Labor Party Leaders Gird For 'Rebel' War ~ London, May. 22--(AP) -- Labor party leaders, girding for a show- y with a Leftist rebel bloc at week's annual party confer. in. Margate, declared today the aim of British-American «understanding is to prevent war. "The Labor government," the rul- ing party's leadership said in a booklet published today, "does not propose to take sides in a lineup for 'the-next world war." tates. + 'The leadership's new. booklet, while critical of some actions of both Russia and the United States, rejected entirely the assertions of the "Rebel" bloc that the British- American alliance was aimed at Striking Feature "The really striking feature of » "world politics today is not that Rus- sla is frightened of America," the booklet said, "but that America, with undisputed control of half the earth and all the oceans, is fright- 'y ened of Russia, Te "For Russia, which foresaw a struggle with America, Britain was Tok o. gossile ally, for Britain could ler any circumstances adopt a policy which might lead to war against America.

E. Brown- lee, who also introduced the mother of the three talented children, Mrs. Vera Henderson Davie. The first number on the program was "Calm Repose" from Deidamia, by Handel, sung by Nelles Davie, basso. This was followed by "O Thou That Tellest" from The Messiah, sung by Francis Davie and "Hour and Arms" from Sanson, sung by the baritone of the family, Noble Davie. A chorale number, "Jesus, Joy of Man's Desiring," by Bach, was sung by the trio of, Francis, Noble and Nelles while Nelles then sang, "An_ nie Laurie" and the "Air du Tam- bour Major" from "The Drum Ma- jor's Song". "To the Children' and "Sequedille', from Carmen were sung by Francis, while "To an Even- ing Star' and "Invocation of Orph- eus" were rendered by Noble. Other delightful numbers in this very much appreciated concert were: 'Al Sweet Mystery of Life", "Indian Love Call", "Sweet Little Jesus Boy" "Imphm"™ a Scottish aria and "Blow Me Eyes' by Malotte. Those two semi modern 'Smoke Gets in Your Eyes" "Rain" were sung by Francis, who also gave a rendition of a Fren folk song, "If Papa Only Knew". Going back a little further in the pages of melody, Noble sang: "O Promise Me", "Largo al Factotum" from the Barber of Seville and "Gi- resseppe Da Barbar", an Italian song. "La si Darem la Mano" from Mozart's, Don Giovanni and "My Eyes" from 'The Chocolate Soldier" by Straus were then sung by Fran- cis and Nelles, as a lovely duet. 'The program neared an end with the trio singing: "Crawdad Song", a Negro spiritual: "Tally Ho!", by Leoni and "The Lord is My Shep- herd". The trio were however called back for an encore, so sang "Lindy Lue", closing the program with "God Save the King".

The travellers have Canadian passports which they showed to newspaper men in an attempt to show there was no foundation to charges they were Communist-led, charges which have resulted in questions being asked in the House of Commons about the exodus.

