PAGE SIXTEEN war vig) R- THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE MONDAY, NOVEMBER B, 1948 | Vue ST. 'LAURENT MAY ACCEPT OFFICE TODAY Ottawa, Nov. 8 (CP), -- Prime Minister Mackenzie King will meet with his successor early-this week to lay plans for his official with- drawal as leader of the government in power. A spokesman -close to Mr. King said the meeting with Prime Minis- ter-designate Louis Stephen St.- Laurent may take place today if Mr. King feels well enough. Otherwise it will be held during the next few days either at Mr. King's residence at Laurier House in Ottawa's Sandy Hill district or in the east block of Parliament Hill where the 73-year-old Mr, King has reigned 'as Prime Minister for an unprecedented 21 years. Expectation was that he would resign as head of the government this week. In the meantime, Mr. St. Laurent, who has been Acting Prime Minister in Mr. King's absence overseas, as- sumes the role of Acting Justice Minister. Mr. King returned to his residence Sunday from his mid-September trip overseas. Traces of the illness that caught him while in London still showed. As he stepped out on the rear platform of his private railway car, a crowd of less than 90 greeted him. Some were government officials and Members of Parliament. Mr. King had asked that there be no official reception. Members of the diplomatic corps were not pre- sent, Neither were many of Mr. King's colleagues in the House of Commons. "I'm so glad to see you all here," sald Mr. King, after he had doffed his black homburg and smiled. He moved slowly to his limousine. As is customary, he carried his black, gold-ringed cane and used it to steady himself. ; Observers who had seen Mr, King when he landed in New York Sat- urday aboard the liner Queen Elizabeth said he looked "much better." Mr. King himself added: "I haven't felt better since I left Canada." Cantabs Win (Continued from Page 1) Plowright (0), 612; Nancy Day (C), 435.

As soon as the election results had been announced, Miss Parkhill is- sued the following statement: ~#4To all those who assisted me with programs, cars, posters, and cam- paigning, and especially to my cam- paign manager, Ray Mozewsky, I am 'very grateful. I cannot name all of you, but you all know that I really appreciated your help." "To the members of the O.CV.I, whether you supported me or not, I wish to promise my strongest efforts to carry out your wishes as Presi- dent of the Council." "Our party was put into the Con- gress to get a student voice in stu- dent affairs, We will do our best to see that this platform is carried out. We will present a bill to the Stu- dent's Congress calling for the for- mation of a student-teacher com- mittee, to nominate candidates for the executive council of the Con- gress." Under the present system all candidates for Congress posts are gominated by the teachers of the collegiate. Complete election results show the victory of seven Cantabrigian ndidates, and three members of e opposing Oxonian party. While taking the majority of the council posts, the Cantabrigians lost the important positions of Vice-Presi- dept and Secretary of State to Ox- gnians Wilmer Crawford and Bare bara Plowright, = The Cantabrigians achieved vic- tory at the conclusion of a spec- tacular election campaign, marked bv evervthing from moose calls to mock funerals, Their candidate, President Margaret Parkhill, made a spirited plea for "a Students' Congres, not a Teachers' Congress" in her final pre-election address, and this plea for student self-gov- ernment is believed to have assured her election, Student Government The Cantabrigian platform called for a student voice in the choice of candidates for the Congress, And for free choice of association in phratries. Some of the members of the collegiate are said to favour arbitrary assignment to phratries as a method of equalizing the sizes of the fraternal groups. The Oxonians ran on a platform calling for Students' Council elec- tions to be held in the spring rather than in the fall, in order to avoid the pressure of examinations which follow the fall electidns in only a few weeks. The Oxonian party had also advocated reduction of the number of phratries to three, in order to assure full participation of each phratry group in all activi- ties, PLOT DESCRIBED Prague, Czechoslovakia, Nov, 8-- (AP)--A plot to steal the corpse of Jan Masaryk was described Satur- day during the murder trial in Prague, An officiul account of the "trial of Miloslov Choc said the de- fendant confessed he had been in touch with another Czech who was by Czechoslovak fugitives to dig up Matasyis jody.

Greeks Respond To UN Appeal; Delay Deaths Paris, Nov. 8--(CP)--The Greek government has responded to an unprecedented plea by the president of the United Nations General As- sembly and postponed the execu- tion of 10 Greek seamen who were scheduled to die today. Dr. Herbert V. Evatt, Australian External Affairs Minister and presi- dent of the Assembly, asked the postponement Sunday in cables to King Paul and Premier Themis- tokles Sophoulis of Greece. Evajt said the executions would seriously interfere with 4 attempts he is pushing here for a "Balkan Peace Conference" Greeks would sit down to negotiate with Yugoslavia, Albania and Bul- garia. The appeal came in the midst of a Greek. domestic political crisis. Sophoulis said today he will resign as soon as the Greek debate in the U.N. has been completed. The postponement was announced Sunday night in Athens by the Greek Ministry of Justice, which gave no indication of what future action might be taken in case, The 10 seamen had been convict- ed of subversive activity by a Mari- time tribunal last week. They were charged with collecting money from members of the Merchant Marine to be sent to support Communist leader Markos Vafiades and his re- bel guerrillas. At the outset of today's political committee session the delegates voted overwhelming rejection of a Yugoslav demand for censure of the U.N. special committee on the Bal- kans, Dr. Ales Bebler of Yugoslavia shouted that the committee had insulted Yugoslavia and cried "shame", Belgian Premier Paul - Henri Spaak, chairman of the committee, called for order and told Bebler to sit down. He deciared he would not tolerate insults to delegates. The committee then began con- sideration of a four-power western resolution approving the Balkan committee's report. Mass executions in Greece were protested earlier this year by Brit- in which the, | ain, France, Russia and Denmark, | but the Greek government rejected the protest. After 213 prisoners were reported executed during the first week in | May, Press Minister Michael *Alia- | nos said*1,320 persons had been ex- ecuted between June, 1946, and May, 1948, Red Leaders Celebrate Revolution Moscow, Nov. 8--(CP)--Russian war hero Marshal S. K. Timoshen- ko says "the peace-loving policy of our state is meeting resistance from Anglo-American war-mongers." He spoke on the 31st anniver- sary of the Russian revolution was celebrated. Speaking atop Lenin's tomb as the might of the Red Army paraded in front of leading Soviet politicians, foreign diplomats, military observ- ers and cheering crowds, Timoshen- ko urged preparedness. But, he said, the growing forces of peace "will not allow a new war." Prime Minister Stalin did not take part in the ceremonies in Red Square. He was said to be on his annual vacation. Timoshenko was flanked by Foreign Minister V. M. Molotov and Marshal Nikolai A. Bulganin, Minister of Armed Forces, in reviewing the parade of troops, tanks, vehicles and planes. Observers noted the emphasis on aviation this year. Jet fighters and four-engined bombers were con- spicious. = Group Capt. L. H. Randall, Can- adian air attache in Moscow who attended the celebration, said the parade on Red Square was "the biggest parade I ever saw." "It was well organized and the marching and order of the troops was wine. I do not believe parades are better organized sanywhere." N ear Sault Sault Ste.
