Prices generally were higher for the consumer. A major exception was meat prices which decreased alter a sharp spring and summer upward drivc.

Prices increased for eggs. but- ter. milk. coffee. fruits. coal and coke. fall and winter clothing. footwear tires. certain drugs and other items. A

With September's advance. the Bureau estimated that living costs had climbed 00.3 per cent . since August. 1080. The index is cal- culated on ltiliao basis that 1935-39

Adoption-Of

Measure likely

NEW YORK, Nov. 3 - (OP) - The United Nations Assembly to- day approved by 52 to five a West- ern-backed proposal for is veto- free system of collective security giving the U, N. power to meet ag- gression with armed force on a few hours notice.

For the first time in U. N. his- tory, the Assembly was empower- ed lo ask for troops if the securitv Council fails to handle aggression immediately.

Assembly President Nasrollah En- tezam hailed the action as perhaps. the most important ever taken uy any U. N. Assembly.

One of those who strongly sup- ported the anti-aggression prcposal was L.B. Pearson. Canada's Ex- ternal Affairs Minister and leader of the Dominion's U. N. delegntlott Pearson said the world should not allow a repetition of the betrayal of collective security such as hap- pened in the 1030s.

Entezam in effect called on all U. N. members to back up the res- olution bv placing armed forces on call for UN. tlsc, which was one of the key sectigns of the plan. He told the delegates after the volc: "It is now for us to show the world we are uniting for peace."

Meanwhile, the 60-country poll":- ical committee of the Assembly ap- proved at Lake Success R resolution calling aggressive war the gravest crime against humanity. The whole resolution was approved, 47 vote! to flvc. The Soviet bloc opposed the resolution but abstained on the particular section referring to eg- gressive warfare. Yugoslavia ab- stained on the whole resolution.

Canadian Advance Party Reaches Japan

(Dave Mclntosh. Canadian Press staff writer who covered depart- ure from Seattle of the advance party of Canada's special brigade two weeks ago, was at the dock- side in Yokohama when they ar- rived today. Mclntosh, 29-year-old Air Force veteran of the Second World war. flew in Japan with the Canadian air lift. He' will spend some weeks reporting from the a;-ea, with special attention to Canadian and common activities.

(CP)-'l'lic Korea-bound advance party of Canada's special brigade ended its Pacific crossing here to- day and made ready to sail Sun- day to join the United Nations forces.

The 350-man group is expected to move into the rear Rl'f.'l1 behind the fighting front in Northern Korea. to set up an cstabllshnicnt for whatever main body of Can- adian troops is sent to Korea.

The advance troops. iina.vt'a:'e they worn headed for Korea until they docked licrc. made port nficr

a smooth two weeks' crossing of the Pacific from Seattle aboard the United States transport James O'Hara,

They reported an uneventful voyage. with little seasickness. though the James O'Hara. just

missed a typhoon when approach- ing Japan.

The O'Hara will leave with them Sunday on the final leg of the! sea trip to Korea. probably ar- riving at Pusan Tuesday.

it is expected the Canadians will be moved promptly into the area north of the 38th parallel, Lhouglt no definite plans were an-l nounced. -

The advance party is made up such specialists as cooks. clerks. drivers and tradesmen needed to set up a camp for the Canadians following it to Korea.

It is not made up of "fig.liting" troops. though its members llilllt-V received advanced individual training since joining the special force. About 95 per cent are vet- erans of the Second World War.

Thcy are under command of General M:icArtliur. llnitcd Nat- ions commander in Korea. and

will move under his direction.
