A faint. smile broke across Ro- hart's fflfe as he stood erect, in the prisoner's dock. The husky Halifax Negro was charged wit-h slaying Mrs, Maureen MacDonald. 34-year-old divorced wife of a Canadian naval officer. Mrs. MacDonald, clad only in c. jacket-sweater, was found June 2 in a litter-strewn waterfront yard badly beaten about the iacc. She died before arriving at hospital.

Oct. — ‘The Security Council's neutral nations. ,1)’ including Canada. tonight pushed last-minute efforts to uncover a solution to the Berlin crisis ac- ceptable to east and west. Council President. Juan Hera- muglla of Argentina told nevtspap- er men he still thinks there is a chance the six neutrals he speaks for will find a solution of their own which is "just and acceptable" to Russia and the Western Pow- ere. There were persistent but un- confirmed reports that Canada would move. possibly Monday, a resolution asking Russia to lift the Berlin blockade. But late to- night, as Council representatives of Britain. the United States end France met privately, a canvass of informed opinion tended tn play down the suggestion of Ce- nedlen intervention. "It just hasn't reached that. stage yet." reliable informants said. "It. may happen ultimately. but there is nothing to indicate such action now." One thing seemed pretty de- finite about Berlin: the informal talks among the neutral six Argentina, Belgium. Canada. Chins. Colombia and Syria —-heve iended.

When the corridor talks on Ber- lin were under way, these devel- opments took place on the floor: i. The security Council took the "menacing situation" of Pal- estine on its shoulders. Britain and China demanded that Israel say what is being done to find the assasins of Count Ibllre Berna- dotte and called on both Jews and Arabs for a tighter truce. 2.

The revision legislation will be submitted for approval at, the ncxt session of Parliament. probably in January. At the same time Stcwvarl Bales.

Any revision of the order grant- ing the Zl-per-cent. boost, how- ever. would take the form of modifying the Board's actions on the applications for further in- creases. The application for an interim IS-per-cent. increase is scheduled to be heard in January. The order-in-council indicated that the 2l-pcr-ccnt increase granted in lviarch would not be directly revised since the Board was instructed to consider "any revision . . . in relation to its dis- position of the pending applica- tion."
