Russ Warns Against
Arming W. Germans
With A-Weapons
By HERB ALTSCHULL
BONN (AP) — Russia drove a new note of urgency
Sunday into the war of words between Moscow and Bonn
with a fresh warning against arming West German troops
with atomic weapons.
To equip West German soldiers with A-weapons, the
Soviet Union said, would lead to "grave consequences."
The Bonn government labelled the Soviet message
"unsatisfactory" and said the Soviet Union would better
serve the cause of disarmament rather than by continuing
to threaten the Western allies.
The new message, as the others,
recently dispatched by Moscow,
appeared aimed—at least in part
—at thwarting Chancellor Konrad
Adenauer's bid for re-election in
September,. Adenauer is clearly in
trouble over the atomic issue and
the Soviet Union appears ready to

give him no rest.

Free Speech
Threatened
-Diefenbaker
By ALAN DONNELLY
Canadian  Press  Staff Writer
CAMPBELLTON, N. B. (CP). -
John Diefenbaker says free
speech is endangered by the present relationship between the CBC
and privately - owned broadcasting stations.
In a whistle - stop swing along
New Brunswick's north shore Saturday he said at Moncton that a
Progressive Conservative • government would set up an independent
body to adjudicate in disputes between the publicly-owned corporation and private stations.
"Freedom of the individual to
think and hear- is endangered"
by allowing the CBC to be the
judge in such disputes, the party
leader said.
YOUTHS CHARGED
IN JODOIN DEATH
OTTAWA (CP) — Charges of
manslaughter have been laid by
police against four youths—two
of them juveniles—in the death
of 17-year-old Rene Jodoin, fatally kicked and beaten in a teenagers street fight that erupted
from a church dance in West
central Ottawa Friday night.

enauer's prestige. But in some
quarters there were cautious predictions the whole thing might
boomerang. . .
The Opposition Socialists kept
up a steady drumfire of attack
against the conference and Adenauer. They call the NATO session a "fiasco," asasiled the
sion a "fiasco," assailed the
weapons as a major deterrent
and declared nothing was done
to solve the German reunification problem.
The new Russian note was a
polite one. It was delivered Saturday while Adenauer was confer-
ing with U.S. State Secretary
Dulles. Its contents were disclosed In a Moscow radio broadcast Sunday.
FACING DILEMMA    .
In a hotly-worded message sent
to Soviet Ambassador Andrei
Smirnov last week Adenauer com:
plained the ambassador failed to
inform the Kremlin about a. personal meeting in which, Adenauer
said he pointedly advised Smirnov West Germany has no atomic
weapons and hasn't asked for
them.
In the new note, Smirnov replied that at that meeting Adoji-
auer had not "made any statements to the effect" that West
Germany does no Intend to arm
itself with atomic weapons "or
allow the stationing of foreign
troops equipped with atomic
weapons in its territory."
The next step is up to Adenauer

On the one hand, he has committed himself to a course of full
agreement with the Western allies
who decided at the NATO council
meeting to use "all available
weapons," including nuclear arms,
to counter any Soviet attack.
But at the same time, he has
shown himself unwilling to risk
his political future on the atomic
issue for fear, informants said, of
a public uprising against A-
weapon stockpiling.
Hees Expects Liberals
To Choose New Leader
LINDSAY, Ont. (CP) - George
Hees, former Progressive Conservative association president, said
Saturday night a Liberal convention will follow shortly on the June
10 federal election to choose a successor to Prime Minister St. Laurent.
'.'At the present time," he told a
Victoria riding Conservative association n o m i nating convention,
"the Liberal party is planning for
two important events — the election on June 10 and the convention
to choose a new leader, which will
follow shortly afterward."
The Commons member for Tor-
onto-Broadview said Prime Minister St. Laurent at 75 has made no
secret to his friends of the fact that
„|ie tajwwanted to retire for some
'time Ironj active public life and
that this \yfll,be his last election.
a "And so;4n presenting itself to
-the people as a party which will
he led in the future by Mr. St.
Laurent, the Liberal party is deliberately misleading the people."
At a recent press conference in
Ottawa" Mr. St. Laurent told reporters it was his present intention to continue as nrime minister
for another Parliament if his government re-elected and his health
permits.
HARRIS, PEARSON CITED
Mr. Hees said until recently Finance Minister Harris "held the
edge" as Mr. St. Laurent's successor. But in the' late days of the
last session the prime, minister had
gone out of his way to list the qualification of External Affairs Minister Pearson.
"There it probably would have
rested if it had not been for the
Norman affair," Mr. Hees said.
"Mr. Pearson's misleading of the
House and the country and his
whole handling of this sorry business, has lost him much support
from the prime minister, his colleagues and the public generally.'
Mr. Hees said those who vote
Conservative June 10 wijl- be voting for a party that will be led by
party chief John Diefenbaker "for
many years to come."

LONDON (AP) — Prime Minister Macmillan is considering a
visit to Moscow this Fall, reliable
political sources said Sunday.
Before engaging in any talks
with the Soviet. leadership, .however, he was said to be determined to go ahead with British H-
bomb. tests in the Pacific — now
fixed for about June 15—and to

Young lovers Reunited
GRANBY, Que. (CP)—Gus and Carrie met at sea, on their
way from Amsterdam to zoos in New York and Granby.
Everybody thought it was just a rountine chimpanzee shipboard romance. Then came the parting.
Gus clung to Carrie. He was going to Granby zoo. She was
headed for the United States. The keepers were admant. After
all, they figured, it couldn't be too serious. Neither Gut nor Carrie
was a day over 18 months.
When Gus arrived in Canada, he wouldn't'eat. He wouldn't
even make friends. In New York Carrie was the same.
Gus wanted Carrie. Carrie wanted Gus.
Finally Granby zoo and New York zoo official got together by
telephone and compared notes. They agreed you can't fight nature.
Ten days ago Carrie arrived at Granby. Gus woke up in his
corner and did six handsprings to welcome her. The other animals
watched in the spring sunshine as chief veterinarian Noel Brousseau
moved the two young chimps into a big cage.
Then he hiing up a new sign that announced "Gustavus and

London Greets
Canadian Tenor
LONDON (CP) - The Times
says the performance of a .Canadian tenor has been so outstand-
that Covent Garden Opera
producers might almost consider
giving Bizet's Carmen a.new title
—Don Jose.
Reviewing Friday night's per-
| formance of the opera at the
Royal Opera House, the Times
says tenor Jon Vickers of Prince
Albert, Sask., played the part of
Don Jose with "so much force of
personality,. persuasion and
strength of tone" that the balance
of power in the opera was "turned
topsy-turvy."
"It was exciting to hear this
music, sung heroically for
change instead of lyrically, and
even his. occasional hardening of
his tone and odd lapse of refill:
ment in his- phrasing here and
there could be; forgiven in a performance so rich in vocal -promise as also in dramatic achievement."     ■   ■',
send their children to school.
A sect of the Russian Orthodox
Church, the Doukhobors came to
Canada at the end of the 19th'century to escape Czarist persecution.
Now the Frcedomites, a radical
splinter group, are trying to lead
a movement back to Russia.
The Doukhobors have talked of
moving almost from the day they
arrived in Canada.
Nothing came of the plans ol
John Lebedoff, secretary of •the
Freedomites in July, 1949, to lead
his followers back to Russia or to
Turkey.
CLAIM NO FREEDOM     '
The newest proposal to move
was reported Saturday in the Vancouver Province and later confirmed by Nick Kanigan of Winlaw, who was called by the Nelson
Daily News.
."We want a Russian observer
to come here and help us with the
children's situation," Mr. Kanigan
said. "We would like to send
delegation to Russia to see if it is
possible to go back and investigate
conditions there."
MORE MIGHT LEAVE
Mr. Kanigan said 2500 Freedomites are ready to go to Russia
any time, but he added: "I think
double that number would go if
they could."
Mr. Kanigan is one of five delegates of the sect who will go to
Russia to look into conditions if
the Soviet Union gives permission.
He was the only proposed delegate
who could be reached for comment
on the- Vancouver report.
He gave' this reason for the
-present unrest: •'
"It's hard living here in Canada.
When we came, we, were promised
freedom of religion. We don't .feel
we're getting it so it's not worth
while staying. We should go sor*e-
where where freedom is assured."
The Freedomites are a minority
group—4000 or 5000—out of an estimated Doukhobor population in
B. C. of 10,000 or more,
Bruce Larsen, city editor of the
Province, wrote that it is claimed
the decision to return to Russia
was prompted by the,forced detention of more than 100 Free-
domite children in a special institution at New Denver because
their parents refused to send them
lo school.
However, the actual move-to-
Russia spark probably was kindled
elsewhere. Much credit should go
to the Communist propaganda machine, the Province says.
"The pro-Communist newspaper
Vestnik, published in Russian language in Toronto, in recent weeks
has lavished sympathy on the
Freedomites who have children detained in New Denver. Soon the
Freedomites were observing that
'perhaps only Communists are interested in getting our children
back to us.
The Province says that on March

