For European Defences

By John M. nlshiower NASHINGTON, July 31 -.(AP) A fresh crop of economic troubles

nmong the Atlantic Allies raised questions today as to their ability to carry through plans for the buildup of defence forces under Gen. Matthew B. Ridgway's com- mand in Western Europe.

The goal for this year, as laid down in a meeting of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization Coun- cil of Lisbon last February, is 50 divisions in being or available for immediate mobilization. It now is b:.- no means certain. according to the best information here, that this goal can be reached.

A later goal for the buildup dur- ing 1953 was set tentatively at Lis- bon but never made public. The expectation now is that will have to be revised downward.

Controversy between the United States and France over the use of American dollars to finance arms production through purchases in France has focused attention on the situation. But officials here are also concerned about the ability of other countries, notably Britain. to come through with their share of contributions to the joint army.

statements of British officials this week em hasised Britain's de- termination , live within its in- come by taking a series of trade and production measures which includes a "new pattern" for the defence effort. The aim is to in- crease the output of goods for ex-

port.

Since the number of fuily-equip- pcd divisions which the Western Powers can put into the field at any one time-for example by the end of 1953-depends on the num- ber of weapons they can produce for those divisions, the goals set up at Lisbon last February are rlc':irly in doubt. informed officials agree.

informants said that the 50-dlv- lslon target represented a maxi- mum-effort schedule which is probably capable of achievement only if all goes well.

Tappingiajor - Sources Of I Uranium Ore

By Frank Carey

WASHINGTON, July 31 - (AP) - The United States Atomic En- ergy Commlssion disclosed today that it is tapping major resources of uranium.

announcement apparently means gains for the United States in the atomic race with Russia since the precious fissionable metal is the key to the enterprise.

The commission told Congress that (a) an agreement has been reached with Australia to supply the vital ore to the United States; (b) by-product uranium from South African gold fields soon will be coming for American use; (c) Canada, long a major uranium supplier, has put additional mill- ing facllities into operation at the Eldorado mine on Great Bear Lake. and (d) home production is speeding up.

The 12th semi-annual report from the commission also report- ed "substantlal-progress" in de-

Predict Mild Of Inflation '

OTTAWA. July Ill -(OP) -- Canadian economists predicted to-

day that Canada may experience a.

mild wave of inflation uurlng the next six months, bringing ft grad- ual swell in the price structure.

However. they said they do not believe this will cause any new rash of government credit and monetary restrictions implemented after fighting broke out in Korea to help 'sten1 a severe inflationary trend. Most of these restrictions now have been eliminated.

An indication of the gradual in- crease likely will be given tomor- row when the cost-of-living index for June is made public.

With prices for some food prices, particularly eggs, stiffening, it ap- peared likely that the index may climb again, following at three- fifth-of-a-point boost during May, the first rise since last December.

The index, based on 1935-30 prices equalling 100, now stands at 187.3, up from 186.7 during

April. The gradually-stiffening

Wave . In Canada

prices expected during the last half of the year may push the prices barometer back to the peak of 1915 reached in December.

In Washington top United States price officials were reported Wed- nesday as saying that though liv- ing costs in the U. S. are at a rec- ord high. there is every indication that prices in many fields will be headed upward soon.

The main cause in the U. S. and in Canada for the threat to price stabilization is widespread demands by labor for wage boosts. Wage in- creases usually mean higher prices for the commodities which the manufacturer produces.

The U. S. congress has exempted fruits and vegetables from price control and American officials pre- dicted this opens the way for high- er prices. Canada, during the off- season winter months, imports mil- lions of dollars worth of American fruits and vegetables. Any boost in price would be reflected in higher living costs.

veloping improved atomic ,. during the' last half-year, and "progress" toward atomic-powered aircraft.

The evidence that Americas home-grounds uranium production and exploration program has pick- ed up steam - with more to come - appeared in this section of the report:

"Domestic production is increas- ing and new sources, both foreign and domestic, are nearly ready for initial production."

