By STANLEY PBIDDLE

GENEVA (Reuters) A The Big your heads of government were all home. or en route home. Sua- day night. after expressing sat- isfaction with their week-long con- ferenca to lessen international ten- sion.

Last of the leaders to leave Gen- us was sir Anthony Eden. Before (lying to London Sunday evening. um prime minister said the re- suits of the "summit" talks were ':ond” and added: ''If they are. they are in generous measure due to nesident Eisenhower."

Soviet Premier Nikolai Bulga- nln labelled the conference a "new step in the relaxation of tensions liotu-r-en equals." The goeteed marshal. who flew Berlift Sun- tlav fnr a visit in Communist East Germany. said the talks "will have nitlinut doubt a powerful echo in lniernallonll relations."

A similar view was expressed Saturday night by Eisenhower just in-nu-e he flew home to Washing- furl. He declared that the prospects of a lasting peace now are brighter

"summit" meeting has justified the optimism expressed by all four lendgrs. Russian and Western statesman will hammer pswly at the problems at two forthcoming meetings: .

SAIGON. South Viet Nam (AP)- A Canadian member of the armis- tice control commlssiotn estimated some time ago it wouldyteko at least five divisions of neutral troops to guarantee a free election in Viet Nam. '

That many soldiers. he said, would be required to police the Dollln! places alone.

General elections to reunite the two halves of Viet Nam are pre- scribed by the Geneva armistice agreement. But on July 16 the South's premier, Ngo Dlnh Diem, declared that as long as the North is dominated by C unism and resorts to terrorism and totalitar- ian methods. he will not even talk with them about elections.

At Geiievs. Britain. the United States and France agreed to urge Diem to change his mind and ar- range the tslks promptly.

PEACE AGAIN MENACED

The Communist Vletminh foreign minister, Pham Van Dong. dis- patched a message to Diem last

Wednesday inviting bin: to name the data and select a city on Viet- namese territory for an election oonfsrsncs. Diem has yet to re- ceived ths note but his answer. if he makes one. will be no.

Thus a year after nine countries meeting at Geneva ended the Indo- china war the uneasy peace again is nuanced.

"The South can do as she pleases." said another Canadian. iishe did not sign the accords. But is she prepared to face up the consequences? The Vlatmlnh may decide to settle the question by war."

There is a single ray of hope nourishing. Diem said he did not oppose the election principle as long as there were guarantees it would be free. Later official da- clsrations have indicated. too. that his government wants the United Nations and not the Indian-Polish- Canadian armistice commission to supervise the voting.

Can these two conditions be ful- filled? Many bservers here doubt it. A free elec ion would mean a

Cloud Seeding Helps

Forest Fire Fighters

MONTREAL (CP)- Cloud-seed- ing operations helped nature to bring a splash of rain to fire- ravaged Quebec forests. it was reported here Saturday.

Paul Denison. president of the weather Engineering Corporation of Canada. said the cloud-seeding operations had "spectacular" suc- cess Friday night in the Bale Co- mean district. on the St. Law- rence river north shore 300 miles northeast of Quebec.

He said rain-makers in the area took advantage of an ap- proaching cold front io seed the clouds and accentuate rainfall.

A survey showed that as much as La lnces of rain fell in the "target" district. compared to as low as .1) inches in neighboring districts. Mr. Denlson said.

The rain was the first "signi- ficant fall" in 2V: months in the district where forest fires have raged for weeks.

Canso Causeway Bridge Pivol ls Replaced

PORT HASTINGS. NS. (Cl?)- Traffic resumed across the 308- foot swing bridge of the Canso causeway Sunday following the in- stallation of a bridge pivot replac- ing the one cracked two months ago when a CNN train made a test run.

The first pivot. which swings the

Evacuation Only Defence

OTTAWA iwl-Health Minister Martin says the only sure defence against themionucle attack is evacuation.

He told the Commons Saturday night that. even though the task appears impossible. plans are going ahead for evacuation of Canadian cities in event of attack by enemy planes carrying hydro- gen bombs.

Mr. Martin. minister of charge of federal civil defence administra- tion, said he does not say that it now is possible to evacuate all

cities. Neither could the United States. the United Kingdom or other countries.

"But it does not help us to have some people say that evacuation is an impossibility." he said. "It may be impossible in certain areas --I will not say what areas-but surely it is not impossible in a country like Canada with our open spaces and our relatively small number of large communities."

Biggest Piece So Far Of Treasure Ship

TOBERMORY, Reuters-Treasure fever soared h this Scottish fishing village Sunday after salvage experts announced they believed they had at last discovered the sea grave of a Spanish Armada galleon which sank here nearly 400 years ago laden with doubloons and a king's crown. . Tourists. eager to be present when the treasure ship is raised from the silt and water which have defied treas- ure hunters for four centuries. have moved into all the available hotel space in this peaceful little island of Mull off Scotland's west coast.

NO OIJICTIOK

Mr. Pearson said he govern-

ment has no objection to visits of Canadian parliamentarians to Rus- sia. He said a so-called Russian invitation to Canadian parliamen- tarians now is in the hands of C ' T Rena Beau- doin, in consultation with party whips in the Commons. and if a visit to Russia could be arrang- ed ths government would place no obstacle to it. As for visits to Canada by Rus- sian parliamentarians. Mr. Pear- son sald they should not be spon- sored by private groups, but by either the government or Par- liament or both.

He suggested that visits by Russians to Canada might be the best way to start any exchange. such visits by Russian parlia- mentarians would show them how democracy works in Canada and might have a very helpful effect on both sides.
