UITAWA. May I--ispecialli - Acting for Fisheries Minister Mey- how new on route back to Can- ada after conferences in Australia and New Zealand. J. Watson Mac- Nsiught, Liberal member for Prince. today piloted two inter- national fisheries agreements throillh the House of Commons.

First was the international con- vention signed at Washington on northwest Atlantic fisheries. and second extension of Pacific Coast port privileges in connection with the western halibut fisheries.

Sponsoring the agreement. Mr. MacNnught explained that Can- ada: the United States. Great Bri- tain. Newfoundland, France. Spain. Portugal, Iceland. Denmark. Nor- way and Italy are signatories to the convention following a con- ference in Washington in Feb- ruary 19d9. Purpose is for the nit. tions concerned to collect: and dis- seminate information of a scien- tific character on internatlomi fisheries in the northwest Atlan- tic area. Any nation may suggest regulations it believes in the in- terests of the industry.

Mr. Mac-Naught explained that the permanent seat of the con- vention will be in North A erlcs at a place yet to be deaig cited. The convention for 1950 has been signed by Great Britain. Iceland and the United States and awaits signature by Canada. Sole change in the 1950 convention arises from the fact that in February 1049. Newfoundland was a colony of Great Britain and today she is a Province of Canada.

The motion was agreed to by the Commons without division or de- bate.

Second Agreement llibmilliil 10 the House by the Parliamentary Assistant to Fisheries Minister Mayhsw was the halibut pact on the Pacific coast. It provides for reciprocal prlvllsgcr for Canadian and United States fishing vessels to'lahd their catches of halibut in ports of the other party to the agreement without payment of duty and to trans-ship or sell the catches in bond.

Mr. MacNaught exp!-ined that the new agreement would be bent- flcial to the Canadian hailbiit fishery. Under tsrms'of a former pact. Canadian halibut vessels had

on, privileges in Alaska but not it the United States proper. These are now being extended to the United States ports. A survey made on the Pacific coast by 0 Department. Mr. MacNauflht "lil- lndlcated support of the treaty-

lune 5 To Be Federal Holiday

UITAWA, May 3 - (OP) -The Secretary of state Department to- night said that June 0. the day on which the King's Hrtlday is officially observed. will he declar- ed a Federal holiday. any a atel- ston will be maintained by the civil lerviee on that day.

Bui lacmf Comment Seen Signllicai

UITAWA, May D-(OP)-More spy-conscious than at any time since 1046. Canada's capital is watching to see if the Fuchs case is going to touch a match under international ioommunlst espion- age and whether the explosion will involve Canadians.

London press reports today said a new group of atomic spy ring arrests are coming and will in- volve at least one Canadian. One Ottawa official after another de- clined comment with a blanket reticence that in itself invited speculation.

Sign Of The Times

Meanwhile-s sign of the times s.nd the mood on Parliament Hill -the Commons defence committee was told Canada's military law has been redrafted with a. sharp eye on the prospect that in a pow war Canada would have to cope with an internal fifth column for the first time. The law applies to ser- vicemen.

Brig. W.' .J Lawson. Judge ad- vocate generai, nodded his head affirmatively after Maj.-Gen G. R. Pearkes V. C. (PC--Nanisino) held out this prospect as something entirely new for a wartime Cana- da. when the General sslsed if that had been considered. he sna- wered:

"We have had that very pressi- tnently in mind in the drafting of the new defence legislation. I sin satisfied that it now gives us suf- ficient authority in that regard."

A bill to consolidate all defence legislation in one act now is under committee study.

The offence of sedition - the advocating of the overthrow of the Government by force -could hsveAEeiTi”deili' wilF' under the old regulations. But in the re- draft the word "sedition" is add- ed to the section dealing with of- fences to make the regulations even more airtight and depart- mental law officers have said it stems from the cold war and is related to the menace of Com- munism.

The offence carries a punish- ment up to life imprisonment for servicemen. '

Telling Whole Story

The London reports of new spy arrests are based on indications that Dr. Klaus Fuchs. the Ger- man-born British atomic spy serv- ing is years. is talking for Am- crlcan and British police and that Harry Gold, recently arrest- ed in the U. S.. has said he'll tell what he knows. too. Gold is being held on charges of being a go-between for Fuchs and Rus-

sian agents. Canada'a Mounties are being kept informed of the develop-

menls in both countries and are cooperating in every way possible. All three now pool their anti- espionage knowledge in an effort to cope with the international ramifications of Soviet spy net- works.

The Fuchs and Gold cases have moved the international co-opera- tlon to a pitch not matched since Canada was in the thick of the 1040 spy prosecutions.

Plan To Tell All Vlheai On Open Marliei

OTTAWA, May 3 - (CP) .. Official quarters today confirmed that Canada tentatively has agreed to end her system of bila- teral wheat agreements with the United Kingdom. The latest four- gfar agreement. terminates July

Confirmation also was given to ii London dispstbh which said that Britain informed Canada that her wheat requirements from the doi- iar-area countries in the 1950-51 crop year will be between 100.- 000,000 and 120,000,000 bushels.

Decision to end the war-born bilateral pacts ties in with Can- ada's hope that this country will be able to sell all her available wheat output under the terms of lhe multilateral international wheat agreement. Canada has been the driving force behind this multi-lateral pact as a means of achieving relatively long-term market security for Canada's wheat production. '

Trsdc Minister Howe. who has returned from wheat talks with British officials in London last week, will ask Cabinet tomorrow for approval of the Anglo-Canto dian wheat decisions. The plans are expected to go through with- out a hitch.

Under the terms of the four- ycar international wheat pact - which. with the new season. goes into its second year of operation - a quota of more than 210,000,000 bushels has been set aside to be met by Canada.

Bids for this amount, in addi- lion to some 200,000,000 bushels set aside as quotas to be met lay other producing countries, will be received from the various 40-odd importing members within the 1950-51 price range of a minimum of 31.54 and a maximum of 01.99 (Canadian funds).

Expect No Diffieuiy

is indicated that .Canads.w.i!ti have little difficulty getting a good slice of the British wheat market. even without a firm con- tract for delivery of a fixed amount of wheat and flour at a

UITAWA. May 3 -10?) --The Commons defence coindttse. against spirited opposition. today gave the military policeman a new legal lever in his perennial war against aimed forces crime.

it approved this controversial new clause in the bill to con- solidate and modernize defence legislation in one act:

"Every person who has com- mitted. is found committing. is suspected of being about to com- mit or is suspected of or charged under this act with having com-

mitted a service offence may be placed under arrest." opposition members called it a "throwback." an opening

to "grudge" detcntions by pro- vast men and an unwarranted extension of provost powers to allow them to arrest men ”sus- pected of being about to corn- mit" a crime.

They were told the clause. largely copied from the criminal Code, is necessary and actually in the interest of the servicemen himself.

The committee, starting week of its long march the bill, also:

1. Struck a new snag over navy opposition to accepting complete uniformity of the law under services unification. This time it involved differences in the summary trial powers of common” officers in the navy as contrasted to the army and air force.

This country regarded murder as a 'itsrri-ble crime." yet drunken drivers killed five times as many persons as did murderers.

The problem was not being faced by parliament.
