The governor returned from Lon- don Thursday after a week of dis- cussions wlth Prime Minister Eden and other government leaders. He was reported to have broudut hack a new plan to settle the political problems in the troubled island. The English-language newspaper Times of Cyprus says these pro- posals "may contain much that may meet the archbishop's tablec- tion that the last proposals evaded

certain points he considered as vital."

FURIOUS RIOTS FLARE

The talks followed only a few hours after Cypriot schoolboys and girls stoned British troops in an hour of violent rioting-one of the worst that the capital has known. Troops used tear gas and batons to break up demonstrations against the arrest of about 10 students dur- lng riots Thursday in the same place-the square in front of the arcbbishop's palace.

An official statement issued after the student outburst said that two men in the" garb of priests were seen behind the rioters. encourag- ing them to stone the troops.

The troops met a shower oi stones and bottles when they ar- rived at the square. The soldiers hurled stones back at the students and used tear gas and their batons to break up the demonstrators. They arrested several students and rounded up others. aged 12 to 10. and made them clear the de- brls from the square.

CF-lOO's Now Being Put lnio Storage

OTTAWA (GP) - The defence department has reached I point it has been dreading for some time: Its going to have to sink minions of dollars into aircraft for which there's no immediate requirement. informants said Friday that this will be cheaper in the long run than shutting down production lines and then having to reopen them when a newer type plane is ready for the assembly line.

The nine CF-100 jet interceptor squadrons for home defence now are completely equipped and the RCAF is beginning to put CF-100s into storage. A CF-100 costs about 500,000.

One informant said a ftuther production cut may be necessary at A. V. Roe Canada Ltd. of Mal- ton, Ont.. manufacturer of the cr-100. Avro at one time was turning out 25 jet Interceptors a month but this production scale was reduced last year to 10 a month.

CONTINUING PROBLEM

This whole ya ' ' ' ping the relatively small 41-squadron RCAF equipped with the most moderl planes--is one that continually he- sets the defence department. Fighter squadrons need the lat- est-type aircraft if they are to be at all effective in the event of ”war. Manufacturers can complete ordera fairly uickly but unl&i they can also aka sales abroad they have to wait until new types of planes have been designed. bull and tested. And nearly all coun- tries are reluctant to buy another nation's warplane. g

With hangars full of CF-100s. it will still be several years before the 1.500-miles-an-hour CF-loshvili be ready for squadron service. I it is -successful.
