He added that “in a way" many people were actually three persons - the kind of person they thought themselves to’ be; the kind of person their fellows considered them; and the kind of person God knew they were. T00 CONCERNED A lot of people were to much concerned with the first two, while being perhaps “afraid” to dwell on the last, he observ- ed. He urged the young ladies a- bout to embark on a nursing career to pita-ctice gentleness and kindness, to be diligent, self-sacrificing, and self reliant, and to remain calm in the many emergencies they would encount- er. In asking the graduates to con- sider making their contribution to the nursing profession within the confines of their native Pro- Vince, he reminded them that “high wages and a better stand- ards of living do not in them- selves buy happiness.” OIL FOR THE FLAME . High ideals, self development, and personal integrity constitute the “oil” that feeds the flame of the nursing profession. the Valedictorian,/Miss Seaman, said. “We must be prepared to’ ac- cept leadership and the respon- sibility it entails.” she told her "classmates, adding that “to keep up the prestige of the profession" they must make their -influence felt within the sphere they choose to serve. ., In his introductory remarks, the chairman, Dr. MaoMillan, recalled that the Hospital had suffered several distinct losses in personnel in the twelve months that had elapsed since the last graduation exercises.

PARIS (Reuters) 5 A new po- litical move to bring Gen.’Ch—arles de Gaulle to power was made Wednesday even as Premier Pierre Pflimlin sought to win over French military‘ commanders in Algeria." . . ‘ Conservative Leader Antoine Pi-nay offered to act as go - be- tween for the government and ne- gotiate terms with de Gaulle for his acceptance of the premier- ship. aPinay, a former premier, of- fered his services both to Pfli.m- lin and deputy Premier Guy Moi- let, chief of the Socialist party. So far, the offer has not been accepted. Pflimlin worked diligently be- hind the scns to maintain powr rgime and the army and settlers in Algeria. H-is strategy depends on avoiding condemnation of the military in Algeria. The 51-year-old premier told the Upper House of parliament Wednesday" that Gen. Raoul Sa- lan, armed forces commander in Algeria, has “never conducted himself in a manner disloyal to the republic." PRAISES de GAULLE Salan, in an Algiers address Tuesday night, warmly pra.ised de Gaulle but still did not com- mit himself finally to either side. Offi‘cial~s here say that in line with establishing better liaison with Salan, Pflimlin will send armed forces chief Henri Lorillot and resolve the split between his to Algiers shortly. They said New Move Started To Place DeGaulle In Power Lorillot, who replaced Gen. Paul Ely last week, will make a study of the military campaign against Moslem nationalists. An aide of_Salan is completing extended‘ talks here with Defence Minister Chevignet and will re- turn soon to Algiers. Meantime, tension eased in Paris and Algiers. After Pflimlin addressed the Upper House this morning, it voted 233 to 62 in favor of renew- ing the government’s emergency powers in Algeria. By -the equally overwhelming vote of 473 to 93, the National Assembly T u e s d a y night ap- proved the bill, but the debate failed to crystallize the various parties’ views on de Gaulle’s bid to become premier. OTTAWA (CP)—-Retention of basically the same setup ll Ca- nadian coastal shipping trade is recommended in the report of a three - year royal commission‘ study tabled Wednesday ‘in the Commons. Prime Minister Diefenbaker, OTTAWA (CP)—Canada’s last major deep-sea merchant fleet, the eight vessels of the Canadian National Steamships’ West In- dies service, is to be sold. The ships have been idle since a sea- man's strike last July 4. The sale, announced by Trans- port Minister Hees in the Com- mons Wednesday, will wind up a government — owned service which, with repeated federal sub- sidies, has maintained a shipping link with the West Indies for de- cades. Mr. Hees, reading a statement by CNS general manager J.A. Sauve, said private carriers have taken over former CNS business. The future outlook “made it most unlikely that heavy operating losses could be avoided" if the ships went back into service. The ships. which were switched to Trinidad registry last Novem- ber, have been transferred back to Canadian registry for the pur- pose of the sale. Preference would be given to any Canadian buyer intending to use the ships in Canada-West In- dies trade. But the CNS, a sub- sidary of the CNR reserved the right “ to sell the vessels any time if a saticifactory offer is re- ceived.” LIBERAL TAUNTS The announcement by Mr. Hees was greeted with some taunting from the Liberal party Canada's Last Deep-Sea Merchant Fleet To Be Sold and an expression of regret from the CCF. ' Lionel Chevrier, former Lib- eral transport minister, called out "Page the minister of pub- lic works.” Works minister Green, who as an opposition member had often urged strengthening Canada's merchant marine, said nothing; Mr. Chevrier asked how many deep sea ships are now under the Canadian flag. Mr. Hees replied there are as many as when the Progressive Conservative govern- ment displaced the Liberals last June 21. H.W. Herridge CCF - Koot- enay West said his party regrets the decision very much. The Seafarers’ International Union CLC went on strike last July 4 in a contract dispute. The union had demanded a 20-per- cent wage increase from the basic wage of $204 a month plus board. A conciliation board re- port had recommended a 10 per