i k - Y, MARCH 13, 1951 "Czech Ambassador Flees To Britain For Refuge By FRED J. ZUSY «= Sues, Egypt, March 13 -- (AP) -- Dr. Bohelslav G. Kratochvil, re- Czechoslovak ambassador to Indie, yesterday reached the half- way mark in his flight to freedom and said "one cannot compromise with the evil of communism." In an interview, he said he had informed the Czech Embassy staff in New Delhi by letter that "instead of dancing with the crooks I pre- fer to fight." Kratochvil, left his post in New Delhi 1 after being re- by the Communist regime in e for "consultations," arrived 'the Suez Cangl en route to poli- 3 asylum in Britain. He came Bombay by ship with his wife two-year-old son. t is my firm .convicton that se who attempt to compromise Communism will enslave their 's dren," he said. Krafoch' had been appointed ambassador by former Foreign Min- ister Vlado Clementis, who is await ing trial in Prague on charges of plotting against the Communist regime, Yesterday's interview was Krato- chvil's first public statement since he disappeared from New Delhi. It took place in his cabin on the Scindia steamship company's Jal- (Free Waters) which will carry the Kratochvils to Liverpool. "I did not leave for a personal _ yeason," he said, "It was a case of " eonflict of principles -- of trying to protest what's going on in Czecho- slovakia." Speaking of the future of the Communist satellites, he said he be- " lieves that revolution is impossible in those countries because of re- pressive measures, but "disintegra- tion is possible as more and more disagree with the policy of the gov- ernment." ~School Closed "At Manchester Because of Mumps MRS.

Estimates (Continued from Page 1) Department itself 'called for $1,- 600,000,000 for the next year, com=- pared with $762,617,000 in the cur- rent year, Another $64,000,000 will go for the new Defence Production Depart- ment, and there are miscellaneous items such as research and atomic energy to bring the whole defence total to more than $1,700,000,000. Along with those swollen figures for the immediate year ahead, the estimates disclosed the government's intention to ask Parliament to sign contracts for additional defence re- quirements amounting to $2,200,000,- 000. These bills would be payable in later years. Air Force Gets Most In line with earlier forecasts, the estimates showed the air force get- ting the lion's share of money as between the forces. The government will ask for the RC.AF. $020000000 -- of which $406,000,000 will go largely for fight- er planes -- while the army is to get $667,600,000 and the Navy $277,~ 754,000. Elsewhere -- despite higher wages and materials costs--there were cuts in the government's proposed spend- Non-defence construction and other capital spending were hacked by about $35,000,000. The estimates indicate the civil service payroll will be thinned out. Biggest reduction was shown in the agriculture department --§28,- 600,000. Public Works, Resources and Veterans' Affairs also were heavily was in the health department. Wheat Agreement The controversial debate on the Anglo-Canadian wheat agreement shared the parliamentary spotlight last night with the estimates. Speak- ing in the wheat debate, Trade Min- ister Howe sald Britain had dis- charged her legal obligations under agreement, and is not in de- fault. The Canadian government had never suggested to the British gov- ernment "at any time that they were in legal default." It had been a mistake, he felt, to include in the agreement such a "loosely-worded" clause as the "have regard to" clause. Under this clause, Britain was to take into ac- count, in settling with Canada the price to be paid for wheat in the last two years of the agreement, the low price at which she got wheat in the first two years. Cause of Misunderstanding While the clause was the source of much misunderstanding. Mr, Howe said he felt that the British government was "partly. to blame" through a speech at Winnipeg by the then Food Minister John Stra- chey, which many Canadian wheat producers tcok to mean that the United Kingdom government was guaranteeing a final settlement. Last May, the United Kingdom said it believed it had discharged its obligations under~--tifé agreement. The Canadian government then ac- cepted that as Britain's position, but made efforts later to have the UK, government change its mind. When Britain declined, the Cana- dian Government decided to . pay. THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE Speaking of Flying Saucers . . . . . The trick of balancing seven cups and seven saucers on one's head is tough enough under any circumstances for any "average" person, but not to Rudi Horn who believes in doing things the hard way. Rudi, who is 18, is winning acclaim all over Europe for his crockery act which consists of riding a special one-wheel cycle while catching cups and saucers tossed to him on the toe of a shoe, flipping them to his head, and then stacking them neatly while keeping his unicycle in motion. At left you see the start of the act in Berlin, Germany. The first saucer, Rudi says, is the most important. If he gets that one seated properly on his head, it's half the battle. In the centre photo, a cup is on the way up and at right, the stack is complete and Rudi is flipping a spoon: into the top cup for good measure. He is assisted in the act by his father, a retired performer, --Central Press Canadian. Among 17 U.N.

Classed for some time as officer in charge at Nanking, Mr. Ronning is due back in Canada next month for the first time in five years. He and H. L. Staines, 50, a clerk who formerly lived in Kaslo, B.C. are believed to have travelled through China largely by train. Mr, Pearson may have been refer- ring to those two when he told the commons that Canadians are leaving China, although some delays are be- ing put in their way. The minister told Gordon Graydon (PC--Peel) that Canada, unable to do so herself because she doesn't recognize the Reds, is having British | diplomats do everything that can be done for tne protection of "certain" Canadians who have been detained. Officials confirmed earlier that External Affairs has known for some time of the imprisonment of Dr. Stewart Allen of Montreal, director of a Canadian mission hospital at Chungking. Press reports have sald Miss Con- nie 'Ward, formerly of Vancouver, has been detained and released. The Department said a Canadien Dr. Robb has had the same treatment and there have been assusations against a group of Canadian' Ro- man Catholic nuns, believed to be operating an orphanage in the Can- ton area. Mr. Pearson told the House he didn't want to say too much at this time about the situation, but might have something further to say later.
