Balk Russian Move To Oust Chinese New York, May 23--(AP)--Rus- sia failed. again Tuesday to oust Nationalist China and seat the Chinese Communists in the execu- tive committee of the United Na- tions International Children's Emergency Fund (UNICEF). When Russia raised the question, American delegate Katherine Len- root moved that the subject be dropped and she was upheld by a [vote of 16 to § with four abstain- ing. Pensions (Continued from Page 1) al pay-as-you-go' system is based on individual contributions," - he said, "persons in the upper income groups, through their own contri- butions, will have bought and paid for their own retirement security, as well as having made a substan- tial contribution towards the cost of retirement security for others, They would, therefore, have the right to benefit on the same basis as those who are actuelly in need." For those between 65 and 70, the problem was substantially different. The majority of them were still active and self-supporting, and it was doubtful if the principle of universal pensions for them was valid. Seek Provincial Views For the present conference, the minister said, the task is to con- sider the nature of the old-age le- gislation that should be devejopad | jointly between the federal gov- ernment and the provinces for | those over 65 who will not be eligible for the universal pensions. Mr. Martin said the federal gov- ernment at the opening stage of the conference is not laying any final views -before the provinces. This would be done only after a full discussion by the federal and provincial representatives. : Representatives of all provinces | were on hand for the opening ses- sion of the conference, expected to last two days. Two provincial heads of governments -- Premiers Duplessis of Quebec and Douglas of Saskatchewan -- were present, while cabinet ministers represent- ed the others. Threat of War (Continued from Page 1) the dispute, has been accused by Iranians of backing the British stand against nationalization. Step Up Pressure The rally--called by Ayatyllah Seyed Abolghassem Kashani, one of Iran's leading priests--was the latest move to step up pressure against any British resistance to government seizure of the British- controlled Anglo-Iranian Oil Com- pany. | The law nationalizing the giant | firm was enacted more than three | weeks ago, but the government has given no hint of how it intends to carry it. out. 1. "We hereby declare to the whole world the unbreakable will of the Iranian people to take over the former oil com- pany without any conditions." 2. The British note protesting nationalization is interference in international affairs and "we here- by declare it rejected." 3. Parliament had the right un-| der the United Nations charter to nationalize oil and "the former oil company, which is only a business | concern, must surrender to the will | of the Iranian people." | 4. "Rumors of dispatching para- | troops from Britain are considered | by the Iranian people as wild | | + | ageression." : | and Mrs. | be out of High School for this term. | Charges Bell Telephone Closing Eyes to Bookies Toronto, May 23--(CP)--Norman | Munnoch, counsel for the Bell Telephone Company of Canada, said today that a number of "mis- leading statements" had been made about the company before the On- tario legislature's committee in- vestigating criminal justice admin- istration. Mr. Munnoch appeared before the committee with H. G. Young, the Telephone Company's Western Ontario general manager, to answer to police testimony that the opera- tions of large-scale bookmakers were being aided by telephone ser- vice. . Referring to a bookie case in Etobicoke Township, in which the company was criticized for lack of co-operation with police, Mr. Mun- noch said: 'The only reluctance was that of the then attorney-gen- eral in not ordering us to remove the phones." At yesterday's sitting, Chief Con- stable John Chisholm of Toronto said the telephone company isn't doing all it might to assist police in locating bookie joints. The chief said the firm has a "legal and moral obligation" to aid in detection work. Telephone in- stallations men could tell at a glance, he 'sald, whether they were installing a phone in a bookie joint. Chief Chisholm said he was con- vinced that the Bell could show, upon request, how many calls were going from betting spots and where most of them went. News Notes Of Scugog Island MRS. D."

