Swiss Eye Borders Weighing East, West By MICHAEL KING GENEVA (Reuters)--The Swiss are keenly aware how easily "the cold war" between East and West could turn "hot" and are carefully assessing the strength of both sides to know best how to defend them- selves should war come to Europe for a third time this century. Typical of this Swiss attitude was a lecture given to an audience from all parts of the country by Col. Karl Brunner, instructor in mili- tary science at the Swiss Redoral Institute, in which he analyzed th military strength of East and West and warned: 'Each side declares that is only arming for defensive , but history has shown increased armaments mean increased danger of war..." "From a military. point of view, the main difference between the Eastern and Western powers is that the former--constituting some- thing between a federation of states and a single federal state--form a geographical unit not separated by oceans, which enables them to con- centrate and centralize their arma- The "single "The = party system en- ables production to be accelerated without any danger of disputes with producers or employees." But, since: the countries of the West are neither a political nor a geographical unit and are separate, independent and sovereign states, "the process of integrating \them | Child is necessarily slow." The Swiss Position he put this way: "This country, as it has been for 150 years, is still in a flank position, and even though the boundary still lies to the east of our frontiers, present-day mechanization of for- eign armies makes it possible that fighting might develop in our im- mediate neighborhood." Switzerland now is taking ela- borate measures to reorganize her army, with emphasis on light brigades and anti-aircraft and anti- tank defences. In 10 years, more than 2,000,000,- € 000 Swiss francs ($466,664,800) have been spent on fortifying the frontiers and natural fortresses in the Alps. Quits Police Force To Spread Gospel TORONTO (CP)--After 25 years on the Toronto police force, in- spector Jesse Weller has resigned to Yo Jeep an appointment he made with the Lord 18 years ago and become a full-time preacher. Back in 1935, while pounding a lonely beat, he heard the call to preach the gospel. Soon he joined a religious group, worked among its young people, and since, from pulpits of various denominations, has delivered sermons he has written with such titles as "The Dope , Question" and "The Lost He travelling to Florida to join the evangelistic group of W.B, McKay.

It's a matter of economics. Despite bombs and austerity, there still are too many London clubs for the persons who can af- ford them. Amalgamations of old established clubs are not uncom- mon, Some have had to move to less dignified premises or areas. 'WAGES BIG FACTOR For all, it's a question of being businesslike while retaining as much as possible of the original aim of gracious living. Changing times have seen wages, more than anything else, add weight to the Ex-Niagara MLA, Lost To Liberals FORT ERIE (CP)--William G. Wilson, 72, for eight years Con- servative member of the Ontario Legislature for Niagara Falls rid- ing, died in hospital here Saturday from a heart attack. Mr. Wilson served during the Ferguson and Henry administra- tions. He was defeated by the sitting member, William Houck, when the Hepburn government came into power. A native of Ridgeway, he was first elected to Queen's Park in 1923 and' returned in elections of 1926 and 1929. He was one of the original directors of the Buffalo and Fort Erie Peace Bridge com- mission which built the structure in 1927. Shiny Bars In Clubs Jar London Blimps debit side of club operation al- though food, wines, fuel and most have been regarded as a rude in- trusion. Today bars are money makers. '""We have installed a bar--a' dig- | nified one," explained the secre-| tary of the Oriental Club in Lon- den's Hanover Square. "We are also one of the clubs now admitting women as associate members if they are widows of former members or wives or daughters of present members. FOLLOWS TREND The Oriental, social club founded in 1824 and boasting the Duke of Wellington as its first chairman, has followed the general trend of away, at least temporarily, with entry fees. Boosting membership is another stratagem. The Oriental has admitted 300 women to premises since the start of 1952. Membership then was 820 it's 1,500 today. e Savage Club, identified by members as the last of the honest to-goodness Bohenfian clubs in London, caters to musicians and artists and still bars women.

