“OTTAWA (CP)—The cabinet’s treasury bo’ard has approved : award of a contract to Ferguson Industries of Pictou, N.S., for construction of a new ferry for Bell Island, Nfld., Transport Min- ister Hees said Tuesday in the Commons.

He spoke in a Senate debate on second reading—approval in prin. ciple—of-a bill boosting the St. Lawrence Seaway Authority's spending powers from $300,000,- 000 to -$335,000,000. The bill was approved earlier by the Com- mons. .

He said he will vote against the bill.

US. Space Cone Passes The 118,852-Mile Mark

WASHINGTON (AP)—Pioneer but that was according to plen.

IV lunged past the 118,000-mile mark Tuesday on its dash toward a hopeti-for orbit around the sun. It was America’s deepest pene- tration into space.

The last tracking report of the day placed the tiny cone 118,852 miles from earth and moving out- ward at 5,498 miles an hour. It thus had travelled more than half the 220,000-mile distance to the moon. And it had gone more than 47500 miles beyond the farthest point reached by an air force space probe last Oct. 11.

A giant radio telescope in Cali- ornmia calculated’ this position for the 13-pound package of instru-

o you again, and best wishes,” the British leader called out in Russian — amid Soviet cheers — before boarding his Comet IV jet airliner at Vnukovo airport

Applause of the airport: crowd and a final warm handclasp from Premier Khrushchev marked the windup of Macmillan’s 10-day mission to Moscow and what a British-Soviet communique called a valuable efchange of views.

BRITAIN’S MOVE

(Macmillan was jaunty “and smiling on’ landing in Lopdon. He Suggested that Britain-—should take the lead in seeking ways to ease East-West tensions. We did not agree on many importa is- sues. But we did agree that these vital problems of Central Europe should be settled by negotiations and not by forée.’’) —Khrushchev and Macmillan ad- mitted disagreement about: legal and political aspects involved in German issues...

But the docuntent, signed at the Kremlin, declared:

“The free interchange of yiews and ideas which has taken place has created a better understand- ing of the respective attitudes of the two governments and has thereby made a useful contribu- tion toward the forthcoming in- ternational discussions in a wider circle.”

DANGER IN BERLIN

He warned there’ that the Ber- lin situation has dangerous impli- cations that must oe settled by wegotiation rather than forge. He

| made this remark in response to

a Russian correspondent’s re: quest for comment on a state ment, which the correspondent sttributed to State Secretary Dul- les, that the United States would no stop shor of force of arms

sto preserve the occupation of

eriin.

~The Russians have declared that armed violation of East Ger- man territory in such a situation would mean war.

Asked by a Communist corres- pondent whether he believes the time is nearer when defensive al- liances can be abandoned, Mac- millan said:

“We have to work steadily for- ward from point to point.”

Macmillan said he had pre- sented Soviet leaders ‘ certain ideas that ‘they had appeared to regard as constructive. on the ending of nutlear weapons tests.

“Now,” he said, ‘‘we must con- sult our friends to-see if further advances can be made.”

Khrushchev and Macmillan ex+ ehanged final words at the air- port. 3

“We want to eliminate ali ob stacles to peaceful coexistence,” Khrushchev said. ‘‘We believe we have understood your position correctly, and we hope you have understood ours.” |

Macmillan assured him that as a result df his visit he felt he now will “better be able to tackle those issues on which the future: of mankind“iepends.”’
