Muriel Card of Thanks Mrs, William French and family wish to thank their relatives, friends and neighbors, for their kindness, sym, y and floral tri- butes during Birth Control Seen Solution To Famines New Delhi (Reuters)-- The In- dian government, faced the ever-recurrent threat of famine and disease, has recognized that birth control must be used io check the rapidly-increasing popu- lation, But it also realizes it will be along time before the principle of family planning will be accepted by Indians as the way to better health and higher living standard. Prime Minister Nehru put' the government's stamp of approval on birth control a week ago when he said in a report to the con- gress party: "It seems clear the state must encourage this family planning or birth control." But opinion is strongly divided whether birth control is either morally desirable or economically practicable. The health minister herself, Ra- jkumari Amrit Kaur, a Roman Ca- tholic, is opposed to it. The government's program, crys- tallized in India's first five-year plan, recently announced, envisage these methods of getting birth con- trol universally adopted: 1. State facilities for sterilization and advice on contraception on both medical, social and economic grounds. 2. State aid in establishment of research centres. 3. Development of safe, inexpen- sive contraceptives made with ma~ terials available in India. Family planning is so essential in India because in the last 50 years, the population has increased by 54 per cent to 356,890,000. In 'the last 10 years along, it has risen by 52,000,000 -- more than three times the population of Canada. The pressure on India's limited resources is obviously overstrain- ed. The standard of living is abnor- mally low. The average individual annual income in 1949 was the equivalent of $54. The all-India womens conference also hes issued directives to its 300 units all over India to concen- trate on birth - control work this -year and imported & supply of con- traceptives from the United States. There is no specific religious ob- "jection to birth control among Hin- ;dus or Moslems, such as there is 'among Roman Catholics. But many Hindus have an inherent dislike to tits practice.

The offense allegedly committed by Martin was that on February 8, of this year, he caused the plant of General Mills and Lumber Com- pany, Port Whitby, to take fire, ADDITIONAL CHARGES Since the original charge of arson was laid by the Crown two additional accusations have been made against the accused. The Crown alleges that on two occasions he sold cars, bought by the lumber company of which he was manager and re- tained the proceeds. The charges are for theft. In addition a rela- tive, Irene Martin, is charged with the theft of an automatic envelope addressing machine from the offices of the company. The preliminary hearing into the charge began on May 13 and contin- ued until evidence was completed yesterday. During that time hun- dreds of thousands of words of testimony have been read into the record whiéh is rapidly attaining the proportions of a large volume of very thin paper. CASE HIGHLY INVOLVED DIvidence in the case has been highly involved. The financial structure of the company was very ing to prove in its case that Mar- tin was culpable in several respects in 'his dealing with the financial the case throughout and is worke backers of the outfit. The Crown has been assisted in ing in conjunction with the Ontario Fire Marshall's Department. 'Prior to the preliminary hearing an en- quiry into the fire which broke out on the night of February 8 and almost completely demolished parts of the largé lumber finishing plant, was made by the Fire Marshall's Department. The transcript of this hearing which included the testi- mony of about twenty witnesses, including that of the accused will be read into the record and form part of the evidence to be consid- ered in the preliminary hearing. , Reserve Units (Continued from Page 1) Whether this represents a scal- ing-down of objectives is not clear.

For more than 116 years a Glasgow firm, John Fraser and Sons, Ltd., has supplied Scottish rabbit fur to every country Where fine felt hats are made. At its Glasgow factory, the firm handles about three million skins a year. Many of them come from individ- ual game keepers, shepherds and crofters in the same way as they did when the firm's factory was established in the Salt Market, Glasgow, in 1835. U.K. rabbit skin exports in 1950 were worth almost $4,200,000, In Loving Memory o OUR DEPARTED SISTERS _VICTORY L.O.B.A. 583 involved and the Crown is attempt- in Stolen Car Sunk InCreek Pair Sought Lindsay -- A stolen car plunged into Pigeon Creek Thursday, but the two persons in it disappeared be- fore police could reach them.

