Dairy Association has conducted "id

swept cottages, boathouses and piers before it Thursday in the worst ice jam on the lower Nia- garn river in nearly two decades.

The combined efforts of U.S. army engineers. the U.S. coast guard and swarms of local resi- dents were inadequate to halt the destruction as ice continued to plunge over Niagara Falls and down into the jam.

The destruction area was

centred in the final six-mile stretch of the river before it empties into Lake Ontario. The shores were a shambles from Lewlston down to Ft. Niagara on the U.S. side and from Queenston to Nlagara-on-th- Lake on the Canadian side. - The jamming ice threatened the 75-foot high Lewiston suspension bridge. Ice was packed under the span and officials estimated it was rising about its feet an hour.

POSES DANGER

The ice jam above the falls poses the greatest danger to the

deavour to continuously Gxllllldlbrldge. Officials said if the upper

jam breaks first the ice may dam- age the structure.

Along the lower river. shore res- idents feverishly carted household goods sway. fearful that more de- struction was imminent.

Information on the talks was given to re rters after Pravda. organ of s Soviet Communist

day what Western officials called a distorted version of the negotia- tions.

Pravda accused the West of using the talks as "a screen for concealing an uuitammellcd arms drive and tions."

DISCLOSES NEW PLAN

The newspaper said Russia had submitted "a proposal providing for the conclusion of an interna- tional convention on armaments- reduction and on the banning of atomic. hydrogen and other typ of weapons of mass destruction."

"Over a period of six months or one yesr," it quoted the plan. "the states will reduce their arm- aments and armed forces by 50 per cent of the agreed limits and also their allocations for miu-

purpose -' Reduction by the remaining 50 per cent would be accompanied by abolition of stocks of nuclear wan-

then.

The Soviet proposal called for "s , may con I commis- sion" to supervise the disarm- ament program.

The long-awaited announcement of plans to construct an experimental reactor to produce electricity was made Thursday in the Commons by Trade Minister Howe and

in the Ontario legislature by

Mr. Howe said the plant. ex- pected to produce 21.000 kilowatts of electric power. will be pt I site to be decided jointly by On- tario hydro and Atomic Energy of Canada Ltd.. which operates the Chalk River. 0nt.. atomic project.

The plant would be located within easy reach of the Chalk River project because it is the centre of nuclear information in Canada. .

SHARE PROJECT

Ontario's bydro's share of the project would be between 33,000,- 000 and Canadian Gen- eral Electric would absorb a "sizeable" portion of the cost and the remainder would be paid by the crown-owned AECL.

Mr. Howe said detailed design of the reactor will start imme- diately with s view to completion of construction in mid-1058. The plant was not expected to gen- erate electrlcity economically but its operation would provide in- formation requlred for construc- tion of an economic plant.

Under a three-way agreement. AECL would be responsible for the specifications and cost of the reactor. Ontario hydro would pay for the site and the conventional part of the plant. including the huildlng to house the reactor.

Mr. I-lows said Canadian Gen- eral Electric was awarded the contract for construction of the reactor because it. was felt the company has the design. engin- eerlng and maoufact ug resour-
