Many of the greatest men of history were men of meagre means, who were yet able to make a great con- tribution to the world.

W. Berne in the New South Wales Appeals Court today asked the Federal Government whether Australia was at war with Korea and Malaya. He was hearing an appeal. by William Fardon Burns, publisher of the Syduey Com. munist newspaper ribune, against a sedition sentence of . nine-months imprisonment for publishing an article saying "not a man, not a ship, not a plane, not a gun for the war on the colonial liberation movements of Asia or for the imperialist . war in Korea and Malaya." The judge said the article could not be seditious if Australia was not officially at war. He added that more than one Commonwealth minister had Stat- ed that Australia was not a war in Korea. The war might be illegal, and it might be illegal 'to send troops there. Kidnap Case Divides City, Doctor Held Santa Fe, NM. Nov. 13--(AP)-- Santa Fe was divided today in shocked reaction to the ransom kidnapping of little Linda Stamm. Doctors and friends rallied to the aid of Dr. Nancy Camp- bell, 43, prominent w oman physician, charged with the kidnapping for $20,000 ransom. However, other parents joined nine-year-old Linda's mother, Mrs. Allen Stamm, in hoping the accus- ed woman never is free again if convicted. Conviction carries a penalty ranging from five years' imprisonment to death by electro- cution. 5 The formal charge of kidnapping for ransom was filed last night and bail set at $25,000. Linda was lured from her home Friday. She spent that night drugged and wrapped in blankets on the dirt floor of a shack at an abandoned ranch. There was no glass in the windows, no door in the doorway, and temperature was nine above zero. The blonde schoolgirl was released Saturday night after agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation closed a trap on Dr. Campbell as she reach- ed for the ransom money at the gate of the Stamm estate on the wooded outskirts of Santa Fe. Mrs. Stamm, 32-year-old mother of Linda, told reporters she hoped Yale-educated Dr. Campbell never would be free again "to bring to others what she has brought-to us in -heartaches and worry." "It must not be allowed to happen again--this mistreatment of an innocent child--the leaying of a little girl to the mercy of winter," Mrs. Stamm said. A. L. Zinn, lawyer for Dr. Camp- bell, said friends and doctors in Santa Fe had offered hundreds. of thousands of dollars for bond. He said Dr. Campbell would be taken to Albuquerque "where she can have all the medical care neces- Blast (Continued from Page 1) pital. Seven have since been releas- ed.

Informed observers here say this indicates that the UN. military command also is treading gingerly, hoping to win a decisive victory over the North Koreans while giv- ing the Chinese an opportunity to withdraw with a minimum loss of face. The U.N.s strategy was applied in these three directions: 1. Australia's James Plinsoll, a member of the geven-country Kor- ean commission, flew to Korea to be available, with other commis- sion members, in case Peiping wants to negotiate a border settlement, There is no indication that the Chinese Reds have made any approaches in this direc- tion, but Plimsoll's flight is re- garded here as further evidence of U.N. determination to leave ne door losed in an attemp to solve the question peacefully. 2. The General Assembly's eco- {nomic and social committees, in joint session, pushed a plan for the post-war rehabilitation and relief of Korea. Besides the physical reconstruc- tion of the war-devastated coun- try, this plan envisages a peaceful democratic land and stresses that UN. forces will be withdrawn as soon as its aims are competed. 3. Security Council members con- tinued private discussions on im- plementing the man strategic line and on what attitude to take whe the Chinese Reds arrive. : Icy Roads (Continued from Page 1) understood the truck jack-knifed into the rear of the bus.

The car clipped another car on the side then crashed into the rear of the transport. Provincial Constables W. Smith and G. Gilbert investigated. They described road conditions as "like a skating rink." Damage to the McKnight car was estimated at nearly $500. Bowmanville Provincial Police re- ported three minor collisions.

BLAKESLEE New Pig 13 (AP) -- A search for 1,000, missing Ameri- cans begins today. These are the people who have diabetes and don't know it. They AX, wissing out on the modern help can bring them extra years of life and health. The search starts with an of- fev of free tests this week, any- where in the United States, to check for diabetes, in the list of killer diseases. The cam- paign is staged by the American Diabetes. Association. ~ The tests are simple checks of urine or blood for excess sugar, the hallmark of diabetes. Diabetes comes from a lack of insulin, a hormone from the pancreas gland. dus to this lack, the body is not able to turn sugars and starches into energy as it should, and health suffers. In some American communities this week, doctors are offering free tests in their own offices. Other towns and cities have set up special testing centres. Mobile units are visiting factories, club and schools in other communities. In a few others, people are being urged to do their own testing with special kits sold in drug stores. Finding of excess sugar in the urine or blood means possible dia- betes. Further tests are necessary to show whether the sign is really due to diabetes or some other con- dition, Korea (Continued from Page 1) Reds smashed a two-mile dent in lines of the South Korean 6th Divis- ion.