WASHINGTON (AP) - The
United States probably could hit
Russia swiftly with more than' 2,-
000,000,000 ton of nuclear explosive
force if the Russians attempted an
attack on Western European
nations before those countries
build their own atomic defenses.
Russia must reckon with this
probability in pursuing what the
North Atlantic Council describes
as a campaign "to ensure for Soviet forces a monopoly of nuclear
weapons on the European Continent."
Moscow has been bombarding
the Atlantic alliance nations with
warnings about dire risks they run
if they harbor atomic weapon sites
in their territory. The foreign ministers,of the North Atlantic Council, in session at Bonn, Germany,
Friday, asserted that "it' is the
availability of the most modern
weapons of defence which will discourage attempts" to launch attack on the alliance.
WEAPONS AVAILABLE
There weapons are available
"iw in the nuclear firepower, of the
United States Air Force, Navy and
Army. The precise figures used
the American military officials in
their estimate of United States
capability are, of course, secret.
But these guidelines may be assumed:
The measurement of effective
nuclear power now is defined in
terms of delivery of hydrogen and
fission explosive. The stockpile and
production capability for bombs is
substantially greater than the
means of delivery by aircraft, missiles or atomic-firing guns.
The USAF probably has at this
time about 1800 aircraft capable
of handling H-bombs or A-bombs,
plus several hundred naval aircraft. ,
If all these plans could be
counted upon to get through to target on their missions, the amount
of -nuclear explosive delivered
would be several times the 2,000.
000,000 tons of force estimated as
realistic.
The 1500 to 1700 heavy and medium bombers of the Strategic Air
Command—B-52s, B-36s and B-47s
—compose the primary "deterrent'* force. In addition there are
the jet bombers of the tacticaj air
command, including the B-57 ind
F-84 jet fighter - bombers. Both
these planes have nuclear capability.
20, a lengthy Vestnik article "poured on the sympathy over the plight
of children at New Denver. It also
stressed the suggestion that, some
unknown hand in Canada is ready
and anxious to liquidate not only
the Sons but all oilier Doukhobors
as well. The author never explained what he meant by the unknown
hand."
In the main, however, the move
will Involve only the pacifist Free-
domites, the Province says. "The
majority of B. C. Doukhobors are
members of the Orthodox or Independent groups—strong, stable
citizens with no love for Communism or the Soviet state."
Doukhobors  in  B.  C.  number
about 12,000 altogether.
MOSCOW RADIO
HEARD \'
In East- Germany, the Province
says, the "committee that sponsors the return of Russian people
home"—Za VozVrashenya na Ro
dinu-Berlin—"has been sending
regular shipments of literature to
the Sons of Freedom "informing
everybody of the changes in the
homeland."
In Russia, "Radio Moscow's
voice has reached the Kootenays
and Freedomite spokesmen have
accepted these messages: 'as. a
special invitation for Doukhobors
to return home.' "
The Province says:, "There's no
evidence that the Freedomites. intended their application as an instrument for publicity to gain sympathy for the New Denver children. As publicity strategists,. the
Freedomites have always managed
quite well. They know it's federal
election time. They've been chewing the application over.for one
month. They've kept their deliberations secret. That's why observers feel they are resolulte.1
The exodus would "bring an
abrupt end to a problem that Canada and B. C. have'never solved
and which has cost the country
millions of dollars — bombings,
fires, nude parades, court and prison costs, guards, probes and re
search."
FIRST APPEAL APRIL 17
The Province says the Sons
made their first official appeal
to the Soviet government through
the Russian Embassy in,Ottawa.
It went April 17 over the signatures of two Krestova Sect' members, Peter W. Elasoff and John
J. Kooznetsoff.
"A further communication went
to the Soviet ambassador after
meetings within the past two
weeks." There have been "strong
rumors" that the Soviet Union will
accept the Doukhobors.
Five Doukhobor delegates will
go to Russia if and when the Soviet gives the green light. They
are John Chernoff of Grand Forks:
B.C., Nick Kanigan of Winlaw,
Bill Babakieff of Thrums, Mrs.
George Popoff of Winla*w and one
other woman.
In their appeal to Russia, the
Freedomites said that "living
in the capitalistic system in Canada they did not have freedom to
practise their religious beliefs,
One of British Columbia's most
respected Doukhobor observers
said Saturday it is his view that
Sons of Freedom "would certainly
not receive exemption from military service in Russia."
Col. F. J. Mead, retired deputy
commissioner of the RCMP and
the federal government's observer
on Doukhobor problems in recent
years, commented on reports that
the Freedomites want to go back
to Russia: "I hope the Sons of
Freedom realize what they are
doing."
He said that Stefan S. Sorokin,
the Freedomites' spiritual leader,
"has warned them many times to
beware of Communist, promises."
Col. Mead added: "He received
some rough treatment at the
hands of the NKVD (Soviet secret
police) before he was able to get
out of Russia."
Asked if he thought Russia
might grant the Freedomites' request for domicile, Col. Mead
said: "It is hard to say but' it is
my view that they certainly would
receive no exemptions from serving in the Russian arrned forces
like all Soviet citizens."

STOCKHOLM (AP) - A- young
London jazz pianist proposed to
Swedish Princess Margaretha but
was rejected by her family, a
spokesman fory'the Swedish palace
said Sunday night.
The princess' mother, Princess
Sibylla, wrote to the suitor, Robin
Bouglas-Home, that such a marriage is "unthinkable." Count
Carl-Reinhold'von Essen said.
The count; master of the royal
household, told reporters the matter was finished more than a
month ago.
He described it as "an innocent
little affair between two young
people such as so often occurs."
A marriage between Margaretha, 22,.and Douglas - Home,

circumstances of the suitor, von
Essen added. - -

MILAN, Italy (Reuters) — A court has ruled that a husband is
not guilty of abandoning his wife if he builds a wall through the
middle of his home and lives on the other side of.it.
The court rejected charges brought by a Milanese wife that her

"He didn't leave entirely," she said. "He built a wall in bur
apartment and lived behind it."
The husband told the court that his wife .terrorized him. "She

DUDLEY, England (AP) — The Westwoods have sent a petition

who haunt their home. They describe the ghost leader as a "high-
spirited, devil-may-care, Victorian blonde."
Itwasn't clear just what the Westwoods expect the Queen to do.
Four years ago Mr. and Mrs. Edward Westwood and their family
— five sons and four daughters — moved into the Jolly Corner, a
former inn in this quiet Worcestershire village. Mrs. Westwood told
a Sunday-newspaper here's what happened:
First, the Victorian blonde popped up—right out of the "naughty
nineties." She was so fetching that eight men ghosts followed her in
haunting the old inn. One wears a derby.
"The blonde," said Mrs. Westwood, "is a siren."
"She causes my young sons some sleepless nights. The whole
pack haunt us all over the house and indulge in acts of wildness.

FRUITVALE - M e a n i n g of
"Proposed Developments on the
Columbia River" was explained to
delegates attending the Spring convention of the Association of Kootenay Municipalities following a
banquet in the Fruitvale Community Hall Saturday night.
Introduced by, president C. H.
Simpkinson, speaker A. C. 'Ridgers
of Trail, a member of the Engineering Institute of Canada, was
born and educated in England,
and has livedhere 33 years.
Illustrating his remarks on a
chart, Mr. Ridgers said the Columbia, the fourth largest river in
North America, probably has the
largest power potential of any
river on the continent. It is divided five-sixths to one-sixth between the United States and Canada, with the Kootenay and Pend
d'Oreille being th,e largest Canadian tributaries. Average yearly
discharge at Astoria," Oregon, is
136,000,000 acre feet, .he quoted,
with 38 per cent of this from Canada.
' The Oregon treaty of 1846, the
Boundary Waters Treaty of 1909.
both between Britain and the U.S.,
cover the river, Mr. Ridgers said.
Among principles involved are
.that the first project on an international river has prior right 'to
waters, that no claim can be made
on water stored upstream by other
projects, ' and 'the downstream
benefit concept. Mr. Ridgers said

pool a building? the Warfield.village commission wants to know.
A resolution presented to the Association of Kootenay Municipalities, which held the morning session of its spring convention here
Saturday, asked the provincial government to amend the new Municipal Act as required to regulate
construction and operation of public and private swimming pools.
It was withdrawn after J. E.
Brown of Victoria, deputy minister
of municipalities, offered to get
the opinion of the B.C. Attorney-
General on the matter.
Mr. Brown advised, against putting specific items in the new Act,
and thought it contained two sections covering pools under different headings. James Evans, War-
field clerk, said their solicitor had
stated "power to infringe must be
specifically given." Mr. Evans
thought swimming pools would not
necessarily be classed with structures.
"Where are you going to draw
the line" as to size, Mayor P. G.
Warner of Slocan Cjty wondered.
Unanimous approval was given
to a resolution from Grand Forks
asking the provincial government
to include tuberculosis control institutions under "hospitals" so they
could receive "per diem rates"
paid under the Hospital Insurance
Act. A Rossland delegate said TB
care had taken one tax mill in his
city this year.
T. R. B. Adams of New Westminster, executive director of the
Union of British Columbia Municipalities, who read the resolutions,
said he was not sure whether TB.
control institutions were included
in a chronic care scheme outlined
recently by Hon. Eric Martin, B.C.
health and welfare minister.
Recommendation to place an advertisement in the official B.C,
centennial publication being prepared by a Vancouver firm was
made after more than an hour's
discussion.
UBCM PLANS
Mayor Joseph Kary of Nelson
said his city plans to host one
luncheon during the UBCM convention to be held there in September, and the Association thought
they should do the same. Mayor
Kary said it is hoped some businesses will entertain the' guests,
and one or two have already offered.
A short discussion of school costs
was requested by Tadanac.  Mr.
Brothers Speaks
At Lake Points
TRAIL — Don Brothers, Social
Credit candidate for Kootenay
West, made an early start on his
campaign by visiting some of the
outlying districts over the weekend, accompanied by Mrs. Brothers, provincial organizer F. Hob-
son and Mrs. Hobson. The candidate visited Social Credit groups in
West Creston, Harrop, Procter and
Queen's Bay.

