The ”Lion of Kashmir" wants his state to remain semi-independent of India. Kashmlr'a last rulinx Mahsrajah, Sir Harl sinzh. I Hindu, acceded to the Indian Un- ion in 1947 yielding up control 01 foreign affairs, defence and com- munications. but retaining a large measure of autonomy. Since then the mountain state has been the object of n. mi-OF war between India and Moliem Pakistan, embittering relations be- tween the two countries. Kashmir is split roughly in half by a ceasefire line on which in- dian and Pakistani armies were halted by United Nations mediation in 1949. on the Pakistani side, there is s. "free" government. Sheikh Abduliah administers the rest of Kashmir, where the bulk of the population is concentrated. His vice-premier and home min- lster, Bakshi Ghulam Mohammed. leads a. group which is pressing for closer financial integration with In- die. He says this is necessary to save the state from economic col- lapse. The prime minister is known to be opposed to the plan. Full reports of his speeches are rarely obtainable here, but such of his utterancm as have appeared in the Indian press suggest he is standing firm against any attempt to have Kashmir more closely link- ed with India. Bakshl Ghulam Mohammad is backed by the leftist speaker of the Constituent Assembly, Ghulam Mohammed Sadlq. who proclaims near-Communist sympathies. But Finance Minister Mir Afzal Reg supports the sheikh. Early this week Shelkh Abdullah postponed elections of candidates to the annual sasion of the Kashmir National Conference, the party in power. Anti-Abdullah elements in the Kashmir valley allege that he stopped them because his group was losing out to supporters of Bakshi. SWITCI-IBOARD ROMANCE CALGARY.

'Hislorian Of Skye Pioneers Among Anniversary Speakers A highlight in the 150th sn- niverssry services in connection with the arrival of the Selkirk settlers at Belfast was the address last evening by Mr. Malcolm A. Macquecn, Q. 0., of Winnipeg, author of "Skye Pioneers and The Island.” which since its publication in me has held its place as the authoritative work on the sub- ject. The meeting, in St. John's Church, was presided over by Mr. K. M. Martin, chairman of the anniversary committee, was fea- tured by two other speciai speak- ers, Rev. D. M. Sinclair of Fort Massey United Church, I-lallfur, and Senator J. Walter Jones. Rev. Mr. Sinclair, who is a son of the late Rev. Alexander Mac- Lesn Sinclair, a former minister of St. John's Church stated that it was indeed a significant occas- ion in the history of this district. He recalled that his father had preached in the church for 28 years, and had with him A watch that had been presented to the elder Sinclair on the occasion of his having written a Gaelic poem in 1891. Mr. Sinclair dwelt at some length with excerpts from the diary of Lord Selkirk. One of the most interesting parts, described the hardships and hazards of the settlers who were making the voyage on "The Polly". At one time they were overhauled by a. British man-of-war seeking men for the Navy. The Captain sent all the men below decks and told the man-of-war's captain that they had fever aboard. The British ship withdrew, and later sent some fruit and fresh vege- tables to them. On another oc- casion they were chased by pir- ates but the Captain again, by a clever ruse, placed mock guns on the side of the ship to simulate the appearance of a ship of war and a second time saved his human cargo. . "Selkirk," said Mr. Sinclair, "had a great deal of sympathy for the Highland erofter who had been deprived of his land: and was anxious to settle him, but received ll t t l e encouragement from the Government at that time." He made reference to two books which describe the Selkirk settlers of the West. They are ”The Strange Brigade" and "Men from Klldonan." Senator Jones Senator Jones traced the his- tory. of the Island and particular- ly the Belfast district from the time it was occupied by the French before their expulsion. in vlously occupied it, had made small clearings. Mr. Jones pointed out that in the year 1825 the exports of the Island amounted to 5375.000 which was a remarkable showing for a. place so recently settled. He recalled that his great grand- father, Robert Jones, had built the present church for an amount less than 31,000. The Senator noted the slow ad- vance ln the use of machinery . . . the "cradle" was still used in the harvesting of grain as late as 1875. He predicted, however, that In the years to come Belfast will become one of the best. centres in the country with the now Trans-Canada llighwuy running through it. The clerk of the Kirk Scssinn.
