motion, introduced April 28 by Op- position leader George Drew asked for a. royal commission to make recommendations for: i

1. Reducing public expendit- ure to tho lowest point consist- ent with efficiency.

2. Eliminating duplication of over-lapping services.

3. Consolidating all public services and departmental ac- tivities of a similar nature.

4. Improving the general ef- flclcncy of government and as- suring civil servants full rec-' oimition of their responsibilit- ies.

Finance Minister Abbott. speak- ing for the Government. said the motion could not be accepted be- cause it constituted a motion of non-confidence in the adminis- tration and proposed abrogation of the rights of Parliament to a royal commission.

In the vote on Mr. Drew's mo- tion, Liberal. C.C.F. and social Credit mmibers voted against it

The Social Credit amendment, introduced by victor Quelch (so - Acadia) won support from the C.C.F. and Progressive Conserv- ative Parties. .

Ch'iown Comiiany Tax Appeal Case

MONTREAL. May 30 - (CP) - The Income Tax Appeal Board has been asked to rule whether a stock dividend should be valued for tax purpose according to the par value of the stock received as income or according to its value ns listed on the stock exchange on the day the capital stock went ex-dividend.

The point arose today in the ap- peal of the Dauntless Company Limited of Charlottetown, repre- sented by A. ian Fleming. Mont- real accountant. The Department of National Revenue was represcntcti by Raymond Decarie. who said he had not been able to find a pre- cedent in the British Common- wealth.

'"'You may have one in about lo days." said Fabio Monet. K.C. sitting with W.S. Fisher of Ottawa as the Board. "We have already heard a similar case and will Prob- ably render Judgment before wr- decide your case."

It is understood a numbe of parties are awaiting a decision on the point. In today's case the tar payer returned in accordance with the par value of the stock dividend shares while the department arg- ued that market value be taken.

Free Gen-nan Youihs Beg for Truce

HlE.'l...ViSTl!1I7r, Germany, 31 (Wednesday) Milling thousands of red-hating residents of Helmatedt fought pro-Commun- lsl German youths in the streets last night.

The anti-Reds were victorious. Their Opponents-members of the Communist-controlled Free Ger- man Youth (F. D. J.)--begged for a truce after their blue shirts were ripped from their backs and heap. ed on bonfires along with their blue flags.

It was the first disorder stem- ming from last Sunday's show of strength by the Communists in Eastern Berlin.

The trouble began when about 2.000 F. D. J. members from West. ern Germany found themselves

temporarily marconed here due to lack of transportation on their homewarcl trek from the Berlin rally. , With the slogans of their Oom- munist leaders still ringing in their ears. the F. D. J. youths con- fidently marched from the rail- wny station to restaurants loudly singing the "Internationale."

Slnllnt. Then Fists

Townapeople, out in droves witness the influx of the publicized blueshlrts, responded with ”Deutsch1and Uber Allea.” the former German anthem. The singing changed to jeering-then to fist-fighting.

Battered and beaten, the out- nxumbered F. D. J. members pro- mised to leave their blue shirts behind-or as many of them as they still.p::ssessed-and get out of town promptly if their oppon- ents would guarantee their safety. No severe injuries were reported.

For n time Helmstedters block- ed off streets around the main body of F. D. J. youths in a park near the railway station. A small group of about 40 or so were hem- med in a restaurant.

Police escorted the group from the restaurant, and the towns- people began to drift away from the park. Then a number of spec- lai buses began arriving without notice. There was no interference as the biueshirts swarmed aboard-

The buses took off for various West German cities. Police said they did not know who sent them. Regiilnr trains also helped carry away F. D. J. members. Police estimated that by early today the number of blueshiris had been re- duced to fewer than 1.000.

Hclnistcdnt. situated at'ihe bord- er of the British and Russian zon- es. remained tense, however. An unknown number of other west- zone blue shirts is expected to arrive here today and tomorrow. No one knows how the new ar-

rivals will take the news of the beating of ihe'r comrades. The Communist leaders in Her-

lin had withdrawn their weary youth army from the city with promises that they would meet the next time in Bonn. capital of Western Germany.

But the West had put in the first victory claims earlier, point- ing out yesterday that the long- parading. shouting. sight-seeing. heralded youth rally-featured by parading, shouting, sight-seeing. listening to continuous pr0fl0ZBll- da. and living in tents-had failad to make good its claims of "storm- ing all Berlin.”