Adams noted "very great" increases in some places, some of
which have complained to Victoria. The UBCM executive set up
a committee to meet with the B.C.
School Trustees' Assdciation on the
matter, and would like to learn
thoughts of the B.C. Department
of Education on financial sections.
The executive, according to Mr.
Adams, feels "complete unanimity" is necessary, along with "factual and realistic" presentations.
I am sure that this is the year
in which it has got to be done,"
Mr. Adams said, adding his
thought the situation in the Kootenays was not as bad as elsewhere in B.C.
The government formula has
been based on 1955 standards, but
Mr. Adams thought they will
"have to devise some type of formula that won't become, obsolete
too quickly." The last B.C. Legislative sitting accepted two amendments in the Education Act, one
providing for acceptance of the
number of teachers employed in
1957.
President, C. H. Simpkinson,
chairman of ihe Warfield village
commission, said every municipality but one, Invermere, was represented. Present were 53 delegates
and 37 guests. The large attendance was thought due to discussion of the new Municipal Act.
Hon. W. D. Black, minister of
^municipalities, MLA for Nelson-
Creston, had hoped to attend, but
wired his regrets at the last minute. '
Secretary C. W. R. Harper said
the Association has '$420 banked,
with assets worth $660. Books
were audited by C. F. Hunter.
Rev. -James Taylor of Knox
United Church in Trail gave the
invocation opening the meeting in
the Community Hall here. Delegates were luncheon guests of
Consolidated Mining and Smelting
Company at the James L. Webster
School cafeteria.
D. D. Morris, Cominco assistant
general manager, said his company was "very interested" in af-.
fairs of communities where their
operations are located, and where
their employees live. He discussed
problems noted by groups which
toured Ontario towns recently un;
der the University of Toronto. Mr.
Morris was in these groups.
Industry brings jobs, broader
taxations basis, also problems to
any community, Mr. Morris said.
The AKM executive met during
the afternoon.
insufficient water is now available to U.S. power plants most of
the year.'
U. S. agencies involved .in the
International Joint Commission,
established to deal with water
problems affecting Canada and
the U.S., are the Grand Coulee
and 15, other power plants, 'the
Northwest Power Pool, and the
Puget Sound Utilities Council
"Our American friends" have
achieved a _h i g h development,
while Canada has no power pro
jects on the main Columbia stem
Mr. Ridgers said.
DIVERSION PLAN
The Canadian plan includes diversion of Upper Kootenay waters
into the Columbia by a series ol
dams. The artificial lakes created
would be joined Ho the Shuswap
Lake by a tunnel. Mr. Ridgers
called the Mica Creek project
"colossal."
Diversion of the Kootenay would
be the only threat to present U.S.
developments, but it would not be
serious, Mr. Ridgers said. The
"contiict of opinion" over the question is shaping up into an international legal battie, he said, saying provision would have to be
made to prevent water loss to the
Kootenays.
Under "other considerations,"
Mr. Ridgers mentioneu that Roose^|
velt Lake, impounded by .Coulee,
has no beaches, cottages, or other
features found at, say, Christina
Lake. "Do we, as a people, want
this to happen?" He suggested
consideration be given to preservation of animal feeding grounds
and fishing facilities.
Thanks were offered by Jack
Thornber, chairman of the Montrose village commission.
SOUNDING BOARD
In- toasting the. Association, T.
R. B. Adams of New Westminster,
executive director of the Union
of British Columbia Municipalities,
reminded municipal governors the
"services which you render day
by day" touch people "in a hundred places." Mr. Adams called
local government "the laboratory
of democracy," and said the AKM
is a 'isounding board' and testing
ground."
Mayor Joseph Kary of Nelson
said delegates gave time and ef-
tort to help form legislation. The
AKM, he recalled, had "no small
part" in forming the new Municipal Act, and Mayor Kary pledged
members to "try our best to accept it and make it as workable as
possible."
In her reply to an amusing toast
to the ladies by Mayor R. E.
Sang of Cranbrook, Aid. Elizabeth
Wallach of Nelson said it is a
"matter of great regret to me'
lhat more vjomen did not take
part in local government.
Grace was said by Rev. J. Davenport, Anglican minister at Fruitvale, and thanks were offered to
ladies of the Auxiliary to the Fruitvale branch, Canadian Legion,
who prepared and served the meal.
ToastmasteY was village commis-
sion chairman C. G. Haines.
Reeve Lloyd William of Tadanac
and Mayor L. A. Read of Trail,
new president and vice-president
respectively, spoke briefly.
. Entertainment featured son
mimics by master of ceremonies
R. E. Reilly of Trail, popular
songs (>y John Fanini, soloists of
Warfield, and George Lamont, pianist, of Montrose, and "sleight of

with a dance to accordion and
guitar music by Mrs. Millie Larsen and her son Gary, with George
Lamont at the piano.
TRAIL'S FRIDAY   *
NIGHT SHOPPING
DRAWS CROWDS
TRAlL (CP) - Late night
shopping was inaugurated here
Friday night and thousands of residents of the city and district took
advantage of the extended store
hours. '
Merchants reported people from
as far away as Nelson, Castlegar
and Salmo purchased supplies.
Downtown Trail, had a festive
spirit with bands playing on main
corners while hats, balloons and
candies were given away to youngsters. Traffic was halted many
times because of crowds.
The retail merchants section of
the Trail Chamber of Commerce
said business topped that done any
night during the last Christmas
season.
The "family night" shopping
scheme is on an experimental basis
until July 1, when the new Municipal Act comes into effect.
The Trail'Times carried a front
page cartoon showing a man and
his wife commenting on Friday
night shopping, with the husband
suggesting, "Let's phone Joe and
the kids at Nelson and have them
over," an obvious reference to
Mayor Joseph Kary and family.

With the weatherman acting like
midsummer, beaches and parks
were the busy spots over the weekend. At Lakeside Park a few hardy
individuals decided to take the
plunge, small people were sitting
on the floats dangling their feet
in the water and smaller ones
were on the shore building sand
castles. Baby buggies were much

bonus weather. Swings, teeter-totters and tennis courts were busy
It was reported that quite s
number were in swimming at
Queen's Bay and there were hundreds of people all along the lake-
shore. Temperature rose to a sizzling ,80 degrees Sunday, four degrees hotter than Saturday's 76.
Plan Co-ordination
Of Citizenship Work
Proposal for establishment of a; ing 10 in B.C., the nearest being
group  to  co-ordinate    citizenship | at  Trail.   Where  there  were  no
work in Nelson was made here Saturday by Dr. W. G. Black ot
Vancouver, regional liaison officer
for B.C. for the government's citizenship branch. '
Nelson Chaniber of Commerce
may take up the proposition by
forming a citizenship committee
within its 'organization.
Dr. Black met M. B.' Ryalls,
president, and C. W. Ramsden,
first  vitfe-president,    to    outline
what he said is an obvious need j f jce,
Councils, other groups such asj
Local Councils of Women had taken ^iver as co-ordinators.
In Nelson, a Chamber of Commerce committee on citizenship
would be "ideal" for bringing
about simple co-ordination, Dr.
Black said. Booklets and pamphlets containing information on citizenship could be sent to the central
body, and thus be made available
to the public at the Chamber's of-"-
Drew" Kootenay Musical Society;
Abbie Pollard, Chairman, Nelson
Drama Festival; Arvid Schneider,
Recreation Commission; Alderman
F. N: Emmott; Alderman J. W.
McClelldhd.
In token of gratitude for her
work for the Festival, Mr. Leveque
presented a bouquet to Mrs. Pollard on behalf of the West Kootenay Drama Festival Committee.
The Saturday sessions in the
Nelson Junior High School auditorium, saw the following plays
produced, "The Monkey's Paw,"
by W. W. Jacobs, the Riondel Little Theatre; "The Curtain," by'
Haille Flanagan, presented by the
Fruitvale Community Players,
"Profile," by T. C. Thomas, presented by the Trail Little Theatre;
"Still Stands the House," by Gwen
Pilaris Ringwood, presented by the
Nelson Little Theatre; "Missing
From Home," by Philip Johnson,
presented by the Kinnaird Little
Theatre.
Afternoon performances were
discussed constructively by Mr.
Zoellner. His comments dealt with,
every detail, including sounds off
stage, setting, lighting and directing as well as actual interpretation
of each part by the actors.
In the evening, "Profile," (Trail)
"Still Stands the House," (Nelson),
and "Missing From Home" (Kinnaird), were presented to almost
capacity house.
Sincerity behind the acting of
all plays delighted Mr. Zoellner
and he strongly urged every member to keep up his interest in Little Theatre work. He. was impressed by the way they overcame several difficulties due to the small
stage and lack of necessary equipment.
Owing to an error in the program, the name of Howard Meredith was omitted from the cast of
"Still Stands the House." Despite
this confusion,' the adjudicator
spoke highly of the sincerity of Mr.
Meredith's performance.

