Born while the mother was alone in a small Volkswagen car stuck in snow drifts on the highway be- tween the R.C.A.F. Station and the town of Summersidc at 6:05 a.m. yesterday morning and while the father frantically tried to locate a telephone to man help, the lovely little daughter of Flying Of- ficer and Mrs. Ken Davison weigh- ed in at 8 pound . 3 ounces. and is healthy and well.

Proceeding on the five-mile drive to the Prince County Hos- pital in Summerside. the Davisons had departed from their home at the airport married quarters at 5:30 a.m. They were accompanied by an Airforce snow blower which was found to be low on gas. and which had to return to the air- station for refuelling.

After waiting for some time. Flying Officer and Mrs. Davison realized that the snow blower might not return in time. and de- cided to proceed alone towards Summerside. previous reports having indicated that the roads to town were passable.

on reaching a point between the Curran and Briggs Eleanors corner. snow drifts and stranded cars blocked- their way, and drifting snow anchored their

lot and St. d

A.F. station.

With no other alternative. and because of the urgency of the situ- ation. Flying Oflcer Davison left his wife in the car as he waded through the snow storm to sum- mon help. On locating a telephone he contacted the R.C.A.F. base and sought an ambulance and medical assistance.

Hastening back to the car he found that in his absence the baby had already been born. llnd be administered wh'at help he could to his new born daughter. He made both wife and child as com- fortable as drcumstances per- mitted in the limited space of the small car. before an ambulanc arrived on the scene bringing Nur- sing Sister Kay Arac, who per- formed the necessary medical at- tention.

With the assistance of an R.C. A.F. snow blower. F-0 Davison turned his small car around a nd proceeded to the R.C.A.F. Station hospital. from where they were transferred yesterday afternoon to the Prince County Hospital where both mother and daughter are restling comfortably after their or-

Cigarets Ancl Lung Cancer

NEW YORK (AP) - A study (foul) of seven scientists reported Friday there is a direct relation- ship between cigaret smojing and lung cancer.

"Lung cancer occurs much more frequently (five to 15 tlmesi among

smokers. and there is a direct re- Iationship between the incidence Oi lung cancer and the amount smoked." the report said.

Two sponsors of the study group. the American Cancer So- city and the American Heart Asso- ciation. issued statements saying they had not yet studied nor eval- uated the report.

The tobacco lndustry declared the report "apparently offers no original evidence." It said the re- port relies heavily on statistics that have been "widely questioned by other scientists as to their sig- nificance."

ISCONNECTION

The report of the study group said in part:

"It is estimated that on a life- time basis, one of every 10 men. who smoke over two packs a day will die of lung cancer. The com- parable risk among non-smokers is estimated at one out of 275. . . . "The sum total of scientific evi- dence establishes beyond reason- able doubt that cigarct smoking is a causative factor in the rapidly increasing incidence of human ep- idermold u.uClI'l0IIIB (cancer) of the lung."

It said. however. that studies in- dlcate "that clgaret smoking can- not account for all cases" of lung cancer.

CAIRO (AP) - UN Secretary - General Dag Hsmmarskjold and scheduled a marathon meeting for today in an effort to find face- Egyptian President Nasser have saving solutions to Middle East deadlocks.

They arranged for talks to be- gin in mid-morning Saturday at Nasser's resthouse in a park on the Nile eight miles north Cairo. These will continue through lunch and on into the afternoon.

This second meeting between the two since the secretary - general arrived here early Thursday fol- lowed almost continuous sessions Friday between Iiammarsklold and Egyptian Foreign Minister Mahmoud Fnwzl. Altogether the two talked together more than 12 hours Thursday and Friday.

Hsmmarskjold and Fswzi. both international lawyers. were seek- ing to thread their way through such tangles as the Suez Canal. the Gaza Strip and the Gulf of Aqaha.

WANTS SOLUTIONS

It appeared Fnwzi wants solu- lions which would make President Nasser co-operative in Western eyes without seeming to surrender in Arab eyes.

On Palestine, Ilammarskjold is seeking peace within the frame- work of the I949 armistice.

In one meeting. the pair talked with Nasser. Hamms slriold usu- ally had UN undersecretary Dr. Ralph Bunche with him.

Since the UNEF ommander. E- L. M. Burns. par- tlclpated in the afternoon meeting. it almost certainly dealt with UNEF problems in the Gaza Strip and on the shore of the Gulf of Aqaba.

