"PICKUP ON SOUTH STREET" CAPITOL THEATRE, SUMMER- SIDE -The powerful assault and bat- tery that builds the action of Twentieth Century-I-'ox's "Pickup on South Street:” starring Richard widmark. Jean Peters and Thelma Ritter. sent the unusual spy drama off to a lusty start at the Capitol

Theatre.

The film has no holds barred when it comes to developing its story about small-time pick- pockets. stociies and their girls involved on the side of the I".B.I. to uncover a Cnminunist spy ring, and the refreshing directness of its delivery plus the

obvious gusto of its performers has:

created is type of entertainment too long absent from the screen. For this reviewer the Jules Schermer-Samuel Fuller melodrama ranks tops for this year's offerings in realism. action and unusual story line. having the honesty and sim- plicity that made another spy story, "House on 02nd Street," great.

Victoria Canadian legion Banquet

-The annual banquet of the Victoria branch of the Canadian- Loglon was held at Leaiands, the home of Mr. R"ld Mrs. Keith Bos- well, on Saturday evening when ex-service men and their ulvas from Victoria. Crapaud, Char- lottetown, and Summerside. en- joyed a delicious turkey dinner served by the members of the Ladies Auxiliary of the branch.

Grace was said by Mr Boswell. and a two-minute silence was ob- served by those present in mem- ory of their late comrade, Clayton C. Miller.

Folloiririag the banquet brief re- marks were made by several of the"

Repeal of a law requiring the government to favor American; vessels in shipments of govern- ment-owned or government-fin- anced cargoes and substitution of more direct subsidies.

While the commission didn't put. it into the form of an actual re-5 commendation because it was out- side its field of inquiry. the report spoke out strongly against "in-- flexlblc price supports or fixedt prices” for the American farmer:

Urges Review

Chairman Randall took a copy of the report to the White House Saturday. The President immedi- ately sent copies to various de- partments and agencies urging them to review it intensively "as a first step in the formation of a unified administration program to be submitted to the Congress for its attention during the cur- rent session."

"I am confident." the President said in a memorandum, "that, on the basis of the report. it will be possible to develop a program that will advance the best inter- ests both of the United States and of the free world."

senator Prescott Bush (Rm.- Connt, a commission member who did not offer a single dinent, de- scribed the report as "a moderate s.pproe,oh" which could increase imports. eventually eii.mine.te for- eign aid. and benefit the American economy.

ilar concessions. On the basis of information from the taril-i com- misslon, it said, he should be per- mitted to reduce by one half the 1045 rates on products which have been imported in negligible amounts or not at all.

Chop Tiriffs

Within the framework of general negotiations, the report recom- mended the president should b: authorized to chop all tariff rates to as low as 50 per centcf the. value of the imports, by stages over three years. l

This proposal. a commission of-, ficial said. could supersede the other tariff . mdat.ions- those relating to the 15-per-cent slash and a 50-par-cent reduction! for goods not now coming in or ini- ported only in small amounts.

Reed and Simpson protested that if the tariff proposals arepcan-led out it would be "at the expense of American induatriu, American workers, and American agricul- ture."

The commission. in recommend- ing extension of the president's power to negotiate longer-temi trade agreements, said that in past, limitations have created an "aura of lntltablilty” in U. S. trade policy. It said the president should have freedom to negotiate trade treaties remaining in force at least three years.

The report discussed means of encouraging flaw of U. S. capital abroad. It said the U. S, should strive to increase American invest- ment in foreign countries and thus "assist in attaining U. S. foreign Policy objectives through strength- ening the econonw of the free world and reduce the burden of military aid by increasing produc- tivity abroad."

Dlscneaee Agriculture

In discussing agriculture insofar as it relates to foreign trade. the commission said "the International wheat Agreement has convn-ibuted little to the solution of wheat prob- lems of the U. S. and (he world at

uge.

It says the IWA. under which such countries as the U. 8., Can- ada. and Australia contract to sell whest. to iinportina nations at prices which in recent year: hacve been below the free market price. has had the effect of stimulating our-production in the U. s..u.u abroad and has tended toobetruct, rather than facilitate, normal re- adjustanmts of U.

Credit Union Film Made In : Hollywood To Be Shown In Slside

-"King's X", a half-hour dy- namlc credit union story filmed in Hollywood. will have its first public presentation on Prince Ed- ward Island at the Capitol The- atre ln Summerside. as part. of the regular program on Monday and Tuesday evening.

In an interesting and unusual way, "King's X" shows how credit unions are serving the people of Canada. It is a portrayal of the services offered by the credit un- ions to their members.