for co-ordination of efforts on behalf of newcomers and already-
settled citizens.
The aim of the liaison officers,
he explained, i? to promote good
citizenship by working witn newcomers and -the general public.
This includes promotion of classes
in England, dissemination of information' about Canada — the
land, the government, history and
resources — and information of
a more personal kind such as social services, opportunities for recreation and employment.
"It's a deliberate program for
integration of newcomers," he
said. "Results have been gratifying right across the country."
It was not possible, however,
for the government to do the job
alone. It had to have the co-operation of the people. In B.C.,
churches havs taken the lead,
followed by newspapers and radio
{stations, Parent-Teacher Associations, service clubs, youth groups
and labor organizations.    ■
As a number of these groups had
been working independently on
furthering good citizenship,, it had
become apparent that co-ordination was needed to avoid "conflicts, overlapping and gaps."

for broader representation of organizations at citizenship i ceremonies in the courts.
Referring to the Doukhobors,
which constituted "a minority
problem common to every country," Dr. Black stated that much
could be done to combat-prejudice
and discrimination. »
Summing up his work and that
of local sponsoring ■ groups, he
said: "It's intangible work, but

 Municipal Act Described
To Meet by Deputy Minister
MONTROSE - Reeve Lloyd
Williams of Tadanac was elected
president at the afternoon ses--
sion of the Association of Kootenay Municipalities Spring con-
yention here Saturday. He succeeds C. H. Simpkinson, chairman of the Warfield village- commission.
New vice-president is Mayor L.
A. Read of Trail. Re-elected were,
secretary-treasurer C. W. R. Harper, Nelson city clerk, and executive members Aid. Elizabeth
Wallach-of Nelson, Mayor R. E.
Sang of Cranbrook, and J. Draper,
chairman of New Denver village
commission.
The regular Fall meeting has
been cancelled this year in favor of
the Union of British Columbia
Municipalities convention in Nelson next September.
Highlight was a more than two-
hour address by J. E. Brown of
Victoria, deputy minister of municipal affairs, outlining the new
Municipal Act, scheduled to come
into force July 1. Copies of the Act
have been distributed to all councils and commissions, and most
of the delegates and visitors leafed
through theirs while Mr. Brown
spoke.
Preparing the lengthy document
was a "task of some considerable
magnitude,'" according to Mr.
Brown, and the Act is "probably
unique in the manner in which it
was put together.". He said "invaluable" advice came from municipal committees, but this "composite viewpoint of 25 to 50 people"
had both strength and weakness.
Purpose of the Act is to confer
general, not specific, powers on
municipal g o v e r n m e n t s, Mr.
Brown stated; However, he warned, "don't start limiting your own
powers." Under the old Municipal
Act, he continued, it was necessary

COMMON BASIS
The seven or eight acts replaced
by the new one have wiped out
the equivalent of 180 pages of printing, Mr. Brown said, and placed
all municipalities on a "common
basis" regardless of size.
The trqiiblesome Shops Regulations and Weekly Holidays Act, as
well as municipal bylaws regarding this, has been repealed. Mr.
Brown' said other bylaws partly
or wholly inconsistent with the
new Act should be repealed, and
advised municipalities to start preparations now. '   '.
The Act clearly defines the
meaning of "shop", and lists the
hours of business for them, and
the days they can close. 'Tf you
do nothing," Mr. Brown stated,
"then the days are as set out in
the Act," but councils, may decide
on other hours. Garages, bakeries;
drug stores, and some other businesses, may be exempted if desired, and "hawkers" and "peddlers" can also be required to follow these regulations.
A Local Service Act has been
included to make Hon. W. D. Black,
minister of municipalities, MLA
for Nelson-Creston, a "council"
for unorganized territories. In or-'
der to establish a "common policy", Mr. Brown's department is
writing to municipal governments
bordering unorganized territories
asking what action they will be
taking in regards to shopping
hours.
LIST CLOSES SEPT. 30
There are now only three'classes
of voters, owner, resident and tenant, with the spouse classification
being dropped. A tenant might be
someone who lives in Warfield and
does business in Trail, Mr. Brown
explained. The municipal voters'
list will now close September 30,
and must be posted by October 20.
Court of revision will be October
15, with nominations the first Monday in December, and polling the
Thursday of the following week.
Office qualifications have been
reduced to a "common basis." An
owner-elector who has been on the
voters' list the preceding year may
run for office, according to Mr.
Brown. Disqualifications from office can be made by a judge's declaration, filing of a disclaimer, or
resoultion from council, which can
be appealed in court within five
days.
Unless otherwise stated, municipal governing bodies will now be
able to take- action through bylaws
or resolutions, without going to the
electors. Bylaws will be needed to
buy or sell land, and to authorize
utilities. Assent of electors will
only be necessary to buy or sell
land if borrowing is involved.
To cut down work by municipal
governors, Mr. Brown said provision has been made for committees
to carry out administrative or executive powers without further reference to councils or commissions,
These committees, he stated, could
include senior members of staff
or outsiders.
BUDGET A MUST
Most municipalities now have
budgets but all must have them
under the new legislation. Mr.
Brown thought a budget gives
"better results for your money."
Maximum payments to local government officials have been increased.
Grants may now be made to another municipality needing aid,
also to organizations which contribute to community interest.
Three readings will now be required before assent can be given
by the provincial government to
municipal bylaws. These will'now
be in force from the date of their
adoption or any other date specified in the bylaw. City and district
bylaws will no longer be registered
at the Provincial Court House, so
that municipal staffs will have to
care for them. Mr. Brown suggested copies be sent to Victoria for
safekeeping.
Operations in villages, local districts and town will continue much
the game as now, and the provincial government will return their
bylaws if it does not consider
them proper.
Borrowing against bonds for utilities is out, and cities will be able
to borrow for capital purposes only.
Villages will be allowed to borrow
for such things as utilities, fire-
fighting equipment, hospitals and
highways. Sinking fund debentures
can be held 'only for a short time.'
Debenture series cannot be dated
more than three years after the
start of the project for which they
were issued, and short-time borrowing can be done  without a
vote.
The new Debt Repayment Fund
gives power to "pre-levy" in order to "level off" debt repay-'
ments.  A  revolving  local  Improvement Fund is provided for
capital works.
Retroactive to January 1,1957,

(schools are exempt from taxes.
From two to five acres may now
be classed as a farm if that provides the greater part of the
owner's income. The frontage
tax has been "regularized andj
formularized," and is not bound
to the Local Improvement tax.
Road, library and poll taxes are
out.
Municipal governments, will now
be able to regulate' highway • traffic by any means through passage
of bylaws, Mr. Brown said. A resolution will enable construction of
a public building on municipally-
owned land.
Mr. Brown recommended setting
down conditions for extension of
services to new subdivisions, "then
you're protected." Regulation of
use of streets and roads by fran-
chised utilities will now be allowed. Different local improvement
levies can be made every year.
The Recreation and Community
Services part gives local government power to acquire "anything
that's for the pleasure, use, or community recreation of the public.
Parks boards and police commissions will be appointed, instead of
elected as now.
A three-fifths vote will be needed to fluoridate water supplies,
any bylaws can be passed to establish municipal ambulance services.
Designation of the "official community plan" for community planning will be possible only with approval of the Lieutenant Governor
of B.C. Advisory planning commissions will be established to replace
Town Planning Commissions. It
will now be possible to regulate
the size, shape, siting, off=street
parking, and loading zones of
buildings, a three-man Zoning
Boards of Appeal will function for
three years.
If two-thirds of the municipal governments' belonging to a Regional
Planning Board pass the Board's
budget, it will be binding on all
members,'
BACK IN LAPS
Mayor Clifford Swan of Kimberley complained the new Act more
or less" puts responsibility for
shops regulation "back in council's-lap," whereas the UBCM last
year asked for repeal of the entire
Shops Act, taking this responsibility \away from local governments.
Mr. Brown reminded him stores
could close voluntarily at other
times if they wanted to..
Mayor James White of Fernie
said members of the B.C. Retail
Merchants' Association have been
advised there will be a six-day
shopping week. Mr. Brown repeated the Act says nothing1 about
what hours stores can-open, and
only that they must close by a
certain time.
Commissioner S. C. Muirhead of
Kinnaird was told villages will not
have to make welfare payments,
also that village commission chairmen will be elected separately
since they will now have "certain
executive powers." To facilitate
public works, easements will now
be obtained by resolution, not bj-
law as previously. -
Mr. Brown was thanked for his
explanation of the new legislation,
and Mayor Joseph Kary of Nelson
thanked the villages of Warfield
and Montrose.
Jack Thornber, chairman of the
village commission at Montrose,
welcomed the delegates, who gathered in the school. Jack Yolland,
Montrose commissioner, made a
presentation to James Evans, War-
field clerk, for his help in setting
up Montrose.
While the delegates and visitors
were engrossed in municipal af-.
fairs, their wives were entertained
at tea in the Montrose Community
Hall.
Cranbrook Eagles
Take Hall Lease
CRANBROOK - The former
Pentecostal Tabernacle building on
Cranbrook Street has been taken
on the basis of a year's lease byl
Cranbrook Aerie of the Fraternal
Order of Eagles and will be converted immediately into a hall for
lodge use and also for public rental
purposes. It was sold to Mrs. Laura
Proctor by the congregation last:
year, and the land on which it is
located was sold to an oil company.
FOE members will start immediately putting the hall into shape
for its new use.
One of its initial lodge functions
will be installation of the newly
elected officers of the Aerie June
5. There are past president Henry
Main, resident Frank Edmunds,
vice-president Ray Masse, secretary Alec Sutherland, treasurer
James Frost, chaplain Gordon
Lyons, trustees Dwayne Boyd, Vic
Hayward and Royce Sissons, and
guards Herb Rebel and Art Hof-

