debate on the financial terms of Confederation.

+ The premier, back in his front- row seat after a Jamaica: vaca- tion and business trips to New York and London, said he under- stood Mr. Diefenbaker made a television address in which he pledged a review of Newfound- land's financial status in 1962.

Mr. Diefenbaker made @ speech “‘of a conciliatory nature” and ‘“‘appeared anxious to restore relations with this province,” Premier Smallwood said. He added that he was sure members would say nothing that did not “show our appreciation’ for the prime minister's statement.

It was originally expected that Mr. Smallwood himself would lead the attack on the decision to commit Ottawa to special as- sistance for Newfoundland only until 1962.

COMMISSION’S PLAN

The $8,000,000 a year in new money, retroactive to 1957, was recommended by a royal com- mission set up under Term 29 of the 1949 terms of union. It was to review Newfoundland’s finan- cial position and recommend as- sistance adequate to keep public services at the 1957 level. The commission set no time limit on the assistance but Prime Minis- ter Diefenbaker said the situation

might be thinking about fighting.

He labelled Gen. Douglas Mac- Arthur far and away the best. military leader that U.S. pro- duced in the Second World War.

He renewed his charge, made last year in his memoirs, that Eisenhower did not understand the Normandy battle plan.

Montgomery said the Soviet Union hasn't the slightest inten- tion of attacking the West and that the West hasn't the slightest intention of attacking the East.

He suggesed that an all-out nuclear war is unlikely. He de- clared that any nation that goes in for nuclear weapons at the ex- pense of conventional weapons is playing into the hands of the eastern bloc because minor struggles are going to be the thing in the next 10 years.

Montgomery called for a thin- ning out process by mutual agreement between East and West in Europe. This would in- volve, as he pictured it, a with- drawal of American and British forces from West Germany and of Russian forces from East Ger- many.

He indicated that he considers a major reorganization of NATO is necessary.

Montgomery also said that in 20 years time things may become

Premier Smallwood ordered Newfoundland into mourning after Prime Minister Diefen- baker's announcement. He said the prime minister “‘betrayed” the province.

There has been speculation that his trip to London may have been connected with the dispute. The Confederation agreement be- tween Canada and Newfoundland was ratified by the British Com- mons.

Efforts Tuesday by Progressive Conservative Opposition Leader Malcolm Hollett to find out what Mr. Smallwood did in New York and London were unsuccessful. NOT IN PUBLIC INTEREST

He declined to say with whom he met and added that he did not consider it_in the public in- terest to disclose “the nature of the discussions at this time.”

The only comment he would make was that he was ‘‘feeling better than I have for some time.”

The legislature resumed sit- tings Monday after a five-week recess. Still to be dealt with is the provincial budget, delayed pending an announcement from Ottawa about additional financial help.

He called for a summit confer- ence and said a foreign ministers conference is unnecessary and unlikely to contribute anything to the success of a summit confer- ence. He said it would not be a bad idea to hold a summit con- ference every six months.

Canuck Taste Is Developing

LONDON (CP)—A former Are- tie fur trader says a distinctive Canadian taste is developing.

“To meet it is 4 challenge for British industry,”” Lord Tweeds- muir said Tuesday in an address to a luncheon meeting in honor

will mission sponsored by the Winnipeg Chamber of Commerce.

“It's differem from our taste in Britain and different from tastes in the United States,’ said the son of one of Canada’s gov- ernor-general.

Lord Tweedsmuir lived in Win- nipeg for roughly six months in 1938 before he was posted to a trading post at Cape Dorset, Baf- fin Land, by the Hudson's Bay

Company.

He told the gathering of about 300 there are plenty of opportu- nities for British exporters to sell

without harming Canadian man- ufacturers. *

He suggested Britain should make a greater effort'to get a bigger share of the Canadian market now being supplied by United States exporters. ;

emphas? that none of these three pi Sposals were meant as an alternative to a causeway and “in no way indicates a lessening of interest in the causeway pro- ject.””

The members made it clear that the proposals are consider- ed “purely an interim solution to the Island's transportation problem.”

The statement is based on a series of discussions the mem- bers had with Transport Min- ister George Hees over the past several months.

DONE IN WINTER

The remodelling of the Scotia ll, if this course of action were taken, would be done next winter in order to convert her into a proper automobile ferry, in addi- tion to her present railway car capacity.

Changes in shell and hull for this purpose, including constru- ction of a new upper automobile deck could be done in time for the 1960 season at a cost of $1,- 500,000.

The changes would enable the Scotia to carry 80 cars, which the statement says “‘should cover growth of traffic for several years to come.”

“The alternative,”” the state- ment adds, “would be to proceed at once with the preparation of plans for the construction of a completely new ferry, designed primarily, if not solely, for auto- mobiles and trucks. This would cost probably twice as much as the reconstruction of the Scotia II and would take longer.

“It could not be available un til the 1961 season at the earliest. Possibly this ship could be used as a standby vessel for use in other ferry operations elsewhere subsequently.”
