COUNCIL APPROVAL CERTAIN

Hammarskiold Returns To

Chorus Of Praise In U.N.

UNITED NATIONS. N.Y.. (AP) -UN secretary-general Dag Hammarskjold returned Sunday to a chorus of praise and certain- ty of Security Council approval for his month's Middle East ne- gotiations on Israeli-Arab peace.

He told reporters and diplo- mats that it now is up to the Middle East governments to make good on ceasefire pledges

he has obtained from Israeli. Egypt. Jordan. Syria and Lebanon.

"Only the future can show

what. thanks to the goodwill of the governments concerned, may grow out of this unique assign- ment." he said. '

He declined to r quest- Iona about his final report to the council before he makes it pub- lic later this week. The extent of the ceasefire pledges will not be generally known until then.

Hammarskjoldis success in ob-

fire between Israel and the Arab states. Egypt- Syria- Lebanon and Jordan. has amazed and delighted hardboiied diplomats.

Henry Cabot Lodge Jr.. chief U. S. delegate who once feuded with Hammarskjold about hand- dling the Guatemalan revolution crisis in the UN. now is singing his praises. The Soviet permanent delcgatc. Arkady A: Sobelev. is quiet publicly but is known to be happy about the results achieved by Hnmmarskjold.

LIE TIRED OF STRAIN

When Hammarsirjold came here from Sweden three years ago the office of secretary-general frankly was on trial. The first occupant. Trygve Lie- had become tlged go the Russian cold shoulder an other matters and quit. The gen- erai feeling was that the secre- tary-general should be a good civil servant with no opinions and cer-

taining reafiirmation of the cease-

tainly not a trouble shooter.

Graham Sentenced To Gas Chamber For Aircraft Bombing

DENVER. Colo. (AP) - Con- demned murderer John Gilbert Graham. 24, asked Saturday night that he be executed in Colorado's gas chamber.

His appeal in an affidavit to Judge Joseph McDonald came 24 hours after he was convicted of killing his mother. Mrs. Daisic King. 55. and even as his court- appointcd lawyers moved for a new trial.

Graham's affidavit read:

"(I don't desire my attorneys to file a motion for a new trial. It is not my intention to appeal my conviction to the supreme court of Colorado or to any federal court.

"I accept the verdict of the jury

and desire that it be carried out with all convenient speed. This is my wish. I have been advised by my attorneys that under the law the sentence of death requires that it be appealed to the highest (court) of this state.

"I desire to waive that provis- ion of the law."

John Gibbons. one of Graham's lawyers said it would be presented to Judge McDonald Monday.

The defence earlier filed motion for a new trial. based on 36 points of alleged trial court error. Gra- ham was ac d of placing a suitcase just before she boarded dynamite bomb in his mother's on airliner at Denver.

Local Legion Branch Has V-E Day Annual Memorial Parade

The Charlottetown Branch of The Canadian Legion. B. E. S. 1.. yesterday held their annual V-E Day memorial parade with a slightly smaller turnout than pre- vious years. dug mainly to the in- clement weather. However those that did turnout amply demonst- rated that they still had the old spirit which carried them through tough spots in the World War II and Korean conflicts.

The parade. under the command of Sergeant-at-Arm Art Hale. formed up in front of the Legion Home at i()..”ifi headed by the 17 (P. E. i.) RECCE Regt. Band and was led by the president Comrade V. J. Bowlan. At the Cenotaph the parade was halted while a wreath was ,laid by the part-president. F. A. Rush. They then proceeded to Trinity United Church where the Protestant party broke oft and the RC. party continued on to St. Dunstan's Basilica for high mass which was sung by Revs Father Cass and Father Roach. At the conclusion of the Mass a wreath was laid at the altar by president Bowlan and the Last Post sounded by Comrade B. Dolron.

At Trinity Church the service was conducted by Rev. A. F. Mac-

THREE WISE MEN

Pear

PARIS (CP)-The Atlantic pact powers Sunday named a team of "three wise men" and gave it some six months report on where NATO should go from here.

Canada's External Affairs Min- lster Pearson was named as one of the three members of the spe- cial ministerial fact-finding com- mittee. The other two are Foreign

. Minister Haivard Lange of Norway

and Italy's Gaetano Martino.

The committee was given broad powers-purposely left vague-to study the prospects of increasing North Atlantic Treaty Organization cooperation in non-military fields. This will probably mean visiting all member natons capitals, either individually or collectively. and would keep Pearson away from his Ottawa desk for some weeks'at different intervals.

INO SCIENCE FICTION AD

LONDON (Reuters) - A British aircraft company has launched a campaign to recruit qualified and eager young engineers for pioneer- ing space travel.

The company advertised in a scientific "vie for t ” ' lam: "with upwards of 20 years of use ful life ahead." The advertise- rncnt said the aircraft company is ”vsell known" but did not identify it.

This was no S('l("iPf' fiction in serious manner. the company listed aniung the requirements a knowledge of electronic and hy- draulic systems. pressure cabin control, aircraft structure and guided weapons trial procedure.

MANNED ROCKET

The advertisement left no doubt that the compan, envisages ilie de velopment of manned spaceships rather than robot missiles control- led from the earth. The United States plans to test an unmanned satellite in the 1957- 58 Geophysical Year. 0. .1. Carter, secretary of the British interplanetary Society. said Saturday the aircraft company is probably developing a manned rocket for "medium space flight" from the earth. "Although space flight is gener- ally thought of as being 2.000 or 3.000 miles from the earth. in fact it begins much lower." he said.

Carter said he is convinced the British government is helping the aircraft company in its research on space travel.