Man Hangs Self
Near Fernie
■
.
FERNIE — Josef' Lypaczewski,
a CPR employee of Grand Forks,
formerly a farmer at Souris, Man.,
was found dead hanging from a
tree near the highway about six
miles south of Fernie. He is
thought to have taken his own life.
Mr. Lypaczewski was returning
to Nelson after a visit to his Manitoba farm in the company of a
friend Les Clarkson of Nelson, and
an Air Force man who was on
leave.
• After passing through Fernie,
Lypaczewski requested Clarkson
to stop the car and went into the
bushes close to the Highway.
When he, failed to appear after
a long wait, his companions called
to him. Receiving no reply, they
began looking for him in the bushes. Failing to uncover any trace
of their companion, Clarkson and
the airman drove back to Fernie
where they notified RCMP.

This Is Safety Week
From the earliest days the forests    lessness or want of forethought. It is
of British Columbia have been important in her economy. They have provided a livelihood for many and have
increasingly affected the welfare of
others by providing subsidiary industries to handle forest products.
But the.felling of timber and its
transportation from the forest and its
conversion into lumber in the mills of
. the province are attendant with danger. For mdny years lumbering was
considered a most dangerous form of
making a-living, now, thanks to the
concerted efforts of all those engaged
in one of its many forms of labor, it
is daily becoming safer.
The price of safety is eternal vigilance; Unforeseen accidents will always occur, but the greater number
are those which are the result of care-
to impress the necessity for safety consciousness upon workers in forests and
mills that the provincial government
has issued a proclamation declaring
this week "Forest Products Safety
Week." —
How necessary this is, is shown by
the fact that last year there were 115
workmen killed in the forest products
industry, and the large total of 9490
injured.
In common with others in the industry the mills In this area will raise
"No Accident" flags at the beginning
of the week which will not be lowered
until an accident occurs. It is hoped
by this that those in the industry will
be stimulated to a constant remembrance of the necessity of taking precautions against accidents.
Scoutinfc's Jubilee
The largest mass airlift ever unuertaken
between Canada and the United Kingdom
will be the ferrying of Canadian Scouts and
Leaders to, the big international gathering
at Sutton Cpldfield, Warwickshire, England,
in August.   ..' .
More than 1400 Scouts and Leaders will
represent Canada, the majority of whom will
be flown to England by chartered aircraft.
The: 'international, gathering, dubbed
"J-I-M" because it combines the initial letters for the three Scout gatherings to be
held at this time: Jamboree for Boy Scouts,
an Indaba for Leaders and a Moot for Hover
Scouts (or older Scouts). The gathering of
Scouts near the birthplace of the Scout movement is being held to mark not only the 50lh
anniversary of the movement but also the
centenary of the founder's birth. Lord Baden-
Powell of Gilwell who lived 1857 to 1941 is
more often referred to by the two initials
"B.-P." Actually, nobody was more surprised
than Baden-Powell himself that the publishing of his bppk, "Scouting for Boys" should
start the Bby ?Scout movement. He simply
re-wrote hjs book, "Aid to Scouting" because
he thought some of his ideas gained from
his own experience of training young men
would be useful to existing youth organizations to supplement their own programs.
Instead, the boys not only in Britain, but
elsewhere as well, formed themselves into
patrols and'called themselves "Boy Scouts."
Rather than see the movement get out of
hand, B.-P: decided to leave the Army, in
which he was a major-general, to devote full
time guiding the Boy Scouts.
Canada is planning to be represented by
1424 Scouts and leaders at the Jubilee Jam-
boree-Indaba-Mootto be held August 1 to 12.
Scouts and their leaders from B.C. and Alberta will fly the Polar Route via Edmonton
and Vancouver by Canadian Pacific Airlines.
The remainder of the Canadian contingent
will be flown from points in Eastern Canada,
including a stop at Gander, Newfoundland.
Canada began preparing for the celebrations immediately upon the conclusion, of the
8th World Jamboree held at Niagara-on-
the-Lake in August, 1955. The contingent will
be under the leadership of Jackson Dodds,
CBE, of Montreal,. deputy Chief Scout for
Canada, assisted by Fred J. Findlay, Chief
Executive Commissioner at Canadian Scout
headquarters in Ottawa.
The contingent will include 957 Scbuts
and 99 adult leaders at the Jamboree, about
96 adult leaders to the Indaba and 174 Rover
Scouts and 18 Rover Leaders to the Mbot.
Another group of 80' adult leaders will work
at headquarters of "J-I-M".
Individualism Lost
If a keen student of human behavior were
asked to name the principal scarcity in. these
booming times, he might very well say, the
individual. For we have collectivized our
dealings, our way of life and our very apr
pearanc'e; Razors and the dreadful nonentity
of the business suit have done for men what
the fashion designers do for women and the
blazers and crazes even do for our teenagers. In such a conformist society, any
tendency to individualism is taken to border
on the,queer. '
In contrast, it was always refreshing to
think of such places as Hyde Park, where
the "be yourself' institution is not only permitted but sedulously guarded by the London police. ."England", said.George Santa-
yana, "is' the paradise of individuality, eccentricity, heresy, anomalies," hobbies and
humor's".. Yet a bearded Sikh who tried to get
a job with (he Nottingham municipal bus
Verse
MY PRAYER TO YOU
How often have I whispered to the

Little messages. On the wing tips of the
Fleeting wind to carry to you. And prayed
That by some mystical powers.
These words would be sung to you, by

company was turned down because, said the
company, many women don't like men with
beards. If not, why? Because beards are
rough and scratchy? Nonsense; women like
men in tweeds, and the scratchier the more
manly. No; it's because bearded men are
rare, and thus individualistic. And individuals
are not to be trusted too far—much less too
near.
Happily, however, we need not go abroad
at all to find the heroic rarity of individualism. The Vancouver Herald, for instance,
notes with approval that it will be a bad
day when it can't look out its window and
see "at least some nonconformists to, the
drab uniformity of everyday dress and custom." Out there they have a man who wears
jodhpurs and a Gandhi cap, and boasts of
'having had his name misspelled in fifty-three
countries. They have another who celebrated
his seventy-third birthday in "a long morning coat and striped pants", and customarily
turns out with grey spats* and gloves, and
carrying a gold-knobbed cane.
Call it individualistic or eccentric if we
Uke; call it even queer, We could do with
some such courage in Toronto. Down here
even a minor clothing reform has to be
tackled in unison, with such devices as centenaries or club prizes for inducements and
alibis. It's all right to say something must
have happened to Santayana's England. But
when we court even the timidest- individualism via the collective route, something has
happened to us as well.

Confusion
At the Top
, If Canadians are becoming confused ebn-
eerning credit contrbls and inflation, there is
a very simple explanation. It is a direct
reflection ol the confusingly contradictory
statements made by Dominion cabinet ministers on these subjects. In addition, an increasing pumber of bankers' and businessmen differ to some extent among themselves,
but on the whole take exception to principal
official reasons for continuing the credit
squeeze and to the methods of applying it.
Trade Minister Howe in Edmonton this
week said:
I fully expect, just as everyone who has
a knowledge of what is going on expects,
that Canada will expand during 1957 at a
faster rate than ever before in history.
On March 14 Finance Minister Harris
said in his budget speech in the Commons:
The final result (for fiscal 1956-57) appears to be that the gross national product
increased by nearly 11 per cent to a record
total ol $29,750,000,000 . . . Total capital expenditures in Canada in 1057 are expected to
increase by a further 8 per cent. Having
regard to the condition of overstrain which
characterized our economy in 1056, this indication of a more moderate rate ot growth
is to be welcomed. . . . For purposes of revenue forecasting i am assuming that the increase in the gross national product will be
about 5 per cent.
The imance minister also said that inflationary pressures had been carried forward lrom last year, but that they "may begin to moderate" this year. |_u> Howe in
_cimonlon, however, declared that the cost
of living had been stabilized and that as tar
as he knew all measures by the government
to check iniiatlon were now in ellect, and
that nd new steps were planned.
That statement brings him into conflict
with Governor James Coyne of the Bank ol
Canada, who has very pointedly proposed
some -new steps which would not only permit
the central bank to exercise direct controls
on the issue of credit, but would reorganize
the commercial banking system to make such
controls feasible. Except for Mr. Howe's repudiation, the proposals of Mr. Coyne appear
to have been temporarily shelved, probably
because they were too 'hot'' for consideration immediately before a general election.
Where does all this official mumbo-jumbo
leave Canadian householders, taxpayers and
electors? Probably just where President E,
G. Burton of Simpsons Ltd. finds them. He
declares in the face of the Bank of Canada's
insistence that consumer credit is overextended, that although credit terms by
Simpsons Ltd. and Simpsons-Sears Ltd. are
substantially unchanged, installment credit
has been dropping steadily in recent months,
and that Canadians are not over-committeu
in respect of time payments. As a widely
experienced merchandiser, Mr. Burton also
foresees the possibility of an. overproduction
of some consumer goods this year—with the
usual result of somewhat lower prices.
What this appears to indicate is that the
men engaged in merchandising on credit and
the householders with whom they do business
have a more realistic view of our inflation
problem than the authors of official economic
gobbledygook on the subject.

