Well Drilled lo 600 feet At Summerside

The well being bored for the Summerside Water and Sewerage Commission at the stand pipe on Central Street North has reached 660 feet and tests were commenced yesterday to dete-rmlne its capa- city at that depth. The tests had to be discontinued when some of the testing machinery broke and will be resumed in a few days.

This well is being bored to in- crease the water supply of the Town so that it will be adequate in the case of a serious fire. Trask Well Co. Ltd. are the contractors.

When the well is completed and its capacity has been determined a suitable pump will be ordered and it is expected that it can not be delivered for severallmonths after the order is placed.-S.

Chinese And Korean Reds Avoid Battle

TOKYO. Nov. 24 - (Friday) - (AP) - Peace rumors flew Thurs- day during a strange lull on the Korean war. front after the Chinese Communists released 27 United States prisoners of war.

Ground action was at 3 mini- mum.

Allied patrcls ranged far ahead of their lines with little or no op- position. some found the country clear of Reds. Others came arrow; Reds who fled without firing a shct.

Whole units of United Nations -troops advanced from one-half to four miles.

Chinese and Korean Communists continued their unexplained pull- backs on the northwestern from, Small groups of North Koreans from the northeastern front fled across the Yaiu River to the safety of Manchuria.

There was no concrete basis for the peace rumors -- only the unprecedented release of the American prisoners 'and the continued Red pullbaclu.

Col. .Vl.P. Echols. Gen. MacAr- thur's information officer. denied there was any peace talk "at this level."

State secretary. Dean Aohesoii said Ln washlngtcn Wednesday thxtt the creation of a buffer zone be- tween North Korea and Red China's Manchuria had been discussed with friendly governments but that no agreement had been reached.

This led to speculation that the question of peace in Korea might be discussed at Lake success with a Chinese Communist delegiiticn en route to the United Nations head- quarters.

Prisoners Quoted

The freed American prisoners said their captors told them "the Chin- ese do not want to fight. the Am- ericans. The prisoners expressed the view that they were released as a propaganda. move. High-ranking American Officers in Korea said they were inclined to agree.

American authorities wondered if it meant. the Peiping Government was ready to-make concessions.

The answers might lie among these possibilities: '

1. The Chinese know they can't protect the Yalu River power plants by ground forces alone. They know that if full-scale war developed, A!- Lied air power could smash the plants in A matter of minutes.

2. The Chinese Government may be ready to accept guarantee: by President Truman and U. N. offic- ials that the Manchurian frontier will be respected.

3. The Chinese may feel they are in position to bargain.

MIcAx'thur is reported to have told the U. N. Commission on Korea that the war would be over by the end of this you, with or without the aid given the North Koreans by the Chinese Reds. This could not be confirmed.

Mr. Cannon said he was a small share- holder in the structure which is known as the Farmers' Abattoir Company Limited building. He had assisted in removing similar forms Wbroxunately six weeks previous- ly. and he had done this work when there was no other work to be done.

In answer to questions by the jury foreman. Mr. Cannon statezl that the concrete had been poured by Mr. Wheatley. his brother. Mr. Weatherbie and himself.

He gave as the mixture used in the concrete. 4 of Belle River gravel. 1 of sand. and ii-5 of cement.

H.

He stated that he had examined sec- tions of the fallen ceiling and be thought it a very poor mixture. Samples of the concrete wore intro- duced as evidence. and after break- ing lt.

New Atomic Information is Released

OTTAWA. Nov. 23 .-(OP) - Cimada. lhe United States and Britain tonight anounced an im- portant new release of secret atomic information and predicted it. "will hasten atomic energy de- velopment. in the three countries."

The declassificniion move. among other things, will take the wraps off Chalk River's first radioactive pile or reactor. the zeep. the older and less important of its two re-

actors. The other, the NRX, will remain bPhlI1d the security cur- tain.

The announ:emerit. also means. technically at. least, that the way is open for private institutions to step into the iitomie field by building their own low-power re- search l'P3Ci0FS such as the zcep because the information covers the design. construction and op- eration of that type of reactor.

But atomic officials here say they can't foresee either Canadian industry or llI'iil'BrSities building their own research reactors. For industry. there would be no money in it. For the universities. the costs and the difficulties would be

years 350' mm m" he had hem; formation "will be useful largely
