S., Juli. 17 —(CP) —— A small coastal pac- ket was crushed in the ice and sank blocking the St. Peters Canal which connects the Bras d‘Or Lakes with St. Pet- er's Bay near the Strait of Canso, it was reported late to- day. Traffic is lean through the canal at this time of year but it is forced to move on tlie ‘Ti-mile longer and rougher route along the Cape Breton Atlantic coast. The 68-ton motor vessel, the Corrine, owned by E. Nicholas of Caiiso, was bound from North Sydney to Canso with a cargo of l2?) tons of coal at tlie time of the sinking. Tin,- little ship got inio a grinding ice-pack which pierc- ed a. big hole in its bottom. It sank in a few minutes in i8 feet of water. Capt. George Miesiier and his crew - Ed- mund Bond and Pat Carter _- werc able to salvage only their clothing as they abandoned ship. Canal officials said that they would have to wait until win- ter storm and icc conditions abated before putting a. salvage crew to work clearing the im- portnnt vessel route. Housing Dollar Spreads lisell Many Ways By FORBES RHUDE (Canadian Press Business Editor) MONTREAL. Jan. 17 — (OP) —— Tiie prosperity which home bulld- iiig liclps to maintain can't be measured only in terms of that five-room bungalow you have just put up. There's something more, which was stated to the Canadian Con- struction Association today by D.B. Mansur, president of the Fed- eral Government's Central Mort- gage and Housing Corporation. Said Mr. Mansur: "Every five-room bungalow that is built involves an expenditure of about $1,000 for roads, water, sew- cr and other services, and another SL000 for schools. In approximate terms, 20,000 small individual res- idential units means about $20,000.- 000 of construction in the form of services, and another $20,000,000 in schools.

S. In Orieni Forecast By RUSSELL BRINES Associated Press News Analyst (For J. M._Roberts, Jr.) TOKYO. Jan. 17 — (AP) - The United States is about to make a bolder military front in the Orient, where it is pledged now to defend two widely-separated countries. The aircraft carrier Boxer, en route to Asiatic waters, probably will make the strongest impres- sion. The Boxer is expected to show the flag to Orientals who have not seen American naval power recently. The United States has served definite notice it does not intend to be bluffed out of Asia, having begun an extensive construction program on Okinawa, main base in the Ryukyu Islands. Plans mil for an expenditure of perhaps $2,000,- 000 on the island, where a. year ago tlie garrison was not sure how long it would stay. The Air Force plans to equip its scattered fighter squadrons with the latest model jet. planes by Feb-i ruary. , More "beef" in Pacific defences may result from the visits of nuni- “Tamtinued on Page l5 Col. 3) Three Burned To Death In Ontario Village Fire DENBIGH, Ont., Jan. 17 — (CP)i _ Three persons were burned to death today and a. fourth suffer- ed injuries in a iii-foot leap for life us fire raced through a. two- storey frame building here, Volunteer fire-fighters of this isolatccldumber village of 200 were unable to check the early-morning fire which destroyed the combin- ation garage-residence. Denhigh is 80 miles northwest of Kingston. The dead: Mrs. Albert Wien- eoke. 26, wife of the garage own- er, their two-year-old daughter, Barbara, and William Storing, 2i, Wieneckes assistant who lived with the family. Wlenecke, his clothing ablaze, leaped through a window of the apartment over the garage after being wvakened by smoke. Suffering from burns, possible bone fractures and shock, he was taken to hos- pital at Rcnfrew where his con- dition was reported satisfactory. The garage-owner estimated he lay unconscious about 30 minutes before he was able to drive to his fathers home to spread the alarm. Telephone eommunicaitons in and out of Denbigh were still partly paralyzed due to last week-ends sleet storm. The village has no regular fire organization and a bucket brigade responded to the alarm. No estimate of damage was av- ailable, Also lost were several ve- hicles in the garage, including a bus. Record Year Reported In PEI Potato Exports Taken from the standpoint of exports of seed potatoes from this Province, the crop year of 1948 was the most successful yet ex- perienced, reported Mr. S. G. Pep- pin, district