Dirigible Tragedy
Salty Politics
We cannot es^jpe a feeling of backhanded -admiration for Nova Scotia's minister of
highways, Mr. G. I, Smith, who has moved
right to the head of the list of Canada's too
few ruggedly forthright politicians.
Political patronage, he said in his Legislature, is as old as Confederation and will and
should continue. Further, when the electors
voted last October to change the province's
cabinet ministers they also voted to change
its highway workers. And are the replacements for dismissed Liberal Civil servants
Conservatives? "They certainly are."
As political morality this may be responsible. But by contrast with the mealy-mouthed piety with which something^or-the-boys
tends to be covered up in other provinces it
is a refreshing lungful of salt, rock-scarring
Maritime air. — Vancouver Province.
Odd Reason
We can't help feeling a backhanded admiration for the rugged people of the mist-
and-history-shrouded North Sea island of
Heligoland, who are standing fast against
the ranch-style era.
They are organizing a plebiscite to stop
the. West German government from substituting'tiled bathrooms, electric'kitchens, picture
windows and pastel paint jobs for the stone
cottages destroyed during the war and after
(when the island was an R.A.F. bombing
range).
j Their reason?

is so often a man's proudest possession:
"We can't afford it."

Editor's note: On May 6, 1937,
the dirigible Hindenburg exploded with terrifying suddenness while landing at Lakehurst,
N.J., killing 36 persons. Murray
Becker, who today is an Associated Press photographer,
witnessed this disaster and took
many graphic pictures of it for
The AP. Twenty years later
Becker recalls vividly every de'
tail of those moments of terror.
Here is his story.
By MURRAY BECKER
LAKEHURST, N.J. (AP) - It
was a routine assignment. I was
to take pictures of the dirigible
Hindenburg when it landed at
Lakehurst naVal air station after
a Might from Frankfurt, Germany.
The giant airship was scheduled
to land at 6 a.m. on that May 6th
20 years ago. So I was on hand
bright and early wilh several other
photographers and a few reporters. But the hours dragged by and
there was no,sign,of the Hindenburg.
Then about 4 p.m. someone
shouted: "There*she is!"
I looked up and saw the huge
zeppelin floating majestically overhead, the sun glinting on its silvery sides. Huge Nazi swastikas
stood out brilliantly on the tail-
fins. I could see passengers moving about in the salon and crew
members in the control section.
On board were 38 passengers and
a crew of 59.
Excited friends   and   relatives
pressed closer to the fence near
the hangar.    '
STORM CLOUD THREAT
But we learned from Cmdr.
Charles Rosendahl, commandant
of the station, that Capt. Max
Pruss, Hindenburg commander,
was wary of storm clouds and had
radioed he would postpone a landing until   at   least   6 p.m.
Handling an 803-foot dirigible
held up by 7,000,000 cubic feet of
highly-inflammable hydrogen was
no easy job and Pruss wanted to
be certain conditions were right
before he came in.
I stood in the middle of the field
and took some pictures of the ship
as it glided past the mooring mast
and headed south toward Atlantic
City to escape the approaching
storm. .
Suddenly the wind swept the
clouds overhead and a downpour
drenched the field.
I scrambled out to take pictures.
At 7:20 the airship was gliding
slowly toward the mooring mast
at an altitude of about 200 feet.
Two minutes later the ship was
over the mast and two 400 ■ foot
landing ropes were tossed to the
ground crew. The Hindenburg's
engines coughed slightly as the
propellers reversed their direction
causing the ship to hover peacefully at a height of about 75 feet.
SUDDENLY AN EXPLOSION
I walked some distance away,
hoping to get a picture of the
giant at Ihe exact moment it made
contact with the mast. I wanted
to shoot my pictures from the tail
looking under the belly toward the
mast tower.
I nev,er made that picture.'
As I stood waiting for the zeppelin to swing around, a, tongue
of flame suddenly burst from the
tail section. In the next second
the section exploded.
"Oh, my God!" I shouted. I was
stunned, but, with a photographer's instinct, I raised my camera
and caught the ship on an even
keel before It crashed to the
ground seconds later.
Working almost automatically,
I* changed picture holders, rewound my focal plane shutter and
within five seconds had a second
shot of the huge ship striking the
ground with flames pouring from
the ma6t.
I was conscious of a terrific
blast! of heat and of people screaming about me, but I ran forward,
snapping pictures until the heat
drove me back.
From a distance I recorded on
film the smoking, twisted skeleton
ot this monster which only a minute before had been master of the
air. Exactly 32 seconds after Ihe
first explosion the. hydrogen had
been consumed and only the red-
hot metal framework remained.
SOME DID SURVIVE
Miraculously, survivors, many
of them in flames, started emerging from' the wreckage. Some were
running, some crawling, others
stumbling.
I continued to take pictures, repeating, "Oh, my God!" over and
over.
I photographed a victim being
led away by two navy men. He
was in a daze, his clothes completely burned away, his skin
hanging from his arms. The Associated Press used this picture after
painting some clothes on the man.
I never was able to identify him
and don't believe he survived.
After taking about 15 pictures, I

method of detecting.early breast
cancer by measuring heat emitted
by the cancerous -growth will Increase the "pathetically small"
proportion of cases now curable

a Montreal surgeon.
Tha method is based on the

is used with sensitive electronic

Dr. Lawson said the test enables doctors to operate in time

In discussion following the
paper, doctors said the research
may lead to the development of a
thermometer that would enable
fast, accurate diagnosis of early
breast cancer.
returned to the hangar where the
nress had set up headquarters.
Here I arranged for a plane to
carry my film to the Newark airport and for an Associated Press
messenger to pick it up there.
Then I just sat down on the
ground outside the hangar with
my back against the wall and

U.K. Weeklies

Talks otl Russ
LONDON (CPl-TWo Influential
British weeklies of divergent political views suggest that Russian
fear of encirclement by nuclear
forces may -make the Soviet Urf-

Middle East.
The right - wing Spectator, discussing the crisis in Jordan, says
such fear makes the present moment favorable for a change of
tactics. *.
"Sooner or later Britain and
America ^ill have to negotiate
with the Soviet Union about the
Middle East. It had better be before rather than after a really serious outbreak."
The left-wing New Statesman
and Nation also calls for a meeting between the heads of Britain
and Russia, but suggests the "political difficulties in the way of an
early get • together between the
Kremlin and the White House are
for the moment almost insuperable."
"That is where Britain comes
in. As America's principal ally

SHERRITT-GORDON
PLANS EXPANSION
TORONTO (CP) — Sherritt -
Gordon Mines Ltd., will expand
capacity of its refinery at Fort
Saskatchewan, near Edmonton, to
a minimum of 25,000,000 pounds of
nickel metal a year — compared
with a current capacity bf arnund
20,000,000 pounds—Eldon L. Brown,
president, said Friday at the com-
■pany's annual meeting.
The largest part of the increased production is expected to
be from concentrates from the
nickel mine at Choate, B.C.,
which Western Nickel Ltd., in
which Sherritt has ah interest,
plans to put into production.
The increased capacity is expected to be effective in early
1958, when Western Nickel concentrates should start arriving.

King Features
For Parents . ...
Two Sides to
Parental Control
\By Dr. H. N. BUNDESEN
This business of parental authority has' two sides.
You parents view it as sort of
a "protective shield to safeguard
your child during his growing up
period. The youngster, on the
other hand, quite often regards
this authority as a barrier to his
desired independence.
Whether he adjusts to this authority depends as much upon the
parents as it does upon the youngster. And adjust he must, for his
future acceptance or defiance of
authority is based to a great degree on his childhood training.
Very often parents complain to
their doctor that some emotional
or mental handicap is blocking
their child's progress by causing
open conflict between the youngster and his mother and dad.
In some cases, of cairse, this is
true. But in many othRs the fault
Ues with the parents, not the child.
SIMPLE CHECK
How about checking your own
attitude by answering these simple
questions?
1—Are you- asserting authority
over your children to satisfy, your
own need of a sense of power or
importance?
2—Are you influenced by the;
opinions of neighbors or friends
on how children should be raised?
3—Do you assert your authority
chiefly for your own comfort and
convenience?
4—Do you do it simply as a
matter of habit, without giving it
much thought?
The answers to these questions
may help you understand yourself. If you realize that your attitude, is an unfair one, you may
find that changing it will get.
better results all around.
If you can solve disputes with
your children before _nyone is
really harmed, you are doing a
good job in helping them through
a difficult period.

