Hitch-Hiking Crew Sailed Ketch Home VANCOUVER (CP) -- A globe- trotting Vancouver adventurer-- who sailed a 45-foot ketch from Norway to Vancouver--has lost the wanderlust. Michael Fitz-James, 28, has de- cided to settle down in his home town, sell his ship, and get a job-- shoreside, but with a tang of the | sea about it. He went to sea four years ago. Then, in Norway, he bought the ketch Maaken to sail her back home. The Maaken is an oak-hulled ves- | sel, built in 1910 as a life-saving | patrol boat. When Fitz - James found her in Norway, she was practically a derelict, but with the | help of three other Vancouver men, whom he met in London, | she was put in shape for the long | voyage which ended here July 11. | There was little money to spare, | but generous Norwegians showed | great interest in th: voyage and | when she put out into the North | Sea, the Maaken was completely re-rigged and ready for the sage. Members of Fitz-James' crew varied throughout the voyage as various persons made on a leg or two of the trip. Toughest passage was from Lis- bon, Portugal to Las Palmas in the Canary Islands where the little ketch ran into head-on gales and was hove-to for several days in | huge seas. | Passage from Las Palmas to | Curacao took five days, and Cura |cao to Panama another six. The long haul up the west coast to San Francisco took 80 days against the prevailing winds and currents. . A faulty bilge pump and. broken fuel line, repaired by the U.S. Coast Guard, delayed Fitz-James at San Francisco. He exchanged an old compass for a new bilge pump. Twenty-one more days took him to Victoria, where he put the Meaken into "spit-and-polish"' shape before sailing into home port. Se De Gaspe r1 Has 100 Years Old And Stands In Cour! Dock LIVERPOOL (AP) -- Elizabeth Stringer celebrated her 100th birth- day Friday in the dock at magis- trate's court on vagrancy charges. She was found asleep on a step by a police officer who said she could not give a satisfactory ac- count of herself. "I won't go," the constable quoted the centenarian as saying when he informed her he would have to arrest her if she would not go to an aged home. When she came into court she announced: 'Believe it or not, I am 100 today." She said she was an "old artiste of the music halls." When told to go to the old folks home she said '"'get a gun and shoot me." But, later, after con- sultation with two women proba- {tion officers she yielded and said she would go.

The 72-year-old premier, who has | headed seven post-war govern- | ments, failed to get a vote of con- | fidence for his one-part govern- ment from Parliament early this week. | The spokesman gave no reason | for De Gasperi's decision. It was | taken to mean, however, that the | premier believed his withdrawal | would lead to an understanding be- | party and the Monarchists. De Gasperi's outspoken opposi- | tion to coalition with the Monarch- ists ruled out all possibility of Monarchist support for him. Last chance of establishing a centre coalition on the lines which governed Italy for the last five years vanished Friday night when the rightwing Socialists refused to join it. De Gasperi had sought restoration of his centre coalition after his 10-day-old minority cab- inet collapsed. Drew Promises Cuts In Taxes On A WINDSOR, Ont. (CP) -- George Drew says a Progressive Conser- vative government would tackle the problem of how to cut taxes on automobiles. Addressing about 1,000 persons Friday night in this automobile- producing city, the Progressive Conservative leader estimated that taxes make up some 40 per cent of the cost of cars in Canada. axes loaded on the cost of pro- duction had added to the cost of production in many ways. | "This tax burden on necessary | transportation is something which must be tackled right away." | utos It was not possible, without a thorough study of the situation, to say how much taxes on cars could be reduced. "But, recognizing that this is imposing an unfair burden on our wage earners, therg will be an immediate and thofough inquiry into the whole question so that taxes can be reduced. This will not only ease the burden on the in- dividual purchaser but will help to reduce the cost of production in other fields where the price of automobiles enters into the cost of these other products."

UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE 3 BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT By GORDON MacKINNON Canadian Press Staff Writer A month-long calm on North American stock markets was broken late this week. Prices moved upward briskly. Western oils sparked the rally in der the leadership of rails and in- dustrials. Montreal mrarkets re- sponded to buying pressure in the indpstrials section, although the rally developed less steam than at New York or Toronto. The market ignored the fact that the last week in July usually marks the low point in the sum- mer lull. Too, market observers had expected a downturn as the country began to adjust itself to the idea of a truce in Korea. In Toronto, western oils Thurs- day made their best rise of the year following indications from the Alberta conservation board that ex- port of natural gas to Eastern Canada was probable. Buying spread to other sections of the market, selected industrials and base metals enjoying good support. . As background for the advance in western oils, brokers said many issues had reached attractive lev- els after a month of declining prices. Truce Hasn't Hurt Markets During this time amalgamatio: among many junior oil companies had put them in a stronger fi- nancial position. Toronto financial editors had been cautiously pre- | dicting the upturn for some e, mostly on the strength of this fac- r. Toronto.

From Friday to Friday, the Toronto stock exchange's indexes showed industrials up 1.80 at 310.27, golds down .61 at 76.04, base met- als down .91 at 153.34 and west- ern oils up 1.07 at 105.61. The Associated Press average of {60 stocks traded on New York ex- i changes advanced $1.30 to $108.80-- the best gain in six weeks.

At Wallaceburg, Ont., he said that if he b prime minist ihe would appoint Canada's first woman federal cabinet minister. | CCF leader M. J. Coldwell, still campaigning in British Columbia, said at Penticton that the Liberal government not only had failed to . help in the .development of co- operatives but also had obstructed consumer co-ops. It had refused to recognize that they gave their members non-profit service and had taxed them as if they were profit-making companies. "This is perhaps understandable in view of the fact that the Liberal party, like the Conservatives, has always catered to the large and vested interests. As long as either of these parties controls the gov- ernment the development of co- operatives will be retarded." At Moosomin, Sask., CCF pre- mier T. C.
