Te Lead Expedition To Australian By JAMES TONKIN PERTH, Western Australia (Reuters)--Adventure and the hope of solving a century-old mystery have lured William Grayden, young Australian member of Par- liament, to lead an expedition into the wild uninhabited regions of Western Australia. His expedition, comprising two companions, three aborigine port- ers and two well-laden jeeps with trailers, may bring back gold coins minted in England and left in the West Australia wilderness by Lud- wig Leichhardt, German explorer, who disappeared while trying to cross Australia's dead heart in 1849. First objective of the expedition is the Warburton and Rawlinson range country where natives have reported the presence of an iron box and the remains of wagon wheels. If they meet with no success there, the searchers will press up toward the border of the northern territory. : Ludwig Leichhardt came to Aus- tralia in" 1841 from Germany to continue his geological and botan- ical research. After preliminary exploration work, he conceived the idea of crossing the continent from east to west. His first attempt began in December 1846 but by the fol- lowing July he was back in Queens- land, ill and half starved. Wilds Two years later, Leichhardt or- ganized another expedition and set out from the Darling Downs, Queensland, with a party of six white men, two natives and a large number of horses, mules, bul- locks and goats. He intended to cross the continent to the Swan river, in Western Australia. The last letter received from him was dated April 3, 1848. The fate of Leichhardt and his com- panions after that is unknown. Leichhardt's expedition carried 200 gold sovereigns. In addition to the chest and remains of wagon wheels the natives -- who have never seen coins--say that round pieces. of metal are scattered. in the Laverton area. At Laverton, a remote gold min- ing centre, there is confidence that the expedition will find Leich- hardt's last camp. But others who- also are familiar with the country say they doubt that Leichhardt ever got as far] west as Western Australia. Traces of him are more likely to be found, they say, in the Simpson desert, in the northern territory. Even if he does not solve the Leichhardt mystery, Grayden at least will collect specimens of frogs and trapdoor spiders for Perth University's biology depart- ment and take motion pictures showing the life of native tribes- men in the area. U.S. Power Flows Into Ontario In Exchange TORONTO (CP)--Cables were ystrung Monday between the De troit Edison Company Delray power plant and the Ontario hydro Keith generating station in Wind- sor in preparation for what is be- lieved to be the largest interna- tional power exchange in the world. Ontario hydro chairman Robert H. Saunders said Monday night he hopes power will be flowing into Ontario within a few days. The De- troit company has received per- mission from the federal power commission for the exchange. Mr. Saunders also said that be- cause water storage on the Ottawa river has shown no improvement hydro has called back into regular service two package unit steam plants at Toronto and Thorold. He said he hoped the exchange with the Michigan system would end the province's present power supply problem and provide the necessary protection for water storage. The cables across the Detroit river were slung Monday from twin 302-foot towers. Coast Guard boats halted all river traffic while the cables were hoisted 183 feet above the water. A second system of cables will be strung between Marysville, Mich. and Sarria. Each system will have a capacity of 150,000 kilowatts. In the first weeks of the exchange, Mr. Saunders estimated between 16,000 and 20,000 kilowatts will be coming into Ontario. Fear Tito May Use Force In Trieste ROME (AP)--Premier Giuseppe Pella called his defence minister and army chief of staff into urgent conference Saturday as a result of open Italian alarm that Yugo- slavia's President Tito may try to settle the hot Trieste issue by force. . The move came as the govern- ment officially warned Yugoslavia and the Atlantic pact countries against any Yugoslav move to an- nex permanently the Trieste zone she now occupies. Pella conferred for almost two hours with Defence Minister Emilio Paviani and Gen. Efisio Marras. Immediately afterward he called the U. S., British and French ambassadors into conference, one after anotheg. He also sent a warn- ng note to "Belgrade. he concern over Yugoslavia"s intentions developed here after news reports from Belgrade were interpreted as threatening annex- ation of the Yugoslav-occupied zone in the disputed territory. Yugopress, the semi-official Yu- goslav news agency, said Friday night that Tito's government was seriously reconsidering its policy on Trieste. It declared he would outline the new attitude in a major speech Sept. 6. Claims Seamen Deserve No Increases In Pay MONTREAL' (CP)--Great Lakes seamen deserve no pay increase aside from that gained by a 40- hour work week, Capt. R. Scott Misener, president and general manager of Colonal Steamships Limited, said in a statement here during the week-end. He said the reduction from 48 to 40 hours a week would mean as much as a l4.4-per-cent wage in- crease to all unlicensed seamen. Coloniel Steamships, Canada Steamships Lines, N. M. Paterson and Sons and Upper Lakes and St. Lawrence Transportation Com- pany face the threat of a strike of crew members, members of the Seafarers International Union (AFL-TLC) , "Capt. Misener said the four com- es would accept a conciliation d report but only on condition was also accepted by thé union. Said this attitude was bein #0 board findings would be- come an agreement and not the basis for further demands by the union, The conciliation board majority reports proposed establishment of the 40-hour week within a year, but with regular pay for Saturday and Sunday work. The SIU has asked for overtime for Saturday and Sunday work. Meanwhile, seamen are to start casting their ballots today in a strike vote called by the union. Re- sults will probably be known by the week's end.
