MAY BE PROPAGANDA

For some time there have been indications that Iron Curtain coun- tries have opened a campaign to get former residents now living in Canada to return overseas.

Mr. Pearson has stated that the government cannot do much to halt any "back-home" propaganda campaign since there is no cen- sorship of the malls. in Canada. The best answer new Canadians could make would be a public pro- test.

But any attempt at intimidation or indications of improper con- duct by officials of a foreign gov- ernment should be brought to the attention of Canadian authorities. he told a parliamentary commit- tea last June.

MONTREAL (CPl - A promi- nent Quebec laywer said Thursday he has paid money from his own pocket to defend perboas accused of murder.

An exchange occurred between Mr. Corrlveau "and Paul Miquelon. wall - known Quebec prosecutor. during the debate.

Mr. Corrivsau said he spent 01,100 from his own pocket during the dcfuice of Georges Hebert. accused of the slaying of his four children. Hebert now is a life term after his execu sen; tence was commuted to life im- prisonment. He had also used his lawn funds: the defence of a

The conlensus at quarters here and at supreme headquarters. Allied powers in Europe. Just outside the city, is that non-military cooperation is in better shape than military co- ordination.

Some rniiltary leaders berg- and this includes some Canadians -go so far as to say that rot has set in the military field and that it must be halted or NATO may be so weakened as to become. in effect, inoperative.

GROUND FORCES ESSENTIAL

They add that if NATO forces oontlnueto be withdrawn from Europe. the point will eventually he reached where this ” will be practically denuded of mil- itary forces and the Communists will be able to take over through subversion.

Senior Canadian armed forces officers say they believe it is es- sential that ground forces be main tained in Europe to help prevent Communist subversion even though the West's main strategy through American and British bomber fleets.

France has pulled most of her NATO forces out of Europe to fight in Algeria. Belgium has with- drawn soldiers from West Germ- any. Britain is withdrawing some of hers for duty in the Middle East.

Hope For Peace

CAIRO (AP)-The Menzies mis- aion for peaceful settlement of the Suez Canal dispute has failed, a source close to the Egyptian'gov-

lernment said Thursday night. The

source contended that the only hope for prevention of British- French use of force now is United States intervention.

The source said the five-power delegation Thursday had reported back to British Foreign Minister Selwyn Lloyd that they had failed to reach agreement with Presi- dent Nasser. He said the two view-

lpoints had ”run in paralllel chan-

nels with no possibility of being

-' reconciled."

The source pessimisticallly noted that the mission, headed by Aus- tralian Prime Minister Robert G. Menzies, lacked sufficient power

Ito compromise beyond the terms of the compromise p r op osal framed by US. State Secretary Dulles.

N0 COMPROMISE

When it was suggested the mis- ,sion might seek broader powers to negotiate, the source noted that it was reporting to Lloyd as chair- man of the 22-nation London con- fercnce which no longer is in ses- Iion.

Would Lloyd be willing to com- promise: "Of course not." the ,source said. .
