of the needy to be submitted soon. A nominating committee of Mrs. C. O.

Itttd The Hon. Treffle Berthiaume Montreal did not yet number a hundred thousand people—with len than a thousand telephones—when Treffle' Berthiaume took over La Presse", ln 1889. Founded five years earlier, the paper waa in shaky financial condition, with only fourteen thousand subscribers and little paid advertising. Its owners, business. and newspaper men, were financially unable to support it. Faced with an obvioualy insoluble situation, they decided to offer "La Prtsae", lock, stock and barrel, as a gift to the young man of "La Minerve", an influential weekly of the time—provided he assumed the indebtedness of the sick paper. Berthiaume accepted the challenge. Bom at St. Hughes de Bagot on August 4th, 1848, he was originally a typographer by trade. Haid working, a keen student of mass psychology, he gathered around him a few of his fellpw workers at "La Minerve and fell courageously to his task of reviving a moribund paper. To him the job was truly a personal challenge. For an ordinary craftsman to succeed where practised business men and renowned newspaper men had failed, such was the task facing him. Enough to whip the ambition of an energetic man of forty! Treffle' Berthieume's perseverance, judgment and capacity for work swept all obstacles before him. Under his inspired guidance, the circulation of "La Presse" rose to 20,000 in less than two years, then to 60,000, and to 100,000 at the turn of the century. No Canadian daily had ever reached such heights. For more than forty years, "La Presse" was to retain its circulation supremacy in Canada. One of the secrets of Mr. Berthiaume's success was that he surrounded himself with able men to whom he gave his full confidence and warm friendship. Deeply human, he knew how to ensure the co-operation and loyalty of his fellow workers. Thus within a few years, it had become obvious that "La Presse" not only would survive, but would prosper. Mr. Berthiaume had reason to be proud of bis accomplishments and of his financial success. "La Presse" was born on Notre Dame Street East, next door to the Chateau de Hamezay, since then converted into an historical museum. It subsequently moved to St. James Street, near St. Lawrence Boulevard. In 1898, Mr. Berthiaume decided on the construction of a new, red stone building, at the corner of the two streets mentioned. Inaugurated in 1900, it still houses "La Presse". To the growing influence of the paper, its owner added his personal one in the field of public opinion, when he was appointed to the Quebec Upper House to represent the Alma circumscription. Under {he guiding hand of the Hon. Mr. Berthiaume, the paper increasingly became the favorite daily of the French-speaking population in Canada as well as in areas such as New England, where many French Canadians had emigrated. On his death, on January 2,1915, Treffle Berthiaume left to his children and grand-children tne largest French daily newspaper in North America, which he had taken over almost on the verge of bankruptcy and lifted to the very summit of success. "La Presse" did honor not only to the French-speaking people of Canada but to the French language press the world over. Mr. Berthiaume's distinguished successors have been worthy of the founder, and "La Presse" today still leads the French language press in Canada.

Restrictive Trade Commission Reports on Tobacco Marketing OTTAWA (CP)—The Restrictive Trade Practices Commission, in a 2-to-l majority report, has suggested the Ontario Flue-Cured Tobacco Marketing Association be turned into a growers' co-operative to ease the rigidity of its control over the industry. The association, , through its membership of all tobacco buyers and most of the growers, is working under arrangements which contemplate the actual closing of the market to all except association members, the commission said. Its 148-page report, developing out of allegations by combines investigator T. D. MacDonald, was tabled in the Cornmons Tuesday by Justice Minister Garson. RESTRAINT ALLEGED Mr, MacDonald alleged the association restrained and injured trade contrary to public interest. It had worked to reduce production and competition in sales, to deny membership tb some prospective growers and to deny non- member growers an opportunity for early sale of their crops.

The third member, Guy Ro- berge, said he agreed the association had lessened competition, but in doing so it had followed closely public policy. Ontario produces about 95 per cent of Canada's' flue-cured crop. In the 1944-55 period, the proportion of the Ontario crop grown by association members ranged from 90 to 99 per cent.