Belntedly, Communist leaders declared that the six-day program of ideological indoctrination had proved is "psychological trlumph' that would make itself felt decis- ively in the future of all Germany.

Provinces Make New Freight Rates

Appeal

3.4 per cent awarded by the Trans- port Board last Thursday.

The 16 per cent already is in ef- fect. The railways are it to put the smaller one-Iworth ui. 012.000.1100 s year to them-in op- eration by June 10.

An appeal against the is per

While the completion of the case before the noara was to speed Cabinet action. there was no immediate indiealon on when it would hear argument from the contending provinces and railways.

Annual Meeting PEI Fur Breeders” Ass'n

The annual meeting of the Prince Edward Island Fur Breed- ers' Association was held yester- day afternoon at Birch Court, Experimental Farm. There was a good attendance of fox and mink ranchers.

In the absence of the President. Andrcd Jardine of Freetown. Gor- don MacMillan, vice-president, of Cornwall. presided and Stewart Wright acted as secretary in the absence of Walter R. Shaw.

The annual report showed the Association's activities throughout the year. and particularly the holding of the live fox and mink show at Charlottetown last No- vember, to have been quite suc- cessful. Some 324 foxes and 123 mink were exhibited and the qual- iiy of both classes of fur bearing animals was considered good by the judges. George A. Callbeck for faxes and George H. Mayers of New York for the mink.

The financial report showed that expenditure of 33.272 had been made in staging the shows and taking care of other expenses. The receipts were somewhat less, the deficit being made up from re- serve aceount. Both the above reports were adopted unanimous- ly. '

EForest Fire Said Threat To Sheet Harbor; 1,000

HALIFAX. May 30 - (CPI , A monster forest fire was charging lihrougla cut-over spruce land to- E ward the sea in the eastern part i of Halifax County tonight.

There was no immediate danger to settlements. but forest offic:als said only rain could stop the blaze. Flames-which already have con- sumed one dwelling and several barns and logging camps - swung away from the threatened villages of Dean and Pleasant Valley to- day.

The fire started yesterday near Upper Musquodobolt. Since then, air patrols report. it has travelled l2 miles east and 10 miles south. Thousands of acres of spruce tim- ber have been laid waste.

Forest officials said "if we don't get rain for two days the fire will reach the main settlement of Sheet Harbor." about 60 miles from here on the eastern shore.

More than L000 men fought a relentless battle on the ground and aircraft droned overhead but the flames drove on. The main fire spawned some 25 other minor out- breaks. With a dense pail of smoke hanging overhead it was difficult for the flyers to see ex- actly what was happening in places.

HALIFAX. May 30 - (CF) - Card games and dancing were de- leted from the church law prohib- iting gambling as a means of rats- ing money at the 76th Diocesan Synod of the Anglican Church here today.

Rev. F. W. Fry of Woifville, pre- sented the motion to delete the words "card games and dancing" from the canon prohibiting lot- teries. raffles and games of chance being used to raise funds for church purposes.

Card games and dancing. he said. were not in the same class as lot- teries and raffles. If the words were left in the canon it might lead people to believe the church frown- ed upon them.

Rev. Canon E. M. Malone of Charlouctown moved an amend- ment to the motion, stressing the importance of direct giving to the church.

Today”.-z action will have to be ratifiv.-l at the 1051 synod. p

Most Rev. George F1'CdOi'i0'.i Kingston. Archbishop of Nova sco- tia and Primate of All Canada de- plored ”the secularization of un- day” in his charge.

The record of Canadian people for church attendance compared favorably with other countries, he said.

"The danger signal. however. is up. even here in the Maritime Prov- inccs and we request all our peo-

The Primate spoke also of a "de- vcloping tendency' of moving away from the mother country.

"We think it not unfitiing that the Church of England in this old- . should sound a note of alarm concemlng a developing tendency. and furthermore urge that everything possible be done in our country to make stronger than ever the already strong links with the mother land."

"World conditions are such to- day that a call to prayer should sound in every congregation . . . .

"Let us make no apology for prayer the emphasis needs to be given at every point in the work of the church that people may turn to God. that nations may turn to God. that even any potential enemy may turn to God."
