OTTAWA. (CP) - The Witness of Jehovah won a major. battle against Quebec authorities in the Supreme Court of Canada Tues- day. The court ruled. in a 5-4 decision. that the Witnesses may distribute religious pamphlets on city streets without restriction.

Upholding freedom of religion. Canada's highest court quashed the judgments of Quebec lower courts. It granted the appeal of witness evangelist Laurier Sau- mur of Quebec, convicted in 1946 on a charge of distributing tracts on Quebec streets without a police permit. contrary to a city by- law.

The court ordered the city. its officers and .agents to stop interfering with the evangelist in any way in distribution of re- ligious in formation.

c. P. n., Quebec Firms Obiect To Rates Plan

TransporTBd. - Continues To Hear llepresegiions

OTTAWA. (CP) - Key parts of the Board of Transport Cqmmls- sionors' freight rate equalization program were challenged Tues- day by the Canadian Pacific Rail- way and Quebec business organ- izations.

Their objections were register- ed as the board continued receiv- ing representations on its partial equalization plan proposed to go into effect Jan. 1. 1955. The study is being made under a 1951 par- liamentary order to level rates among regions.

Both the CPR. and the Quebec business bodies took exception to the board's order for the elimina- tion of "a series of "blanket" rates between western points and cent- res in a big triangle bounded by Montreal, Windsor and Sudbury.

.The basic rates on traffic into and out of the triangle are the same for all points in it.

Mile-For-Mile llasia

The board decided to eliminate the group rates on the theory that freight tolls should. as far as pos- sible, be on a mile-for-mile basis.

The business organizations. the Montreal district and Quebec province chambers of commerce and the Quebec City Board of Trade. questioned the power of the board to eliminate the blanket tolls.

They contended the rates are ”competitiive" - depressed to meet

Revolutionary New Jet Plane Announced By U.K.

LONDON. (AP)-Britain announ- ced a revolutionary new Jet plane Tuesday. The designers claim it will change the whole shape and perforrrtrmce of future craft. Instead of the conventional ail- erons and elevators to control flight, the twin-Jet plane has ro- tating tlps set at the end of its swept back wings.

Short Brothers and Harland. Limited, the manufacturers. said:

''It is expected that the rotating wing-tip controls will be markedly superior to flap-type controls at transonic speeds and will make the aircraft more manoeuvrable at high altitudes.”

The plane itself. known as the Sherpa Jet Research. is not capable of high speeds. but the manufac- turers claimed:

Foreign Office Siaiemeni is Issued

By RANALD MACLURKIN

LONDON. (Reuters) - Britain announced Tuesday night she has sent warships and troops lo the leftist-dominated colony of British Guiana to preserve peace and safety in the event of a communist take-over. which would "lead to bloodshed."

A short statement issued by the colonial office said lhe decision to send troops to the colony had been discussed previously at cabinet meetings.

No Threats Made

No mention was made of flus- pending the colony's new constitu- tion under which the leftist Peo- ple's Progressive Party swept into power last April. and the state- ment made no threat to dismiss the left-wing ministers.

”It is quite evident that the in- trigues of Communists and their associates, some in ministerial posts, threaten the welfare and good administration of the colony.” it mid.

"If these processes were to con- tinue unchecked an attempt might be made, by methods which are familiar to some other parts of the world. to set up a Communist- Dominated state.

"This would lead in bloodshed. In view of the latest develop- ments. Her Majesty's government have found it necessary to send naval and military forces to Georgetown the colony's capital with the utmost dispatch in order to preserve peace and the safety of all classes."

"Any reinforcements that may be required will be sent, from the United Kingdom." it concluded.

Breaks Blackout

The 150 - word announcement broke it four-day security blackout reminiscent ofiwartime. British of- ficials made no previous comment on reports that the cruiser Superb. with 500 Welch Fusiliers aboard. was heading fcr the South Ameri- can colony.

ATLANTIC CITY. N. J.. (A?)- President Eisenhower warned a divided world Tuesday to put the atom to constructive use. or risk H-bomb suicide with "erasure of cities. windrows of unidentifiable dead."

He blamed soviet Russia for a nuclear arms race. in which the free world must stockpile A-bombs and H-bombs "assuring us reason- able safety from attack."

Discuss Threat

Said the president of the threat of atomic warfare:

"in its wake we see only sudden and mass desti'uction...the pos- sible doom of every nation and society. :

"This horror must not be.

"This titanic force must be re- duced to the fruitful service of mankind. If it is in the power of our leaders, with God's help. it will be done.

”This can come to pass only as one of the results of shaping a firm and just and durable peace"

some 5.000 listeners heard Eisen- hower spell out the world's atomic future in solemn alternatives. They were members of the United Church women of the National Council of Churches of Christ in the U. S. A. meeting in Atlantic City.
