THURSDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1951 THE DAILY / TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE SEVENTEEN Canada's Weather Delays Movie for Scandinavia Regina (CP) -- The weather is poor in Western Canada for mak- ing motion pictures. That's the opinion of two Danish movie men interviewed in Regina recently. "Sunny Alberta isn't sunny, dry Suskatchewan isn't dry and beauti- ful British Columbia is foggy," Palle Bojesen of Copenhagen, film producer for the Danish Film Board lamented. Mr. Bojesen, cameraman, are hour color film Sea to Sea." The p~ir had been in Canada sev- en weeks and had poor picture- making weather since they arrived in the wes?. Most of the film had been made except for the wheat harvest part which they hope to take in the Regina area. The film on Canada is to be more than travelogue. It is to be built ground principal Canadian activi- ties. HELP APPRECIATED The Danish film makers said the movie is to be finished in Canada at the National Film Board and is to be released to most of the Scan- dinavian countries. "It will give an honest picture of Canada," said Mr. Bojessen. The Danes said they have had wonderful co-operation from Cana- dian people in making the film. If they had had just a little co-opera- tion from the weather the film would have been finished without delay. The Saskatchewan wheat pool will be fully covered in the film since the Danish people are co-op- eratively minded. -Mr. Bojesen, a former school- teacher, was in Canada in 1949 making radio recordings for the Danish state radio and for the CBC international service, and Erik Olsen, making a one- called "Canada, ENTHUSIASTIC SEAMAN London (CP) -- Peter Vargas, 21 - year - old seaman arrived at the docks to see his ship steaming down the Thames. He dived into the water, then struggled to shore and collapsed. He finally got aboard the ship -- after a trip in a police launch. NAZIS BROUGHT LUCK . Melbourne, Australia (CP) -- Mrs. Ida Hampel, a Polish immi- grant, won $25,000 in a lottery with a ticket, the number of which was the same as a number tottooed on her sister's arm while she was an inmate of a Nazi concentration camp. The sisters will share the prize. HEADED ADVERTISING FIRM Toronto (CP) -- David McMil- lan, 67, President of Grant Adver- tising of Canada Limited and for many years prominent in Canadian advertising circles, died yesterday. Seek Means To Defeat Radar Mirage Toronto (CP) -- The National Research Council is scanning Lake Ontario from nearby Scarboro Bluffs tn an effort to make lake shipping safer. y In a two-year project expected to cost $100,000 the council is seeking the answer to the problem of radar mirages. Radar mirages are images re- ceived on the radar screens of lake ships of objects which aren't really where the screen says they are. Like ordinary mirages, the images are "reflections" of distant scenes. To find out what causes the mir- ages, research workers have their own 2000 pound radar set in a box that slides up and down a cable- way from the level of Lake On- tario to 200 feet above it. A movie camera takes & picture every 30 seconds on the radar screen, recording what the invisible eye sees over the lake. At the same time recordings are made of temperatures, humidity and other weather data. When all the facts are put to- gether, the researchers hope to know what conditions cause radar mirages and what to do about it. The theory is that radar waves, being in the very short 10,000 meg- acycle range, act somewhat like light waves. If the radar beam gets caught between two layers of air over the lake, it will bounce along between them for as far as 100 miles away. Normally the beam used by ships extends only 20 miles or less. When the National Research Council has all its facts, figures and findings completed, they will fill a manual for guidance of ship radar operators, and remove the' element of chance from radar Absurd Argument ses eilaiado By JOSEPH LISTER RUTLEDGE The genuine will to be friendly to organized labor and to respect its efforts to better working con- ditions must have some limit. It seemed to have reached and passed that limit in the proposal adopted by the Canadian Congress of Labor at their recent convention in Van- couver. This new and rather unex- pected demand was to the effect that unemployment insurance should be paid to workers who vol- untarily refused employment by Ailing, But Determined Mohammed Mossadegh, Iran's aging and ailing premier, waves to greeters at Idlewild airport, N.Y., with assistance of a friend who supports the premier's hand from behind. Mossadegh arrived in New York with the expressed hope thai the U.S. "will oppose any steps" to block Iran's nationalization policy. He is scheduled to make a personal appearance before U.N. security council on his country's oil dispute with Britain. The aged Mossadegh, because of ill health, will make his headquarters at a New York hospital, ~--Central Press Canadian. reason of their decision not to cross a picket line. The multitude of non-union work- ers in Canada who have been con- sistently paying into this fund will feel, perhaps, that their organized fellows are lacking in a sense of humor as well as a sense of jus- tice when they ask payment from the fund for an unemployment that is of their own choosing. Even among certain groups of or- ganized workers there exists a more realistic attitude. In its con- vention in Halifax last year. The Trades and Labor Congress of Can- ada was presented with the same suggestion but refused to approve it, contending that any such action would quickly bankrupt the fund. The unorganized worker prob- ably will add to this practical view the belief that there is a sharp dif- ference between unavoidable unem- ployment and that voluntarily ac- cepted in defence of union policies. He may well feel that organiws2d labor is strong enough to get by pressure advantages that the unor- ganized worker cannot hope to se- cure, To -ask these unorganized workers to accept an added drain on a fund that they have helped to provide in order that arganized workers can further strengthen their policies and their bargaining power, which frequently is used without any thought of its pos- sible repercussions on the workers who are not involved, is putting a rather overly heavy strain on their public-spiritedness. If picketing is so advantageous to organized labor, it would seem that whatever circumstances may arise from this action should .be the problem and the obligation of those benefiting. There seems to be no ground at all for assuming that any such obligation should be car- ried by the working force as a whole or be a charge on the public purse. UNLUCKY STREAK Wellington, N. 8.
