New Ambassador To , Japan Will Attempt To Clarify Status Of Troops

(By Douglas How) OTTAWA, Oct. nda's first ambassador in Tokyo will make a new attempt to break a deadlock between Japan and the Commonwealth countries that has dragged on for months.

Hon. Robert Mayhew, 72-year- old former cabinet minister who goes to Tokyo next month, is ex- pected informally to make the latest attempt to find agreement in the argument concerning the legal status of 5.000 Common- wealth troops, including about 2,- 100 Canadians, in Japan.

Big Issue In Japan

In Canada. this situation stirs nsrdly a ripple but in Japan it is s big issue. Both sides are stick- ing to their stands on the piv- otal point of a complex issue- crimlnal jurisdiction or who has the right to try Commonwealth troops for various crimes.

Given agreement on that point, it is felt here. the dilemma would

evaporate. Meanwhile, Cantdian, British. Australian and New Zealand

troops are in Japan-on leave. as reinforcements. ,ln hospitals, at- tached to administrative units, all in connection 'with the Korean var. sThe Japanese have acquiesced in their being there. But no legal foundation governing their rights has been laid since Japan return- ed to independence six months ago. While the endless diplomatic wrangling continues, both sides conduct day-to-day relations on the basis of common sense. With one exception. Japanese authorities have left Common- wealth soldier crimes to Common- wealth military, courts. Thslaxcsn. tion is thccaso of two. 31-itish sailors imprisoned by the Japan-' oso for assault and robbery. a that snowbelled into

local c an international issue.

hin a nutshell. the argument is s:

1. The Japanese say the Com- monwealth should accept in Japan the terms proposed for use among Atlantic Pact planners-that for- eign troops are tried for military offences by their own military courts but may be tried for civil- ian offenccs by the country in which they are serving. (Gener- ally, host countries don't exercise this privilege but it is there.) 2. The Commonwealth countries say they want the same privileges as those given United States troops who now are immune from Japanese courts and will be until the U. S. Senate ratified the At- lantic Pact agreement on mutual treatment of foreign tgoops. Once the U. S. accepts this lesser im- munity. say the Commonwealth countries, so will they.

Although no agreement appeared possible on the question of having only one lobster fishing season in this Province, there was a definite uniformity of thought that the De- partment of Fisheries should leave the present seasons alone. Large- scaie discussion on the matter was held yesterday afternoon in the Court House w e the Fisheries Development. Co mittee held an open meetinng on the subject of lobster regulations.

Mr. Eugene Gormsn. Provincial Director of Fisheries and member of the committee, presided hi the absence of Chief Justice Thane A. Campbell. chairman. who is ill,

The difference of opinion among the approximately 100 fishermen wiio attended came because there appears to be a real differenc in th presence of lobsters on the North and South shores during the spring season on the one side and the fall season on the other. One speaker from Mont Carmel definitely on- posed a. spring season for the fish- crmen in the Northumberland strait. He said there were no lob- sters at all there in the early part of the year as they only arrived in August. He cited instances of fish- ermen putting out traps in the spring and not even seeing one lob- ster in s. week of fishing.

On the other hand spokesmen for the fishermen in the Tlgnish and Ruetico areas were strongly in favor of the fall season. several speakers flavored 9. longer season than is now permitted with one man stet- ing that "in one r..onth and 2. d ys no one can support a family or twelve months".

However. there was disagreement even among Boubh sh re fishermen with one man stating that fishing in the St. Peter's Island section the

NEW YORK, Oct. 21--(AP)-w Four of the five pivotal mlddic Atlantic states-Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland and Dcinware- are regarded by editors and poli- tical writers as edging a bit more towards the Republican Party than they were six weeks ago.

In the fifth-New York, with 43 electoral voles-the consensus of newspaper men participating in an Associated Press survey is that the race hasitlghtcncd since Lob- or Day. Their combined opinion is that Democratic presidential nominee Adlai Stevenson has closed some of the gap but ilifli Republican Dwight D. Eisenhower still has a fairly comfortable mar- gin.

Bunched together in the five states are 105 electoral votes and a rich political prize-two-fifths of the 266 votes required to win the presidential election Nov. 4. In the U. S. political system. each state has a number of elec- toral voies equal to the total of congressmen it sends to Washing- ton. The candidate winning the popuisr vote in any state-even by the smallest margin-wins all of that state's electoral votes. The combined view of news- paper men taking part in this second survey--the first was made some six weeks ago--is that all those lit votes still would line up for Gen. Eisenhower if the elec- tion were held today. New York. Pennsylvania and New Jersey are considered fairly sure to vote no- in llcan. as they see it. Maryland an Delaware are listed nearer

Gromykdfalls U. S. Opposition "Cowardly"

By Norman Altstedter UNITED NATIONS, N. Y., Oct, 21 -(CP).- Russian demands that the Chinese Communists and North Koreans be invited to the United Nations Assembly for dis- cusslon of Communist germ-war

charges were turned down twice today. Russian delegate Andrei Gro-

myko said it was "cowardly" for ihe United states to oppose the invitation. But Selwyn Lloyd,' Brit- ain's Minister of State, said the Chinese and North Koreans could not help in any assembly discus- sion of setting up an impartial in- vestlgation group.

, The assembly vote against the Russian invitation proposal was 46 to 5 (Soviet bloc) with seven ab- sf.eniions.. Those abstaining were Argentina, Burma. Egypt, India, Indonesia, Iran and Yemen.

The assembly then voted 53 lo 5 (Soviet bloc) with two countries absent to accept for discussion the U. S. porposai that the assembly set up a commission to investigate the Communist charges that the U. S. has used germ warfare in Kor- ea.

Russia has previously vetoed s U. S. proposal for lnvesilgation of the germ-war charges but that was in the Security Council. There is no veto in the assembly.

Meanwhile, the U. S. delegation

was putting finishing touches on in resolution which would ask the assembly to approve U. S. conduct of the Korean iruce talks and ap- peal to the Communists to accept a crease-fire on the basis of the latest U. N. proposals. Diplomatic sources said it is still undecided whether Britain France. Canada and other count- ries wiih troops in Korea will act as co-sponsors for the resolution because of the possible impact of the U. S.'elecl.ion Nov, 4.

The resolution will. come before the political committee which holds its first meeting tomorrow. with a fight looming on whether Korea will be the first item to be

LONDON, Oct. 21-(llcuiers)- Colonial Secretary Oliver Lyttei- ion. announcing today in Parlia- ment ihat he will fly to Kenya next week, faced a barrage of questions from members who wanted to know more about the fanatic Mau liiau anti-while so- ciety there.

Lyttieton said he will travel to the East Africa colony "to see for myself what is happening." He said he would plan long-range pol- icy to deal with the Mau Mau whose arson and murder tactics are aimed at driving the white minority from Kenya.

Lyttleton's proposed visit recali- ed his fact-finding tour of Malaya in December 1950. A month after his return from the guerrilla-torn peninsula. tdugh Gen. Sir Gerald Tempier was appointed high com- missioner and commander of mili- tary forces there. His harsh but efficient policy seems to have swung the long-running fight in favor of the British and Malayan forces against the Communist ter- rorlsts.

Situation In Brief

During the question period fol- lowing his announcement, the Col- onial Secrelary made these points:

1.' The "get tough” drive in Kenya is not aimed at the bulk of the African people, who have had nothing to do with Mau Mau and have remained loyal.

2. The Kenya African Union is not proscribed, although President Jomo (Burning Spear) Kenyata and other officers have been
