As a result, it is not expected that anything other than indoor antennae will be re- quired by patrons within a rariious of forty tniies. By the fall of next year, the station will be able to pro- vide what is known as instant traits- mission by microwave in the case of such features as Madison Square Garden events. Meanwhile the com- pany's radio operation, CIVCY, es- tablished thirty-two years ago by the late Colonel K. S. Rogers, will be continued without interruption, servicing the wide area winch "The Friendly Voice of the Maritimes" has reached over the years. As all our readers are aware, Colonel Rogers was one of Canada's leading pioneers in the commercial broadcasting field, and his death in 1954 occurred while plans for estab- lishing television locally were being formulated. His vision and initiative have been an inspiration to all as- sociated with him, and the success which has crowned their efforts in television today stems directly from T his earlier activities. The Guardian tenders warmest congratulations to his widow, Mrs. Flora Rogers, presi- dent of the company, to his son-in- law, Mr. Robert Large, station man- ager, and to all the members of CFCY staff in placing Prince Ed- ward Island on the map .in this marvellous new industry. and wishes them every success in their ambit- ious undertaking. The U. S. Memorandum It is difficult to see in the mem- orandum which the United States Government has sent to the coun- tries which will participate in this week's London Conference anything of importance that has not already been advocated by the British and French, and to which President Nasser seems unaiterably opposed. The heart of the document is the need for an international authority to run the Suez canal and attend to its financial affairs. This is what Prime Minister Eden emphasimd in his recent address; and it is. pre- sumably, what the British, French and American foreign ministers agreed upon at their first meeting. Just why the United States should find it necessary to circulate the proposal unilaterally has not been revealed. If the hope is that Presi- dent Nasser is more likely to he in- fluenced by the United States act- lng, alone rather than in concert with Edwin and France, it is a futile one. For one thing, Nasser has declared himself to be against my form of internationalization of ' the Canal; the fact that the details were fashioned in Washington and not in London or Paris would prob- nbly not carry much weight with film. For another, it was the United State! refusal to finance the build- ing of the Aswan Dam that led to the seizure of the canal; at least, tilt was the excuse given for it. that circumstance can hardly be Ixpected to make President Nasser reogpdvo to American suggestions, ” In view of thehxciose re- to those he has already - ...ts flpyomonenfs of all inter- why is there my lt-It nllflf the Egyptian I 'r we Mr Ilrmertake to work the Canal qt thl highest level of efficiency; what need is there for anything more? The answer, unhappily, is that a large number of the chief users of the Canal have not the confidence in the intention or the ability of the Egyptian Government to do these things. This has been the subject of much heated comment dtiring the past two weeks. It will, one hopes, be the subject of calmer discussion around the conference table. But here is the crux of the whole mat- ter. This lack of confidence, what- ever one's views about it, is a fact which cannot be simply ignored or overlooked by those who think It unjustified. It is the prime factor in the whole situation. It is perhaps the greatest difficulty of all. The World's Wheat According to a bulletin put out by the United Nations Food and Agricultural Organization, the world (wheat crop in 1955, not counting the Russian harvest from which there is no report, was about 370 greater than that of the previous year. In round figures the increase amounted to 5 million tons, Canada and Australia accounting for the bulk of it. In the United States there was a slight drop in production and one of considerable size in Argen- tina. Exports from major producing countries for the year ending June .30 amounted to about 21': million tons as against a million tons less in lEl.3ti-.33. In this category the United States came first with a million tons more than in the previous year. Canada's increase was in the vicinity of 300,000 tons. In several European countries there is a shortage, chiefly owing to severe frosts which dam- aged the winter crops. France suf- fered most in this respect, but Bel- gium. Switzerland, the Netherlands and Yugoslavia were also hit more or less seriously. This, in the opinion of F.A.O. officials indicates an in- creased demand in the ensuing year. However. surpluses remain big. This last year saw them increased by more than 2 million tons, more than twice the amount but in storage the previous year. EDITORIAL NOTES All roads lead to the Provincial Exhibition grounds this evening, where Old Home Week will be for- mally opened and the big Fair will get officially under way. 0 O O The activities of at least one oil tanker won't be affected by the Suez Canal dispute. She is the Jap- anese-buiit "Universal Leader" the world's biggest ship. Her 87,430 ton displacement makes it impossible for her to go through either the Suez or the Panama. The ship is owned by an American firm. 0 0 I That the British sense of sports- manship is not daunted by trouble in other fields is proved in a report from London which says that Egypt is included in the 14 countries in- vitcd to take part in a plowing match near Oxford in early October. Russia also has been invited to send representatives. I O I In replying to a civil suggestion made by an Opposition member, Northern Affairs Minister Lcsage said: "You don't know what you are talking about." If this session of Parliament doesn't end soon Cana- dian cabinet ministers will he known the world over as arrogant and in- solent men, rather than as public servants. I I D It is the hope of the Federal Department of Transport that the new ferry, now under construction to ply Northumberiand Strait from Caribou to Wood Islands, will be launched by the end of the current year and go into service by the sum- mer of 1957. In showing reluctance to predict a definite date when the ship would go into service, the Min- ister may have had in mind the stiff questioning to which he was sub- jected earlier in the day over the S.S. "William Carson," designed to ply between North Sydney and Port- aux-Basques, Newfoundland.

