25 Years Collaboration ls Marked By Ceremony

OGDENSBURG, NY (CP)— Canadian and American offici- cials Wednesday marked a quarter-century of military col- laboration with calls for’contin- uing close relations

The function commemorated the 1940 meeting of the late president Roosevelt and prime minister Mackenzie King at which they established the Can- ada-U.S. permanent joint board

on--defence, making the -two countnes allies in war and peace

External Affairs Minister

Martin and W. Averell Harri- man, U.S. ambassador at large, said the agreement reached in the dark days of the Second World War, is needed as much today since the Western World faces military threats

Rev. J. Logan Vecta, Presbyterian minister, in his in- vocation, likened the scene here to the field of Runnymeade on which King John signed Magna Carta at the insistence of his fobles ‘

Martin, principal s peaker, spoke of the interdependence of the two countries, both in mili- tary and civilian affairs.

He said when there. are dif- ferences of views they —should be discussed honestly “with re- straint and responsibility.”

Harriman said he is convinced

Police at first said one shot. was Tifeéd “at thent-from the mosque. Later they changed this to two shots and said there was’ @ bullet hole in a police car and another, in a sheriff's ear.

19 ARRESTED IN MOSQUE

Of the 60 arrested, police said 19 were inside the mosque. Forty-one others were picked up outside, but police later said one of them apparently was not involved in the trouble.

Fifty official cars swarmed to the scene in response to an anonymous tip that men were tnloading guns from a truck at the mosque,’: headquarters for the estimated 500 Black Mus- lims in the Los Angeles area.

“Near-Collson With Asteroid

The bést scientific estimate, however. is that Icarus will miss the earth by about 4,000, 000 miles—a mere stone's throw

the Russian government still be- lieves in a world in -revolution and that communism is the way of the future.

Just returned from Russia and informal! talks with Premier Kosygin, Harriman said he is sure. the. Soviet.-Union wants to avoid nuclear disaster but that Russia is pursuing its long- range objectives.

“These discussions left me convinced that whatever! changes may he occurring in Soviet society, Soviet objectives remain the same,” he said.

Harriman said the. Ogdens- burg agreement was a remark- able document, drafted at the dinner table by King and Roose- velt without all of the diplomatic negotiations that are entailed in

reaching international. pacts te- day ; He said thre} was no

paper | jreadily at hand. and wotes for-|

the agreement were scribbled lon the table cloth, When the communique was being drafted

the notes were “saved only. at- the last minute before the cloth |

was laundered.

Martin called the pact a wa tershed in Canadian-American | relations, by which the countries |

pooled their defence responsibil. | jities after a long period of ab- |

stention from international com- mitments.

The spirit of the Ogdensburg Pact is even more necessary to-

‘day, in a world of rapid and.

expensive military development, Martin said.

THIS COULDN’T-HAPPEN WERE Mk. KING ALIVE

OGDENSBURG, N.Y. (CP)

It never could have hap- pened if Mackenzie King ‘were alive.

The late prime minister was such a stickler for this detail he wouldn't have let it happen.

What happened?

They misspelled his name, the’one passed down from his

cherished grandfather, -W | 1- Liam Lyon Mackenzie. fhe “little rebel’ of the Upper

Canada rebellion of 1837. They. spelled it MacKenzie, witha. capital K.

It's here for all to see on a te commemorating Wed- nesday's 25th anniversary of the Ogdensburg agreement between Mackenzie» King of Canada and Franklin D.

Roosevelt of the U.S.

The two agreed in 1940 to |

set up the Canada-U.S. per- manent joint board on defence, virtually pooling the defence resources of the two count- ries. It still operates.

Who was to blame for the error? That's hard to say. The plaque was erected by the Ki- | wanis clubs of Ottawa and Og- | densburg, who recognized the | approaching anniversary be- | fore the government of either country got involved.

The. governments were rep- resented at the dedication cer- emony by External Affairs Minister Martin--a Mackenzie King protege-—and W. Averell arriman, U.S. ambassador- at-large.

After this. early manoeuvring exercise, they settle down to a routine schedule—eight days ef observations, experiments and relative inactivity.

But this is the main purpose of the flight. Doctors have pre- scribed minor exercises and mnsohenionl, devices that they hope will forestall some of the adverse affects-of space flight.

The question that this flight will answer: What are the prob- lems that affect the humas body after eight days of weight lessness and relative inactivity?

Of~ prime concern are the weakening of the heart through a long period of lessened work of bone wastage, the secrets o human_ balance, and just plais survival in the cramped espace craft cabin.