Go Slowly and
Live Longer
OTTAWA (CP)-At least one
campaign this summer will be
aimed at the fellow in a hurry.
Soon .everything from match-
folders to huge billboards -will be
saying: "Slow down and live."
Promoted by the Canadian
Highway Safety Conference for
the first time in Canada, hurrying
drivers won't be able to "escape"
the campaign by crossing any
North American borders.
The continent-wide campaign
extends all the wa^ to Puerto
Rico. It's designed to make holidays happy outings without tragic endings.
HEAVY TOLL
Last year an average of 78.43
Canadians died each week in
highway accidents during the six
months from July to December
said W. Arch Bryce, general manager pf the highway safety conference, in an interview. The
monthly average was 313.6 deaths.
These are the months of hazardous holiday weekends, swift
weather changes and a preponderance of family - filled cars
whose drivers hurry away to
vacations and then hurry back
home along crowded highways.
The-"slow down and live" campaign has been endorsed by Gov-
ernor'General Massey and Prime
Minister St. Laurent.
In a letter supporting the campaign ,Mr. Massey said the campaign slogan could also be "slow
down and let live." "t is so often
the innocent who suffer from the
careless driver."
Urging complete co-operation
by drivers, pedestrians and traffic enforcement officers, Mr. St.
Laurent said "only persistent vigilance can reduce the tragic tbll
of the roads, especially during the
holiday season."

JOHANNESBURG (AP)-Jimmy Elliott, former South
African.middleweight champion knocked out in the sixth
round of a title fight Saturday night by British Empire
middleweight champion Pat McAteer, died in hospital
Sunday.
Elliott went down after a hard left hook from McAteer, tried to rise but fell back and had to be> carried
from the ring on a stretcher. Doctors decided to operate
immediately for a b lood clot on the brain and Elliott was
on the operating table for six hours.
He died about three hours after the operation.
Johnnny Campbell, manager of McAteer, said he
and the champion were broken up by Elliott's tragic
death.
"I don't know what to say," he said. "Both Pat and I  •>
are terribly upset."
Elliott, born in Scotland, came to South Africa as a
child. He leaves a widow, Lorraine, who was at the ringside, and two children, 4 and 8.
Elliott's knockout was the first of his career, which
included 33 professional bouts since 1952.
He won the South "African middleweight championship in 1953 by outpointing Duggie Miller.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) --< Calumet Farm's Iron Liege, lightly
regarded son of Bull Lea following the scratching of stablemate
Gen. Duke, won the 83rd Kentucky Derby by the narrowest margin over Ralph Lowe's Texas-
owned Gallant Man, Saturday.
In a driving finish, Willie Har-
tack sent Iron Liege across the
finish line a nose in front of the
little Gallant Man as Bold Ruler,
favorite on this cold, blustery day,
wound up fourth.
Round Table, owned by the Kerr
Stables, of Oklahoma City, was
third.
Mister Jive, owned by Jack Ap-
plebaum of Toronto, finished seventh in the field of nine after running in fifth position part of the
race. AH carried 126 pounds.
It took a photo to establish Iron
Liege as the winner.
THE SHOE BOOTS IT
The finish might have been altogether different except for a
boner pulled by Willie Shoemaker
aboard Gallant Man.
Shoemaker told stewards after
the race he misjudged the finish
line and pulled up his mount
slightly about 70 yards from
home.
Stewards .viewing the movies
immediately after the race said
they showed plainly that Shoemaker raised up at that point. He
saw his mistake, however, and
went back to work, missing by
only a nose. ,
The time for the IV4 miles was
2:02 1-5, four fifths of a second off
Whirlaway's track record.
Iron Liege paid $18.80, $9.40 and
$6,20. Gallant Man returned $5 and
$4, Round Table $4 to show.
In chalking up the sixth derby
triumph for Mrs. Gene Markey's
famed Calumet Farm, Iron Liege
proved that he was a worthy substitute-for Gen. Duke. The latter
-Was forced out of the $152,050 race
by an injured foot.
The vlftory was worth $107,950
and boosted Iron Liege's total
earnings to $162,580.

Diem Emerges Strong
Leader on Asian Scene
  By JOSEPH NERBONNE
SAIGON,. VIET NAM <AP)-
When austere, scholarly Ngo Dinh
Diem took over as his country's
premier three years ago. the wise
money was stacked against his
political survival for more than a
month or two.
It seemed a safe bet. Diem—
who once intended becoming
Roman Catholic priest and has
continued a life pledged to chastity even after he decided against
the vocation—faced a formidable
phalanx of troubles.
Across the 17th'parallel dividing the Communist-ruled north
from the free South Viet Nam, the
Reds were waiting smugly for the
effects of their flourishing subversion campaign below the border.
• In south Viet Nam, private .armies bedeviled the fledgling «ov-
ernment. And Diem was confronted with the widespread indifference of his compatriots, most
of whom believed a Communist
takeover imminent.
Tough - fibred Diem triumphed
over all these obstacles. Today,
as the.first president of the Vietnamese republic, he emerges as
one of the strongest leaders on the
febrile Asian scene.
When Diem proclaimed the republic Oct. 26, 1955, he aligned his
government squarely .with.' the
democratic West. In order to survive, he said, "all democracies
need . . . solidarity with regimes
which have common ideals."
For many Asian listeners,
Diem's record as a foe of French
colonial rule in Indochina adds
resonance' to his anti-Communist
pronouncements. Diem has spoken
up often and sharply.
. In the black June days of 1954
the little ruddy - faced politician
could hardly find enough men to
form' a cabinet, so sure were most
of the experienced hands that his
government was doomed to failure.
His adversaries incjuded an
anti-Diem army of 200,000; numerous questionable political and
religious private armies; French
obstruction and a formidable Red
underground. '
GRADUALLY WON OUT
Gradually, Diem whittled away
the strength of his opponents;
soundly beating most, persuading
some to come over to his side,
buying off others and by degrees
winning the admiration of the majority of suspicious Vietnamese
south of the 17th parallel.
After
Every Meal
Helps keep teeth clean*
Freshens mouth.
Sweetens breath.
The son of a high Mandarin in
the former imperial court at Hue,
Diem rose rapidly in government
service. At 32, he became minister
of interior to emperor Bao Dai under the French protectorate of
Annam,
Disgusted by the French refusal
to grant him some independence
in office he resigned in 1933 and
spent the next 20 yeajs in political oblivion. He carried on a private campaign of resistance to the
French, rallying around him supporters who- are,with him today.
SECURJTY RESTORED
One of his most impressive
achievements since taking office
is the restoration of security in a
country physically and mentally
broken by Japanese occupation
and eight years of civil war.
Many residents of Viet Nam had
never left their home towns, so
dangerous was it to travel in the
country.
Now the situation is reversed,
thought it took full-scale military
campaign against rebellious sect
armies to do it. A tourist or businessman in 1957 travels without
fear to spots once reachable only
in a French military convoy.
Diem fought the sects to extinction but his chief enemy, the Communist Vietminh, ■ are ever ready
and waiting for their chance. The
Geneva agreements signed by the
Friench and Vietminh ending the
Indochina war called, for an all-
Viet Nam election in July 1956.
Diem not only "refused to hold the
election but wouldn't even discuss
it with the Communists. He got
away wtih it.
DR. SELWYN McCABE of New Zealand, a visiting researcher
at U.S. National Heart Institute In Washington, Is shown In

Lead and Zinc
In Spotlight
NEW YORK (AP) - Lead and
zinc stole the spotlight from copper in the nonferrous metals market last week.
The U.S. government announced
it would continue to stockpile purchases of lead and zinc for a while,
which is encouraging news to producers of the metals. But agriculture department officials said the
barter program, swapping surplus
agricultural products for foreign
metals, has been temporarily suspended. This' news has just the op:
posite effect.
Prices of both metals stayed
where they have been since January, 1956 —13% cents a pound for
zinc and 16 cents for lead. Zinc
sales were reported improved on
the week, while lead buying was
quiet.
It was a quiet week on the London metal exchange, with copper
staying close to the 30-cent level
virtually all the time.
Major metals prices;
Copper; 30:5-32 cents a pound delivered. Foreign 30 cents, nominal,
New York,
Leadj 16 cents a pound, New
York; 'l5.8 cents St. Louis. Zinc;
13.5 cents a pound, East St. Louis;
14 cents, New York.

