Railway wage scales, were attack-- ed by three Western grain organ- izations today in a counter-move to the Canadian Pacific Railways attempt to wipe out the West's low. statutory freight. rates on grain. Suggesting that the railways‘ payrolls are too heavy, they said in a. brief to the Royal Commis- SlOn on Transportation that. rail wages and salaries should be "re- examined" before any attempt is made to boost the grain rates. The brief was filed jointly by UIIC Manitoba Pool Elevators, Sas- katchewan co-operatire producers and the Alberta W-hcat Pool, pro- duccr-ovned grain era-operatives with a membership of 185,000 growers in the Prairie region. 1t was the latest move in a de- veloping fight. over the fate of the "Crow's Nest Pass" grain rates. sub-normal toils set by statute for the movement of grain and grain products in the West.

Up to now. the Government- owned Canadian National Rail- ways, whose stake in the grain trade is comparable to that: of the C.P.R., has taken a neutral attitude on the Crow's Nest ques- tion before the Commission. The grain co-operatives’ brief made public today said recurring demands for wage increases and shorter hours - which the rail- ways had “not seen fit to resist." - had brought a divergence be- tween the railway wage level and the general income level on the Prairies.

Although warning in his first annual report that Russia now has the secret of atomic explosives Johnson expressed belief that the prospect of war is diminishing. The military strength of the United States, he said, has much to do with discouraging a venture into a shooting war by an aggres- sor power. Johnson said there has been unification of ‘separate lines of governmental activity in tho form- ulation and conduct of foreign policy through the National Scc- urity Council. Johtnson's report covers thc tis- cal year which ended last June 30 and contains the reports of the three armed services . On the North Atlantic military assistance program and broad strategy to implement it, here are some of the things Johnson had to say: 1. He does “not foresee im- mediate and spectacular re- suits upon the establishment of the (Atlantic) pact organ- ization or upon implementation of this year's aid programs. The organization only produces results as it gains experience and fosters mutual under- standing among its members." 2. t‘Should Western Europe be over-run by a hostile power an: should its vast industrial n nnowsr...» n this the . ETdQdwII: ‘those of ell an ag- gressor, the United States would stand isolated,in a dangerous- ly insecure position . . . the United States must be able to hold the lines of collective defence of the North Atlantic area during the time that. would be required for the United States to mobilize. equip, train, and transport our own troops across thc Atlan- tic Ocean." The reports gave some hints of how matters are going in the northern bastion, Alaska, and the whole Arctic defence perimeter. Matthews gave brief glimpses of some new plans for the sea ser- vices in thc Arctic zone. beyond which lies Russia. He spoke of an LSD (landing ship, dock) be- ing equipped for polar work, and said it i capable of launching “substantial numbers of amphibi- ous craft in sutbtfreezing areas."

U. K. Conservatives Ask Unions For Support LONDON, Jan. 30 — (CP) ~- Winston Churchill's Conservatives appealed tonight to trade union- ists —— the Labor Party's back- bone — for support in the Feb. 23 parliamentary elections.