inspector of seed po- tuto certification, Dominion De- partment of Agriculture, at yester- day's meeting of tlie P.E.I. Agri- cultural Council. A total of 4,259,985 bushels was exported to various countries and to tlie other Provinces of Canada. Mr. Peppln reported. Of this amount well over three and one- quarter million bushels went to United States points distributed to twenty-eight of the States, Applications under the price support program for the surplus of the 1948 crop in Prince Edward Island and parts of New Bruns- wick were received from 1.900 growers of which some 1,550 lots were actually inspected, involving 875,000 bushels for which $591,385 was paid to the growers. Work of administering this program was carried out by the Seed Potato In- spection Service, aided in the oct- ual inspection by the Fruit and Vegetable Inspection Service. Col- llecied from growers and dealers was a sum in excess of $52,000 for stock sold subsequent to payment to the growers. "It was thought that due to the Effects Of Flights On Whooping Cough Studied (By Mel Siifrini OTTAWA, Jan. 17-(CP) -—The theory that whooping cough in its severe form can sometimes be re- lieved by a flight in an aircraft stirred interest in the Health De- partment today. The hands of several sections in- dlcatcd that while prevention of whooping cough is the first con- sideration, study might be given to the altitude treatment. The theory is not a new one. It has been discussed ln medical journals for some years and is arts, letters and the public schools. Five "acute and. urgent" prob- lems faced administration o! edu- cation in New Brunswick: Building program, instructional equipment and supplies, differential curricu- lar, supply of professionally train- ed teachers and the increasing dif- flcuity of financing educational cost. The Association's brief. present- ed by C. M. G. Arthurs of Fred- ericion said the current high building costs had impeded to a greet extent the provision of new school accommodation, repairs and renovations. Many town and coun- try schools has been condemned as unsafe. Costs fior instructional equip- ment and supplies were assuming growing importmco in the school budget. Because of the inadequacy of school finance; and lnsufliciency of trained personnel it bu! been virtually fmposlible to integrate courses throughout the secondary schools. Although there was s teacher shortage, salary increases had not kept pace with increases for many other types of work. In one county lust year 21 schools were cloud be- cauno of n. lack of teachers. The Association endonod the plan previously outlined by the Canadian Teachers Federation for a straight per pupil grant from acioncu was in the Federal Governmle‘ understood to have been tried several times hefore in Canada. Under direction of Wing Cmdr. D. G. Nelson, senior medical of- ficer at Rockcllffc Air Station, the three-year-old son of an Air Force corporal was taken up to 10.000 feet in a twin-engined Da- kota. The lad, son of Cpl. R. W. J. Barre, had been suffering from whooping cough for two months. The lad, said Wing Cmdr. Nel- son, has been eating and sleeping regularly since the flight. What's more, he hasn't whooped since. The altitude treatment, he says, ls based on the theory flint ccr- tuin tissues collapse in tlic lung of a whooping cough sufferer. At 10,000 feet the drop in pressure outside the body is such that it exerts a pull which probably clears out any foreign secretions in the lung. Wing Cmdr. Nelson emphasized that ivhlie the treatment worked in this instance, it is still far from being proved. One official at the Health De- partment expressed interest in the theory but, added cautiously that the possibility of coincidence must be considered. Discussing the immunization pro- gram for whooping cough, he said it has been "very effective." In a high percentage of eases, iniiocula- tlons prevent whooping cough al- together. An indication that Canada may be winning the fight against the disease comes from statistics gath- ered by the Bureau of Statistlcl. In 1948, the lust complete year. 7,084 cases were reported. Fig- ures for 1949 will probably show about 1.000 more cases. Some 155 children died from the disease in 1948. During the first three months of 1940 the death toil was it’! compared with 5R in the same period of the previous year. The situation comes inio focus when compared with 1921-4110 first year recorded-when there were 1,000 deaths, and the peak year of 1923 when 1.1374 children died. Among communicable diseases, whooping cough ranks fourth be- hind such major killer: n: tuber- culosis (5,000 death: in 194B) in- fluenza (911) and measles (230). Prevailing low prices for this commodity lust spring, acreage would be drastically reduced," Mr. Peppln said, "However, such was not the case, The total acres en- tered for inspection in 1949 was 01111! 