Nov. 26 -- (AP)- The United statcs is in danger of losing the ccld nvar battle to keep Iran and her oil fields from slip- ping into the Russian orbit. That's the fear of U.

This is due to what many Americans and Iranians here feel is a fumbling. half-hea.rt- ed program of U.S. economic and military aglstance for Iran. The U. S.

The late Mr. Strong hadlbeen a (prominent figure in the political life of the Province for several years and was one of the leading .m-en in the Conservative Party. He was first elected to the Legis- lature in 1931. rcvpi-esenting the Fourth District of Prince and dur- ing the life of that government served as Speaker, in which of- fice he was noted for the fairness of his decisions.

A past president of the P. E. 1. Bar Society and the senior lawyer (practising in Summerside. Mr. Strong was held in high esteem by his colleagues.

Nov. 26 -(GP) -SThe next session of Parliament Nob" ably will open in early February. The opening date likely will be on or close to Feb. 14 -the date tentatively set last September for resumption of the emergency ses- sion called to settle the general rail siike and to authorize the raising of troops for use in Korea or elsewhere. The plan is to prorogue the emergency session one day and start a new session the next. There has been acme speculation in recent weeks that the Govern- ment would advance the opening date to mid-January. This now seems unlikely. Prime Minister St. Laurent has accepted an invitation to a Lon- don conference of Common earth Prime Ministers in January. The conference opens Jan. 4 and is ex- pected to continue for 10 days.

Nov. 26 -(CF) -A French official investigating the Nov. 13 "Canadian Pilgrim" air disaster said Saturday the cause of the crash which killed 58 re- mains to be determined. The official. Maurice Bellonte, said he is awaiting a report from Rome Airport which might reveal: 1. why the big airliner carrying Canadian holy year pilgrims home from Rome was so miles off course when it went down in the French Alps. 2. Whether engine trouble caused the crash. Bellonto said there were ntnors that the four-motor DC-4 plane had engine trouble Just before it took off from Rome for Paris on its homeward flight to Montreal. The report from Rome Airport officials. he said, would verify or squelch these rumors. "But until then I am unable to Cause Of Pilgrim Plane Crash Still Unknown. the accident or not." he said. Bellonte said he is not with- holding any of the results of his probe from the public. He reported that the plane's log book had not been found on Mont L'0biou where the crash occurred. Previous reports had said parts of the log book had been found. But Belloirte said only routine docu- ments carried by the pilot had been dLscovered and these shed no light on the cause of the dis- aster. An earlier report said port of the log book had been found with entries concerning the weather and the notation: "It is raining."
