As helleft the country, thousands of denronstraims toured the streets of Amman. denouncing him as a traitor who had aimed to weaken the Arab Legion forces so they would be unable to meet any Is- raeli aggression. They cheered the young king who told them this was "a holy day on which we have suc- eeuelded in our movement by God's w . Political observers here saw the dismissal of Glubb as a turning point in the close relations between Jordan and Britain. The ouster came as a surprise to most people in Amman.

In Cairo, Dr. Ralf Bellarna. assistant secretary- general ofthe Arab League. lauded the "liberation of the Arab Legion fromtforeign influence." which he said would "prepare Jordan to play her full role in the face of the Is- raeli danger.") Glubb's chief opposition in Jor- dan has been from Arab national- ists, most of th refugees who came from Pale inc after the war with I s r a e I. Their opposition reached its height last year when Britain tried to get Jordan to join the Baghdad Pact. Britain's move was met .by anti- Western riots throughout the coun- try in which 16 persons were killed. Jordan had four gov- ernments in less than a month be- fore the disorders were put down by the legion. Glubb. who speaks all Middle Eastern dialects fluently. has im- mersed himself in the Arab way of life. He always ate and lived with the men he led.

MARCH 3. 1956 Canada In Wheat Deal With Reds OTTAWA (CP)-Sales of Cana- dlan wheat to Russia aresxpected to be completed within "a Very few days" and the grain will move as soon as the Soviet can arrange its own ship transportation. This report on the major feature of i.he Canada - U.S.S.R. trade agreement. signed only 111 300' week. was given to the Commons Friday by Trade Minister Howe. Under the historic pact, first be- tween the two countries. Russia agreed to buy a minimum of 44.- 000.000 bushels of Canadian-wheat, worth roughly S60.000.000 It Pres sent prices. The wheat is expected to be shipped from Canada's west coast for use in Siberia. Mr. Howe said he understands negotiations are in progress for the purchase of 400,000 tons of wheat. For the three-year life of the agreement, Russia agreed to take annual lots of between 400.000 and 500.000 tons, or 14,087.00!) and 18.- 37l.000 bushels. The minister's statement indi- cated ihere will be speedy dispatch of sales negotiations for the first year's wheat purchases by Russia , under the treaty. He was replying to questions by Hazen Argue. CCF agricultural spokesman. who termed it a "very w ' agreement." DREW LESS SATISFIED Opposition Leader Drew got less satisfaction, howeve. out of the minister's replies on other feat- ures of the pact. What goods or materials will be sent to Canada by Russia under lhe most-favored-natiorr agreement Mr. Drew asked. "My crystal ball is out on loan and I haven't the faintest ldea." Mr. Howe replied. He didn't think anyone, including the Russians, know. Mr. Drew countered sharply that such "smart" answers-Mr. Howe has used the crystal ball before in his replies this session-are inap- propriate. The House was entitled to know what goods and supplies are contemplated as a likely ex- change for Canada's wheat. - "The exchange of wheat is an ” for dollars," Mr. 1-lowe said. "What Russia will be able to sell here is something that I suppose she is as doubtful about as we are. There has never been a large trade between Canada and Russia . . .
