(CP) — Cavuad-a’s top nuclear scientist has expressed renewed confid- ence that the Chalk River, Ont., atomic project has reached a point where it can design an atomic power plant which will produce electricity as cheaply as coal-ibumling stations. “We feel we have reached an objective of years of research and can now design a nuclear : - power plant to.-schema- power at six mills a kilowatt hour," Dr. W. B. Lewis, vice- president of Atomic Energy of Canada Limited said in a state- ment. However, it might take up to five years to solve all tech- nological problems. Dr? Lewis, in charge of basic research at this atomic establish- ment, said the Canadian objec- tive in to produce electricity by atomic means at con-sideralbly less than six lrlills. Canada for many years has concentrated on an atomic power station which would use natural uranium as a fuel and heavy wa- ter as a heat transfer agent to heat ordinary water to produce steam. The steam would drive turbines which, in turn, would drive electric generators. Dr. Lewis and other officials ‘of the Crownlcompany have said many times that they believe the Canadian approach is the answer to economic atomic power.

O’lYI'AW»A (OP) — A Newfound- land MP Thursday upbraided an army doctor for a statement which he said reflected on New- foundlanders. C. W. Carter (L—Burin-Burgeo) in the Commons estimates com- mittee read a Canadian Press Halifax dispatch which quoted «Maj. H. B. Bevan-Jones, Royal Canadian Army Medical Corps as saying nearly all of army re- cruits rejected because of men- tal deficiencies come from New- foundland. Mr. Carter said the rem-ark was unnecessary and uncalled for and the army psychiatrist needed psychiatric treatment. Mr. Carter said the major’s statement could mean the army in Newfoundland was attracting only mental cases. Egan Chambers (PC — Mont- real St. Lawren-ce—-St. George) said: “I thought all the psychotlcs from Newfoundland were down here.” SHOELACES PRESSED? Later, Mr. Chambers asked if the Royal Canadian Regiment still requires its members to press shoelaces and shine the soles of their boots.

To the delight of importers and despair of exporters, the premium on the C‘an-adian dollar has risen to new 1958 heights, powered mainly by heavy borrowing in the United States by Can-ad~a’ls municipalities and provinces. In fact, heavy borrowing by public bodies—particul=a-r-ly those without reserves to fall back on- m-ay become the feature of the 1958 eclonolrnllc picture. The premium on the dollar, in 1-elation to U.S. currency, hit a high of six cents last August and then fell back. dropping to about 1% cents last January. Since then it has been rising. Thursday the dollar opened at a PI'em11l'm of 4 19-64 cents, a high for 1958. To some Canadians the rise may be puzzling in View of the drop in direct foreign investment in Canadian industry and some slackening in the search for new capital by Ca-nad-ia-n business- men.

Fierce Fighting Blazes In Port Town In Lebanon which did not indicate need for an armed force such as Solh has asked.

OTTAWA (CP) — The federal calhinet likely will deal today with a proposal for fedral aid for Nova Scotia’s faltering coal mining industry. But all persons in the know Thursday night refused to dis- close what the Dominion Coal Company wants from the cen- tral treasu-ry to ease its proposed shutdown program for Nova Sco- tia mines. R e v e n u e Minister Nowlan, Nova Scotia’s representative in the calbinet, would say after a series of meetings only that the company submitted a plan and that the cabinet will conlsi-der it. “I expect it will be put before the cabinet tomorrow — if not then, at the earliest possible date,” he said. He said there is a “deflnlte" company proposition to go before the cabinet and‘ that it is sup- ported by the United Mline Work- ers of America, which repre- sents workers in the pits being closed down temporarily for lack of markets. Tom MlcLac-h-Ian, District % president of the UEMW in the Maritime-s, refused to say what the proposition was, after a se- ries of meetings. Premier Stanfield of Nova Sco- tia, who sat in on meetings with Prime Minister Diefenlbaker and federal cabinet ministers, also was non-«committal. REVIEWED SITUATION Mr. Diefenlbalier himself, after meeting a governlment-company- union group in the morning, had nothing to say except that the Nova Scotia situation had been reviewed. Apart from the union and com- pany representatives, those at- tenting Thursday ‘included Craw- ford Gordon of Toronto, pres- ident of A. V.

He was asked whether it might be in the form of additional fed- eral treasury subventions-stun dard assistance on freight rate changes on Canadian - produced coal to get it into markets against comvpetitllon. He said no. Would it be a loan from the treasury "There was no discussion of a loan today," the minister said. Would it be 8 straight federal grant No comment. One thing agreed upon by Mr. ‘Nowlan and Premier in talking to reporter: was that the company proposal was aimed only at the federal government, not calling for Nova Scotia gov- ernment participation. Mr. Sltalnrfield, not commenting pip. the proposal, would say just ls: ‘‘I think all present felt that the prime minister and the other ministers received the represent- ations in a very sympathetic plied information. A concrete manner." — OTTAWIA (ClP)—.A boiling hot controversy over charges of loaf- ing in the ranllos of the federal civil service continued to bubble Thursday as government sup- porter Jack Wratten asked for an independent investigation of efficiency in the transport de- partment. Transport Minister Hees told Mr. Wra.tten that he would not object to such an inquiry in his department if the government should decide to order one. Mr. Wratten, Progressive Con- servative member for Bran-tford, Ont., said during study of trans- port department estimates by the Commons railway commit- tee, that he would apologize if the study proved his charges wrong. Prime Minister Dlefenbaker, asked later by a reporter for comment, replied "no considera- tion has been given to it (an in- vestigation."

ON RIGHT TR.A(X ‘Thursday. he said that from telephone calls he has received “-we are on the right track." “There should be a complete overhaul of the department," Mr. Wratten said, adding that the changes should be extended throughout the civil service. Mr. Wratten spoke in mid-morning. A few hours later, at 3:30 p.m., three men in shirt sleeves were seen on the roof of the Hunter Buildin, in downtown Ottawa, swinging a golf club. The Hunter Building is occupied about 50-50 by staff of the trans- port and public works depart- ments.
