Hunting liuerrillas New Pastime For canadian Troops

- ' By Bill Bole

MIRYANG. Korea. Jan. 22- (CP) -rcuenrilla-hunting seems slated to replace deer-stalking as a favorite training pastime of the Princess Pa.tricia's Canadian Light Infantry in Korea.

The whole camp is .envious of the company commanded by Maj. Vincent Lilley of Hamilton, which returned from s hunting trip Fri- day with a. record-estimated con- sorvatively - of four Communist guerrillas killed and at least five injured.

There were no Canadian casualt- fer;

I-Wceviously, deer-hunting had been a favorite of the troops. Now all are eager for a. sample of the acifion conducted by Maj. Lilley- "training with a stimulous."

Cpl. Bill O'Brien of Picfou, N. B.., and Guelph; Ont., and Pte

.1-larcid Edgley of Winnipeg were

each credited with killing two guerrillas. Eclgely is believed also to have wounded at least five others. ,

O'Brien scored with.two bursts from s Stan g-un. Edgley is "has- ooka-man" in a ,' A command- ed by Lieut. Harold Ross of st. Catharines, Ont.

Maj. Lilley said the operation indicated guerrillas operated in small hands of 12 to is. 'Ilhoy ap- peared well-dlsciplined and well supplied with food and equipment.

It was the first organized clean- up attempt by the Canadians. one village. hidden in mountoino terrain, was ordered burned to the ground when stocks of ammunit- ion were found there and in near- by hsystacks.

In Severe Weather

The foray was carried out in sev- er,e.weather but none of the men seemed the worse for that. In fact. these who had cold when they left camp were cured. water bottles froze and rifles had a coating of HOHIF frost a quarter of an inch thick each morning.

' -"This is the best training they could get." Maj. Lilley said. "It has Elli hasiud all the lessons we have been teaching the men: a 'msn must be hard; his feet and legs must be in good shape to tackle the hills; he has to be able to pack 48 hours' rations end, if not: y. make them last three or four days; he has to be able to get along only with what he can carry on his

Canadians Facing Austerity Period

OTTAWA. Jan. ernment economists predict belt- tigvhtening for Canada this year, even though this rapidly-expand- ing country is expected to pro- duce a record-smashing 320.000.- 000.000 in goods and services.

They estimate that the gross national product. ,sum total of everything Canada produces, will zoom ahead by about s2,500.0i)0.000 over the previous high of 317,500.- 000.000 in 1950.

Canada's national income, they added. likely will run to a peak of bl5.400,000.000, an .increase of about 51.400.000.000 over the l'.'i'.')0 record of 814.000.000.000.

Normally, all this rapid expan- sion of production would lead to an increase in the standard of liv- ing, through bigger sales, greater availability of goods and higher incomes.

This year, however, with soviet- backed Communist aggression fac- ing the free world. the prospect of increased living standards has grown dark. the economists say.

A loomlng,record peacetime de- fence budget. linked with tax boosts and price inflation,-is ex- pected to devour most of the 52,- soo.ooo,ooo increase in total pro- duction.

Big Defence Budget

Estimats of a defence budget of more than l,000.000.00I) for 195l-52 already ave been fore- cast. Finance Minister Abbott told the 1950 Federal-provincial con- ference his now fiscal budget may run to about 33.000.000.000, a climb of about s5oo,ooo.ooo from 32,500,- 000,0(I) in 1950. .

Price inflation already has set

in. The economists predict prices may jump between five and 10 per cent in 1951. That will be one factor in the dollar increase of tolal production. Another factor will be volume. This is expected to run to about three or four per cent. -Another factor in price inflation is President Truman's statement that he will ask for autlirrily to spend si4o,o3o.ooo.ooo in the next We years.

This unprecedented peacetime

spending by the United states Government will tend to drive prices even higher and officials

here fear that this trend will spill over into Canada. bringing with it even greater belt-tightening than anticipated.

Defies llcds, Stirs countrymen '

By Thomas A. Reedy

BERLIN. Jan. 2-(AP)-An 18- year-old ciei-man's defiant cry that he would rather die than bow to Communist rule stirred his country- men today on both sides of the ir-

on curtain. - "I love my freedom more than my life," Herman Jmeph Flade shouted to a C mmunist court in Russian-controlled Dresden. ' Fired by this outburst. West

Berlin youth organizations sched- ulcd a mass demonstration to- morrow night against the death sentence imposed on Flade as an enemy of the Communist state.

Similar rallying reaction to the youth as an anti-Communrilst sym- bol has erupted throughout West Germany. Rias, American-licensed German language radio, is spray- ing Russian-zone listeners with the story of the Communist propag- undo manoeuvre that boonieranged.

The uproar might be a factor in keeping young Flade alive.

Although sentenced to. be be- headed 10 days ago. astern-zone authorities report the execution has been delayed. Execution usually follows sentence in a day or two.

The report on how the 18-year- old youth upset the Red propagand- isis was related by several of his friends who slipped into West- em Berlin

He was seized on a. charge of distributing leaflets last fall urg- ing the people to vote against the Communist controlled "National Front" ticket. This was the only slate perm.itted'on the ballot by the party bosses. While being ar- rested Flade knifed and wounded a policeman, reported since recover- ed.

