By DOON CAMPBELL Calcutta, May 15---(Reuters)-- Responsible Indian financial circles view with growing irritation the "wordy offensive" in British news- papers regarding liquidation of Ine dia's sterling balances, amounted to approximately $4,800,000,000. They point out that the Indian press, peueving unat Britain 'was going to adopt a "reasonable atti- tude," has exercised restraint on the subject since the conclusion of the exploratory talks in New Delhi in February. Profiteering But frequently threats of coun- ter-claims and blocking of India's sterling balances, coupled with charges of profiteering, may lead to a potentially dangerous verbal ex- change jeopardizing the prospects of an amicable settlement between the two countries in the final talks in London this month, according to the same quarters. Apart from the fact that British press comment is considered provo- vative, financial circles maintain that facts are often misrepresented and distorted.

This is a hard road but for India's defence," sald an ex- pert. "India faithfully fulfilled the terms of the financial agreement entered into with His Majesty's government in 1940 and has borne out of her own resources the entire expenditure for the defence of In- dia, The sterling balances do not represent the cost of India's defence but of imperial defence for which the British government made pur- chases in India and for which In- dian troops were used in every theatre of operations." IRRITATION Irritation is felt most at the charges of profiteering levelled against India in the sale of stores and supplies provided by the gov- ernment of India to Britain "not only because this harms India in the eyes of the world but because anyone who has studied the facts must know that the allegations are totally false and unfounded." One of the contentions commonly appearing in British financial pub- lications is that as exchange was not free and there was a tremend- ous price rise in India, the rupee- sterling exchange rate was main- tained at an artificial level and sterling balances were resultantly inflated. Inflate Value "While such a thesis might be tenable in competitive economy with free markets," said this expert, "the effect of freeing the exchanges during the war and not permitting 'branch, taking the place Sandham who recent- , | ing, drink nothing, smoke noth= Hi ist ly sterilized before breathing, So let us make the best of it. we all like to travel it.

Canadian Army Radio Serves The Far North Ottawa, May 15. -- Residents of Aklavik, NW.T, and the Delta ar- ea of the Mackenzie River last week heard the first official broadcast of Canadian Army Station CHAK, North America's most northerly ra- dio station, Army Headquarters has announced. On the same voluntary service lines as Army Broadcasting Sta- tion CFWH, now operating inh Whitehorse, Yukon signalmen of VAC AYULWAWESY ACiTiWwry sua xu= kon's signal system's radio station at Aklavik have gone on the air to give service and entertainment to scattered communities and homes in the Delta region, Warrant of- foo in charge of the Royal Cana- jor R.

About six months ago Sergeant- Major MacLeod started construc- tion of a broadcast transmitter us- ing parts from his dismantled ci- villian "ham" set. Helped by the other four signalmen on staff of the Northern military station, he also built a low power short wave trans- mitter for remote control broad- casts. Scheduled to broadcast ev- ery Tuesday, Thursday, Saturdhy and Sunday, the voluntarily oper- ated station is the only broadcast transmitter to be heard regularly in that area. Originally conceived as a means of transmitting emer- gency messages to the eighteen hundred natives and trappers in the area, CHAK will carry record- ed and actuality broadcasts. The opening day's broadcast was high- lighted by news broadcasts, re- quest program, and messages from townsfolk to their kin who could not be reached formerly without many days travel by dog team. From letters and messages al- ready received it is known that ra- dio station CHAK will do much to relieve the monotony and isolation of northland life. During testing periods the station broadcast ama- teur and quiz programs, dance mu- sic from the 'Canadian Legion and church services as well as emerg- ency messages, In one case an Eskimo tom-tom dance put on for the occasion was transmitted over its 1230 kilocycles. A few months ago, the station \which was being tested just after completion proved its worth. An emergency broadcast brought Nels Hvatum in from his trapline when fire destroyed "his Aklavik home "Oshawa's Family Clot hier" Has Retired Ottawa, May 16.--(CP)-- Retire- ment of Gordon B.

Nothing is to be gained from get- ting them in before both soil and weather have started to turn real- ly warm, Among the flowers, such things as those with soft, tender stems like danlas, pevunias ana glaaiowus come in this category, Bulbs and corms, of course, because they are planted deeply in the soil, can go in a few days before the last cool weather is expected, though it is questionable whether much is to be gained by rushing even this much. Among the vegetables in the ten- der class are all the vines like mel- ons, squash, pumpkins and cucum- bers, and also corn and tomatoes. All these need really warm wea- ther and frost-free soil. ine Plants For best results, cucumbers, squash and melons should be plant- ed in specially prepared hills, Hills are simply loose soil built up in mounds two or three feet across and about 6 inches high. In- to these should be worked some well-rotted manure or black mulch. 'This keeps the soil open so that the soft, fibrous roots can penetrate easily and 'the darkish color of the muck or well-rotted manure ab- sorbs the heat of the sun which these plants loye. Plant about five seeds to a hill. Later thin to about three plants to each group. Keep weeds cleared away, watch out for bugs, and to encourage early fruiting nip off end of vines when half a dozen melons | or a dozen or so squash Or cucums=- bers are on the way. Seed Is Important No matter how favorable the weather or how' rich the soil results are going to be disappointing unless one uses good seed. This costs on- ly a few cents a packet but it is vital to success. Not only is it im- portant to use good seed, but al- so seed that is suitable for Cana- dian conditions, Something that might give wonderful results in the Southern States may be no good when planted in Canada. On this account it is advisable to stick to purchases from Canadian houses which only carry seed suit- able for growing in this climate. Proper Tools Recommended are the three and five - pronged cultivators, dutch hoes, narrow hoes, weed spudders, edging tools, digging forks and oth- ers, These are designed to handle special jobs ahd get into corners and close to growing plants. These tools should be kept clean and sharp. An old file will do both jobs. They will keep clean and free from rust if shoved two or three times before putting away in- to a pail or bushel basket filled with sand into which some old crank case oil has joan dumped. 8 Boxes of bedding plants and nursery stock should be kept moist and newly set out plants watered frequently for the first week.