It disapproves of any general price freeze; but it sees a possi- bility that controls in some form may become necessary unless there is a real effort on the part of every one to make present mea- sures work. ! To make them work, the review | says in effect, there must be public co-operation and confidence, and no profiteering. It sees no wide- spread evidence of profiteering but adds that "it would be foolish to suggest that it is non-existent." It states that "the logic of over- all price conrol is a controlled economy,' and comments in part: "From the time that price ceil- ings were imposed, and govern- ment would be faced with an in- creasing number of decisions in- volving the choice between more controls and retreat from ceilings established. "There is no doubt that the gov- ernment would have to deal right | away with the problem of export | controls and import prices and sub- sidies; and not much later with that of wage and salary controls. "The policy of monetary re- straint and fiscal measures con- tained in-the recent budget con- stitute a fundamental attack against inflation, They get at the cause--excessive demand. "It may be that they were not applied soon enough. Possibly they are not being applied to a suffi- cient degree. But there can be no doubt that they represent the right approach . . . "But if there is a problem here, it is surely not oné which calls for the immense paraphernalia of general price control. Public watch- fulness and consumer . resistance, supported by a general indication by the government of what consti- tutes profiteering and by a willing- ness on the part of the govern- ment to investigate, and, if neces- sary, to intervene, when price in- creases appear to be unreasonable, should be sufficient to meet the oroblem." | China Says U.N. Action Path to War London, May 23 (AP)--Commun- ist China warned members of the United Nations today they would be held responsible "for all the con- sequences" of any embargo on sup- plies to the Red country. A statement from the Chinese foreign - affairs ministry, reported from Peiping by the Soviet News Agency Tass, assailed last Friday's U.N. embargo as "illegal, slander- ous, a violation of the U.N. charter" and "a malevolent attempt to ex- tend aggressive war." It was Red China's first official reaction to the U.N. embargo. "All those countries which are following the United States in ban- ning supplies to China and Korea will bear responsibility for all the consequences arising from their hostile acts towards China," the statement said. The warning did not elaborate. Distruct FINE SPEEDER $20 A fine of $20 and. costs or 10 days in jail was imposed on Rus- | sell M. Jennings, of Woodbridge, on a charge of speeding by Magistyate PF.

The weapon is believed to be the ground forces' development of the napalm (jellied gasoline) bomb which the air force has used throughout the Korean campaign with so much effect. I watched it in action. An Ameri- can commander gave the order fo fire and 10 Chinese advancing to- ward U.S. defenses in the Pukhan valley disappeared in a searing mass of flames, The flames roared 200 feet into the air and enveloped 100 square yards. A great cloud of smoke rolled over the area. No sign of the Chinese remained on the devastat- ed patch of ground. Details of the weapon still 'are secret but it is understood to be the result of experiments by US. soldiers who applied their own in- genuity to produce a variant of the napalm b. Blast alone is understood to be instantaneously fatal within the wide range of the explosion, Pene- trating splashes of fiery, sticky sub- stance cause death in agony for any one within reach, The great burst of flames also absorbs all oxygen in the air for many yards around, suffocating other victims. Says Israel Good Market For Canada Toronto, May 23 (CP) -- Israel offers a big market for both goods and investment from Canada, in'the opinion of its representatives who are here for the Canadian National Trade Fair May 28-June 8. The delegation, which will appear at the fair for the first time, with a wide assortment of exhibits, held a reception last night. Harry A. Shadmon, representing the Chamber of Commerce of Tel- Aviv and Jaffa, stated that in 1950 Israel bought from other countries $285,000,000 worth of goods, and sold to other countries only $36,- 000,000. In this trade, Canada sold to Israel $14,000,000, and bought only about $500,000. Mr. Shadmon said that Israel's population is increasing by miillions and that great projects are afoot to develop the country. In this con- dition, he added, she would for a considerable time be a big market for those with goods to sell or money to. invest, "Creation of new industrial and agricultural enterprises is our first and most important task. Of total imports, 26 per cent was foodstuffs, about 15 per cent raw materials, and 60 per cent finished and semi- finished goods. In this 60 per cent lies a tremendous opportunity for any commercial and industrial firm that wishes to co-operate with us with regard to investment pros- pects." He put Israel's present needs, if there were means of meeting them! at $500,000,000 in semi-processed an@® finished goods, and he stated that Canadian money spent on goods from Israel or in investment in Israel, would be used for the purchase of Canadian goods and raw materials, Among Israel's exhibits at the trade fair will be textiles and fash- fons, diamonds, silver, metal and brass novelties, embroidery, oil paintings, toys, calendars, greeting cards, gramaphone records, religious objects and books.
