SOLID DETERMINATION

H o w e v er, Mr. Thorneycroft added that he was "heartened" by the "solid determination" of the two governments to expand Anglo-Canadian trade and in- dicated there would be further talks on this issue though no specific date had been set.

Prime Minister Diefenbaker. asked to amplify on this point, said he would not go beyond the test of the communique: This stated that" in view of the long- term nature of the U.K. proposal -tariffs and import curbs would be reduced over a period of 13 or 15 years-the Canadian minis- ters were not asked for an ex- pression of views.

However. it was understood that the Canadian government has not rejected the proposal; that it wiH be given careful and detailed study and that some ape ciai body may be set up to exerti- ine all its ramifications. includ- in a study of what Canadian in- dustries might be hurt by it.

HALIFAX (CPI -- Two North- ern Ontario brothera. both engin- eera, will launch a search this month for the fabled treasure of Nova Scotia's Oak Island. the Nova Scotia bureau of informa- tion announced here Friday.

The brothers. who say they wish to remain anonymous for the present. have completed a deal with M. R. Chappell of Syd- ney. He owns the south end of the island in MI-hone Bay and holds the treasure trove rights. Hundreds of thousands of dol- lars have been spent for treasure hunt: on the island between 1795. when the supposed cache was first discovered and 1955. when the last at was abandoned. George J. Grune. a cigar chewing petroleum e ng in eer from Corpus Christi. Tex.. drilled on the island two years ago. He

found enough to convince him an-

other try would be worthwhile.

The cache consists of 13 - foot square pit, which drilling re- vealed is at least 153 feet deep. Treasure hunters surmise the shaft is connected to the sea by a hidden funnel. causing flooding which has hampered sev eral searches.

Just who constructed the elab- orate safety deposit box on the tiny island. a quarter of a mile offshore in Mshone Bay. is a matter of conjecture. Many au- thorities favor the famous Eng- lish pirate Capt. Henry Morgan; others nominate Capt. Kidd. A third group feels the pit in the work of various 17th Century Spanish or Frenaifreebooters.

The speculators agree, how- ever. that such an immense feat of enginee lug could only have been justified by the need of a safe hiding place for a fabulous treasure.

LONDON (CP)-The Russians announced they hung an artificial I moon 560 miles out into spacel Friday and it is streaking) around the world at enonnous speed today.

They said it can be seen on its orbit with binoculars and fol- lowed by radio through instru- ments it carries. in thus announcing the launch- ing of the first earth satellite ever put in globe-girdling orbit under man's controls. the Soviet Union claimed a victory over the United States. planning to launch its satellites next spring.

A Moscow broadcast said:

"The successful launching of the first man-made satellite makes a tremendous contribution to the treasure house of world science and culture. . .

SPACE BAVEL NEXT?

"Artificial earth satellites will pave the way for space travel and it seems that the present generation will witness how the freed and conscious labor of the people of the new socialist soci- ety turns even the rnost daring of man's dreams into reality. . ."

In a special bulletin early this morning. the Soviet ass agency said the Russian moon "is now revolving around the earth at the rate of one circuit every hour and 46 minutes.”

The launching occurred just three months and four days after the opening of the international Geophysical Year.

The broadcast said the satellite now is revolving around the earth along an elliptic trajectory at an estimated height of Bill ' ”ometcr. (560 miles).

The broadcast quoted the offl- ciai Tass news agency as saying:

"For several years research and experimental designing work has been under way in the Soviet Union to create artificial satel- lites of the earth.

"it has already been reported in the press that the launching ii the earth satellites in tin u.s.s.n. was planned in accord- ance with the program of the in- ternational Geophysical Year re- search.

"As a result of the intensive work by research institutes and designing bureaus the first artifi- cial earth satellite in the world has now been created.

"This first satellite was suc- cessfully launched in the u.s.s.n. on October 4.”

) it was said at the time that one lmore of these smaller objects .might get into an orbit around file earth. though for a van short time.

The little ones would be only 6.4 inches in diameter and weigh only four pounds. compared will 22 pounds the larger satellite is expected to weigh.

Tass said the Russian satellite is a sphere and carries a radio transmitter.

It is 58 centimeters (about 23 inches) in diameter and weighs 3.6 kilograms (about 1!!) pounds).

its flight could be observed is the rays of the rising and setting sun with the aid of siplme op- tical instruments such as binocu- lars and my glasses. Tau sail it was launched from a carrier rocket.

A complete revolution of the earth would take one hour. SI minutes.

MIAMI BEACH. Fla. (AP) - Stubby sq uare jawed Jimmy Hoffa Friday took over full con- trol as president of the giant in- ternational brotherhood of teams- ters and pledged to turn the or-

' ' into a "model of trade unionism."

The 44-year-old target of labor scandal charges w as elected chief officer of the l.5(Il.0W- member union by a margin of nearly 3 to 1 over the combined votes of his two opponents.

in the final count, l, zos del- egates voted for Hoffa. 313 for William A. Lee and 140 for Thomas J. Haggerty. r

Lee and Haggerty. both from Chicago. had campaigned for a cleanup of the corruption condi- tions charged to the union.

The charges against Hoffa in- cluded associating with known hoodlum and .aclreteers.

DENIIDCEARGIS

Hoffa. denying the charges as a smear. said he and the team- stera union "have just coma through the most vicious attach any group of workers has ever experienced.-Ne rer in history has so much outside effort been ex- erted of the internal affairs of s free organization."

But troubles for Hoffa and his union are far from over. it faces an almost certain ouster frorr the AFL-CIO. a renewed investi- gation by the Senate rackets in vetigating committee headed by Senator John McClellan and a court attempt to throw him out of his newly won union office.

McClellan said in Washington HoQa's election was "an arrogant defiance of the Al'IrCZO.' The federation judged Hoffa corrupt and unfit to remain in organized labor.

Labor Secretary James P. Mit- chell said in Chicago that iloffa's election win ' certainly lead to "repressive" labor legislation in congress.
