the 'cave-finders' club, members
of which search for natural caverns," she said.
"Residence halls are necessary

Most of the 8,500 Sydney University students spent three

Sudanese Go
To Polls To
day
Drums, Loudspeakers Used to Get
Out Vote; Coalition Gov't Seen
By HORACE CASTELL .
KHARTOUM, The Sudan (Reuters)—The Sudan starts
rotincf today in its first parliamentary election as an independent state with little difference between party platforms
and only tepid enthusiasm among the electorate.
As the election campaign by more than 600 candidates entered its final stage, the country was distracted by
Egypt's sudden claim to areas
cratic and Liberal parties with the
National-Unionists in opposition.
The outstanding personalities are
Saved Abdullah Khalil, the 70-year-
old premier and secretary-general
of the Umrna party, and Ismail
El Azhari, Unionist party leader
who formed the first all-Sudanese
government following the 1954
agreement between, Britain and
Egypt granting the Sudan independence Jan. 1, 1956,
PROBABLE COALITION
Of the two, El Azhari enjoys the
greater popular support while
Khalil has the backing of the
powerful Ansar religious sect and
business interests.
Domestic problems facing the
new government to be formed af-'
ter the election — almost certainly
another coalition — touch almost
all aspects of national life. The
976,000-square-miIe country is' in
desperate need of road, rail and
housing development. Educational
and medical services also are priority problems.
Voting will be staggered throughout the country until March 8,
when the counting of the votes is
due to start.
Says'Defeat, Occupation by Russ Only
Alternative If Case of Aggression
By WALTER DAVIS
LONDON (Reuters)—Britain said Wednesday the West
must use nuclear weapons against a major Soviet aggression
even if the Russians refrain from using them.
Defence Minister Duncan Sandys said the alternative
is "defeat, and occupation." He was opening a two-day defence debate in the House of Commons.
"It is really no good mincing matters," he said. Some
people had been shocked by his recent annual report on
defence spelling out the policy of nuclear retaliation even
if Russia used only conventional arms.
But without nuclear retaliation, Russia's superior conventional forces "are bound
to be successful."
A Western built-up of conventional arms would be a "stupendous" drain on manpower, money
and industry.
Sandys said that the more
these "ugly choices" are studied
the more it is realized that the
only sensible way out is comprehensive disarmament.
BRITAIN SHOCKED
George Brown, chief Labor
party spokesman on defence said
Britain- was shocked by Sandys'
almost complete reliance on "the
weapon of mass suicide."
He presented a motion to be
voted on tonight which criticizes
the government defence program
including the agreement on building British bases for American-
supplied rockets without awaiting
the outcome of an East - West
summitt conference.
Sandys declared the government's reliance on nuclear weap
ons "is the accepted and well-
established strategy of NATO
and it is by this method that peace
had been preserved during the
last decade."
"The West will never start a
war against Russia. It is equally
obvious that no one in his senses
would think of launching a nu
clear  counter-offensive  to   deal poses only."
with some minor incursion or an
accidental border incident.
STRIKE OR SUBMIT
. "If on the other hand Russia
with her incomparably larger
conventional forces, were to
launch an all-out conventional attack, then the Western allies
would have the choice of striking
back with nuclear weapons or of
submitting to defeat and occupation."
Amid cheers, he added: "To
me, it is inconceivable that the
free peoples would meekly surrender their liberties without a
fight, whatever the consequences."
Sandys said he feels sure that
Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev
"is the last person in the world
to resent or be put off by plain
speaking."
He rejected the Labor call to
halt preparation of the missile
bases until after a summit meeting.   ;
"We do not feel that a gesture
of this kind will have any; practical effect."    •
Russia, he added, is going
ahead with its own rocket plans.
Earlier, Sandys said: "There
is nothing I wish for more ardently than to see the world disarm, right down to the level
needed for internal security pur-
Two Near Death
After Shootings
PRINCE GEORGE, B.C. (CP)-
Two Prince George men were near
death late Wednesday after a
double shooting earlier in the business district of this north-central
British Columbia centre,.
R. Lome McCruish, partner in
an insurance adjusting company,
was shot in the stomach with a
12-gauge shotgun, wielded by a
man who invaded his private business office.
Five minutes later, on a street
eight blocks away, Herbert L.
Clark apparently fired a bullet
from a .38-calibre revolver into his
own head, RCMP said.
Late Wednesday hospital authorities reported McCruish was in critical condition after a two-hour operation. Clark, they said, was only
"hanging on," with slim prospects
of surviving.
Both men were believed to be
about 35 years of age. McCruish,
who had lived in this city for at
least four years, is married and
the father of three small children.
Clark was employed in a chartered accountant's office next door to
the McCruish and Barton Insurance Company, police said.
An extensive highway program in the Nelson-Creston
area was outlined by Highways Minister P. A. Gaglardi
in a speech in the legislature Wednesday.
Proposed construction for the next fiscal year includes
a start on the Trail Bridge, continued reconstruction of South
Slocan road, and a new contract to be called for work on
the east end of the Creston-Salmo cutoff. Further work is
scheduled for the Nelson-Kaslo, the Harrop-Procter and the
Castlegar airport roads. Riondel townsite road and CreBton
orchard roads will be proceeded with and will include surfacing.

March 31.
"They will tell Parliament what

"Any beneficial legislation the
Tories now are talking about will

pace."
The only guarantee of action in.
the next Parliament, Mr. Knowles
said, "lies in the CCF, the party
that has always fought for your
interests."
"With the CCF in power you will
get action on pensions, health,
housing, labor legislation and farm
security, or with the CCF greatly
strengthened in Parliament you
will get a continuing fight to win
these things."

. Only the voting will show
whether this has influenced the
balance between the two main
parties — the National Unionists
and Umrna.
Observers believe that Unionist
simporters who swung to Umrna
when the Egyptians made their
claim have gone back to the Unionists now that Egypt has postponed
consideration of the dispute until
after the election.
USE SYMBOLS
Drums in the largely Negroid
and pagan south and the blaring
of loudspeakers on hired taxis in
the predominantly Arab and Moslem north accompanied the final
campaigning.
The electorate totals about 2,-

population of 10,500,000.

Ailing Strijdom
Unknown Quantity
By LYNN IIEINZERLING
JOHANNESBURG (AP) - With
a general election* less than two
months away, Prime Minister Johannes Strijdom's role in the future leadership of South Africa is
a question mark.
The ailing Strijdom, who in three
years a sprime minister has pushed through Parliament an assortment of racial legislation designed to maintain the white man's
dominant position in South Africa, has been silent and inactive
tn political affairs for nearly three
months.
Strijdom cancelled all engagements last December on his physician's advice. He is reported
progressing well but sees only his
closest advisers and friends.
But opposition leaders and' apparently some of the leaders of
Strijdom's own National party are
beginning to speculate on his successor in the event the Nationalists are returned to power in April
16 elections and Strijdom decides
he must resign.
There is general belief here that
the Nationalists will win another
five-year mandate. The question of
a successor to Strijdom thus becomes pertinent — particularly
because one of the leading contenders is perhaps the most controversial figure in the country,
Dr. Hendrik F. Verwoerd, minister
of native affairs.
Dr. Verwoerd takes an uncompromising stand for complete separation of the races in South Africa and the return of Africans to
tribal status. As deputy to Strijdom Dr. Verwoerd is first in line
to head the party if Strijdom resigns.
Davenport Testifies Alterations
Evident in Schultz Record Book
By H. L. JONES
Canadian Press Staff Writer
VANCOUVER (CP) - Testimony about alterations of the records of an accused company and
arrangements for a split of commissions on B.C. government business was given Wednesday by a
crown witness in the Sommers
bribery-conspiracy hearing.
George H. Davenport, one-time
accountant for the C. D. Schultz
Company Limited, made more
than a dozen identifications of instances in a company record book
where he said he could detect "alterations or obliterations." He
said the changes were made about
February or "March,  1955.
Taking the stand in the 10th day
of the preliminary hearing of
charges against former lands and
forest minister Robert Sommers
and others, Davenport also   told
of a split-commission arrangement
between the Schultz Company and
Pacific Coast Services Limited,
another of the accused. He said
Pacific was to receive five per
cent of all commissions the Schultz
Company got on government business.
The witness testified further
tha.t C. D. Schultz, head of the
Schultz Company, had once told
him that a column of figures
headed "other" in a company record referred to Mr. Sommers who
then was minister. In the record
shown him this column contained
entries totalling $1,502.95 at October, 1954.
At one point in the hearing before Magistrate Oscar Orr,
Schultz counsel Alfred Bull suggested Mr. Schultz. might have
told Davenport that a certain
$1,000 allegedly passed to Som
mers was for "campaign funds."
"I do not recall him saying that,"
Davenport replied.
"But it is a possibility though,"
questioned the counsel.
"It might have been," the witness admitted.
He said he could not recall the
exact words of Iris conversation
with Schultz, but the head of the
Schultz firm had told him that Uie
$1,000 had been passed to Sommers "in some way." He was repeatedly questioned about the
phrase "in some way" by the defence but could add nothing further.
During the day Davenport identified many ledger cheques and
vouchers now held by the crown
as,evidence in the case. But most
times he was not asked to explain
their import.
In his preliminary talk, Mr.
Gaglardi urged visitors to travel
over British Columbia and' said "I
again would like to take this opportunity of exhorting all of the
travelling public to travel over
B.C. this year and see lor themselves the beauties and the privileges that are being offered."
"We will do our best to see that
the highway system is in as good
shape as possible so that the travelling public is well accommodated and every effort will be
made by my men to make the trip
a pleasant one."
"At this point I would like to pay
tribute to our men. We have received numerous letters commending the courtesy of some of our
employees in helping out the tourists and the motorists and for this
I am personally grateful. This ap1
plies to both inside' and outside
workers."
Department of Highways has
over 45 contracts operating at this
time and is administering another
four or five toll bridge contracts,
to keep employment at a high
level.
"Another thing that has been
kicked around considerably on
the floor of this house is of a personal nature — my church.
"I want to openly state very
emphatically that my church work
has nothing to do with the department of highways."
In the administration of the department it is necessary to spend
a considerable amount of time in
<the field. Hence the criticism
about my much travelling, my
airplanes and my expenses. But
the results of this are self-evident
Since I have chosen to travel extensively and continuously, it is
a proven fact that the efficiency
of my department has increased
by easily 100 per cent.
"This   coming  year  will   Bee
the major portion  of highways
money  being  spent  on  Trans-
.Canada Highway and we   will
'endeavor to complete lt by 1960."
Mr; Gaglardi next gave grand
totals of highways let during 1957-
58, which amounted to 141.25 miles
and grand totals of all highways
built during the period which
amounted to 169.44 miles.
A breakdown of field surveys to
be completed in East Kootenay
this year were as follows: Southern Transprovincial highway, 23
miles; Kootenay • Columbia highway, 51 miles.
PROPOSED BRIDGES
Proposed bridge construction in
the Kootenays for 1958-59 were:
Christina Creek, in the Grand
Forks-Greenwood district; Cascade
Upper, Grand Forks - Greenwood
district; Lost Creek, Nelson-Creston; Upper Annable Underpass,
Rossland-Trail; Trail bridge, Rossland-Trail. ,
General Bridges in progress during 1957-58 in this district were at
Sanca Creek and Old Channel Koo-
.tenay River, both in the Nelson-
Creston district.

