NEW YORK (AP) — Arthur Godfrey is in a hospital being prepared for an operation sched- uled for Thursday.

Lom Beaverbrook’s Daily Ex- press, which long has objected to the rearming of Germany, has been particularly bitter in edit- orials dealing with Adenauer’s regime.
Newspapers Tuesday recalled it was not Eccles’ first boner. His reference to the Queen at the time of the Coronation as his “leading lady” stil rankles ia many minds.

The CNR yielded some money ~—amount \ unspecified—in wages on so - called “arbitraries,” a sticking point in the late stagés of negotiation.
Both sides professed them- selves happy with the outcome, stage-managed by Labor Minister Starr, and Canadian chief W. E. Gamble of the union said he is calling off the scheduled walkout immediately.
The strike of 3,750 firemen had been set for 12:01 a.m. Friday local time across the country.
Announcement that the strike was being called off was made by Mr. Starr late Tuesday night after two days of conferences, which he initiated, between heads of the CNR and the Canadian section of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Engine- men (CLC).
Charge
By THOMAS P. WHITNEY
NEW YORK (AP)—Field Mar- shal Viscount Montgomery said Tuesday night American leader- ship of the free world under Pres- ident Eisenhower is “suspect.” He said Britain is corfifig for- ward to supply what he described as the consistency needed by the Western alliance. In an hour-long filmed broad- cast prepared for CBS, the out- spoken British war hero and com- mander said American leaders are “people who are not very well” and this is ‘‘no good’’—that U.S. leadership has perhaps slipped a bit.
In this reference to poor health, he named directly Eisenhower, State Secretary Christian Herter and former secretary Dulles. LACK OF DECISION
Declared Montgomery: “Now, of course, after the war, the lead- ership of the free world passed to the United States. Well, I think that history is going to say that the United States’ leadership has been very intermittent in its pul- sations—not been as good as it might be. Perhaps there’s been a lack of decision in the top level.
“Anyhow, it’s—I think you’ve got to admit the fact, rightly or wrongly, that American leader- ship, of recent years, has been rather suspect, and if—why it’s been rather suspect, you'd prob- ably know better than I would.
“And I believe that somebody has got to come forward now and supply the consistency—be a sort of moral broker. And that’s what I think Macmillan is doing. . . .”

STAY OUT OF POLITICS
Montgomery suggested that sol- diers should stay out of politica ~ because “‘the same man can’t de both” and he attacked the Eisen- hower position that he will nol go to a summit conference unless he is certain something will coms of it.
He also disagreed with Eisen hower’s statement that it would be illogical to fight a ground war over Berlin. Montgomery indi- cated he believes this is precisely the kind of war the Russians
