UNITED NATIONS. N.Y. (AP) While the non-Communist world generally produced an all - time record quantity of goods and power in 1955. the Communist sphere pro- duced an ever-increasing share.

This was shown in the 1956 is- sue of the UN statistical yearbook riiblished Sunday. The M6-page book contained much information not before available from Russia. Ilfd (fhina. and the countries of Eastern Europe.

INCREASING ACTIVITY

The Communist sphere. while not achieving the same levels. was increasing its industrial Ictivity faster than the rest.,

In the use of commercial sources of power (mainly coal. petroleum and hydro-electric energy), In in- dex of industrial activity. the Com- munist countries expanded 156 per cent from 1937 to 1955. Over the same period. the rest of the world raised energy consumption by 87 per cent.

Thus the Communist countries increased their share of world con- sumption from 16 per cent in 1937 to 22l2 per cent in 1055.

Still these countries have not reached the level of energy con- sumption of the rest of the world. Theirs amounted to the equivalent of .85 metric tons of coal font: metric ton eqiiais 2.200 pounds) 1955. compared with 1.14 metric tons in the rest of the world.

Tecing told newspaper men: "The prospect of I common mar- ket. in which Britain will have to compete. has altered the old point of view. A tunnel is far the cheap- est way of getting goods to the Continent."

The price of shares in the Brit- ish Channel Tunnel Company shot up from two shillings, six pence (35 cents) to 10 shillings. sixpence 61.47) last week.

The British press has reported that a New York firm called Technical Studies Inc. has ap- proached Britain with I proposal to restudy the technical and fi- nnnclal possibilities of I tunnel.

U. S. Marines lei Public Look At Training

By REM PRICE

PARRIS ISLAND S.C.. - IAPV - A drill instructor of the U.S. Ma- rines had what he called an "idiot type" recruit double-timing around I small circle.

As the panting hoot - Lowest form of Marine life - circled i'or the umpteenth time. an obviously irate middle-aged woman charged the sergeant and said:

"I've been watching you. I'm going to tell your officers. You ought to be ashamed. treating that soldier that way."

All the astonished sergeant could think of to IIy was "Lady. there ain't no soldiers around here."

As much as Inything this inci-

This is sometimes annoying. sometimes downright irritating to the marines themselves, but it represents a deterination on the part of the corps' commandant, Gen. Randolph Pate. to prove that in the training of recruits the ma- rines have nothing to hide.

A year ago. the way marines i were trained at this off-the-beatem ltrack post was considered by the marines to be nobody's business but the marines'.

"Thumping." or the striking of recruits. apparently was an ac- cepted practice among the drill in- structors. Dangerous hazing was seemingly commonplace.

Then last year on the chili Sun- day night of April I! S.Sgt. Mat- thew C. lllcI(eon. I 31-year-old drill instructor from Worcester. Mass. led 74 raw recguits into the deep. sucking mud of I tidal flat. Six were drowned.

Marine training methods imme- diately became I matter of in- tense conccrn. With the threat of I congressional investigation hang- ing over their heads. the marines promised a thorough housc-clean-

Liizcnberg. then base commander. threw open the post to public in- spcctlnn.

Some indication of public inter- est is thc fact that in the Inst eight months slightly more than 24.000 tourists have driven the 20 miles from U.S. route 17. about halfway between Charleston. S.C.. and Savannah. Ga.. to take I look for themselves.

Among the drill instructors there is some feeling that the corps hII moved from one extreme to the other. Prior to last April 8 the drill instructors operated with only cur- sory officer supervision. Just about every time a drill instructor sneezes now there is an officer around.

One result of this close super- vision is the increased court-man tial hazard. Drill instructors feel that they are being tried for of- fences that would go unnoticed in I Boy Scout troop.
