Air Training (Continued from Page 1) vigator training and gone home. Qualified opinion here is that an expansion of the training scheme-- a modest parallel of the wartime commonwealth scheme that trained 131,000 airmen -- is one of the more likely methods for Canada to boost her pact contribution. This is so even though it will be a year yet before the RCAF really is in ihe pévanted Janne busi- ness and currently is mainly giv- ing only basic training. The bulk of the advanced train- ing program will have to wait un- til the Canadair aircraft factory at Montreal starts producing 500 T-33 two-seater jet trainer planes which will be used to school men for the shift from basic-training, propel- lor-driven Harvards to jet fighters as the F86E Sabr d od ote ox $ ang te But the European countries, try- ing to build their air forces Gr are quite willing just to get basic training for their men and by this fall is expected to be in 3 Sood position to do more in that There are two main reasons. One that war veteran airmen' have reacted in considerable numbers to the bid for instructors. THe other Sha wrens a e av: e in numbers. grows Meanwhile, mainly on the prai- ries, wartime schools selected for the scheme as it now exists are be- g to come back into opera- tion, It was announced some months ago that seven prairie air- Jeids would be Jeaciivated to help ; an and 1300 airmen annually.

Brig. Gen. Willlam P. Nuckols, deputy U. N. public information of- ficer, told a press conference: "Lt. Gen. Nam II, chief Red Delegate, seemed to understand the United Nations position but couldn't appreciate the logic that He used to arrive at that posi- on." Joy quoted a definition from the Hague convention to emphasize the logic of the U. N. position. The Hague agreement says: "A military armistice is a sus- pension 'of military operation by mutual agreement between the belligerent parties." An official communique said de- legates 'failed to make progress toward an agreement" in their two - hour and 25 -minute session Wednesday. Nuckols said he wouldn't call the talks stalemated. Netotiators agreed to meet again Thursday, That will be the seventh session at which creation of a buf- fer zone was the paramount issue. The meeting was set to start at 11 a.m. (9 p.m. Wednesday EDT). U .N. spokesmen say that the old political boundary between North and South Korea is militarily in- defensible. The allies want, in the words of Wednesddy's U. N. com- munique, "a realistic demilitarized zone equitable to both belligerents" At Tuesday's session, Joy had explained how the Communists would benefit from the allied plan of creating a buffer zone along pre- sent lines. The battlefront now extends across Korea from a point in the west just south of the 38th parallel, northeasterly along the imjin river between Kaesong and this U. N. advance camp into North Korea and thence eastward across moun- tain ridges to the east coast about 25 miles north of the parallel. At the end of Wednesday's ses- sion, the U. N. communique an- nounced: "the basic views of both the United Nations command and the Communist delegation remain- ed unchanged." Communist propagandists dutside the conference hall told U. N. 'cor- respondents they thought a two-or three-day recess might be proposed to break the deadlock. An American spokesman at Kae- song said he had heard nothing of such a possibility. Red propagandists who suggested a recess might be profitable were trying to create the impression that the '"'victorious North Korean" agreed to cease-fire talks used only leaflets and posted placards. It ws the first time they had used litera- ture. One poster, printed in Korean, read: "Though the North Korean Re- public Army has emerged victor- gressors, our government and our great leader, Kim Il Sung, desires to end the fighting and there- fore our government has agreed to talks about peace in this confer ence with the American aggress- ors." The Chinese Communist Peiping radio broadcast speeches of two Red generals who touched on the possibility that cease - fire talks may break down. en. Peng Teh-huai, commander of ese troops in.Korea, said if the talks are brokem off: "World public opinion will see more clearly who is insisting on war and does not want peace. This constitutes a fatal danger to the aggressive war plans of the United States." Peiping radio broadcast a state- ment of Gen. Chu Teh, commander of Chinese armies, saying "We are eager lovers of peace' but "im- perialist countries do not want peace. "We Chinese have already gained rich experience in political and mi- litary struggle against imperialism and internal reaction," Gen. Chu said. "We must go on adding to this experience. "The Chinese People's Liberation Army must build up its various arms, strengthen itself in modern technical equipment, strengthen its combat training and its fighting power so as to undertake the his- torical task of defending the motherland and opposing imperial- ist aggression."

