Truman Asks Huge Sum To Arm Wesl: Euro

Experts Differ Over Market Outlook For ' Government Butter

i ____ I By Bel-old Morrison

‘increasing accumulations of meat has been the, last three

now total more when the production over in September. they reached almost 60,000,000 pounds.

Besides storage costs, the Gov- ernment so far has spent more than $24,000,000 buying up the surplus butter and expects to spend at last an additional $6,000,000 be- fore production slows up and the supply situation tightens.

Some of the experts believe the Government will have little troub- 1e disposing of the butter, selling the product in carload lots at 58 cents s pound to any buyer that offers to take the product off Gov- ernment hands.

They recall that at this time last year when private industry stored butter, surplus stocks mounted to 30,000,000 pounds and Canada was forced to import 15,000,000 pounds during the w-in- ter months to meet a critical short- age.

However, since then margarine has made its legal appearance on the Canadian market and some of the demand for butter has been absorbed by the butter substitute which has been selling at lower prices than butter and forcing the butter price down.

This has led other Government experts to doubt whether the ac- cumulations can be disposed of easily without a slight Government

ss.

But they add that the whole question of disposal and price will depend on demand and availabil- ity during the coming fall and winter months when Canada has to depend on storage accumula- tions to fill consumer require- meats.

Declares Their Defence ls "Our Defence"

Would l-lelflfailey Fear Which Haunts The World.

i

By John M. Hlghtower

WASHINGTON, July 25 —-(AP) —President Truman today as"ed Congress for 81.450.000.000 in cash to help arm foreign countries against soviet Communism and thus allay fear which, he said, "haunts the world,"

The bulk of the sum would be spent on the new Allies of the United States in Western Europe. "Ighelr defence is our defence." he sa d.

"It must be made clear that the United states had no intention. in the event of aggression, of allow- ing the peoples of Western Europe in be overrun before its own Pvwer can be brought to bear."

The money also would be used to provide weaporm for Greece, Turkey, and other countries.

President ‘Ikuman argued that the United slates obligated by its leadership in world affairs to help other countries "acquire the means of defending themselves."

Second Step In Cold War

The President's appeal for prompt approval of the long-await- ed arms program was his second action of the day in the cold war with Russia. Two hours before he signed and thereby formally rati- fied the North Atlantic 'f‘rcaty for the United States.

He issued a statement saying that this action. taken "with the overivhelimlng support of the Sen- ate and the people, shows our de- termination to preserve. . . peace and freedom."

"This treaty is a historic slap to- ward a, world peace, a free world, free from fear, but it is only one step." he said-

TION COMMISSION

Brought Into

By John Leblanc Canadian Press Stuff Writer A solution to Canada's railroad

ills through amalgamation of tho railways under Government own- ership was proposed by the Frill” Edward Island Government yei" tenday before the royal commission on transportation. Declaring the Canadian railway problem must be solved QU-lfik-ly» the Government said that. W11"! some other means ls found to pro- vide adequate national service ivithout rising freight rates, amal- gamatlon-nat-ionalizatlon is the only alternative solution. The Liberal Government's strand was set out in a 60,000-word brief presented lo the Commission and backed by a personal statement from Premier J. Walter Jones as the Commission opened sittings hero in its country-wide investiga- tion into transportation problems for the Federal Government. The Government of Canada's smallest Province tool: hold of the politically-touchy amalgamation ls- sue more firmly than any other body to appear before the Commis- sion since the three-man groflll under Hon. WRA. durgeon open- ed its current Canada-wide tour seven iveeks ago. f Saying Canada needs a nation- I al policy on transportation. it add- ed flatly that "amalgamation un- der Government ownershlp pro- vidw such a. policy." “Transportation being a. national problem, the (freight) rate struc- ture must be such as will permit traffic to 'flow, and if there is any deficiency in (railway) revenue, the people of Canada. as a whole should assume that burden." the brief said. The Government added specifie- ally that amalgamation would in- volve talcing over the Canadian Pacific Railway, Canada's $1.300.- 000000 private rail corporation, and t the elimination of competition.

In Unique Position f

In his personal appearance be- fore the Commission, Premier Jones said P. E. I. ls in a unique position to suggest amalgamation because it

‘the C. P. R, and also because

is the only Province not served by it

Strong emphasis on the need of a shorter route. both by rail and highway, from this Province to Montreal via the State of Maine was placed by Prcmier J. Walter Jones in welcoming the members of the Royal Commission on Trans- portation at the opening of the Commission hearings in the Court House here yesterday.

"I suggest," Premier Jones said, "that this Commission give con- sideration to the amalgamation- for management purposes at least -of the Canadian Pacific and Can- adian Naiional Railways. We are in a unique position ,to advance this suggestion, as we are the Only Province that has not got the C. PR. with us. We are suffering from that long haul to Montreal, and we think that these two rail- ways could be brought together- ln some way for the benefit of al. of Canada. At least we think ii should be considered and discussed. The same proposal was made by Lord Shaughnessey and Sir Ed- ward Beatty. and I don't see why this commission should not give careful consideration to it."
