’Hams’ To Get Special Plates

Prince Edward Island’s “ham” radio operators will receive spe- cial licence plates for their ve- hicles when the 1959 issue makes its appearance in the province in the new year.

The special plate is primarily designed as a civic defence pre- caution to permit instant identifi- cation of operators in case of emergency so that they may be called into service immediately when the occasion arises.

One of the plates will be on the personal car of Lieutenant Gov- ernor F. Walter Hyndman, an ardent operator. ‘

The practice of issuing special plates to these radio operators is followed in about 30 of the United States and has recently being brought into use in New Bruns- wick and’Nova Scotia. ‘

Death Toll In Canada Reaches 50

Canada’s accidental death toll climbed to 50 Sunday night as the four - day Christmas holiday period neared its close. ‘ -

A Canadian Press survey cov- ering the period from noon last Wednesday showed that traffic accidents accounted for 36 of the fatalities.

There were five deaths by fire, two drownings and seven from miscellaneous causes, including one in a crashofa light plane in Labrador. ,

The highest toll was in Ontario, with 18 deaths—five in traffic mishaps. The other provinces (traffic deaths in brackets): Brit- ish Columbia 9 (6), Alberta 2 (2), Saskatchewan 1 (1), Manitoba 7 (7), Quebec 7 (5), New Brunswick 2 (2). Nova Scotia 3 (3), New- foundland 1.

The toll mounted against the background of a Canadian High- way Safety Conference forecast of 80 traffic deaths alon in the period from Dec. 24 to Jan. 1.

Last year there were 53 acci- dental deaths during a shorter Christmas season. 38 in highway crashes.

PM Approves Action On Currencies

W'INNIPEG (CPl—Prime Min- ister Diefeubaker says any action to “lift the boom” on world trade is to be commended.

He was commenting Saturday on moved by Britain, France, West Germany and other Europ- ean countries to ease restrictions on convertability of their curren- cies.

“Freer trade steps now taken will mean an expanding world trade," he said. “Insofar as the United Kingdom is concerned the action constitutes a major step forward and a follow up to action taken at the Commonwealth eco- nomic conference in Montreal."

The prime minister said that at the Commonwealth conference “certain discriminatory practises were demobilized and this started a trend."

U.S. Traffic Fatalities Top 500 Mark

CHICAGO (CP) ~ The home- ward rush of Christmas vacation— ers Sunday night sent the United States highway death toll surging toward a pre-holiday estimate of 620

At 9 pm. AST the figure stood at 531 traffic deaths, 89 in fires and 83 from miscellaneous causes for a total of 703 fatalities.

Millions of autos jammed roads and generally good weather in vited high speeds, one of the major factors in the bloody high- way slaughter.

In a statement, the National Safety Council said, "only the greatest care by motorists could hold the death toll down to our estimates.”

ESCAPE RECORD?

But it appeared then that the United States was escaping any mortality record. This possibility had been posed by an unusually heavy toll of casualties at the start of the four-day period when started at 6 pm? local time Dec. 24.

Safety officials said only un- usual slaughter on the highways during the weekend’s closing hours would bring the toll close to the all-time record of 706 traf- fic deaths set in the four-day 1956 Christmas holiday.

The National Safety Council predicted before the holiday that the auto death toll would be 620 for the 1024hour period up to mid- night Sunday, local time. This Would be the second highest hol- iday traffic toll on record.

Solution To Friction In Museum Near

OTTAWA (CE—National Re- sources Minister Hamilton said Sunday night the government is close to a solution to internal fric- tion within the human history branch of the National Museum of Canada.

He indicated the friction was among certain members of the branch and that it was a matter of personalities rather than poll- tics.

“We have been studying the situation at the museum for some months,” he said in an interview. “My objective is to protect the museum and to ensure that its work is not interfered with.”

He-would not elaborate on the

he say whether changes are in prospect among museum person- nel as a result of the investiga- tion.

R. G. Robertson, deputy re- sources minister, had confirmed earlier that an investigation into reports of internal friction has been in progress since October.

The National Museum is a branch of the Department of Northern Affairs and National Resources. '

In Montreal, Dr. Jacques Rous- seau, director of the human his- tory branch, said the friction dates back 40 years before his appointment two years ago. One of the reasons for his appoint- ment had been to settle it.’

Famous Canadian Artist Dies

TORONTO (CIP)—John David Kelly. one of Canada's most fa- mous artists whose paintings of important C a n a d i a n histori- cal events have been known to generations of Canadians, died in hospital Saturday after a two. weeks illness. He was 98.

Mr. Kelly was an artist with the lithographing firm of Rolph- ClarkStone Limited when he re- tired in 1935 after 71 years of painting. His works were in con- stant demand for calendars and reproduction for schools, banks, offices and text books.

on his retirement he donated his art studio and collection of rare reference books to the fir-m to assist other company artists.

Mr. Kelly’s meticulous care for detail earned him the name of Mr. Accuracy among other Cana- dian artists.

Put Emphasis On Research Not Gadgets

WASHINGTON (AP) — Presi— dent Eisenhower‘s scientific ad- visers Saturday suggested more emphasis on broad research, less on gadget-making.

The advisory committee of sci-

paying about half the bills for all US research and development— that too much attention to mech- anical things could lead to “an impoverished science and a sec- ond-rate technology."

The group, headed by special presidential assistant James R. Killian Jr., said it was not pic- turing present U.S. science as cursed with fatal flaws or defic- iencies. .

In scope and depth, this science leads the world, the scientist said —-“but continued leadership in science will require a more dili< gent and far-sighted effort on the part of government.”

Eisenhower made public the 12,000aword report on “strength eninxg American science.”

"He praised it for importance and timeliness and said he is carrying out immediately one of the committee’s recommenda- tions.

This is for creation of h new federal council for science and technology to (\1) achieve better planning of the scientific pro— grams supported by various gov- ernment departments and (2) re- duced duplication.