RAF Il(ai Takl Kowloon. China Mainland - The first jet bomber ever to alight at this airstrip at Kai Tak set in a bowl of hills on the China mainland - the world's most diflicull airfield - was suc- cessfully brought in yesterday by an Austrailian pilot on a two-year exchange job with the R. A. F. He is Flying Officer M. J. Ridg- way R. A. A. F. of Adelaide South Australia. He was accompanied by an Australian Navigator (Flying Officer J. Bell of Sydney N.. S.) also of the Royal Australian Air Force. Accompanying them as an Observer was a Canadian serving in the R. A. F. - Flight Lieunenanl. J. Cattlcy from Winnipeg. Hitherto it had not been thought safe and possible to land a high speed 600 M. P. H. Bomber on this sort of airstrip with its difficult approaches in the hills round Hong Kong. The Australian pilot did the 'mpossible and told me this morn- ing that he had in approach from a right hand circuit - making it all the more difficult for a pilot using the customary left hand seal. of the aircraft. FROM MALAYA The English Electric tCanberrn' came from Butterworth, North Malaya where Australians are lengthening the airstrip. its job was to escort a number of De Hav- illand lVcnom' jet Fighters and lead them from Changi airfield Singapore to Laubuan island Bor- neo - where Australian 9th Div- isinn first landed in June 1945 - and thence escort the short range Interceptors next day to Clark Field near Manila and after an- other overnight stop escort them to Sekkong - the R. A. F. airstrip near the communist Chinese bord- or here. It is a night of 721 nautical miles from Changi in Labuan and 761 from Lahuan to Clark Field and then a run of 570 miles in Sekkong. Owing to weather problems during the monsnons the short range Fight ers dare not try fly this route unescorted as they lack the range to make these trips for there are no nearby alternative airfields. The 'CsnberI'sl escorts them on delivery trips to Number 28 (F) Squadron commanded by Squad- ron Leader A. Phillips R. A. F. at Sekkong. The iCanberra' goes ahead: spies out the weather; re- ports by radio to the pilots of the incoming ivenoms' and then es- corts them to each Base along the route. LAST VAMPIRES Number 28 Squadron which used the last of the iSpilfires' on con- verting in 1952 to the De Havillaud tVampire' here is now the last tVampire' Squadron converting to the newer faster lVenom.' This will he the last type of Interceptor to be employed here since the 700 M. P. H. Hawker lHunter' with which R. A. F. Squadrons at home and in Germany are being re-eq- uipped cannot use the shorter airslrips here. When Hong Kong possesses its 8,200 ft. runway into Hong Kong harbour by late 1958, then these faster Fighters could be used here. Squadron Leader Phillips has made several trips back to Singa- pore ferrying the 'Vampires' some of which are going to the Ceylon Air Force. So have some of his pilots of 213 Squadron, The last. three 'Vampires' at Sekkong are to be broken up here and their parts will prove useful as spares. When the Squadron has built up to its full total of 20 'Venomsi there will be no more lVampire' jet Squadrons in the Royal Air Force. The iCanbcrra' returns to But- terworth "in Malaya tomorrow tMondayt on a direct nonstop run. Yesterday it escorted 4 'Vampir- es' and one Glostcr tMcteor' Fight- er here. The return flight will oc- cupy a more 90 minutes from Hong Kong! Turbulent Algiers By Joseph E.

It's caused by magnesium deficiency. Doctors have nptlced -similar symptons-with certain obvious exceptlons- ocur in humans with a deft i SERIOUS RESULTS Your body ordinarily contain! less than one ounce of magne- sium. But absence of even alittle of this minute amount might re- sult in e SI.vc nervousness. muscle twitching, tremor, deliri- um and even convulsions. Doctors believe that chronic alcoholism might be an impor- tant cause of magnesium den- ciency symptoms. And adminis- tration of magnesium salt: to alcoholics in delirium tremens lppear to be helpful. Of course it is always taken under the doc- tor's direction. Of course. low nesium blood levels are found in other cases, such as congestive heart failure, epilepsy, malignant conditions. certain skin diseases. asthma. hyperthyroidism and in severe starvation. SEEMS TO HELP in these cases, too. giving mag- nesium salts seems to benefit pa- tients with delirium or tremor. M gneslum treatment may also help counteract serious nervous and mental symptoms developed by patients with cirrhosis of the liver who receive ammonium salt: as part of their treatment. You never know where medical help will come from. QUESTION AND ANSWER Mrs. E.. What Is the best way to treat nausea and vomiting during pregnancy?