Gov't Votes
$2 Million for
Pay Increase
VICTORIA (CP) -The government passed its first money vote
Wednesday — a $2,025,000 supplementary vote to pay for the pay
increase promised the civil servants last July.
WASHOUTS ON THE TRAIL-CASTLEGAR ROAD, near Kinnaird, did this damage to the CPR railway tracks. Waters rushed
through a narrow gap to bite into the track footings and left the
tracks suspended over a considerable chasm, above. A Canadian
Pacific Railway work train pulled into the Kinnaird area Wednesday to start the long job of filling in the two serious track washouts
on toe lint from Kimberley to Trail. Department of highways
crews were also at work repairing two large road washouts, which
also occurred early Tuesday as the result of several days of steady
rain. Detours have been established around the washouts. The CPR
line, which carries ore from Sullivan Mine to the Consolidated
Mining and Smelting Company operations at Trail, is expected to
be ont for a few days. Hospital authorities said here that three
people injured as a result of the washouts are "coming along
nk»ly."-Photoi by G. C. Pettitt.
trlct vote roads for the 1958-59
fiscal year were given for the
Kootenays as follows: Columbia
$141,000; Cranbrook $12 6,000;
Fernie $128,000; Kaslo - Slocan
$157,00;  Nelson • Creston $216,-
000; Rossland-Tnall $126,000.
Total mileage of road in British
Columbia   is   23,000.   About   1500
miles are little more than trails
and another 9200 miles come by
the description of road honestly
but they are dirt surface. The rest
are improved roads including the
very highest standard paved highways,  good gravel roads, lower
standard  pavement  and  graded
country roads.
About 3500 miles are paved and
some 2500 of this high standard
completed in recent years..
EMPLOYS 4500
At peak periods (he B.C. Department of Highways employs
about 4500 persons, one for every
100 vehicles now registered in the
province.
In the past six fiscal years (1952-
53 to 1957-58), British Columbia
has spent some $320,000,000 on its
highways and bridges, including
both capital and maintenance.
"Equally well received and most
warmly welcomed was the completion and opening of the second
and third undertakings of the Authority — that is, the Oak Street
and Middle Arm Bridges, and the
Nelson Bridge. The Oak Street
System has proved a tremendous
asset to the movement of traffic
between the City of Vancouver
and the Townsite of Richmond and
the Airport. The Nelson Bridge,
which replaced the ferry that
served the district so well for
many years, has heralded the beginning of a, new era for the people
of the Nelson district."
Stumping With
The Leaders
KIMBERLEY (CP) - The Liberals and Progressive Conservatives are so busy trying to blame
each other for unemployment that
the economic facts of the situation
are being "sedulously ignored,"
CCF Leader M. J. Coldwell said
Wednesday night.
Campaigning for the March 81
federal general election, Mr. Cold-
well said:'
"The fact is that periodic large
scale unemployment is an integral
and continuing part of the 'type of
unplanned economy to which both
old-line parties' are wedded and
unless a fundamentally new approach is taken, unemployment will
continue to plague the economy.
"So it is time to cut through Hie
smoke-screen, to put an end to the
political trickery.
"Nothing less than a fundamental reorganization of the economy,
nothing less than a program of
social and economic planning
through public agencies, democratically controlled through Parliament, will suffice to deal with the
situation."
Mr. Coldwell said only the OCF
program is. designed to do that.
"Therefore the CCF is the only
real alternative, the only alternative to the old-line parties which
are blind of vision and bankrupt
of policy."
OFFERS FARMERS HOPE
STONY PLAIN, Alta. (CP) -
Lester B. Pearson told this Alberta farming community Wednesday it would be "pretty close to
the front lines" if a third "and
last" world war broke out.
The Liberal leader said he agrees
that Canada's framers have not
shared in the country's general
post-war prosperity.
He hoped to offer some possible
solutions but wanted to be "pretty
sure of what I am saying" before
he put any proposals forward. He
didn't want to make any promises
he could not fulfil and he did not
want to get the farmers into a
position where they were producing huge surpluses which could
not be sola.
But even more important than
the farmers' cost-price squeeze
and the problems of unemployment was the desire for peace,
for without peace, "nothing else
would matter very much."
At Edmonton Wednesday night
he said that if he becomes prime
minister he will create a market
at Montreal for Canadian oil if the
United States continues to restrict
oil imports from Canada. Most
oil' in Eastern Canada now is imported.
The Liberal leader, addressing
a rally here, said also that he ia
opposed to price discrimination
against Canadian consumers. He
would make sure that Canadians
did not pay a higher price for oil
and natural gas than prices
charged to American consumers
of the Canadian products.
IGNORE FARMER
VIKING, Alta. (CP) - Social
Credit Leader Solon Low said Wednesday the Progressive Conservatives "turned their backs" on the
western farmer after promising
they would give him a fair deal.
"The Conservatives are trying to
make the farmers believe that they
really did something for them when
they brought in . . . the bill to
stabilize the prices of agricultural .
products."
He said any real improvement
in the farmers' marketing and
price position can be attributed
to "what the Liberals and Conservatives scornfully call t'h e
"splinter" parties.
RIMOUSKI, Que. (CP) - Prime
Minister Diefenbaker Wednesday
night dropped an indirect hint that
he will increase Quebec's representation in the federal cabinet if
his Progressive Conservative government is re-elected with strong
Quebec support.
"You have it in your power —
and I know that you understand
me well when I say this—to surround me with the talented lieutenants I need to direct the destinies
of our/ country," he told an audience of more than 1200 here.
Quebec should be able to speak
with a strong voice in the Commons.
"You must send a large group
of Conservative members to the
Parliament of the nation.
"Whoever is at the helm needs
the co-operation of numerous associates and' I hope that the province of Quebec will participate
actively in the administration of
our country."
Dowding Says CCF
Having Field Day
VICTORIA (CP) - The CCF
has accomplished more in the
legislature this year than in any
other year since 1952, one of its
members told the House Wednesday.
Gordon Dowding (CCF-Burnaby)
said this year's budget debate had
been "a great field day for the
CCF."
"The Social Credit has had it
on the federal political field and
they are beginning to worry about
their future on the provincial
field," he said.
Mr. Dowding said it appeared
from daily proceedings the government was attempting to drag
the session right up to the federal
election March 31 so the CCF won't
have "a chance to campaign."
"I hope you keep saying that
next week and the next when the
night sittings start," Premier Bennett said.
Mr. Dowding said the CCF this
year had managed to change gov
ernment intention on the New
Haven Borstal School, psychiatric
nurses, Woodlands School for Retarded Children, the Municipal Act
and:
"We've managed to keep members of the cabinet from running
all over the country."
He said Don Wilson, radio announcer hired by the Social Credit
party to do daily broadcasts on
the legislature, was "a Minister
of Propaganda."
He cited the Alberla Press Act
which was promoted by then Premier William Aberhart "to see that
the press did exactly what the government wanted."
Highways Minister Gaglardi was
scheduled to follow Mr. Dowding,
and was to be the last speaker in
the budget debate that began Feb.
10. The legislature was believed
ready to hold a night sitting and
swing into the detailed discussion
of estimated expenditures in t h e
1958-59 budget of $284,000,000.

His companion had tried to warn
Mr. Perepolkin against striking
the match but was unable to make
him hear in time, both men were
able to leave the house and were
found in a dazed condition when
Nelson fire department crews arrived at the scene.
The explosion set fire to curtains
and other materials within the
room but the blaze was guickly
extinguished by the fire department.
Most aamage was received by
the front wall, gable-end and
chimney of Ihe house. The chimney had to be entirely removed,
but the firemen were able to pull
the wall back into shape.
A report on Mr. Perepolkin's
condition said he had received extensive burns but "was not too

A planned $25,000 expansion

No decision on the program—
which would cost the city $10,000

period—was reached but a committee of six was suggested to
study the proposal further. The
committee, to be headed by

BE REVISED SOON
When CPR passenger train
schedules are changed Monday between Vancouver and Penticton,
Nelson services to Penticton will
also be revised to connect with
this run.
The service is being speeded up
and rail diesel cars, which can be
operated in multiple units, will replace the conventional passenger
trains.
The new schedule provides for
departure from Vancouver at 8
a.m. daily and departure from Penticton at 4 p.m. daily.
The train which leaves Nelson
on Mondays and Thursdays will,
as from next Monday, depart at
7; 30 a.m. and connect with the
Penticton service.
Rail diesel cars have proved
highly successful in other parts of
Canada,, said CPR officials, and
Iheir introduction in this area
could increase travel Interest by
daylight through the spectacular

