Coun. Foster asked whether the Queen. Charlotte High School had been built to accommodate the congestion in Prince Street School and West Kent School. Dr. Lea re- plied that it relieved only the con- gestion in these two schools. Dr. Des said there were two vacant rooms at Queen Charlotte at the present time.

Councillor Gaudet asked how long Queen Charlotte could ac- commodate the estimated ' to which Dr. Lea replied about two years. He said the fact that child were remaining longer in school since the high school was built was one of the reasons for the ticipated increase.

"in doing so we would be mak- . . . ing at least some progres in put- ting international action behind international words," he said in a Commons foreign policy speech which dealt mainly with the Mid- dle East, the Commonwealth. the United Nations and the North At-

-with the consent of the coun- tries involved.

He referred to organization and operation of the UN force in Egypt and then asked:

"Why should we not. therefore. on the basis of this pexperiencc consider how a more per- manent UN machinery of this kind might be created for use in similar situations as required?

"What the UN now would seem to need for these limited and es- sentially police functions is per- haps not so much a force in being aa'an assurance that members would be prepared to contribute contingents when asked to do so. to have them ready and utganized for that purpose, with some ap- propriate central UN machinery along the lines of that which has

NOT PRACTICAL Meanwhile, Health Minister Martin. just returned from an Asian tour. told a press confer- ence that be doesn't believe a permanent UN police force is a practical proposition at this time. He added that there is an "honest difference of opinion" on the mat- ter between Prime Minister St. Laurent and himself. Mr. Pearson said UN supervi- slon in the Middle East. with the UN force stationed on Israel-Arab borders and perhaps for a time in the Gaza srtip. "might help to ensure the security of the nations concerned." Not only should borders be made secure. Freedom of nevi!!-

the Gulf of Aquaba-Israel's only outlet to the Indian Ocean should also be guaranteed. Mr. Pearson said the "ideas behind" P. sidcnt Eisenhower's Middle East doctrine are wel- comed by Canada "as evidence of the increased interest of the United States in the Middle East in terms of both defence and econ- omic aid for the development of the area."

He added that he should point out that the U.S. declaration did not deal with conflict between non-Communist states in the Mid- dle East nor with Communist sub- version brought about by non-mil- itary means.

"Welcome as is this declaration of the acceptance by the U.S. of

in this connection, Mr. Pearson said the NATO menus in Part- last month began the process of restoring and strengthening co- operation among the Western Big Three "after the strains and in- terruptions" caused by the Suns crisis.

NATO required a sustained will and desire to work out th consultation ,. "cies which take into account the common in; terests of members of the alli- ance.

As the clear moonlit sky became hazy with cloud last night the temperature began to moderate rapidly. In the two and a half hours previous to midnight. the mer- cury rose from a hitting 13 below to 6 below at the Radio Range. The highest temperature of the day was 6 below after a low of 18.1 below on Sunday night.

Indications are for the tempe . turn to rise very little above the midnight mark today with the pre- cipitation amounting only to a few snow liurrles. it was a week ago today that the province found it- self under a nice 17 inch blanket of snow and great drifts.
