To Hold Reception For Returning PEI Veterans Here Tonight

Presbyterian Sessions Continue

TORONTO. June 9-(CP)-De- legates to the 78th General As- sembly oi the Presbyterian Church in Canada today voted down a request for investigation of the General Board or Missions' policy in British Guiana.

The request ea in the form of a memorial to eat year's as- scmbly from Rev. Thomas B. Maxwell oi Toronto. Mr. Max- well said that he and two other missionaries had resigned from their posts in British Guiana in December, 1950. after the board had made a,public pronounce- ment in British Guiana that the purpose oi the Canadian Presby- terian Missions Schools was "not to make Christians or to build up the church. but solely to educate."

The memorial was rcierred to the board at last year's assembly for study and today the board chairman, G. Deane Johnston. rs- commended that the request be rejected.

Rev. J. C. Robson oi Huntsville, Ont.. asked if it was true the three missionaries had been bar- red from any future foreign mis- sion iieid. Mr. Johnston said it was. and Mr. ltobson spoke in favor of the suggested investiga- tion. charging that Rev. W. A. Cameron. secretary of the board. had made the public statement objected to, and that it placed the missionaries in an embaraa-

sing position. . replied that his

Dr. Cameron statement had actually been that the purpose of government schools in British Guiana was to educate. not to evangelire. l-ie ex- plained that many oi the children attending the schools are Moslem, that the government allows 20 minutes each morning for re- ligious instruction and "it would not be honorable to go further and "use the schools for evange-

in.

Mr. Johnston's motion was sup- ported hy the assembly.

The assembly also decided to

tsin to deal with ministers and students wishing to serve the Canadian church. and setting up a bursary to contribute to- wards trans rtatlon costs.

itev. Fran uwsen of Halifax said the church was "pussyiooi- ing" on the subject oi war if it adopted the suggestioni "That the church accept a declaration oi faith that Christ cornmistlon- ed the civil authorities with the

with respect to the proposed bus services are outlined in a brief

filed by the Board with the Legis- lative Committee on Transporta- iion which opened its inquiry into the matter yesterday.

The brief reads as follows:

"The Charlottetown Board of Trade, being a body organised to advance the commercial, industrial and civic interests oi the City of Charlottetown in particular, and oi the Province oi Prince Edward Island generally, is. like the ma- jority oi the citizens oi this Pro- vince, keenly intercstcd in the various transportation services op- erating in this Province, and thus finds particular interest in the present proposals oi the Canadian National Railway Company for substitution of bus services here in lieu of present mixed train pas- senger services.

"Accordingly the Council oi the Charlottetown Board oi Trade re- ceived s delegation oi C.N.R. of- ilcials at its Council meeting oi April 20th last and was presented with the various proposals of the Company re these bus services. Following such presentation our members queried the Railway oi- flcials in detail on various aspects oi the proposed bus operations and .

lift Blockade" A Of Iiadiolerlin

BEIRLIN. June 10 -(Tuesday)- (AP)- Britain today lifted the seven-day armed barricade oi Rus- -sia-'s- -Radio Beriinsheadquarters.

western commandant: of Berlin approved the action at is meeting yesterday. The decision. which came on the heels of some minor Russian gestures oi conciliation, disappointed anti-soviet Germans who had hoped the Russians would be expelled from the station in the British sector oi Berlin.

But the weaiarn-- commandants took the view that the barricade was a weapon that might boomer- ang if continued much longer. They agreed the barricade was a limited operation which had sch- ieved most oi its aims in easing soviet pressure on the Berlin bor- der. and could be used again if the situation grew worse.

Maj.-Gen. c.1".C. Coleman. British commandant. ordered the Royal Scots inisntrymen and military police to remove the bar- bed wire which scaled of! the iso- room Soviet "island" in West Ber- lin since last Tuesday.

Carrier To Sell With Atom Bomb

PORTSMOUTH, ling. June 0 - (AP) -- The aircraft car- rier Campania will leave port tomorrow with Britain's first atom bomb to be tested this summer oi the northwest coast of Australia. .

Reliable informants coniirm- ed that components oi the bomb have been placed aboard the closely-guarded 13,000-ton vessel.

”Not one man in the station service. a sectlonman or a bridge and building department employee will be effected by the proposed change over to bus service." said Mr. Frank A. Gaffney, Chiei oi Transportation Research for the Canadian National Railways. Montreal. when he gave evidence before the Legislative 'rransportat- ion Committee yesterday.

The hearings of the Committe opened in the Court House yester- day morning on the application of the C. N. R. for licenses to inaug- urate bus services here.

Mr. Gaifney also brought out that there would be no stations abandoned in the Province and that there would be a. dolly freight service maintained. Both of these points he emphasized were con- trary to rumors prevalent.

He said that the Railway was not asking for anything as he pointed out that the company was present in response to recommend- ations by,the Provincial Govern- ment and private individuals to the Turgeon Royal Commission on Transportation. Mr. Gaifney also said that briefs had been filed be- fore the Royal Commission on be- half of the Associated Boards of Trade of the Province.

He added: "I think I should stress to you that our proposal is unique in this respect. We are of- fering a modern highway service with all of the flexibility. comfort and speed made possible by the operation oi the best type buses. in addition, we say to you that; during the periods of the year when it is impossible to give a service by highway, we will re- store service by rail." He also stated that "despite weather and road conditions" all passenger ser- vices will be continuous.

Read By Mr. Robinson,

The Canadian National brief was read to the Committee by Mr. W. E. Robinson, Vice Presi- dent snd General Manager, but the answering of technical ques- tions and the elaborating on it were leit to Mr. Gaifney. Also present at the hearing for the Railway were Mr. J. W. 0. Mac- Dougall. regional counsel. Mono- tonuur. c...'r. Montgomery, sup- erintendent of the P111. Division; and Mr. L. J. MacDonald, Divis- ion Freight and Passenger Agent.

The Island Motor Transport Company was represented by the local manager, Mr. Ray Stuli: Mr. Carl Bird, manager of the S. M. T., Saint John; and Mr. K. M. Mar- iln, local attorney. Members oi Transportation Committe hearing the proceedings were Messrs. W. F. A. Stewart, chairman: J. Bren- ton St. John; Frank Myers. 1-ion. Keir Clark, B. Earle MacDonald and J. W. Don Campbell.

Following the presentation of C.N.R. brici Mr. MacDougsil said that the earnings of the Railway were so greatly under the operat- ing expcnses that the matter had been one oi serious concern for a long time, and added that it was the wish of the company to sup- ply as efficient and good a trans- portation service as was possible.

After presenting the railway brief Mr. Robinson cailed- the at- tention of the Committee to the fact that since the briei hail been filed the company had instituted a trucking service between Sum- mcrside and Tignish. Under a short cross examination by Mr. Martin. counsel for the I.M.T., he said that in general the psOp0SCd bus routes would parellcl those oi the 1.M. T. This had happened also when the C.N.R. had purchased the Mac.-