Nelson, B.C.
ceived by Nelson Chamber of
Commerce from Hon. W. D. Black,
MLA for Nelson-Creston and provincial secretary: "Deputy attorney-general and mayor of Nelson
have been corresponding re disposition of Nelson jail. Negotiations proceeding satisfactorily so
feel renresentative not needed to
go lo Nelson at present."
"The delegation which waited
upon the attorney - general
and his deputy, Dr. G. D. Kennedy, Jan. 30 relative to the provincial jail closure were given assurance that a government representative would he in Nelson the
week following the interview to
discuss with us the seriousness of
the closure to the city and entire
Kootenay area," Mayor Short-'
house continued. "At this date we
hive not been visited by a government renresentative."
RCMP SAY NO
Government authorities were
then of the opinion the building
might be shared bv the city and
RCMP but RCMP authorities said
tiiev were not interested in the
building.
The Feb. 12 council meeting decided to ask for a provincial government renresentative to visit
Nelson and discuss the matter.
On Feb. 14 Mayor Shorthouse
wrote Mr. Black: "I would appreciate vour valuable influence to
further the request of the council
and at the same time to give some
thought to the Kokanee Glacier
Park development which has been
foremost In my mind and in the
minds cf the citizens of the district for many years."
The mayor said tills park was
marked on district maps but tourists could not get to it.   '
"I had hoped that the department of correction would give
consideration to our request that
(ho provincial jail would remain
open for the purpose of providing
a base from which the young
and first offenders could be given
an opportunity to serve useful
terms similar to conditions. set
up for the forestry camps which
have recently been opened by the
government In four coast areas."
Mr. Black replied: "I appreciate
the council's Interest, ln the rhatter
of establishing a forest camp in
the Nelsdh area and you may be
sure that we will keep this suggestion in mind as we expand our
correction program throughout the
province."
a four-man curlers' delegation and
Mrs. J. D. Wallach, representing
the Civic Centre Commission. In
the delegation were L. G. Peerless.
Art Waters, R. M. Chandler and
H. Moore.
Main points brought out during
the discussion were:
1. Curling Club suggested financing through a $10,000 grant from
the city and five years free rental
of the rink. The free rental, based
on $3000 per year, would enable
the club to pay back a $15,000
loan, to be backed by curlers' personal notes.
2. Work would be done on a voluntary basis by club members,
thus bringing to the city a $30,000
improvement program at a savings
of $5000.
3. Any extra monies earned
through the increased facilities
would be turned back into the
Civic Centre. It was, the delegation
pointed out, to be a non-profit venture.
4. A new lounge, not to be licenced except during bonspiels, would
account for over half the expenditure, the rest going into improving
spectator space, the ladies' room
and kitchen, and the locker room.
Nelson's curling rink would be
a modern one, and up to the standards of ones in Trail, Creston and
other district centres, Mr. Peerless said.
Main, benefit of the modernization would be to Nelson's annual
Midsummer Bonspiel, an event
that attracts curlers from across
Canada and from many of the
States, Art Waters stressed. "The
bonspiel is something we have to
hang on to . . . if we have a nice
place to take the visitors, they're
going to be happy and come back
again."
FINANCING A CONCERN
But Council's concern was the
financing. An out and out grant
would have to be made Ihis year,
and the Civic Centre Commission
for the next five years would be
without the annual $3000 rental.
"And this is not. what we consider
a fair rental." Mrs. Wallach pointed out. "We wanted $3500 this
season." '
The difficulties of fitting thr>
"rant, into the budget was stressed
bv Alderman George Eckmier.
"Last year we sat and swcatcl
for hours frying to hoH the mi'l
rale. We took $200,00 off the estimates, and we had to raise' the
rale five mills."
Other things should be set aside
ln favor of the curling club expansion, Mr. Peerless said. "This
is "a most Important thing. We
(Ihe curlers) are doing a lot for
fills Citv, more lhan most people j
realize."
Objection lo subsidizing adult
sport was raised by Aid.  W. S.
Ramsay. "Where there are youngsters involved, like the ski hill
•Nelson's Centennial project) venture and the Rotary Pool, it's different. But I think adults should
pay their own recreation tab."
The alderman favored making a
loan for the entire sum, thus not
committing future councils or turning ownership of the curling building to'the Club . . . "I would rather do that than be forking out
$5000 or $10,000 every year."
Mayor Shorthouse said he didn't i
think the City could consider selling
the building; it would not be possible without a public plebiscite,
he added. The Mayor said it was
his opinion the curlers were the
only group using the Civic Centre
that paid its own way.    ■
Taxpayers were subsidizing the
Civic Centre activities more than
they realized, Aid. George Mermet said, stressing that if facilities remained the same, curling
would  "fold up" in Nelson.
"The $10,000 isn't too much.
Sure we'll be criticized. But are
we going to leave it and lose curling? Or are we going to go along
with it, as we did with the Rotary
Pool?"
The proposed committee will
work toward a "satisfactory" plan,
which it will put to the Civic
Centre Commission. The Commission's recommendation will come
to Council.

Make Driver Training Compulsory for All
ing. It would be quite likely that these
are the ones with the most accidents.
But we are all against driver training in schools. Teachers have plenty
to do without having another chore
which has nothing to do with academic
learning thrust upon them. They have
had far too many such things thrust
upon them ln the last few years.
But that does not mean that we
are against driver training. Far from
lt. We would like to see it compulsory
for all drivers before they receive their
driver's licence to graduate- from a
properly organized and recognized
drivers' training school. The passing
out examination for such schools could
be much more searching than the
present government one, and faults of
technique and temperament would
most likely be found during this training.
Those drivers who have been convicted of offences against traffic regulations might also be compelled to
attend school for stated periods — a
punishment which might be more
effective than a fine. And while we
appreciate the voluntary work done by
the Safety Council, we think it is high'
time the government did something in
the matter. Safety education Bhould
not be a matter of slapping fines and
imprisonment on people. It should start
as the Safety Council believes, with
the new driver.
Mrs. R. Haggen, MLA for Grand
Forks, is a parent whose children have
grown up and she probably recalls
with little pleasure the adolescent days
of her children. When she declares
that she is against driver training in
the schools she may remember the
days when who should have the car
was the chief source of controversy
in the family.
There will be a great many people
who will agree with her that such a
course should not be included ln the
high school curriculum and others who
will consider that even such a course
given outside of school hours is not
ln the best scholastic interests of the
students. They, will point out that at
that particular period young people
are mildly Insane on cars and driving.
When ln the throes of it they seem
unable to think of such things as homework, or even of staying at home.
Mr. T. A. Ross, chairman of the
traffic section of the British Columbia
Safety Council, is greatly in favor of
high school diiver training programs.
He claims that drivers who have been
through this training are far better
drivers with fewer accidents to their
credit than those who have not had
this training. This Is probably true,
but there is always the suspicion that
the boys who are anti-social and potential delinquents never attend the train-

Sleigh Hills Necessary
To the Euitor:
Sir—In reference to your editorial appearing in the February 20 Issue of the Daily,
News, we of the Central-South Nelson Parent-
Teacher Association executive, ■ have had
many phone calls from parents who heartily
disagree with your attitude towards sleigh-
riding in Nelson.
It seems strange that such an issue should
be made of providing suitable hills for children to use for sleigh riding when Vancouver,
Kamloops and Cranbrook do this as a matter
of course. We have a letter on hand from
Kamloops which tells us that their city engineer recommends areas to be set aside
for this sport each winter.
We find ridiculous the accusation that
this would be indulging children at the expense of adults, since designating certain
areas for sleigh riding would be as advantageous to the motorist as to the child. The
very fact that this is an automotive age
makes this measure more than ever imperative.
As to the City Council having the power
to ban the use of certain roads, a precedent
was already set when streets were roped off
for square dancing, thereby indulging adults.
There are several hills throughout Nelson
that could be utilized for sleigh riding without inconveniencing residents to any great
extent, as these areas would only bo banned
to traffic a few hours each day.
Wherover there are hills, snow, and
children, there will be sleigh riding and it
is up to us all to make this sport as safe as
possible. We fail to understand your comparison between sleigh riding and the horse-
drawn vehicle, as almost every child owns a
sleigh and they are procurable at almost
any store in Nelson during' the winter months.
In these times, when there is so much
juvenile delinquency, we were greatly surprised and disturbed to read an editorial
condemning such a wholesome type of recreation for our children.
We shall continue to urge the City Council to set aside hills for this purpose.
Central-South Nelson PTA Executive,
MRS. M. JURILOFF,
Press Secretary.
Canada's Assets Sound
Pressed by circumstances into a corner
professional economists, and some not so
qualified, often come up with an equivocation like "yes, but" or "on the other hand".
New Frontier
An American airman, Donald G. Farrell, has spent a week in a sealed steel
barrel, under simulated space travel conditions. As his time ran out he appeared
fatigued, but otherwise little the worse for
his experience.
That his ordeal was considerably easier
than what will be undergone by the first
man to travel in space is easily assumed,
however. That considerable factor, the mental hazard, was less.
It's one thing to sit In a sealed barrel
knowing that help will come on the run
at the first sign of trouble. Being alone hundreds or thousands of miles above the earth,
with no certainty of rescue, suggests strains
far greater than any Airman Farrell encountered.
Yet it's by such beginnings that new
frontiers are conquered. In the dawn of
the railways, less than 150 years ago, some
people insisted riders would suffocate at 15
miles an hour.—Windsor Star.
Forgotten Dupe
A self-convicted Soviet spy, Jack Soble,
Is under treatment in New York's Bellevue
Hospital prison 'ward for having swallowed
what is dsecrlbed as "a quantity of nuts
and bolts." How he gained access to this
material, whatever his state of mind, as
yet lacks explanation.
It perhaps can be argued that anyone
who will swallow the Communist party line,
as for so many years he had done, will
swallow anything. But beyond that his present condition illustrates the unhappy state
reached by another who served a forgetful
Kremlin too faithfully.—Windsor Star.
It was that way last week when President
Eisenhower made his prediction of an upturn In his nation's economy this spring. The
"if" and "buts" and "on the other hands"
were paraded in grim array against what had
been termed the official view at Washington;
but there was little conclusive or enlightening for the general public in that. The president himself made the significant observation that times will become normal when people act that way.
When one considers that the world for
44 years has been faced with two global conflicts and thejr prolonged aftermaths, stretching from 1914 down to the "cold war" of the
present time, it is difficult to define what is
"normal" to the human family. Certainly a
state of actual or suspended hostility cannot be accepted as an ideal to be cherished.
What can fairly be said to have been the
gain of the period is that to a greater extent
than ever before the inter-dependence of nations has come to be generally accepted. In
spite of international friction and extremely
national upsurges, society is still dependent
for its ultimate living on its degree of cooperation in world-wide trade. That Is the
barometer to watch.
While at present world trade is following
the slightly downward curve it entered some
18 months ago, it could develop that this process is more normal than the artificial boosls
and surges which carried it to unwonted
peaks in postwar times. Certainly the nations of the earth have nothing to gain from
tariff conflict and abnormal restrictions on
the ordinary exchange of goods and services,
one with another. It is a time, perhaps, when
Canada will have to wait for the patterns of
world commerce to become a little clearer
before again resuming the steady march of
progress which has carried it far up the
scale invthe general family of nations. This
country is well equipped to do that. It has
sound assets, a stable people and an innate
belief in the enduring values of its own inheritance.—Victoria Colonist.