He said "this means now I can freely do what I want" and added his first act would be to marry the young girl who loved him so much she tried to throw herself from a police station window July 28 when she was refused permis- sion to remain in Italy any longer. Negrini, former Catholic mis- sionary to China who met Claire during a fund-raising visit to the U.8., said he will apply today for the official papers required for marriage in "Fool Mountain" (Continued from Page 1) Then began a see -saw fight that went on for five days and parts of five nights. Monday, preceded by a wither- ing artillery barrage, they advanc- ed against "Fool Mountain' under cover of fire from one of the guardian hills, The tough infantry men moved slowly up the rocky slopes. They had close support from tanks, Some of the enemy bunkers had only one entrance thefr firing slit -- and were defended to the death by North Koreans. The infantry used grenades and flame throwers against some de- fenders. Finally the last assault position was reached late Monday. Once again artillery blasted the craggy slopes and -- as it suddenly Sieppeq -- the infantry stormed up- wards. Allied guns laced the top of the crest. That did it. The attack by the crack troops swept up, broke the last of the resistance in 45 min- utes and finally secured the crest.

Gertrude Dewell, hospital superintendent, cut the ribbon opening the doors of the 50-bed Bowmanville Memorial Hospital. Patients from the old Bowmanville hospital will be moved next week. LE J WORK FOR PLEASURE Niagara Falls (CP)--Niagara Falls still is a honeymooners' paradise but it means work for a lot of people here. For in- stance, a statistically-minded member of the chamber of com- merce staff estimates that 666 hours of work were spent mak- ing out 8,000 honeymoon certifi- cates issued In the last two years. * > + CONTEST FIRST SEATS Bronte (CP) -- Ten candidates were nominated last night for the five seats on the council of this Lake Ontario community which fi- nally attaned status of a village after more than 100 years of try- ing. An election will be held Aug. 13. * + » LACKS HOUSING LAND Kingston (CP)--Kingston is unable to enter the federal-pro- vincial remtal housing scheme for lack of land, mayor C. A. Curtis said yesterday. He indi- cated action would have to await annexation by Kingston of a large section of Kingston township and Portsmouth vil- lage, due to take place next Jan. 1, * + » BLAME CAR SPEED Caledon (CP)--Peter McArthur, 4, may not know what a speed trap is, but if he did he would probably be in sympathy with the one in this village. The lad lost his seventh pet to traffic speeding through Cale- don when Rex, his hound pup, was killed by an automobile. The speed trap operating here since June 1, has led to summonsing of 391 driv- ers. Caledon is on No. 10 highway, 30 miles northwest of Toronto. LJ * w* LOST 50 YEARS Dundalk (CP)--Fifty years ago, Charles Wale of Hopeville, Ont., lost his gold watch in a field here. Alex Richardson, 12, recently found it and returned it to Mr. Wale, now ever 80. It was in fair condition, consider- ing the length of time it lay in the field. The gold was tarnish- . ed and some of the wheels were rusty. ' >» @ EDITOR RETIRES Huntsville (CP)--Harmond Ed- mund Rice Tuesday announced his retirement after 52 years as editor of the weekly Huntsville Forester. He will be succeeded by his son, Paul Herbert Rice, H. E.