Observers speculated that assur- ance of additional foreign aid in the uranium ore line are behind the commission's newly-approved 53.500.000.000 expansion program.

The view is that the raw ma- terials resources must indeed be potentially great or else the A. E. C. would not venture into such a major expansion program which will depend basically on .raw

uranium.

As usual, the A. E. C. was stingy with details an atomic weapons development. But the mere fact that it made statements about not being able to release much publicity prompted spec- ulations that the "substantial pro- gress” tag represented some truly major advances.

Duck Hunting Season

The West;

P. E. I. Remains 57 Days

OTTAWA, July 31 -(CPJ-Good news for hunters and farmers in Western Canada was contained ic- day in annual regulations fixing the 1952 duck-hunting seasons for all provinces.

Because of improved waterfowl conditions in western Canada, the open seasons will be extended in Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and British lcolumbia. The bag limit will be increased in Saskatbh- CWBII.

For the first time, farmers will be allowed to obtain permits to scare ducks and other-migratory birds damaging their crops. It has been proved that if waterfowl ale scared away from fields at their first approach they will tend to leave these fields alone. but if they are allowed to settle and eat grain for a day or two it is almost im- possible to scare them away even by killing many of the flock.

In the Central and Eastern Pro- vinces and in the Northwest Terri- tories the length of open seasons and the bag limit remain unchang- ed. Regulations covering the Laue of fire-arms in hunting waterfowl re- main the same as. last year.

The 8,000-word regulations, the result of agreement with the pro- vinces and the United States. were passed recently by the federal cab- inet and issued by the Wildlife service branch of the Resources Department.

Dates of the open seasons and the length of the seasons vary from province to province. The season will vary in length from is to 69

TORONTO. July ill -(0P)- A plea for serious consideration of Russian charges that lhe United Nations have com itted "atroci- ties" in Korea was made today by India.

India's High Commissiner to Canada. Shrl R. R. Saksena, took the rostrum at the general com- mission of the International Red Cross conference to inject a note of mediation between East and West in a battle which has turned the conference into a pzllitical for- uni.

Mr. Saksena urged the confer-

ence not to brush off the Soviet bloc's charges. He confessed he was confused hy conference meetings which so far have consisted mainly of Communist charges and hasti- ly-passed votes ignoring them. He proposed that the conference adopt the attitude of the Belgian delegation, which yesterday draft- ed a resolution urging the confer- ence to bring East and West to- gether to form an impartial body to investigate Russia's charges.

Charges Take Up Time

The charges have occupied at least 75 per cent of the conferenccfsl, time since it opened July Ki. Rus-l sia has opposed the International Committee of the Red Cross-a group of 35 Swiss citizens and the original nucleus of the Red Cross -35 being too "partial and non- neutral" to investigate its charges of U.

Transport Minister Is Favorably Impressed By

Presentations

hderal Minister of Tnnsport, Hon. Lionel Ohevrier, said last night that he had looked over the Charlottetown Airport facilities and believed that something might be done. However, he did not com- mit himself at the time pending the presentations to be made to him by members of the City Coun- cil, the Charlottetown Board of Trade and others.

Following a meeting held in City Hall, the Minister said he was fav- orably impressed with the ideas presented for the extension of the runways at the local airport but would necessarily, have to await the report of the engineers of his department. The impression he left with his hearers was that he was personally most sympathetic to the proposals and would do everything possible to further the project when he brought it before the Federal Cabinet.

STOCK!-IOLM, July Til -- (Reu- ters) - Six Swedish Communists-- one a woman - were jailed today for spying for Russia and making plans to help the Red armies in the event of an invasion of Sweden. One man was acquitted.

The seveif were charged with what the prosecution called "the most serious crime in Sweden's his- tory."

The few public sessions during the six-week trial revealed their plans.
