Girl Killed Driver Held Peterborough, Jan. 24--Marguer- ite Beatty, 19, of Rink Street, was instantly killed Tuesday when she was struck by an automobile as she was going to work at a Peterbor- ough industrial plant. Prank Spring, 66, of Prince Street, driver of the car, was later charged in police court with careless driving and dangerous driving, He was re- manded to Jan. 30 on bail of $2,000. Police said the girl was standing at the intersection of Rink and Aylmer Sts., waiting for traffic to pass before she crossed over from the east side of Aylmer St. to the west side. A southbound car, driven by Spring, attempted to pass the car ahead and when that car start- ed to make a left-hand hurn, Spring steered his car further to the left. His car struck the standing girl and threw her a distance of 22 feet. The vehicle came to a stop after striking a tree and turning around in the roadway. Eisenhower (Continued from page 1) has not been enough to satisfy the man who must make western de- fence work. The hard fact is that most of Western Europe doesn't want to spend money and most of it is scared. . . It knows war may start before the United States, Britain and France--the countries which really can do something -- are strong enough to act. Officials of the little coun- tries say any rearmament they may get going mow would only invite retaliation from Russia if the Reds decided to sweep over Europe soon. Eisenhower has answered that each country must do its utmost. If one hangs back, another will use that as an excuse to hang back. And here is the kicker: If they all hang back, the United States Congress will not vote the money to send arms and troops to Europe." That argument has a sting ip. &; A sample of the real fsar Buro- peans have is giver in a Story told to one of Eisenhower's party by a Dutch official. : "People here, including intellig | gent people I know, don't want to put their savings in the bank," he said. "They know that in case of war their savings won't be worth much, especially during the com- ing two years when they know Holland would be overrun in the first few days. So they buy clothes and automobiles." And what has Eisenhower's visit | done to counteract this fear? There is no hard answer. A fair estimate is that it has helped much. Long before Eisenh was appointed, this correspondent talked to a num- ber of European leaders about the war scare and their answer was mainly this: "When the United States names a commander to direct rearmament and send troops to Europe, then we will begin to have confidence." That commander now has come. He is known to everybody. His buoyancy, his established success as a general and his big smile have had a noticeable effect. But what is giving the most con- fidence in the West's chances are toiling, whirring gears in United States factories and in the mysteri- ous chemical workings in Anierican atom plants. : WOMAN DIES AT 106 Morden, N.S, Jan. 26--(CP)--Mrs. Eliza Whynott, Nova Scotia's oldest citizen, died here last night at 106.

Exposure and panic lead to most deaths in the mountains which, at this time of the year, are covered with 15-foot snowdrifts and engulf- ed by winter mists. Because of this, speed is the res- cue keynote. Bench Blames Accident On sentence were that he pay the costs of the court, the sum of $76.37 which he owed Mrs. Nado- | bney, and report to the probation | officer, Major.

SUBDIVISIONS APPROVED Three subdivisions were approved |of last might when the Planning | Board held its inaugural meeting in the board room of the P.U.C. building. One being sold by W. P.

It urges: 1. An excise tax be imposed on cheaply-produced foreign oils used in manufacture of | margarine, sufficient to enable | butter to compete on fair terms. 2. Continuation of the federal | price-support program for butter, but at a minimum price of 62 cents a pound and provision for a raised price in the event of shortages. 3. Disposal of any cheese sur- pluses in the British market and, if necessary, a support price at a level in line with the price of other manufactured dairy products. 4. Wider powers for provincial milk control boards for setting prices, thus maintaining adequate returns to producers and guaran teeing supplies of fluid reids. at fair prices to consumers, The D Farmers of Canada join QF.A* President H H.

Cabinet (Continued from page 1) | ter, there is no immediate indication of Canada's next step. Presumably it would be talked over today in the light of new information from Ex- ternal Affairs Minister Pearson, who flew back from Lake Success yes- terday to attend today's meeting. Mr. Pearson headed the U.N.'s cease- fire committee. Apart from this difficult ques- tion, the cabinet faced issues sufficiently difficult to make its agenda extremely onerous be- | tween now and Tuesday. Defence matters and a defence budget estimated unofficially at around $1,600,000,000 will be a major problend. Manpower policies, hemmed by #7 need for increased labor in the pro- duction field and higher recruit- ing rates for the three armed forces, will be another. In addition, the Government faces numerous demands for action on two major and contentious questions-- | compulsory military service and im- | position of price and wage controls. Annexation . (Continued from page 1) which was originally issued on No- vember 9, 1950, with the exception of the addition of the note regard- ing the objection made to that or- der and its subsequent withdrawal. The November 9 order was subject to a period of thirty days being allowed for the filing of objections. Prior to the expiration of that per- iod, a group of East Whitby rate- payers made an objection on the ground that the order did not give them protection against the assess- ment of excessive charges for local improvements. A petition signed by 275 property owners of the town- ship backed up the objection. The matters complained of by the objectors, however, were ironed out at meetings held with the City Council, and the objection was with drawn. The final order of the Municipal Board now settles beyond question the effective date and terms of an- nexation, as it is considered purely a matter of formality for a validat- ing act to be passed by the Ontario Legislature. The proper notice has been filed regarding this private bill, which will in due course be introduced in the legislature and discussed by the private bills com- mittee before being passed. tion with an imposing list of 35 res- | I | Street, will be so located to allow Bad Driving Joseph Galka, 63, of RR. 3, Osh- awa, was found guilty of careless driving and fined $50 and costs or one month in jail by Magistrate F. 8. Ebbs in police court this morn- ing. His license was suspended for six months, "I am satisfied that you. lost con- trol of your car through your own bad driving," the magistrate stat- ed. "You had been drinking and you tried to bribe the officer which is in itself evidence of guilt." The case was heard before an- other case which had precedence over it because both John Greer, counsel for the accused, and Acting Crown Attorney R. D. Humphreys agreed that it would be a short case. When the case had proceed- ed for nearly an hour, Magistrate Ebbs commented dryly, "This is the longest short case I ever tried." Galka was proceeding east on Thomas Street in a one-ton pickup truck on December 16 at about 7 pa. As he rounded a curve in the street he lost control of his car, narrowly missed striking a telephone pole and crashed into a fire hydrant. The impact swung the rear of the truck around, caus- ing it to break off a fence post. The truck then travelled across the road into the south ditch and up the road for about 150 feet before t was brought to a stop by the accused. Two passengers in the front seat of the truck suffered injuries. John | Ksenych, 140 Jackson Street, was | knocked unconscious and had to be taken to hospital by ambulance. The accident occurred in front of the home of Roy McNevin, 120 Thomas Street. He testified that he was standing at an open door and watched the truck come up the hill, He estimated the: of the vehicle at "35 or better." Galka and the passengers in his vehicle all stated that the truck was not going at more than 26 m.p.h. Acting Crown Attorney Humph- reys ran into considerable difficulty when he attempted to cross-exam- ine the accused, who admitted that he "spoke English poar." i Constable Ernest Barker, investi- | gating officer, stated that when he | took the accused to the police sta- | tion, Galka whispered to him just as they entered the door, "Do okay by me and I give you $100."

