Nov. 1Q — (CPI —- Britain today called on Russia to end Communist-led violence in Greece and Korea as a proof in the United Nations and the world that she really wants peace. Hector McNeil, Britain's Minis- ter of State, told the U. N. politi- cal committee that Russia could end tension on two sides of the world by acting in her role as a leader of \vorld Communism. The chief British delegate said Russia could ordcr Communists to disassociaie themselves from the Greek civil war and the viol- ence that has split Korea into two armed camps. “That WOllid bc a real contribu- tion tn world peace," he said. "it woiild~be a bulldozer opera- tion in disposing of the lack of con- fidence shown here in Soviet in- ientions.“ McNeil said this lack of confi- dence, exrlrssed by half a dozen delegations in committee debate, was the reason he and others could not support a Soviet resolu- tion calling for a Tpeacc pact." among the Big Five Powers-Rus- sia, the United States, Britain, France and China.

"I have been ti long time coming to these shows and I have never seen a better display of sli- vers.’ The mutations were small- er in numbers hut. the quality was . good. The greatest interest was taken not only by the exhibitors; but bl’ hundreds of spectators who} seemed to enjoy the show as well.

The judging was done by George A. Callback. who as us- ‘ ual performed that very trying office in a thoroughly Sflusfaft- or? manner. The mink show brought together over 200 very carefully picked exhibits. All the varieties including the Stewart Breath of spring, were shown, The judge was George 1-1, Mgygrsi of Lampson. Fraser and Huth, i Inc., New York, one of the best‘ qualified in the world -- certain- ly the best on mutations. He had i flown to Charlottetown from New Westminister, B.

The results of the fox show ap- peared in this paper daily, and‘ the results of the mink show are in l it today. i Mink ranchers in the United‘.

Samples of midnight blue or navy blue squirrel were s‘"ow'n and burgundi- persian was refer- red to as another new color of fur in the offing, In the meantime Esther Dorothy. the well-known designer, is endeavoring to pop- ularize fu/r coats made from clip- ped fox dyed by her own proess. A friend mentionel to the writer that he had seen one of these coats offered for sale in New York at $600.00 One of tthe principal arguments used to sell them is that they are much lirliter in weight than Persian lamb or oth- er f-ur coats. Esther Dnrothv was . of the opinion that cllrped furs would help out the silver fox fan-hers. but we cannot see it as she could Just as easllv rse red foxes as silvers in the riiripintz-dv- ing process and there are mill- ions of reds in storages throzieli- out the United States and Canadal Furs shipped into the Unitedi States during the month of Pep-i tember were valued at nvcr m. and in August. over $3; million.

He also said fox innohing in western Canada is on the start of s twelve year grow- ing cycle after sinking ti) the danger level of tlhe past two years. l-ie said the mink industry cleared its own house when 40 per cent of western Caanadian producers dropped out because of low prices last year. A fur ball complete with Beauty Queen contest and style show was held in conjunction with the exposition. New Westrninister has in the past two years become the centre of British Columbia's rap- idly expanding fur industry. There are now 566 fur ranches in the province cum-pared with 150 twn years ago. Cheapness of fish used as feed on this coast has attract- ed many breeders from the prair- ies, Animals on display were mink. Sapphire Blue, Palomino, Pastel Silverblu, Whites and Naturals. Foxes were Silvers, Platlnums, Pearls, Arctic Blus. Marten and Chinchilla were also shown. A bright future for British Col- umbia's fur industry was predicted by George H. Mayers, New York fur expert, who acted as judge at. the mink show. He said BritEsh Colmnbia. is leading the industry in the production of new furs. He urged the fox breeders now in the market doidrums, to maintain nucleus stock for the time when the business gets back on its feet. Popularity of foxes will return ov- ernight and there will be plenty of customers, he predicted. An important sale of fox breed- ers was concluded during Fox Ex- hibition Week.

The Quebec Association for Ad- ult.

ACFAS referred to "Radio C31- icge." a French cultural program broadcast over CBC faculties tiar- lng the last eight years, Such programs should be ex- tended, it contended. Operation of a station which would transmit only cultural programs at certain hours was suggested. "Whether CD01 finances wen.- augmented by a higher licence rec or a direct Federal grant. the or- ganization was not prepared t- ssy, but CBC should have ample funds so that it "can function n: an instrument of education wntl public information and be a voice of Canadian culture."

Regular Visitant The Christmas date, as we know it, was not celebrated until the fourth century. and owing to the changes on the calendar it is impossible to say exactly on which day, and in what year, Jesus was born.

Bailey's Comet is one of the few celestial bodies which have passed within sight of the earth st. regular intervals a5 far biiok as history goes, It has been seen, and its visits re- corded, between 8'7 B.C. and Al). i910.

Since Halley’: Comet was close to Castor and Pollux on that August night in ll B.C.. it must have stood directly over Bethlehem. Certainly the appearance in the sky of so bright a body as Kelley's Comet: could not have failed to arouse wonder among the people.
