CORNWALL. Ont. (CP)-Canada and the United States Tuesday launched a five-year program to harness the rushing waters of the mighty St. Lawrence river.

A dynamite explosion on the American side of the river and a simple groundbreaking ceremony Just outside this eastern Ontario centre marked the start of a 0600.- 000.000 development to give On- tario and New York more electric power.

The start of the St. Lawrencg river power project-a 2.200.000- horsepower proposition - occurred on the 4l9th anniversary of the naming of the river by explorer Jacques Cartier. He named the river St. Lawrence because he first set eyes on it on the feast day of.the saint in 1535.

The twin ceremonies marking the start of construction were hllhllihled by speeches by Prime Minister St. L a uren t. Premier Frost of Ontario. Governor Thomas -E. Dewey of New York. Robert Saunders. chairman of the Ontario hydro electric power commission. and Robert Moses. chairman of the New York state power authority. MAJOR BENEFITS SEEN

Their main theme was that the power development would result in major benefits to Canada and the United States and had been too long helayed.

Launch 5-Year Project To Harness Si. Lawrence River; 4.000 Aiiend

Mr. Dewey described the seaway as a "strand in a strong fabric that binds the destinies of Canada and the United States."

Prime Minister St. Laurent said the power project and the St. Law- rence seaway would make a major contribution to the peace of the world. They would make the river a greater bond rather than a bar- rier between Americans and Cana- dians.

To Premier Frost and Governor Dewey, the start of the power pro- ject was an example to the world of how two nations can work to- gether for the co mon good of their peoples. Mr. aunders and Mr. Moses stressed the great econ- omlc benefits the seaway would make possible to the people of On- tario and New York.

The groundbreaking ceremony in the United States started shortly after ii a. in. EDT at the site of the Long Sauit rapids control dam, about five miles northeast of Mas- sena. N. Y.

RATE INCREASE D SCALES COMPANY

A decision that a rate increase is not warranted at the present time was rendered by the Public Utilities Commission following submimions by the Scales Hydro-Electric Com- pany. Kensington. requeatins an upward revision in its charges to consumers.

Hearings before the Commission opened January 15 and were con- cluded last month. -

The Public Utilities Commimion felt that thermattor should not be handled now. but permitted to stand over at least until after the close of the company's financial year on January 15 next.

However. a way was left open in that the findings stated that if the company is desirous of enter- ing an appeal against a refusal to grant an immediate increase. the Commission will. on request, make such an appeal possible by ordering a dismissal of the application at this time.

Mr. Seales' Submission

One of the reasons for the request for higher rates advanced by Mr. A. Austin Scales when he testified before the Commission last. Janu- ary was that due to 'llne loss' the electric power purchased from the Town of Summerside was costing his company more than they were receiving. At. that time he said his company was purchasing the power at three cents per KW!-i. but due to line loss it was costing them four cents at the customer's meter.

The Commission decision went into considerable detail regarding the company's earning base. ailm- stod expense for the current year and estimated revenues.

SAINT JOHN. N. B. (C?)- Weather officials have su gested an explanation for the weir . glow- ing ball that appeared over the Saint John area Monday night.

A spokesman said it could have been a large upper sir wesihcr balloon which had sprung a small leak. thereby dxplnining why it took so long for it to pass through an arc of about 25 degrees.

He said some of the balloons reach heights of 75.000 feet before falling. The strange colors the ob- ject took on were mostly likely caused by the rays of the setting sun. he explained.

Forecast Railway "Union Vote For SI:riI(e; Announcement Today,

MONTREAL, (CP)-All unofficial sources say a vote for a strike will be announced when the union chiefs of 145,000 non-operating railway employees meet here today.

The predictions of those on the outskirts of the con-

tract dispute-which

involves ”fringe" demands by the

employees-were in marked contrast with the principal officers in the negotiations, who declined any comment

whatever.

But well- informed sources said the reticence of the top officers merely stemmed from the tradi- tional reluctance of railwaymen to indulge in the more rough-and- tumble contract methods of such industries as mining and shipping.

"Any statements about the vote now might only cause antagonism, but I think the result was a forc- gone conclusion from the start," one observer said.

