News has been received at Na- tional "eadquarters that Her Majesty, The Queen, has gracious- ly consented to become Patroness of the Canadian Save the Chil- dren Fund. Royal Patronage has also been granted the British Save the Children Fund of which Countess Mountbatten of Burma is the President.

Her Majesty has been interested in the Canadian Save the Children Fund since her visit to Canada in 1051 when she donated to the Fund, her gift of five hundred bushels of wheat from the city of Regina.

This wheat has since been dis- tributed to poverty-stiricken vil- lages in Greece.

From January to the end of No- vember. 1952, the Canadian Save the Children Fund received dona- tions from the Canadian public amounting to approximately 3120.- ooo.oo and spent approximately 390,000.00 during the same period on relief for needy children and child welfare projects in Europe, the Middle and Far East and also in Canada.

The President of the Canadian Save the Children Fund is Hon. J. C. McRuer. and headquarters are at 490 Jarvis Street. Toronto.

Expect Pakistan - To Become llepublic”Soon

KARACHI, Jan. 8 - (Reuters)

,- The Dominion of Pakistan is

expected soon to discard her nom- inei allegiance to Britain's Queen to become a. sovereign republic. organized under a constitution along the lines of India's.

But like India. this Moslem country will probably remain a member of the British Common- wealth. The Queen will not be the head of state and Pakistan's na- tional business will not be con- ducted in her name.

Premier Kihwaja Nazimuddiu last month presented a special committee's report recommending the establishment of a "truly Is- lamic democracy". This report will be discussed this month by a constituent assembly and its ap- proval is considered likely.

Opposition to Pe.kisten's status as a British Dominion comes large- ly from the Moslem League. the ruling political party. Some Mos- lems, however, demand a com. plete break, saying that the Com- monwealth has not backed up Pak- istan in her dispute with India over control of Kashmir.

BELGRADE. Jan. 3 - (AP) - Premier Tito today called in Yugo- slevlais leading Roman Catholic churchmen for a conference. pos- sibly on etsablishing s new Cath-

olic Church independent of the Vatican. The Belgrade radio announced

after the two-hour meeting that it had been decided to set up a "special commission to prepare de- tailed material on the basis of which relations between the state and the church could be settled."

The seven preletes who attend- ed the meeting refused to com- ment. They included Archbishops Josip Ujcic of Belgrade and Naton Vovk of Sarajevo and Bishops Franco Sails-Scvis of Zagreb, An- ton Askamovic of Djakovo and Vic- tor Bulic of Senj.

About one-half of Yugoslavia'o 15,000,000 persons belong to the Orthodox Church. about 36 per cent to the Roman Catholic Church.

Vatican sources interpreted Tito's talk with the prelates as a. move to nationalize the Church and break all ties of its communicants with the Vatican.
