Some wept openly. Occasionally an old soldier would throw up a smart salute to his old chief. Some knelt briefly in prayer or placed flowers. Lady Churchill, composed in her grief, watched the solemn splendor of her husband's leavetaking for a while Wed- nesday night. Few in the throng recognized her. She entered the hall by a side door with her younger' daughter, Mrs. Mary Soames. Both were hatless and in black. For 15 minutes Lady Church- ill stayed under the shadow of the hall's 11th - century stone- work, standing rigid, hands crossed before her, eyes locked on the catafalque. At 8 p.m., the guard changed as it does every 20 minutes.

He migrated to Britain years ago to try to find the things his ewn country couldn't give him = house, a steady job,.a de- eent living wage, nice clothes for his wife. And he has the vote. There now are almost 850,000 persons in Britain who, like Ali, migrated here from the scat- tered colored Commonwealth. The number is growing by around 100,000 a year. As well as bringing the prob- lem of race relations, Britain's "dark million," as it is called, has added a new question mark to the orderly old ways of Brit- ish social life--the colored vote and the white '"'backlash." The question took on added urgency as Britain's Labor gov- ernment faced a new crisis of confidence--the defeat of its for- eign secretary, Patrick Gordon Walker, in a special byelection last week. White racialists la- belled Gordon Walker a "nigger lover."

As the CCA wrapped up its 47th annual conference Wednes- day, the idea of the conference was expressed by new presi- dent Neville R. Williams, 56, of Winnipeg. Mr. Williams said everybody in the industry would be invited te attend what would amount to a "self-analysis." **We want to find out about ourselves, look into the future a bit," he said in an interview. The conference might be held in April or May, probably in Ottawa. One outcome might be a more complete idea of what skills will be needed as the in- dustry develops. Some delegates say the indus- try is in a boom period, But Mr. Williams regards it as a boom period. But Mr. Williams regards it as'a stable expan- with the growth. of Canada's population. One topic was the Economic Council of Canada forecast that 1,500,000 jobs must be provided in Canada by 1970. 'The con- struction industry's share of this huge force would be 300,000," (Mr. Williams estimated. The industry now employs di- rectly or indirectly about 20 per cent of Canada's labor force and is expected to pass the $9,000,000,000 mark this year. The CCA is urging a "more effective 'building trades ap- prenticeship program": with more employer readiness to hire apprentices, national train- ing standards, and other steps to prepare for future require- ments. Provincial governments were urged to 'enforce' compulsory tradesmen's qualifications laws to raise standards of workman- ship. Delegates noted that the in- creasing complexity of construc- tion work had veteran employ- ees going to school on Saturdays to catch up with the new meth- sion that is going to continue ods.

Timmi ecooeursouun litical parties--Labor, Conserv- ative and Liberal--says it must have no place. Racialism is wrong, their party platforms unequivocally declare. But whether the politicians like it or not, racialism has be- come a strong enough issue to help break the political career of Gordon Walker--or at least to have a big hand in it. In the October, 1964, general election, which brought Labor to power, Gordon Walker cam- paigned for the seat in Smeth- wick, a Birmingham suburb where one person in 12 is an Indian, a Pakistani or a West Indian. It was in Smethwick that the provocative little jingle was first shouted: "If you want a nigger neigh- bor--vote Labor." "Smethwick rejects the idea of a multiracial society," the Conservative candidate, Peter Griffiths, was quoted as saying. The political issues of the election became buried under the fury of racial charges and countercharges between Gordon Walker and Griffiths. Griffiths denied having any- thing to do with the shower of "nigger neighbor" leaflets. It was agreed the pamphlets were the work of a small fascist group, but Gordon Walker charged Griffiths with playing heavily on white prejudice against colored neighbors. TRIES IN LEYTON Gordon Walker lost Smeth- wick. Thursday, he tried again for a seat in Parliament, this time in the Leyton district of London with a small colored population and hardly any rec- ord of race tension. But in Leyton the old racial bogey blew up in the unhappy foreign secretary's face again. The 'nigger neighbor'? pamph- lets appeared. Election meet- ings exploded into riots. White racialists screamed from the hall, calling Gordon Walker "a_ disgusting _ racial traitor." Amid the tumult Gor- don Walker continued to insist that racial issues had no part of the fight. - | But he lost what was consid- jered a '"'safe" Labor seat by only 205 votes and resigned as foreign secretary. How much were Gordon Walk- er's chances fouled by the "nigger-lover" Tabel he carried through two disastrous cam- paigns? Smethwick was a white back- lash vote, political quarters agree In Leyton, Gordon Walker and his victorious Conservative op- ponent, Ronald Buxton, said that racial rivalries played no part. It was basically a clean fight, they said. : Political experts agreed. There weren't enough colored folk in Leyton, they said, to generate a white backlash. But still, if it hadn't been for Smethwick, Gordon. Walker still +would be foreign secretary. There are potential '"Smeth- wicks" in Britain. London has 120,000 West Indian Negroes alone. The colored population is growing despite measures intro- duced by the Conservative gov- ernment in 1962 to limit immi- gration. RICH MIXTURE The blood of an octopus is mae times. richer in copper be the seawater in which it \iives many of Britain's most famous heroes, including Admiral Nel- son and the Duke of Welling- ton, St. Paul's is sometimes known as the parish church of the Commonwealth. The first hymn, He Who Would Valiant Be, strikes the dominant note: "No lion can him fright; he'll with a giant fight..." This will be followed by a prayer by the cathedral's dean, Very Rev. W. R. Matthews. It reads in part: "We shall think of him with thanksgiving that he was raised up in our days of desperate need to be a leader and inspirer of the nation, for his dauntless resolution and untiring vigil- ance and for his example of courage and endurance." Other hymns include Fight the Good Fight and Julia Ward Howe's rousing Battle Hymn of the Republic, with its echoing chorus and an appropriate line: "He hath sounded forth the treat." The lesson, to be read by a canon of St. Paul's, will be taken from 1 Corinthians and includes the famous passage: "Death is swallowed up in vic- tory. O death, where is thy sting?