N. correspondents' problem which caused interruption of the negotiations had nothing to do with the neutrality problem, 4. "hTe liasion officers who at- tended the preliminary conference did not have the power to discuss decisive issues like the neutrality problem. The correspondents. prob- lem which caused interruption of the negotiations is just a tiny mat- ter. 5. "So it is not a problem that is crucial enough to cause inter- ruption or pupture of the negotia- tions. American delegates had taken up this matter at the con- ference. But the negotiations so far made little headway. Even the schedule has not been worked out. Therefore we consider it inappro- priate to let foreign correspond- ents come to Kaesong. 6. "We hold a firm stand that all issues should be based upon discussions. Therefore, your one- sided demand is not justifiable. In order to prevent this tiny problem from causing rupture of the nego- tiations we agree to your proposal to admit not more than 20 foreign correspondents as members . ac- companying delegates. We have instructed our delegates to offer all facilities necessary to you." HEARD FROM TOKYO Ridgway and the U. N, cease- fire delegates were at the allied 'peace camp' in Munsan. U. S. Army officers said their first word of the Pyongyang broadcast came from Tokyo, although army moni- tors have been tuned since Friday afternoon to Pyongyang and Pei- ping radio wave lengths awaiting a reply. The Red broadcast was concil- jatory but avoided a direct ac- ceptance of any of Ridgway's de- mands. Observers first reactions were hopeful that talks could be resum- ed soon. The U. N. commander had sent the Red chieftains a series of flat demands. He message indicated no intent of negotiation or comprom- ise, although he may have had that mind. He messaged them: "The assurances which I re- quire -- include as primary requi- sites the establishment of an agreed conference area of suitable extent completely free of armed person- nel of either side. Each delega- tion must have complete reciproci- ty of treatment to include complete and equal freedom of movement to, from and within the agreed con- ference 'area and complete and equal freedom at all times in the selection of the personnel in its delegation party to include repre- sentatives of the press." ADDITIONAL PROPOSALS He made three more proposals to implement this -- a five-mile neutral zone, guard -free roads, a 150 limit on size of delegations. Then he said: "If you agree to these proposals the present recess can be terminat- ed and the conference resumd with- out delay and with some expecta- tion of progress." From the Communist reply as reported by Tokyo, it will take further negotiations to bring the parties into agreement. Most striking difference of the two viewpoints appeared to be re- garding press delegations. The United Nations position was that they should be accepted without question as personnel of the U. N. commander on the theory Ridg- way can name anyone he wants. The Reds have insisted all along that the opposing sides should first negotiate on when newspaper men were to be admitted. The broad- cast conceded, in effect, 'send them along as part of your dele- gation but we won't like it." The Red suggestion to set up a joint committee to discuss "mea- sures for maintenance of guards and assurance of safety of dele- gates" opened a way to get armed Communists off the highway U.N. representatives drove from their camp to Kaesong, that Commun- ists refused to let 20 newspaper men go along with the convoy on Thursday, thus precipitating the crisis. Guards were posted by the Com- munists along the highway and in Kaesong itself eithout consulting the U. N. Full acceptances of Ridgway's demands would put both delegations on a completely even footing, and Femave talk of the Reds Dp! As the U. N. allies had waited throughout Friday night and Satur- day for the Communist reply, one allied authority said: "We are going to find out whe- || ther the Communists really want- ed an armistice."

Quebec Kings Plate Today At vine | Blue Bonnets Montreal (CP) -- Six Canadian- bred three-year-olds, topped by E. P. Taylor's Major Factor, are scheduled to run in the 98th run- ning of the Quebec King's Plate at Blue Bonnets race frack today. A record crowd is anticipated for the mile and one furlong run, with a purse of $5700, plus fifty guineas from the King. Major Factor, cinderella horse of the Taylor farm which won the $21,400 Ontario Plate at Woodbine last May, coupled with stable-mate Britannia, will likely be the heavy favorit :, Chief opposition for the Taylor color-bearers will probably come from Mrs. J. Tomlinson's Mount Branca, winner of two big stakes at Woodbine and Fort Erie in re- cent weeks. Veteran jockey Charlie McTague has been brought in to ride Mount Branca, which will carry the same weight as the favorite, 121 pounds. Alf Bavinton will ride Major Fac- tor. Brittannia, fourth in the Ontario Plate and winner of two races since, gets in at 116 with jockey Gil Robil- lard up. Stafford farm's Maiden's Ted, Dan Kennedy's Irish Canadian and Speed Cop, the only Quebec entry from Russel Graul's Luxiana stable complete the field. SAILORS?

