Probably these amounts have been kept deliberately low in view of the plans for e. new central anmiory at Charlottetown.

In representations being made for an early start on cortstructio. of a new armory eat Charlottetown. it is pointed. out by both Govern- ment and Opposition members for Queen's iihot there are two large and well-equipped almories in the capital, one only a. quarter of e mile from Parliament Hill end the other two miles distant in the city of l-liuli. lf Ottawa. and Hull can be served by two large armories, moat recent of vmich cost $350.- 000, it is argued. surely the Defence Department can effom at least one for Princes Edward Island.

It is further argued that a new aninory st Charlottetown would go far to stimulate recruiting and general interest in military uuatters in, the Province. With a splendid new airport at Simumereide in the course of rcconversion into an su- scihool of the most modern tyre. tiheimembers for Queen's feel that their constituency too. is mtlilv-l to consideration for defence establlahmefild.

P.E.l. Juniors Share Opportunities. .

Over 85 per cent of the pupils on Prince Edward Island are. members of the Junior Red Crou. These young people share oppor- tunities for improved health, good fltlléildhlp, end world understand- ng.

In speaking to the members of Central Council cerly this week, Dr. Pheir, Chairmen of the Junior Red Crcu Committe, celled for en incmase oif suitable Junior Red Cross personnel in each ‘of the nine provinces.

"lit is obvious that the world to- day is motivated by self-interest.” Dr. Phair pointed out. “It is with- in the scope oi’ Junior Red Cross to appeal to young people, both in elementary and secondary schools, for interest in the welfare of oth- ere in their own country end in other countries, and in guide its members into understanding of the. human race and thus sway from prejudices of race. color. cued, language and political affiliations."

Although membership in the Junior Red Cross now totals 8M,» 467 in E446 Canadian schoo‘ uusnn, an increase of administrative per- sonnel could elmost double this membership, he felt.

"Young people need e purpose

in their lives," Dr. Phsir seid. "They are effected quite es minis as, if not more then, adult oil- sens by the vest feeling er security in the world end by the present instability of family life in our overcrowded communities. They need constructive outlet for youthful energies. Junior Red Cross, with a wise leadership pro- gram. can harness those energies to lestinl. Practical good." ' Miss Jean E.

OTTAWA. May d-A p picture of large quantities of bee! rcachinl the market but still not Bhwsh to llllply» the country's de- mand was Pieced before the prices committee today.

The committee was questioning president J. S. McLean of Canada Packers on the effect on prices oi the large amount of beed which Wu in startle lest month.

Mr. McLean estimated that since Awil 1 beef in storage baa fslleri by about 10,000,000 pounds. The Committee hed before it iniwmat- ion that cattle slaughtering have been running at about 24,000 a week for the last two months.

Committee counsel H. A. Dyde summed up the problem.

"We see cattle coming to mar- ket at 24.000 s. week. You have st the first of April 10,000,000 pounds of beef in cold storage. In April we sec the some number coming to market. We are puzzled. We gift see why the prices ere going

"I wish I knew the answer," Mr. McLean replied. "I don't."-

This morning he told the conn- mittee he was amazed that de- mand for meat remained so high with prices at their present level.

"No beef is being put in storage all Present." Mr. McLean contin- ued. "Thc movement is out, and pretty rapidly. It's quite oleer no bee! is being withheld from con- WmPtlW- We're Dushinc it out es fast as we can. because May is the deadline for frozen beef." , '

Chairman Paul Martin said that. on the basis of Mr. McLean's esti- mates there is still 30.000.(I)0 pounds in storage—4,000.000 more now than last May.

speculate Russia Really For Truce In AThe iiolii War

By JM. ROBERTS, Jr- (Assoedated Press News Analyst)

There‘ is considerable specula- tion gotrig around as to whether Russia might be ready for some sort of truce in the cold war.

Since the world flare-up over the rage of qteohoslwskls she has n scorned quite so aggressive. She didn't pin Finland quite so tightly to. the wall as had been. enpected. She didn't put urp much of a battle for e Communists in Italy's election. er march toward e cleereut showdown in Berlin halted. It leest temporarily, with one foot in the air. Greece's guer- rillas have been left almost alone to face the Government's spring cilia-naive. Anti-American props- lends which reached a crest dur- lng Congressional consideration of the Marshall Plan has diminish- ed at least to nominal. Russia has displayed, for her, s. relatively de- tached attitude toward the Pal- estine problem.

Some think this may rneen e period of Russian stock-taking. ini the realization that their tactics are only stiilfening anti-Commun- ist sentiment.

Well, that realization in Mos- cow is the objective of everything the snti-Cotnmuniet bloc hQs been doing. United States foreign pol- icy has beep to keep the door open, even iwhile organising its defences. That may be one tee- son State Secretary George Mer- shqll is ursins Congress not to start an eutoipey on the U.N. lust yet, If there ls even the most be- draggled eortofdove en route from east to west, nobody wants to put pp e cloud Ln which it ni-ilht Bet 0st. -

la- militery aid for western Dumps

may be mother reason why Mer- sheli doesn't want a brawl now over the UN. Another battle over "bypassing" charges. like the one which accenvpenled the imitation of aid for Greece and ‘Turkey, would be no help.)

Any possibility cd a Russian softening must be viewed with caution. ‘Iihe Politburo mlghfl make e big profit from a period of neetnese and light. A lot oi‘ sentrles along the anti-Commun- ist dafenee line might does off to the strains or e lullaby which stressed the contract of Western rcsirnament while Moscow seeks only peace.