Fireball   Explosion
To the Editor:
Sir—I just read your account of fireball
in Saturday's paper.
This was seen by several residents of
Silverton, at about 8:45 Friday night. It
looked like the giant headlight of a car making great speed. Its disappearance was followed by an explosion sharp enough to shake
houses in this town.

At the Canadian conference on education
In Ottawa, a sign read: Accomodations officer. It puzzled young and old alike. Were
the expetts introducing new spelling techniques, or was this—perish the thought—an
er.ror? Accommodations, as anyone who
takes the trouble to inquire from an elementary school teacher will discover, is usually
spelled with a double "m". Incredible as it
may seem, the cream of Canada's educationists had allowed the error to pass. This
should provide Johnny with ammunition
when he comes home with a bad spelling
mark. One can just hear him saying, "You
think I'm a flop as a speller? Just guide your
peepers over the mistake the big guns made."

That Wi££lin&' Line
A fellow in Wolverhampton, England,
proved his own guilt beyond doubt. Arrested
on suspicion of being tipsy, he was asked
to walk a white line. Whereupon he replied:
"I'll walk it if you'll hold it Still."  ,
In the above circumstance, this reply
has its humorous aspects. But, more seriously, It proves the perils of strong drink.
If a man under the influence of liquor thinks
a straight white line on the floor is wiggling
about, imagine what could happen were he
driving an automobile in traffic.
Not only would the highway itself be
weaving about. But the vehicles on it, would
be doing strange contortions, particularly
that which he himself was driving. This
simple illustration of the effects of alcohol,
by that souse ln Wolverhampton, indicates
why there are so many highway accidents
due to drunken drivers.—Windsor Star.

NEW YORK (CP) - Toronto's
George C. Metcalf said Tuesday
"courage and enthusiasm" are all
that are needed to banish the recession. •
"Put those business virtues to
work properly and you will have
no recession," .said Metcalf, president of George Weston Ltd., and
Loblaw Groceterias Co. Lid.,
both , with headquarters in Toronto, and chairman of National
Tea Co., Chicago.
Addressing a luncheon meeting
of the New York Society of Security Analysts, Metcalf held
forth a glowing picture of the
business future—especially in the
food business—and denounced the
theory of "tight money" to fight
inflation.
Near him as he spoke was an
illuminated semi ■ globe showing
the continent-wide scope of his
business enterprises. The firms,
with affiliated companies, operate
from coast to coast ln Canada
and the United State , and from
Aklavik in the Northwest Territories to Florida.
['escribing as "propaganda"
the claim Uiat tight money is the
only cure for inflation, Metcalf
said:
"It took three years of tight
money to kill the spirit that
sp irked our magnificent pro-
gress.
j "II will take more than a little
cut in interest rates, or a little
I easing of restrictions, or a Little
talk, to rekindle the flame. But
the answer is not so complex as
one might think. It can be summed up in the one word—enthusiasm."
"Inspired enthusiasm," he said
Is far more important than pro
fessional skill, talent, genius or
education.
As proof of his own confidence
in the future, Metcalf announced
flat Weston enterprises plans to
bo'ld 200 new/stores in its inter-
na'ional operations. He told a re-
poiter later that 50 of these are
planned for Canada.
He also reported that Weston's
195'' consolidated earnings were
$3.1 < a share, an increase of 12%
per cent over the comparable
figure of the previous year.

Many Women and Some Men
Undergo Plastic Surgery
By HAL BOYLE
NEW YORK (AP) - Cosmetic
surgery has become a booming
branch of medicine — and three
out of four patients are women.
"That is because women in our
culture are expected to be beautiful," said Dr. Robert A. Frank-
lyn, a specialist in the field,
"whereas men are expected only
to be talented and good providers "
Dr. Franklyn estimated there
are 260,000 plastic (or cosmetic!
surgery operations a year in the
United States. He breaks them
down as follows:
Nose operations—70 per cent.
Face lifting—15 per cent.
Breast operations—10 per cent.
Others—5 per cent.
FULLER BOSOM
But the amazing development
to Dr. Franklyn is that women
now look to surgeons to provide
them with the fuller bosom nature denied them.
"In another few years, if our
present bosom culture continues"
he remarked, "breast operations
will make up 50 per cent of all
cosmetic surgery.
"Formerly, the objective in
this type of operation was a reduction in the size of the bosom.
A STEP TtJJjCfiE
FU1$$E
DEWitt'VH
Now 99 per cent of the women
want a larger bosom.
"This comes about because of
a change in beauty goals. The old
skinny, flat silhouette of the high-
fashion model is out. The goal of
womanly beauty today is a round
curvy, healthy look."
ONLY 15 MINUTES
Cosmetic surgery has been
immensely speeded in the last
decade.
"A woman can now get a new
breast in 15 minutes," said Dr.
Franklyn, "a new nose in 10 minutes, or a face lift in 30 minutes. These no longer are hospital operations. They are beauty
parlor surgery."
The doctor, husband of actress
Vanessa Brown, has operated on
many film stars, but this type of
surgery today is gone in for by
the masses.
"The typical female now is a
24-year-old housewife who is flat-
ciiested and has some marital
difficulties." he said. "She feels
that if she had a fuller bosom
she could win back her husband
—and it often does. She feels
more adequate. Often these
thines are mainly psychological."
Although Dr. Frank'yn advocates cosmetic surgery for the correction of major physical defects,
he is annoyed by those who seek
it out of minor vanity.'
"Some girls want an operation
merely to give them dimples," he
complained, "and now and then
a man shows up asking if,
please, can he have a cleft in his
chin like Gary Grant."
Sees Danger of
Normal Child
Being Neglected
MONTREAL (CP) - The normal child may be getting "shortchanged" while the public seeks
out delinquents, a leading Roman
Catholic welfare official warned
Tuesday night.
Rev. Patrick J. Ambrose, director of the Catholic welfare bureau
of the Federation of Catholic Charities, delivered a report on the bureau's activities to the annual
meeting of the federation.
"We hear so much about delinquent children, bad children and
stupid children, and the amount
of effort and money contributed in
the hope of reclaiming and educating them that we might lose
sight of the good children and the
bright children, by far the major
ity," he said.
"We could ask ourselves if, in
the process of looking after the
delinquent, the normal child might
be getting shortchanged."
He said there "seems to be a
thrill today in looking after delinquents. We usually find countless
numbers of men and women who
are willing and ready to do things
for delinquent youths but who shy
away from doing things for the
ordinary, good, normal, whole
sale adolescent or teen-ager."

Recipes .
Dash of Curry
By MARGARET CARR
The Indian cuisine is renowned
throughout the world for its savor
and piquancy. A great variety of
spices are used in the preparation
of dishes, the selection of which
depends entirely upon the experience and skill of the cook. The
sauce, highly seasoned but not
necessarily very hot, in which the
fresh foods are cooked is colled
in one Indian language kari—corrupted into our curry.
Here in Canada during the past
few years curry powder has become very popular and rightly so,
for its delightfully pungent and
exotic flavor has almost unlimited uses. Curries of lamb, veal,
chicken and rice are fast becoming old standbys. New flavor
notes are added to dips, gravies,
macaroni and salad dressings with
the addition of curry.
In India where curry originated,
cooks prepare a differently blended
curry powder for each of their
favorite curry dishes. These old
recipes are jealously guarded and
passed down from generation to
generation. In this country, formulae vary depending on the
manufacturer.
When a recipe says "add curry
to taste," in general it is safe to
use % teaspoon to each cup of
sauce or liquid. You may go on
from there, but make a note of the
amount you like. Next time there'll
be no doublt. But do make sure
that curry blends smoothly into
sauce ani that it docs have a
chance to cook long enough to
blend the flavors of the 12 to 15
ingredients that go into the making of this popular seasoning.
CURRIED MACARONI
One 8-ounce package shell or
elbow macaroni, 2 cups medium
white sauce,, 1 tablespoon grated
onion, 1 tablespoon curry powder.
Cook macaroni according to the
directions on the package. Prepare the white sauce and to it add
the grated onion and curry powder.
Combine cooked macaroni and
white sauce. Pour into a buttered
casserole,' and top with buttered
crumbs. Place in 350 degrees F.
oven 10 to 15 minutes. Garnish with
crisp bacon strips.

Discussed
By PTA Group
NATAL — At the monthly meeting of the Michel-Natal-Sparwood
Parent-Teacher Association at the
Sparwood High School, the project
committee recommended that the
major project should be a determined effort to have a dental
scheme instituted. The response to
last year's questionnaire was affirmative in less than 20 per cent
of those contacted. However, it
was felt that the poor response was
due to a lack of understanding.
This year the committee will ensure that all concerned are given
full details. A letter from the
School Board informed the PTA
that the board is unable to participate in the financing of this project. In spite of this, the parents
should get full value of whatever
they contribute.
A discussion regarding the interpretation of report cards was
led by principals N. A. Gill cf

Thinking Day
WILLOW POINT - The birthday of their founder and of Lady
Baden-Powell was observed as
"Thinking Day", when Guides and
Brownies all over the world were
to think of one another.
Willow Point Brownies, directed
by Brown ■ Owl Mrs. J. Learmonth, celebrated Thinking Day
at the church hall. Parents, teachers and sponsors from different
organizations joined in the celebration.
The Thinking Day Fund came
into being at the meeting, each
girl contributing a penny to be
used for the expansion of world
guiding.
In the Thinking Day ceremony,
the Brownies formed a circle
around their leader, who had a
large tree foil on the table. Mrs.
Learmonth lit a large red candle
and placed it on the foil. Each
Brownie, representing a total of
countries, also placed a lighted
candle on the foil.
Mrs. D. Heddle, Mrs. C. Shannon, Mrs. C. Linden and Mrs. A.

