U.S. Cooperation Needed In CommonWeaIIh Plans

By LLOYD MCDONALD Canadian Press Staff Writer NEW YORK (CleThe co-oper-

ation of the United States with the Commonwealth is needed for the proper accomplishment of the

aims of the recently concluded

Commonwealth trade and econo- mic conference in Montreal, Can- ada’s External Affairs minister Smith said Tuesday night.

In a speech highlighting a ded- ication dinner on the eve of the formal opening of Canada House in New York City, the external affairs minister stressed the “tri- angle” relationship of Britain and

the Commonwealth with Canada

and the U.S. WANT CO-OPERATION

The Commonwealth countries, he stressed, were not asking for a “handout” from the U.S. but they did expect, or hope, for this type of American cooperation:

I. The U.S. should implement President Eisenhower’s proposal for an immediate and substantial increase in the resources avail- able to the international bank and monetary fund.

2. The U.S. should participate in “a careful commodity by com- modity approach to the orderly marketing of raw materials and to ways of ensuring that primary producers throughout the world may experience enough sense of security . . . to build a firm base of economic stability . "

3. The U.S. should exercise in its commercial and economic pol-

icy “a measure of self-restraint

. . . as a practical means toward achieving reasonable standards of living in all countries . ”

The external affairs minister did not deal with foreign policy in his speech which climaxed the years of planning leading to the establishment of the skyscraper which in the words of its found- er-s will stand “as a Canadian landmark" in New York.

U.S. FINANCING NEEDED

CFCY'TV Studio» Facilities To Be Moved To Ch'fown

By next Spring CFCY’s TV stu- dio facilities will be located in Charlottetown, station manager Robert Large stated yesterday.

The Company has chosen a site immediately adjoining their pre- sent headquarters building on Kent Street, and have already completed the initial phases of construction.

The management are hopeful that the walls and roof of the new annex will be completed be- fore winter sets in. The building will be 60 feet long, 40 feet wide and rise one-storey above street. level.

Interior details-layout, equip- ment etc. will be planned during the winter month, with the final

touchu added to the building In the early Spring, Mr. Large said.

When the structure is complete, it will be possible to originate live telecasts, films, etc., in the city studio, and transmit them from the Strathgartney tower

This will be accomplished by means of beaming equipmedt al- ready acquired by the company, which will relay the program from the studio to the transmit- ter.

This equipment was tested dur- ing the past Old Home Week when several of the major-barn- ess races were telecast to Marl- time viewers.

Mr. Large emphasized that the tramsmiting facilities of CFCY-TV would remains at Strathgartney.

B.C.’ Wants Gov’t Aid For Railways, Gordon Opposed

OTTAWA (CP) — The British Columbia government will ap- proach other provinces with a proposal for federal aid to the railways as a, means of avoiding further increases in freight rates, C. W. Brazier, BC. counsel, said Tueslay.

The BC. plan would Involve $150,000,000 worth of federal sub- sidies to be paid to the railways over a four-year period along with about $400,000,000 in long- term, low-interest loans for a modernizing program.

Mr. Brazier said he didn't ex- pect all. the provinces, which are opposing a railway demand for a boost in freight rates to pay higher wage demands and so head off a strike, would “buy” the BC. plan.

“But at least it is something to start wit! ,” Mr. Brazier said in an interview. “Perhaps some of the provinces may have a differ- ent idea—perhaps a modification

of the BC. proposal—which we can place before the government for consideration.”

The railways are asking for an immediate increase of 19 per cent in freight rates to cover the cost of a contract settlement with unions. Hearings before the board of transport cornmissioners are to open Monday. All provinces, ex- cept Ontario and Quebec, are re- ported to be ready to oppose the requested increase.

WIINENIIPEG (CW—Donald Gor- don, president of the Canadian National Railways, said Tuesday he is opposed to any federal sub- sidy flor Canadian lines so they can meet higher wage bills with- out freight rate increases.

“In my view such subsidies could result in an economic trap and, as well, incur the risk of an infectious inflation.” he said.