Addressing Vancouver Woman's School for Citizenship, the head of University of British Columbia's College of Education said; "What some pepole think is mads education is not much more than mass information — a kind of instructional information put over to large numbers. It is not the same as education." ■ Dean Scarfe said education — the business of stimulating thinking — begins after information has been supplied. "Real education requires a teacher and small groups," he said. "It does not mean however that the teacher cannot be helped by means of mass information. "It helps more people to know more things quickly; facts, reports, information, news. "If however you try to indoctrinate and propagandize people so they all think, feel and behave alike you are killing education, It is shutting people's minds rather than opening them. It would be ruin." If people don't think for themselves, he said, they are "gullible dupes" conforming people who believe everything they read. — printed in our Laura Wheeler Needlecraft book for 19561 Dozeni of other new designs to order — crochet knitting, embroidery, iron-ons, novelties.

Burnie, Manager Nelson Branch Bank of Montreal Every time I read one of my bank's annual report) I am reminded of the days when I was a junior wilh the Bank in a town very much like thi,s. The branch manager had that wonderful knack of seeing things from more than one point of view. He could take the Bank's annual report, and show how It tied in with the day-to-day business of our own branch and of our community. "Conditions here on Main Street," he would say, "are reflected in the overall picture of the country's prosperity, because, after all's said and done, Canada is the sum-total of hundreds of Main Streets like this." "The folks who buy and sell on Main Street — and that includes all of us in this bank — are the same kind of people — multiplied over and over — who set the patterns of our progress clear across the country." So it is with the Bank of Montreal's 139th annual report, for the year ended October 31st, 1956.

Marciano kayoed Moore ln the ninth round of their heavyweight title fight 14 months ago. Rocky's retirement now has brought about a unique situation that will make boxing history. By defeating 21-year-old Floyd Patterson at Chicago Stadium Fri day night, Moore can become the oldest man ever to wear the heavy weight "crown and the first light heavyweight champion to gain it, Patterson, by winning, can become the youngest titleholder and the first Olympic champion to take it. "I'm a Moore man," says Sam Pian, who helped pilot Tony Zle to the middleweight championship. "But the thing I'm thinking about is how much, ii anything, did Marciano take out of Moore. "When Marciano polished off a man he kept haunting them. You never hear of his victims any more. He took care of Jersey Joe Walcott, Roland LaStarza, Rex Layne, Ezzard Charles and Don Cockell. Did he take care of Moore? Maybe we'll find out Friday."

MONTREAL (CP) — A British newspaper man whose specialty is on-the-spot study of industry and economy says he feels Canada has a great opportunity to help in Commonwealth development. Ronald F. Avery, industrial editor of the New Commonwealth a London quarterly, has just completed a five-week trip throughout Canada. He travelled 15,000 miles, visiting main industrial centres from the Maritimes to Kitimat and Whitehorse. What he saw and heard convinced . him that the Canadian economy "is like the launching of a gigantic operation." BIQGER SHARE "At the rate of the Canadian economic development, the time iwhen Canada can share more of j Britain's traditional role of f inanc- ! ing Commonwealth development may not be far off," he said in an j interview, "The requirements of manpower jby Canada and Britain are the isame. They both need scientists i and specialists in various categories. One solution to the scarcity might be the development of more Anglo - Canadian exchanges of management and 'technological teams, both in production and ! marketing fields." I Mr. Avery found Canada "a j country of five nations—the Mari- | times, Quebec, the Prairies, Brit- ' ish Columbia and the north." The 'only obstacles to developing the Natal Show Aids Springhill Miners NATAL — A film showing here brought proceeds of $66.35. which will be sent in aid of the Springhill miners in Nova Scotia who suffered in the recent mine disaster. Mr. and Mrs. Leon Henriet of Sparwood, who operate the only show in the vicinity, co-operated in the money-raising venture. Dropped Match Said Cause of Big Fire VANCOUVER (CP) — Fire officials said Tuesday a three-alarm fire which swept through a dozen suites of a four-storey apartment block Sunday was started by a teen-age boy. He dropped a lighted match while looking for magazines in the basement, said Chief Fire Warden Louis Mulligan. The boy, not a tenant, fled whence accidentally dropped the match but returned to give the alarm. north were communications and manpower, and both were steadily being overcome. Record Loans Reported In Bank Statement MONTREAL —. Shareholders' funds were enlarged by the addition of $6,500,000 to the rest ac count or reserve fund, the Bank of Montreal's annual statement reveals, A. R. Burnie, Nelson manager, said Tuesday. Earnings, likewise, increased moderately. Total resources, however, are at a slightly lower figure — $2,783 million compared with $2,796 million in. 1955. Quickly available resources, at $1,427 million, represent 54 per cent of all public liabilities. Government and other public securities, not exceeding market value, stand at $916 million — a contraction of $298 million from the 1955 level. Total loans rose by $325 million to reach the record figure of $1,- 383 million, representing an increase of 30 per cent. The enlargement in loans is to be seen in all .categories, with the amount of NHA mortgage loans increasing 100 per cent since 1955. Total deposits are almost unchanged from the 1955 level, which was the highest :.. the bank's history at $2,591 million. The 1956 figure is $2,589 million, more than half of which is the personal savings of individuals. Earnings for the year, after provision for taxes at $7,795,000, amounted to $8,975,940 — up $933,- 794 from a year ago. The bank had a balance at the end of its fiscal year, October 31, of $6,910,155. from which it made a transfer of $6,500,000 to the rest account, or reserve fund, leaving the final figure of undivided profits at $410,155.

