OTTAWA. Feb. 16 -- (CF) -- Tranaport Minister Chevrler an- nounced today in the Commons that. starting tomorrow morning. all Canadian boxcar: on United States lines must be returned empty to this country because of s shortage in various areas.

Mr. Chevrler said there usually is a shortage of boxcar: at this time of the year. but the Illus- tlon this year was aggravated by the recent strike of United States swltchmen.

The Canadian Railway Associa- tlon had been in touch with Un- lted States authorities on the question of speeding the return of Canadian boxcars.

Starting tomorrow morning. all Canadian cars on U. 5. line: must be returncd cmply. This would mean quite a loss of rev- enuc to the the railways. but was

-indicative of their willingness lo

co-operate. No stone would be left un- turned in efforts to solve the

problem. Mr. Chevrier raid.

Newsprint mills have been par- ticularly hard hit by the car shortage. Some mills said they would have to close down unless cars were obtained to move news- print out of their crammed stor- age quarters.

In Montreal, railway spokesmen said that Canada has more than 30.000 box cars in the United states.

The return flow is expected spec-

ifically to ease the newaprlnt-shlp- inent situation, already showing

signs of improvement.

.Thur the Board accepted the proposition of the dealers in part and submitted to the dealers a counter proposition regarding the levy. The dealers will be given until nbruary 26 to make their decisions.

The dealers stated last week that they would collect all levies from the grower starting Feb. 14 provided that they bcassurod that the levies be refunded should the Courts decide that the Marketing Board Scheme was invalid.

Korean IR-eds lioclied Back By Assails

(By Robert Eunaorr)

TOKYO. Feb. 20-(Tuesday) - Korean Communist forces deep in central Korea were rocked back on their heels Monday by atlff Allied air. ground and artillery assaults while battered Chinese Red troops continued a major pullback to the north.

U. 5. Eighth Army troops, re- gaining the initiative along the. entire warfronf. stabbed aggres- sively at the retiring foe in a re- newal of tactics aimed at inflict- ing maximum casualties.

Many Chlnena Beyond Parallel

Lt.-Gen. Matthew B. Rldgway, Eighih Army commander. told correspondents that while the Chinese were checked. they still had enough strength to bar effective Allied crossings of the 38th parallel.

Rldwoy noted there were "large unlocatedChlnege elements" north of that boundary line. United Na- tions operations north of par- allel 38,would be "impossible." he said. if the Chinese "brought down the masses of men available to them."

Even as the Eighth Army com- mander spoke. his tanks and in- fantry men were rolling out to attack once again.

Southeast of Wonju an Ameri- can . tank-infantry task force smashed nine miles north of Chechon. blunting Red Korean prongs which had been stabbing into the U. N. right flank.

The foray drove four miles in- side the Red lines.

While Chinese forces were suf- fering epic casualties in their vain offensive last week. the North Koreans slipped an esti- mated 20.000 men past, Wonju and made a stab at Chechon.

The Red vanguard. estimated at 8,'Q00,Uto 10,000 men. was driven back one mile along a 2 I-2-mile front north of Chechon on Mon- day. AP Correspondent Stan Swlnton reported. Swlnton said the front was about 6 1-2 air miles due north of Chechon.

Says Report

OTTAWA. Feb. 10 - (Special)-v will a bridge ordered by and de- signed for Chinese Nationalist lead- er Chiang-Kai-Sbek under Canada's mutual aid program finally end up In Charlottetown?

This in a question occupying tiie minds of Prince Edward Island members and Crown Assets Disposal Corporation authorities in Ottawa.

It is understood that on both his recent visit: to Ottawa. Premier Jones made enquiries about and entered into neg tiations over this bridge built in sections at Mom- real for General Chlang. It is re- ported that the Island Premier even went so far as to take an option on the atcelwork at a figure regarded as very low in e light of prevail- ing steel prices.

A still more vital question Is whether the bridge now offered for sale by Crown Assets. would fit the distance and the piers of the Hills- borough Bridge. Obviously, it could not be a perfect fit for the piers and approaches. Whether engin- eering sklll and addition of a mod- erate amount of steel would make the structure serviceable is a mat- ter etlll to be decided.

Before reaching a final decision. It is understood that Premier Jones will place the entire question be- fore bia cabinet. and f eera of the Public Works Department.

Collapse of the ' Dupleuls bridge across the st. Maurice River near Thred; Riven. Que..l recently. tends to make all concerned with bridge conatrncBon particularly careful before definitely undertak- ing a bridge project. And an a opac- lalllt. Ira, the buying and selling of livestock. Premier Jones la known

liable to buy as pig in a poke. There is i chance however. that he would get most of the essentials of a first- claaa bridge at a low price. and that since the lllllsboroirgh Bridge is part of the Trans-Canada High- way. the Federal Government would make a very substantial contribu-

tion to overall construction costs.