Barking By BILL DANIELS CP Staff Writer Traders sat on the sidelines in stock markets this week and let prices drift a little higher. Trading was at its slowest pace of the year. Sales on the Toronto stock exchange were less than a million shares a day in all five sessions. For the third week in a row, the exchange set a record for the year in slow trading. Investors were reluctant to enter the market, Many observers thought the long spring slump should end soon with the resump- tion of last year's bull market. This week's dealings featured moderate advance among selected stocks. Base metals were firm, on the Toronto exchange. Otherwise there was no exceptional move- ment. Daily trading on all markets was fairly similar. Prices moved moderately ahead at the opening Monday in continuation of last week's advance. In the afternoon, interest slackened and the Toronto and Montreal exchanges clos fairly mixed. New York remaine slow in New York. Wednesday's trading was trend- less on Canadian exchanges. Gains and losses were about balanced and price changes were small. Mild strength in steels and rails caused New York to chalk up a quiet advance in slow sales. New York prices continued up- ward on Thursday under selective buying. Canadian markets edged higher. Base metals found the most support in Toronto while pa- pers were ahead in Montreal. Yesterday, all markets gave their best performance of the week. In New York a wide lst of Assues posted good gains. The Canadian upswing was not as strong but prices made a fair showing. From Friday to Friday the To- ronto stock exchange indices show- ed industrials up 1.25 at 324.676, golds down 1.96 at 77.82, base me- tals up 2.92 at 171.01 and western oils down 1.20 at 101.84. In the Montreal averages, indus- trials were up 3.4 at 223, papers up 9.74 at 801.2, banks up 0.22 at 29.75 utilities unchanged at 84.9, combined up 2.3 at 177 and golds down 0.3 at 60.08. : In New York the Associated Press average of 60 stocks was up $1.30 at 92.20. Duplessis (Continued from Page 1) ernment's wish for a newsprint price-cut for Quebec newspaper re- mained unchanged after learning of the newsprint makers' objection during a meeting last Wednesday. The premier called the meeting with representatives from 12 Que- bec newsprint companies after Quebec daily and weekly newspa- pers asked his government two weeks ago to study a memorand- um explaining a July 1 increase of $10 a ton for newsprint put them in a difficult situation. Price of newsprint now is $112 a ton in Canada, exclusive of a 10-per-cent sales tax. Premier Duplessis said the in- dustry's representatives "showed a desire for cooperation and under- standing." : The premier last month hinted that 'the government might consid- er some form of newsprint control if the manufacturers did not agree to a price-cut in Quebec. The premier said he told the newsprint makers that the govern- ment's view is that '"'our forest re- sources should first of all, and most of all, benefit the people of the province and its insitutitions among which are the newspapers. Indication that the coming fourth session would be the last of the 23rd Quebec legislature came when the premier renewed his offer to hold an unopposed by-election in favor of Georges Lapalme,; provin- cial Liberal leader. John C. Fremont, first Republi- can candidate for the United States presidency, was defeated by James Buchanan in 1856. Mexico City (AP) -- Mexico's fabled silver treasures are running out. The silver in the ores is getting thin. Veins are pinching out. High- er labor costs are making poor ores unworkable. Still the world's greatest pro- ducer of silver, Mexico's mines are not as rich as they were 150 years ago when Baron Von Humboldt, the German explorer and scientists, called her "the treasure house of the world." Since the Spaniards came more than 400 years ago Mexico has pro- duced nearly 200,000 pons of pure silver. And the tourist can buy a handful of sterling silver trinkets for $1. Nowadays, more than half Mexi- co's silver is » by product of other metals. When lead or zinc are re- fined, the silver is recovered. Higher prices for these cheap metals will probably step up silver production in the next few. years. Mexico's Silver Treasure Thought to he Running Low During the second world war, high lead and zinc prices made it High sible to work poorer ores. After the war, prices for the base metals dropped. Poor mines shut down. Silver production also dropped -- from 2400 tons a year during the war to about 1600 tons in 1946-49. * Now lead and zinc prices are up again -- and silver production should go up too. Mexico has always been a silver- producing country. Even before the Spaniards came, tribes were send- ing silver bars to Mexico City as tribute. The Aztecs tried to buy off Cortes with a huge silver plaque but the wily Spaniard figured there was more silver where that came from. He continued on to Mexico City to look for it. One time -- the Real del Monte -- whose ore once ran a hundred pounds of silver to the ton, mow gives less than a pound. News Briefs RUGGED OLD-TIMER Corner Brook, Nfld.

Not a Labor Management Dispute By JOSEPH LISTER RUTLEDGE One of the most popluar argu- ments presented by those attacking Mr. Justice Gale's decision in the Toronto Newspaper Guild case is that any appeal to the courts would involve months or years of delay. That might be an argument again- st dilatory practices of the courts. I) has no bearing on the point raised by Mr. Justice Gale, which was that a ruling of the Ontario Labor Relations Board had denied to some citizens the basic rights assured them under the la, If our courts are dilatory, whe- ther from apparent necessity or habit, the logical course is to rem- edy that fault. It is not logical to use it as an argument to deny any citizen his basic right of appeal to the law against injustice. The is- sue goes beyond the particular case involved, and far beyond the con- fines of any provinces. It poses the question whether the politigian can, at will, override the law, set it aside, or assume a position of su- periority toward it. In the specific case at issue it was precisely stated that the On- tario Labor Relations Board, in its handling of the Toronto Newspaper Guild case, had violated "the dic- tates of essential justice." It isn't any more a matter of labor against industry, of the Board's rights, of the Newspaper Guild, of the Globe and Mail, or of who shall be the bargaining agent with the com- pany. These become secondary to the basic question of the "essential justice" to which every individual and citizen is entitled. It is unfortunate that this ruling should havc hecome involved with a controversy between labor and industry, because private interests can so easily confuse sound judg- ment. The issue itself is clear enough, Is there any force higher than the law, or free from it? Is the citizen master of his govern- ment. or its minion? Are his pri- vate rights subordinate to the whims and prejudices and exped- iencies of politicians, or pressure groups, or nominated authority? Let us decide these questions with- out involving them in questions bit- ternesses, in the interests of labor, in the interests of industry and, first of all, in the interests ef the free citizen who does not wish to live in a Fascist state.
