MONTREAL, Nov. 24 -(GP) "- The old-time rallying cry once was "there's herrin' in the bay, bye."

But now the -"byes." and the girls, too, from Ecum Secum and Shubenacadie, Tatamougouche and Blue Rocks. Napadogan and Har- mony Junction can rally together for a "down east" gathering right here in the heart of Upper Can- ado.

There might not be a herring in the house. but there will be sea- food-and most of all a. chance to reminisce about thunderheads sweeping up the Fundy and the way the Tantramar looks at dusk.

All this has come about because a couple of homesick Maritimers. a. trifle weary of Montreails traffic and bustle, got together to re- unite the expatriate Maritimers now living in the city.

Dr. J. E. Comeau. a. one-time college professor in Truro, N. 5.. and Stan Lel3lanc from the world's tuna-capital, Wedgeport. are the men who decided Maritimers should keep in contact with one another here.

The members had the privilege of hearing from one of the new Canadians-Mrs. seiwert. a Lat- vian who was born in Riga, the capital of Iatvis-n city 750 years old. i she told a thrilling story-how she and her family had to flee from Latvia into Polish territory during the first Russian invasion.

When the official '-opening does arrive though. Maritimers will find lounges where they can get to- gether for talk. 9. room for dancing, a snack bar (where cod will be tmnsformed fromautllatarian dish to a delicacy), a banquet room and spot for organizations to hold meetings.

Already alumni of Mount Allison University have enquired about holding their Montreal meetings there.

One touch-always to keep ll couple of rooms. equipped with showersf for travellers from the East whd arrive here to find their hotel accommodations gone.

But these things will be learned after the Dec. 5 opening. And about that night: ,

OTTAWA, Nov. 24 -(CP)--'- Prime Minister St. Iaurent said tonight he will leave tomorrow for the London conference of Com- monwealth prime ministers with the hope that some "progress can be; made in expanding world trade."

speaking in the Commons. Mr. St. Laurent said it would be wrong to give" the impression that the conference can by. itself make sterling convertible or remove all the roadblocks to trade.

George Drew. Progressive Con- servative leader. and M. J. Cold- well, COP leader. said Canada should do the utmost to revive trade with the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth. Canada was too dependent on the United States market.

Mr. st. Laurent said he and Finance Minister Abbott will en- deavor to work with other com- monwealth representatives to find ways to remove restrictions the United Kingdom and common- wealth found it necessary to im- pose.

"We are not going to attempt to tell them how they should so -- bout it," said Mr. St. Laurent.

"Canada looks upon the Indian proposal as the one more likely to achieve the purpose we are all after - that is an armistice in Korea on honorable terms."

Martin is expected to speak in the committee tomorrow or Wed- rtesday.

Acheson's insistence on further amendments. brought the possibil- ity that Indla might back away from its own plan if more changes are carried through. But some western delegates expressed belief the proposal, as it stands might be passed by the Assembly with the Americans abstaining although such a. move could cause difficul- ties in getting co-operation from the UN" negotiators at rsnmun iom - American military men acting in the name of the UN. .Acueson told Vishlnsky and the committee that "no nation, no matter how powerful. can long stand against the moral force of the world.”
