Mr. wass' cattle have not yet Wu destroyed. but they may be '0-7”ll"0l3'. said Mr. Gardiner. H0 Illd the was cattle. even though they had recovered, were being destroyed because of the fear that they might have had foot-and-mouth disease and be carriers. But, before they were destroyed, the government wanted to try to trace the outbreak to its source. Mr. Gardiner sold the tests of Bruenijen would not prove that he had brought the disease from Germany. But they would prove whether he had been in contact with the disease. For that reason. it was important to determine whether he was carrying the virus. There were a number of suspic- ions-lhat the disease came from the Burns plant. that it might have come from the Wass farm or that it might have come from the let; other farms found to be infect- hom M).-xloo But. said Mr. Gardiner, Mexico. the site of a current foot-and- mouth plague, was directly south of the outbreak in Saskatchewan. "How it got between those two points I don't know," he said, but he suggested it was more logical to suspect that it came from Mexico than from an immigrant. Birds might have carried it into Saskatchewan. since it was known that birds were carriers. "It got there by some and we are searching means.” he added. As for criticism voiced of the department's chief veterinarian. Di? 7'- Chllds. Mr. Gardiner said he felt Dr. Ohllds had done 3 good lob.

Buildings collapsed in Kuahiro, Kyodo News Agency said, and fires were reported raging in that Hok- kaido lsland city of 51.000 popul- ation. A passenger train was derailed near Nemuro. also on Hokkaido. (A Reuters Tokyo dispatch said six persons died and 10 houses were destroyed in Kushlro in tires following the earthquake. The in- formation was attributed to the Japanese news agency.) The newspaper Asshi said the quake destruction was extensive but the tidal wave damage was not believed to be serious. , All residents or Mlyako, a city of 30,000 on Northern I-ionshu, fled at reports that I tidal wave would inundate their homes. The Japanese railway office in Sapporo, Hokkaido. said the quake tore up rails, caved in 500 yards or the main line and shifted bridges. Asahi said heavy earthquake dam. age centered around Kamalshi, 230 miles northeast of Tokyo on North. ern Honshu. The Central Meteorological Bur- eau said the earthquake hit at 10:24 A. M. (8:24 P. M. EST. Monday). The earth tremors were recorded in New York, Hawaii and other areas. llewsprint To Be Again Boosted MONTREAL, March 3-There are prospects that price increases for two of Canada's major export items--newsprint and aluminum- may be put into effect before long, and thus help make up some of the revenue these indus- tries lost. in the recent climb of Canadian currency to parity with the U. 8. dollar. There have been persistent ru- mors recently that newsprintprlcc increases are in the offing. In hen-l'1n8a before 3 us. House of Representatives mmittee last week, possible hikes were estimat- ed at :4-:10 a ton above the cur- rent- one New York delivered price. On the basis oi the 4.8 million tons of newsprint shipped to the U. S. from Canada last year, an increase of 34-310 a ton would bring an additional 517 millions- s48 millions a year to help bal- ance Canada's trade with the Us. Freight rates and pulpwood costs have gone up since the last newsprint price increase July 1. Move oi the Canadian dollar to parity has meant a decline of about 5'21. in Canadian dollar re- turn. On top of that, present wage contracts are up for'rencgc- tiation-they run normally to the end oi April. IMPRIZSSBI) BY LOYALTY LIVERPOOL. England.

Import Controls Clamped On Livestock, Meats; Best Weights For Hogs Upped OTTAWA, March 3 -(CF) - The Canadian Government. mov- ing to case a serious disruption in marketing resulting from foot- and-mputh disease, today imposed rigid import controls on livestock and meats and virtually told the provinces that they either buy from Canadian producers or go without. The ban also appeared to be an attempt to break restrictions established by British Columbia and Quebec against lisi.stock' and meals from other provinces Neither province made any im- mediate step to remove barriers, but British Columbia said it is possible some compromise may be reached. Asked in the Commons by Maj.- Gen. G. R. Pearkes, V.C.. (PO- Nanlmo) if the ban was imposed to force Quebec and B. C. to lift restrictions, Agriculture Minister Gardiner said the ban might have that effect. but it was not done for that purpose. All meats except canned meat are included in the ban, but Mr. Gardiner indicated in a 2,500-word CBC broadcast that permits may be issued fairly freely for lamb and mutton. a scarce item in Can- uda. Under control will be all cattle and calves. sheep and lambs and other ruminants and swine. as well as beef and veal, pork and pork products .either fresh, frozen, or preserved. Approves Ban Agriculture Minister Kennedy of Ontario said in Toronto that be approved of the ban. Packers, stockmen and retailers at Winni- peg alsoia-pproved, but at van- couver meat dealers said it would lead to is meat shortage in that city within 10 days. The next move was up to the province. Normally Canada imports little meat-except. some canned beef and low-price pork cuts and some pure-bred cattle. l-lowever, a lush market for foreign products ap- peared about to develop in the '.wo provinces with interprovinciai restrictions. The controls. said Mr. Gardiner. likely will remain as long as the U. s. embargo on Canadian live- stock and meats is continued or until such time as Canada finds a market for her surplus products & far, no markets have been found. but the government will keep looking. Mr. Gardiner also announced plans to boost payments to farm- ers suffering loses because of cat- tic. fodder, barns and equipment w-hioll may be destroyed to stamp out the disease. A three-man board was set up in Regina to pass on all payments and legislation was introduced in the Commons to cover any amount considered "fair .tContinued on page a col.'3)”- Fish Landings OTTAWA.