Whilfon Wins
PC Nomination
OTTAWA (CP) - Fiery Charlotte Whitton, 60-year-old former
Ottawa mayor, returned triumphantly to nolilics Monday night by
winning the Progressive Conservative nomination for the federal
riding of Ottawa West. It was her
second bid for such a nomination
in a year.
Miss Whitton defeated lawyer
Osmond F. Howe. 58, in balloting
that gave her 1166 votes to 350
for Mr. Howe.
Since 1940 the seat has been
held by Liberal George J. Mcll-
raith, already nominated to defend it for the sixth time. The
constituency never has been won
by a Conservative.
After her nomination, Miss Whitton told a reportedl "I'll lick
George Mcllraith or ' leave him
with a limp for the rest of his
days."
To the some 3200 persons who
attended the meeting, she said:
"Come then, ride on, ride on, ride
on to victory."
A miniature battle of the sexes
characterized the earlier stages
of the nomination drive, into which
the constituency's Young Conservatives threw their weight behind
Miss Whitton.

KINGSTON, Jamaica (AP) -
Princess Alice, elderly great aunt
of the Queen, was given an anxious time by a hound, a terrier
and two mongrels Wednesday when
she appeared for a ceremony at
West Indies University,
While she and other dignitaries
waited on the university lawn, the
hound and a terrier took a fancy
to her colorful ceremonial train
and began a fight to seo which
would jet pessession. Two mongrels joined the melee.
University officials were about
to go onto their hands and knees
to meet the foe at dog's level. But
a policeman waded in and sent
the dogs scurrying.
The princess was unhurt and tha
gown undamaged. When Lord
Hailes, governor-general of the
British West Indies Federation, arrived a minute later, official dignity had been restored.
Princess Alice was a popular
figure in Canada during the yean
194045 when her husband, tha
Earl of Athlone, was Governor-
General.

Bishop Not Punishable
FLORENCE, Italy (AP)-The
public prosecutor conceded in
court Wednesday the Roman Catholic Bishop of Prato is not punishable for defaming an Italian ath-
iest and his wife by calling them
"public sinners" because they
were married by civil rites and
not in the Church.
Prosecutor Manlio Mazzanti
said the accusations against Most
Rev. Pietro Fioredelli and his
parish priest, Rev. Daniello
Aiazzi, "did not constitute a
crime since the bishop acted
within the rights of his Church
mandate."
The bi s h o p, first Catholic
clergyman of his rank to be tried
in Italy since tile Lateran Pacts
29 years ago, is being tried in
absentia, because "my prestige
and the holiness of my ministry
forbids me to come to court in
person." He also ordered his
priest not to attend.
The suit against them was filed
by former Communist partisan
Mauro' Bellandi and his wife,
Loriana. She said "civil marriage
is legal In Italy and I cannot tolerate being called my husband's
concubine.
■ The- case of the bishop of Prato
attracted widespread attention by
Italy's leftist press, brought
flareups in the legislature, and
probably will be raised by the
Communists as an issue in Italy's
spring national elections.
The prosecutor, representing
the state, asked the three-judge
court to acquit the bishop and
priest of the charge of defamation, in effect throwing out his
own case.
If convicted they would have
faced possible jail sentences of
up to three years, and fines of
10,000 lire  ($260).
In addition, the Bellandis had
asked "moral and material damages" of 1,500,000 lire ($2,500).

FAVORITE EVAPORATED
To Investigate
Treatment of
Korean Boy
SEOUL (AP) - A 13-year-old
Korean boy caught stealing at a
United States Army base was put
in a wooden packing box and
flown 25 miles before being released apparently unharmed, the
army said Wednesday.
Gen. George H. Decker, commander of U.S. forces in Korea,
said he "regretted the treatment." The incident is being investigated "and appropriate action will be taken."
Kim Chung Nyon was caught
by members of the 8th Army aircraft maintenance centre at As-
com City. He had a clock, cigaret lighter, flashlight, two post-
exchange ration books and $fi in
military scrip—forbidden to Koreans.
The boy was put "in a wooden
packing box-used for transporting
aircraft parts", and Maj. Thomas I
G. Jones flew the box in a helicopter to an airfield at Uijongbu, |
the army said. The size of the
box and how tightly it was closed
were not disclosed.
At Uijongbu the box was taken i
to a supply room and the boy, I
"apparently unharmed, was re-:
leased and departed from the air-
strip," the army said.
The Seoul newspaper Hankook
Ilbo says soldiers and Korean
employees heard sounds from the j
box and opened it. The boy was |
"whimpering and in feeble con-
dltion, his face smeared with
black coal tar, the paper says, j
and he was "forced to flee" from
the airstrip.
Waist-High Drifts Hamper
Britain's Transportation
LONDON (Reuters) —! Shivering
Britons floundered through waist-
High drifts Wednesday as one of the
worst winter storms in 40 years
spread havtc throughout the
country.
Scores of towns and villages
were isolated by snowdrifts up to
15 feet deep as the storm continued into its third day. Some
communities were reported running short of food as snow-clearing equipment battle to reach
them through the drift-clogged
roads.
Motoring organizations reported
"chaos everywhere" with more
than 100 main roads blocked and
thousands of cars abandoned.
Trains were hopelessly behind
schedule, some arriving as much
as 1J hours late in London on
runs from Scotland.
Several airlines were forced to
cancel flights out of London and
planes which did lake off had to
be delayed for de-icing. Scotland
and the north of England bore the
brunt of the storm,  but almost
every  part of  the  British  Isles
got a share of the snowfall. Buses I
had to be abandoned in the snow, j
Hundreds   of   children   slept   in
their  schools  when  their  buses ■
were  unable  to  get  through  to i
take them home.
Telephone and power lines were ]
wrenched down and a 92-year-old
woman   was  killed   near  Dover
when  wind sent the chimney of j
her home crashing down through
the roof.
FLOODS ON CONTINENT
Meanwhile snow, sleet and I
floods cut a path through West- j
ern Europe, disrupting road, rail I
and air traffic and sending ships
inMhe English Channel scurrying
for port.
Villagers near Paris barricaded their doors and prepared
boats as the" Seine and its tributaries, swollen by heavy rain,
rose sharply. In West Germany
the Moselle River was rising by
more than two inches an hour,
threatening the town of Zell and
a number of villages.
In Belgium, the river Sambre
broke its banks in several places,
halting barge traffic and flooding a railroad line.
Sleet and snow grounded aircraft at Paris and in the Netherlands. Heavy snowfalls and a
danger of avalanches were reported in Austria. In central Norway, temperatures tumbled during the night to 45 below zero.
Gales whipped the English
Channel Wednesday and storms ofl
England's southeast coast were
described as the worst in memory. Pounding seas blasted hu^e
holes in concrete sea walls.
At Le Havre. France, ships
were waiting off port unable to
dock until storms subsided.
The freighter American Hunter
8,433 tons, ran aground in the
Scheldt Estuary Tuesday night in
gales and heavy snowstorms.
In Germany, floods on the
upper Rhine halted shipping as
ships were unable to pass under
Ihe bridges. Flooded river banks
in low areas stopped ferries running.
The Netherlands reported some
minor breaks in dikes northeast
of Amsterdam, threatening small
scale floods.

Of Rights Says
Judge Sullivan
NEW WESTMINSTER, B. C.
(CP)—Mr. Justice Harry J. Sulli-
| van smd here Tuesday night that
i Canadians need a bill of rights
j to protect them from boards and
J bureaus with powers capable of
; oyershadowing those of the
j courts.
I    Speaking at a meeting of the
I New Westminster Board of Trade
j he  asked:   "Did you know  that
I t h e    Workmen's    Compensation
! Board has the right to assign the
! name  of  Harry   J.   Sullivan   to
i your  payroll  and  demand  pay-
] ment of my back salary?"
j    He told the more than 300 businessmen  present  that  the WCB
j "has the statutory power to decide whether I am your servant
and entitled to collect a salary."
He  said  that  because  of  the
I average    Canadian's    "inertia,"
, many  such boards  and bureaus
have  been granted such  "awful
powers."

Father of Radar
Tells Own Story
LONDON (CP)-The detailed
story of the development of
radar, regarded as one of the
great revolutionary discoveries
of the 20th century, is told in a
book just published by Sir Robert . Watson-Watt, widely
acknowledged as the "father of
radar."
The book, Three Steps to Victory (Odhams Press), describes
the evolution of radar—radio direction-finding and ranging—and
shows the immensely important
part it played in saving Britain
from defeat in Ihe Second World
War.
In 250,000 words, Sir Robert
fells how radar had its beginnings in curiosity about thunderstorms and their effect on radio,
and how wilh this knowledge as
a background scientists evolved
principles for detection of certain
objects through the reflection of
radio waves.
PATERNITY STRESSED
Three Steps to Victory is an intensely personal book, and British critics are mixed in their
reactions. There is ungrudging
credit for Sir Robert's achievement, but regret among some reviewers that he felt it necessary
to reopen old rivalries.
The Daily Express, for Instance, comments that Sir Robert apparently wants to establish not only that he is the
father of radar, but the grandfather as well.
"No claim to paternity has
ever been pressed so strenuously," says the paper's science
expert, Chapman Pincher.
In his partly autobiographical
account, Sir Robert looses a few j
shafts at Sir Edward Appleton,
now principal of Edinburgh Uni-
versity, who years ago publicly
disclosed lhat Sir Robert was the
only member of the team work-
ing on radar who wanted to patent the inventions.
The New Statesman, says the
book will remind readers lhat
objective scientists can also be
exceedingly subjective. '  i
IGNORED AFTER WAR
The magazine sympathizes, ,
however, with Sir Robert's apparent resentment that the pioneers of radar were virtually
ignored in post-war honors lists,
and had to spend 44 days before
an. official commission justifying
their claims - for financial rewards. Finally, they received
£87,950, of which £52,000 went to
Watson-Watt.
The lengthy book contains
many sidelights. One is that in
1937 Sir Robert went to Germany on a spying mission at
Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain's request to investigate a
report that there was a radar research station in East Prussia. It
turned out there wasn't.
The Scrls-born Sir Robert. 65,

company in Montreal, where his
staff are working on an Uiderw.v

they have lost all winter.
Rebel losses were put at about
157 dead, a ratio far below the
usual French claim.
French units have fought six
pitched battles since Feb. 23,
most of them in eastern Algeria.
France charges the rebels are
getting increasing support from
across the Tunisian frontier.
French officials speculated that
the rebel offensive was timed to
coincide with the French-Tunisian crisis, now directing attention
to the Algerian rebellion, which
is more than three years old.
TROOPS AMBUSHED
The latest pitched battle was
reported by headquarters Tuesday night. That was near Tenes
in western Algeria where soldiers
into an ambush and lost 24 dead
and eight missing.
The six latest battles were all
against large numbers of rebel
troops, an indication that the National Liberation Front (FLN) is
again committing Its forces ln a
show of strength.
The pattern of the clashes has
been roughly similar. French patrolling units have run up on, or
been ambushed by, rebel units
in strength, some armed with
mortars and machine-guns.
The office of the French resident minister In Algeria, Robert
Lacoste, charged Tuesday that
recent rebel captives had been
newly trained in Tunisia, some by
Egyptian and Syrian instructors.
The rebellion has also brought
terrorism to France itself. Some
30,000 police in the country are
now being used to put down at-

