Two members of the “war council” of Khamba tribesmen, who are reported to control most of southeastern Tibet, have ar- rived in Kalimpong seeking sup- port of Tibetans in India, the newspaper also reported.

The fact that all was quiet around the Indian consulate would suggest the Chinese had succeeded: in doing this and that any fighting still going on was likely to be in distant parts of the capital.

LONDON (Reuters) — The So- viet press and radio Sunday welcomed the agreement between President Eisenhower and Prime Minister Macmillan on a summit conference.

A Moscow Radio commentator said ‘‘one can only welcome’’ the statement.

“The immediate future wili show, however, if this statement will be followed by practical steps taken by the Western powers to reach agreement on disputed Is- sues in world affairs.”

Business Block Gutted By Fire

HALIFAX (CP) — A stubborn early morning fire Sunday des- troyed the interior of a down- town business block.

Fire Chief Fred MacGillivary said the first of two alarms was sounded at 12:06 a.m. AST. Ten. hours later fire fighters were still probing through smoulder- ing timbers and crumbling §in- terior of the brick-walled struc- ture.

The cause of the fire and the extent of damage. was not im- mediately known. No one was injured.

It was the second time in 18 years that fire had _ ripped through the two-storey building on the corner of Sackville and Barrington Streets.

British Rocket Engineer Quits

LONDON (Reuters) — One of Britain’s leading rocket engine- ers said Saturday he has re signed his job because of the country’s “complete lack of policy” ‘in space research.

P. H. Leyton, 4, was chief rocket designer for the Saunders- Roe Company and was in charge of Britain’s Black Knight Bal- listic missile.

Leyton said Britain could not afford a space program on the same scale as Russia and the United States, who already had an enormous _ start.

“But out contribution could be the most important of the lot— to learn how to do things cheaply.”’ e

Ottawa's Ferry Plans Unknown, Premier Says

Premier Alex W. Matheson said last night that he had no information as to what Finance Minister Donald Fleming had in mind when he assured the House of Commons that “steps have been taken to increase ferry ser- vice between Prince Edward Is- land and New Brunswick.”

Replying to a question from Lionel Chevrier on Friday last, coe gave the assurance.

Chevrier asked the question when a supplementary item of approximately $25,000 was being passed to meet the deficit on the ferry service between Borden and Tormentine.

Mr. Chevrier had asked what

steps are being taken to improve

-; government after the Second,c World War.

Dr. Kirkconnell gays, “Mf we have to choose between sound teeth and healthy brains, I would vote for the brains. Perhaps there is evidence, however, to discredit the Perkins thesis.”

The Acadia president insists he has no opinion in the matter but he finds Dr. Perkins’ statements “so alarming’ that he wants to have them refuted ‘if any valid counter-anguments exist.”

The town council, acting on the recommendation of Dr. C. E. A. DeWitt, town health officer, voted early this month to fluoridate the water supply.

EXTENSIVE STUDY

Dr. DeWitt says he bases his recommendation on extensive in- vestigations by dental experts,

"| professors of preventive medicine

and others. He says more than 1,500 cities and towns in the U.S. and many in Canada, including the city of Halifax, fluoridate their drinking water.

“As the controlled fluoridation of drinking water is a practicable and effective public health mea- sure, I recommend -it,’’ Dr. De-

| Witt says. . “

Dr. Kirkconnell quotes Dr. Per- kins as writing in 1954: ‘‘The real purpose behind water fluoridation is to reduce the resistance of the masses to domination and con- trol, and to loss of liberty. ....

“Repeated doses of infinitesi- mal amounts of fluorine will in time gradually reduce the in- dividual’s power to resist domina- tion by slowly poisoning and nar-

the service which “is certainly not adequate.”

A committee from the Provin- cial Legislature has been auth- orized to go to Ottawa in an el- fort to get the federal depart- ment of transport to buy the Vacationiand, a 140-car ferry, from the State of Michigan. The ferry would be put on the Bor- den-Tormentine run.

NEVER THE SAME

“Any person who drinks arti- ficial fluoridated water for a period of one year or more will never again be the same person, mentally or physically.”

Dr. Kirkconnell quotes Perkins as saying he learned from a Nazi chemist of Nazi and Communist schemes to secure mass control through water medication.

The 63 - year . old president

‘4 started a ‘hot debate last month

when he suspended a senior stu- dent and ordered him to leave town for writing what Dr. Kirk- connell called a ‘“blasphemous’”’ article in the student weekly, The Athenaeum.

SUSPEND EDITOR

In the ensuing controversy over censorship of the paper a stu- dent judicial committee sus- pended the editor on complaint of Dr. Kirkconnell. The Athen- aeum staff resigned in protest but later returned to their jobs when the judicial committee resigned.

Two weeks ago Dr. Krikconnell in qa ‘“‘pury - the-hatchet” appeal, called ‘for ‘an amnesty by both sides in the dispute. At that time he said the university recognizes it cannot force a student to leave town.

The article’s author, Robert Fiander, 27, of North Sydney, N.S., remains suspended from Acadia but was permitted to con- tinue his studies by correspon- dence.

Seven Down In Two Years Is Nasser’s Empire Count

BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP)—Seven Arab rulers who dared to stand against President Nasser’s dream of empire bave been shorn of power in less than two years. Now Premier Abdel Karim Kas- sem ‘of Iraq has been marked for destruction.

Always before, Nasser’s well- olled, higaly-efficient propaganda machine has handled the job; ‘with Nasser only taking a personal hand when needed.

This time Nasser has staked his formidable reputation by per- sonally leading the assault on Kassem.

It is ironic that Nasser’s No. 1 target is the man who wiped out taree of the United Arab Repub- lie president's major enemies in one coup last summer\ in Iraq.

But Kassem then cautiously drew away from Nasser’s all-em. bracing Arab nationalism and swung to the left. Nasser backers in Iraq were shunted aside or arrested Arab Communists in Iraq rose in influence.

Now Nasser, in a series of speeches in Damascus, has ac- cused Kassem of a long list of sins—heresy, murder and opening Iraq to the Communists. If it is poss’ e to judge by Nasser’s past successes, the odds against Kes- gem are high.
