MANY APATHETIC

2. The crissi of purpose-in I speech at New York April 23 Dul- les said the United States was willing,'to consider proposals to broaden NATO's work.

The response has been disap- pointing. in the view of some state department officials- Eventually some new political tasks undoub- tedly will be given the NATO coun- cil which meets in Paris, but the Allied governments are apathetic just now:

3. The crisis of support-baclo ing for the alliance is declining in some member countries. For example, Greece has found its claims on Cyprus far more urgent than the continued security of .he Western alliance: the dispute has caused a' grave split between Greece, Britain and Turkey. In Iceland this spring the Parliament passed a resolution calling on the government to get American troops out of the NATO-United States air base there.

Worry in Washington over the

gcuning prestige and power of NATO has produced one firm can- viction among some of Dulles' top ndvioors. This is that the United States itself will have to provide a far more imaginative and dyn- amic leadership in dealing with the NATO crisis that it so far has prcluced.

A week ago Canada's External Affairs Minister Pearson came here to confer "with Dulles on NA'r0's future. He is -one of three Western foreign ministers assigned to work on the problem and report back to the council of the alliance at Paris next fall. Pearson hoped to obtain a fairly clear definition of what the United States would be willing (-0 do within the llrnits of NATO. .

All Pearson got from Dulles. on this point however, was a gener- alized statement that the United States would be willing to go as far as any other country would go. having due regard to the spe- cial responsibilities of the United States all over the world. That put it up to other.countries to say what they would like the United States to do. But they are wait- ing for the United States to set the course.

Fine Turnout Of Scouts &

Police riot squads quickly quelled the disorder and sealed

off the meeting hall. The demon- strators, standing in front of the hotel where the meeting took place, shouted in chorus: "Out with Nazi Strasser."

A Strasser follower fired the tear gas.

Strasser condemned the recent award of the Charlemagne "Euro- pean unity" award to Sir Winston Churchill by the city of Aachen, Germany. He called the award "a perverted spectacle" and said it was given in a man who once called the Germans "in people of 65,000,000 murderers and crimin- als.”

"We laugh when one tries to present us these men as allies today, calling on us to join them in a crusade against the new huns. Yesterday we were the buns. Today the Russians are the huns."

Thus far the Strasser move- ment has attracted little public notice. Unol'icially the West Ger- man government at Bonn regards him as sort of a crank without much political power.

HOME BUILDERS PROTEST

On Tig

OTTAWA (CP) The govern- ment is standing firm on its tight- money policy, though a storm of protest is beginning to well up from Canada's house builders.

High-placed financial authorities say the Bank of Canada will not how to pressures to reduce its record high interest rate. It likely will make no reduction. unless the United States takes such action first, they said. -

And Works Minister Winters has stated in the Commons the gov- ernment does not contemplate any direct steps to increase the flow of mortgage funds for housing purposes.

In fact, the only increased aid the house builders may get is through the chartered banks them- selves and other 'lending institu- tions. Whlle the banks generally have limited the flow of loans at the request of the Bank of Can- ada, authorities here said the cen- tral bank gave no orders as to which category of loans were to be reduced-. . . -. nQn.v at saunas i "MI banks had tightened up on

other the banks will do so remains to be seen. Governor Jamal Coyne of the Bank of Can- ado told investment dealers at St. Andrews. N.B., Thursday that every month during the so-called restrictive period. bank loans in- creased.

But he added:

". . . It seems probable that the rise in total bank loans will slow down before very long. . . . some cstegories of loans may decline while others go on increasing."

A high rate of house-building is one of the elements in Canada's economic boom. Last year Canada completed I peak 127,500 new homes and carried over 79.700 un- completed houses into 1956. The carryover was 11,000 higher than the year.
