Royal Couple Leaving on Goodwill Tour Today; Travel By Plane To Kenya

By Mary Burnett

LONDON. Jan. 30 -(Reuters)- Princess Elizabeth an Prince Phil- lp will be off bright and early to- morrow on another global glad- handing tour-this time to Africa, Ceylon, Australia and New Zea- land.

The royal couple said their fare- wells to family and friends in pri- vate tonight. The formal leave- tnking at the airport tomorrow will probably be the traditional straight-faced affair. reflecting the dictum that royal personages ought not to show emotion.

The only possible hitch would come if three-year-old Prince Charles forgets his party manners and bids his mother farewell like my other little boy. He and his young sister. Princess Anne, won't see their parents until well into the summer.

The couple had no official on- gagements today. spending their time with their children and mak- ing a last check on luggage and travel arrangements.

ation, will be to Nairobi. where they will week resting.

and New Zeaiand. It will be a city- by-city affair similar to the Can- adian visit of last fall.

Main aim of the tour is to get the Princess and the Duke to meet as many of the peoples of the Commonwealth as possible. They have s. heavy program both in Australia and New Zealand-the tour was extended when it was an- nounced that the King and Queen would be replaced by the young couple following the King's lung operation last September.

it will be their second major tour in less than six months. Last fall they spent five weeks in Can- ada and the U.s.

Much speculation centres on the Princess' wardrobe, but so far the only hints given have been on color. But these alone have in- ziitenced British fashions. Colors Such as Ceylon green. Canberra wine and Sydney red already are popular. Others named for the trip are Tudor cream. Edinburgh rose, wildflower blue and Pacific yellow -most of them pastels.

Wreck Edit Place In 30 Below Wgiher

GRAND FALLS. N. B., Jan. 30- Ceilision of two freight trains to- day at Argosy, N. 3., caused the death of three Canadian Pacific Railway employees.

The dead: P. I. Beauileu, 49, and H. H. Dixon, 33, both sec- tionmcn of Ortonville. N. B., and Conductor H. Periey Cox, 56, Aroostook, N. B.

Argosy is three miles south of Grand Falls, on the McAdam-Ed- mundston branch line of the C.

. R.

The two sectionmen, who were in the van of one train, were killed on the spot. Cox died in hospital here late today.

The engine of one freight plow- ed into the van of the other. which had stopped to take on water. The engine jumped the tracks. the van was demolished and a carload of pulpwood caught fire.

Both freigliis had been proceed- ing to Edmundston.

Beaulleu and Dixon had been patrolling their section in as mo- tor trolley. With the temperature ranging down to 30 degrees below zero or more. they entered the van for warmth shortly before the collision.

Cox was conductor of the stand- ing train. All three victims were in the van-or caboose-when the accident occurred. A fourth rail- waymun. John Christie, Aroostook. escaped by jumping from the ca- boose seconds before the collis- sion.

Coroner F. K. Kerfson emptin- nelied a jury and then adjourned the inquest proceedings until Fri- day afternoon.

Railway officiais and R. C. M. Pu launched an investigation. Ob- servers saldvthat factors might -have. been poor visibility; result- ing from fog, and possible failure of the breaks of thexpioving train.

Lawrence Taylor mlrl Lawrence Roach, engineer and brakeman of the approaching train, jumped clcar into snowbanks when they couldn't stop the train in time to avoid a collision.

Thrown off the line. the loco- motive was badly twisted. Flames destroyed the puipwoocl-laden box behind the caboose.

Dixon is survived by his widow. and Beauileu by his widow and four children.

Commencing tomorrow. Febru- ary l, the Canadian National Rail- way iruck service in King's County for less than carload freight and express will leave Charlottetown at 6 am. daily in- stead of 9 a.m. as at present. thus providing a. much more expediti- ous service than hitherto avail- able for patrons using these facilities.

Official announcement of the change in hour was made by C.N.R. regional and divisional headquarters at Moncton and Charlottetown yesterday.

The truck service was inaug-

urated last October with five new

C.N.R. trucks of 4-ton cartage capacity. and carried the mails to Kings County until the Latter service was discontinued by the Post Office Department two weeks ago.

