Writer Dies

(CP) Lionel Shapiro, widely-kn-own . Canadian writer, died in hospital here Tuesday night. He was 50 last Feb. 12. »

Cancer was the cause of death.

Shapiro, who re-entered hos-

pital this spring following a se- rious operation last July, started his writing career as a Montreal Gazette sportswriter after grad- uation from McGill University in 1929. .. He was the author of three novels which sold more than 2,- 000,000 copies. Two of the novels as well .93 a shorter story were made into motion pictures by Hollywood.

one of his plays, The Bridge, based on his experiences as a top-rank war correspondent dur- ing the Second World War, was produced in Bristol, England, by the famed Old Vic Company. He also was the author of a number of radio and television plays, pro- duced in England and the United States.

Shapiro was the son of a de- partment store retailer who died when the author was two. His mother went into the dress bus- iness and brought up three boys, but when Shapiro was 16 his two brothers died a year from tuberculosis.

Sugar Beets, ntario Soya Beans Under Price Support

OTTAWA (CP) —- New farmlwheat, oatsland barley not mar-

price stabilization payments cov- ering sugar beets and Ontario soya beans were announced Tues- day by the federal government.

They brought to 10 the number of agricultural products now cov- ered by federal farm price stub- ilization measures and appeared to indicate a government policy favoring deficiency payments for perishable items and price sup- ports for storaible goods.

A deficiency payment is a gov- ernment subsidy to bring the re- turnturn to the producer up to prescribed “stalbilization" level. With price supports. the govern- ment generally buys the items in- volved itself, such as butter and eggs. , I

Agriculture Minister Hurkness said corn and Ontario w‘reat also are under consideration. The government h as promised to bring under price stabilization

keted ‘by the Canadian Wlheat Board, which handles those grains on the Prairies.

STABILIZING FORMULA

Announcing the sugar beet and soya bean prices, Mr. Harkness said beet prices in Alberta, Ma- nitoba, Ontario and Quebec will be stabilized on the basis of gross returnper pound at the factory. =

This is a change from last year’s sugar‘ beet pri e sta~bi‘.iza- tion formula which the minister said leaves the Ontario assist- ance about unchanged and the Western aid a little higher than lastiyear.

Mr. Harkness in the Commons described the beet payments as “deficiency paysments.” The gov- ernment will pay producers the difference between the factory price and the stabilization levels.

U.S. Navy Fires’ New Satellite

CAPE. CANAVEWRAIL, Fla. (AP) A U.S. Navy Vanguard rocket shot skyward Tuesday night, carrying ca 21% pound satellite equipped to solve the secrets of ultraviolet radiation from the sun. ’

An announcement was expected from Washington about two hours after the blastotf, telling if the United States had succeeded in firing its fourth vsatelllite into orbit.

The latest Vanguard rocket was the first in a series of seven designed to shoot, man -. made moons -into orbit as Part of the UJS. contribution to the Interna- tional Geophysical Year.

Its 20-inch, gold-plated sphere is tiny compared with Russia’s 1%-ton Sputnik 20111, but is cap- able of relaying vital information about the sun to scientists on earth.

The satellite houses delicate in- struments to measure ultraviolet hydrogen — known as Lyman alpha rays—-shooting from the run in solar flares.

Scientists suspect that sudden bursts of this radiation. cause phenomena in the _earth’s ino- sphere which affect weather and radio communications. '

The 72-foot,Vangua-rd rocket, painted olive drab and black, streaked straight up through a thick cloud bank and shot aloft for two minutes before it disap- peared into the'bla;ck- sky.

The rocket was a fading pin- point of light as it appeared to arch over toward a level lilight course a split second before it roared out of sight.

The launching appeared suc- cessful to press corps observers stationed 1% miles from the Van- guard site.

Premiers To Holcl Chatsln

London; Drop Conference

By STEWART MacLEOD Canadian Press Staff Writer LONDON (OP) Premier

Robert Stanfield of Nova Scotia said Tuesday the prime minis- ters of the four Atlantic prov- inces will hold a series of “chats” here to replace their annual con- ference, originally scheduled for Newfoundland.

Premier Stanfield arrived at London airport Tuesday to join his -colleagues in launching a new Atlantic provinces of-fice un- der the direction of H. Watson Jamer of Lancaster, N.B., joint agent-general for the four prov- inces. The new office is de- signed to stimulate trade be- tween Britain and the Atlantic region.

The Nova Scotia premier was the last to arrive for Thursday’s

opening ceremonies at the Trafal-

gar Square office. Premiers Matheson of Prince Edward Is- land and Slmallwood of Newfound- land arrived Sunday and Premier Flemming of New Brunswick reached here Monday night}

The interprovincial “chats” are likely to begin at Cherkley Court, country home of Lord Beaver- brook, where all four premiers are staying as guests of the Ca- nadian-aborn peer. The four pro- vincial leaders originally were scheduled to meet in Newfound- land to discuss common prob- lcms. DEV LOP U.K. MARKETS

P emier Stanfield said he hopes the new office here will help attract light industry to Nova Scotia and also develop United Kingdom markets for his .province’s products. He said:

“We are making an effort to

it‘

develop manufacturing in Nova Scotia and the other Atlantic provinces: We are prepared to assist companies that will estab- lish additional plants there, and we are anxious to sell our pro- ducts to this country. On the other hand we are interested in bringing in more British goods.”

Nova Scotia, the only Atlantic province ever to have sent an agent-general here, closed its of- fice in the‘ early 1930s fol- lowing several years of opera- tion. “Now,” said Stanfield, "we are re-establishing that office while the cost is being split four Ways.”

The premiers may continue their discussions in Brussels, where they go Friday for a. five- day’ look at the world trade fair. A statement may be issued be- fore they return home next week.

The report «shows all pro- viucial c o m m a u d s registered gains, from one per cent in Prince Edward Island to almost 15 per cent in Nova Scotia and Newfoundland. .. p The committee recommended that the Legion set as a goal for 1958 a 10-per-cent increase of 1957 membership and that an- other.10-per—cent boost be the ob- jective for 1959. This would increase legion membership to 275,000 by 1959.

Lobster Catches Good In Nfld.

ST. JOHNS, Nfld. (CP)--The federal fisheries department says that if the present trend con- tinues New‘found1~and lobster fish- ermen could have their best year since 1912.

Between April 20, when the season opened, and May 17, the lobster catch in Newfoundland was 2,000,000 pounds, a depart- ment spokesman said. In 1955. the previous high year since 1912, lobstermen ca-ught 2,000,000 pounds between April 20 and May

Resignation

PARIS (AP)——Premier Pfllm- lin won strong support in the Na- tional Assembly Tuesday but im- mediately tried to q " his job in the face of Gen. Charles de

Gaulle’s bold c h alle n g e for power. .

Pflimlin was persuaded by President Rene Coty to stay on until a new government is ready to take over.

Coty then started talks in an effort to find a new Premier.

There were these fast develop- ments: I

1. The National Assembly dc- fied rigxhbist-«military leaders de- manding de Gaulle’s return and gave Pflimlin 1 firm vote of confidence. ,

2. Pflinilin called an emer- gency cabinet meeting.

3. From the cabinet meeting the premier went to call on Pres- ident Rene Coty at Elysee Pal- ace and offered to resign.

4. President Co-ty refused to accept the resignation, saying that it would not be nccepta-ble until a new government is ready to take over. '

5. Coty began consultations in an effort to find a premier to replace Pflimli-n. He did not ac- cept the resignation since he wished to avoid any gap between governments.