The term "King's X" came into use in early English history when men were thrown into prison for debt. The king's soldiers marched through the streets. forced entry into the homes of debtors and often dragged the householder off to a debtors' prison. However. if representatives of the king had placed an "X" on the door of the house. accompanied by the king's

l'S'side Midgets. Juveniles To Enter Playoffs

The following Summerside Mid- gets have been picked on the. team to represent the town in the-' Island play-offs, and they must! get their birth certificates in to Jimmie Hogan by noon today in order to be eligible to play: Bil- lie Dawson. Albert Cody. Law- rence DesRoches. Ronnie Durant. Deane Cause. Gerald MacLean.: Donnie Riirceil. David Silliphant,i Lionel I-Iaughn. Edward Arsenault. Carl Delaney, Robert Phillips. Robert Kenny.

coat of arms, that home was im- mune. None dared enter. Thus a debtor might be protected by the king's "X".

In the film the credit union is likened to the "King's X" of mod- ern people, protecting against persecution because of indebted- ness. Part of the story so capably told in the film "King's X" con- cerns a young couple who become financially involved and are extri- cated by the credit union. It ef- fectively demonstrates the opera- tion and function of a credit un- ion, and tells how the Credit Un- ion National Association's (CUNAl services to its members are com- parable to this "X" protecting them from the hazards of debt and financial failure.

The members are encouraged to save against the time when it may be necessary to borrow for some

unexpected emergency. This Holly-

wood production traces the history nnd modern use of credit unions. "King's X" makes the point that the ordinary worker can help himself by carefully analyzing his financial problems and consulting with his credit union for help. This exceptional picture which cost nearly 5100.000 to produce. was written to give all credit lin- ion members a better understand- ing of the credit union movement. and to show non-members tho 0-)- portunities available to them

through credit union pnrtlClpaii0fl.:

In Prince Edward Island, there are at present 57 credit unions with a combined mnmbi-rsh':p of approximately 10,000 members, and assets of more than S1 million,

Since the inception of the credit union movement in Prince l"'.d- ward Island in 1936. about 35 U2 million has been loaned by credit unions to their members in this Province.

The credit union movement which orfiginnted in Germany In 1848. began to develop on the North American continent in Can- ada before the turn of the ren- iury. and spread Into the Unitnd Stet:-s in 1909. its rate of growth is now in excess of 2000 new un- ions each year. In the United States. Canada. and the Carrlhenn nrea there are now more than 18.000 credit unions with a mom- bershin of approximately 9 mil- lion members with total assets of 32 V4 billion.-S.

restrictive devices such as inflex-I

ibie price-support program which result in fixed prices. open or concealed export subsidies, import quotas at home and abroad, ex- cessive use of tariffs here and abroad. exchange restrictions. and state trading."

Abandon Rapidly

It said such devices should be abandoned "as rapidly as feasible" if foreign economic policy is to contribute to improving foreign markets for American farmers.

Miilikin, George and Reed filed dissants on the farm section.

The commission put up an al- most solid front against one pro- possl onercd for its considemtion. This was a suggestion by David J. McDonald. president of the 010 United Steelworkers and the only labor pckeaman on the commis- sion. for government help for in- dustries and workers injured by tariff cuts. The commission lined up 16 to I against McDonald on that.

While the commission endorsed efforts to shut off ahipmems of military and strategic goods to Communist China. North Korea and Soviet-bloc nations in Europe. it said western Europe might get

a. net advantage out of more trade-

in peaceful items with the Iron Curtain countries.

so far as it can be done "with- out jeopardizing militu-y secur- ity." and subject to the U. 3. am- bargo on trade with Red China and North Korea. the report said. the United-States should acquiesce in more traffic in items that "do not strengthen the forces of mili- tary aggression."

Attsok Tbh Point

Millikan. Read and Simpson jumped on this 1- f tlon. so did Miobonald. Senator Bourke I-Iickeniooper (Rep.-Iowa). and Senator Walter George (Dem.- 0a.).

On some points. except when

the general disagreements ofReed and Sinmeori might sppiy, nobody did any fault-finding. That was the cue. for example, with the idea of promoting more foreign travel by Americana This waa coupled with a . d "M for letting each tourist bring in 01,000 worth of overseas

purchaaea kduty free. 'I'helixnitnowia8500

The comml-ion said it was primarm concerned with steps the (7.3. can take towards solving the world's dollar problem. This is a two-way affair. Foreign countries need dollars to buy U. S. goods. and they need to sell exports here in order to earn dollars. ,

Implicit in all its recormnenda- tiona. the commission said. is the neceuity for like action by other nations, as "the United emu cannot do this Job a.icu.'

At virtually the last moment it has been decided by the S. A. A. A. to enter a juvenile team in the Island playdowns. Don MacNeill 'has consented to act as manager !of this team. and Bob and Paul ischurman will be coaches. The: Juveniles will also have to have their birth certificates passed in by noon today.
