Cases Going To London LONDON (CP) «-- Canada's con- nection with the judicial commit- tee of Britain's Privy Council is in the same situation as the song which had ended but whose melody lingered on. Canada cut off civil judicial appeals to the Privy Council in 1949, establishing that the Supreme Court of Canada henceforth would serve as the final appeal. The Privy Council however, still hears about eight or more Cana- dian appeals a year, under the decision that cases in process prior to January, 1949, could be taken to the Privy Council for appeal purposes, if necessary. | No one knows or will estimate | the number of Canadian cases still to be heard. Officials of the ad- ministrative part of the council court know officially how many robably will be heard this year. They can only guess how many are to come. So far this year, the privy council has disposed of five cases, granted leave to appeal in one case and is schdduled to try to fit two or three more appeals in, if possible. Hides At Wedding Feast TORONTO (CP)--Police , shoul- dered their way through a wedding party Saturday to arrest a man who drove 9% miles an hour through city streets and crashed into two parked cars.

They chased it at 90 miles an hour for five miles along a north- | south traffic artery, through a| dozen red lights and watched it) crash into two parked cars of a wedding party. Naylor jumped out and tried to lose himself among the guests, but officers caught him. He was charged with dangerous driving and theft from stores. Atom Gun For Ships LONDON (Reuters)--The News Chronicle says today British navy scientists are working on an atomic gun for warships. Great progress has been made with the difficult initial problems of mounting such a weapon aboard a ship, the paper says. The scientists are trying for a range greater than the 20 miles claimed for the atomic cannon tested recently by the United States Army, it said. Air Defence Is Stronger MONTREAL (CP)--Air force of- today began study of reports of Operation Tailwind, a mock war involving units of the RCAF and the United States Air Force. Air Vice-Marshal A. L. James, officer commanding air defence command at St. Hubert, Que., said "our defence is stronger than it was last year." He said: "Our techniques and methods of operation have been improved and we have more modern equipment." The two-day operation ended Sun- | day night and all phases of defence and attack were introduced. Both reserve and active units took part in the exercise. Fighter aircraft were sent into the fray from air fields in Eastern and Western Canada to. intercept the 'attacking' bombers. Anti-aircraft units and. the ground observers corps also played a major role in the defence. Curate Named HAMILTON (CP)--It was an- nounced this morning at the Niag- ara synod office that the Rev.

Have A Heart A False One British medical scientists have | developed an artifical heart for human beings. The British Medical Journal pub- lishes details of the heart built | from researches by doctors led by | {D. G. Melrose, assistant lecturer | in a postgraduate medical school here. A journal editorial says Melrose and his colleagues consider the artificial heart machine now might be applied to the treatment of certain forms of heart disease. It cautions that the step from experiments on animals, the ma- chine has been tested on 30 dogs, to humans is a big one. 'The circumstances justifying the trial {at the present time are few but | |the potentialities of the machine land still remains to produce an Imay be considerable. It is likely |extra-corporeal apparatus capable to be a valuable contribution to the advancement of cardiac sur- gery. In another article, Melrose out- lines the experiments carried out on the dogs, in which the natural blood circulation was assisted by shunting part of it from vein to artery through the machine. The experiments were made to | assess the values of the machine in resuscitation, in the treatment of a failing circulation, and to get information to be applied later to {the problem of complete artificial | maintenance of circulation in man. |. None of the dogs died as a di- |rect result of the experiments though four did not survive them {for other reasons. The survivors | suffered no ill effects. '""The challenging problem was {of maintaining temporarily the | entire circulation of the human body." Four Shot In Tragic Love Story COVINGTON, Ky. (AP)--Four persons are in a serious condition today following a love triangle shooting by a rejected suitor who fired hand-fashioned dum-dum bul- lets from two pistols.

Ross, a trucker; was wounded in the left shoulder, abadomen and groin. John Buckman, 22, a resident of the apartment building who went to Miss Hogden's aid when 'he heard her fall, was shot once in the back. He was placed under an oxygen tent. Kalker, who fired a pistol into his mouth when police closed in, was not expected to live.

Not only that, adds I. N. Mac- Kay, but Canada "soon should be in an excellent position to carry out its development." Writing in Professional Public Service, published monthly by the Professional Institute of the Public Service of Canada, Mr. MacKay says present-day reactors cost a lot of money but the price can be brought down with suitable develop- ment. The new reactor at Chalk River probably will cost $30,000,- "If definite requirements for atomic power could be developed in five years with a full-scale ef- fort, costs might be comparable to steam power. 'Taking various factors into con- sideration, it seems reasonable to assume that an atomic-powered steam generator capable -of produc- | ing 500,000 kilowatts of heat could | be designed and built a few years | from now for $20,000,000." Total capital cost for such a pro- Ject would mean the equivalent of $290 a kilowatt compared to $215 for hydro-electric stations in On- |tario and $160 for modern steam plants in the United States. 'Obviously, based on these fig- ures, no one: is going to build atorpic power stations if hydro power, with no fuel costs, is avail- able. However, the hydro-electric power commission of Ontario will ave nearly run out of useful hydro sites when the St. Lawrence power development is completed, at which time they expect the demand to just about equal the new supply. Their new steam stations, de- signed as peak load stations, are soon expected to carry a good deal of the base load, so at least com- petition with steam and not hydro power should be considered.' Mr. MacKay says it's reasonable to assume that in the years ahead more rich deposits of uranium will probably be found in Canada. If not, means will have to be found to work the lower-grade deposits to compete with the steadily rising costs of coal. Steam power plants require fuel of one kind or another. 'It should be borne in mind that the .demand for power is expected to exceed the possible surplus on this continent some time between 1975 and 2000, unless entirely new sources of power are developed." No Reds At Sweet Talks LONDON (Reuters)--An interna- tional conference called to stabilize world sugar prices today refused to admit representatives of Com- munist China and East Germany | to its deliberations. ha A Russian propdsal to admit | Communist China was voted down 15 to 5 after the United States argued that membership in the United Nations was a prerequisite for participation. | A Polish proposal to admit East Germany was turned down 23 votes to 3 on the same grounds. The United States also contended East Germany was 'adequately represented by the Russian dele- gation. Thirty-nine nations are here to work out a new commodity agree- ment. The conference is aimed primar- ily at stabilizing prices on the in- ternational market on beet sugar, cane sugar and molasses. It has been convened by the United Nations at the request of the International Sugar Council considers that a commodity agree- ment offers the best means of deal- ing with present world sugar mar- ket difficulties. S tory Behind Bitter Rice ROME '""mondine" today are bent in the back-breaking work 'of . the rice deep in water, broad-brimmed hats protecting their heads from the blazing sun. Until shapely Silvana Mangano played the leading role in the Italian film "Bitter Rice" a few that Italy was a big rice producer. In fact, Italy produces more rice than her people want to eat. This month the mondine, women work- ers who take their name from the Italian word "mondare" meaning "to clean," are sweating in the 500,000 acres of Italy's 26,000 rice- producing farmers. The crop this year, it is estimated, will total 900.000 tons. The mondine, whose ages range from 15 to more than 60, now are transplanting young rice shoots. The rice fields provide about 40 days work for the mondine, many of whom trudge each year to north- ern paddies from Calabria and other poverty - stricken areas in southern Italy.
