The residence was beautiful with lovely bouquets of daffodils, and ons in pastel tints while the tea table was festooned with streamers in the same delicate shades, centering from the chande- llers, and featured an imposing three-layer wedding cake artistic- ally decorated and adorned with fragrant sweet peas. Many beautiful cards, wishing the bride and groom much happiness on attaining their silver wedding anniversary, were also in evidence and greatly admired as well as a gift book presented by Rev. and Mrs. H. W. O'Brien, Bowmanville.

Army Intact dy JOHN DAUPHINEE Press Staff Writer don, May 2--(CP) -- One of Hitler's aims ordering the Ar- dennes offensive late in 1944 was to capture the whole First Canadian and force Canada's with- drawal from the war, says a To- ronto intelligence officer who work- ed on the official war history. Milton Shulman, who specialized on the German battle order in the West, bases his statement on dis- closures in a prisoner-of-war camp by Lt. Gen. Fritz Bayerlein, com- mander of the German Panzer Lehr Diisten, First Canadian Army at the time of Ardennes was in Holland, part of Field Marshal Montgam- ery's 21st Army Group. In his book "Defeat in the West," just published here (Secker and War- burg, 15s.), Shulman uses Bayer- lein's words to describe a special briefing Hitler gave the Ardennes commanders Dec. 12, 1044: "Hitler looked sick and broken, and began to read from a long pre- pared manuscript , . . He then went into the details of the Ardennes of- fensive, telling us what formations Ques involved and what they were 0. "The object of the attack was to. capture Antwerp in 14 days and at the same time trap Montgomery's 21st Army Group in Holland. "The loss of so large a force would cause Canada to withdraw from. the war, and thoroughly dis- courage the. United States about continuing the struggle." "Defeat in the West" is the lat- est of many books about the West- ern Front operations, It has this difference: it is written from the German angle. It is the story of the German collapse instead of the Allied victory.

Another Labor-Progressive ral- ly at Hamilton heard A. A. Mac- Leod, party leader in the Ontario Legislature, declare that Canada "occupies the position of junior partner in the United States' po- licy of what has come to be known as atomic diplomacy." There were no special ceremon- ies in the Maritimes, At Montreal police dispersed a crowd of about 100 who gathered outside a hall for a meeting called by the Lab- or-Progressive party and who protested when entry was refused. The manager sald the man who rented the hall had not turned up.

Returning home he resolved to help his own country. men obtain the same security. With a few associates in 1847 he organized the first Canadian life insurance com. pany--the Canada Life.
