However. civil defence officials did not regard the lotting as grave or widespread.

Public health authorities de- clared the Cameron area unin- lsabttable. probably for three weeks at least. They said the very air was contaminated. "Every disease is a threat if the people return now." said Don Stout of Atlanta. Ga.. director ii the Red Cross operations in the area.

lHONOR jND PLEASURE

Significantly. Diefenbaker added "it would afford Canadians abid- ing honor and pleasure to have the Commonwealth prime ministers meet in Ottawa.”

Turning to world affairs, the prime minister said the enormous surge of nationalism in Asia and Africa is probably the dominant

eral pyres for the carcasses.

Portable pumps drew water from deep wells in a race to save 15.000 to 20.000 cattle that sur- vived the storm. They were not expected to live more than four days unless their plight was re lievcd. Already. many were re- ported "feverish and dying of thirst." ..The human burial problem was more complicated. A mass grave wns "prepared in sandy soil east of Lake Charles for unidentified Negro victims of the hurricane. their passing marked by a com- mon headstone.

The fury of the great storm separated families in the last moments of their lives. For lack of identification. the common grave perpetrated the same un- avoidable sadness ln death.

The speech climaxed a busy day for the Canadian leader. He at- tended a morning conference of Commonwealth leaders on defence and disarmament, lunched with Premier Nehru of India and placed a wreath at the bust of Sir John A. Macdonald. whom he described as the founder both of Confederation and "the Common-

communism and Western democ- racy and gravely" complicated that historical struggle itself.

SIGNIFICANT PATH

"The Commonwealth path to In- dependence has been particularly significant for all of us in the past decade because it has been a part. and a most constructive part. of the great awakening of Asia and Africa."

It was in this creation of inde- pendent nations in Asia and Africa and in creating a bond between them and those who emerged to . national status at an earlier time. - that the Commonwealth processes had been playing a new and im- portant role.

In the last I0 years the "growing up" of the Commonwealth had been particularly rapid and sig- nificant. ' .
