Plans Dohilnion Tour To Boost Recruiting Effort

OTTAWA. May 25 -(CF) - Brig. Geoffrey Walsh. C.B.E., DS. 0.. is expected to cross Canada. soon to try to stimulate recruiting for the 27th Bri ade Group he has been named o prepare for service in Europe or elsewhere. It has about 5.000 men now but needs more than twice that num- her.

The 41-year-old engineer from Brantford land St. Catharines. Ont., was appointed today to com- mand the formation. With him were named four other regular force officers to command the largest component units-the three infantry battalions and the artil- lery regiment.

V. C. Winner Returns

Feature of all five appoint- ments was the return of Lt.-Col. John K. Maliony. 39. V.C. of New Westminster. B.C.. to the role of an infantryman. He hasn't been with an infantry unit since he won the VC. in Italy seven years ago yesterday as a company com- mander with the Westminster Regiment.

The original reason for his de- parture from his unit was the un- written army rule that a V.C. can't fight iognln. lie even tried going A.W.l.. in Italy to get brick to the Weslminstcrs but it didn't work and his desires to Join the real soldiers-the infantry-have never been fulfilled in the seven years since.

Now he's back. Whether he would be allowed to command his L-nit-the so-called lst Canadian Infantry Battalion-if it got into action remains to be seen. Defence officlalswlll cross that bridge when they'comc to it.

1. The United Nations siiould have available an armed force capable of taking to the field any- where at anytime that aggression occurs.

2. It would be unwise to take steps to drive Russia out of the United Nations. He fal:- nothing should be done to destroy the U. N.'s universal character.

3. The Chinese Government of China will not be allowed to "shoot" its way into ” ship in the United Nations.

4. The lxxterniil Affairs Depart-

"A lot of people seem to be talk- lnz about the Senate vacancy in Prince Edward Island," he .said ”but as far as I know. no one has done anything about it."

On the subject of his future plans the Premier merely said he would certainly return to Chair- lottetown by Thursday next, af- ter short visits to Toronto and Boston.

Hint First Tests Of Hydrogen Bomb Held In Eniwetok Area

By Frank R. Carey

WASHINGTON. May 25 -(API -United ,States atomic chiefs threw out D dramatic hint today that the first tests of some kind of hydrogen bomb-perhaps the forerunner of I trua "super bomb" -have Just been successfully com- pleted. .

The announcement. perhaps foreshadowing American p session of the world's most powerful and destructuva weapon. said:

"A program of atomic weapons test; has been successfully carried out" at the super-secret Enlwetok proving grounds in the Pacific.

Then came the 10 key words:

The test program included ex- periments contributed to ther- monuclear weapons research.” l

"'l'hermonuclear weapons" meansl hydrogen bombs. 1

The Atomic Energy commission and the Defence Department in in Joint. guardediy-worded announce- ment. did not state that an H- bomb had been developed and detonated during the tests-which were reported to have cost sioo,- 000.000 and involved thousands of personnel.

It said President Truman had been notified of the success of the tests.

Today's annouiieemrnt. of new blasts of A-bombs also seemed to hint at:

1. Development of new in- formation of use in civil de- fence against ntomlc Illack. including information on the design of building best suited to withstand the effects of ter- rific blast.

2. The possible development. of a new technique of in pping atomic bombs from airplanes --ooncelvablyv involving the use of smaller planes than the 3.29: which dropped the bombs on Hiroshima and Nagas l and perhaps even in- volving a low-flying hlt-snd- run method for striking at ground troops in a small area. These deductions appear reason-

abla on the basis of the an ounce- ment that the nilwetok tests in- cluded comprehensive measure- mont of blast and heat effects on "structures. aircraft and various other items.”

Associated Press correspondent Nat Polowetzky reported from U. 5. Eighth Army headquarters that

some Chinese are fighting suicidal

rear-guard battles in efforts to keep open a six-mils escape route near parallel 38 on the east-cen- tral front.

Chinese prisoners themselves re- ported many Reds are committing suicide deliberately rather than face continued Allied bombing or risk being shot by their own offic- ers for retreating.

The heaviest fighting apparent- ly was on the Hangye-Inje road on the east central front. about 25 air miles inland from the east coast. United Nations armored col- umns alrcady were four -miles in- side Red Korea in that sector.

60,000 Chinese Threatened

The Allies were battling to cut off the retreat of an estimated two Chinese amiy corps. about 00.000 men. Fifth Air Force planes and Allied artillery pounded the es- cape route incessantly.

In addition to smashing across parallel 38 in the mic area, United Nations tank-infantry learns Fri- day crossed the old political bound- ary ln at least two other places.

Against spotty resistance. Allied columns thrust into Red Korea northwest of Chunchon, 45 miles northeast of Seoul. and northeast of Uljongbu, which is l1 miles north of the old Korean capital.

Field dispatches said those two columns withdrew at dusk Friday to the advancing main Allied line.

Chinese In Full 1'-light

Correspondent Polowetzlsy said the Chinese made were clogging escape routes with their pack ani- mals. artillery pieces and whatever other equipment they could sal- vage from the steadily advancing allies.

TEfiRAN, Iran. May 25-(AP) -I-n an emotion-packed press conference punctuated by spells of weeping, Premier Mohammetl Mossadegh said today Iran will "fight to the end" for oil nation- alizalion.

He warned that any at- tempt by Britsln or any other country to block his

Government's move to take

over Iran's vast oil resources

--including those held by the

British - owned Anglo-Iranian

Oil Company - "will soon

bring the entire free world to

the brink of disaster."

Britain announced she is send- ing the trouble-shooting 16fl'i Pnrachule Brigade Group of 4.- 000 mcn to Cyprus-within easy

striking distance of Iran - to strengthen her Mediterranean garrison.

The aged. wealthy Mossndegii broke down in tears when he told reporters of the plight of lranls 15.000000 hungry and ill- clnd people, living admlst a trons- ure of oil. Two aides supported him by the arms as he sobblngly finished his statement.

It was Mossude1;h's first press Conference since he became Pre- micr April 30. At the end, he re- turned to the seclusion of his offices in the Parliament Bulld- lngs. wherc he lacked himself l'l 10 days ago to guard against threats of assassination.

In the afternoon the frail Pru- mier was reported ill with a high temperature from the effects of his talk to the newspaper men. But he received British Ambassa- dor Sir Francis M. Shepherd for what was described as an "infor- mnl exchange of views."

(YPFAWA. May 25 ..(CP) Civil defence will not be built up at the expense of the armed forces. Health Minister Martin told the Commons today.

Replying to Opposition claims that the Government is not put- ting enough into civilian defence. he said the armed forces make up the primary defence effort and civil and defence cannot be allow- ed to prejudice the inllllnry pro- gram.

Mr. Martin. who took charge of civil defence last winter. said there must be no "needless diversion of energy" from the fighting forces.

The Minister spoke during a continuation of the defence debate after Opposition speakers had contended the Government is not providing enough funds to municipalities to enab'e them to do their job in protecting the civ- ilian population.