Border Cross-Examination Ends . . 1
Commission Told No Gas
Export Promises Given
By RICHARD ANCO
Canadian Press Staff Writer
CALGARY (CPI - Trans-Canada Pipe Lines Limited had no
advance arrangement with the
former Liberal government on
the question of export of Canadian natural gas to the United
States, company officials said
Tuesday.
They said that while the Liberals and former trade minister
C. D. Howe helped to get pipeline construction under way by
loans and advice, they in no way
promised  Trans  - Canada auto
matic approval of a permit to
ship gas to the midwest U.S.
The company ended nearly five
days of detailed cross examination before the Borden energy
commission Tuesday.
The commission, with special
instructions' to study Trans-Canada's plans for export, is scheduled to make an interim report
to Prime Minister Diefenbaker.
The Progressive Conservative
government is not expected lo
decide on an export permit until
the report is forwarded.
Through   the   sworn   testimony
of Trans-Cansda President Charles Coates, the commission
learned:
That the Liberals made no advance commitment on Trans-
Canada's proposed export project
through Emerson, Man. The government had indicated it would
wait for approval of such imports
from the U.S. Federal Power
Commission before deciding on
Canadian export.
That Mr. Howe suggested a
merger of two pipleine groups;
one seeking permission to build
a line from Alberta lo Winnipeg
and direct to Emerson, the other
wanting to build a Canadian line
to Montreal.
OPPOSED LOAN
That he advised the pipeline
promoters to approach the Industrial Development Bank for a
$70,000,000 loan for financing.
The plan later collapsed due to
oppoM'ion from major gas produce!!
That a committee of civil servants agreed the federal government ilould go ahead with construction o' fi35-mile section of
the tram • i-anada line through
Norton OnUrio and suggested
an $80,OOJ,oco direct loan be
made to tlit ompany. The loan
was repaid last year.
Witnesses of Trans-Canada answered all questions asked by
commission counsel Arthur Pattillo and chairman Henry Borden, both of Toronto.
They also told Mr. Borden the
matter of gas exports is not immediate, although if delayed
there was the probability that
American pipelines would start
serving present U.S. markets.
However, the loss would be temporary since American demand
is likely to grow steadily.
CONTRACT  SIGNED
Mr. Coates emphasized that no
advance arrangements were
made  with   the  Liberal  govern-
BIG BEN'S LIGHT OUT
LONDON (Reuters)-The light
above Big Ben which tells London that the House of Commons
still is sitting went out Tuesday
night while the House was in session. The mechanical defect was
restored after about 35 minutes
and the light shone until the
House session ended.
Foreign Trade Deficif Lower
ment guaranteeing their support
of exports at Emerson to Midwestern Gas Transmission Company. A contract has been signed
by Trans-Canada and the American firm providing for exports of
200.000,000 cubic feet daily.
The commission was told that
such exports are not vital to the
survival of the 3,280-mile pipeline. But they would increase
sales, allow for an average five-
cent reduction in rates to Canadian consumers and hasten the
purchase of the crown section of
the line by Trans-Canada.
OTTAWA (CP)-Canada's foreign trade deficit in January declined sharply by $44,000,000 from
the corresponding month in 1957
due mainly to a steep decline in
purchases from.the United States,
Ihe bureau of statistics said Wednesday.
The month's deficit—excess of
imports over exports — totalled
$11,600,000, about one-fifth of the
Import surplus of $55,600,000 in
January a year ago.
The bureau described its trade
dourer for January as preliminary and said reasons ,for the im-
poit deiline are not yet apparent. Detailed export figu?es would
be isnr/ec' shortly but those for
imports would not be available
for several weeks.
1957 DE1PICIT DOWN
The fi.de deficit with the U.S.
in • January  dropped  sharply  to
$58,200,000 from $127,100,000 a
year ago. At the same time the
export surplus with the United
Kingdom—excess of exports over
imports — eased to $21,900,000
from $28,100,000.    '
Canada's foreign trade deficit
in 1957 dropped to $693,700,000
from a peak of $842,300,000 in
1956. The deficit in U.S. trade declined to $1,064,200,000 from the
1956 record of $1,282,600,000, while
the country's favorable trade balance with Britain fell to $221,-
400,000 from $333,700,000 the previous year.
The bureau said that imports
in January declined nearly. 13 per
cent in value to $401,100,000 from
last year's record total for January of $459,000,000. This continued a downward trend evident
since last October.
Purchases from the U.S. were
down slightly more than 16 per
cent at $289,600,000, compared
with the all-time January peak oi
$346,100,000 last year. '
Imports from Britain in the
month rose slightly ta $38,500,000
from $35,700,000 but imports from
all olher Commonwealth countries dropped to $11,700,000 from
$16,300,000. Purchases from other
foreign countries were up at $61,-
300,000 compared with $60,900,000.
Canadian exports to all countries in January declined by 3.5
per cent to $389,500,000 from
$403,400,000 in the corresponding
monlh last year. Shipments to the
U.S. rose to $231,400,000 from
$219,000,000 but sales to Britain
fell to $60,400,000 from $63,800,-
000.
Exports to the rest of the Commonwealth edged up to $22,800,-
000 from $21,000,000 but there was
a sharp decline to all other foreign countries, with sales falling
to  $74,900,000  from  $99,600,000.

There can' be no doubt that Floyd is currently top
man in the heavyweight division. He would kick billy-be-
darned out of Eddie Macrien or Zora Folley and he would
chase Alex Miteff and the rest of the polite heavyweight
challengers right out of the ring.
But there is no proof of his superiority. He is undisputed
king of Tommy Jackson and Pete Rademacher and Archie
Moore, but Jackson is a simpleton who has taken too many
punches on the head, Rademacher is an amateur with a
professional outlook, and Moore is an old man.
At present, there is no backing to the belief that
boxing is having a tough time. More youngsters are fighting

Patterson has everything on his
side. He is young, strong, able to
punch, and anoarenlly capable of
taking one without giving out with
the resouding tinkle of cracking
glass. And he rules over a division
that is fraught with nonentity.
It is commonplace among word-
Jugglers in this line of work to
claim that Joe Louis (or Jack
Dempsey or Gene Tunney or, for
that mailer, John L. Sullivan)
could in balmier days have belted
the whey out of all available competition. Net only is it commonplace, it is true. And what's more,
Ezzard Charles and Jersey Joe
Walcott could do almost the same,
albeit with less precision.
There is nothing in the way of
legitimate competition in the im-
SOCCER  SEASON
HAS EARLY START
Taking advantage of the mild
weather to begin the local soccer
season far in advance of its usual
date, Recreational Director Joe
Johnson announced Wednesday that
an exhibition match will take place
Saturday at Civic Recreation
Grounds.
Joe said he has made plans to
line up players of German and
Hungarian parentage on one side
against British and Canadian rivals
In what he called "a national international."
Nick  Hospitalized

DETROIT (AP) - Detroit Red

Nick Mickoski will be in hospital

The ailment will keep him out

trip to Montreal and New York.
A club spokesman said the infection developed after Mickoski was
injured Feb. 16 in a game against
Toronto.

Terry Lewis and Toronto's George

So, then, Patterson has a chance
to outlast Joe Louis' reign Of II
years. Especially if he doesn't
fight anybody.
It may be he won't fight anybody, at that. Cus D'Amato, properly termed "Cautious Cus, the
Cautious Cuss," by his associates,
wants to fight Joe Erskine, the
fighting Welshman.
On a good night, with two beer
under his belt, Joe Palooka of
comic strip fame could rip Erskine
apart. On a bad night, without, as
far as I know, any beer at all to
lend aid, I n g e m a r Johansson
(who?) did it by a knockout.
For Floyd's sake — and for his,
too — D'Amato should find a fight
against whoever or whatever
passes as a legitimate contender.
Cus says it's only necessary that
he should be able to hold up his
hands, but most observers figure
it takes more than that.

Twice the remainder of the program was almost called off, but it
was finally completed. Whether
there will be racing today Is in
doubt.
Bernard fell In the first race,
breaking its left shoulder, and was
destroyed. Jockey Charles McKee
was not hurt. The spectacular fall
occurred at the 3-16th pole.
In the seventh race, Battle Over,
one of the favorites, fell in the

game in Nelson, Trail has one
game remaining, that with Salmo,
which holds down fifth spot in the
six-team high school loop.
In two meetings this year, Trail
has won both. In league competition last month, Trail edged Nelson 20-19 on Howie McSporran's
foul shots late in the game. In Kimberley, at the first annual East-
West Kootenay basketball tournament, Trail eliminated Nelson 35-
31 en route to their tourney victory.
Dick Thorpe and Nick Manducca,
a pair of hot-shots who were named
to the first all-star team at conclusion of hostilities in Kimberley,
paced the Trail triumph with 13
and 10 points, respectively. Ron
Fabbro was best for Rossland with
10. Royals led 8-4 after the first
quarter, but the tide turned in the
second quarter., when Trail took
over to lead 13-11.
for final practices. Canada is due
today.    .
Korotkov said Canada's Whitby
team, which has crushed all opposition in a series of exhibition games
since arriving in Europe Feb. 4, is
stronger than Canada's last two
representatives in world competition.
Canada sent Kitchener-Waterloo
Dutchmen, Allan Cup winners in
1955, to the winter Olympics at
Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy, in 1956
but the team lost to Russia. It
also was upset by the United States
entry and finished third.
EASY WINNERS
In 1955 Canada was represented
by Penticton Vs, also Allan Cup
champions. That team easily won
the world title, whitewashing Russia 5-0 in the final game.
While rating this year's Canadian
entry higher, Korotkov thinks the
Russian squad is improved, too.'
"Our strategy is more advanced
now than it was a year ago," he
said.
Russia was upset in the cham-
nionships last year by Sweden.
Canada did not enter a team, pro
testing the Russian suppression of
the Hungarian revolt.
"The Canadians play a hard,
very hard game," Korotkor said.
"But we're not worried. All our
players are in great physical shape.
They can take the knocks."
Meanwhile, fans called on officials to be tougher with Canada
and the United States in a bid to
keep rough play out of the games.

