Claims Yukon Vote Irregular
WHITEHORSE. Y. T. (CP)-A claim of irregularities in federal voting in Yukon riding June to was made today by Erik Nielsen. unsuccessful Progressive Conser- vative candidate.
Mr. Nielsen petitioned the Yukon Territorial Court to void the election of Aubrey Simmons. Liberal candidate who was re- elected to Parliament with a ma- iorlty of 64 votes.
The petition holds Nut 20 of the 171 soldier votes are improperly handled. It claims persons whose names did not appear on the voters list in a polling division were allowed to vote in that di- vision.
In other cases. it is claimed. , not resident in the Yukon were allowed to vote. Fifty resor- vation Indians were also alleged to have been given the vote. as well as persons under 21. Thai petition lists it cases or people voting twice.
Admission of facts by Mr. sim- mons could, at the discretion ol Mr. Justice J. E. Gibbon, bring the petition up for hearing late this summer. If the petition is granted a new election will be necessary.
Mr. Simmons, .who had not re- eeivsd his copy of the petition. said that until he did he would not
express an opinion on lie action.
"I wish to assure all Yukoners. however. that lollowtng an invest- igation of the alleged irregular- ities. I shall be the first one to agree that another election will be held, should it appear that I did not receive a true mandate from the people of the Yukon," he said. I

OTTAWA (CP) - Canada con- trlbuted a giant airlift and seallft of supplies for construction of the DEW (Distant Early Warning- ra- dar line which the United States Air Force" announced Tuesday night will go into full operation to day.
And most of the estimated 1.- mo men required to man the non- automatlc segments of the radar system will be Canadians.
some of the units of the 3.000- mile line have been in operation for some time. The Washington announcement means that the re- mote stations now have all been lined up.

GIAVEYAIIDS OFF LIMITS Nearly 150 years ago. the United Empire loyalists began to settle in the St. John River Valley. Many went farther north to better loud but many stayed on the rocky earth here.
They and their ” endants oc- cupy the small graveyards of the simple country churches. The graveyards are the only places in the camp labelled "out of bounds to military pcrsonne ."
The farmers here were. for the main, deeply religious people and believed firmly In church-going. They have left their stamp on the land: scores of white painted churches.
But all trace of the settl rs will eventually disappear. Air dy the bush is creeping in on the farm fields.
Beautiful apple orchards are he- lng choked to death by weeds and shrubbery. The barns are falling d0Wi1. the wind carrying lway the last wisps of dried hay.
HOUSES DESERTED
Saddest of all are the empty. houses. The paint flaking away and muddy boots have left clogs of earth across the floors and up and down the stairs: In the allies are sometimes found dog-eared magazines or perhaps a, school primer.
Most of the soldiers seem to en- ter the houses almost with rever-
supplles along with other vessels. Canada”: meteorological service also provided vital weather infor- mation during the construction period.
