Malinovsky, speaking in red square to massed thousands today, said that the Russian people can rely upon their armed forces against "any aggressor.' He told the crowds in a speech commemorating the Bolshevik re- volution's 34th anniversary that the USSR "does not contemplate at- tacking the United States of Ameri- ca or any other country." The temperature was below zero as leading members of the Politburo, headed by Lavrenty P. Beria and Georgi M. Malenkov, reviewed a parace of Soviet armed might from the Politburo's tradi- tional position atop Lenin's tomb. Big bombers and jet fighters and bombers zoomed overhead in an aerial show led by Prime Minister Stalin's son, Lt.-Gen. Vassily Sta- Malinovsky, top commander of Soviet forces in the east during the Second World War, said the Soviet Union today is "fully; armed." Politburo member Beria, a de- puty prime minister, said , last night in an anniversary eve cele- bration that sthe Soviet Union would crus¥®any attack and tad the weapons to do it. Taking up this same theme. Malinovsky bitterly attacked the United States government, saying its leaders are conducting a policy of aggression and preparing for a new war, while the Soviet leaders aimed at 'peace and cooperation among nations." The air force section of the parade which began after Malin- ovsky"s speech was briefer this time than for many years. Led by a big four-engine bomber and four jet' fighters, it consisted of 18 four-engined bombers, 30 twin- engine jet bombers, and 36 single engine, speedy jet fighters. While these pldnes streake overhead, motorized and mechan- | ized .army units rolled rapidly | through Red Square. All types of | equipment were noted in the parade, including tanks, self-pro~| pelled artillery pieces, powerful | cannon, long anti-tank guns, and | trucks.

But two su ers ago Governor- General Alexander used the place for a summer holiday and during that period the vice - regal stand- ard substituted for the Union Jack.

Cne Lunch Box Coming Up, Sir! There's at least one citizen of Oshawa who thinks Oshawa Rai'way, Company Limited is the acme of courtesy and ser- vice. He is George Fogal of 100 "Kingsdale Road, a Duplate em- ployee, who found. to his dis- may, when he arrived at work today, that he had left his pre- cious lunch on the bus. With vistas of a long, hungry noon hour before him, he phoned up the bus company and into their sympathetic ear he poured his plight. And sure enough, the Oshawa Railway Company Limited, that great and good organization, set rolling the wheels of its public relations machinery. They de- livered George's lunch to him. In time for him to eat it, too. "Thanks," says George.

She said the father is not inter- ested in the boy's welfare. And, she said, '"'a child must re- ceive the love, guidance, inspira- tion and attention of a father to round out a full and complete up- bringing." Mrs. Sands asked the court to make the father 'impress upon the boy a father's love and care."

