During the past two years. al- though he had been confined to his home through illness, he con- tinued to maintain a lively inter- est in all matters pertaining to the advancement of the town for during his long and active life he hurl been instrumental in bringing to summerside many of the ad- r.1iil.1ges now enjoyed by its cit- lZ.0ll5.

Maior Chinese Uniis Break Contact In Reireal

.By Don Huth

TOKYO, June 15 - (Friday)- (AP)-Allied armor rolled over the broad Korean plain north of Pyonggang Thursday to threaten the Communists main central and eastern defences.

Front-line dispatches said Chin- ese resistance in the once-lmport- ant Chorwon-Kumhwa-Pyongyang "iron triangle" was cracked ex- cept for small but determined rearguard pockets. These made the mop-up slow and arduous.

The strongest Chinese defence was in the craggy hills leading to- ward Kumsong, 11 miles northeast of allied-seized Kumbwa.

Kumsong was believed to be a new concentration point for the enemy, on the last good north- bound road in Communist hands.

on the western from, some Allied patrols advanced up to four miles against little resistance. Al- though censorship obscured details, western front officers believed the major Chinese units had success- fully broken contact and with- drawn io the north. Allied planes hounded them along the way.

Roads along the central and eastern fronts from north of Hwachon to the Sea of Japan were in danger of an Allied envelop- ment. The deeper the United Nat- ions drive up the Pyonggang valley and Kumsong the more difficult the Reds supply and escape route becomes.

TEHRAN, June 14 - (Reuters) - The Iranian .Government to- night ordered tbs Anglo-Iranian Oil Company to pay up if it wants talks to smooth over the national- ization wrangle.

The Govemmen-t presented the company delegation. hero to start the discussions, with an ultimatum that it must band over three- quariens of all proceeds from oil eatrned since March 30. That was the day the law nalionalizing the huge British-owned company was enacted.

(It was recalled that the Brit- ish delegation leader, Ba-ell Jack- son, vice-chairman of the com- pany, said on his arrival from London Monday:

("We might be wilili-nag to con- sider a 50-50 agreement on problis with -the Iranian Government, burl. we certainly will refuse 25 per cent for us and 75 per cent for the government")

"The remainder of the moneyj must be paid over to the Iranian; Governtmen-i." ,

The British dole-ga-Lion said it could not give its reply until, Sunday morning. The delegation.-ll are due to meet again.

Nurses Graduate At

Hospital

The hope that the clay was not

too far away when nurses in train- ing at 7 standard hospitals would get some pay-cbiatric training as 1

well was expressed last night by Hon. A. W. Matlieoon, Minister of Health and Welfare. He speaking to the graduates of. nursing at Falconwood and the Infirmary.

He suggested that the Register-l ed Nurses should work in cltze; co-operation with the graduates of Falconwood and that possibly the two groups could get together and form as nurses asociation. Mr. Matheson said that here as elsewhere it is becoming more necessary for the registered nurse and the nurse attendant to work together. He told the girls last night that their training was entirely different to that in standard hospitals because of the difference in educational require- ments which are higher for entry to training in the standard hos- pitals.

It was because of this be said that the clay was not too for dis- tant when the high standards re- quired educationally of a reg- istered nurse might result in an insufficient number of girls go- ing into training.

The colorful gradiuaiin-g exer- cises were he-ld at ibe Falcon- wood Auditorium with His Honor Lieutenant Governor T. W. L. Prowse presenting the diplomas.- In congratulating the girls he! said it was a red letter day for. them. "You have finished whail we in the business world call snl apprenticeship and now you not on your own." i

Pine Presented t

After the graduates had receiv-A ed their diplomas they were pre- scnted with their plus. The grad- uaies of Falconwood bad theirs presented by Mrs. Laura Kitch- en, R.N.. while iitose of the in- firmary received them from their matron. Mrs. A. Garrick. At the conclusion of the presentation prizes were awarded for the highest standing during the two- year training period. They went to Miss Madeline Theresa Nolan. of the Falconwood graduates. and Miss Lorraine Macwilliams, of the Infirmary. Student nurses then offered each of the girls and their mentors bollquots of roses.

KQUALIZATION or FREIGHT RATES IS AIM

Expected To Benefit Boih Easi Andjfesi

By John Lelllano OTTAWA, June 15 ---(OP) - A; national policy of equal freight

rates for all ports of Canada is-

laid down in legislation brought

before Parliament today by the Government. implementing freight-rate re-

commendations of the Royal com- mission on Transportation. the legislation sets out Canada-wide

equalization of rail charges as a goal and gives the Board of Transport Commissioners wide

powers to bring it into effect. Transport Minister Chevrierls three bills received first reading in the Commons. The Minister in- dicated passage will be deferred until the fall session of Parlia-. merit to allow time for study of

the complex amendments to thei Railway Act and two other statutes.

This means that levelling of the rate differences between Canada's different areas may go into effect some time next year. The Trans- port Board has been making its can study of the problem for more than two years, and it is ex- pected to act after the empower- ing legislation has become law.

Particular Benefit to West

Introduction of the enabling measures r-ulmlnntes a long fight on their behalf by several Prov- during the post-war series of rate-increase cases. The Western Provinces, uhose general rate level is high- er than in the cast, will benefit particularly.

The Eastern Seaboard Provinces

Freight Rates Act of 19W. in the two Central Provinces, rail rates are held re- latively low by the pressure of highway and water competition. ,

For the West, besides the gener-5 al policy of equalization, the new enactments provide that the in- terior area beyond the lakehead is to get part of the benefits of low "transcontinental" rates between the East and the West coast. Rates between the East and the Western interior will not be allowed to go

one-third above the transcontin- ental tolls. Another concession in prospect

for the Wr-si-thougli not written into todav's legislation-is a sub- sldy to the railways of about 57.- 000000 a year to aid their operat- ing costs in the Northern Ontario

'twilderness" linking East and west. This subsidy, proposed by the Royal Commission and ap-

lMeat Prices Jump As Americans Buy Cattle

Heavily In Canada

By DON PEACOCK (Canadian Press Staff Writer) An Alberta rancher can sell his

beef as easily in the United States as in neighboring Saskatchewan or any other Province. And he gets a. higher price than in Canada.

A livestock authority in Toronto l in close touch with the industry across the country said Thursday that is why Canadian prices are rising. They likely will go higher.

How far Canadian meat prices climb depends mainly upon what happens during the next few months in the United States, said

this authority who preferred to remain unidentified. The U.S. last year depended

upon Canada for only about five per cent of its meat supply; this year it probably will take more.

Price jumps within the last fort- night, a period of extensive Amer- ican purchasing of Canadian meat. have been general across the coun- I try, a Canadian Press survey show- ed. They ranged from a few cents a pound to as much as 18 cents in some instances, depending on the cut. Current prices are sharpl,V above those prevailing at this time last year.

Following are a few representa- tive prlces of popular cuts of meat in leading Canadian cities (figures for two weeks ago in brackets):

Vancouver: Sirloin steak 81.30 (01.25); round steak .92 L89): lamb leg .87 (.B7); pork loin .79 L65); veal chops 31.05 (98); stew- ing beef .78 (.75).
