v A134VS "Defence Staff Defence Minister Discloses To Protect Nation Ottawa, July 6 (CP)--Canada's defence planners, a weather eye cocked on the Korean war, have stepped up initial moves for the internal Defence Minister Claxton at a press conference yester- day disclosed various defensive steps, some of which he said had no connection with the Korean fighting. But he left the impression that Canada should a war emergency arise. The Defence Minister said: 1. Canada has a defence plan "which could be put into effect rapidly" if any of her critics were attacked. He did not elaborate on this statement, given in reply to a question as to whether attacks on cities like Victoria or Vancouver could be handled tomorrow. No Conscription 2. Peacetime conscription forms no part of government policy -- "We're not in favor of it" Canada's primary need, along with that of her allies, was more equipment rather than mere men. ! 8. Anti-aircraft defences will be bolstered around the Sault Ste. Marie locks area. later that 3.7-inch anti-aircraft guns will be moved shortly to that vital shipping channel between Lakes Superior and Huron. 4. Canadian reserve army units other than those at the Sault also will get more equipment soon "un- der a program arrived at independ- ently of Korea." Speaking gener- ally of the reserve army, Mr. Clax- ton said it is being built up and will take all the men it can get. Civil Defence 8. Training of civil defence ex-|- perts will begin "in the immediate future" at certain armed forces . schools and will include the hand- ling of atomic and other kinds of attack. : 6. Though theré is no immediate plan to stimulate local civil defence training on a municipal block-by- block system, a conference here in the fall will consider the basis for co-operation with the provinces and will enable them to take further co-operative action with individual municipalities. Could Enlarge Aid Dealing briefly with the dis- patch of the Canadian destroy- ers Cayuga, Athabaskan and Sioux from Esquimalt, B.C., yes- terday to Hawaii and possibly on to the Korean war zone, Mr. Claxton said Canada's offer of naval aid to the United Nations could be enlarged without re- calling parliament. . However, there was no plan at present to boost Canada's contri- bution and he felt that if circum- stances' were such that army or air force aid from Canada was consid- ered, then parliament would have to be recalled. Security Measures Certain security measures also have been taken by the United States on the Michigan side of the locks where no unauthorized civil- fans now are permitted. The minister made it clear that the government would not put any || obstacles in the way of Canadians volunteering for action against Communist invaders in South Korea. But there likely would be |! little call for such volunteers be- cause the kind of aid needed in Korea was formations of men and material. Mr. Claxton said it was not real- istic to anticipate a gas attack on Canada. think that this country or this con- tiftent could build up a radar de- fence network on a scale anything like Britain had in wartime, Neither was it realistic to talk of air raid shelters for all Canada. Canada's 2,000 miles of northland territory had a "great" significance in defence. Exercise Sweetbriar had proved the difficulty of trying to move any sizeable force across the Arctic wastes. Strategic sections of Canada were being covered as fast as possible with radar and other early-warn- -ing protection. Supports Lie --Central Press Canadian. U.N. Secretary-General Trygve Lie, is shown holding some of the thou- sands of letters and wires he re- ceived from all over the world, al- most uhanimously endorsing his ef- forts to bring the big powers to terms on the cold war. In an open letter, the top U.N, boss reached past all governments and appealed directly to the public of the world to rally behind him for strepngthen- ing the U.N. as a peace instrument, emphasizing that efforts to end the eold war by U.N. negotiation do not fmply "surrender by any party." He struck thereby at recent charges in the U.S. press that his trip to talk peace with Stalin meant appease- ment -of Russia. «4D It was learned Nor was it realistic to ¥ Moves security of the Dominion. would not be caught napping & A 4 Right Answer --Central Press Canadian.

This was the report Wednesday of the Dominion Bureau of Statis- tics in its periodic summary of 'crop prospects across the Dominion. In the Maritimes, Nova Scotia, Quebec, Ontario and British Columbia; it said, prospects are good. 5 In Ontario the- crop 'prospects have improved but r: is still bad- ly needed in some areas, particular- ly Renfrew County, Hay and clover crops yields-will be better than ex- pected and fall wheat is already headed out and harvesting will be- gin shortly.

Warning Issued of Communist Appeal Toronto, July 6--(CP) -- Church leaders were told Wednesday that Communism lurks behind the world-wide "peace" campaign to have atomic weapons outlawed. The Executive Committee of the Church Commission on Interna- tiona] Affairs urged Protestant and || Orthodox churches 'throughout the world not to associate themselves with the so-called "Stockholm Ap- | peal." When churches speak on the atomic "crisis," the executive said in an open letter prepared at its three-day meeting here, "they should guard against the possibility that their utterances may 'be used for propaganda purposes quite dif- ferent from those which they in- tend."

Would Give Atomic Energy To Industry New York, July 6 -- (AP) -- Im- mediate transfer of atomic energy to private industry was proposed Wednesday by David E. Lilienthal, former chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission. His proposal was made in an ar- ticle in Collier's. He said he has changed his mind. "I was among those," he said, "who, back in 1945 and 1946, were unable to see any alternative to the course of government monopoly ...I am convinced that our mon- opoly course is no longer justified and should be drastically changed." The biggest gold brick in history, he said, is the notion that the United States has a secret formula He said that almost to a man scores of ingustrial leaders believe atomic energy cannot be fully de- veloped under present government- dominated conditions.

They had given chase to a bandit who robbed the Imperial Bank of Canada branch here of $23,000.

London, July 6 -- (AP) -- Bri- tain's policy of aid to South Korea through the United Nations has won smashing support in parlia- ment. The House of Commons roared its approval last night of Britain's quick action in sending ships to help American forces and Australian planes in the conflict area. There were only a few dissenters. Their remarks drew ironic laughter and cries of "shame." « Winston Churchill and other Conservative leaders ensured the Labor Government victory on its policy motion by their unqualified support of the Government action speed with which the United States acted to meet what he said was "naked aggression" against Souti Korea. Churchill reiterated in the Com- mons what he told the American Society in a fourth-of-July speech: if the Communists get away with their invasion of South Korea, "a third world war would be forced upon us." Churchill recalled that before the Second World War, Parliament had held a secret session and heard about Hitler's potential strength. Churchill suggested having a simi- lar secret meeting now to discuss Russia's situation. Deputy Prime Minister Herbert Morrison, how- ever, argued that a secret session would be a serious departure from peacetime practice. It appeared Prime Minister Attlee praised the, Stepping Up Plans For Canada's Security |THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE Commons Gives Strong Approval To British Policy In Korean War that Churchill would not get his request. Churchill's deputy, Anthony Eden, held out to the Commons a pictute of hope that Russia's Prime Min ister Stalin may be drawing in his horns. Eden recalled that in 1941 Stalin told him that Hitler "is a very able man, but made one mistake -- he did not know when to stop." He said Stalin told him that "If we are victorious, I shall know when to stop." Eden went on: "Tonight I am wondering whether the 'time has not come when he might recail those words and he might consider the time has come when it would be wise to stop." Two women showered members from the gallery with Communist pamphlets calling for "Hands off Korea," A Scots labor member asked the house in vain to outlaw the British Communist Party on grounds it is a branch of the Ruse sian army.