N0 PREDICTION

Frank Hall, chairman of a li- union negotiating committee. con- firmed merely that the committee will meet early today and that reports on the strike vote will be heard then. He declined any pre- diction on how the vote will go.

Canadian Pacific and Canadian National Railways top officials also declared they have no predictions on the ballot.

ISALLOWED IN APPLICATION

a plant for the diatribuiion uT electric energy in the Town of Kensington and a fairly large and very productive surrounding farm- in area. It was incorporated by Act of the Provincial Legislature passed in 1920 after its owners had taken over a hydro-electric plant situated on the Dunk River.

Among the reasons given for the decision-was the fact that up to the present time no earnings base has been determined for the com- pany on evidence grounded upon an independent appraisal and the figures "submitted in this inquiry

Company'sPoDcy Of Replacement Cosis To Continue

A decision to authorize no change in the present policy of replace- ment. costs was made by the Public Utilities Commission in the dispute between Scales Hydro-Electric Com- pany and certain of its customers. The hearing was held before the Commission July 15 and the decis- ion is that the company policy of defraylng costs of service line con- strtlction shall continue.

The decision noted that while an inconvenience may be created in having to pay replacement costs in it lump the customer. while paying for the line originally. has not paid towards uplecement during de- terioretion.

Customers Pay

"At the outset". says the com- misaion ruling. "It must be stated that no ” what method of financing is adopted the customers pay the cost. and they do so by one of two methods. first. by a direct contribution of the cost and. sec- ondly. the utility itself provides the Clbital. When the first method is adopted it is most desirable that the utility. although it is not permitted to earn any return on the caplial so furnished should set aside out of revenue each year a sum by way of a depreciation reserve to replace the line when worn out and thus the custo . while lessening the utility's investment, would notagain be required to pay a lump sum for construction of his service line.

”In this case the evidence dia- closee that the Corapanyta policy was to provide the coat of service lines up to 113 feet and collect the

Mr. Hall said it is not known yet whether any strike date might be considered at today's meeting. scheduled to begin at 10:30 a.m. EDT. - Many sources expressed doubt the government would allow the dispute to get to the strike stage. Prime Minister St. Laurent has announced an emergency session of Parliament would be called in such an event but expressed hope that such a move would be un- ncessary. A strike would paralyze both railways.

Today's meeting will hear 15 delegates from coast to coast re- port the voting of the various unions. Balloting closed Aug. 2.

N0 AUTOMATIC WALKOUT

A vote in favor of strike action would not mean an automatic walkout. but would merely give the union chiefs a mandate to set a date and make preparations. Further negotiations would not be precluded-and some sources said such talks would be likely.

They said it is probable the unions will merely announce the result of the vote. and later decide on future moves.

The unions opened negotiations for contract changes. not including wage increases. last November, but prolonged talks with the rail- ways ended in failure. Neither side accepted the findings of a con- ciliation board under Mr. Justice R. L. Kellock of the Supreme Court of Canada.

The unions' demands include sight statutory holidays; revision of vacation rules to allow a three- week vacation for id-year men: 18 days sick leave a year; and time-and-a-half for Sunday when it is a ”rest day." double time if not. Employees involved include sectionmen, freight handlers. com- mercial telegraphers. shop men. porters and others.

CPR and CNR officials have de- clared they are unable to afford the current demands. which they estimate would cost 300,000,000 a year. .

French Premier Wins Suppori

By HAROLD KING

PARIS (Reuters)-Premier Pi- erre Mendes-Frnnce scored two new political successes Tuesday by winning approval from the French national assembly for his econ- omic reform and Tunisian pro- grams. -

The energetic premier took the ssaembly,floor Tuesday night to defend his cies for North Af- rica only a ew hours after he had won an overwhelming endorsement for his drastic economic pi sals.

He declared in his second major speech of the day that the time for out-of -date colonialism was over. He said that France must have the coura e not to use the current outbrea of violence and terrorism in Morocco as an excuse for , stponlng reforms in that pro- tectorate.

Mandes-France gained a 308 to 120 victory on his demand that a full debate on his policy of home rule for Tunisia be deferred until Aug. 27. The pre- mier had said earlier that he wished this vote to be regarded as a test of the assembly's approval for his North Africa policy.
