VANOOUVHI, July 24 -(CP) - M. J. Coidwell. national leader of the C. O. E. today called on the rcdonl Government. to recall Par- liament in view of the Korean

situation. -

Mr. coldwell arrived by train here today for the biennial con- vention of the C. C. 1-.. which opuns Wednesday. .

Ito criticised the government for proroguing in the. midst of the Korean crisis.

He had spent ” a week in Pusan. time enough to note the 19th century style of clothing and the fact that his Js.pancse'was not understood by the south Koreans any more than he could under- stand their language. -8.

Tacoma. Washington, to A military base in Japan.

In twenty hours item the Can- adian west coast I'll be back again in the super charged atmosphere of a war theatre. That is how close the Korean fighting is to Canada.

It is strange going back into harness for awhile as a war cor- respondent.

It ended the last stint on the sidewalk at dawn outside a red brick schoolhouse at Reims in France where the German high command signed the surrender terms on a May morning for the Allied high command.

That schoolhouse was the head- quarters of General Eisenhower. supreme commander of the Allied Expeditionary Force.

I remember driving back to Paris through the suniit valley of the Marne with ground mist in the wooded valleys. having an exultant feeling of relief that first morning of peace.

Change Of Mind

For a couple of years after 1945 I tried like thousands and even millions of others to kid myself that peace was here to stay. But after living in Europe for two years after that; after seeing what was going on in parts of Eastern Europe; after witnessing thelab- ortive meeting of the Council of Foreign Ministers in Moscow, I slowly and reluctantly changed my mind. Heading to a new front now I have a feeling that Korea is just the start of a series of ser- ious alarums and excursions that may lead to the worst and that we will find no peace for'a long time to come. ' It has been a frantic business preparing for this assignment. The decision for a variety of reasons had to be made quickly and late Friday afternoon I received the go-ahead sign. Then the "flap" started. Last spring my wife had given my old battledress to a plumber who was doing some re- pairs in the House. What to do about kit then? I could only round up some ciwy stuff and trust I could get some "GI" pants and shirts and a tin hat in Tokyo. Now in the war as I knew it, there were not many complicat- ions about a takeoff. You were simply accredited to military force and that was all. No passport was required to go off to anywhere. Some medical sergeant stuck I needle into you. It was always blunt and you joined a unit.

Scramble for Visa .

But this time there was a mad scramible toget I visa on the pass- port. Externsl Affairs Department did ycoman service getting official word from MscArthur's hood- quarters that I could land in Ja- pan and report from there. Tne Department of National Health and Welfare ru.stled through books to find out what kind of innocu- lations I needed for Japan and then issued me with I yellow booklet impressively entitled "In- ternational Certificate of Innocu- lstion and Vaccination."

A doctor friend shot. me full of smallpox and other vaccines in a pleasant office and not in the usual barren army medical room. Anot-her scramble for airline re- servations halfway around the world. This never happened be- fore. Somehow you miss the war- time asslstsnce the public relations unit gave you.

Then packing kit in an hour. no semblance of clothing for a cum- palgn except faded bush shirt for flrst division days in Sicily.

A quiet few hours in the gar- den with the family. That never hnppened before on a war assign- ment. No security restrictions ex- ccpt those dictated by competitiv Journalistic necessity. r And away to Vancouver in thir- teen hours flying time on the night plane. We cleared from Canada rather dazed by it all. (Copyright Souitham News SEE

mar Prime Minister by the King in 1941. Only 24 persons hold this historic order at any one time. It is given by the King. himself. The casket stood by the are- placo before which Mr. King had spent many hours worki and reading since his rctix-omen from pubuc life and before which he invariably received guests at his traditional New Year's Day recep- tions and on other occasions. -In-accordance with his wishu. there was no indication of mourn- ing at Lsuricr I-fauna. Blinds wen not drawn and sunlight streamed through the windows.

The only sign: of anything a- miss at the home of the man who headed the Liberal Party for I years and was Prime Minister for mer: than 21 yearl. were the two uniformed policemen at the main

Among first Arrivals

Among the first to arrive at the residence on Laurier Avenue were Trade Minister C.D.'Howe, an old cabinet colleague of Mr. King's, and MI).-Gen. H. F. G. Lotion. secretary to the Governor-General. Other curly arrivals included Sir Lyman Dam former Chief Justice of Carlda. Mr. Justice C. H. Locke ol the Supreme Court of Canada and Stanley Woodward, United States Ambassador to Canada. Many other members of the dip- lomatic corps visited Lluricr House during the day.

Prime Minister St. Laurent, rc- turning to the capital at noon from his summer home on the St. Lawrence River, went directly to Mr. King's home accompanied by Defence Minister Clsxton.

Callers at Laurier House were received by Mr. King's relatives. by Edouard Handy, his private secretary, and by Fred A. McGreg- or. former secretary, and recent assistant in preparing his mem- oirs. The relatives were three nephews and their wives, John Lay of Toronto, Larry Lay of,St. Adele. Que., and Arthur King of Toronto. ' Throughout the capital and a- cross the continent, flags on Gov- ernment buildings were flying at half mast as Mr. St. Laurent left Laurier House for the Parliament buildings. There. he presided at a cabinet session called to complete arrangements for the state funeral.

' Will Lie In State

Tonight, Mr. King's body was to be taken with a minimum of cer- emony to the Parliament build- ings, to lie in state throughout to- morrow and most of Wednesday. The general public will be al- lowed to pass the bier from 10 a.. in. tomorrow until 9 p.m. and a-- gain from 10 a.m. Wednesday un-: til the casket is closed for remov-I al about 3.30 pm. to St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church for the fu- neral ceremony.

The procession from the build- ings to the church. situated on Wellington Street opposite the Supreme Court building. will be marked by one of the largest mil- itary turnouts since the war. The three-block route from the Peace Tower to the church will be lined with members of the armed forces and veterans organizations standing shoulder-to-shoulder. Detachment: from four of Can- ada's crack active force regirnenu -the Royal 22nd from Quebec. The Regiment de Hull, and the Royal Canadian Dragoons and the Royal Canadian Regiment. both stationed at Petawawa, Ont.-will march behind the R.C.A.F. central band. together with R.C.A.F. and naval detachments.

The service in the church. where Mr. King worshipped. will be con- ducted by Rev. A. I. Burnett. Fol- lowing the service, there will be a procession from the church to Ottawa's Union Station. where the body will be placed on a special

train for Toronto. A commiiai service will be held at Mount Pleasant Thursday.

LAST HOURS

OTTAWA. Jul)' A4 -(OP) Those close to the late former Prime Minister Mackenzie Kins disclosed today that before he be- came unconscious in the attack which caused his death Saturday he felt it was the end.

It was late Thursday, . after a very comfortable and restful day, that the chins preceding acute pneumonia were observed.

There had been similar attacks previously and his Dhysifllm '13 well as his secretarial associates behaved it possible that he would rally again.

As he became weaker. Mr. King thanked his physician and his at- tendanto for their interest. care and sollcltude and expressed the belief that he would not again rally.

His last audible words. according to one at his bedside. were words of prayer for the welfare of his as- sociates and for all mankind. I Even a he became unconscious his attendants felt he would come through the attack as he had on previous occasions.

,It was not until Saturday noon that his attending physician: do- cided the peoplc should know that the former prime minister was dy-
