U. 5. Proposes Full Sovereignty For Japan

Canada Short On Training Facilities For New Army

OTTAWA, July 10-(CP)-The,

possibility of a. Korean cease- fire points up an army house- keeping problem-Canada hasnlt

got enough room yet to accom- modate all the soldiers she's ac- cumulated under the new ex- pansion program.

There wouldn't be enough bar- racks room in Canada this win- ier. for instance. for both the 25th and the 27th Brigades.

If the 25th comes home from Korea-and the army now is giving preliminary consideration to repatriation while keeping .i sceptical eye on armistice nego-

tiations-the 27th would defin- itely have to go to Europe. Present indications tire that

this headache will be solved by posting the 27th to Germnny this fall whether or not the 25th comes home from Korea. Cab- inet. however. has not yet made that decision.

Even if just one of the bri- gades is home this winter, it still will be a tight squeeze.

Lark of Barracks

The obvious reason is lack of barracks. Barracks are being built but that takes time and for this winter at least space will be tight.

Ilundreds of soldiers. for ex- nmpie, now are living under con- vas at Wainwright. Alta.. the

country's biggest army training area. while carpenters build bar- racks nearby. Similar expansion is going on at Petawawa. Ont. and at numerous other training camps.

Wainwright and Valcartier. near Quebec. have become the big rallying points of the army's expansion. 10 Wainwright go all the men who enlist for the 25th

Brigade as well as those who want to be paratroopers in the airborne home-defence 23rd Bri-

gade. To Valcartier go the in- iantrymen for the 27th.

Meanwhile. army headquarters has started to think about the possibility that the 25th may be coming home from Korea within the next few months.

There is a good deal of mill- iary scepticism about the chari- end to the war. mainly because the Communists have continued to build up their forces.

If, however. peace does come nnd does stick it is expected Canada would try to get her three warships and her brigade home as soon as poossible.

New Fighter Base Being Opeied

OTTAWA, July 10 - (GP) - A new R. C. A.F. fighter base. one of a chain guarding vital targets of Canada and the United States, is being opened at Bagotvllle, Que. about 100 miles north of Quebec. the R. C.A.F. announced today.

Revised Final P Draft Of Treaty is Released

WASHINGTON. July 10 -(AP) -The United States todsy'propos- ed a "peace of reconciliation" re- storms Japan to full sovereignity and giving ii; the right to rearm.

A revised "final" draft circulat- ed among the other major Pacific Allies rules out reparations to be paid from capital assets such as were imposed on Germany after the First World War.

It opens the way nevertheless for the Philippines and other oc- cupied countries to collect partial indemnity in the form of technical and industrial service.

Officials expect most of the ether principal Allies-aside from Russia-to accept the draft with- out major changes.

The Terms

Under its terms. which put no restriction on Japanese political or economic development:

1. Japan is stripped permanent- ly of its pre-Second World War overseas possessions. Included are Formosa, Korea. and the former mandated Pacific Islands which the U. 5. will continue to admin- lstcr under a United Nations Trusteeship.

2. Japan likewise is required to surrender any claim to the Kuriie Islands and the southern part of Sakhalin Island which were hand- ed over to Russia by the Yalta Agreement. In contrast with a previous draft, however. Russia's title to those areas is not recog- nized. Recognition is expected to be withheld unless the Soviets sign the treaty. and Moscow has made plain that Russia has no intention of doing so.

3. Also expressly authorized as a separate Japanese-American pact by which U. S. forces are to be kept indefinitely in Japan. filling a "power vacuum" which other- wise might tempt Communist ag- gression from the Asiatic main- land. The U. 5. also vvlll retain its

big base on Okinawa. in the Ryukus, under the U. N. trustee- ship.

4. There is no provision for

China-either Communist or Nat- ionalist-to sign. However ,Japan is authorized later to make separ- ate treatics with other wartime foes and thus might make a sep- arate settlement with Russla or China. provided they were not granted better terms than the other Allies.

The peace treaty is scheduled to be signed in San Francisco at an international conference sept. 4-8.

Canada Ends State Of War

OTTAWA. July 10 -(GP) - of war with Germany today, near- ly 12 years after the fateful war declaration was proclaimed Sept. 10. 1939.

The war ended as it had begun, with publication of a special pro- clamation in the official Canada Gazette.

The ending of the slate of war. coming more than six years after the last shot was fired. has noth- ing to do with a peace treaty or settlement of war claims. These' claims will be settled i:ii.er when) peace terms are drafted for Ger-. many. ;

The official proclamation noted; that it has "us yet proved imposs-i ibie to conclude a treaty which would dispose of questions relating to the German Relcii and arising out of the state of war” Yet. the proclamation went on. it was de- sirable that the state of war be- terminated. ;

An External Affairs Department; statement issued todav said the; ending of the state of war "simplyy means that kisofar as Canadian, domestic law. both public andi private. is concerned a state of: war no longer exists between Can- ; ads and Germany and German; nationals are no longer considered: to be enemy aliens." ,

It stressed that the Canadian, Government still reserves the, right. to any assets held by the: Custodian of Enemy Property. 1

Gets Off To

t By ALAN HARVEY

LONDON. July 10 - (OP) - A new British prescription for re- armament without tears got off to a shaky start today. Newspn, critics. surprisingly severe. said the proposals Just aren't realistic.

They were commenting on is pamphlet called "Ono Way Only," outlining the views of Aneurin Bevan and two former Labor Gov- ernment stalwarts.

The Bevan group. said to have it fairly-wide following smalls left- wing Labor members. rests its case broadly on the claim that Britain in her present rearmament pro- gram is biting off a bigger chunk than she can chew.

The Times. an indeponde t newsplper. says in its lead editor-4 iel today that the argument. of Bevan and his associates is "no argument at all."

"They rely.” says The Times. "on attaching to rearmalmnt ad- jeetives which merely beg the question 'hyItaricai.' break- neck'. 'strain our economy to the breaking point: and so on. Thu:

rhetorical flourishes servo any to

I3evan Rearmament Plan

Shaky Start

veal the barren emptiness of the

rgument behind them.”

The Liberal Manchester Guard- ian comments:

"The Bevanite pamphlet con- tains some very fine rhetoric but some extremely-muddled thinking. If this is really what Mr. Devon and Mr. Harold Wilson believe. the country is to be congratulated on having lost their services."

(Bevan last fall resigned as Health Minister. Wilson as Presl- dont of the Board of Trade.)

The Yorkshire Post, Conserva- tive. conciudu its lead editorial with the thought that anyone who reads "One Way Only" and then glances back at the title will be thankful that in s democracy it is still possible to have a choice of ways. .

The Devan proposals attrao more than 000 column-inches of comment and conjecture in the tendon and provincial press. only the Oommimist Daily Worker was favorable in its reaction."

A split in the party. I least on the specific issues r by Devon and Wilson, now seems lei likely.

Parliament Bldg.

OPTAWA. July 10-(CPI-A small fire in an inner wall of the Parlia- ment Buildings today was quickly put out with chemlcal-t.-xtiaguish- ers. The fire started in the wall of a men's washroom where a crew of plumbers were removing old pipes and replacing them with copper. Damage was slight.

The senate Chamber is a floor above the spot where the fire started.

when constructed some 30 years ago, after fire destroyed the old buildings in 1916 with a loss of several lives, the Parliament Bulld- ings were considered fire proof.

Officials said today's outbreak indicated the danger even in a supposedly fireproof structure. A blow torch set fire to cork insulat- ion material usually regarded as non-inflammable.