FIND HUGE DIAMOND Pretoria, South Africa (Reuters) -- A diamond weighing 283 12 car- ats and described as of excellent quality has been found at the Pre- mier Mine near here Johannesburg experts though the stone might be worth between $300,000 and $450,000 INDEPENDENT FIGHTERS "Free-lances" originally denoted the roving companies of knights and soldiers who sold their fight- ing services to different states, Seven Ming Sung Ships Rust Behind Iron Curtain By F. K. WU Hong Kong (CP) -- The seven Ming Sung ships which have stir- red prolonged controversy in Can- ada now are lying idle and use- less on China's Pearl river, be- hind the iron curtain at Canton. Reliable 'reports reaching here indicate that the Communist authorities have found the ships cannot be of use to them and the vessels, built in Canada with a federally - backed bank loan, are simply rusting away. They were seized by their crews after their owners, the Ming Sung Industrial Co. Ltd., failed to meet an instalment on the mortgage held by a Canadian bank. The pay- ment was made good by the Can- adian government which guaran- teed a $12 million loan to the Chinese frim, which has a subsidi- ary company in Canada. The explanation given here for the seizures was that the crews thought the ships would be seized for Canada in Hong Kong for pay- {ment of the debt. Shipping circles | here now believe the Communists may have ordered the Ming Sung |firm ---it operates on both sides of the iron curtain -- to take the ships to Canton and hold them there to avoid. further payments to Canada on the $12 million debt. The ships flew the Canadian flag because Hey were. registered in Canada by the Ming Sung sub- sidiary in that country. Regardless of the motive for their seizure, it apparently has backfired. There is no modern shipyard in southern China to overhaul or alter them and they don't dare venture out into the open sea again for fear of interception by Can- adian or other warships. (Canada's three warships off Korea have come to Hong Kong for repairs from time to time.) Though built for Yangtse river service, the seven vessels have a draught of at least 10 feet and it has been found impossible to | operate them between Canton and {points up the Pearl and West {rivers even at flood tide. Conse- quently, as they lie in the pearl river near Canton, they are of no | further use either to the Ming Sung firm or to the Reds. | But they are beyond Canada's control, Canadian officials familiar with {the Mjng Sung ship story said to- day the fact that the river boats were proving of little use to the Communists continued a situation that prevailed to a large degree Westminster Report Partisan Politics Out \¥4 In Churchill Cabinet By ALAN HARVEY London--CP -- Winston Church- ill's frequent references during the general election campaign to the qeed for a "broad-based" gov- ernment may be understood more clearly after a close study of the ngw British cabinet. Of the 16 members of the inner council, three of the more pro- minent are non-party men, and there several others who have generally stood aloof from politics in any partisan sense.' This is broadly in line with Churchill's campaign speech at Liverpool Oct. 3, in which he said. the country meeded a 'tolerant, non-partisan, non-doctrinaire" policy. The Liverpool speech was inter- preted in seme quarters as indi- cating that Churchill might be calling for a coalition government or party truce. Now it is clear he was thinking more in terms of a non-partisan administration than anything else. Churchill also promised that any now Conservative government re- turned in the Oct. 25 election would not be marred by any "dull exclusion" of Liberal and inde- pendent forces. He 'has already made good on that pledge by cfyering a government post to Clement -Davies, leader of the Lib- eral party. Davies declined on the ground that. taking office in a Con- servative regime would imperil Liberal independence. A remarkable feature of the new government is the number of min- isters appointed from the House of Lords. There are six peers in the present. cabinet compared with three in the last one, and enough others of blue blood in other posts to make the representation from the upper house greater than in eg any government since 1900, Harold Wilson, a former socialist minister, has criticized the new Churchillian team as foreshadow- ing "government of the people for big business, by the Lords." Other commentators think there may be one advantage in the high proportion of peers. In the rarefied of the upper chamber, they will be spared the necessary of appealing in the House of Commons to de- fend their policies. The three prominent non . party men are Lord Leathers of Purfleet, who has the imposing title of state secretary co-ordinating the work of transport, fuel and power ministries; Lord Cherwell, pay- master-general, with general re- sponsibility for scientific matters, particularly atomic energy; and Lord Ismay, secretary of state for Commonwealth relations. The work or Lord Leathers will 'be watched with special interest. A carpenter's son, born in the east end of London, he started work at 14 as an office boy earning 7s 6d a week. He was practically unknown politically when, 10 years ago, Churchill appointed him minister of shipping and transport. Freder- ick James Leathers, the ex-office boy, shed directorships in 60 com. panies spread across the world to take the job. He succeeded so 'well that Churchill wrote in one of the volumes of his war memoirs that in Leathers' presence, "difficulties seemed to disappear as if by magic." The late President Franklin D. Roosevelt is reported to have said Lord Leathers for Washington, Britain ought to reciprocate lease- lend by leting me have him."

At that time, an official said, there was so little business for them that the owners used them to relieve the pressure on Hong Kong hotels. A number of the ships, he said, were used as floating hotels. There was no information here as to whether the Communist custodians were putting them to the same purpose in Canton waters. Dictionary Has Own Attraction If there is one mania which is innocent, one passion which really does no one any harm, it is above all, even more than stamp ccllect- ing or ping-pong, the taste for look- ing through dictionaries. It is a taste which is very widespread, and a very tempting study might be written about those who are en- dowed with it, says a writer for French Information Service.