Exp It's wonderful to be alive, de- lorer MacMillan Gets Coveted Award WASHINGTON ~ The National Geographic Society's Hubbard Gold Medal, one of 'geography's most coveted awards, has been presented to famed Arctic explor- er Donald Baxter MacMillan for long and outstanding service in the far north. The specially designed medal given Commander MacMillan is only the 15th such award to be presented since the first was struck in honor of Admiral Robert E. Peary in 1906. The presentation was made by Dr. Gilbert Gros- venor, president of the National Geosraplic Society, in Constitution The new three and one-half inch medal was designed by the noted sculptor Laura Gardin Fraser. On one side is the seal of the Society and on the other an inscription to the Commander, surrounded by res in relief representing the s of mankind, the continents, the heavens, and many of distinct ls of the world. AID; PEARY The Hubbard Medal, given in memory of Gardiner Green Hub- bard, first president of the Society, has special significance for Com- mander MacMillan, as he aided Admiral Peary on the expedition that first reached the North Pole ony April 6, 1909. Other recipients include Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh and his wife, Anne Morrow Lindbergh, and ex- plorers Roald Amundsen, Robert A. Bartlett, Sir Ernest Shackleton and Rear Admiral . Richard E. Byrd, who as a Lieutenant Com- mander shared with Commander MacMillan the honors and hard- ships of the 1925 MacMillan Arc- tic Expedition. On the 1925 trip Admiral Byrd was in charge of the first success- ful overland airplane flights to be made in the Arctic, and Com- mander MacMillan was respons: ibl for the expedition as a whole. The Admiral shared the platform with the Commander when Mac- Millan was given the Hubbard Medal. ti FRIEND OF ESKIMOS | A year prior to the pioneering aviation expedition, Commander MacMillan placed a National Geo- graphic Society bronze tablet at Cape Sabine on Ellesmere Island to honor the memory of the men who died on the tragic Greely ex- pedition in the Arctic in 1883-84. Commander MacMillan, whose 78 years are beiled by his vigor and his plans for further explora- tion, has been sailing north for 45 years. He has probably seen man alive. A personal friend of many Eskimos, he is one of the world's greal authorities and spokesmen for these people of the far north. Commander MacMillan's fame ous white schooner, the Bowdoin, has nosed into countless unchart- ed fiords of Labrador and Green- land, been trapped in the dreaded Arctic ice pack, and been aground on unknown rcefs. Charts of the Arctic owe much of their accuracy from the Bowdoin. Known to the people of the north as "Captain Mac," the Com- mander earned his rank through service in both World Wars. In the first he served with naval aviation and in the second he was attached to the U.S. Hydrographic Office, whre his intimate knowl- edge of the icy waters into which global conflict forced an unpre- cedented number of fighting ships and aircraft was put to good use. Estimated value of Canada's mineral production reached a record of $1,278,000,000 in 1952. LAME SHOULDER ?

Once standard equipment in a cotton mill, the old spin- ning "mule" has long since gone by the board. Dominion Textile's' manufadturing equipment is now among the most modern in-the world. Machinery bought by our 7,239 shareholders (94.7%, of them Canadians) helps us to turn out top quality ls and provide jobs for the 12,500 Canadians working in our plants. But equipment improvements, such as replacing the mule, aren't everything. We have our troubles trying to compete with the products of other countries which pay lower wages. In Japan and India, for instance, wages run about 15 cents an hour, while we pay well over a dollar an hour, seven times as much. DOMINION TEXTILE COMPANY LIMITED what's happening today? There is one thing everyone, everywhere has in common, and that is the constant hunger for news... It is a hunger which must be satisfied every day--a hunger which is expressed in this one absorbing question . . . What's happening today? You must know what is happening in your own town. You must know what is happening in politics, sports and society. You must know what is happening in Ottawa, in Washington, in the capitals of Europe. You must know, be- cause today's news may bring you bankruptcy or prosperity, misery or happiness--even life or death. Canada's daily newspapers exist to meet this need of yours. They, and they only, give you all the news, with speed, authority, and in permanent visible form. But you are busy--you want more than news --you expect interpretation and selection. And in this, newspapers are supreme and unique. No other medium can clarify, sum up, and interpret the news in a daily record for all the world to see and judge. Newspaper advertising is therefore something more than ordinary advertising. It is part of the power generated by the news dynamo-- the power which enables you to knew, and therefore to decide and judge. And newspaper advertising, like the news it- self, is re-born daily, fresh, sparkling with the action of each day's events. . It reaches everyone who can be reached by all other forms of advertising combined. What- ever else they may read or hear or do, people will read the newspaper daily--and tomorrow. So it is not surprising that most advertisers harness their message to the news, and the newspapers deliver it daily to millions across Canada. This daily "news-vertising" vitally concerns you. It acquaints you with those innumerable every day products and services about which you must be informed if you want to live effi- ciently and happily.
