Organized five months ago by the Montreal Stock Exchange, the monthly payment plan gives the average wage - earner the opportunity to invest in blue chip stocks. The investor makes a 20-per-cent down payment on his chosen stock with any mem- ber firm of the exchange and pays the remainder in equal consecutive monthly pay- ments minus the dividends his stock accrues. An account can- not exceed $1,000 and is valid only for stocks listed on the Montreal exchange. A spot check of brokers dis- closed that while there have have been many enquiries about the plan few people have taken advantage of it The brokers say the plan needs more publicity and the Montreal exchange says it will organize a publicity cam- paign in the fall. The brokers are in agree- ment, however, about the worth- iness of the plan. One broker declared that "it is an excellent means for the average person to get into the know of invest ment, to save part of his earn- president Don Gillis to oust them.

OTTAWA (CP)--A record of fallout from the 1945 atomic raids on Hiroshima and Nagasaki is believed to have been found imbedded in an icecap in northern Ellesmere Island, Canada's most northerly territory. Glaciologist Dr. Geoffrey Hat- te mith of the Defence Re- sea Board said Monday he took ice samples from a 50-foot hole he dug in the icecap, melted them down and sent them to the atomic plant at Chalk River, Ont,, for analysis. He said in an interview he be- lieves the sample of the 1944-45 snowfall will show the density of fallout from the atomic blasts by end of the Second Dr. Hattersley - Smith led an eight - man expedition which spent 3% months in the area.

It is believed that ABC, third- ranking U.S. radio and TV net- work, is seeking approval to purchase a 25-per-cent interest in Toronto's only privately- owned TV station. The block would include the 17-per-cent in- terest held by Joel Aldred, pres- ident and one of the stations founders. ABC would become the first U.S. network to hold stock in a Canadian TV station. The BBG said it will be ad vised by noon Sept. 25 of all Canadian offers made: If in the board's opinion none of the of- fers are as suitable to CFTO-TV. as the one from the ABC, the sale to the network will be rec- ommended.

Both the Met management and Local 802 of the American Federation of Musicians agreed in a mem- orandum signed they will accept President Kennedy, who had| assigned his chief labor trouble- shooter to the dispute - some weeks ago, hailed the agree- ment, He said in a letter: "The Metropolitan Opera is impor- tant to the nation. I am glad we have all found a way for it to continue." Kennedy called the Met "a great cultural resource of the United States since 1892" and said that through its perform ances throughout the United States and Canada, along with its recordings and broadcasts, it has become "a truly interna- tional institution."

He charged in a statement that the legislature "is being aeld in contempt by the gov- ernment in power." Both ridings have been va. cant more than three months. Mr. MacDonald said the Leg- islative Assembly Act requires a writ to be issued to returning officers in those ridings allow- ing for » byelection, He said the chief returning of- ficer claims he cannot issue a writ because no returning offic: ers have been appointed in the ridings. "All of which emphasizes an- other manner in which the ful- fillment of the democratic pro- cess has been frustrated by the refusal of the government to in- stitute a system of permanent returning officers instead of pa- a day or two whether the opera stars still are available.

The orchestra members now get approximately $170 a week: Their union originally sought a raise to $268 weekly, later scal- ing down its demand to $248 and then to $220. The opera management had offered a three - year contract with raises of $3 each in the second and third years, plus other benefits--an offer that op- era officials said would mean about 14-per-cent increase over the three-year contract terms. 11 People Die In Paddy Field AOMORI, Japan (AP) -- A truck carrying a load of gravel and 18 persons, including 15 children on their way home from school, plunged 11 feet into a paddy field Monday.