One day cne picks up the first dictionary which happens to be handy to look for a word whose meaning is not quite clear. Then in a nonchalant way one glances at the words which sur- round it, and this almost always causes some surprises, if only the surprising realization on this oc- tasion of the extent of our ignor- ance. LEARN OF IGNORANCE The person who thinks that he has been very well educated sud- denly finds out that out of the 20 or 30 words on a single page he does not even know half of them. This little experience has two re- sults: First, it gives us a sound les~ son in modesty; secondly, it insidi- ously fills our minds witlh a spirit of curiosity, whith, if we have the slightest tendency to nurse it, will go on constantly increasing to the greater profit of our culture. For the definition of one word demands the definition of another one, or several others, which we are in- evitably bound to look up, and so on, until the. urgent necessity. of getting back to some other work makes us shut the volume. From then on we are caught in the net, to use an expressive term. But it would be a mistake to con- sider this very curiosity, which sometimes has such modest begin- nings, as a frivolous or chancy one. On the contrary, it expresses some- thing which is very deep-rooted in us--the love of our language. Now, in my opinion, this is the purest and most unselfish form of patriot ism. There is no way of extracting from it some doctrine justifying nationalist, vanity or aggression. But there is in us a deep-rooted feeling which makes us aware of the important part played by lan- guage in our development and in that of civilization in general. And good dictionaries are the most oB- vious and most necessary witnesses of this great spiritual phenomenon. EXHAUSTING WORK For my part, I feel a sincere ad- miration and a profound respect for those men who devote their lives to this sort of task. It entails exhausting work over a long period of years, for which one reaps no great reward. Most of the people who form the ordinary public only Jaguely remember the names of thése men, or at all events they are far less well acquainted with these names than with those of the men who churn out insignificant little novels. I do not think that the Littres, the Hatzfelds, the Darmesteters and the Larousses ever managed to complete the "General Diction- aries" which they began; and the well-earned reputation which they enjoy in studious and erudite cir- cles is a posthumous one, That is why I consider it a sacred duty to mention--after some of my emin- ent colleagues have already done so--the "Alphalietical and Aanalogi- cal Dictionary of the French Lan- gauage," the second volume of which has jult been published.

The battle lasted more than seven hours. A battalion. commander whose troops had played a ceremonial re- treat at rear headquarters the afternoon before, addressed this message to his superiors at the battle's height: "We sound metreat only at B echelon (rear headquarters)." He had this to sa" of th» "amt. ing, which hit objectives within 500 yards of his troops: 'This is an- other morale booster -- tue Lrooys now can depend on air support by night." The enemy attacked determined- ly three times but each time found the defenders as solid as rocks. A few Communists man- aged to reach the inner perimeter of the defences, but were elimin- ated. The dttack was estimated to be at least in battalion strength, sup- ported by tanks, self - propelled artillery and heavy mortar and machine - gun fire. of the Oshawa Community Concert Association Mrs. Bateman has been active in the cultural life of the city and in the work of the United Church SAVOIE PROVES RIGHT TO TITLE Toronto (CP) Hardly any- body will dispute Armand Savoie's right to the Canadian lightweight title after what happened here last night. 'the dark-haired, two-fisted bat- tler from Montreal threw every- thing but the ringposts and the referee at Toronto's Solly Cantor to take a unanimous 12-round de- cision. He won from here to there with a devastating demonstration of infighting that had Cantor back-pedalling most of the route. It was eight rounds to two for Savoie with two even on the Ca- nadian Press score card. And it was the most convincing victory he has scored in four bouts witn the Toronto fighter. 'There were no knockdowns. Bothered by Cantor's straight lefts in their previous meetings, Savoie dian't give him a chance to uncork this weapon, the mosi lethal in his repertoire. The 23- year-old champion wno repre- sented Canada in the 1948 Olym- pics scored repeatedly with short lefts and rights to Cantor's body and face and, at times, appeared arm weary from his trigger-type punching. ; widvuie, Who learned some tricks of infighting in New York recently, nd Cantor's head bobbing with his six-inch chops to the chin and face. He broke occasionally to send over looping lefts and straight rights that rocked the Torontonian. Cantor took the first and sixth rounds with the 10th and 12th even. The rest belonged to Savoie, most by wide margins. Cantor's nose spouted blood from a cut on the bridge in the 10th round and six stitches were re- quired to close the wound. Savoie was practically unmarked. An electronic fuel gauge for United States Air Forces tells the pilot how much gasoline he has in terms of flying time left.