Fifth Shutout
WINNIPEG (CP) — Dennis Rig-
gjn staged a sensational display
before 5789 fans Wednesday night
as he picked up his fifth shutout
of the season, leading Edmonton
Flyers to a 2-0 Western Hockey
League victory over Winnipeg
Warriors. -
The result moved Edmonton into
sole possession of first place In the
Prairie division, two points ahead
of the Warriors. The Flyers have
two games in hand.
Colin Kilburn opened the scoring
at 14:18, poking the puck into a
wide-open net. Len Lunde did most
of the spadework as he pulled three
Winnipeg defenders and substitute
goalie Julian Klymkiw to one side,
leaving Kilburn a clear chance.
Frank Rogeveen made it 2-0 at
17:47 from close in on a pass from
Patty Ginnell.
Bathgate scored once and assisted
on two other goals Wednesday
night as the second-place New
York Rangers twice came from
behind to beat Chicago Black
Hawks 4-3. The victory again postponed idle Montreal's inevitable
clinching of the National Hockey
League championship.
The Rangers, equalling their,
longest unbeaten streak of the
season at six games, padded their
edge over third-place Detroit to
five points.
Defencemen Lou Fontinato and
Jack Evans sent the Rangers ahead
for keeps with third-period goals,
but it was Bathgate who got them
rolling.
Bathgate, the Rangers' leading
point-getter, tied it at 1-1 early
in the second period on an angle
shot after Ted Lindsay scored the
first Black Hawk goal in the first
period. Ed Litzenberser then pushed the last-place Black Hawks
ahead again at 14:00 of the period.
It was Bathgate again who helped set up another tie, assisting on

Ski Slants
By SITZMARK
We're back from Kimberley,
where we saw the terrific competitive skiing in the Dominion
championships. We marvelled at
the precision with which the events
were run off, even under such ad
verse weather conditions.
It was quite evident that all citizens of Kimberley were behind the
celebrations 100 per cent. Store
windows were decorated with Centennial and Snow Fiesta motifs.
Almost every house had a snow
palace or snowman in the yard.
Of course, the mild weather had
taken its toll on all these works
of art, but everyone made the best
of lt, and I'm sure all visitors appreciated the effort, and also the
hospitality of Kimberley. It was
truly a show that the whole community had a hand in.
Getting back to our own ski hill,
we found the snow was completely
rotten. A few skiers tried the hill
Saturday but found the going
treacherous, so officials closed the
hill to further skiing.
Work at the upper end of our
new lift—strengthening tower No,
11—was completed and the lift had
another test run. There are still
several bugs in rt which will have
to be remedied before skiers are
able to ride it.
We had the good fortune to meet
Al Beaton and Franz Gable In
Kimberley. Al is owner and operator of the ski lifts on Grouse
Mountain and Franz is the ski pro
there.
On their way back to the coast
they stopped over and looked at
our lift. They really know ski lifts
and offered some suggestions that
we will incorporate into our setup.
It does look like our skiing for
the. season is finished. We. have
had some great weekends and
shouldn't be too disappointed. All
ski clubs in B.C. are in the same
fix.
We can now concentrate our
efforts on improving the Centennial
lift and the hill to make sure we're
ready for the first snows in the
fall.
Someone must have started
rumor that the snow in Rossland
is not skiable. I heard that their
hill had been closed, but, on checking, found them to be still skiing
there. If you still want to ski. Ross
land would be the best place to
find enough snow.
Also, this weekend at Rossland,
the Canadian Junior championships
are to be held. Spectators will see

We have just received a letter
from friend Ed Stiles. He has had
trouble finding enough Snow for
■Jood skiing, even in Austria. H-
intended tn stav over there until
'he end of March, but new exoects
he and Mrs. Stiles will be home
about the 15th.
Ed savs to save him some snow.
We can hardly do that, but expect
he'll get in a few runs at his old
skiing haunts on Red Mountain.

The battle between the first-

better or worse.
Of course, Leaf right-winger

Echevarria  Popped
By Champion Brown
HAVANA (AP) - Lightweight
boxing champion Joe Brown of
New Orleans knocked out Cuba's
Orlando Echevarria in the first
round Wednesday night in the first
live telecast of an overseas sports
event to North America. Brown
weighed 135%, Echevarria 136%
for the scheduled 10-round bout.
Two crushing rights to the jaw
did the job for the 32-year-old
American, who with Echevarria,
had been kept under heavy police
guard for the last 48 hours in fear
rebels might attempt to stop the
fight, a highlight of Cuba's national sports festival.
The first right dropped Echevarria for a mandatory count of
eight with the bout less than a
minute old. The second dropped
the Cuban champion for the full
count. The knockout came with
10 seconds remaining in the round.

Malmoe Buried
By Canadians
MALMOE, Sweden (API-Canada's hockey team in the forthcoming world championships defeated the local Swedish club 22-3
Wednesday night in an exhibition
game in which the Swedes borrowed from the Canadian side to
strengthen their lineup.
The Canadians loaned the Swedes
two players—a forward and a defenceman—and in the first period
the Malmoe skaters took a 3-0 lead
before the Canadians from Whitby
could get rolling.
Alt three Swedish goals were •
made by Swedes themselves.
Then the Whitby men started
putting on the pressure and at the
end of the period they led 0-3. The
Canadians piled up seven more
goals and wound up with a nine-
goal attack in the third period.
It was the most one-sided score
of the Canadian exhibition series
in Europe in which the 1957 Allan
Cup champions won all of their
15 games.
It also was the last exhibition
for Whitby in Sweden before the
world championships in Oslo, Norway, starting Friday.

LONDON i<;P)-Britain's Imperial Institute has decided to

The board of governors, at a
meeting, approved a suggestion
that efforts should be made to
have the films shown in British

The series consists of 13 half-

Criticizes Age
Of Suspicion
TORONTO (CP)—Rev. Angus
MacQueen, chairman of the
United Church board of evangelism and social service, Tuesday
night said university graduates
have no more grasp of literature,
religion or politics than the man
on the street.
Mr. MacQueen, a London, Ont.,
minister, told the board's annual
dinner the educational system is
not producing wise and sensitive
people. It would be a mistake to
swing toward an educational system which tries simply to turn
out more scientists than the Russians.
Ethical, religious and political
men, Mr. MacQueen said, seem
to have been outstripped in an
era which has produced the mass
man—an age of servility, pessimism, suspicion and fear. A trip
to the moon was not the greatest
adventure to be prepared for in
these limes. The supreme adventure was learning to understand
the human heart.
Aussies Abolish
Dictation Test
Detroit Missile
Factory Busy
By DWIGHT PITKIN
DETROIT (AP) — Business is
booming at Chrysler Corpora-
lion's missile factory.
I visited this big government-
owned plant 16 miles north of
Detroit last November after the
Russians startled the world by
putting up Sputnik I. Things were
humming then, but in a quiet sort
of way.
A second visit to the plant after the army put up the .American Explorer satellite, revealed
a big difference. There are more
workers. The operation is spreading from half-use of the plant and
soon will take over all the 2,100,-
000 square feet of floor space.
NEW TEMPO
There is a stepped-up production tempo on the Jupiter 1,500-
mile-range missile, big brother to
the 200-plus-range Redstone.
It means the present work
force of some 5,500 soon will be
increased to 9,000. About one-
fourth of the employees are engineers and most of the rest are
highly skilled.
Chrysler was awarded a new
$52,000,000 contract in January
for production of Redstones and
Jupiters.
Missiles require precision workmanship—they don't roll off assembly lines.
But, as near as they can, mass-
production techniques, are being
applied to turning out Redstones
and parallel assembly areas are
being set up to turn out Jupiters
in the same manner.
COMPLETE   PACKAGE
The 63-feet-long, six-foot thick
Redstone is forerunner to the 60-
fcct-long, eight-feet thick Jupiter.
The Jupiter's engine has a thrust
of 135,000 pounds.
Now both the Redstone and the
Jupiter will be packaged on a
mass production basis—the Redstone for the army and the Jupiter for the air force.
The Redstone goes out of the
plant a complete package—everything from the antenna-pointed
nose to launching pad and looking like something set. up for an
exploratory  trip to  the moon.

Ike Hints Tax
Cut Possible
WASHINGTON UP) - President Eisenhower said Wednesday
a tax cut is a possibility if, as he
put. it, there is a deepening of the
business depression.    -
In discussing U.S. business conditions at a press conference, he
used both the words depression
and recession.
Eisenhower said a tax reduction would not necessarily'be his
administration's last resort in
dealing with economic condititns.
He said a great deal of money
is going to be spent on publje
works, flood control, defence and
other domestic budget items. ■
Eisenhower said he looks for
some increase in job opportunities in March—a beginning] of tha
end of Ihe present recession. He
added it will take some time to
stop the recession but he hopes
business will be much better by
mid-year.
On other topics, he was questioned about his recent 30-min-
ute talk wilh Russia's new ambassador, Mikhail Menshikov.
Eisenhower said there was some
general talk about such matteri
as the possibility of a summit
conference.
He replied to Republican demands from the middle West that
he fire Agriculture Secretary
Ezra Benson by praising the cabinet minister as a man of courage and honesty.

Arab Unions
With Concern
JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israel reserves her.right of action
if Iraq moves troops to the Jordan - Israeli frontier, Premier
David Ben-Gurion announced Wednesday.
He was speaking at a press conference , in reply to questions
about the newly formed Iraqi-
Jordan federation and Egypto-
Syrian republic.
Ben-Gurion said Israel had not
been informed that the Egypto.
Syrian republic would respect the
armistice agreements with Israel.
Ben-Gurion said he is in favor
of a total embargo on further
supplies of arms to the Middle
East, but not an embargo which,
as at present, applied only to Israel.
He said Israel regards the
emergence of the two new Arab
unions "with some concern, especially as at their head are military   dictatorships."
WOMAN ELECTROCUTED
SARNIA, Ont. (CP) - A 25-
year-old Sarnia housewife was
electrocuted Tuesday night as
she vacuumed an apartment she
shared with her chemist husband. Telfer L. Thomas found the
body of his wife, V i r g i n ia,
sprawled on the floor, one hand
clutching a still-operating vacuum cleaner, the other grasping
a fallen lamp. Police were ordered to examine the appliances
for short-circuits.