1.500 less than the all-time high of 38.750 entered for inspec- tlon the previous year. This re- ductlop of 1,500 acres might well be accounted for by the reduction of 345 in the number of applica- tions received, as against the prev- ious year. 5,439 growers applied for inspection covering 8,500 fields.” Of the total acreage under in- spection last year, 92.7 percent passed all field inspections-the highest average for Canada. Record Yields Yields of all varieties were the highest in the department's ex- perience, Many growers reported 400 bushels per acre and some as high as 500 and even 600 bushels. This resulting in piaclnl! an esti- mated production of graded stock "A" and "B" size, amounting to eight and one-quarter million bushels available tor export, an amount’. nearly 100 percent greater than the total seed shipments from the 1948 crop. Shipments to Dec. Ill, 1949, ex- ceeded thosc of last year as of that same date by over 400,000 bushels. Total shipments to date, .Jan, 15, 1950, amount to two and [one-half million bushels.

John Murray today cre- dited the alertness of a used-car dealer for the arrest of three Mar- itimcrs who will be returned to Halifax ivlicre they are wanted on charges of theft of bonds. The men are David Elsenhaucr, 28. and Clifford Creeper, 39, of Dartmouth, N.S., and Hugh Heigh- ton, 31, of Halifax. A fourth man was detained with them, but de- tectives said they would probably release him after questioning. Eisenhauer went to sce a car dealer today and offered a $1,000 bond in payment for a. $750 used car. The dealer told him he could not accept the bond since it. was registered. A short time later, Els- enhaucr returned with the bond which. meanwhile, hul been en- dorsed. 'I'he dealer gave him the car and a check for $250. On the check, however, he inserted a wrong account number and, after calling police, he called his bank to stop payment. .

Police Superintendent Ed- ward W. Fallon said "over $1,- 000,000 was stolen and they missed we don't know how much more because they couldn't carry it away." Earlier a company spokesman had estimated the loss at more than $500,000 in cash. First re- ports said seven were in the gang that made their way into premises once thought hold-up proof. Fallon, after inspecting the rob- bery scene, sharply criticized the firm for "the poor security mea- sures it takes to protect such huge sumskif money." Police said seven men made their way into the building and two more waited behind ‘the steering wheels of automobiles at the curb. Carefully-Laid Plan One police officer said the robbery “was so neatly executed that it must have been engineer- ed by the cream of Boston's crime world." The robbers, plainly following a carefully-laid plan, walked ‘in- to the office of Brink's Incorpor- ated, an international armored- truck firm, at 7:10 P.M. EST. with Halloween masks on their faces. Police said the men, "probably with a pass key", opened "x locked doors to reach the second- floor offices, _ A company spokesman said sev- cral employees have pass keys and "possibly some folfjn?!‘ 8m- ployees still have them.‘ _ The money, all in paper bills, was scooped from an open vault into two laundry bags bfWShhl-IY the robbers. They loft lmhllld nearly 5O bags of silver lying in the vault. The Brink garage is located on the waterfront in Boston's con-I gested north end. It is near the Sumner vehicular tunnel which goes under Boston harbor 1.0 routes leading to the Massachu- setts north shore. Witnesses told police the m!“ raced out. of the Brink buildlhZ into two ivaiting automobiles. Police called the crime “one of the best-planned jobs evil!‘ pulled otf in police dePflfhhflll- records." _ The estimate of loss was given by Thomas B.