Political experts predicted the 60-year-old business man-pollti- clan would go through the motions and then give up the task to- morrow.

March 3 -- (GP) .- Arnld charges of "gross neglig- ence," Oppoaitlon parties in the Commons today demanded - and won government consent to - .1 parliamentary inquiry into the de- lays in diagnosing the western outbreak of dreaded foot.-and- mouth disease. A day-long debate on the issue was capped tonight with a charge by George Drew. Progressive Con- servative leader, that it was "sheer unadulterated nonsense" for Agric- ulture Minlster Gardiner to sug- gest thpt it takes three months to -" , the disease, which has struck Saskatchewan's Regina dis- trict. Throughout the day. Mr. Gard- iner was peppered with Opposition questions as to how the disease developed and why it has taken from Nov. 26 last. when it first was reported, until Feb. 25 to finally diagnose it as foot-and-mouth. Mr. Gardiner said no less than seven veterinarians, some of them in the government service. had studied diseased animals and de- cided they suffered from stomatltls. a milder llvestoc' affliction. He conceded there might be some basis for criticising the Govern- ment's Veterinary Service for not acting two weeks before it did, but contended it had not showed any lack of judgment in not acting ear- ier. Mr. Drew said that if Mr. Gard- iner was right in suggesting that it takes three months to diagnose foot-and-mouth, then Canada is virtually without protection from the disease crossing her borders from foreign lands. Charges Smokeec e... Mr. Drew suggested there had been "negligence and gross neg- ligence" and Mr. Gardiner, instead of putting up a ”smokescreen." should have admitted there was negligence and said the govern- ment was acting to stop it. But the Minister had "deliber- ately avoided" giving the answers to opposition questions. "I have not got the information," Mr. Gardiner retorted, "and there isn't any reason why 1' should have it it the present time.” Mr. Drew said any qualified gra- duate veterinarian was trained to grandmother. Bv ALTON L. BLAKESLEE CINCINNATI. March I - (AP) - A secret about viruses, which may lead to drug control of virus diseases. was reported today to the second national cancer confer- ence. The secret is that one kind of virus. at least. ripens or develops in stages. so that viruses are born helpless and harmles. If this same step-by-step build- up is true of other viruses. there is a chance of finding drugs to con- trol polio, smallpox. and other virus diseases of man. The virus discovered was des- cribed by Dr. S. E. Ouria. research professor of bacteriology. Univer- sity of Illinois. whoee virus research is supported. by the American Can- cer society. Viruses ripen and are mass pro- duced inside living cells. Dr. Lirria studied a virus, shaped Science May Be On Trail Of Virus Disease Control like a tadpole. that attacks and destroys certain intestinal bacteria. Tighten. Restrictions On Immigrants To Farms OTTAWA. March 3 -(OP) - oltizenship Minister Harris an- nounced in the Common: tonight that from now on no farm work- ers will be recruited or selected for lmmlgrstion to Canada from areas where foot-snd-mouth disease ax- isle. Any such workers now in route to Canada. he said. will not be allowed to go on Canadian farms until they and their elects have been thoroughly-disinfected. At the same line. Mr. Harris expressed doubt that Willi Bruent- jen, German iisnmigrsnt farm worker now being examined by government. scientists as a pos- sible csrrlar of the disease. had been the instrument by which the disease was brought to the now- qusrsntlned lugina arse. That possibility. he said. seem- ed to him to be "quite unlikely" since Canada has nceivod thous- ands of farm workers from lamina and thousands of visitors and con- adlims returned from the contin- ent. with no outbreaks of the dis- ease.

But they had no tails, and were incomplete. They lacked a vital chemical, nucleic acid. They couldn't attack or in- fect other bacteria cells. Dr. C. Levinthal and associate of the University of Michigan have found similar results. The findings suggest that human lmmimity to virus diseases may re- sult from the ability of the attack- ed cell to stop viruses from matur- ink. Viruses cause some kinds of can- cers in birds. mice, and rabbits but there is no proof yet that viruses cause human cancers.

At the same time. Mr. Clardinu disclosed that he plans to go ta Regina Thursday night to take per- sonal charge of the fight sgalnal the outbreak, which has led to the slaughter of hundreds of infected animals. Earlier, Opposition members do- manded that the chamber": agric- ulturai committee be convened and. instructed to open a searching in- quiry into the background of the outbreak. Mr, Gardiner, defending his de- pas-tment's health of animals branch, said he has no objection to such an inquiry. Citizenship Minister Eu-rls an- nounced ll. halt in immigration of farm workers from areas in coun- tries where the disease is known to exist. Any such workers now en route to Canada will not be allow- ed to go on Canadian farms until they and their effects are thor- ouchly disinfected. The demands for inquiry came as Mr. Gardiner obtained consent to have the house eidetrack its regular schedule to consider em- ergenuy legislation to provide "fair andreasonable compensa- tion" for farmers whose livestock is being slaughtered as a. control measure. The legislation also provides re- compense for buildings. fodder. grain and other farm equipment ordered destroyed in the drive to prevent the spreading of the dis- ease.
