contribute to the national crisis in nursing but all relate to pay Nursing today is means of livelihood as well as v04 cation she says Prestige does not buy the groceries nor pay the rent Getting down to cases Miss Pope poian out that in some places in Canada registered nurses working in hospitals are paid as little as $235 per month and public health nurses mlnlmum training four years one at university receive $15 to $30 per month less than younger wo men in secretarial work and those in the lowest category of school teaching work Nurses with as much as 15 years experience may receive mere$2 per week more than the ones with four years experience In alarming numbers writes Miss Pope Canadian nurses are going to the Unit ed states where they can earn up to $100 per month more than at

it will have to rely on its continued appeal to new generations rather than on an aritificisi privileg ed status The British Ssvoyards who tried to rescueiheir favorite comic operas from the ravagesof

tremendous an tireless dedica tion He quit only because of the lilac that incapacitated him In his lifetime there hovd been appraisals of him good and bad In the long cold and clinical view of history neither his devo tion to duty nor the opinions of his contemporaries will count for much DONT RUDOE His great task was dealing with communism If his whole policy in this regard wore to be sum med up in single sentence this could be it Hold tight and dont let them budgo an inch This was exactly the contdln merit policy of his prcdecsssor the Democratic administrations Dean Acheson It called for mili tary alliances all around the Communist perimeter and eco nomic help to friends and neut rals The purpose was direct ob vious and simple To keep com munism from gaining any more ground militarily economically nr upolitically it was essentially cfcnslvo policy not an ag gressivo one When Dulles hccsme secretary he took over the Acheson policy made it his own oven expanded on it with new milit alliances Dulles just like Ac own was more defensive than aggressive Ilo reacted to Communist ac tlons He created no crises for the Russians although they created some for the 05 RUSSIAN POLICYCEANGE

savage Rus siun fondgn policy llls successors took softer line although their purpose and they made no bones about it was the some Communist expansion They managed to increase their influence beyond their borders but American military alliances and power remained firm and the Russians didnt gain an ex tra foot of real estate But animosity between East and West was just as intense when Dullu wont

Missiles lis llir Weapon Not End of Manned Fighters By STEWART MucLIJOD Canadian Press Staff Writer Although missiles are gradually taking over as Britains chief air weapon the end of the monnod fighter era is nowhere in sight in fact any defence ministry spokesmen in London tho mon ncd fighter will he re uired in definitely until miss les learn to make positive identification of aircraft They also say manned aircraft are the only weapons that can hedgehop into enemy territory without being spotted by radar British defence lanncrs took long look at future of manned aircraft before deciding that the new TSli fighter bomber should be brought into production about 1965 at cost of 00000000 Thay muds ths decision about four months ago come smom it will be about 1907 before the RAF is ulpped with full com pliment oI TSItZs Since defence spokesmen say the aircraft will be in service for good many years this means that Britains manned fighter planes should be going strong until llflfi even if no additional models are de signed The ren2 will be essentially lowlevel aircraft which Defence Minister Duncan Sandys has de scribed as highly suitable for limited wnr operations it will be capable of highal titude nil wcnther performance and will carry nirtonir missiles It will also have space for an atomic bomb and will take off from 600 yard unsurfsced run gt ways Defence spokesmen describe the TSRZ as completely verr sutlle aircraft capable of doing any job NEED POINTED UP The need for manned aircraft was brought out sharply at the time of the 1956 Suez action when British pilots were ordered to de stroy military installations with out striking nearby towns Pilot less missiles say the defence planners couldnover accomplish such mission without large scale destruction Manned aircraft appear to be winning renewed favor in some other European countries because of their ability by changing height at random to sneak under the radar screens Both French and West German efen spokesmen have publicly pointed out the advantages of aircraft over missiles Develop Pumice For Construction VANCOUVER road builder plans to spend $500000 to develop find of pumice