U.N. Delegates’ Attention Shifts To The Middle East

By LLOYD McDONALD Canadian Press Staff Writer UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (OP)

United Nations delegates shifted their attention Tuesd-ay—alempop arin at least—«from the For to the Middle East upon circulation of Secretary-Genenal Dag Ham- marskjold’s report on that now— quie'scent area.

liammars-kjold, who made a mission to Jordan, Lebanon and the Uni-ted Arab Republic after the August emergency session of the General Assembly gave him broad investigative powers, re ported officially to the assembly on his efforts.

The primary result, he told the 81 UN member countries, is that he has obtained conditional prom- ises of early withdrawal of the United States and British troops still station-ed in Jordan and Le- banon. These troops were moved in after last July’s revolt in Iraq threatened to set off a’full-scale upheaval in the Middle East.

First reaction to the secretary general’s report was that it re‘ flectcd “satisfactory progress” in the peace—keeping attempt. And in view of the resumption in Warsaw Tuesday of the ambassadorial talks between the U.S. and Red China on the Qu-emoy crisis, the Middle East revival tended to de- emphasrze the Far East situation. WON’T BUY PEACE

Nationalist China‘s delegate, Dr. Tingfu Tsiang, spoke in the as-

,sembly‘s general debate Tuesday”

and reiterated that Chlamg Kar- shek’s regime refuses to buy peace by abandoning disputed Quemoy and Matsu. However, there was nothing unexpected in his pronouncement and no indi- cation that the U.S. was strongly backing him in the UN at this time.

The sem'etary-gzeneral‘s report declared it was too early to pro: dict whether the Arab states would be successful in living to gelher as good neighbors, as they had promised.

He indicated also that if scrim”.

situation may again be brought to the UN as a threat to world peace.

The secretarygeneral said Leb- anon anrl the U.S. hope to see the complete withdrawal of American forces by the end of October, pro- vided the security situation in Lebanon continues to improve.

Britain and Jordan would an n-ounce a decision to begin with drawal in October, and it would be completed as quickly as the situation in the area permits.

Hammanslkjold said implemen- tation of the Arab “good neigh bor” resolution passed by the emergency session in August “is still at an early stage and it is therefore premature to pass ludg~ ment on the degree of success with which it may mee ."

He had promises from. the Arab governments “to translate the terms of the resolution into a liv- ing reality."

eral and lieutenant-governor of Ontario.

Another scheduled speaker at the banquet was William Zecken- dorf, New York realtor with large interests in Can-ads whose finan- cial support for the new building enabled its construction to begin but led for a time to fears that its Canadian characer might be lost because of a withdrawal of gov- ernment support.

CONTROVERSY SETTLED

But this controversy was settled long before Tuesday night‘s ban- quet, and Zeckendorf will be an official g-uesa at today’s ceremon~ ies.

The structure, one of the most beautiful in an area' of post- war architectural development, is marked with the coats-charms of the 10 provinces cast in brightly colored ena-melled bronze along the wall facing the entrance court.

A stained-glass window forms the rear wall of the building lobby and incorporates symbols of Cana- dian lira. It was designed by two Canadian artists, Angus MacDon- ald and Elizabeth Bang of Tor- onto.

0n the street level is one of the government offices which repre- sents one of the closest ties be. tween Canada and the American public — the Canadian Travel Bureau. Its colorful posters sup- plement the coasts - of - arms in making the building a real r‘ana—

Says Demons Keep Many ' In Asy-Iums

LONDON (Reuters) — A canon of the Church of England said Tuesday that many of the people in mental hospitals are possessed of demons rather flban diseases of the brain.

Rev. E. G. Burrough of Oxford made the observation after a the- ological commission on demono- logy was proposed to the lower house of the Convocation of Can- terbury, governing body of the Anglican Church.

The proposal, made by the Archdeacon of AstOn, was over- whelmivngly rejected.

“I am a believer in angels and I am also a believer in demons, or evil Spirits," Burrough said.

“I feel quite sure that many of the people spending their lives in lunatic asylums arepossessed of e‘vil Spirits rather than diseases of the brain.”

The archdeacon said that some of the most experienced priests he had known had maintained that the church did not teach ad, equate belief in Hell.

Rev. A. P. Shepherd of Wor- cester cemented: “The. first movement of the devil is to per- suade us he does not moist, then that God does not exist and flu- ally that we do not exist our- slaves.”
