BEAVERBROOK AT STANDS FIRM BY

By Norman Cribbens London Bureau, Thompson Newspapers IDNDON, Eng. -- If Lord Bea. verbrook's newspapers ever forget Lord Beeverbrookrs Empire policy. his Lorship 'will return from the

grave and haunt the trustees.

Canada's man of Empire told me that himself in an interview in his top-storey Piccadilly apart. merit the da he decided to give all his lord nary shares (voting Control) in Beaverbrook Newspap- ers Ltd. to the Beaverbrook Faun. dations - his own special chari- ties. "Now that you have relinquish- ed your financial control do you expect the Beaverbrook newspap- ers will carry out your.Emplre policy?" I asked Lord Beaverbrook.

”ThEl"d better," he replied. "If U191! don't I shall return."

"Return- to Canada?"

”No, return from the grave."

The puckish, Napoleonic "Bei- ver" - 75 last July-smiled as he said this, but I fancied the sinlle was just a shade grim. It left no doubt but that if it is possible for anyone to return from the grave after death, Lord Beaverbrook will be among those returning if his wishes are not respected,

I should add that Just before he uttered this threat Lord Bea- verbrook had been reading a front

SEVENTY-FIVE EMPIRE POLICY

page report in Canada Review, the British weekly. telling how the late Prime Minister Mackenzie King had returned "in spirit" to his summer home at King.-mere, Quebec.

”If Mackenzie King can do it so can 1;" he grinned.

IN PRIME CONDITION

.My lmpr - ion is that the Beaver Will not be returning for a long time inasmuch aslit will be a long time before hc "leaves." Looking at the slight, almost gnome-like figure with the broad head and wide grin, I saw no sign that his enormous mental and physical capacity is any less than it was at the height of the war when. as a member of Churchill's cabinet, he multiplied the production of war planes for the Battle of Bri- lain.

While we were talking. the phone rang and Lord Bcaverbrook ans- wered. I-Ie told his caller to take some particular medicine "he had recommended and go to bed early. Then replacing the receiver he said brusquely:

”That was my doctor. I-Ie's sick." The busy, energetic Beaver fairly bubbles with quips of this sort. He springs about the room, snatch- ing up documents and newspapers, dictating messages into his dicta- phone, calling on his secretary for facts-hard facts.

He has a disconcerting habit of turning the tables on interviewers with rapid-fire questions. In this way I found myself talking freely about Canada Review, The Scots- man, The Weekly Scotsman, the Edinburgh Evening Dispatch and other newspapers belonging to the Thomson Group.

"Our Roy knows what he's do- ing," said Lord Beaverbrook in a reference to Roy H. Thomson, founder of the Thomson Newspap- ers. And I was not surprised to find him all in favor of publish- mg a paper like Canada Review in Britain. Having boosted Canada in his mam-circulation British newspapers for nearly 40 years, he naturally believes Britain cannot know enough about Can- ada, and he shared my opinione that most Britons know remarkab- ly little about the senior Dominion.

MORE EMIGR ATION

"We must encourage emigra- tion," the Beaver continued. "We must have more British people in Canada and if necessary we should assist the right kind of people to go out there.”

when I told him British immi- grants sometiiiics complain there is more unemployment in Can- ada than they expect. he said: "That problem will iron itself out in time Enterprising people will always find a future in Can- ada. They always have done so."

In this regard he may well be prejudiced. Beaverbrook only waited till .he was 20 years old before making a small fortune in Can- ada. He earned 510,000 helping to amalgamate some Canadian banks. In the next ten years he made a considerable fortune and at 30 was acclaimed as a financial wizard. Then he went on to prove that Britain was a land of opportunity; came here before the First War, won a seat in Parliament and be- came Britain's first Minister of Information.

In 1915 tie bought the broken- down Daily Express and convert- ed it from a Fleet Street joke into a publishing domain of three big papers-The Express, the Even- ing standard and the Sunday Ex- press. Today the Express has a daily circulation of more than 4,- 000,000 and is often called the most influential newspaper in'the British Commonwealth -or Em- pire, as Bcawzrbrook prefers it.

