!-Iis Honor 0. St. Clair Trainor. Judge of the County Court of Queen's Ooimty, wilPconsuct an inquiry into the water supply of the Village of Parkdale, it was announ- oed last night by the Provincial Government.

In a proclamation issued yeste;-. dill. it was stated that by reason or the rules land regulations of the Commissioners of Sewers and water Supply of the City otoharlottetown a. large number of inhabitants of Parkdale were unable to procure a Supply of water from the City wa- ter system although the system passes through Parkdale.

No Immediate Red Reaction To Recess

MUNSAN, Korean. Oct. 8-(Wed- nesday) - (AP) - The United Na.- tlons Command today called off the Korean armistice talks indefinite-

The sudden action could mean a breakdown of negotiations during the heat of the bitterest battle of the Korean war in more than 3

ar.

The talks, in their 15th month, were recessed indefinitely at a 63- minute meeting of U.N. Command and Communist truce delegates at Panmunjom - their first session in ii) days.

Red reaction to the recess was not immediately available.

In the past, U.N. delegates have declared recesses and then walked out.

The U.N. command lo days ago offered the Reds three proposals for settling the prisoner-of-war ex- . change question, the final stumb- ling block to a truce in Korea.

The U.N. Command insists that no prisoner be forced against his will to return home. The Reds

Francis Blanchard Dies In Ilospiial

A 12-year-old Freetown boy. Francis Blanchard was fatally in- jured yesterday when a truck driv- en by his father. Earl Blanchard. was in collision with another truck at Freetown. . The accident occurred about noon and the boy died about mid- night last night in the Prince County Hospital. He had been ad- mitted there at. approximately 1:46 p. in. Details of the accident were scanty. It was understood the fa- ther and son were employed by John and Colby Lewis in potato harvesting and were collecting po- tato pickers at noon. Apparently the accident occurred either while they were turning on the road or turning into a field.

it was understood the driver of the second truck was Hodge Monit- gomery.

The vow that binds too strictly snaps itself.
