Wantlrlclians As , Ministers
Ottawa: One of the recommen- dations to come before the 18th General Council of the United Church of Canada will urge that Canadian Indians be encouraged to participate in the life and work of the United Church, and that young Indians with special qual- ifications should be helped to pre- pare themselves for leadership in the Church. .
Aware of hopeful signs of the emergence of an effective leader- ship of Indians in Chuchlife, a Commission of The United Church
I also rounded up loiters and
years. The denominator made its first report at the Windsor Gen- eral Council, and at Ottawa will present the remainder of its find- lugs.
The United Church of Canada has been cooperating with the Indian Affairs Branch of the Do- minion Government in Education for many years.
The United Church operates 6 residential schools for Indians. Twenty-six United Church mini- sters and 25 lay supplies includ- ing 4 Indians are engaged in In- dian mission Work.
As a result of the Commisslon’s report to the 1956 General Coun- cil, Rev. Joblin was ap- pointed to the Board of Home Missions with Indian work as his major responsibility.

SMALL BOY AND A TREE
BALTIMORE (AP) ~— What goes up must come down. But it took a while Monday, and plenty of manpower, for l3-year~old Raymond C. Shela, man. ,
When his parents went out- side, there was Raymond—— his left knee trapped by a fork of a small elm tree. ,They called police.
Two patrolman tried to pry the forks apart. Then they called the fire department.
Firemen “sliced off the leg of Raymond’s dungarees. They ’ liberally smeared the leg with axle grease. They put a jack between the forks. Then they called the fire depart- ment rescue squad.
The rescue squad decided to chop down the tree. After a few hotty swings, they gave that 'up. Then they tried a hydraulic jack between the branches. That did it.
Young Raymond had only a bruised leg. The tree was only slightly scarred.

Wi-ll Consume
Consumers In the Atlantic Pro- vinces will buy more meats, eggs fruits and vegetables over the next 20 years. At the same time, individual consumption of cereals potatoes and butter will confine to decerase, according to a re- port prepared by Arthur 0. Parks APEC Economist at the Univ- eristy of New Brunswick, Fred- ericton. , Projected population in. creases,‘ however, will likely ac- count for total 1 creases in those items where per capita consump- tion drops off.
The forty page research study was released by the Atlantic Provinces Economic Council. Tit- led, “The Demand for Food Pro- ducts in the Atlantic Provinces— (with Special Reference to Meat and Poultry Products)" the study was undertaken some months ago to establish trends in the demand for a number of selected food products in the Atlantic Provin- ces and to project these trends to 1980.
LOCAL FACTORS \
“While little change has occur- red. or is expected to occur. in volume food consumption in Can ado, there have been consider- able changes in per capi-ta de- mand for various food products,” the report states. “There are a number of factors which can be expected to cause the per capita consumption of food products in the Atlantic Provinces to differ from National per capita consump sumptlon of the some products."
Listing some of these factors as “the rural-urban distribution of population, the level of dis- posable incorne per capita, the natural allocation of food resour- ces among the various regions of Canada, and certain charac- teristics (i.e.. age distribution) of population,” the report adds. —— “there is reason to anticipate a long term tendency for these in- finance: to diminish in import- ance." , ' TREND 0F DEMAND
Trends whlch are expected to prevail in Atlantic'Provincos’ de- mand are:
Cereals: Although per capita consumption has been declining, increase: have occurred In the consumption of cereals since 1935- 39 due to the rising level of po- pulation. This trend is expected to continue to about 1965. Be- tween 1905 and 1980. the increase in population is likely (70 do no. more than‘compensate for the de- drop in per capita consumption.

Predict Atlantic Provinces
More Foods
creases In population, the report predicts there be a slight in- crease in regional demand to 1965, and a maintenance of de- mand to 1980.
Fruits: 'Dotal demand for fruits
of all kind as been increasing at a pronounced rate since 1935459, due to a shrap rise in per capita consumption. Based on 1935-39 levels, consumption of fruits — mainly citrus fruits, fruit juices, such as apple juice, and proces- sed fruits-has risen 183 per cent. A similar rate of increase is an- ticipated over the next 20 years, although per capita demand for fresh (other than citrus) fruits may show little change. 1 Dairy Products: Between 1931- ‘from National per capita con- sumption of dairy products, in- cluding butter, remained fairly stable, but 13 expected to de- cline slightly to 1980. The report states that the increases which are expected In the population of the Atlantic Provinces will over- come the effect of this slight decrease. Total consumption is expected to inc-rose at a reduced rate. ' 1
Main cause of this declineds nttributed‘to the decline In but- ter consumption (31 pounds per capita in 1935-39 to 21 pounds per capita ill-3195145). An increase 13 expected in cheese consump- tion and dried milk products, based on recent trends.
Meat, Poultry and Eggs: Signi- ficant increases in most, poul- try and eggs have occurred dur. ing the past 20 years. Beef and pork account for about 90 per- cent of the demand for meals. Per capita consumption is expec- ted to continue upward over the next 20 years, based on rising incomes and population increas- es. The report forsees a demand of 170 percent of 1951-55 figures. Poultrymeats and eggs will lik- ely increase in similar fashion.
“The estimates of future db malnd added to the current re gional deficiencies in the produc- tion 'of red meats and poultry meats permit extensive develop; ment in the livestock and poultry s tors of the agricultural indus- tr ". states the report, “The ex- pan-sion of production of these commodities together with mar- ket facilities to insure products which wiill be competitive by quality and price with products now being brought in, or likely to be brought in. offer: tremen~ drus opportunities for agricul- tural promotion within the limits

l‘Sclence today advapces so swiftly that what is a deadly weapon today is obsolete tomor- row," Khrushchev said.
RAPS U.S. POLICY
Eaton was quoted at length by the Soviet press and radio as criticizing American policies in the Middle and Far East. No broadcast interview quoted Eaton as saying (Shouting favorable about the United States or critical about the Soviet Union. Eaton told Western correspondents he might say something about the broad- casts and stories later.
The Soviet press printed only a brief official account of his meet- ing with Khrushchev.
(The portions of‘ the dispatch quoting Eaton directly on his in- terview with Khrushchev were held up by the censor in Moscow for several hours.)
