Big Problem

By HAROLD MORRISON

OTTAWA, Aug. 15 - (cp) .. Government statisticians today forecast unprecendented grain

production for Canada this year, including record 656,000,000-bushel wheat and 295,333,000-bushel barley crops.

y But pinned to this rosy outlook is a gloomy prediction by grain experts that Canada simply hunt the storage space to handle such tremendous crops and community halls, skating rinks and auditoriums out west may have to be requisi- tioned to provide emergency stor- age.

LAUZON. Que. Aug. 10 - (cm - Some 2,500 workers of Davis Shipbuilding Co. and George T. Davie and Sons, Ltd. went out on strike tonight, cllmaxing more than five months negotiations for high- er wages.

The workers, members of the Canadian and Catholic Confedera- tion of Labor, took strike action at a mass membership meeting today outside the shipyards as the day shift ended. Night shift workers did not show up for work.

They are asking an hourly wage boost of 15 cents against a Quo- bec Arbitration Board recommend- ation of seven cents which both companies are following.

The clothing and hair was l)l1.lil'i-. ed from the body oi the deceased whiclf was found sitting in a chair. A partially burned apron which she is believed to have been wear- ing was found near the door lead- ing to the outside of the house and it is thought that when she dis- covered her clothing afire she had gone at least as far as the door and then returned to the chair in which she was found. Parts of the chair, including its back, showed evidence of being on fire and a hole had been burned in the floor covering beneath the chair.

The covers were off the stove, and some burnt paper lay in the fire box. The late Mlrs. Mallett is said to have recently suffered a stroke but was thought to have been in fairly good health when last been alive.

An investigation was carried out by the coroner, Dr. J. Austin Del- aney, and members of the Sum- merside detachment of the R. C. MP. and it was decided that no formal inqu t was necessary.

Britislf-TV”. Coverage Now Best In Vlorld

CARDIFF, Wales, Aug. 15 - (Reuters)-Brll.ain's national tele- vision coverage became the most complete in- the world tonight with the opening of a powerful new transmitting station near here.

Now four-fifths of the country's 50,000,000 people can see video -- provided they have sets -beamed to them by the state-controlled BBC.

That's an even bigger percentage than in the United States. where- commercial networks serve less than half the population.

Although television has not yet been officially inaugurated in Canada. many Canadian viewers near the border pick up 11.3. pro- grams on their sets.

Though U.5. TV n tworks have a small proportionate udience. they serve a geographical area far wid- or than that covered by the BBC. American viewers also have a choice of program. Britons have only one -- but it has no com- mercisls.

This Cariboo country fire - which has taken at least one life -is stabbing across a plateau covered with valuable stands of spruce and pine.

It is one of 141 fires being battled throughout the province by 1,500 men. Scores of fires have erupted on mountaintops and in inaccessible valleys.

Light, scattered showers pat- tered down at several points -today but it will take a soaking rain to drown the fires. There has been no heavy rainfall in B. C. for 23 days.

Even after they have been con- trolled, fires such as the Burns Lake outbreak usually smouldcr for weeks.

The biggest fire last year swept

25,000 to 30,000 acres on Van- couver Island, near Campbell River.

The known victim of the Burns Lake fire was bulldozer operator Howard Gordon. burned to death Wednesday.

In Search For Missing Plane

Thirteen aircraft yesterday cov- ered two-thirds of the "probabil- ity" area in search of a Harvard aircraft missing with two aboard from the Summerside R.C.A.F. station since last Monday. This area has already been searched at least five times without finding a clue to the plane's disappear- ance.

Aircraft yesterday in addition to the search on P.E.I. also combed

suit of bits of information still being received from the civilian population.

A few reports received yester- day from persons in Egmont Bay area on their observance of a low flying Harvard planel last Mon- day afternoon, led to a visit of this area by searchmastcr Squad- ron Leader .1. M. Wicken and Flight Lieut. T. M. Webster, who drove. by automobile to personally check on these reports and talk to others to see if further informa- tion could be obtained. Somehhad indeed seen a low flying aircraft which could have been the miss- ing plane, but nothing definite was learned as to time or a possible crash of this plane. However, as a result of the visit of the two search officials they will personal- ly fly over the area this morning to ascertain whether the type of woodland in that area would re- quire a more minute search.

