CRESWELI... England, Sept. 26- (OP) - Eighty coal miners died to- day in a blazing inferno almost 1.000 feet below the surface of Cres- well Colliery. regarded as the safest mine in Britain.

one hundred and twenty men were saved and 19 bodies were re- covered. sixty-one other trapped miners were given up for lost by mining officials.

A flash of fire leaped on to rub- ber conveyor belts, knocked out the ventilating system, ate up the pre- cious oxygen and filled the alley- ways with deadly fumes,

The poisonous fumes blocked res- oue attempts and choked the life out of the trapped men.

The 120 saved, caught nearer the surface. clawed their uay to safe- ty. They made the last few hun- dred yiirds on hands and knees,

Annual legion Carnival Opens Al Summerside

The annual Legion carnival op- ened last night in the new curling rink. Summerside and is away to a good start. It will continue every evening this week.

The fair was declared officially open by His Worship. Mayor Henry Wedge, who expressed the wish that the public will support the Legion by giving their patronage to this carnival. He said that the Legion is composed of men who served in war and many of them still carry the wounds of combat. If another war comes many of these men will vol- unteer again so they should not be forgotten by their fellow citizens as they have been in the past.

Mayor wedge was introduced by Branch President, Comrade Eaurl Cannon who acted as chairman. During the evening the crowd was entertained by accordian music by Douglas Pineau. whd won first prize in the amateur contest at the Trade and Industries Fair in Char- lottetown last week. -

All of the booths, which were at- tractively decorated. were doing a steady business last night and President Earl cannon was .the of- ficial weight gvuesseir and doing pretty well at it.-S

regarded as fundamental and unai- terable.

The in-camera talks are expected to continue until late tomorrow.

Mr. St. Laurent's motion grew out of an earlier proposal by Premier Leslie Pi-ost of Ontario that the con- ference go into private session with a fixed agenda. some delegates felt this might restrict debate. and Mr. St. Laurent's substitute motion was adopted.

The Prime Minister, opening to- day's sitting as conference chair- man. said he had heard with "much interest" yesterday's preliminary statements by the Provincial Prem- iers. many of whom suggested a definition of the fine lines dividing Federal and Provincial authority should accompany the steps to set up amendng machinery.

Mr. St. Laurent was "more and more convinced" that the confer- ence first should deal with the am- ending powers. After that. the other points could be taken care of.

He then touched on a new phase of the constitutional problem which N3 emerged spontaneously from this meeting-the expressed desire of several provinces, for a distinct- lveiv Canadian constitution written in Canada.

they could be easily resolved. Once the amending machinery was established. a "purely Canad- ian" constitution could be adopted. At; present, in questions of joint concern to the Provinces and the Dominion, the Province; had "very little protection."

His proposed motion for in cam- era sittings would have confined the discussion to establishment of an amendi procedure and a method for drafting a new constit- ution and to consideration of what constitutional yiu ' ' should be defined as fundamental rights. Under the present constitutional setup. the United if dom must be asked to amend the B. N. A. Act for questions of joint concern to the provinces and the Dominion. In matters of exclusively their own concern. the Provinces and the Dominion are free to make amend- ments on their own behalf.