In Trade for
For) Churchill
.WINNIPEG (CP) - A leading
British shipper says the port of
Churchill will have to rely more
and more for trade on northern
Manitoba development after the
St. Lawrence Seaway project is
completed.      .   -:|
Peter Dalgliesh, head of the
Dalgliesh Lines which operate between England and the northern
Manitoba port, 610 miles north of
here, said In an interview Friday
the steady increase in business
through Churchill in the last 10
years Is due for a slight increase
this year,
He said that in 1958, however,
he looked for a start of "increasing trade through the port depending on the development of the
International Nickel Co. and its
associates.
"Then in 1959, when the seaway gets through, the port of
Churchill will have to rely for
trade much more on the requirements of the northern Canada
area and. less on movement to
Winnipeg and southern Saskatchewan."
This change "will not knock out
Churchill by any means but it will
change the trend," he said.
ON ANNUAL TRIP
Mr, Dalgliesh, who has sailed
on tramp cargo ships that visit
Churchill but who admits his navigation abilities*"couldn't keep
one of them off the rocks," was
in: Winnipeg on his annual trip
when the first ship to invite Canadian importers to book shipments through the port when the
first ship arrives about July 27.
He said he does not look for any
earlier season but hopes the usual
Oct. 15 closing date for shipping
might in future be extended to the
end of October.
Churchill by the "only people who
bring cargo .westbound" are being increased but there is scope
for more, Mr'. Dalgliesh said. Any
shipments missed are due "partly
to inertia and partly to lack of
knowledge."
Long an advocate of increased
use of the northern port, Mr. Dalgliesh said he will continue that
interest after the St. Lawrence

Optimism Continues
As Markets Steady
By RICHARD RAYMOND 	
,.. Canadian Press Staff Writer
Canadian stock markets recorded a moderate but steady advance this week as business news
and developments, gave investors
a more optimistic outlook on "prospects for 1957.
The gradual recovery of the
market in recent weeks to the
best levels since January — both
industrials and golds touched new
highs for the year on the Toronto
Stock Exchange—reflected a feeling of confidence in the stability
of the economy.
Observers, said Investors were
encouraged primarily by news
from annual meeetings and annual
reports.
Industrials, and western oils set
Hie pace on the Toronto Stock
Exchange, which, after last
week's moderate decline, resumed its upward trend accelerating as the week progressed.
Refining oils eased steadily during the week, with the exception
of British-American Oil, which
ended with a good gain. Pipelines, which were hit by profit-
taking in early session, also eased
somewhat.
GOOD GAINS     	
Western oils finished with a
majority of good gains, but activity during the week was erratic.
Higher - priced Issues were the
best performers as investors lost
liieir fear ' of stories that the
United States would restrict
crude oil imports. Canadian
Husky .and Bailey Selburn made
the best gains in the section while
Devon Palmer and'Cabanga were
the winners among lower-priced
oils.
Trading in the mines continued
to be dull, although activity
picked up slightly late Friday. A
few low - priced issues traded
heavily, some more than 500,000
shares a day, Farwest Tungsten
traded more than 1,000,000 shares
Friday.
Mcintyre Porcupine, listed as a
gold but with wide other interests, was top winner among the
gelds. It followed the rise of Air
goma, which improved eight
points, in which it holds a substantial interest, with a two-point
rise.
URANIUMS SLOW	
Uraniums were , generally- slow
and eased slightly as did senior
base metals. Junior nickels were
strong but none were oustanding,
and copper trading continued
slow.
Index changes at Toronto: industrials up 7.17 to 474.35; golds
up .40 to 80.16; base metals off
2.70 to 210.53; western oils up 4.19
to 178.87. Of 859 issues traded,
35S advanced, 339 declined and
167 were unchanged.
Index changes at Montreal:
banks off 0.36 to 51.79; utilities
up 1.50 to 148.9; industrials up
1.3 0 290.9; combined up 1.3 to
243,5; papers off 10.68 to 129.64;
golds up 1.00 to 81.76.
Week's volumes: 323,086 Industrials and 2,988,733 mines compared with 323,086 industrials and
2,836,126 minesi the previous week.
Of 403 issues' traded,. 142 advanced, 133 declined and 128 were
unchanged.
U..S Jet Planes
To Saudi Arabia
WASHINGTON (AP) - The
United States sent eight jet trainers to Saudi Arabia Saturday In
the start of newv alr-ground-sea
training to build up and modernize
Saudi Arabia's defences.
Brig.-Gen. Dale O. Smith wiU
head up the new program. It is
the other side of a .deal in which
the U. S. last April 2 got a five-
year extension of its right to use
the Dhahran airfield, within 1000
miles of Russia's: Middle East border.
The Saudi Arabians have a number of British-built Vampire jet
fighters acquired from Egypt. But
their jet training, and Indeed their
air training in general, has been
on a fairly hit-or-miss basis.

Missing Nehru
Found in School
NEW DELHI (AP) - India's
Prime Minister Nehru, who likes
to get away from his security
men, gave them the slip for 40
minutes Friday night.
Police searched frantically for
him. Radio messages were -fired
off asking "any news of missing
honorable prime minister?"
He was found in a local school
celebrating a festival with the
school's tiny tots.
Nehru had received a routine in
vitation from the school but had
not acknowledged it. He finally.B_
membered and slipped away in
one of his small cars. As he.left
the school Nehru found police escorts and radio cars crowding the
area.
"Who asked you all to come?"
the prime minister asked.    ...
Have The Job Done Right
full responsibility for the action
by his deputy in releasing testimony before a Senate sub-committee which linked the name of
Canadian diplomat E. Herbert
Norman with communism.
McLeod's statement was disposed Friday when secret testimony on McLeod's nomination as
U.S." ambassador to Ireland was
made public by the Senate foreign
relations committee
Asked repeatedly by senators
about the part his office played
in giving the Senate internal security " sub-committee the go-ahead
to release the testimony about
Norman, McLeod said he personally had nothing to do with its release because he was in Switzerland at the time. But he said he
assumed full responsibility for the
action of his deputy, Robert Cart-
wright, in the matter.
Norman, Canadian ambassador
to Egypt, leaped to his death from
a building in Cairo April 4 after
the testimony had been made public.
My pool has worms. When
made,my usual inspection of this
engineering wonder ih my garden the other day I found half
a dozen or so big long worms —
all dead. How the silly things got
themselves into such a predicament I do not know unless they
crawled in through the overflow
pip'e^and flopped in,' for surely
they would have got enough traction on the cement to retreat before they succumbed to this watery grave.
*  *  *
I am trying to figure out what
on earth to do with them. Maybe
if I fish them out and leave them
on the edge it might entice some
robins to hang around—as yet
there has been no building of a
honeymoon1 abode hut in my pear
tree. I have even considered drap;
ing the tree with odd bits of
string, fluff out of the mop and
such as encouragement, but if I
were to supply a breakfast of
fresh worms that might be even
better.
*  *  *
Of course if I continue to get
such numbers of them I might
start up a business supplying
worms to fishermen. These were
good long ones, so they could be
cut in half or maybe even thirds,
at say five cents a worm—half a
dozen a day--that's thirty cents;
it would keep me in coffee money
anyway. I am sorry they are
dead, though. I guess I'll have
to put a cork in the overflow pipe
and see if that halts this wholesale  slaughter  of  angle  worm
Montreal Gang
Aifacks Youth
OTTAWA (CP)-Rene Jodoin, 17,
died Saturday from injuries suffered in a gang attack on a west
central Ottawa street.
Police were seeking at least 10
youths believed to have taken part
in the attack on Jodoin, his two
brothers and two other youths.
Police said the attack occurred
on the sidewalk in front of Our
Lady of Perpetual Help Church on
Lebreton St.
The trouble began in the church
hall during a youth organization
dance. The row began inside when
Jodoin, his brother David, 19, and
Maurice, 16, and two friends, Bob
Clermont, 18 and Michael Morris,
IS,' all strangers to the neighborhood, arrived.
Rev. John Kumli who was Helping supervise the dance, put a
stop to the row, Jodoin, his brothers and friends, left the hall but
were followed to the street by a
group of about 12 youths. The
fight; resumed and Rene Jodoin,
fell to the sidewalk, where he was
kicked until unconscious.
Rev. John O'Neill, parish priest
oi the church, was shocked. The
dance was one of a series held
in the hall each Friday night..
Father O'Neill said the Jodoins.
and the two other youths were not
members of the parish youth organization and apparently went to
the dance uninvited. He was absent when the fight broke out.

' I am far from lacking in wild
life around my place. One night
I found the beginnings of a wasp
nest hanging from the top of the
door casing. I had seen a wasp
on reconnaissance hovering around
the vents under the eaves and
peering under the asbestos shingles looking for some nook or
cranny suitable for his little grey
home ih the west. Finding no
corner, he apparently decided the
doorway would do.
*  *  *
I knocked it down and. beat it
into the house. Next day lo, .and
behold there was an identical
little globe started. I hosed it
down. A little later, by jimminy,
I am trying to figures, out what
add to the remnants, so I got the
Broom, brushed it down took a
cloth and washed the casing leav
ing no waspish trace., I think 1he
wasp has' finally taken the hint
and realizes I am not inclined to
his company. He surely was a determined thing though, but they
are' such undependable things —
stinging you without any provocation. Honey bees are, different,
they don't bother you unless you
bother them first. t .•■ ■     ■