Estimate 1,100 Families In Army Cam

F. . Miller, Olt.1vvn. National Defence Department official in charge of the expropriation, will hold public meetings in four com- munitlcs in or. near the area, starting Monday, to outline the procedure.

Meanwhile it was learned night that an estimated 1,100 families must get out, and a source close to the plan says this figure is "on the conservative side." Original expectation had been that about 750 families would be required to move.

Starting north of Welsford, 20 miles from Saint John, the camp takes in about 800 square miles on both sides of tho main high- way 2A to Fredericton, stopping A dozen miles below the capital city, according to an official army map of the area released tongiht.

Brand Latest Peace Move As Nothing New

Probe New leads H

WASHINGTON, Aug. 15 - (APv

Branding a fresh Communist peace move as "nothing new," the State Department today challenged the North Korean Reds to get. spe- cific about any proposals to end fhe Korean fighting.

The department challenge fol- lowed a. statement last night. by Kim Il Sung. premier of North Korea, that the Korean Reds "hope to get an armistice agreement wherein there is neither victor nor vanquished."

This remark, couched in a speech considered by some to be moderate in tone, attracted considerable at- tention on the chance that it might mean a more yielding attitude on the part of the Reds at Penman- gom, ...-....... M,-....-.

But the department statement said this government did not see anything new in the broadoa.st.,

And it challenged Kim to put any specific proposals he has for making peace in Korea into the armistice negotiations at Panmun- Jom.

Will Honor - Comrades Killed In Dieppe Raid

By JACK GOLDING

LONDON, Aug. 15 -- ICPl Some 200 Canadian army veterans of the Second World War will go to Brighton Sunday to honor com- rades killed in the Dieppe raid 10 years ago.

The Canadian contingent will be joined by 700 British Legion mem- bers in paying tribute to the men of the Dieppe raid. Some Cana- dian veterans will be men who ac- tually took part in the savage bat- tle which took some 3,000 Cana- dian lives.

Boy Injured In Stree; Accident

Eugene Doyle, 8-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Ambrose Doyle, 137 Pownal Street was struck by n. oar as he was playing with other children in the vicinity .of his home at 4.15 pm. yesterday.

The child is said to have dart- ed out from between parked cars in an attempt to cross the street as the moving car was passing. The driver of the car, assisted by Mr. Earl Norris who was passing at the time, rushed the injured child to the Charlottetown Hoo- pitol where Dr. Frank MacMtllan made an e Alon disclosing severe face injuries requiring six stitches, below the right eye, ac- cording to the child's father.

The report of the x-ray examina- tion will.not. be available untu

late today, meanwhile the lnjur- it

ed boy was reported as resting I

comfortably late last night.

He pointed out that last year's crop presented "very complex dif- ficulties but the amount handled

was an evidence of their efficiency. Handling records were made last year in spite of difficulties."

But the Bureau of Statistics estimate today was for a wheat crop more than 100,000,000 bushels higher than last year's 552,000,- 000-bushei harvest and about 89,- 000,000 bushels greater than the previous peak of 567,000,000 bushels in 1028.

Anything Can Happen

The Bureau and Mr. Mllncr emphasized, however, that any- thing can happen to change the picture. A change in weather could cut the estimate drastically. Several more weeks of warm weather will be needed to ensure ample supplies of high-quality wheat.

Prospects of a record wheat crop likely will have international re- percussions. Canada, along with the,.I.lnited.Staies. has, been prass-' ing for a higher wheat.-price ceil- ing under a new international wheat agreement currently under negotiation. ,

The United Kingdom and other importing countries of the current. four-year international agreement which runs out July 31, 1953. are strongly opposing such a. move. Forecasts of peak crops in Can- ada as well as the U.S. may bol- ster their drive to keep prices from climbing.
