In announcing the additions to his cabinet on Saturday Premier Jones said he would be giving up the Premiership ”bclore too long." He added that it would not be "very soon." He was taking his colleague. Mr. Mac- Kinnon, into the cabinet because his services were needed right away. When his own resign-atton took place Mayor 8. Earle Mac- Donald could come in to even up the representation in Queen's County.

The Premier added that he has made no other Cabinet changes or portfolio appointments at this time. The portfolio of Educa- tion. for example is still unfilled He intimated that he left. further appointments in the Cabinet. to whoever will succeed to the Premiership when he retires.

Hon. Mr. MacKinnon entered provincial politics when he con-

tested the district of Fourth Queenain the Provincial, Election 'in 1936. That was the same year in which the Premier himself started his active political career. Both were successful on that oc- casion and neither have suffered a defeat.

Mr. Ma.cKinnon was a member of the Government without port- folio in the period 1939 to .1943 under the Campbell administra- tion.

Mr. Clark first entered provin- cial politics when he was elected as a representative for Third King's in 1947. He was re-clect- ed in the election held earlier this year.

He came to the Provincial field with a background of experience in civic politics. He was Mayor of the town of Montague. for ex- ample in 1040.

He received his degree of Bach- elor of Commerce at Dalhousie University. Upon the compleliim

Opposition To Reds In China Seen In Reports

HONG KONG. June 16-(Reulw ers)- The Chinese Communists are calling for greater efforts in liqui- dating those who oppose the Red regime.

They say that guerillas, secret agents and others variously de- scribed as ”counter- revolution- aries" are still active and causing immense damage to Government property.

iiThese counter revolutionaries must be exterminated," the offic- ial press says.

The new Communist demands follow the shooting of thousands by firing squads after hysterical

Stunting Pilot Killed . At Uplands Air Show

OTTAWA, June 17 - (CP) - A thrilling air show came to a tragic end Saturday when a stunting pilot was killed in the blazing wreckage of an R.'C. A. F. Harvard trainer.

Flt. Lt. George Vrooman. the 34-year-old pilot. had cunpletod sevanl loops and came roaring down over the Upiamk Airport field at a height of about 50 feet. apparently attemptln- a slow roll. when the single-engine plane

gathered to watch the show. staged by the Ottawa Flying Club to wind up "Flying Clubs Week.” The crash occurred about I P.M. EDT. The show was hell- ed immediately.

Statloned at nearby llocirclifle Airport. Flt. Lt. Vrooman was considered one of the Air Force's beet pilots. A veteran of nine yeou' service. he had piloted llxiornol Affairs Minister Pen-son in his round-the-world flight about 18 montiu ago.

..:..........:.-:-- officially-directed public trials. Admission of widespread counter revolutionary activities appear to belie statements in other official contexts that those oppos- ing the regime have now been re-

duced to "small numbers of die- bards." For instance. the Peiping Jen

Min Jlh Pao, "citing a few cases," reported recently that:

1. Counter revolutionaries pois- oned wells in Yunan Province and caused the death of 000 persons; that they poisoned another 3.000 in North Ssechwan; and that sim- ilar poisonings had occurred in various parts of tithe Northeast. East China. South China and other localities."

2. A feudal landlord destroyed a building in East szcchwan and murdered five communist. offlo- ittls and N others who were meet- ing inside.

3. Araoniats who set fire to the city of Linglihg, in 1-lunan. were caught when plotting to destroy Ch'lyang, in the same province.

4. Arsonists destroyed a factory and a workers" dormitory at Tait- slhat-, in Manchuria.

The list continued with further examples of arson and sabotage.

5. Arsonists destroyed 200 houses at Paohsu. in shansl.

By their own figures, the Comm- unists ahotv that. up to the pres- ent, opposition has been numeric- ally strong.

The validity of both the Prov- incial and Dominion legislation under the Marketing Act is to be referred by the Provincial Govern- ment to the Supreme Court of Prince Edward Island. it was learned on good authority yester- day. t t

The Marketing Act, which was. introduced as Bill 82 and became. Chapter 16 of the Federal Statutes of 1949, enables marketing boards to prohibit dealings outside the Province in which they have been constituted. This is believed to be

-the first occasion in which the val- jidlty of the lsuhject

, PARIS, June lrl -- (Monday! - (AP) - Gen. Charles De Gaulle's new party. lightin-g its first gen- eral election, appeared early to- day to have scored enough votes to endanger thccoalltion of ten- tre parties that governs France.

The Communists. although still the courrtry's big party in num-

Legislature. has conducted a humi- ness for many years. Mr. Clark now manages the store at Monit-

agile.

Mr. St. John first entered pro- vincial politics when he success- fully contested the by-election in First King's in July of i949. His opponent at that time was Melvin J. McQuaid who was also his opponent in the Provincial election this year. '

He is a partner in the firm of Townsend and St John in Souris which deals in farm machinery.

Mr. St. John also had a back- ground ln civic politics. He is I former member of the Souris Town Council and was chairman of the committee on Streets and Property.

Pelain's life Term Commuled

PARIS. June 17 - (AP) amas- ident Vincent Auriol today com- muted formcr Marshal Henri Phil- ippe Pcutaln's life prison sentence to permanent confinement in I hospital.

He directed that the ailing. 95- year-old soldier be tran-Jerred from his prison cell on the -isle D'Yeu to a hospital on the main- land as soon as he is fit enough

. to be moved.

His decision to do this reached June 8. but was announc. ed only today, five minutes after the polls closed in the French national election. The delay in announcing it. was decided upon to forestall any prc-election re- pcrcussions.

Mrs. Petaln who has been liv- mg in a hotel on the isle D'Ycu to be near her liusban-d. refused to accompany a government of- ficial when he went. to inform the Marshal of Auriol's not.

She said she could only on Pctoin's statement his trial: '

"A Marshal of France asks par- don of no one." ,

The aged Marshal. hero of Var. dun in the First. World War and sentenced to life imprisonment for treason after the Second World War. has been gravely ill for months in the grim island pri- son in the Atlantic. Many times doctons have despalred of his life but he hung on.
