In what amounted to a state- ment ol government policy in the commons, Mr. Martin told Opposi- tion members who have.unged the plan that agreement with the pro- vinces. lack or adequate hospital iaeilittes and the huge costjoi the undertaking are iactcrs which would make it unwise to rush into tl-1 plan now.

"There is no question or where stands." said the Minister. "But that plank in our platform doesn't' mean that it

. has to be done overnight."

Underesiimaieel Needs

When the plan was iirst suggest- ed, Mr. Martin said, it was esti- mated that Canada was short 65.- 000 hospital beds necessary tocarry it out. since that time, through grants to the provinces. 38,000 more beds have been made avail- stble. In addition 438 new hospit-

siavement at all Germany." The aim obviously was to scare East Germans into believing they must prepare to light against be- ing swallowed up by "the great landowners. the magnate: and the

bankers” and frightening West Germany out of ratifying her complex of treaties with the West.

The call to arms and rebellion against the West was accompani- ed by these iresh moves in the war of nerves:

OTTAWA. June 8 --(G')- Lt.- Gen. Guy sknonds expressed con- iidenre today that North Atlantic countries will resolve their dliier- ences on weapons standardization.

Meanwhile. Canada has suspend- ed iurther orders ior United States 30-calibre semi-automatic Garand riiles, but will use the 10,900 she already has for her home-deience paratroop brigade and ior the R. C.A.F. in Europe.

The chici oi the General Stall. optimistic about the iuture, told a. press conference however. that st.andardization' cannot be achieved overnight. It may not be periected ior at least another lour years.

Until the United States and the United Kingdom agree on the type or rlile that would be standard. Canada will depend on her .300- calibre Lee-Eniield rlile and the Brcll, discribed as the "best light machine Run in the world." ior in- iantry training and operations.

The weapons Canadians are us- in: are as "good as any in the world and better than most." Gen. Slmonds said.

Cvarand Tried Out

The Gorand, he added. had been tried out ”unciiicially" by cam. dian troops in Korea and the in-

rlile. It has higher firing power: than the Lice-Eniield, a single- action weapon. -

The Lee-Iniield is more reliable in cold weather snclithe Garand more complicated to look alter, but these comparisons amounted to no more than "hair-splitting." Th Garand is reliable, ii proper car is taken the General sald.r
