This study was mentioned in the combines commission's 1957- 58 annual report to Justice Min- ister Fulton, However, no report has come forward from the study as yet and there has been no indication from justice officials as to when the investigation might be fin- ished. In Washington, the Senate anti- trust and monopoly subcominit- tee Monday heard disputed tes- timony that one U.S. drug firm received price markups as high as 7,000 per cent on some of its] products. The subcommittee also is seek-| ing to learn whether an interna- tional cartel exists in parts of the drug business. TORONTO (CP) -- Jules R. Gilbert, president of a Toronto drug supply firm, said Tuesday that drug markups in Canada are often greater than in the United States. Mr. Gilbert said the justice minister of Canada has the power to bring about a reduction in the cost of medicines by enforcing a section of the Combines Investi- gation Act. He said under section 30 the attorney-general is entitled to set Drug Prices Under Study tion and reduce the price dras- tically, Six drugs firms have sued Mr. Gilbert's Sompasics Gilbert Surgical Supply mpany Lim- ited and Jules R.

All crossroads and traffic lights will be eliminated, TORONTO (CP) -- A three- year - old boy and a small | brown dog went fshing Tues- day in Scarborough and it took a search party of 500 to bring them back. Randy Calvert, son of Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Calvert of the east Toronto municipality, left home about 11 a.m. along with a lit- tle dog believed to belong to one of the neighbors. His mother had dressed him | warmly and put him out to | play. | Several minutes later a neighbor called and said Randy had been there asking whether her children could come out to Small Boy Goes Fishing brush. He was sound asleep in a small hole in the bank of a stream one mile from his home. Wet, tired and scared, he woke up in the arms of Mr. Sykes and was taken to hos- pital by police cruiser. But he didn't ery. Searchers said he had ap- parently fallen in the creek. Doctors said his feet were slightly frostbitten and his tem- perature several degrees below normal. However, with a glass of hot milk inside him and a blanket around him, Randy was ready to tell his story to his sobbing Rainmakers seek to provide dams of the British Columbia Power Commission, the prov- ince's multi-million dollar public hydro utility. Neither commission officials nor the rainmakers themselves-- North American Weather Consul- tants of Santa Barbara, Calif. -- will make outright claims of suc- cess in sowing the clouds with silver iodide crystals. Company officials say the crys- tals, sent aloft from ground- based drum-like burners, act as nuclel around which raindrops form in the proper type of cloud formations. In winter they are said to act In the same way to bring down snow, increasing the snow pack which provides in- creased runoff into the power dams in the spring. BIG PROJECT The rainmakers -- they call it been at work in the commis- sion's huge Campbell River watershed, site of its biggest pro- jos for about five years. But ission and co v |officials will say only that there has been "some degree of suc- goss" and decline to go into de- tail. Their reluctance is apparently based on two factors -- accept- ance of any claims by a scepti- cal public and the possibility of being sued by tourist resort own- ers for making too much tain. A North American officials sald his company has faced such suits in the U.S. where the company claims success in a number of projects. The , company's contract with the power commission ends in 1960. Officials of the commission, more water for the power storage| "weather modifications" -- have! {worth more than $1,000,000 a |year. |HIGHER THAN NORMAL Power commission spokesmen |admit that precipitation in the |564-square-mile watershed "tar- | get" area has been higher than normal' when compared with runoffs in an outside "control" area not affected by the ¢loud- seeding. But they pose the question that since the rainmakers admit they need certain types of clouds to |start with, who's to say the rain |or snow wouldn't have fallen any- way? The cloud-sowing is being ear- ried out from 13 silver iodide cloud-seeding generators at scat- tered points ringing the mid-is- land "target" area. They are fired by propane gas and the warm updraft created by the fire carries the particles into the upper air currents and the clouds. The prevailing wind must be to- ward the "target" area when the {microscopic particles are re. leased at the rate of "a million billion per minute." In 1956 four big B.C. logging companies launched an emer- gency rainmaking project at a cost of $40,000 to bring moisture to parched Vancouver Island for- ests. Again no one would term the attempt a success or failure, but the rain did come. British Columbia Electric Com- pany, the province's big private power utility, has also tried rain- making to increase its power run. For Less At MODERN UPHOLSTERING 926%2 SIMCOE ST. N.