'Bluey' Eats Gal's Hat, And Cuts Up Generally By ERWIN FRICKE Canadian Press Staff Writer Vancouver, May 22--(CP)--Safe- ly past eager, outstretched aims of members of Vancouver Women's Press Club--who were rumored anx- ious to lure him to a "frolic" here-- Bluey baby kangaroo "delegate" to the Toronto Press Club By-Line Ball, today is winging his way to Toronto on the last lap of 'his 11,- 000-mile flight from Sydney Aus- tralia. / Six-weeks-old Bluey left here on a Trans-Canada Airlines plane last night still tingling from the recep- tion given him by reporters, photo- graphers, newsreel cameramen and hundreds of Vancouver citizens. After loping about beneath the plane in apparent dismay, he cud- dled up to the Press Club girls and even got around to slipping a short paw about the necks of one or two. He had been like that on the air- craft too, said one of the crew. Not only did he make the trip "better than some passengers," he became friendly enough with one of the wo- n to eat her hat. It wasn't on a bet. Bluey eats just about anything. A gift of the Sydney Journalists' Club Bluey will act as representa- tive of the Australian newspaper fen at the Toronto press ball, June After a brief fling at the ball, Bluey will retire from his high-fly- ing life to the seclusion of the To- ronto 200. Armour McMil- | lan; vice-president, Lorne Thomp- | Producers Not Blamed . For Red Movie Tinge Washington, May 22--(AP)--Re- presentative John McDowell (Rep.- Pa.) said today a House of Repre- sentatives un-American activities sub-committee has uncovered évi- dence that a "ring" is sneaking Communists from Mexico into the United States. McDowell said the sub-commit- tee also found "Communism deeply entrenched in Hollywood and the M movies." Just back from California, he told a reporter he returned by way of the Mexican border to check on "tips and leads" regarding the ring. "There is absolutely no question that there is such a ring," he said. He gave no details as to where Die The operates oy the border or how many people it getting across, y " : McDowell and chairman J, Par- nell Thomas (Rep.-N.J) were | members of a sub-committee which went to the coast for «successful ) . "Communism gotten into films. We are prepared to name the films and who got it in and how. . "It wes put over cleverly, The producers are not to blame. The wool was pulled over their eyes. Claim Illness, Not Drunken Judgment was reserved for one week on William Drayton, 292 Vimy Avenue, charged with being intoxi- cated in a public place, last May 2, by Magistrate F. S. Ebbs in Magis- trate's Courf this morning. The accused, represented by Manning F. Swartz, pleaded not guilty. Evidence was that on May 2, about 4:10 p.m. the accused was picked up on Bond Street West, by Constable L. 8. Young, who testi- fled that Drayton was sitting on a doorstep and was slumped over. "He couldn't stand and his breathe smelled of liquor," he said. Inspector W. Dawn testified that he saw the accused staggering south on 'Simcoe Street North to Bond Street, where he turned west. This evidence was corroborated by Detective Sergeant Herbert Flintoff, who said, "I don't think he knew he was being brought into the police station." The accused claimed he had had an epileptic seizure after having a glass of beer. Dr. C. W. Ferrier, who has treated the accused for the last four of five years for epileptic seizures, des- cribed this type of attack. "He has a type," he said, "where he does not have convulsions, but lapses of memory and will be in a dazed condition after the seizure." The accused has been taking sodium amatol, a depressant, to re- duce the number of attacks, he said, but at the same time, small doses of liquor act as a stimulant and this, he said, is something that we do not want. Chief of Police Owen D. Friend, said all symptoms showed the ac- cused was intoxicated, while the dcotor said it would be very un- usual for an intoxicated person to have a seizure. The reason for this, the doctor said, is that the person's mind would be in a quiet- ened state. Laughed Loudly - And Last Pawtucket, RI, May 22 (AP) -- Samuel Hyder, who was fined $4.60 for "revelling" two weeks ago when his bellowing laugh annoyed a police chief, had the last laugh The 57-year-old mill worker was exonerated of any wrong-doing by a district court judge who ordered his fine refunded. Wearing a broad grin throughout the proceedings, Hyder waited until the verdict was announced to let go with a rollicking belly laugh--one that chief Leonard Mills said was "funny" the first time but a nuis- ance after that when "there's noth- ing funny to laugh about." Floods Still Cause Grief In Ontario By The Canadian Press Flood conditions prevailed today in several Ontario counties follow- ing heavy rainfall the last few days which swelled to overflowing streams such as the Grand and Nith rivers in Waterloo county and Kettle Creek in the St. Thomas | district. ; Yesterday's rainfall of 1.85 inches | in the Kitchener area again sent | the Grand and Nith on the ramp. | age as their overflow of water ine undated low-lying sections of Wat- erloo county. Level of the Nith at New Hamburg, near Kitchener, | early today was said to be five feet | above normal. Farmers said top- | soil only recently seeded is being carried away. : 1 At St. Thomas, Kettle Creek rose three feet, flooding low areas around the city and causing worry § at the water works plants while some farm lands were inundated. Homedale-St. Thomas' new residen- tial sub-division--was transformed into a series of miniature lakes. Sandbags had to be placed around ° the new Timken Company plant to | | divert water pouring onto the pro- perty from a golf course nearby. INSURANCE PROTECTION N= WHO EVER KNOWS?
