'] : 2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thursday, October 22, 1959 : SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH CANADA HAS a special in- | terest in the upper atmosphere | and has been carrying on re | 'search for many years. One of the means of studying the out- 'er atmosphere is the big De- fence Research Board radar laboratory at Prince Albert, Sask.

"Zombies" was the inelegant de- scription applied by some to the conscripts, SOME ARE ELIGIBLE In 1950 the Canadian Legion voted hr a narrow majority to |admit NRMA men who had |served in a theatre of war, Few {of them have joined the legion. R. B. Webb of Minitonas, Man., | re-opened the argument in the June issue of The Legionary by proposing that all conscripts of the home defence force be made eligible for legion membership, "Must we continue to go through life carrying this chip on our shoulder?" demanded Mr, Webb, "Isn't it time to pursue a new outlook and let bygones be bygones?" STRONG REPLY He got short shrift from Vietor D. Brown of Plaster Rock, N.B,, in the August issue; "I hope 1 shall not live to see the day when the legion . , , will form up on Nov, 11 to commemo- rate our honored dead with a conscript president and other 'zombies' in the guard of honor initating real servicemen's feel- ings towards those of our com- the cause of fi hl War Zombies Cause Stir rades who. gave their lives for, well" 'reedom In the current issue of The Le- gionary, Mrs. 1. Rennie of Clare. mont, Ont, writes: "My husband was overseas, but does that make him a differ- ent person than Joe Blow who stayed in Canada and is now a neighbor?" Legion officials said the end of the argument is nowhere in sight. Turks, Cypriots Stand Divided NICOSIA (Reuters) --- Arrch- bishop Makarios Wednesday sus- pended all work with Turkish The archbishop, Greek Cypriot leader and of the island's transitional eabinet, charged that an alleged attempt by Turks to smuggle arms into Cyprus indi- cated *'a lack of goodwill."

British officials say the truth is that there is no general hostility toward Germany, either in the British government or among the people. Whitehall can hardly be blamed, they say, if one or two papers persist in pub- lishing stories with an anti-Bonn bias.
