FALHER. Alta.. (OP)-The trad- ual shifting of tons of earth near this Peace river town 276 miles iorthwest of Edmonton ls threaten- ng to gobble up farm land and dam the Little Smoky river.

Fissures could be seen at least six years ago but a marked move- ment began two to three weeks ago at the top of the gradually-slow ing north bank of the Little Smoky. The earth has fallen al- most straight down for depths ranging up to 60 feet over a stretch about four miles long.

No reason for the strange move- ment has been determined but residents believe heavy rains this year, draining underground into the river. may be the cause.

At one point the movement has started to block the Little Smoky. Jack Merchant, who farms nearby. said earth appears to have been pushed up from the river bed.

Allan Merchant, another farmer, says markers set in the ground showed the earth fell 18 inches in 12 hours. At another time observ- ers saw the ground slip away about three inches in two hour.

WHOLE FIELD DROPS

The biggest drop is on a 14-acre farm field owned by null Ray, 11 miles south and two west of Fal- her. The entire cultivated field has dropped almost straight down. leaving a smooth clay cliff about

U. S. iimiis Oat imports

DENVER. (AP) President Eisenhower Monday limited im- ports of oats into the United States from all sources to 40,000,000 bush- eis during the period Oct. 1, 1964 to Sept. 30, I955.

Eisenhower decreed that vir- tually all of the 40,000,000 bushels may be brought in from Canada. His proclamation said that of the total. up to 39,313,000 bushels of :2 pounds each "shall be imported from Canada.”

The balance, 888.000 bushels, may be brought in from other foteign countries. ' ,

The proclamation setting forth the restriction was based on a re cent unanimous report on oats sub- mitted to him by the tariff commis- s on.-

A commends- tlons were based onothe Agricul- tural Adjustment Act which auth- orises import limitations when for- eign slupplles are interfering with -or threatening to interfere-with the domestic price-supportor mar- kcting- programs. To TRAIN GERMANS

The strip of subsiding land is gashed with crevices. Fissures also can be seen developing farther away from the river, possibly in- dicating additional cave-ins.

A call owned by Mr. Ray was lost in one of the numerous crev- ices and was found accidentally by a dog which fell into the 15-foot- deep hole. The call was pulled out with a block and tackle.

Planning Opens Convention At Saint John

ssrrrr JOHN, N.B. (CF) .. 1-he Community Planning Association of Canada, aimed at stimulating community interest in town plan- ning. opened its thrice-day sixth annual convention Monday with a panel discussion on "pitfall; or me unplanned area."

S. H. Pickett, director of plan- ning at St. John said planners were well aware of wornout homes an.l slum conditions. It was ”clsar- ly the duty of any planner to get people rehoused."

J. I. Mevittle. director of the institute of public affairs at Dal- housle University, urged planners to "look ahead to anticipate basic trends." He said Maritime com- munities hava "an inborn resis- lanes to selection of sites for in. dustrlal purposes."

.The Saint John trwri planning director. P. R. Fowler, saw arrival of trailer communities in the Mari- ttmes as "one of the main prob- lems we must face." There must be "hard and fast rules," with properly supervised mobile court sub-divisions and payment oi nor. msl taxes by promoters of mobile homes.

RAILROAD PROBLEM

I. A. Willis, Moncton, chairman of the OPAO New Brunswick divi. sion, said the "railroad problem" was one of "major significance" in Moncton. where the tracks had "become less a public service and more and more a barrier separat- ing one portion of the town from another."

Most municipalities cannot live within their annual tax budget, said J. Phillip Dumaresq of Hall- fax. "They are forced into a capital budget. mortgaging the future tax- paylng ability of tgcommunity and mortgaglng values of property."

Fortlfirm In Wage Dispute

WINDSOR. Ont. (GP)-Ford of Canada Monday night repeated that it has "no more to give" its 5.700 employees.

A 1,500-word statement released by Rhus M. Sale, president of Ford, slid the company had reach- od ”tha absolute limit" 'of conces- sions it could afford to make to Local 200, United Automobile Workers (C10-CCL).

"We have reached the point at which the ability of this company to 'compete successfully has be- come vastly more important than a few months of dearly-bought industrial peace."

MEMBERS OF SEVERAL PARTIES PRAISE MENDES-FRANCE

Expect: French To Okay Pact,

PARIS (AP) Chances for Freneh parliamentary approval of the London agreements to rearm West Germany appeared bright Monday.

Members of centre and rightist parties as wall as followers of Gen. Charles de Gaulle praised Prem- ier Pisrre Mendes-France for pro- teciing French sovereignty and re- taining : close partnership with Britain in the nine-power negotia- tlons.

The key to the success of the new plan. which replaces the Euro- pean Defence Community plan killed by the French assembly, ap- peared to lie in the hands of the left-of-centre movement Republi-

caln Populaire tMRP). and the Socialists. One MRP members, who de-

clined to be quoted by name, pre- dicted the premier will swing a

substantial majority behind the 118- A

cisions to bring West Germany into the expanded Brussels al- liance and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization.

CALL! MEETING

Mendes-France has called a ses- sion of the assembly beginning Thursday to hear his report on the London talks. The ratification vote, however, may not come for several weeks.

When the legislators reconvene. this likely will be the attitude of the key MR? and Socialist parties:

MRP. the party of Georges Bidsult and Robert, Scbumsn. is staunchly pro-European. The party strongly backed the defunct EDC plan. and many members are still bitter against Mendes-France for falling to push it through the as- eembly. Mendes-France. who had no part in negotiating EDC, re- fused to stake his government's future on that treaty in a vote of confidence and sharply criticized the plan himself.

The Socialists, whose support could give the premier an over- whelming margin on the London agreements. scheduled a meeting of their executive committee for Wednesday night. Guy Mollet, part secretary. said he could not comment on the London agree- ments untli he had studied their texts. Moliet said the Wednesday meeting will decide whether a na-

tional council of the party should

-But Lloyd asked why was it necessary to have at first a tem- porary agency. as the Russians proposed, to be followed by a per- manent sgency. He asked whether decisions of the Agency would be subject to a vein and asked the Russians to specify at what point in disarmament the agency would begin to operate.

Nevertheless the Soviet Union appears to have moved toward the Anglo - French proposals, Lloyd said. and that is a fact. to be wel- corned.
