O'I'I‘A'WA, July 4 _ (Cp) _.. Defence Minister Claxton tonight Siiilsested the Soviet Union look into its own back yard first be- fore it accused other countries of fomenting a new war.

Tho Defence Minister who had told the Conn-non. that Russia "ilmfltly was Canada's only pos- sible aggressor fought back against an attack by the Moscow army newspaper, Rod Star,

Red Star had asserted Saturday “Government circles in can...“ not only are not combatting the WE!‘ hysteria kindled in the na- tion but themselves are actively ltflillllns forth in the unenvinbie 0f Pmvflsandists for s new war."

It described‘ as "a provocaieufs Dim drum" the declaration by Canada's defence chief that flthe only possible aggressor is the so. viet Union."

Everyone knows that Canada is not a country which has about 4.000.000 men under arms," the

lhlence Minister told the Can-

adian Press.

FWVMP. ‘Canada has not used the veto 2d times to obstruct in. temational co-operation and has not taken under her domination nearly a dozen countries."

‘The hope of future peace 11m not, in what the Boveit Union says about us brat in what the soviet Union does, the Defence Minister said in an interview with the Can- adian Press.

Why Did Tito Get Kicked In The Teeth?

By James D. White Associated Press News Analyst Why did Marshall Tito get kick-

ed in the teeth? How did it hap- Den?‘ What does it mean? '

There is yet no clear answer to these questions. Perhaps one of the best is provided by Dr. Robert J. Kerner. historian and Eastern European expert at the University of California. _

On the basis of what is known thus far, . Dr. Kerner feels the spark plug is the pervading Rus- sian fear of what he calls the tremendous pulling power of the Marshall Plan. This has set in motion a train of events which has been acceded up by Yugoslaviirs exposed geographic position inthc European Recovery Program. and by Russia's knowledge that she and Communism can offer noth- ing to match it.

Unable to compete with ERP. someone around Moscow made the first of a series of grave blunders this spring when Tito was given the job of winning the Italian election for the Italian Commun- ists. He urns supposed to offer Trieste to a friendly Italian gov-

Heavy Allied Air

. Traffic To Berlin

BERLIN, July 4 — (AP) — Food-laden British and American planes flew into Berlin by the (hundreds today in answer to the Russian refusal to lift- the 16-day ground blockade.

United States planes dropped into the Tornpelhof Airdrome at the rate of one every three min- utes. During the last M hours they 11nd flown 224 flights.

The RAJ‘, which keeps s. noon-to-noon box score, flew 161 flights up to midday, and also sent four giant Sunderland flying boats from England.

The Sunderlands will ‘fly daily from the ElbeRiver at Hamburg to the Havel, a western Berlin lake. British officials hope to boost the‘ Sunderland total to 10 planes daily.

Although the Western Powers were rapidly expanding the alr lift, Berlin itself faced economic paralysis by the extended block- ade. The stoppage of coal ship- merits from the west already had halved Western Berlin's industrial output,

Crop Conditions Reviewed By Deputy Minister Shaw

Mr. WR. Show, Deputy Minis- ter of Agriculture, reports that seeding has been practically com- pleted throughout the whole Pro-

_ vince, although in some isolated

cnses in very low and naturally damp lands, some grain has yet to be sown. The success of late seedings will be mhinly dependent upon summer and fall conditions.

Last year grain was sown, as late as the first week in July and came through with excellent yields oi well filled and matured grains. A wet season and fall would make it. very difficult however, Mr. Shaw stated, to harvest satisfac- tory yields.

Early potatoes are showing ex- ceptional growth and vigor, and generally speaking there is very little complaint of misses in thp crop. The acreage has increased by approximately fifteen percent or possibly more, and in some sec- tiom fanners have Tioubled the area to potatoes with a. corres- ponding general decrease in live- stock

The high prices ef- potatoes dur- ing the past few months have no doubt been influential in acreage expansion. ‘There is no more as- surance, however, Mr. Shaw stated, of adequate returns during the

' cc-minggseason on potato produc-

tion, than there would be in a year when spring prices were at a.

Death On Saturday Of - Mr. Samuel Kennedy

-__.,_-

A prominent citizen passed away at the Prince Edward island Hos- pital on Saturday in the person of Mr. Samuel Kennedy, M.B.E., a former Mayor of Charlottetown and member of a family widely known in the business and political life of the Province.

Mr. Kennedy had been in failing health for some time, but his sturdy appearance belied the fact and it was only s few days before his death that his serious condition became known. He was sixty-six years of age.

Born at Bradalbane, a son of the

late Mr. Samuel Kennedy and grandson on both sides of pioneer settlers from the Isle of Skye, the deceased entered the mercandie business at an early age with his brother, the late Mr. James Ken- nedy, M.L.A., at Kenslngton. Later he formed a partnership with the late Mr. Gordon MacKay- at Brail- albane, and in 1914 removed to Charlottetown, where he establish- ed a car and farm impiemert business with Mr. Richard Grant. After Mr. Grant's death he enter- ed partnership with Mr. F. M. MacKlnnon and the late Mr. Alvin Webster. Subsequently he took ovcr the agency for the International Harvester Company, Ltd, which he conducted for several years.

1n i940 Mr. Kennedy started s ladies’ wear establishment on Queen Street, and following the success of this venture opened a men's wear store on Great George street in association with other members of his family.

He was also one of the pioneers in the silver fox industry, estab- lishing his ranch first at Bradai- bane and later at Kensington.

Mr. Kennedy was for many years a member of the City Coun- cil, and in i934 was elected Mayor by a large majority. His term of office coincided with the celebra- tion here of the Cartier quadricen- tenniai, on which occasion he was decorated with the Legion of Hon- or by the Government of France. He- also received the award Member of the British Empire and

Too Much Rain In Kansas Wheat Fields

KANSAS CITY, July 4 - (OP) 4 What started out to be a well- regulated wheat harvest in the United States Midlands is turning out to be a catch-as-catch-can af- fair.

Unseasonal rains, catching the wheat just as it was ripening, did it.

When the rains stopped the wheat situation had turned into a golden flood. The crop in Ne- braska and Colorado had caught up with the unharvested grain in Kansas. '

The result: W. O. Stark. Kan- sas State harvest supervisor who at Great Bend, Kas, is stationed in the heart of the United States wbrat country, has been swamped with demands for combines, men and trucks.

A call was sent out for Canadian combines. They should help re- lieve the crush. in Nebraska and possibly some in Kansas.

The action followed by n day Albanias decision to break off trade relations with Yugoslavia and its demand that Yugoslav econ- omic, cultural and military missions get out of the country.

Both Yugoslavia and Albania figure directly in the deliberations of the Yugoslav Communist Con- gress. -

Only a. few days ago the Com- munist central committee advanc- ed the program it would advocate at the Congress, including the formation of a Balkan bloc of Yugoslavia, Albania and Bulgaria.
