There seemed little inclination to implement demands for a national labor code and as an alternative the Dominion proposed amending the Industrial Disputes Act, which was suspended when the wartime code came into effect, and allowing it to stand as a model which the provinces might adopt if they see fit. The provinces gave fairly gen- eral approval to the basic plan but made no specific commitments, Television May Invade Canada By JOHN SMALLER Canadian Press Staff Writer Television for Canadians, beyond mere generalization, still is the ex- clusive property of the radio en- and student of science.

In Canada there is no television broadcasting and for that reason there are no television receivers. None will be bought until such time as some- one establishes a broadcasting sta- tion, and few will venture into the broadcasting field where there is no audience, A bright note: A television broad- casting station in Detroit is direct- ng to Windsor. Some television receivers undoubtedly will be in operation there. Perhaps, if there are enough of them, someone will launch a Canadian broddcast- ing station , , . then more receivers will be in operation, and so on.

Nuremberg Widow Is Bitter Frau Brigitte Frank, widow of Hans Frank, former Nasi governor of Poland who was hanged as a war criminal at Nuremberg, is shown with two of her five children, Brigitte, 11, and Norman, 17, in their Munich home, Since the execution of her husband Mrs. Frank has grown bitter, but not against the Allies who hanged him, but against the Germans who punish the children for the sins of their father. The children are ostracized by former comrades. Most recent blow to fall on the Frank family was when a gang of armed thugs broke into the home of Mrs. Frank's married daughter and cleaned it out of furs, jewels and clothing to the value of $20,000.
