OTTAWA (CPl—Future prime- ministers will likely have at their disposal a $100,000, seven - - in “summer cottage" on a picturesque Quebec lake. about 15 miles from here.

The Federa District Commis- sion reported Friday it has of- fered the government a large house on Harrington Lake

The two-storey house, on a se- cluded knoll above the lake. was acquired by the FDC while de- veloping Gatineau Park.

Prime Minister Diefenbaker. en route to Toronto for the Grey Cup game. could not be reached for comment. but it is understood he will accept the FDC offer. The house was built in 1925 by Col. Cameron M. Edwards of Ot- tawa. a lumberman. at a cost of about $100,000. In I951 the FDC purchased the property around Harrington Lake for The move was part of a devel--

Planes Flying I

By RENNIE TAYLOR MCURO SOUND. Antarctica iAPl—In the white waste of the Antarctic. a little smudge of black can go a long way.

In fact. it has set scientists to envisage startling possibilities: safe trails in polar regions made hazardous by crevasses, greatly simplifying supply and transport problems.

And black dirt or powdered coal may provide valuable navi- gation aids for aircraft over country where compasses don't! work or play weird tricks. EXPLOSIVE CLUE l

The clue came from explosions, set off by a trail-blazing party to dislodge flimsy snow bridges con- - cealing crevasses across its path. :

The party of U.S. Army and‘ navy experts blazed the trail from Little America to a point 646 miles southward that was to become Byrd Station. a scientific. centre for the International Geo- physical Year |I(}Yi. |

The army—navy party detected the hid d e n crevasses with an ‘i electronic "feeler" extending in‘ front of a Weasel. a small track-i laying vehicle.

After blasting the snow bridges. which might support a dog or a man but not the heavy supply ve- i hicles, the exposed crevasses —-‘ some more than I00 feet deep- coulil be bulldozed full of snow and ice to give firm footing to‘ supply trains. l

But the blasts also left a few: ounces of black and grey par-l ticles to smudge small spots of snow l Because of its dark colol‘. thei smudge began absorbing heat‘ from sunshine. and as it w r ed it melted its way down throughl the snow and ice leaving telltale depressions. The aotlon continues as long as the smudge can pick up a speck of light. And some of it diffuses toward the top and! can always be seen. FOUND DI-IPRESSIONS

So when the party retraccd its steps three weeks later. it found « the crevasse fills well marked with such depressions. l

This was last January. Bull even recently. a heavily - loaded - trail party made the long trip‘ over this stretch with supplies for Byrd Station. and it found the- smudge-caused depressions i

C. N. S. Ships Can Be Recalled

OTTAWA (CPi—Transport Min- ister Hees said Thursday that last month’s transfer of the eight-ship Canadian National Steamships’ West Indies service to Trinidad registry was subject to the fleet's recall to the Canadian flag. The minister said. however, he has had no indication from e CNS management that such a re- turn is contemplated. The ships were transferred after 'vc month strike by

their c rew s, members of the Seafarers’ Inter- national Union tCLCl. Mr. Hees said at the time the step was taken to get service resumed.

George Marler. Montreal 5!. Antoine - Westmount. last Liberal transport minister. asked in the mmons “was there an under- standing that the transfer was subject to a provision that the ships could be called back to Ca- nadian registry?"

Mr. Hees said yes.

Welcome New Housing Plans

OTTAWA ‘CPI — Spokesmen for the construction industryl welcomed Thursday government plans to make it easier for Cana- dians of modest means to own homes but warned more mortgage funds will be needed to make the plans effective. ,

Tullis N. Carter of Toronto.‘ president of the Canadian (‘on- slruction Association. said in a statement the industry appreci- atcs plans for lower down pay- merits and income limitations an-l notinccd Wednesday night.

"The reduction in down pay- ments means a somewhat higher mortgage per unit unless the av- eragc size and cost of building lots and houses gets smaller." hisl statement sai "This in turn would mean a reduction in the number of houses financed un- less the supply of mortgage funds also increases."

He described the allocation ofi $300.000.000 for loans by Central Mortage and Housing Corpora- tion for home construction as "helpful" but added that "a‘ close watch must be kept on this sittiation."