Price Control (Continued from Page 1) month during the congressional de- bate, were applied to consumer items such as radios, television sets, refrigerator and other home appliances, shoes, apparel, cotton textiles, wool yarns and fabrics, machinery, chemicals and many building rhaterials. By rushing the orders out last night, O.P.S. avoided the immedi- ate necessity of rewriting the ceil- ings to conform to the new act, which entitles each manufacturer to pass on to buyers his full busi- ness cost increases up to July 26. Individual price adjustments now must be made. A month ago OPS said the orders would bring con- sumers more cuts than increases. Today it said the impact on family budgets is "uncertain." Ruin (Continued from Page 1) was 'jeopardizing the welfare of the community. I am surprised you would encourage the management stand in opposition to the board of conciliation recommendation and the Ontario government's compro- mise suggestions." In Toronto, Eamon Park, union publicity director, said the sugges- tion that the check - off was the only issue in the strike was "a cal- culated misrepresentation of the facts." He said there are seven other recommendations of the con- ciliation board covering matters af- fecting grievance machinery, vaca- tions with pay, and statutory holi- days which also remain unsettled. Mr. Park discounted a statement made Sunday by C. H. Millard, union national director, that union leaders would pull members from Timmins unless the strike was set- tled quickly. . Mr. Park said Mr. Millard's r®- marks merely were made in /pas- sing in a speech largely devoted to a discussion of the strike issues. "On the question of wages, the company and the union have not altered the position they took when the strike occurred," Mr. Park said. "The union is insisting on the full 13-cents-an-hour across-the -- board increase as recommended by the board of conciliation under the chairmanship of Judge Cochrane. The company has offered a two- cent wage increase plus a job- evaluation system, The board re- port recommended a job evaluation over and above its wage proposal." In his telegram to Mayor Fay, Mr. Timmins said the mine's en- tire board of directors had been in Sigse touch with developments and "the course followed by the mana- gement of the mine is in full ac- cord with the policy of the directors." Driver to Serve 14 Day Term For Drunk Driving Brought into Magistrate's Court this morning on a drunk driving charge as the result of an acei- dent at midnight of May 13, Nor- man Tabb, R. R. 1, North Oshawa, pleaded not guilty to the charge. First witness called by Crown Attorney Alex C. Hall, KC, was Dr. Walter Bapty, 198 King Street East, who told the court that ac- cused was brought to him for treat ment and a blood test after the accident. He said that Tabb was belligerent mood, submit to a blood the head injuries suggested by Defence Attorney E. F. Bastedo. Another crown witness was P. C. Van Allen, who with P. C. Clark went to the scene of the accident. He said that traffic was heavy at the scene of the accident, Simcoe Street just north of Alexandra. Accused's car, proceeding in a northerly direc.ion, was stopped at the point of impact, while the other car, driven by Christopher Sheffield, 33¢ Masson Street, went 84 feet further -before it was brought up on the boulevard. The defence attorney enquired if accused was walking around and looking about the scene of the accident, Van Allen said he was. Did he have any trouble walking around? was the next question. He was staggering, said the con- stable. Witnesses for the defence were O. G. Fallis of Peterborough and A. Wallace, Oshawa, who declared that they had been talking to Tabb who admitted on previous ques tioning having been in the Queen's Hotel for several drinks, and found no evidence of intoxication. He seemed quite normal to them. Magistrate W. J, Locke said, in summing up the case, that there was strong evidence that accused was drunk, and sentenced Tabb to 14 days in jail, with suspension of his driver's license for one month, and provision that his-car be im- pounded for three months. The following case, arising out of this one, involved a charge of careless driving against Christo- pher Sheffield, 334 Masson Street, the other participant in the acci- dent. Crown Attorney Hall again put Tabb on. the witness stand and went through the formalities of question and answer, and then took testimony from an additional wit- ness, Harvey Jones of Bowman- ville, beside whose car the collision Seenrged, It was revealed that Sheffield struck his head against the dashboard and was almost thrown into the back seat by the severity of impact. Defence Attor- ney A. W. 8S. Greer, K.C., pointed out that this was enough to cause him to lose further control of his car, as evidenced by the distance he travelled after the point of impact. Magistrate Locke took note of all the evidence and dismissed the case. New Hospital (Continued from Page 1) hospitals were it fot