Dr. J. E. Konagle, chief of the nutrition division of the federal health department, told the an- nual meeting of the Canadian Fruit Wholesalers' Association that millions of dollars are being wasted annually by those who re spond to the "sucker bait' of the vitamin manufacturer.

OSHAWA HOME HIT BY BLAST An explosion in a nome at 531 Dieppe street blew out almost the entire east wall of the house about one o'clock this afternoon. Three fire stations sent. equipment to the scene. It was understood there was nobody in the house at the time. Cause of the explosion was not immediately estab- lished. ee Platoon Chief M. Ostler said the blast may have been caused by a gas leak. There is a Consumers' Gas pressure control station about 10 feet from the build- ing. Ed Goleski, who lives in the house, was not home at the time of the explosion. His wife was reported to be in Peterborough with the Children. Red-Bloc Assist | To Cuba Reported | WASHINGTON (AP)--Sources here said today it has been de- termined that Conimunist-bloc countries have provided Cuba with $100,000,000 in military sup- plies and technica! assistance. More is expected, they said. Skirt PARIS (AP)--Security offic- ers announced today the arrest of seven secret army members caught with plans to overthrow the government. The develop- ment came as France awaited President de Gaulle's speech to- night on Algeria, which may touch off more violence. Authorities said the arrest of the men, identified as members of the secret army's operational headquarters, was the most se- vere blow to date against the terrorist underground in France. The secret army is sworn to prevent Algerian independence. At the same time, a bomb be- lieved placed by the secret army damaged a television tower in the northern city of Lille. Transmission at Lille was not interrupted, however. A bomb also blew in the doors and smashed windows at the regional- administrative head- quarters at Grenoble, in the Alps, and there were scattered outbreaks of violence in Algeria. The blows of the secret army came despite elaborate security measures in both France and Algeria agianst violent reaction to de Gaulle's radio and TV peech. He is expected to make some report on progress toward ending the seven-year Moslem rebellion in Algeria. In Paris .a plastic bomb, fav« orite weapon of the secret army, exploded in front of the apart- ment of a journalist. No one was injured, but damage was consid- erable. Guards were increased around the Paris city hall, post offices and a building containing tele- vision network offices. French authorities said the seven members of the secret army were five officers and two lawyers. Among them was a re- tired colonel. None is well known. They were arrested while meeting in an apartment building on the Avenue Franklin Roosevelt in downtown Paris Saturday night. FIND DEATH LIST Authorities said documents seized included a list of police officers to be assassinated be- fore the launching of an anti- government plot. National sec- urity police who studied the doc- uments have begun a series of follow-up investigations. Thousands of riot police, 32 tanks, 100 squad cars and light armored vehicles waited on the outskirts of Paris. Troops took over strategic positions in key Algerian cities to counter the threat of an uprising by the un- derground Secret Army Organ- ization of Europeans fighting to keep Algeria French. For days high sources have leaked the word that secret ne- gotiations between de Gaulle DE GAULLE'S TALK | AWAITED TENSELY Police, Tanks Paris and the Algerian rebels toward a cease-fire are well advanced. But few observers believed the time had arrived for announ- cing a peace settlement. There was growing specula- tion that de Gaulle will express guarded optimism about pros- pects for an Algerian settle- ment. He is also expected to de- nounce the rightist secret army and make another call for sup- port by declaring his Fifth Re- public, which grew out of the Algerian crisis, has brought the country stability and prosper- ity. One of the secret army's fa- vorite tactics is to. sabotage ra- dio and TV transmitters duting important government broad- casts and then run in secret army broadcasts on the same frequency. A heavy guard was posted on the base uf the Eiffel Tower, which has an important televi- sion relay. installation atop it, and guards were doubled around radio and TV installa- tions in Algeria, Leaders of the Algerian rebel government were meeting in Tunis to. study reports of its emissaries, who for the last two months have held secret sessions with the French on a eease-fire and steps toward in- dependence after 131 years of, French rule. Swiss Make Ist Winter Ascent Of Matterhorn ZERMATT, Switzerland (AP) Braving gales, two young Swiss mountaineers conquered the icy north face of the Matterhegn in the first winter ascent of 'the tall killer." They won the race Sunday to the summit of the 14,328-foot peak against five Austrian and German climbers who were swallowed up by storm-swept clouds and still were unreported today. Veteran alpinists said the missing five--led by two exper- ienced guides--may have given up their attempt to scale the peak and worked their way across the rocks to the wall's eastern edge and safety. They were last seen about 500 feet from the top of the pyramid-shaped summit on the Swiss-Italian border just before darkness feli and a_ westerly gale turned into a blizzard. The two Swiss--Hilti von Ali- men, 27, and Paul Etter, 23-- reached the top after a two-day climb. NELSON, B.C.
