ERNEST SCHULZ Luke-; 430 pm. on Saturday for Gertrude Hughes, wife of Ernest Schulz, who Bord ean ae aner away in her Ferry, on July t [Jon By FORBES RHUDE Canadian Press Business Editor Wool prices are probably influ- enced more by psychological fac- tors than are the prices of any other merchandise, the Wool Bureau, Inc., says in a news re- lease from Toronto. It indicates that these factors in- clude what people think is going to happen 3siher than what may actually happen. It says that supplies for next season are likely to be rather bet- ter than might have been antici- pated, but that they are not such as to depress prices in the next season -- unless psychological fac- tors upset calculations. The release reviews on the 1950- 51 dominion (Australia, New Zea- land, South Africa ) wool -selling season, new ended. In September, the opening month, average price of 64's had corres- ponding rises of 85 and 193 per cent, Then, by June, 64's had' fallen by 46 per cent from March to 12 per cent above September; and 46's by 52 per cent, to 40 per cent above September. At final sales in Brisbane and Perth last month, however, the market showed a firmer tendency, which has been borne out by early reports from current London sales. Concerning the supply situation, the wool bureau notes that the heavy stocks on hand at the close of the 1 war, now have been sold, and it had been thought that the total supply for the 1951-52 sea- son would (trade stocks apart) be limited to the current world clip, estimated at about 2,300,000,000 pounds cleaf, To this, however, must be added some 80 million pounds clean of New Zealand wool, unsold and un- shipped from the 1950-51 clip as a result of the dockers' strike. In addition, owing to Argentina's po- licy of granting export licenses for wool only at prices above current rates, there is a considerable quan- tity of medium -and low -crossbred wool in Argentina which will be carried over into next season. Of psychological factors in the last year, the release says: "Superimposed on the over-all tight supply situation of wool, the knowledge (or belief) that United States buyers on government ac- count were prepared to outbid everyone else, is very likely to have raised prices to an artificially high level. . . "Similar forces (working in the opposite direction) have come into play lately, and there is little doubt that the absence of U. 8. buying for military purposes has been a factor." Fatalities (Continued from Page 1) Toronto while trying to protect a 13-year-old baby sitter. Ralph Bochner, 23, has been charged with his murder.

Broke Several Rules Officer Testified Haled into Magistrate's Court this morning on a double charge of care less dri and of driving without an operator's permit, Don McCoy of 107 Seventeenth Street, New To- ronto, pleaded not guilty to both charges.

After a short time Hal reported that he had gone and a search was launch- ed that at times had 400 persons-- including 200 soldiers -- searching the bush and nearby marshes. Almost every adult member of St. Edmund's township joined in the hunt, searching through the night and on into the afternoon. Police and passing motorists came to their assistance and the woods were filled with shouts and flash - light beams all Saturday night. Vincent was found about a mile- and-a-half from where he had dis- appeared.

Iranian government officials said afterward a "spirit of conciliation" prevailed at the meeting. Details worked out by the Iranian Sabine; then were cabled to Lon- on. Britain has gccepted nationaliza- tion in principle but has objected to the way iran proposed to carry 'it out. Though ready to accept Iranian ownership of the oil instal- lations, Britain wants to retain con- trol of refinery operations. Unconfirmed reports from Teh- ran said that Premier Mohammed Mossadegh's cabinet is willing to discuss "additions" to the nation- alization law which would water down some of the drastic features to which Britain objected.

