8'1‘. LOUIS. Dec. lll-—(AP)— With a bargain counter overload- ed wlthvaluablee, St, Louis Cur- dlnals could stage one of the big- gest January clearance sales in baseball history.

The only hitch ia that propriet- or Bam Breadon isn't sure he's going to open the doors.

. ost every one of the other 1B maJor league clubs has been trying for months to get first choice on such- prize packages as Walker Cooper, Marty ion, Whitey" Kurowski, Jimmy Brown,

vb Enos Slaughter and others.

The clubs know that the Cardi- Jlaih, weighed down with at least '50 m or league calibre players, must pose of some choice par- cels on the o n market. I On. factor n Cardinal reluct- Anca- to talk business ls die Dyer, the new manager. He wunta to see the Red Birds properties in training before letting them sliphaway.

at was Marion, the brilliant ahortsto for whom Chicago Cubs suppo ly oflered $310,000. The new. Card boas told Brendon‘ he'd Iign. if Marlon would stay at least a season. Dyer signed.

Another brake on possible deals is the uncertainty as yet as to who will be available for the com- ing season, Som of the brightest stars including tan Musial, Coop- er, George Munger and possibly Slaughter may not be ready to exchange their armed forces um.- forms for baseball garb for an- otherysar.

OTTAWA, Dec. 18~An essential ate towards world peace “is tho relilzef of human suffering occas- ioned by war and the restoration of countries physically damaged 1% war," the Speech from the rone read at the prorogatlon of the first session of .the 20th Parliament said today. "To that end, the further ap- propriations you have made for international relief and rehabili- tation will be of the utmost ser-

read by Chief Justice Thibadeau Rinfret, deputy to the Governor- General.

Carfiidds determination to play her full part in the maintenance of international peace and secur- ity had been expressed by Parlia- ment's approval of the United Nations charter. ' A Efforts to stimulate the organ- sion of external trade and.» the restoration of a world economy have been intensified,

“These ends will he greatly fur- thered by the vastly increased ap- propriations you havc made for export credits to Allied countries and by your approval of Car-ad- ian participation in the internat- ional monetary fund and the bank of reconstruction and develop- ment," sald the speech. “Negotiations are under way to extend export credits to the Unit- ed Klngdom. Far-reaching pru- posals on trade and employment for consideration by an internat- ional conference have been ad- vanced by the United States Gov- ernment and now are before you. My Ministers welcome the pres- entation of these proposals."

, The speech mentioned themcct- lngs between the Dominion and the Provinces with a view to reaching new financial proposals. It dealt briefly with the repat- riation and demobilization of the forces and recalled that interim hr nches of the armed services were being established pending a decision as to thg size of a perm- anent force.

It listed the most important of the legislation passed by parlia- ment and dealing with domestic affairs. It said that war restric- tions were being removed as rap- idly as was possihlc without occa- sionlng inflation.

A special committee would be reconstituted at the next session to continue the examination of legislation for inclusion in a pro- polaed- veterans’ charter.

‘My Ministers were gratified at the approval given to the proposal that Canada should possess a dis- tinctive national flag," said the Speech. "At the next session. they will propose that the select com- mittee of both Houses be recon. stituted in order to complete the task of considering a suitable dc- slgn for a Canadian flag."

The speech ooncludedz- . "On taking leave of you at the close of this momentous year, I pray that Providence may con- tniue to bless our country, and to guide the nations of the world in their efforts to establish an en- during peace."

At one stage in his tastianony, Meyer said he told his men there was nothing honorable about be-

ing captured.

‘ The prosecution earlier had in- roduced evidence in the form of a statement by a Polish soldier in the German Army that Meyer had ordered the shooting of Canadian prisoners at his h quarters at the ancient Alhbery Ardenne near Cacn June B. 1044. Hut the followind day the soldier. Jan Jesionek. failed to codifirm that Meyer had imued such or- ders. although he said he saw seven prisoners shot.

Television Suit Brought Against Paramount Pictures

(By Th4; Associated Press)

NEW YORK, Dec. iii-The De- partment of Justice filed a czvil injunction suit in federal court today charging Paramount Pict- ures, Inc, and two others with anti-trust. violations in manufao ture and sale of “two revolution- ary television systems" by which televislon can be shown onscreens as large as those in motion pict- ure houses.

The other defendants named the Television Productions. Inch and its president, Paul Raibourn; General Precision Equipment Corp, and its president, Earle G. Hines; Scophony Corp. of Amer- ica and its president. Arthur Lev- ey, and Scopho y Ltd.. a British concern which took out the basic patentsin 1037 and 1930.

‘The Government charged the defends ‘s divided the world into two n0n-t30mpe‘iiive areas sothat Scophony, Ltd., would not com- pets within the western hemis- phere; that General Precision and Television Productions would not compete within the eastern, and that Scophony Corp. of America would not compete in either.

Attorney-General Tom Clark. in whose name the suit was filed. said Television Productions was wholly owned by Paramount, and General Precision was the largest single stockholder in 20th Cen- tury-Fox Corp. He said stock of Scophony Corp. of America was owned and controlled by General Precision, ‘Delevision Productions and Bcophony, Ltd.

The Government stated the Scophony Inventions, including systems called "supersonic" and "sklatron", involved the use of an outside source of light similar to that used in projection of motion pictures and thereby the images could be enlarged greatly beyond those of the television system now commonly in use.

Joseph Borkin, Department of Justice lawyer. said in a stato- ment: "In addition to the usual restraints on competition which flow from illegal cartel arrange- ments, as a result of this conspir- acy, commercial development in this country of an important all- vance in the television art has been postponed and has been un- necessa lly delayed."

Mr. Levey said in a statement he had "the greatest respect" for the Attorney-General! judgment and welcomed "his action to chr- ify the issue." ,