An "enemy-of-the-stalle" trial was ordered. and Communist Party followers were directed to be pre- sent, Flade's friends said. A public address system was set up over

broadcast to those outside the building. x Flarie. A Roman Catholic from Bavaria, was told he faced harsh punishment; even death. He replied,

town Dresden:

"I love my freedom more than my life."

Flade admitted that he handed out anti-Communist asserting that he opposed the system. The chagrrined prosecution flipped off the loud- speakers, and the court imposed the death sentence.

Will R. Bird of Halifax. Nova scotia, author of "A Century at Chlgnecbo". "Here stays Good Yorkshire". "Sunrise for Peter” "Judgment Glen”, "The Passion- ate Pilgrim" and "This is Nova Scotia", addressed a meeting of The Maritime Women's Club of

Montreal, Incorporated, at the Windsor Hotel recently. Mr. Bird edits the familiar book review

column "In the World of Books"

Mr. Bird began his writing car- eer by winning a prize from The Halifax Sunday Leader and be- coming a. feature writer for that paper. Then he began to free lance and was highly successful, selling fiction in thirty different publi- cations and winning three prizes in one year for essays on histori- cal subjects. In 1933 he joined the staff of the Nova Bcotia Govern- ment Informatlon Bureau, and later became a writer for the Gov- ernment. In 1931. he was sent overseas by MacI..ean's Magazine to cover the old battle front on which the Canadian Corps had served.

Mr. -Bird descended from a. long line of Yorkshiremen who first settled -in Nova Scotia in 1772. He fought with the 42nd Royal Highlanders of Canada in the first World War, winning the Militaiw Medal at Mons. Mr. Bird is a. Past President of the Cana- dian Author's Association and a fellow of the I-lsliburton Society of King's University.

Mr. Bird took for his subject "Is a Maritimer I Canadian?" pointing out that Confederation was -requested by "Upper Canada" at a. time when Nova Scotia was prosperous. and had more ship- ping per capita than a y other country in the world.,Af er Con- federation, Nova scotia's taxes were taken to Ontario and little or nothing given in return, which

tawa point out that when each step is studied in detail there might be a better understanding of the problems confronting the producer, packer and various dis- iributors concerned in bringing beef to the consumers' table.

What is the story, for example, behind a choice two-year-old. 1.000 pound steer that farmer John Doe sells to the packer for i approximately 30 cents I pound? During the steer's short life he would normally have spent about a year and a quarter feeding on pasture, consumed one ton of hay. four ions of silage and about 600 pounds or more of grain, depend-

poor relaiions by Ontario and Que- bec, each of which thinks itself the real Canada. But since the oil strike in the West and the devel- opments there, Alberta feels it is the real Canada, while the new generation of the West thinks the Maritimes but an icy rocky bar- ren fringe by-passed by ocean ira- vel which goes directly to Quebec. In a tour of Canada he found that in each of the provinces visited. he found that it considered itself the real Canada, and that at the great parks in Alberta, he was told there were no such persons as Canadians. Everyone was fill- ed to the ears with sectionalism. He realized that such pride in Province and town and country- side was healthy in every respect. It builds up a competitive spirit. Yet -. when any crisis arises we are all Canadians and proud of it. The Maritimes have had rough

join with the rest of the Dominion in an all-out war effort, and the records show that Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island led all Canada in enlistments in the armed services during World war II. Halifax and Saint John are the main ports in wartime and every unit of every type is Canadian. Overseas we are all Canadians, and provinces are forgotten.

An inorasingly large number of American visitorsiare asking where they can find a real Canadian. Theyiimeet with New Brunswickers, Quebecers and British Oolumbians, but where do they uncover Jack Canuck. so. if the American wants he can see pure-bred Canadians. more home-raised. in fact, in the Maritimes than anywhere else in Cana.da.- And Ma.riti.mers have sent more of their folk to high seats, such as college presidents. doctors and clergy, per capita than any other part of the Dominion.

animal. , When the packer finishes his part of the business cycle, how- ever, he finds that he has only about fit!) pounds (there may be considerable variation in this fig- ure) of beef to sell the retailer. 40 per cent of the live weight of the steer being eliminated in the dressing process. At 50 cents I pound (Grade A carcass beef sells in Canada today from 50 to 54 cents) the packer will receive about's3I00 or approximately the same amount as he paid the farm- er. The packer must rely on the value of the by-products as hides, fat, casings (sausage covers): ani- mal feeds and fertilizers which go to make up the 40 per cent reduc- tion from live weight to carcass weight, to offset dressing, hand- ling and selling expenses and al- low him some profit on the busi- ness transaction.

Turning to the activities of the retailer. we find that when he converts the 600 pounds of beef he bought into retail cuts, this in turn suffers a considerable shrink- age. and the retailer may end up with only about 540 pounds of saleable beef. Reerit research findings on the Chicago market show that even the choicest steer will yield about 40 pounds of port- erhouse steak which the retailer- can sell at a top price of about 90 cents a pound. compared with about 160 pounds of - hamburger and stew beef retailing at a. much lower price.

Other of the more expensive cuts include sirloin and round steak totalling about mo pounds, rib and rump roasts '70 pounds; chuck or cheaper meat about 100 pounds and about 40 pounds of fat, bringing the total quantity up to about 540 pounds of beef that the retailer sells at varying prices to the consumer from the 1,000 pound choice steer. These figures of course, are only approximate, but they do serve to show what If in processing a live beef
