f ,ti00,000 in June last year, the Bureau of Statistics reported to- day. The 1952 surplus was the big- since the SllM.000,000 surplus in the first half of T9-id.

Completing its half-year estim- ates, the bureau placed total ex- ports at a peak of 82.114.700.000, 1 ghln from 31.762.600.000 in the first half of 19.51 and more than five times greater than the pre-war to- totaltal of 5392,-H)0,000 in 1938.

The 1952 exports record was ach- ieved by a l7-per-cent boost in vol- umc and a 2.5-per-cent gain price. Volume of exports and imports was higher in the first six months than any similar period since the end of the Second World War.

The dollar value of imports slip. ped slightly in the half year to ti.- 0.30.Zif)fl.lifl0 from the peak of s2.itlL'.- -ifi().()00. But imports were higher than the sl.-153,l00.(l00 in 1950 and' about six times greater than the &3.'i6.7fJ0,()(l0 in pre-war 1938.

The bureau estimated that though volume of imports increas- ed by two per cent, prices slipped by nine per cent.

The biggest single factor in shap- ing the surplus was a sharp boost in sales to the United Kingdom. while imports slid. Exports in the six months jumped to s.'lll6.20ll.(lf)ii from s254.000,0(l0 in the previous year. Imports slid to slfil.-fllO.f)ilU from s224.60fi,ilfi(l.

Trade with the United states. Canada's top oustomer, remained almost unchanged from 1951 - and so did the deficit. Exports edged iihcud slightly to sl,ll3.300.i9llU from si.1llil.i'l(iu,f)fifI while imports cased to Si.457.ll0(l.0f)fl from Sl.47l.l0l),0U().

Three men in the aircraft, own- ed by Rivcrton Airways. were in- jurcd. Six other occupants escaped injury. ,

While one passenger dubbed blood from Pilot Bob shinnie'.s in- jured eye and others struggled to subdue a panic-stricken compan- ion. Shinnie nursed the plane over Riverton with one pontoon dangling from an earlier mishap. The pas- sengers tosscd baggage, seats and gasoline drums overboard to lessen the weight.

Then Shinnie brought the plane in on its one good- pontoon. The aircraft overturned and broke in halves when it hit.

The plane was returning to Riv- egton from Norway House with construction workers aboard.

Shlnnie said he hadn't tried to land the crippled aircraft on water because he feared he and his pas- sengers would be drowned.

REVEALS FIVE NEW P.O.W. CAMP INCIDENTS

Britain Claims

LONDON, Aug. 2'1 -(Wednes. dliyi--(AP)-The Gloster Britain's new jet flying triangle. was described officially today as faster than sound and "the most. pcffecilvn fighter in the world.”

An announcement authorized by the R.A.l'. said the strange-looking planc, packed with secret radar gear for high speed combat miles above the earth, is alone in its class.

The security veil was partly lift-

ed from the fighter. with official lnpprnval, by Percy Cirabbc, manag- Illll! director of the Gloster Com- ipuny wiiicli developed it. The Javelin is the world's first llltiil-t?l'lI.!ll'led fighter of the delta, or triangle, wing design. With its complicated radar equipment it can operhtc in any weather, day or night.

The plane is 57 feet long and has ,9. wing span of 52 feet. The tip of ;its tail stands 17 feet from the ground.

Although the Javelin can fly jfast:-r than sound--660 miles an ltUlll' at sea level-it is ”more

mialrocilirrabie and docile at lower ispceds than any fighter since the biplane era.” Grabbe said.

It is specifically designed, he lcnntinucd, to fight off jet bomb- ers.