In working to establish full com- pliance with the armistice agree- ment liammsrekjold is seeking to establish a state of non-beIllger- ency which in his view would take away Egypt's legal basis for any blockade of Israeli shipping in the Suez Canal and the Gulf of Aqaha. Egypt may not agree to that.

On the question of the canal. Ilammarakjold is pressing for a broadening and modernization of

tlon to provide for the fixing of oeximum tolls and for some kind of reporting to the United Nations. The 1880 convention called for keeping the canal open to all na- tions.

On this point. lhe Egyptian- have presented no serious objec- tions as yet.

A tougher problem is the setting up of some kind of users' organi- sation that would be recosnll-Hi by Egypt to negotiate with the Cairo government on ttlls. canal devel- opments and so on.

Fluoride Case

UITAWA (CP)-Seven judges of the Supreme Court of Canada have taken under advisement the ques- tion of whether Metropolitan Tor- onto has the power to add fluoride to water it supplies its 13 consti- tuent municipalities.

Argument was completed Friday in the Court on the contentlurr by Metro-the City of Toronto and 12 adjacent municipalities that share certain public utilities-that it has the power, and by hold-out Forest Hill. a fashionable suburb that says Metro hasn't.

At issue was an order by the Court of Appeal for Ontario quash- ing a Metro by - law authorizing fluoridation. which medical auth- orlties advocate as a means of reducing the ' ” ce of dental

decay.

Forest Hill's first challenge of the by-law was thrown out. its ap- peal. however. was sustaincd in the Appeal Court. which ruled the by-law to be beyond Metro's pow- era.

OTTAWA. (Special)-An appeal to the Government to establish part of the Provincial Building at Charlottetown as an historic site and national shrine was made in the budget debate here Friday by Neil A. Matheson. Liberal M.P. for Queens. In particular, Mr. Maiheson wanted the chamber where the original conferences was held I ”' to Confederation. to be preserved.

The project of making part of the Provincial Building an historic site had been sponsored both by the Prince Edward Island Histor- ical Society and the Charlottetown Board of Trade. Mr. Mathcson said. lie had found support of the suggestion from prominent men in several provinces and had not heard a word of dissent from any- one.

ii was of particular historic im- portance to preserve the Provin- cial Building in Charlottetown where Confederation was given birth. because the building where the pact was actually signed in Quebec City had been demolish- ed. Mr. Matheson told the house. It would be a crime. he said. to lose the historic building in Char- lottetown.

It was true. he said that while Island hogs did not take top places in the live classes. they scored heavily in exhibits of dressed carcasses. in connection with the feed grain for hogs, Mr. Maths-son expressed the hope that better quality feed grain would be shipped from the West in future years.

FREIGHT RATE REVISION

Mr. Matheson welcomed re- visions to the Maritime Freight Rates Act which will enable pro- ducers of bulk farm products to ship at less cost and compcte to better advantage in the markets of Central Canada. Despite the actual and promised reforms in freight rates. further action was essential. the Queens member said.

He expressed the hope that fa- vorable results would emerge from the conferences of Canadian a nd

The Federal Gov- ernment. he said. was improving conditions for visitors to the Pro- vincc. with tenders now being cal- led for highway construction from Dalvay to Stanhope Beach on the Gulf Shore road.

Mr. Matheson praised the gov- ernment for increasing old age and veterans pensions in the pre- sent budget. In conclusion he blasted the diet faddists who are condu ing s , mpaign against the use of whole milk.

It was the second time. he said. that St. Dunstan's had scored top honors in the debating contests. in five years. On other occasions. the Charlottetown team had reach- ed the semi-finals.

TUCKEft'S TOWN, Bermuda. (CPI-The Bermuda conference site was used Friday for a United States announceme t of its will- lngness to join the military com- mittee of the Baghdad Pact - a step which Britain warmly wel- comed as leading to closer co-op- eration in the Middle East.

President Eisenhower's press secretary, James Hagerty. mak- ing the announcement to corres- pondents here. said the decision did not come from the Eis- enbower-Macmillan talks. It had been derided upon at least two weeks ago but was conveyed only Thursday to the Baghdad Pact members and Prime Minister Macmillan.

The announcement said the United States had advllsed the pact members of U.S. willingness to join the pact's military commit- tee if invited to do so. This would permit Washington to collaborate with other groups in a common t ' against Communist ag- gression-