LA market at fts current high level is bound to raise doubts, and in this condition one additional piece of bad news can crystallize them into one great big doubt. At last week-end the market was about holding its own. Observers felt that even doing this was a sign of strength, for they considered the technical position poor. On Monday, fears aroused by the Chinese intervention in Korea work- ed on this background and caused the biggest drop in months, Market Holiday Tuesday was a market holiday in the United States because of elec- tions there. Canadian markets halted their downward movement but hesitated while Wall Street was inoperative. On Wednesday New York cheered by Republican gains, bounded ahead at -the opening. The enthusiasm was tempered, however, and the advance halted, though maintain- ing a good share of gains. Canadian markets duplicated the recovery. Thursday saw most of Monday's losses wiped out, and the advance continued Friday, marked by a late pick-up in New York which was regarded as somewhat surprising in view of today's holiday. Aside from what may seem to dictate the day-to-day happenings, the sum total of the week's per- formance seems to have been strength. The market is in such a place that a big setback would ordinarily be well within the realms of possi- bility. But, though it may give way to bursts of nervousness, it can't overlook the fact that earnings are high and that we are in for a period of great activity. . World Sits On Bomb : The market, like everything else, and all of use, shares in the un- certainty of the world in current times, But. back of the market, as back of everything else and every one, is that it is a world which is achieving a relative prosperity while it sits on a bomb.

[Business And Markets y | | By FORBES RHUDE Canadian Press Business Editor The current monthly. review of the Bank>of Nova Scotia is a study of Quebec-Labrador iron ore. It brings together known facts about this recent Canadian devel- opment, examines future markets, and s upon its effect on the Canadi economy. Factually: Present proven reserves are more than 400,000,000 tons, "quite suffi- cient to justify the construction of the railway." The railway, on which work has started, will run 360 miles from the centre of the discoveries, Burnt Creek, to Seven Islands, Que. on | the Gulf of St. Lawrence. This | tidewater outlet can, with the aid of an icebreaker, be made a year-round port. The railway is expected to be finished in 1954 and ore shipments to begin in 1955. | Anticipated rate of shipment is 10,000,000 tons a year, but 'should the St. Lawrence Seaway be built, annual output might in time run to 20,000,000 tons or even more." Proven reserves are high-grade hematite, a non-magnetic, easily smelted oxide similar to that of the Mesabi Range in the United States, whose high-grade ore is nearing ex- haustion, thus creating markets for new riscoveries. Big Expenditure Mapped Expenditures on exploration to the end of 1948 were $7,000,000 and projected expenditures are estimat- ed at $150,000,000. The review comments: "There is every reason to believe the bulk of Quebec-Labrador ore will be marketed outside Canada. Though a growing Canadian steel industry may well provide a gradu- ally-increasing market in this coun- try, there is no likelihood in 'the foreseeable future of its reaching a size at all commensurate with the scale of the Quebec-Labrador. de- velopment. "Broadly speaking, there are three main areas to which the ore might look for a market: the Great Lakes- Pittsburgh area; the United States Atlantic coast; and Europe." How- ever: "The main outlet for many years to come is likely to be the great interior steel region, which uses some three-quarters of the total United States consumption of 100,- | 000,000 tons of ore annually. | "Just what will be the competi- | tive position of Quebec-Labrador | ore in this region is difficult for | the lay observer to assess . .. any | estimate of the competitive position | must include a view of the com- | parative costs of Lake Superior and | Venezuelan ore and added to this | are such intangible factors as com- | pany interests in the various sources | of supply. Five US.

It says also: "Of greatest significance may be the penetration of railway for the first time of the vast and almost- unexplored plateau of New Quebec and Labrador. The opening of this huge area--a part of the Precam- brian Shield which in more access- ible locations has provided the bulk of the base-metal and gold produc- tion of Canada--would surely be a landmark in Canada's economic his- tory." The review also refers to other Canadian iron developments: grade ore a year, and another ore body is being developed from which shipments of 2,000,000 tons a year are expected by 1955. Still another ore body has been leased by Steep Rock to the inland steel company for development. "In addition, production from the Algoma Steel Corporation's mines (in the Sault Ste. Marie, Ont., a¥ea) has been at record levels, facilities' for concentrating the comparatively low-grade ore have been enlarged, and an important new ore body of higher grade has been discovered. "And very recently the Bethlehem Steel Corporation has been making an intensive search for iron in Southern Ontario, near Marmora." year-old Indian of the Eel Ground: reserve, and Wilfred Ramsay, Jr. | 16, of Chatham Head, near New- !
