-'I‘HE FIRST ISSUE of Hol- man's staff paper is off the press ITIDIPIESS as yet, but probably not for long, as there is a five dollar prize for the person who suggests the name that is finally chosen. The first issue consists of six pages attractively arranged and a-num- her of cartoons. On the front page h a large photograph of the late J’. Lciioy Holman, general manager of lhP firm who died in Florida on March 23rd. A "Message from the Management" on the

age places them, firmly behind

We are convinced that n well run and properly edited “staff paper" will hind us closer into a group. which, although it will be no ‘great big happy family’ wIll- understand more readily the difficulties and rials. under which each individual end department works."

There was an almost immediate poy-off. The Communists lost the Italian election. No one bad known how that election would tally. .

_Now'Pfu.l Hoffmlh. director of the Economic Cooperation Ad- ministration, tells Congress the Communistshave lost ground in every ‘European ration where there is o. free vote.

The Marshall Plan has ‘been aimed at several. -.political hopes. Death of Communist strength in Europe has been one. Another hope -perhaps more of s dream. but far in the future in any event-has been a merger of European states into one nation.

Such o. merger was first hinted in the speech which set off the Il-rshsll. Plea, mode in June 194'! at Harvard by the then secretary of state. George C. Marshall. Mar- shall offered Alznerlcan loans and grants to Europe if it would co- operate to help itself. '

It took Europe u leaders exactly 11 days after Marshall's speech to meet the challenge. Foreign Min- ister Ihneat Bevin of Britain w-ent to Paris to talk over with the French prtmlcr OiT the day, Paul Ralrnadler, what Europeans could do.-

Out of Bevin! trip grew the 16- natlon Organization of European Economic Co-operation. In that group western Europeans put their cards on the table: what they could produce and sell, what they would

need from each other and from the New World. . 14st summer that led. io an

American dornand that the Europ- eans work out the entire plan through 1952. when U.S. aid is to end.

Signficnnt Move

Last month the 0.E.E.C. set up an executive committee to be staff- ed with men of cabinet rank and hence with authority. Its purpose is to tie together Europe's future during the Marshall Plan period and pbrhaps even after that. Carlo sforze, Italy's elder statesman. commented that ‘this could be the start of a true European govern- mum.

U. S. Secretary of State Dean Acheson made another over-all political estimate cf the Marshall Plan when the told Congress the mere announceme ‘ of American aid to Europe had forced Moscow to reveal its hand. y

He said "the Red's true aims csmeout la the open wheln they were forced to oppose a. plan aim- ed st improving the lot of Europ- eans." The Russians not only re- fused to jclnin the Marshall Plan but turned their chief propaganda agency (the Colninfcrm) against it.

What help has American aid aci- ually been so far?

Acheson told Congress it 11M “put an end to black markets. an end to hungenlt has given greater security and it has given hope to sEuropch youth." "

Figures show that Europeans are eating a. few more calories each day than they did just after the war. Production rates have Jumped all over the continent. Britain leads the march. turning. out more tha she did before the war. But there is still unemployment in Austria. Italy and Greece.

None of the nations could yet stay fed and at work without American help, Europe will be off the hook only when all the nations ue Wu‘ ing enough to foot their foreis" bills. Tile 0211.0. has said the?» won't be true even in 1&3.

A destructive fire occurred at Port Hill on Wednesday afternoon when the residence ofMr. Donald Miller was burned to the ground.

The fire broke out about one thirty in the afternoon and the cause has not beans determined. although-it is Jurmlsed that it was started by a. spark from the housuchlmncy. Mr. Miller had just left home to go to his ta- ther's when he saw the neighbors hurrying to s. home. By the time he reac, ed his house again the fire had made ouch headway that it was impossible to save it. although all the furniture was saved.

The fire brigade from Tyne Val- ley responded to the call and aided by neighbor. of MrfMlllar were able to prevent the fire from spreading to any of the adjoining buildings. olfhoughm high wind was blowing at the time. ‘

It; was learned last night that the loss was onlypartially covered by insurancp and as Mr. Miller had recently renovated the interior of his home, the loss was consider able. Mr.‘ Mililfr could not be ~00!- tactcd last evening and his fa- ther could. not estimate what the loss would be.—S.

There is an old saying, "Out of sight, out of mind", but in apple orchard/l the rootstock, although out of sight, should be chosen with greet consideration. The rootsicck is the; foundation of a tree, and a weak foundation will lead to trouble later on, reports‘ D.S. Blair and 5.1-1. Nelson, Division of Hort- iculture. Central Iixperinlental Farm, Ottawa.

Rnotstocks may be raised from seed or obtained vegetatively from specially grown stools. When grown by ‘the stooltng method, tbs; stocks are essentially refer- red to as a clone. A clonal root- stock ls desirable because it is more uniform In tree perform- ance.

It ls now contended that the only permanent solution to a sot- isfactory rootstock for commercial orchards in Canada. particularly those located in the colder re- gions, is a hardy clonal stock. With work within the hardy rootstocks, this objective in mind. selection in an endeavour to obtain one that will stool readily, has been underway for sOme twenty-five years at Ottawa. '

Ou-t of these investigations has emerged a. clone known as‘ Malus robusta/No. 5 which in a hardiness test at Ottawa proved to be ex- tremely hardy and under field conditions has shown a "high de- gree of resistance to, collanrot. It stools » ready, yielding 70,000 rooted shoots ‘per acre. At Ottawa. the fruiting performance of Mc- Intosh. Tiled Melba. and Lsnflam on this stock over the past four years has been fully satisfactory. To data no indication of incom- patibility between Malus robusta No. 5 and the colrmcrcial varieties has been observed. This stock is now being "released to the nurs. el-y trade. . - ~