"Our advertising men are hav- ing a wonderful time." he grin- ned. "They don't need to sell any- thing. Advertisers queue up to get into our papers. I doubt if you could advertise in the Express be- fore 1955 even.if you tried this minute."

I didn't try.

EMPIRE CONSOLIDATION

In any case the Beaver isn't much interested in advertising nowadays. He is much more con- cerned in proclaiming his gospel of consolidating the Empire and (as always) keeping out of Euro- pean "entanglements." He proposes a greater plan of development of all lands within the Empire (Com- monwealth) and he takes a strong stand against racial discrimina-

tion.

All races, all religions. all col- nrs must find equal acceptance within the Empire he envisions. That is his basic creed. the goal of a lifetime, but at the moment he has another concern. As a fre- qucnt visitor to the United states, he is concerned about sntl-Ameri- can feeling in Britain and through the Daily Express has set out to change this feeling. The Express is now sponsoring nation-wide "study groups" to make Britons understand the United States net- ter.

Beavcrornok chooses to pay taxes to Britain though he could if he chose evade them. He spends only a few months in Britain every year. The rest of his time is div- ided between Canada and all the sunniest places he can find. where- ver he goes he continues record- ing directives into his dictaphonos and those directives on familiar colored discs continue to harass Beaverbrook newspaper executives.

relinquish papers. the directives are never likely to cease while the Beaver is this side of the grave. And even then.

19 Claims For Crash Damages

O'1'rAWA (CP)- The heirs and estates of the vlctlins of the April 0 air crash at Moose Jaw. Sask., have filed 19 claims for damages against the Crown, totalling about 83,600,000.

Exchequer Court of Canada offi- cials said Wednesday that the claims were iiled late last week, but that it will be many weeks more before the court actually be- gins hearings.

A total of 3'! persons died in the crash beqveen a westbound Trans-Canada Air Lines North star and a single-engine RCAF Harvard. It was Canada's worst aviation disaster.

Rodney Adamson. Progressive Conservative member of Parlia- ment for York West, and his wife were victims of that disaster. The executors of their estates are claiming a total of s2l0,000 in damages.

Wide-open Spaces Surprise Asians. On Tour of Canada

TORONTO (GP)-Canada's wide open spaces nearly overwhelmed representatives of Asian countries currently on tour:

At a press conference Wednes- day I5 eastern delegates expressed astonishment at the acres of un- cultivated ground they glimpsed from train windows. They said such unused land represents a startling change from the orderly

inch-by-inch cultivation in their homelands. The delegates were among 60

Asian diplomate who met in Ot- tawa recently for Colombo plan progress talks. The tour, sponsored by the Canadian government, will take them over eastern Canada, northern Quebec and western Canada.

Speaking of the Ottawa confer- ence Dr. Gamani Corea, economic advisor for Ceylon, said most im- portant feature of the talks was a feeling that something is being ac- compllshed.

"Until recently things have been in the planning stages in Asian countries." he said. "But now the results are beginning to show."

Actor Helped- Search For Boy

MANIWAKI, Que. (CP)- Movie star Franchot Tone helped In the search for William Link, the 17- year-old hunter who became lost for three days in the bushland 28 miles west of this town.

The youth, son of the inventor of: the Link pilot trainor, was found by a guide Tuesday.

Link became lost Sunday and Tone. who had been hunting moose and had H. camp near the one oc- cupied by the Link family, offered his own canoe and outboard motor in the search. He also helped in the search". but had to withdraw later to fly back to Hollywood to fill a picture commitment.

Young Link. son of Edwin Link of Binghampton, N.Y., was with his parents and is 13-year-old brother. Clayton. on an annual moose-hunting trip at Windfall lake about 30 miles west of this town 90 miles north of Ottawa.