The starting hour from Char- lottetown had been delayed until 9 am. toconnect with morning air mail reaching Charlottetown by Flight Two. Now that l.c.I. freight and express only are be- ing carried. the earlier morning start has been decided upon, and it is expected will prove of great additional advantage to shippers and the public generally.

N. Y. Stocks In Sharp Decline

NEW YORK, Jan. 30 -(AP) - The stock market took its deepest drop in about three months today as a selling wave in the ciosins minutes of the session forced prices down a few cents to 32 a share.

The activity of the market ac- celerated as the selling wave built; up and the high speed ticker tape dropped behind floor quot- ations.

Volume hit 1.880.000 shares.

The Associated Press average of 60 stocks dropped 31.30, the larg- est decline since October 2'! last. when the averages fell sl.50.

Traders attributed the weakness to "9. minor technical reaction" to the long sustained upward climb of the market.

They did not think it was a serious development nor did they believe it was a lasting trend.

Steels, which had been a. few cents to around Oi a share higher during most of the session. were dragged down with the remainder of the market. But their final losses were small.

U. S. steel dropped 25 cents and Bethlehem. Republic and Young!- towri lost so cents each,

llnprecetlehieti Move On Part Of Home Fleet

IONDON, Jan. so -(AP)-

Britainls Home Fleet will join the Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet at Malta in March for combined exercises. the admiralty announc- ed tonight. .No explanation was included in the announcement, but it was understood the sea order was prompted by Britain's concern over the still tense situation in Egypt.

Battle units of the Mediterran- ean Fleet have been ordered to proceed from Malta to points ex- tending from Libya and Cyprus island to the Suez Canal.

That the Home Fleet should go to the Mediterranean for the ex- ercises is almost unprecedented. Usually the Mediterranean Fleet Joins the Home Fleet in British waters for manoeuvres.

Each fleet includes about an warships but they don't have the same battleship strength.

Britain has not dropped ,plans for the protection of thousands of British subjects living and working in Egypt; if it develops that the Egyptian Government cannot guarantee their safety. govern- ment spokesmen have said. Pre- sumably such plans include evac- uation by sea and air.

British sources have made it clear that official 0 inion is that violence may expl e again in Egypt despite the comparative quiet since installation of a new Egyptian Government and impo- sition of Egyptian martial law.

TORONTO. Jan. -(CP)- Vice- Admiral E. R. Mainguy, chief of the naval staff, has accepted an invitation to become honorary presideit of the Navy League of Canada, David H. Gibson, pres- ident of the league, announced today. The league. jointly with the R. C. N., sponsors the Royal Can- adian Sea. Cadets.

More than lilo miles of load were surfaced in Canada's various national parks during 1951.

OTTAWA, Jan. 30 - (C?) - Four Canadian naval officers are expected to be posted to the head- quarters of Admiral Lynde 8. Mc- Cormick, named today to be su- preme Allied naval commander of the North Atlantic.

Canada's naval chief. Vice-Ad- miral E. R. Mainzuy. is slated to go to Washington Tuesday for discussions arising from the ap- pointment and will likely see Ad- miral Mccormick at that time.

Admiral Mccoz-mick, directing a big U5.-Canadian exercise off Canada's Northern Atlantic coast. was named today to the N.A.T.O. post which came into being only after a lot of wrangling between the US. and Britain.

Churchill Reports To House On North American Visit

IJDNEDON. Jan. 30 -(CP) - Prime Minister Churchill told the House of Commons today that his recent call for "prompt, resolute and effective" action if a Korean truce is violated does not commit Britain to full-scale war with Com- munist China.

Churchill said he still hopes that a cease-fire agreement wiilbe reached in Korea and, "being reached, will be kept." He said the question of what to do if a truce is made and then broken by Red China still is hypothetical. but he discussed it in Washington and agreed it would create "a very serious situation."

The Prime Minister said he made no "definite or formal corn- mitrnents" to President Truman on what action Britain would take against the Chinese if a truce is ruptured. but be implied such commitments were not necessary.

Recalls Words

Reporting on his North Ameri- can visit, Churchill recalled his words before the United States Congress Jan. 17-"Our two countries are agreed that if the truce we seek is reached only to be broken our response will be prompt, resolute and effective."

"These words 'prompt, resolute and eifective' did not represent any new designs arrived at during our visit." Churchill said. "They do express frankly and fully the spirit in which we shall face our difficulties together".