cent increase. TRANSFER REGISTRY Last November the CNS trans- ferred the registry of the ships, then tied up at Halifax and»'Mont- real, to Port of Spain, Trillidad. in an apparent effort to put them back in operation with cheaper operating costs - especially for crews-which would be possible under Trinidad registry. The move was made after a company ultimatum offer of a 15- per-cent wage increase and other concessions was rejected. Mr. Hees said in the Commons then that the government had been prepared to shoulder def- icits resulting from the $200,000 cost of the company's final offer but “beyond this we were not prepared to go." ’ Since 1928 the government had paid a total $7,000,000 in sub- sidies to keep the West Indies service in operation. ‘ The company made one at- tempt to get the ships back into operation. Five of the ships tied up at Montreal were spirited out of horbour to join the three others in Halifax. Trinidad crews were recruited but planes carrying them to Canada were stopped by company order at Bermuda and turned back. MAY CHANGE FLAG AGAIN From the minister’s announce- ment Wednesday, there appeared to be no assurance the ships will remain under Canadian registry. When their registry was shifted to Tr-inidad last fall, only 10 cargo ships and eight tankers re- mained under Canadian deep sea registry, mostly in coastal trade or carrying cargoes for indus- tries owning them. About eight years ago, under a Canadian-United Kindom agree- ment, operators of most Cana- dain deep sea ships transferred to British ifegi.st1‘y to get the presenting the report ordered by the previous Liberal government early in 1955, said it will be given “careful study” by his government. The three-main commission rec- ommended no major chages in the laws governing wa=terbo.rne traffic in Canada’s coastal w,é- ters—whicli include the Great Lakes -— and specifically turned down various proposals for SW- ing Canadian vessels advantages over competitors from abroad when the St. Lawrence Seaway opens next year. However, the 136,000-word 1'e- port made some recommenda- tions on relatively - lesser issues and some suggestions — though not specific recommendations — on a few major ones. FEDE AL SUBSIDY? One suggestion was that Can- ada’s hard-pressed shipbuilding industry might better be assisted by a federal subsidy, rather than by restrictions on foreign ship- ping. should the opening of the seaway put it in worse straits. Another was that “moral pres- sure”—rather than legisation- might be enough to discourage non—Canadian shipping from tak- ing too much business away from Canadian operators. A third proposal was that if it appeared more vessels should be kept on Canadian registry than are in prospect this might be done by direct government sub- sidy or by easement of taxation. However, th e commission hedged on the latter point by say- ing the suggestion would hold good only “should there be rea- sons not made known to the com- mission” for bolstering the num- ber of Canadian-flag ships. DRUNK ON HORSEBACK LONDON (AP)—-Sidney Grange, 45, was fined 10 shillings Wednes- day for being drunk on a horse. A policeman testified Grange had been reported weaving in and out of ti‘af£ic on his horse and had to hang on to the an- benefit of lovveroperating cost. imal's head to keep upright. Few Changes Sugges’red In Coastal Shipping Setup Immediate reaction to the re- port was mixed. WELCOME TAX RELIEF The Canadian Shipowners As- sociation, whose members won most of Canada’s ocean - going ships and some coasters, wel- comed the taxation relief sugges- tion and said it should be put into effect without further delay. It said this ‘could be accom- plished without any burden on the taxpayer. But of the suggestion th a t moral pressure could be exerted upon non-Canadian shipping, it said “we serously question whether such.control could be exercised over the shipowners of other nations, who may not al- ways liave the freedom to submit to such pressures.” OTTAWA (CP) -- The United States will conduct surveys in Canada to determine the extent of the need for a new detection and warniing system against in- tercontinental ballistic missiles. External A f f a i r s Minister Smitlh Wednesday informed the Commons the government has granted permission to the U.S. government to conduct these sur- veys. He said Canadian government agencies and Canadian commer- cial companies will work closely with American officials and com- mercial agents in the investiga- tions. > Mr. Smith did not elaborate further. He was replying to Op- position Leader Pearson who asked whether negotiations were in progress between Canada and the US. for establishment of an intercontinental ballistic missile warning system. SURVEY OBJECTIVES Officials indiicated that the sur- veys will have two main objec- tives: * 1. Improvement of the present radar warning system by intro- duction of automation into the air defence processes. 2. Determination whether ii warning system against missiles can be superimposed on the pres- ent w a r n i n g system against bornlbers. The first objective probably will SPRENGHILL, N.S.

The missile likely would be the supersonic American Bomarc, whicih has a range of some_25() miles. N0 PERMISSION YET Officials said, however, that the U.S. has not been given permis- sion as yet to build any missile bases in Canada either anti-air: craft or counter-missile. Authorities have said that the p r e s e nt $1,200,000,000 warning system--the DEW (Distant Early Warning), Mid-Cainiada and Pine- t-ree lines-—is incapable of detect- ing initercontinental ballistic mis- silos.