Refugee Problem is Still Acute

UNITED NATIONS. (AP) - A United Nations agency reported to- day that the paiestine refugee prob- lem continues to be acute and that prospects for, its solution-short of a general Arab-Israeli peace set- tlement-are poor.

The annual report of the director of the UN relief and works agency for Palestine refugees in the Near East says homeless Arabs who live in what now is Israel remain its unreconciled to their exile as they were when it began during the Palcstine war siv years ago.'

The number of refugees in June 1954, totalled 887,000, with 834,000 receiving rations distributed by the relief group. The total had dimin- lshed over all only 73.00, in four years.

One-third of the refugees still live in campshthc report says, and a third of these are still in tents.

Ontario Teachers Draw Up Program

TO!-IONTO (GP)--Increased aid from the provincial government and federal aid and bursaries for stu- dent teachers was recommended Tuesday in ii 22-point. program pro- posed by the Ontario Secondary School Teachers Federation to combat current teacher shortages.

Prepared after a year-long study, the program called for an amend- ment to the Adolescent School At- tendance act to allow "those stu- dents who have ceased to profit from attendance at secondary schools to leave" Under the act children mugt attend until they are

The brief recommended elimina- tion of the Ontario College of Edu- cation I200 tutition fee and provi- sion for low-cmt residences. It also proposed an emergency summer course training plan for secondary school teachers so university grad- uates could get an interim type 13 certificate after three successive summer courses.

All I time-s.1ver the federation asked for curtailment. of non-basic curriculum courses for the dura- tion of the shortage. It. also sug- gested that. superannusted and married teachers be allowed to re- turn to work on s. pert-time basis. The brief rerommended the United Kingdom as best source of teacher supply outside of Canada. but it warned against lowering

The Canadian economy chalked up a few more achievement re- cords this week but could ha.rdly ignore the fact that parts of that country were in trouble. i Workers in most provinces were. bringing home bigger pay cheques.g spending more money and paying' a little less for many articles. But out on the Prairies snow and i sleet cut further into farmers”, hopes of profit from their 1054: crops. About 4,000 plumbers were on strike in Montreal and Nova Scotia apple growers were trying to salvage what they could from the damage of hurricane Edna.

The ill-rated 1954 Prairie grain crop now appears to be the least valuable of post-war years. The grain fields spilled their troubles over into almost the whole prairie economy. Spending power fell off in August from August. 1953, as indicated by the vaule of cheques cashed. Retail sales were lower.

PRICES DOWN

But in other parts of the country most business indicators bounced along at a. higii level. The coun- try's paid workers earned about s120,000,000 more in the first seven months of 1954 than in the same 1953 period.

Most retail articles cost a little lies. People were buying more- retail sales have continued to mount since early summer in al- most all sections except the Prairies.

other high-level indicators: Tele- vision set sales leaped ahead dur- ing July and August. outstripping production by more than 50 per cent; more money was being bor- rowed from banks for house mort- gages; and house construction was booming in September 102 per cent in value ahead of September, 1953. '

Commercial fishermen on Cami-. dian coasts were making more money. August catchcs totalled 813,824,000, a 21-per-cent increase over August, 1953.

At week's end Nova Scotia apple growers were awaiting verification of rumors the federal government would pay them 90 cents a bushel for windfalls. The Dominion bur- eau of statistics estimated this week the hurricane loss may run, to 1,350,000 bushels, well over halt the expected crop.

LITTLE PROGRESS

Meanwhile British Columbia apple growers got welcome news. Bri- taln was reported ready to buy 750,- 000 boxcs of the province's ex- pected 5,000,000-box picking.

Stock markets made a little pro- gress this week. New York's ad-

vance was the greatest, with The Associated Press average of 60 Stocks going to 5137.40. a high since October, 1929.

The change in immigration de- partment regulations was disclosed Wednesday in the current issue of the Canada" Gazette.

The move apparently stemmed from a judgment by the Supreme Court of Canada last December which said, in effect, that a Chi- nese law making a concubine's
