IEBILSINIG. Finland. Aug. 1Q _ (AD-Troops were called out to. 115i’ following the first outbreak o: violence in a new Commtinigt strike offensive. A Government official said the offensive is designed to make Finland into a, Qommuntsg state.

The first skirmish was in the lumbering town of Kemi, in North- ern Finland. on the Gulf of Bothnla. Police and striking tum. berjaclcs exchanged ilre after up to l..i00 strikers ltIlélSllfld through lXilico lines tit nzi effort to attack workers who were reporting to; ditty at a timber-sorting dam.

One striker was regini-tt-ti shot as

police, struggling to disperse til; sttrglirg luittbcrjrks with mack. 1114 bombs. fired W11 3' Ttitl. into the zur. The strikers retaliated with pistol

fire.

Another man fell to the ground and was run over by a car. Six other strikers were taken to hos- pital and 10 pOLlCCItlOII were hurt; by flying stones. Police said the skir-mish lasted 20 minutes.

Gen, Blick of the Finnish army, said 200 soldiers had arrived in Kemi from Oulu, 60 miles south. The Government declared yesterday the strike at Kemi is illegal.

The outbreak was the first viol- ence in what the Govermient. clos- crtbes as a country-wide strike of- fensive, the aim oi which is "to create chaos in order to usurp power and establish a people's democracy (Communist. Govern- ment) in Finland."

Labor Minister Unto Varjonne said the Government intends to "inflict a crushing defeat on the Communists." Varjoitcn heads a Cabinet board Chosen to deal with strike threats.

A majority of Fiiilands trade union morn ers are non-Commitm- ists and some 200,000 oi the 300,- 000 unionists may defy the strike call. A walkout of 100,000 mem- bers. hclwever, could seriously up- sot the country's economic life. Virtually all unions have announ- cod strike nciionswitltin the next eight days, and some of them went on strike today.

The Govcrrmeni. Suomen Scsialidcrriokraati said it believed tltc Communists were seeking to lead Finland down the same road as that taken by Czechoslovakia, where the Com- munists seized power in a coup in

(By The Canadian Preu)

TORONTO, Aug. 18—Margarct Lynn Munn. a uiillowy, 24-year- old North Vancouver blonde, to- night won the Miss Canada title. $3,000 in scholarships and the honor of representing Canada in the Miss America contest.

Tall and talented, the west coast girl was an easy winner in a field of 80 girls who paraded before a crowd of only 1,000 in Maple Leaf Gardens. The beauty pag- eant, scheduled for two nights, was ctit to one because of low public interest.’

Miss Munn, n stenographer and part-time night club singer who has lived in Toronto for two years, topped her performance in I bathing cult with unmatched turns at the piano and micro- phone. She played Chopin's Min- ute Waltz with almost profession- al ease and sang an aria from Ln Travlata in a well-trained voice.

Joan Durreli. 20, a sophisticat- ed Toronto blonds with a night- club singing , took second place and a scholarship of $2,000. Arlene Markle. 22. Toronto red- head who also lanl. Wll third and won a $1.000 lcholartllilp.

These seven |irl| who were not rated in order. won $500 scholar- ships: Betty Brown. Mlmico. Ont; Gloria Grey, Winalwll Bette Ca-

therine Kane, Halifax; Elizabeth Lyons, Toronto; Laureen Mae Marcenkc, Ottawa; Joan McPher- son. Vancouver; Dorothy Van Sickler, Toronto. Miss Kane was the sole Maritime contestant.

1 Margaret Bradford, Cobourg, Ont, won a special $500 ‘ ‘ ship for singing,

Trembling a: rho took over the throne from Betty Jean Fargucon of Halifax, last year's winner, Miss Munn said she was 6 feet, six inches tall, weighed I23 and her bust. waist and hip rnealure- merits were 88, 28 and 84.

She has perfect teeth. darkish blonde hair and leaned a little thin as she stood beside lhorter girls.

The girls, most in their late teens, had been rushed around Tor-onto from morning to mid- night for three days while eight judges trailed them and noted ev- erything from their table mann t. to the size of their feet.

Tonight they appeared in even- ing gowns. bathing suits and in a talent show.

Their acts included the usual singing. dancing. dramatic sketch- es, playing of musical instrument! and an unusual political talk by Freda Stevenson of Ottawa who ha: been moved by the proximity of Parliament to study political science. _

Ten high grade Jersey heifer calves were sold, the P. E. I. Jer- sey Cattle Club obtained funds to go over the top in the Cana- dian Jersey Cattle Club's drive for funds and the Jersey breed on the whole was strengthened as the result of the sale of Jersey calves at the Exhibition grounds yesterday morning.

Average selling price of each calf was $108.00. Dr. J’. P. Lantz's junior reserve champion took top individual price selling to Mr. Campbell MacKay, Rothesay, N. B. for $190.00.

Splendid ctr-operation was re- ceived from the breeders in do- nating the calves. Mr. Bruce Mac- Kinley, North River donated his only heifer calf which sold for the price of $155. Judge Norman Bagg was warm in his praise of this animal stating she would have placed well in her class at the Exhibition had she been entered. The following members of the club donated heifer calves: Dr. J. P. Lantz, Keppoch Jersey Farm: Edison B. Mutch, North River; Arthur MacDonald. Forest Hill; Harold Stead, Brackley: Fred Coles, Milton; J. ‘B. MacLean. Mil- ton; Bruce MacKinlcy, North River; Bruce MacDonald, North Wiltsliire; Ernest Utiderhny, Sour- is Enst and George MncMillan. C rnwnll.

StunningI-Blow To President Truman's Plan

WASHINGTON. Aug. 18 -(AP) -—'I‘he House of Rcprcscntatlves to- night approved. by a vote of 238 to I2, an $869,505,000 program of arm- ing foreign countries. Earlier the House dealt the Truman Actriinisz- ration a stunning blow by cutting lo half the $l,l60.'.'J00.00-0 arms plan for Western Europe.

The House slaslicd $380,495,000 from the program designed to strengthen non-Communist count- ries against Russian aggression. The entire ctrt vras ntadc in the furicls sought for Westr-rit llurotpr-an mein. bcrs of lilo North Atlantic Secur- ity Treaty.

1. Will the Communists car- ry out their threat tmtake the British crown colony by force‘!

2. Will Britain ﬁght back?

8. Will the United States support Britain?

Britain Determined

Britain has provided the answer to the second question: She will resist any attempt to wrest from her the island territory ceded by China in 1841. The Hang Kong garrison has ‘been heavily re- inforced as an indication of Brit- ain's determination to hang on to this rich commercial outpost.

Defence of Hong- Kong is an- other matter. It: capture by the Japanese in l94l—despite a gal- lant fight by British andCanadian troops—provides an all-too-clear commentary on the colony's vul- nerabﬁity.

That is why the British as well as the Americans are keenly in- terested to know what the United States Government’: attitude would be in the event of an attack on I-Iong Kong.

Right now it is a cautious, wait- and-see attitude.

State Secretary Dean Acheson, however, has implied publicly what. seems obvious: the United States would do what it could to help Britain.

American Support Seen

He indicated at a press confer- ence that the United States would oppose, at least through the Unit- ed Nations, any aggressive Com- munist move against Hong Kong. His careful comment was interp- reted as leaving the way open for all-out American support of Brit- atn.

Any action at Hong Kong which violates the U. N. charter would call for action by the Security Council, and the United States would live up to its obligations under the charter, he llld.

The Washington Star, which approves of the official caution, notes nevertheless that effective United Nations action is "prcb- lematlcal."