Latvian Hurt In Picnic Row Burlington (CP) -- A beer-bottle fight at a Latvian picnic near here Sunday sent Oscar Ozoilins, 40, of Toronto, to hospital here with criti- cal injuries. The extent of his injuries have not been determined. Ozoilins was still unconscious 18 hours after be- ing admitted to hospital. He was badly beaten in the fight and is be- lieved to have been run over by an automobile. Chief Constable Harvey Hunt of Nelson township said the fight broke out at two o'clock this morn- ing on a farm eight miles north of ere. "It appeared to be the culmina- tion of an extended scrap in which the injured man took part," said Chief Hunt. '"'Apparently he was quite obnoxious most of the evening and they ganged up on him." Scores of persons from Toronto, Hamilton, St. Catharines and the surrounding districts attended the picnic. Most had left before the fight took place. Marshall (Continued from Page 1) into developing an attitude of let- down. "It is tragic," he said, "that we should be so susceptible to pro- paganda, that a single speech would create a state of mind that can very seriously react to our disadvantage in the world picture. "That is the trap, that is the cleverness, and the ready response to it in American is tragic. We should not change our whole pro- cedure every time the Kremlin de- cides on some new front. That, to my mind, is distressingly serious, because with so little effort they have accomplished so much to our great disadvantage." The single speech to which Mar- shall referred was Soviet Deputy Foreign Minister Jakob Malik's bid for Korea truce talks which led to the present negotiations in Kae- song. Gen. Omar N. Bradley, chair- man of the joint chiefs of staff, told the committee an armistice or cease - fire in Korea 'may lead to our undoing unless we take steps to prevent such undoing." Family Tragedy her crib a few feet from Gofton's body. Another child, Carl, 2, had been staying at a nearby farm for six days. The slayings occurred about 7:30 Saturday morning on the Gofton farm about 15 miles south of this village and about 18 miles south- west of Kitchener. The bodies were found eight hours later. Neighbors said Gofton had often threatened to kill his wife. Police had frequently intervened in do- mestic quarrels. The quarrel that preceded the shooting apparently involved Mrs. Gofton's attention to another man. The chores on their farm had been done and she was putting some bundles into the automobile when Gofton became enraged apparently thinking she was about to take the baby and leave. Police who pieced the story to- gether, said he killed her outside the kitchen door with one bullet. He dragged her body indoors, then proceeded to a front bedroom, passing the baby in her crib. He shot Cecil and Dolores as they lay sleeping in a double bed. Return- ing to the kitchen, he shot himself. Only four bullets were used. Police said they could not under- stand why he didn't take the life of the baby unless it was that he overlooked the child in his frenzy. After discovery of the slayings, the baby was taken to a neighbor whose daughter cared for her. Her brother, at the farm of Hans Kon- dert, was too young to comprehend what had occurred. He was taken for a picnic Sunday afternoon. EXECUTIVE DIES | Montreal (CP) -- Arthur L. Brown, 65, well-known. in the Ca- nadian electrical industry, died Sunday after a long illness. Vice - president in charge of sales of Northern Electric Com- pany, Ltd, and president of Dom- inion Sound Equipment Ltd., he was an organizer of the Canadian Electrical Manufacturers' Associa~ tion and the Canadian Electrical Council, serving as president of both organizations. | Must Support Wife and Child Charged in Magistrate's Court to- day. with non-support by his wife, Mrs. Jean B. Burleigh of 419 King Street West, was Cyril J. Burleigh of Toronto. Pleading guilty to the charge, Burleigh told the court a story of previous separations, reconciliations after appearance in family court, and details of a new business ven- ture he had embarked on where he said he employed three men. Crown Attorney Alex C. Hall, K.C., asked accused where he had been living. He replied Toronto, and on further questioning admit- ted that he had been picked up on a warrant, Accused was bound over by Magistrate W. J. Locke to keep the peace for one year in the sum of $200, a condition of the bond being that he pay to the support of his wife and daughter $14 a week be- ginning August 20. Korea (Continued from Page 1) said Gen. Nam II, chief Communist delegate, "stated it was also his definite understanding that hostili- ties would continue during the cur- rent armistice sessions." 1 Nam was replying to an earlier "clarifying" statement by vice-Ad- miral C. Turner Joy, senior U.N. delegate. It- was the first official hint of any prior misunderstanding on this point. Joy gave a detailed analysis of the allied and Communist propos- als for a military dividing line across Korea. The Reds want a zone 121% miles wide along the 38th parallel, pre- war political boundary between North and South Korea. The allies want a 20 - mile - wide zone along the present battle lines. Most of these lines are in- side Red Korea, on the average about 20 miles north of the 38th parallel. Joy asked the Reds for comment on the U.N. proposals 'so that the final solution to this item may re- flect our mutual views." Brig.-Gen. William P. Nuckols, U.N. briefing officer who attends the sessions, said Nam merely re- peated what he has said before, the same words but in different order. Nuckols said Joy's statement concerning a final solution was "another invitation to the Com- munists to consider the U. N. Stand on t» buffer zone." Before today's started, Nuckols made it clear to newsmen that the U.N. considers the 38th paral- lel "a political boundary" and not suitable for a military dividing line. Nuckols attends the cease - fire sessions and briefs correspondents on what happened. This morning he told reporters the 38th parallel was 'an arbitrary line picked out of a hat, so to speak," in 1945 for the exchange of Japanese prisoners. The Russians handled those north of 38, he said, and the Americans took care of those to the south. Thus it has 'no military signifi- cance," the spokesman added. This view was bitterly attacked today by Communist radio stations in Peiping and Pyongyang. Both warned indirectly that the allied stand might force a break- down in cease-fire talks. Pyongyang radio pulled no punches in its attack on the Allied stand. It predicted a Red victory at Kaesong with these words: 'Just as America lost militarily on the front, there is no doubt she will be defeated in the conference." The broadcast charged the U.S. was attempting to "invade import- ant parts of North Kgrea," and said "the United States has re- jected cease-fire at the 38th while paying lip service to peace." Pyongyang then gave these three points as essential for peace in Korea: 1. Withdrawal of opposing troops from the 38th parallel. 2. Cessation of the '"'American military invasion." (The Commun- ists have indicated they want all fighting to stop -- on land, sea and air -- while the negotiations go on in Kaesong.) 3. Withdrawal of foreign troops from Korea. (The negotiators agreed to pass this on to higher levels for discussion later.) Meanwhile allied reports told of an ever-increasing Red buildup of their forces in North Korea. Fifty U.S. Air Force night attack pilots reported highways in west- ern Korea above Pyongyang were clogged with traffic last night. They said they spotted more than 1800 enemy vehicles, and attacked more than 600 of them. Last week they reported as many as 1000 vehicles a night moving south along coastal roads. 5 Drowned (Continued from Page 1) capsized. But prompt action by others at the scene saved many lives. Within two minutes an es- timated 25 to 30 boats were on hand, with their occupants snatch- ing victims from the water. One boy was reported to have rescued a mother and her small baby, which she held tightly in her arms, At least a dozen men jumped into the water fully clothed in suc- cessful rescue attempts. ; The bodies of those who were drowned were taken to the town of Edmundston, some 120 miles north- west of Fredericton. Electrifies Fences Hydro Line Sets Fire, Ottawa (CP) -- A 255,000 volt charge from a hydro power line Sunday crackled down a tree on a farm near here, turning wire fences red hot and setting fire to fields and cedar posts for hundreds of yards in all directions. No one was injured. Firemen quickly put out the fires. James E. Spratt on whose farm the incident occurred said: "We thought for a moment we had been hombed. It was the J weirdest sight we ever saw." TORONTO STOCKS Toronto (CP) -- Prices tended a little higher today in early stock market dealings.

GRAIN:- Winnipeg Winnipeg (CP) -- Grain prices generally were lower in dull trade early today on the Winnipeg grain exchange.
