OTTAWA (Cpl—Prime Minis- ter Diefenbaker may search be- yond Canadian shores for the man to become the, next governor- general. ‘
1 Federal sources say that is not to rule out the possibility that. the next representative of the Queen In Canada may be a Canadian.
But Mr. Diefenbaker would like to see closer ties among the Com- monwealth family. In fact in his forthcoming sevenaweek Common- wealth tour, he may keep his eye peeled for prospects, men of sta- ture and eminence who might alp< peal to Canadians generally.
For years, ever since Confed- eration, the Canadian governor- general was picked from among Britain's prominent men.
But former Liberal prime min- tster Louis St. Laurent decided in 1952 that the governor - general should be a Canadian in keeping with Canada’s growth to nation- hood. '

Ca nada’s First Atomic Explosion May Seek Oil
OTTAWA (CPI—The first ther- monuclear explosion in Canada may be set off within two years under the fabulous oil sands in
northern Alberta.
The federal mines department has been interested in the idea by an American oil company that holds development rights on about 2 acres in the Bone Lake- Fort cMurray area about 250 miles northeast of Edmonton.
A well informed source told The Canadian‘Press Tuesday the nu- clear device for the blast Would be arranged for from the United States government through the Los Angeles héad office of the Richfield Oil Corporation. ’
The source said that if all the details can be worked out accord- ing to plan, the hope is that the experimental explosion could be set off Within about two years.
NEW YORK (0P)-—Field Mar- shal Viscount Montgomery in the first instalment of his memoirs published Tuesday in Life maga- ine sa 5 the first thing he did in assuI’ning command of ‘the 8th Army was to cancel prevxous or- ders for withdrawal. _

The source described as con- servativefian estimate that the, Athabaska oil sands contain up to barrels of oil.
The source said the Richfield plan'is to plant a nuclear device under the sands-awhich are some 300 feet deep in places. The idea\ is that when the device was set off, the terrific heat and pressure created by the blast would sep- arate. the oil from the sands, pos- sibly by melting both sand and oil into one liquid or by dissolv- ing the sand entirely.
If the plan worked, the oil would collect afterwards in the underground crater created by the‘explosion. It could then be pumped out through pipes just like oil from a well.
The company wouldpay for the experiment, asking only govern;- ment approval and technical as

Fear Patients Political Pull
KELOWNA, B. C., —— (CPI -- A warning that doctors and sur- geons must be on their guard against patients who may use political pressures to gain ad- mission or longer stays in gov- ernment health service ‘hos- pitals. was made Tuesday by Dr. Arthur F. VanWart of Fred- ericton, president of the Cana- dian Medical Association. ’
Dr. VanWart addressed 200 physicians here on the opening day cf the four-day convention of the BC division of the CMA.
His speech was released to the press in advance of delivery.
“It is advisable that doctors in the local hospitals ,now begin to study the admission and dis- charge problem in the light of their government hospital ser- vice plan," he said.
“Citizens will make political pressure for admission and long- er stays in Hospital — —a new pressure we must be cognizant of in our thinking."
Dr. Van-Wart said medical men mustycontinue to control the admission and discharge of patients.

.CPR Expects ' I RevenueDrOp
OTTAWA (CPl—The Canadian Pacific Railway said Tuesday it expects a $19,200,000 drop in 1958 revenue from last year‘s intake.
It was-arguing before the Board of Transport Commissioners for a 19 - per cent freight rate in- crease that could yield t-he CPR and the government-owned CNR together some $60,000.000 a year.
They want this amountto pay the‘ cost of wage increases amounting to about 14 cents-an- hour, mainly for 130,000 non-oper- ating employees. ,
Board hearings began Monday. Tuesday ‘0‘ D. Edsforth, CPR general traffic manager esti- mated total 1958 revenue at $468,- 400,000, “a decrease of about $19,- 200,000 or 3.9 per cent as com- pared with the total railway rev- enues for 1957.”
He said actual revenue'to the end of June was $196,800,000, a decrease of $6,100,000 from the first six , .onths of 1957. However, the over—all results for the six- month period this year “do not indicate . . . the actual trendof traffic volume during that period.

TORONTO—Dr.
By ALAN DONNELLY Canadian Press Staff Writer OTTAWA {CPI—A two-day fed- eral-municipal conference. first of its kind ever held, ended Tues- day with congratulations ex- changed by both ides for a “use- ful discussion" but with no deci- sions on concrete action. However, Justice Minister Ful- ton, conference chairman, indi- cated to reporters that the 25 del- egates from the Canadian Feder- ation of Mayors and Municipali- ties have stirred the govern- ment‘s interest with two propo- sals. -
One is for a federal “incentive” to municipalities to undertake jobacreating building projects in the winter, with federal funds to lift part or all of the extra burden of wintertime construction.
The other, put forward Monday, was for, fresh financial help from the central government towards slum clearance and “big pipe" sewer and water mains for new housing developments. VALUABLE SUGGESTIONS
Mr. Fulton called them “very valuable suggestions" and said the government has promised to study those and other municipal proposals. '
Questioned about the absence of agreement on any specific action, Mr. Fulton said the conference was “not designed to go away with a list of decisions.” The gov— ernment had received, a better, clearer understanding of munici- pal problems.

One federation source pht it this way: "We expect things to hap- pen.” '
The conference did produce one agreement-that federation offi— cials would be called in for talks with federal officials on three spe- cific points: the slum-clearance and hoiising proposal; a munici- pal request for complete exemp- tion from the 10-per-cent sales tax on all their purchases, and a re- quest for payment of grants equalling full municipal real es- tate taxes on Crown corporation‘s. There was disagreement on how much the sales tax' exemption would cost the federal treasury. Two other sweeping municipal proposals were put forward Tues~ day.
The federation asked for a multi-million-diollar loan fund, fi- nanced by federal and provincial governments, out of which cities and towns could borrow long-term money at low interest to. finance expansion.
It also asked, in effect, that the national hospital insurance plan be broadened to cover the cost of building hospitals.