In Austria, Switzerland and Italy more than 250 persons have been killed by masses of snow and boulders sliding down mountain sides. Rescue efforts went forward as reports come in from hun- dreds of tiny communities isola- ted by the worst avalanches of the century.

Cancer Clinic For Dogs Is Opened By U.S. University New Brunswick, N.J.,, Jan, 20 -- (AP) -- Opening of a cancer clinic for dogs only was announced today by Rutgers University. The clinic is unique both in can- ine medicine and in cancer research. Its sole aim is to treat and study cancer in dogs, which get the dis- ease about as often as humans do. The dog studies may turn up knowledge helpful against human cancer, This new deal for dogs is al- ready under way at the bureau of biological research at Rut- gers. New Jersey veterinarians have been asked to send their patients. i Treatment will be free. The United States public health service granted $15,000 for the first yéar of the new project. Dogs will be diagnosed, treated and studied much as human pa- tients are, Dr. James B. Allison, bureau director, said. The goal is to cure or control the dog's cancer, through drugs, surgery, or radia- tion. The drugs will include some new ones, including one nicknamed T.EM., which is ab} to shrink some kinds of cancers in humans 'and animals. Dogs will be given only drugs which, after tests on rats, are considered safe and ready for trial on humans too. 'The clinic has sent one dog home with its cancer under control. It has treated 10 other dogs, but in all of them the cancer had been de- tected too late to save the dog. That is the same tragedy as occurs so often in humans,' All 1M dogs had external cancers, such as breast cancer and cancer of the lymph glands, Interna] can- cers are as hard or harder to de- | tect in dogs than in' humans. ' AutoOwnerls Held Equally Responsible | Magistrate F. S. Ebbs this morn- | ing found Charles Terry, 373 Sime coe Street North, equally respon- sible with Miss Greta Logeman, 65 Albert Street, in the accident which caused serious injury to Esme Williams at the intersection of Church and William Streets on May 23, 1950. He imposed a fine of $100 and costs or three months in jail and suspended the license of the accused tor two years. The accused was charged with dangerous driving as was Miss Logeman. Miss Logeman was also fined $100 and costs last Wednes- day. A second charge against 'Lerry of permitting an unlicensed driver to drive an auto, was with drawn at the request of the Crown. Magistrate Ebbs stated that he was satisfied that the accused was aware that Miss Logeman did not have a license and was not a com- petent driver. This aws borne out by the fact that the accused had | counseled Miss Logeman not to go {along Richmond Street, past the | police station. | Miss Logeman, fiancee of the { accused, was the driver of a car, {owned by the accused, which, in { making a right turn from Church Street onto Willlam Street, mount- ed the northeast curb and after travelling along the sidewalk for a considerable distance struck and ° knocked down Esme Williams, Fear Chinese Thrust At Indo-China Hong Kong, Jan. 24 (AP)--Sever- | al straws in the wind in the last few weeks seem to point toward some early action by Chinese Communists in Indo-China, These, coupled with Com- munist Ho Chi Minh's campaign against Hanoi in northern Indo- China, have stirred up new worries that the Chinese are ready to try a new adventure before their Korean gamble is ended. Possibly they already have started it. Jan. 15 Pravda in Moscow charg= ed that the United States and France were arming Chinese Na tionalists in Indo-China for an in- vasion of south China. The Pravda report sounds to Far Eastern ears like the propaganda build-up for Communist China's in= tervention in Indo-China -- a move which has been feared since the Reds came to power in China. But Pravda is not the only mouthpiece whose doubletalk adds up to an invasion threat. The Vietminh's own propaganda transmitter somewhere in the Tone kin jungle put out a broadcast re- cently which sounded as if Ho Chin Minh was trying to condition his people for "liberation" with the help of Chinese Reds.