By CARMAN CUMMING Canadian Press Staff Writer The death of Sir Winston Churchill gave the United Na- tions an unusual chance Wed- nesday to pause and consider where it has come from and where it is going. The General Assembly held a special meeting to honor the man acclaimed as one of the UN's founding fathers. For a time, delegates had a chance to stand back and take a hard look at what they have been doing in the past months of internal bickering and manoeuvring. There seemed to be wide agreement that--in the words of Adlai Stevenson the day before --the UN has reached "one of those watersheds in human af- fairs." There was an awareness the UN is marking its 20th anniver- sary year with one big member --Indonesia--walking out, and with other countries threatening to do the same. And from some of the dele- gates who paid tributes to Churchill, there were warnings what had been achieved at im- mense cost 20 years earlier. RECALL LEAGUE Under it all lay the fear, sometimes articulated but more often simply understood, the UN could follow the path of disin- tegration taken by the League of Nations after its nearly two decades of existence. © One delegate expressed it in Churchill's own words, spoken in 1946: UN Men Take Hard Look At Internal Bickering ADLAI STEVENSON - + » At Watershed face the facts must not be repeated." that the UN is frittering away; The words had a particular acuteness for those who see the present UN troubles as a time of decision on how, or whether, the UN will keep the peace in the future. In this view, the UN is in the process of deciding whether the whole membership has peace- keeping responsibility or whether a peace-keeping action can be blocked by any one of the five permanent members of the security council. and act while time remained. This disaster Many delegate believe the sec- ond choice would force the UN to continue as a helpless specta- tor in most world crises. Only occasionally, as in last year's Cyprus fighting, would Western and Communist inter- ests overlap sufficiently to per- mit organization of peace-keep- ing machinery. These delegates point out that the UN already is completely out of the picture on most of the current threats to interna- tional peace--in Viet Nam, The Congo and Malaysia. They fear that the UN will be- come meaningless if it has to shut its eyes to the world's ma- jor problems. Camilo Osias of the Philip- pines summed up the feeling by saying the UN, in the midst of "frustration and near paraly- sis,' should follow Churchill's example and make a "forward ns all to re-establish its pres- ige. ville, N.B., is on exchange duty to St. Charles Hospital in St. "I taught my boy since he was big enough to walk that he shouldn't snitch on the other kids," the parent, a school teacher, added. "He didn't do anything wrong. Another boy offered him an examination paper. He turned it down. This was a friend. My boy couldn't turn him in--and now he must pay for it." Reactions from other parents were marked with similar sad- ness and bitterness. with the RAF. Dr. Conrad Swan, formerly of Duncan, B.C., and Windsor, Ont., the most recently ap- pointed officer of the Royal College of Arms, is expected to have the duty of receiving Sir Winston's. coffin when it arrives at the steps of St. Paul's Saf- urday following the funeral procession from Westminster Hall. Besides Pearson and his wife, the official Canadian mourners will include former Hyacinthe, where his condition was satisfactory. He also suf- fered stab wounds to the face and chest.

He made copies of the papers and then obtained 10 fellow cadets to help sell them to other students. He told the Toronto Young Men's Advertising and Sales Club that it is generally ack- nowledged that most of the fi- nancial assistance given to po- litical parties comes from the business world. "Sometimes it is voluntarily given," he said. Sometimes it is given through various de- grees of coercion. Much of it is given, not in any spirit of phil- anthropy, but rather for favors received or expected." BURNS SHOE STORE S EMI-ANNUAL BLUE HORSE LOUNGE FULLY LICENSED L.C.B.0.
