There are growing signs that, after 10 years in exile, the Na- tionalist authorities are becoming reconciled to making a more permanent home on this rugged island. They appear to be more ready today than in the past to | await an internal revolt against | + the Communists instead of trying' to start an uprising by invasion. This attitude has become ap-| parent in recent months, though | the Nationalists have not relaxed | their military awareness and are | maintaining a full alert on the off- | shore islands. | Among the signs regarded here; as significant are: f 1. A decision to re-establish on Formosa the famous Catholic Fu Jen University, formerly at Pe- king. 2. The re-opening of a number of banks for outside trading and! a concentration on the develop- ment of Formosan industry. 3. Plans being made by busi- ness houses to install more per-| manent plants and spend money on, new buildings. | With the prospect of United) States aid decreasing, more thought. is being devoted to the expansion of local production and agriculture. Factories for the manufacture of a wide range of goods are shooting up on what | used to be paddy fields outside | Taipei. The trans-island highway, a 120- mile trunk road, is expected to be opened to traffic in April. Policemen Change In Winnipeg WINNIPEG (CP) -- The trend | toward "compact" cars is one factor in the changing shape of | the Winnipeg policeman, says] Chief Constable Robert Taft. i Going out of style is the tall, | burly constable who came into his own in handling barroom bul- lies and unruly crowds. In his| place the department favors the| man who comes closer to the] minimum height of five feet, 10! inches. | One reason, says Chief Taft, is| that bigger men can't jump in| and out of today's low-slung, low- | roofed cars quickly enough. In earlier days, the force pre-| ferred its constables to stand! about six feet, four inches tall and weigh more than 200 pounds. | "Two men like that could take | up the whole end of a bar," Chief Taft said in an interview. WORK CHANGES | "A quarrelsome fellow could back away from men like that without losing face--he"d be con- | sidered a fool to do anything else." But today, a policeman's work is different. "A man may be riding a cruiser one month and be out on a beat the next. Our motorcycle | men spend the winter in the de- tective department. "We like a man who looks like an ordinary, successful business- man or tradesman when he gets out of uniform," the chief said. The ideal policeman, he said, | likely looks something like this: feet, 11 inches tall; 170 ; of unimpeachable char- and reputation; good in- and common sense, lerant attitude. Fine Organs Do Not Deteriorate In Age VANCOUVER (CP) -- Modern science has wrought many won- d -but it hasn't brought any fmprovement to that m®st versa- tile instrument, the organ. So says E. Power Biggs, the noted American organist, who was interviewed during a visit here. "We are coming to realize that you cannot build a beiter organ than those of the period of 1650 to 1700," he says. "'Albert Schweitzer said it back in 1906. The old ones are supe- rior tonally because they were made a certain way." Mr. Biggs says fine organs, unlike most other instruments, do not deteriorate with age. I! Phone Threals. For TV Firm OTTAW A(CP) -- Patrick Jo- seph LaMartina, general man- ager of Capital City TV, said Wednesday he has been' bom- barded by phone threats 'since his firm was "unjustly" attacked in the Commons by Murdo Mar- tin, CCF member for Timmins. Mr. LaMartina said one of his repair men was manhandled when he delivered a TV set to an Ottawa home Tuesday night and that Mr. Martin's March 8 Commons speech was '100 per cent responsible" for the man- handling. Mr. Martin used the Ottawa shop as an example when he said in the Commons that the govern- ment should propose changes in the Criminal Code to deal with "crafty and callous beats of prey" who make a racket out of TV repairs. | H LUMBER SHIPMENTS VANCOUVER (CP) -- Lumber shipments from British Columbia by water transportation dropped 8.8 per cent in 1959. Total ship- ments were 1,197,000,000 board feet compared with 1,314,000,000 of Mrs. Elzear Roy, 35, whose stomach powder obtained on aldrug store have been sent to Tor-'effects.
