Mr. MacDonald touched off the exchange last Monday, accusing Mr. Frost of running a dishonest administration. The premier came back with a statement that the CCF leader is a reckless, glib, ridiculous, absurd man with no logic and a disregard for truth calculated to hurt and destroy the province’s historic -parties—Con- servative and Liberal.

for negotiations.’ West was using the ‘‘approach of a horse dealer.”’
“When we were working out our proposals we did not act as merchants who treble the price they are asking and after bar- gaining sell their goods more cheaply. —
NOT MADE FOR BARGAINING
“We do not negotiate on their principle of concession for con- cession. We have no reason to make any concessions since our proposals were not made for bar- gaining.
“We agree to discuss all pro- posals made with the object of easing international tension . . - but he who really strives for peace must not resort to horse- bargaining tricks in the negotia- tions.”’
Two weeks ago, Khrushchev de- livered a speech in the Soviet Union saying that some parts of the Western plan deserved con- sideration but now he appears to have dismissed the West’s sug- gestions entirely.
The Western proposals, pre- sented by Gecretary of State Christian A. Herter at Geneva, called for the re-unification of Berlin as a prelude to a gradual reunion of the two Germanys.
Khrushchev repeated his warn- ing that missile bases might be established in Albania.

Dr. Jones said factors which possibly influence steadily lower- ing attendance at medical schools include: Length of course, low- ered prestige of the doctor in the public eye, increasing govern- ment control in the medical field and economic factors. SUGGESTED INDUCEMENTS