Keswick, governor of the world's oldest trading company. For, the occasion an extraordinary general court was sum^ moned by the Governor and Company of Adventurers of England trading into Hudson's Bay. Forty of ihe company's 15,750 "proprietors" attended. P. A. Chester, managing director, came from Winnipeg to sit with other directors. '. BRIEF MEETING The court lasted less than 15 minutes. "I apologize for the boredom of thi£," said Keswick, as he moved the adoption of 13 resolutions—all accepted without question by the few proprietors who turned out for the meeting. The main purpose of the changes is to increase the membership of the board of directors from nine to 14. This will permit members of the Canadian committee to join the board, thus changing their status into a Cana- dian committee of the board. Under the present charter, the Canadian committee members do not necessarily have to be direct-, ors. Only two -are directors at the moment. PHONI 1S44 FOR OLAS8JIMID Odds... «** Ends ...byU. D. B. I. notice a B.C. town ia rebuilding a heavily travelled road by "punching shale into the old surface with a spiked roller:" This I found quite interesting, for the road was reported improved after the treatment. I was thinking about the scar down Cottonwood Street where the school storm sewer was laid, and wondered If this treatment might help there. During the summer heat the patched area got decidedly soft and rippled badly — apparently because there was too much tar and not enough crushed rock in the mix used to fill it in. Perhaps finely crushed rock rolled into this soft surface would enable the patch to be smoothed out level with the rest of the street. • • • I read somewhere recently that someone or other was arrested for using foul language in a public place, and I cried, "Bravo," for such action is long past due. I speak with my ears still hot frdm hearing such things as vain use of the Lord's name in some of Nelson's restaurants and snatches of vulgar conversation on Baker Street. . . a When you hear a nondescript waitress saying to a besideburned character, "Gechur mindoutatha gutter," you begin to wonder what sort of a dive you have managed to get into. This is mild compared to some of the profanity with which your- ears are assaulted in some of these "hash houses." Not all Nelson's restaurants are in this category, but some of them would certainly leave a nasty taste in a tourist's mouth to say nothing of the regular citizens. • • ■ What I would like to know is why we have to put up with such places, why must you sit down at a dirty table because the waitress has not bothered to wipe it ofi after she has cleared it and then not wipe it off half the time unless you ask her. I know these places are regularly inspected by the health inspector but surely there should be standards of service in these places as well. • a a I know I can expect arsenic m my coffee tomorrow after this tirade, but at lekt I got It ofl my chest. Marooned Hunters Rescued At Coast VANCOUVER (CP)—Two Vancouver ' hunters, marooned since last Saturday when their small cabin cruiser burned to the water line, were rescued early Tuesday from the mainland northwest of Anvil Island, about 50 miles northwest of here. Ted Beatty, 31, and Norman Kirby, 31, were found asleep in a small tent on the rocky shoreline after a tugboat skipper spotted their signal fire. The men were rescued by the tug Kirsten A. under Capt. Larry Gisbourne of Vancouver. Capt. Gisbourne, in a radio report back to the RCAF search centre here, said: "Their boat was just a shell." The signal fire was sighted by Captain Don Berven of the tug Randy. He was unable to leave the barge he was towing and notified Point Grey radio station Which relayed the message to the Kirsten A. Hospital Railway Car Heads North WINNIPEG (CP) — A railway car fitted up as a nursing station, the only one of its kind in Canada, again has headed north with the Churchill train to serve residents along 350 miles of the Hudson Bay Railway. It was here for repairs. The Red Cross nursing services car has been in operation since 1953, working in the area between Cormorant and Gillam in the remote wilderness of Northern Manitoba. In that time 712 children have ' been examined at school, 1230 patients have been visited at home and another 2392 have visited the car for treatment or advice.

