At a representative meeting of the dealers held Sept 10. they were told by the Government to try to form an organisation of their own which would be handled by mem- bers of that group in much the same manner in which members of the Bar or the medical profes- sion are responsible for their con- duct to that organization. They were also advised to try to arrive at a price to the farmer quoted from the point of shipment rather than tell him what he could ab- taln for his crop in Montreal or Toronto.

At the same time it was pro- posed that the producers form an organization with a sort of iiason between the two. "The dealers," said the Premier. "did not agree with the scheme. but were willing to make certain compromises. The Marketing Board turned it down flat." He quoted Mr. Donald A.

The signing of the trade pact here follows: by only a few days the publication in Soviet newspa- pers - for the first time since i040 - of accounts of a speech made by assident Tito.

The Russian press reports of the Sept. 18 qaeseh refrain from call- ing the Yugoslav leader a "hang- man" or other unflattering epithets used against Tito in Stalin's days. The newspapers refer to him re- spectfully as "the president of Yugoslavia."

Scandal Breaks Wide Open

PAM! (Reuters) - !'ranea'a most sensational security scan- , dal since the Second world War broke wide open Friday night with the suspension from office of Jean Mons, secret- ary-genersl of French national defence.

The suspension of the former French resistance leader came after two high officials were charged with treason for al- legedly leaking the country's top defence secrets to Com- munist agents,

One of the two senior civil servants who were charged with treason after an all- nlght grilling by security police is Rene Turpin, principal pri- vate secretary to 48-year-old Mons, who headed the secre- tariat of the national defence council. The other was Roger Labrusse, who was head of internal defence affairs for the council's secretariat.

Russia Maggy.- Have IOD Subs In Pacific Ocean

TYLER, Tex. (AP) - The chief of U.S. naval operations, Admiral Robert B. Carney. said Friday the Russian fleet may have as many as 100 submarines operating in Pacific waters.

"We know that in the Siberian and Manchurian waters. they are continually carrying out exercises developing team work between sur- face ships. aircraft and submar- ines." Carney aaid in an address prepared for the Rose festiv here. t

It is obvious these exercises are designed to build up both offen- sive and defensive tactics, Carney said. A

surprise veto, France Friday Ian to free and rearm West defwce alliance. The action

may prevail overnight.

After the conference had been reported moving rapidly toward success. France suddenly rejected a compromise plan to bring West Germany within the North Atlantic Treatyg alliance and an enlarged seven-nation Brussels conference alliance.

(Reuters news agency reported that Britain, France. the U. S and Germany had hammered out a pact which, in effect, would end the occupation of West Germany immediately. They planned to pub- lish today a "declaration of in- tent" pledging sovereignty to Ger- many in the near future.

(Reuters quoted French officials as saying Friday night that France will sign the declaration today despite the bitch on arms control and the possibility that the French parliament may disapprove of the sovereignty action.

(The way thus seemed clear for ending the nine-year allied occupa- tion in West Germany although the French disagreement made the question of rearming the defence- less nation seem almost as tough as ever, Reuters added.)