for the fact that municipalities bore -part of the burden, the speaker pointed out. HAPPY AUGURY The minister though it a happy augury for the future of the com- Nnunity that the provision for beds for babies was higher than usual in such cases. Invocation by Rev. Andrew Eus- tance, of Orono, began the cere- mony after the Legionnaires and the nurses formed up to the strains of the Bowmanville branch of the Legion pipe band. Chairman of the Board of Gover- nors of the hospital Melville 8. Dale sald that the municipality might well be proud of the modern, well equipped hdspital it now had. He thought the transference of equip- ment from the old Bowmanville Hospital, built in 1913, would be completed within a week. There were many people to be thanked, Mr. Dale said and not the least was the niemory of the late J. W. Alex- ander who built the original hos pital and donated the land upon which the new one was constructed. The Bowmanville Statesman and its editor, George James, were warmly commended for their work and support as was the Ladies Auxiliary and the Board of Gover- nors. A scripture reading by Rev. R. Seymour, of Enniskillen was fol- lowed by a short address by John James, M.P, and Hon. Rev. Major John Foote, V.C., Minister of Re- form 'Institutions, who is MLA for Durham. They both paid tribute to the ungrudging support which brought about the erection of the hospital. SUPT. CUTS RIBBON After Miss Gertrude Dewell, R.N., Superintendent, cut the ribbon formally opening the hospital Wal- ter Bradford, head of, the contract ing firm which erected the building presented pass keys to Architect Harold Smith, who in turn, turned them over to Miss Dewell. Prayers of dedication followed by Rev. 8. R. Henderson, of Bowman- ville and Rev. Mr. Dewdney, of Newcastle after which several wreaths were placed on the ceno- taph by Legion members. The pipe band played a lament after which Last Post and Reveille were sounded by James Nokes, of Bowmanville. The program was brought to a close with brief addresses by War- den George Walton. of Newcastle and Mayor Lawrence C. Mason, of Bowmanville, . The public was then invited to in- spect the hospital while the Orono band gave a concert. -------------- $300 BACON RATION Guernsey, Channel Islands-- (CP) ~OCustomers and clerks at a butcher shop in 8. Sampson were asked to remain while the butcher searched for a missing $300. Then a8 customer telephoned from her home to say the parcel of money had been delivered in place of her bacon ration, Post Mortem (Continued from Page 1) the bedroom door so he went in and found Wisiewski Andrzej had died during the night. "Information has come to light which makes us think that a post- mortem is necessary." said Dr. H. M. McDonald, the coroner, to The Times-Gazette this afternoon. The examination will be carried out to- day. Coroner and police were informed and a post-mortem examination is to be held on the body. Andrzej was 23 years of age and came to Oshawa from Germany less than Ws . ago. The husky former Polish Army soldier weighed over 200 pounds and had been employed as a laborer by the City Works De- partment. He was unmarried. A search is being made for the deceased's brother who is believed to be living in Whitby. Checks with Whitby Police and the local em- ployment office have not yet traced the younger Andrzej who arrived in Canada two months ago. Both brothers originally came from Warsaw and deceased was a boarder at the house in Sandra 8 treet. "Last night he seemed to be his usual healthy self and in good form. This morning I got no answer when I knocked at his door and when I went in I found him dead and cold," said Angul- oryk. Pravda (Continued from Page 1) arming to the teeth to attack the Soviet Union." He sald the main purpose of the Atlantic Pact is to avoid war and preserve the peace. The foreign secretary said his government had intended to devote its energies to the economic re- covery of Britain, but was forced to switch to rearming when it re- alized that Russia had adopted a post-war policy "whose only pur- pose seems to be to stir up trouble and international hatred." Pravda, which has a circulation of more than two million rejected Morrison's charge that there is no freedom in Russia. "In no country is there such freedom of speech, and freedom of organization for workers, farmers, and intellectuals as in the Soviet Union" it said in a 2600-word re- buttal. But, the paper added: "In the USSR freedom of speech, freedom of the press and freedom of organization does not exist for the enemies af the people, for the landlords and capitalists over- thrown by the revolution. Nor does it exist forincorrigible thieves, for subversive agents, ter- rorists and assassins sent in by foreign secret services." It said the prisons and labor camps of Russia exist 'for all these criminals." As for allowing BBC broadcasts to reach Russian ears untortured by jamming, Pravda argued: "They are known to be aimed primarily at encouraging the ene- mies