This or Church leaders Aired Al Assembly

B! NORMAL‘ ALTSTEDTEB (Canadian Press Staff Writer)

LAKE SUCCIBS. N. Y., April 6 - (CP) - The explosive charge that Communist Governments of Eastern Europe persecute religious leaders today sparked the first East-West clash in the reconvened United Nations general assembly. Canada strongly urged the as- semblyh li-man steering com- mletee to direct the 58-member body to decide whether human rights were violated in the trials of Joseph Cardinal Mindszenty, Roman Catholic Primate of Hun- gary, and 15 Protestant Church leaders of Bulgaria.

The Russian bloc sharply rs- Jected the proposal before the steering committee which will de- cide how the problem is tackled by the U. N. Poland's Julius Katzy- Suchy said the trials were internal affairs and therefore outside U. N. Jurisdiction.

Warren B. Austin, United States delegate, suggested the trials be considered as possible violations of the religious and civil liberties guaranteed under the peace treaties with Hungary and Bulgaria. Failing to reach a decision, the steering committee adjourned un- til l1:ii0 am. AST Thursday. West- ern delegates expressed confidence the problem will receive a full airing and will result in a U. N. denunciation of Hungary and Bulgaria. The question is expected to be thrashed out first in the political, the legal or the social committee.

diplomatic corps in Nsnklng in- formed of the grave turn of events. Li is said to have informed the diplomats that the opposition ultimatum amounted to virtual surrender. He could not accept it in that form.

The harsh terms were Jul-ought from Pelplng, where the peace talks are in progress, by two Com- munist representatives.

Political observers speculated. that even if Li gave in he could not deliver the 200,000 man garrison in the Nanking-Shanghai-Hagchow mangle.

The garrison is commanded by Gen. Tang Err-Po, whose loyalty is to Generalisaimo Chiang Kai-Shek. "retired" president, not Li. Shielded by the triangle is the retreat of chiang at Fenghaw, 100 miles south of Shanghai.

Observers said if Li surrenders Chiang may emerge from his re- treat and lead the final struggle against the Communist tide in South China.

Li then would be in a position to surrender only the somewhat smaller force guarding the Central Yangtze front around Hankow. "

“The 194'! crop year," he said, "was one of the biggest and best years that seed potato growers have experienced in recent years. Yields were good, output of grad- ed stock as revealed by total ship- ments waa higher than ever, and prices left little to be desired. ranging all the way from 01 per bushel in the fall to 02.90 per bushel in the spring.

8% Millions Shipped “Total shipments to all coun- tries and provinces amounted to over 8% million bushels. This was three-quarters of a million more than that of the previous crop year. This increased demand for our seed, coupled with good prices, re- sulted in ths planting and enter- ing for inspection in 1948 of the largest acreage under Certificat- ion ior all time. A total of 38,750 acres was entered for inspection by 5,764 growers. Cf this amount, 29.- 364 acres passed final field in- spection.

Direeters Sherwood Cemetery Re-eleelid

The seventy fifth annual meeting of the blot holders of d Cemetery was bald yesterday af- iflfll°°lb with the Prmidcnt Hon. George D. DeBiois in the chair. Other directors present were W. E. Bentley, W. R. Aitken and C. H. Black. who together with Colonel G. E. Full were re-elected.

Following is the report of the directors: .

The director! of the Company have pleasure in presenting the seventy fifth annual report, and, would ask you to road same care- fully.

As was pointed out to you last year, it Ll quite evident that the Couipanyis in need of a. larger in- come, due to the fact of increasing expenses.

The price of plots has been in- creased. and the amount required for perpetual care has been in- creased from $100 to $150 per plot. It is hoped however, that many who have already contributed $100 for this purpose will endeavour to give an additional amount.

During the year $760.00 was add- ed to the Fund for Perpetual care of Plots.

Last fall one section of the Cem- etery was ploughed up, and it is the intention of the directors to have this levelled out and sown with grass this coming Spring. This will not only tend to improve the look of this section, but will make it much easier for the care- taker to keep it in a JflMCh better condition than fomnerly. It is hop- ed in time that the whole Cemetery will be similarly dealt with.

Your director; ask for a greater interest on the part of all the plot- holders.