The two naval officers made an emergency landing In tbe sandhills near Brownlee, Nebraska, 140 miles from their take-off point, when the aluminum gondola suspended from the balloon hegan to spin out of control and continued to rise. They were picked up by a navy helicopter which had tracked the "space laboratory" balloon during Its four- hour trip. The flight was aimed at getting data to Improve flying safety at high altitude rather than to attempt a record. —Central Press Canadian. Howard Green'Defends Anglo-French Tactics OTTAWA (CP)—A veteran Progressive Conservative said Tuesday no two countries have done so much to preserve the democratic way of life as Britain and France, yet they found themselves treated as "aggressors" by Canada Howard Green, Vancouver Quadra, .said in the Commons that Britain and France have never been aggressors. And they were not aggressors when they moved into Egypt. "Yet the prime minister has the effrontery to compare British and French Middle East action with the action ot Russia in Hungary." Big Program By Bell Telephone TORONTO (CP) — Bell Telephone Company of Canada plans to spend $170,000,000 on its 1957 construction program—the largest year's program in its history Thomas W. Eadie, the company's president, said Tuesday night in an address to the Toronto Junior Board of Trade.

He said heatedly that Mr. Green's statement was a flagrant "misconstruction" of what he had said in the debate Monday night. GREEN—P.M. TANGLE Mr. Green retorted that Mr. St. Laurent's statement was obviously aimed at "cutting off free discussion." For 10 years Canada curried favor with the United States. The government was "the U.S. chore boy." If Mr. St. Laurent wanted to visit DEW (distant early warn- ing) radar line sites in Northern Canada he would have to get Washington clearance. Mr. St. Laurent interjected: "The honorable gentleman knows that is absolutely false." "The prime minister is in the same kindly Uncle Louis mood that he was in last night," Mr. Green remarked, referring to Mr. St. Laurent's speech Monday. Mr. St. Laurent again stood up but his words were drowned out and he sat down as Mr. Green laughed and flapped his arms in mock distress. Later External Affairs Minister Pearson said the situation "is far too serious to be dealt wth from a purely partisn point of view." But he took a crack back at Mi'. Green and said the government never has and never will play the role of U.S. chore boy, and added: "It's equally bad to be a colonial chore boy running around shouting: 'Ready, aye, ready'." That brought thunderous desk- banging from Liberal members. GREEN CRITICAL a Russian buildup of arms in the Mr. Green said there had been Middle East long before the Egyptian-Israeli action flared up. Now it came out that the Russians also were building up arms in Syria. Britain' and France had a "perfect right" to occupy the Suez Canal zone when the canal was threatened. "The prime minister's whole attitude toward Egypt has been unbelievably soft." The man ln the street was asking why Canada led in "the attack on her friends." Mr. St. Laurent retorted that Mr. Green was imagining many things which never took place.

Immigration Minister Pickersgiil said Tuesday. Heplying to a Commons question by Gordon K. Fraser (PC- Peterborough), he said taking of tuberculosis X-rays will not be allowed to delay acceptance of Hungarians. If there was time, the X-rayl would be taken overseas.

Says Bank Action Not Responsible For Interest Hike OTTAWA (CP)—Finance Minister Harris said Tuesday he wanti to dispel any impression the Bank of Canada consciously raised interest rates in this country. It was not through action by the central bank that interest rates have risen, he said, but as a result of a greater demand on Canada's money supply. The Bank of Canada rate only reflected interest rates generally. Replying in the Commons to questions from several opposition members, Mr. Harris said it is Bank of Canada policy not to have its interest rate lower than that for short-term borrowings by the federal government from tha chartered banks and other financial institutions.