of the Soviet people in their efforts to restore capitalistic ex- ploitation."" Most London newspapers ran editorials welcoming the Morrison- Pravda exchange as perhaps open- ing a chink in Russia's propaganda armor. But the Daily Express, which de- voted only half a column to the story, commented editorially: "Only the cable companies ben- efited from the exchange." The Times (independent) regret- ted that "to minds long prepared against it, an exposition such as Mr. Morrision's may not have much chance of acceptance as a complete chain of argyment.'" But, the news- paper added: "Many Soviet citizens, passion- ately interested in world events, have developed a talent for read- ing between the lines of their own newspaper, and they are eager to read and hear foreign opinions. . . on the whole it (the exchange) has been worth while." The Daily Telegraph (Conserva- tive) saw '"'one very solid advan- tage" in that "the Russian people will have had the satisfaction of reading for once something aboyt the outside world which normally is presented to them only through the distorting lens of soviet pro- paganda." The News Chronicle (Liberal) called the exchange "disappoint-|23 ing" in that Morrison's simple statement of the "the British way and purpose has produced an un- bending resentment of the Com- munist party line." A Foreign Office spokesman said Pravda's reply was "disappoint ing" and contained nothing "to suggest any effort had been made to use the occasion for a fruitful exchange of views or to improve relations between the two coun- tries." The Foreign Office spokesman told a press conference: y "The feebleness of its Pravda's references to the liberty of the in- dividuel in the USSR seems to sug- gest that the Soviet government is extremely sensitive on this score." The spokesman said Pravda's reply contained "admissions there are forced labor camps; that other freedoms are very qualified, both freedom of speech and of the press, and of jamming of BBC broadcasts to Russia." As for Russia's claims to demo- bilization and disarmament, the spokesman said that in June, 1945, Russia had over 10 million men under arms, and the British armed forces totalled 5,120,000. In June, 1950, Britain's armed Press numbered 690,000; Russia's ,600,000, he added. Since then, the spokesman said, Britain's arm. ed forces have been increased slightly. Denies A-Bomb Test Set for Australia Sydney, Ausiraiia (iceuters) Supply Minister Howard Beale who is in charge of the Woomera roc- ket range in Central Australia, to- day denied reports from London that Britain's first atomic bomb might be exploded at the range soon. He" said he knew "nothing at all" about such plans. The London report said Britain's experiments in Atomic bomb pro- duction had reached a point where a test. explosion was necessary. .s0litrol, Oshawa And District UNDISTURBED BY NOISE A nighthawk is raising two fledg- lings on the roof of the Belleville Intelligence office undisturbed by |P8 the din coming from the newspap- er's composing room.

Dam- age to the car was estimated at $40 and the transport $15. J.E. Gillette (Continued from Page 1) for General Motors and the Excel. sior Life Insurance Company. Cone nected with scouting in Oshawa for many years, Mr. Gillette is at pres ent the secretary of the local Boy Scout Association and he intends to carry on with that work in St. Catharines. "I have very much enjoyed work- ing in the clinic and it will seem strange to leave Oshawa but I had a good offer from there," said Mr. Gillette this morning. At present he and his wife and two young chil- dren live at 205 Athol Street East, and they are fortunate in having a house ready to move into at St. Catharines, 19 Boys Have Experiences On Camp Trip Toronto (CP) -- Nineteen tanned and excited youngsters set off to- day on another leg of a glorified camping trip -- a 25 -day, 4500- mile tour of northern states' and eastern Canada that ultimately will take them as far as the Maritime provinces. It's the first trip to Canada for the boys, ranging from 10 to 16 years old. They'll visit most major eastern Canadian cities before re- turning to their homes in and around Wheeling, W. Va., on Aug. They'll also get a good taste of camping out. Wherever possible they'll sleep on the ground. "We've spread our tent every- where -- on picnic grounds, in forests and even city parks," said 23 -year -old Rod Hibner, boy's work secretary of the Wheeling YMCA officials on the tour. "This is our travel camp," he sald, slapping the side of the bus that brought them here from Erie, Pa., ihe Previous stop. "We have an electric refrigerator, our own drinking water, 55 gallons of it.

Windsor Asks Quick Start On Seaway Windsor (CP) -- In a resolution prepared by the executive of the chamber of commerce, the Can- adian government is urged to pro- ceed immediately with the pro- posed construction of the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence waterway and power project as an all-Canadian development.
