Some doubt was cast during prelimi- nary moves before the Ex- chequer Court last April that Mr. Fulton could be sued.

The Newfoundland govern-| ment contends that it had a right| to ask for additional police under| the circumstances and that the| federal government was obliged] to supply it. | The statement says that both| requests were refused by the fed-| eral government and that this constituted a breach of the agree-| ment.

Not only that, he likes what he sees. During those golden days you can hear the sheik's shriek from John O'Groats to Land's End. The brilliant days and nights did it. Britain had grown ac- customed to decades of soggy summers when it either rained every day or threatened to. Men forgot what the female figure looked like in daylight. Years of wet weather had kept the British female shrouded in rain - coats, or hidden beneath umbrellas, On the rare occasions when the sun did shine, it was so chilly that the girls seldom went outside their drafty homes in anything less than bulky tweeds. ' But all that went with this It caught the men off stride. Back last May when the per- fect weather began, they shook their heads and muttered: "We'll pay for this. June will be horrible." When June turned out to be better than May,. they grumb- "Just walt till July. We'll be ooded." But as July proved better than June, a young man was heard whistling at a shapely girl toddling down Piccadilly in -a thin cotton dress. The revolution had come. So many wolves appeared in Trafalgar Square one sapphire- like evening in August that it sounded like a hungry night on the Siberian Steppes. It was too much. A man wrote a letter to The Times, expressing surprise in "the transformation in our wo- manhood, both young and not so young." Another man joined the cor- respondence and said: "Never in history have the woman of this country turned out in such elegantly cut clothes." Still another penned the same thoughts and sense and logic of the British male asked: "Is it the sun?" Brother, it was and it is. The girls came out in chic hair styles, colorful cotton dresses with billowing skirts and the hemline hovering at the knees. y with the good | TORONTO (CP)--Official fore-[today.
