Britain May1lommieis Into Korean Conflict

Military Men Against Sending Brigade To Korea

UITAWA. July 1'7-(OP)-Milk tary opinion appeared tonight to be firmly against committing Canada's airborne infantry brigade in Korean action. Some informed quarters expressed doubt that the Cabinet. under' present circum- stances, will want to send any ground troops at all.

The government's top military advisers met today and will meet again tomorrow to consider pro- posals to place before Cabinet Wednesday as a result of the call for more aid for Korea.

Official circles said a series of alternative proposals are under consideration but these factors appeared to be shaping up:

l. It now appears unlikely that the Cabinet will consider sending the one regular army formation available, the three-battalion, air- borne brigade that constitutes the country's main ground. bulwark against attack.

2. People in key positions ex- pressed doubt that Cabinet will agree to send any ground troops at all. But the army has come up with a suggestion that it recruit a new brigade to be trained for some months and dispatched to

Sialln Replies To Nehru's Message

LONDON, July 18 - (Tuesday) -(AP) - Prime Minister Stalin has described the seating of Com- munist China on the United Na- tions security council as neces- sary for any settlement of the Korean conflict.

The Moscow radio today broad- cast Stalin's reply to a. message by Indian Prime Minister Jann- harlal Nehru on means of ending the fighting in Korea.

Stalin declared that the ques- tion should be taken up by the United Nations Security Council. with the "obligatory participation" of the Big Five. He also called for-the Security Council farhear "represuaatativu of' the Korean

Stalin's price for for eastern peace was in line with proposals made by Nehru. His price is al- most certain to be rejected by the United states and U.N., which have insist 1 that the North Korean forces must end their in- vasion of South Korea and re- turn to their own territory of the 38th parallel.

Will Suppkmenl Naval Forces . Now In Action

LONDON. July l7 - (AP) - 1 qualified informant hinted today that -British troops will be sent, to the side of bardl-pressed United States forces in Korea.

”Moro than. just a token force is needed from us and other United

Nations members in the long campaign that seems to lie ahead We are committed to help-

lns. This country does not shl.rk its commitments."

At the same time the five Brus- sels pact powers-Britain. France, the Netherlands, . Belgium and I-l1X9mb0Ll1'z-unexpectedly called a meeting in Paris of their defence ministers for Thursday.

Diplomatic sources said the five defence ministers probably will consider jointly the request of U. N. Secretary-General Trygve Lie for military aid, especially ground forces.

Their task will be to see how much the five countries can send to Korea in view of the need of defences in Europe.

The hint of possible British land aid in Korea was given after the cabinet met in a special session and discussed the Asian situation with Robert Menzies, Australian Prime .Minister; Field Marshal Sir Wil. liam Slim, Chief of the Imperial General Staff; and Admi.ral of the Fleet Lord Fraser, First Sea Lord.

Exploringv Possibilities In Fish Marketing Along Latest Scientific Lines

OTTAWA, July 1'1-(Specisli- For upwards of a generation. the Federal Fisheries Department has urged greater per capita consump- tion of ash. In. the past. efforts to promote the industry have been chiefly through ministerial speech- es and a few booklets, pamphlets and recipes. These have been found inadequate to meet the sit- uatlon. Canada's per capiioa fish consumption still stands among the lowest of any euuntry in the world.

This summer will see a changed picture and vigorous action to de- velop and expand the domestic fish market. And Fisheries Minis- ter Mayhew has been at his desk for the past month rounding out the master plan for Canada's fish-

ing industry. Both the Minister and his lop aids in the Department feel

they've scored a bullseye in ob- taining the services of Loran E. Baker, ex-M.P., ex-Parliamentary assistant and ex-fisherman and businessman for the job of Can- ada's No. 1 fish salesman. Inde- pendently wealthy, experienced in the fishing industry and in polic- ies of government, and a worker from the ground up, Mr. Baker is taking iihe post of director of marketing and consumption in the Fisheries Department in the desire to do something to aid his fellow- Jdaritimers. He thinks he can suc- eeed.

Not only will the former M. P. for Yarmouth-Sihelburne-Clare be

given unusual powers in his new job but will have full cabinet sup- port as to policy. And pressure will be applied to some of the largest business firms in the coun- try 90 give him all the aid at their disposal.

The master plan for the fishing industry as outlined to The Guar- dian here today calls for the es- tablishment of depots at strategic spots on Canada's Atlantic sea- board where fresh-caught fish will be fast-frozen until it is as hard as an oak plank. From these points it will be either flown or shipped by train in super-cooled refriger- afar cars to the markets of Cent- ral Canada.

It has been revealed in a recent departmental survey that deep- freczc cold-storage plants in To- ronto, Montreal and other smaller inland cities have low than the required storage space for expect- ed additional, fish shipments. To provide this space. it is understood that the Government is "persuad- mg” Canada Packers, Swift Can- adian.Burns and other large pack- 'ing firms to expand their storage space for accommodation of Mari- time fish.

For Scout Leadership

Scouting. with its army of Can- adian youth over 100,000: strong and its smaller army of adult leaders devoting their 'time. effort andl money to the maintenance and development of the move- ment. was the theme of an inspir- ing address at the Charlottetown Rotary-Club luncheon yesterday by Mr. Jackson Dodds. C.B.E., re- tired gencral manager of the Bank of Montreal and Deputy Chief Scout for Canada.

Taking as his subject "Preparing for Tomorrow Today,” Mr. Dodds warned that the enemies of de- mocracy are working unceasingly to spread their propaganda and expand their influence. Scouting, which is recognized as one of the beat safeguards against totalitar- ian inflltrdtlon, needs above all things more leaders, and in this connection the speaker made a. strong appeal for greater support from business and; professional men.

"Few of us can be unaware of what will happen to this country unless some positive forces are brought to bear on the develop- ment of young citizens," he said. "We are too well aware of the de- structive forces in our midst-of those men and women to whom the spiritual and democratic is anathema-people who thrive on hate; twisted minds which hate all men who believe in freedom. These people never stop in their efforts to lead youth down those lanes of rosy promise, to the eventual slavery of the totalitar- ian state."

More Than S7,500.000 Contributed To Manitoba

WXNNIPEEG. July 17 -(CP)- Manitoba said "thank you" today to some 1.000.000 Canadians and others who have given more than t'l.50o.o00 to help thousands whose homes suffered damage in the Red River floods.

The Manitoba flood relief fund officially wound up its appeal Sat- urday. Contributions totalled O1,- 53'l,000, but fund officials said this figure will be increased by dona- tions still coming in. The flow is likely to continue for several weeks.

In a statement expressing the general committee's gratitude. H. W. Manning of Winnlpcl. general chairman of the fund, said the public response represented ".1 great opening of hearts from many lands." -

The committee also thanked the thousands of volunteu workers who made the fund possible. It had not bani an organilod cam- paign in the usual sense. But the immensity of the flood disas-

ter ma turned it into th"."iKriEIt

undertaking of its kind ever con- ducted in Canada.

"Any expression of thanks." said;

Mr. Manning, "should incorporate a special word of appreciation to the national press services. dllly and weekly press. radio networks and local radio stations."

The money raised is being used to restore household furnishings. goods and personal effects not protected by insurance or taken care of by governmental or othrn agencies.

Already some 5,000 applications have been received and a corps of appraisers is busy processing them. As claims are caamined and ab- provod. restoration is made by cash payments.

Fund officials said they believe that contributions to the fund

will be sufficient to Npllr or fg- place all household goods and per- aonal belongings damaged by flood waters.
