The firemenfs three-day strike against the privately-o-wned Ca- nadian Pacific ended 60 seconds before midnight Tuesday, and the railway promptly began restoring operations to normal after partial

The firemen’s union and the CPR settled their long-standing argument on the basis of the Kel- lock royal commission report——an advisory, non-binding ruling that said firemen are not necessary on freight and yard diesels.

To achieve the settlement, one change was made in the report's findings to protect some 475 fire- men with seniority between 1953 and 1956. These men, remain as CPR firemen along with some 2,- 400 other workers with longer seniority ratings who were to keep their jobs anyway.

touched off a new round in a ‘Canada-U.S. row dating back to 1951 when the U.S. Senate in- ternal s ecur ity subcommittee branded Canadian Herbert Nor- man a Communist.

Mr. Smith, speaking with con- trolled anger, said the U.S. gov- ernment last August gave an un- dertaking that names of Cana- dian citizens appearing in evid- ence before congressional inves- tigating committees would be sent to Canadian authorities in confidence for investigation, if necessary, in Canada.

On that understanding, Mr. Smith said, the Canadian govern- ment had decided to droputhe matter which had ‘given rise to a stern Canadian protest to Wash- ington after Mr. Norman‘, Cana- dian ambassador to Egypt, com- mitted suicide in Cairo April 4, 1957. The subcommittee had re- vived Communist charges against him the previous month.

“Once again,” he said, "an in- vestigating committee of the U.S. Congress has ‘made public the name of a Canadian civil servant in complete disregard of the Ca- nadian g0vernment’s views for- cibly made known to the Congress only a few months ago as to the fair and proper way to deal with ‘matters of this kind."

The day Mr. Norman took his life in Cairo by jumping from the top of a seven-storey building, Mr. Diefenbaker, then opposition leader, said the subcommittee had “filched” Mr. Norman’s good name from him.

Pflimlin Moves To Stop Spread OI Algiers Revolt

PARIS (Reuters) .~— Premier Pierre Pflimlin’s' go v e r n ment Wednesday took a series of st-ern measures to prevent an army-led revolt in Algeria from spreading to France.

It banned public meetings and street demonstrations, halted all travel to Algeria and rounded up extreme right - wing “shock groups” in an effort to avert pos- -sible civil war.

In addition, all 400,000 French ‘troops serving on home territ'ory were confined to barracks tem- porarily and leaves cancelled.

A junta of French army offi-, cers and right -wing civilians seized power in Algiers Tuesday night shortly before Pflimlin won approval from the National As- sembly as France's 25th post-war premier.

The army rebels, fearing Pflim- lin might “sell out” in Algeria, demanded the return as premier of wartime hero Gen. Charles de Gaulle. The 67-year-old de Gaulle sat out the crisis in his Paris of- fice. ’ EMERGENCY MEETINGS

Pflimlin, 51-year-old leader of

pulaire, called an emergency cab- inet meeting immediately after his election and another meeting only five hours later.

Fears the cabinet might col- lapse Wednesday subsidied when the three conservative ministers agreed to postpone their resigna- tions in view of the crisis.

Poultry Industry Decline

Concern is expressed regard- ing the dropoff of Island poultry stated to have shown a ‘steady decline during the past year or so.

At a meeting sponsored by A PEC executive members and chaired by vice president Alan Holman, it was pointed out yesterday that the poultry industry accounts for about 12 1-2 per cent of the Island farm economy and any continuation of this recession in the industry could have serious economic re- sults.

In attendance at the meeting were J. Lincoln Dewar, secre- tary of the Federation of Agri- culture, B. B. Jones, Agricul- ture chairman of APEC., S. C. Scranton, Dominion livestock production branch and \Dave Peacock, poultry fieldman for the P. E. I. Department of Agriculture.

EVISCERATIN G PLANT

Ways and means of improving the industry were discussed at some length. Points brought to light were the fact that although an up to date eviscenating plant has been established at Sum. mersidewith substantial govern- ment assistance, a considerable volume of poultry continues to