...by M.D.B.
A nimrod and photographer, one
of our staff who lives oh the North
Shore, was surprised to see-deer
in the beam of his flashlight the.
other night. They were apparently
enjoying the apples ■ left-.on the
trees from last fall. Of course this
was right up his alley, and with
camera, flashlight and flashbulb
he shot them. He said it was the
funniest tiling to see for they both
seemed to shoot straight up into
the air when the flash went off.
What amused his most,: though
was their staggering, waltzing sort
of gait as they walked away. He
thought the light must have blinded
them a little, but I have a notion
it was the imbibing tliey had been
doing in eating those apples.

I see by the paper that Britons
are fearing the passing of brewed
tea as Ceylon considers manufacturing crystals for instant tea.
What slaves we have become to
speed when we can't even wait
five minutes for a good cup of
tea. Nor does it end here. For
those who haven't the time to
cook rice there is a kind—I suppose it is pre-cooked—that cooks in
a minute, and even potatoes come
in tins ready for warming. The
last straw, of course, is a whole
meal frozen in a little pan that
you just shove into the oven to
warm.

What is the world coming to?
Remember not too many years ago
how the little innocent, bride didn't
dare throw tin cans into her garbage for fear the neighbors would
snort and make snide remarks
about "these can opener cooks."
That was in a day when women
gathered the fruit of a large garden and over a hot stove preserved
the results of her weeding and cultivating in jars to line her fruit
cellar shelves. How times have
changed! When the day of the
home cooked meal passes, there
will be a great wailing and gnashing of teeth among the male population for sure, but with the following generation the little bride
won't have to listen to her spouse
extolling the virtues of his mother's
cooking—this would seem to be
the silver lining to the cloud.
* ♦  *
Yes, fellows, cooking is becoming a forgotten art, but do not fret,
as long as the little woman can
stir a cup of milk into the contents
of a package and put it in the
automatic oven, you'll get pies,
cakes and cookies and if she can
thaw out the packages from the
deep freeze you won't starve, but
il's rather cold comfort for those
who have a gourmet's taste buds.
Survey Predicts New Peaks
For Forest Industries
OTTAWA (CP)—Canada's forest industries will reach new
peaks by 1980 but will occupy a
smaller share of the national
economy, a survey for the Gordon economic commission forecasts.
■ The survey, issued Wednesday,
estimated aggregate production
of all forestry products will
reach $4,000,000,000 by 1980, an
increase of 120 per cent from
about  $1,900,000,0  in   1955.
However, it found that the
country's forests have sufficient
resources to stand the probable
increase in the timber cut.
"Indeed," the report said, "it
is the resulting impact on prices,
rather than the adequacy of
supply in the physical sense, that
■is likely to determine both the
size and the share of the market
which Canadian producers of for- j
est products will obtain between
HOW and 1980."
COST FACTOR
The report added: "It is not at
all certain that the requisite volume of wood will be available at
a cost which will permit it to be
sold in competition ..with other
materials and with the products
of forest industries of other countries."
The survey is one of 32 special
studies made for the royal commission on Canada's economic
prospects to help it prepare its
final report. The commission,
headed by Toronto accountant
Walter Gordon, made a preliminary report a year ago and its
final one is expected to be made
public soon.
A six-man forestry study group
headed by John Davis, former
federal trade department official
and now research and planning
director for the B.C. Electric
Company, prepared the latest
special report.
It said that while cost and
price considerations may limit
expansion of forest industries,
Canada   could  look   forward  to
a marked increased in both domestic sales and exports.
SMALLER PERCENTAGE
However, the expected rate of
increase in the industry would be
lower than that for the economy
generally. As a result, forestry's
contribution to the gross national
product^value of all 'goods' and
services — may " decline'" fr o m
about 5% per cent in 1955-.to
about four per cent in 1980.
Dealing with timber resources,
the report estimated that Canada
has 854,800,000 square miles of
commercially • productive forest
lands. -   '
The survey forecast an increase of 55 per cent in the Canadian lumber output by 1980, up
to between 11,600,000,000 and 12,-
100,000,000 board feet. Most of
*he increase would be in British
Columbia.

To Avoid
X-RaysGood
MONTE CARLO (AP) - Sir
Winston Churchill's doctors said
Wednesday x-rays taken Tuesday
were "very satisfactory" and
lhat no further medical bulletins
will be issued. This was taken to
mean Churchill has almost completely recovered.
The daily communique has
been routine since Sir Winston's
illness was diagnosed a \yeek ago
as pneumonia anrJ pleurisy.
The cbmmunioue said:
"An x-ray of Sir Winston
Churchill's lungs taken yesterday
is very satisfactory. There are
no abnormal shadows and there
is no fluid in the pleural.cavity.
It is not- our intention to issue
further bulletins." ,
Anthony Montague-Browne, private secretary to Churchill, told
reporters there has been "no
change" in plans for Churchill to
visit the United States in April at
the invitation of President Eisenhower.
Many sources doubt, however,
that he will be able to make the
trip.
Asked when Sir Winston might
be going back to Britain, Browne
replied that no plans have been
made, but "he won't be going just
for the moment."
OTTAWA (CP) — Progressive
Conservative party headquarters
has advised candidates to avoid
personalities and stick to "positive" issues in the general election campaign, national director
Allister Grosart said Wednesday.
Mr. Grosart, the, party's chief
election tactician, said literature
going out from his office to candidates urges them to stress the
"achievements" of Prime Minister Diefenbaker and the party in
domestic and international affairs
and particularly its national development and social security
programs.
"We have advised all candidates that the public will be
more interested in the main issues of the campaign than in personalities." he said in an interview. This had been the attitude
throughout the campaign.
"We don't have to go on the defensive or waste time criticizing
opposition personalities" he
added.
Mr. Grosart said the name of
no specific opposition person has
been mentioned in campaign material sent to Conservative candidates.
LONDON (Reuters) —- Britain
appealed Wednesday for a comprehensive East-West disarmament
agreement down to the level of
arms needed only for internal security of each nation.
Defence Minister Duncan
Sandys made the appeal at the
start of a two-day defence debate
iri the House of Commons.
He said Britain will work as
hard as possible for an all-round
agreement to end the world arms
race.
xBut at the same time, he said,
"we cannot afford to lower our
guard."
Replying to Socialist calls for
Britain to take the lead in halting her own hydrogen bomb tests
and production of the weapon,
Sandys declared:
"Nothing would more prejudice
the prospect of world disarmament than for the West to disarm unilaterally in advance of
an emergency."
RIGHT DOWN
He said: "As minister of defence, there is nothing I wish for
more ardently than to see the
world disarmed. I mean comprehensive, thorough-going disarmament, right down to the level
needed for internal-security purposes only."
Sandys then referred to his
ministry's annual report on defence earlier this month which
called for building up Britain's
nuclear and missile strength. He
said this report made it clear
that comprehensive disarmament eventually will involve supervision and control by a world
authority.
"I believe nothing less than
that must be our ultimate objective," he said.
Says U.S. Iron
Curtain Bars
Re-entry Permit
VANCOUVER (CP) - A Hungarian-born professor, described
as one of the world's top mathematicians, said Wednesday he has
been barred from the United
States by an "American Iron Curtain."
Dr. Paul Erdos, 45, a resident
of the U.S. from 1936 until he
left to attend a mathematical
conference in Amsterdam in 1954
said in a telephone interview he
has been unable to get a visa to
re-enter the U.S. as a returning
resident.
Dr. Erdos, who visited
B.C. on a four-month lecture tour
of Canada, said he was told before he left the U.S. in 1954 that
he would be refused a re-entry
permit.
He said he decided to go just
the same because "I don't approve of Iron Qurtains, whether
Wected by the U.S.S.R. or the
U.S." He said he has never belonged to a political party and
there are no grounds on which he
could justifiably be barred from
the U.S.
Dr. Erdos said he now travels
continually around the world and
makes his home in no particular
country. He said he would spend
several months a year lecturing
in the U.S. if he is permitted to
re-enter;
' He said he has received no official word from Uie American
Mathematical Society about efforts being made to persuade authorities to grant his request for
a visa. The society was told a
fund raised for the purpose by
Dr. Erdos' friends has been expended.

^mys Cheaper Foods
Check Inflation
LONDON (CP) - John Hare,
Britain's minister of agriculture,
says that falling food prices
may bring "compensating advantages" to Common wealth
countries in the long run.
C o m rn e n ting in a London
speech on the "alarm" felt in
some Commonwealth countries
over the recent fall in commodity prices, particularly for dairy
products, Hare said lower food
prices might give Britain a
chance to check inflation.
This would be a boon not only
to Britain but to all other countries "who have the same stake
as we have in the strength of the
sterling area."

Lazy Students
WINNIPEG (CP)-The Winnipeg School Board has decided
that lazy • students, 16 years old
or more may be expelled if they
fail to show improvement in
their attitude toward school
work.
The board Tuesday adopted t
policy "of expelling from school

prejudicial to the welfare of the
school."
A spokesman for the board
said there are 107 students of
this age in the seriously indolent
category in Winnipeg schools, of
which about 27 are likely to b»
expelled because they will not
reform.
If no, satisfactory improvement
is shown after a two-month probationary period the parent will
be asked to withdraw the student.

Chicago Battles
Runaway Cows
CHICAGO (AP) - It was
roundup time in Chicago for a
couple of hours Tuesday as six
cowboys and scores of policemen
chased eight  runaway cows.
The cows, headed for the stockyards, broke loose from a truck
which fell apart near the busy
Congress Street expressway.
Squad cars, motorcycle policemen and patrolmen moved into
the heavily populated district to
help corral the cattle. The cowboys, on horseback, came galloping from the stockyards.
The cows took off in all directions. One got as far as the downtown district. Startled shoppers
broke out with "yipee" cheers as
thev watched the chase.
Traffic slowed on the expressway and in other streets where
the cows roamed. One ran head
on into a car. Another suffered
two broken legs when it rammed j
a policeman's motorcycle. One
rested on the sidewalk in front of
a tavern.
After two hours of chasing the
frightened animals, the city range
riders captured seven. The other
stray was shot and killed by a
policeman who said he fired in
self • defence when the„ cow
charged him, ,,
