Despite opposition, Pearson pushed a bill through Parliament, and construction went ahead.

"The illness is understood to be serious and to require special treatment." The newspaper said the cardinal had not becn in the best of health. The paper said no bulletin on his condition had been issued] from the hospital or the archbishop's house.

"I think that our countries can mutually gain for thcir benefit if you search for mutual understanding and co-operation in the field of peaceful use of atomic energy," he told press conference. BEST RABBI BOSTON AP—Richard Cardinal dishing told this story Thursday as Illustrative of the ecumenical spirit. "The other night I delivered a speech at the Statler-Hllton, when I came out lt was raining so I hailed a cab. The cab driver was Jewish. "When we arrived at my house I asked him what the fare was. "He said it was $2.15. I gave him $5 and told him to keep the change. "At that point he asked me: "Are you really the archbishop..' "I told him I thought I was and he said: "Well, I want you to know you're the best rabhl in Boston." LOT OF CItUST HALIFAX CP—Thieves who broke into a railway box car Tuesday night have a lot of crust and plenty of bulk. Missing from the car were 12 cases of pie crust mix and 11 cases of corn flakes. PREFERS DAYLIGHT WASHINGTON AP-Charlcs D. Everett, 20, told police who arrested him Tuesday he held up liquor stores during the daylight hours only. "I'm afraid to be put on the street at night with all that money," he said. The central Congolese government Thursday demanded thc recall within 24 hours of the British and Belgian consuls in Elisabethville as the United Nations announced the start of a new advance in its military operation in secessionist Katanga province. . . Katanga president Moise Tshombe proceeded an armored column of UN forces into Mo- kambo, an important communications centre 110 miles south- cast of the Katangan capital of Elisabethville, and othcr UN forces marched northwestward toward the last stronghold of Kolwezi. In Leopoldville, the Congolese foreign ministry said Foreign Minister Justin Bomboko called in the British and Belgian am- making urgent had until today to remove then- consuls from the strife-torn capital of Katanga. The British consul is Derek Dodson. Bomboko said the order against Belgian consul Frederick Vandewaal had becn issued Wednesday. Vandewal had not yet been accredited to his post so the Belgians wcre told he would not be acceptable. GIVE REASON FOR STAND A bulletin issued by the official Congolese news agency ACP said the decision was due to the political position adopted Katanganj by the two men, who have been 'acting as guarantors foi Tshombe since his return to Elisabethville from 10 days of voluntary exile. It was learned later in London representations t< government to allow its Elisabethville consul to remain in the Katanga capital. Tshombe preceded the UN column to the Katangan-Rhodesian border town of Mokambo, stopping 12 times en route to tell his Katangan forces not to •esist the UN troops following um. "11 was a picnic." said Colonel Worku, commander of the Ethiopian UN troops who trailed Tshombe. The UN took the town without a shot being fired. UN leaders in The Congo apparently rescinded the house- arrest order on Tshombe announced in New York Wednesday night after he promised the UN troops freedom of movement on the Mokambo road. Floods Hit Morocco SIDI SLI MANE, Morocco (AP)—Hundreds of farmers and villagers were stranded Thursday in one of the worst floods to hit Morocco in 40 years. The U.S. Air Force base here helped with rescue operations. An estimated 40,000 persons were routed from some 1,000 square miles of central Morocco, flooded by torrential rains that began six days ago. Authorities said more than 20 persons have died. As darkness halted a massive rescue operation, the author ities expressed fear the death tell would rise unless those still clinging to rooftops and perched on clumps of high ground could be saved quickly. King Hassan declared a national emergency. ILA Claims Support Of Other Unions NEW YORK (AP)-The International Longshoremen's Association (AFL-CIO) Thursday claimed the all-out support of 12 other waterfront unions in its 19-day strike of U.S. East and Gulf coast ports. Everyone agrees that on merit we are entitled to everything we have asked for," said Thomas Gleason, vice-president of the ILA. He met with leaders of seamen, tugboat men, Teamsters and deck officers as a prelude to renewed wage negotiations with the New York Shipping Association. Gleason said the unions voted to fight any anti- strike legislation that may be introduced in congress as a result of the multimillion dollar dock strike. To Hold Talks NEW DELHI (API-Mrs. Sin- mavo Bandaranaike, prime minister of Ceylon, arrived Thursday to discuss the Colombo conference proposals of six unaligned nations for _i settlement of the Indian:Rcd Chi nese border conflict. She was met at the airport by Prime: Minister Nehru. Cold Snap Continues In Europe By ROD CURRIE ! LONDON (CP) - The cold snap that bit into, Britain three weeks ago continued unabated Thursday and the weatherman warned that no relief is in sight. Most major roads throughout I the country were clear of snow,! although 70-mile-an-hour winds caused heavy drifting in the southwest and new falls reported in several areas. Bad weather also continued on the continent as more and ice was forecast in several I countries. In Norway, residents have been inundated with a non-stop lay snowfall and in the northern section of Karasjok| the temperature fell to 31 degrees below zero. In Haringbliet, south of Rotterdam, Dutch army engineers were standing by with explosives to blow up ice threatening a 1,500-foot bridge. One man died of exposure during a major snow storm m Sweden Wednesday night two others died of cold in Lille, France. WARNED OF BLACKOUTS Londoners meanwhile were warned to expect electricity blackouts during the peak evening periods, resulting from heavy demand caused by the cold and by a wildcat ban on overtime by workers in some of Britain's 233 power stations. , The cold spell has inspired headline writers to invent ncw! words and has left sports writers sitting on their hands as three busy weekend sports schedules were snowed out. This weekend also promised to be a bleak one for sports fans. Five soccer matches already have been postponed. The cold has also inflicted a hard blow on British agriculture. Shepherds and their dogs have been landed by helicopter to drive stranded and confuted sheep to shelter. The storms, at their worst, sent British railways spinning. Airports werc closed for days at a time. Farm supplies coming into London were snowed under. Milk and bread delivery men quit and went home and •he short supply of vegetables sent prices up. One of the new words to come out of thc storm was "frizle" (frozen drizzle), the invention of a London.evening paper. Said one shivering straphanger in a packed subway, obviously not amused, "freezlc would be more apt." The strike began Dec. 23 and involved 60.000 longshoremen from Maine to Texas. Gleason relayed rt-pwls that 16.000 seamen ot the National Maritime Union and 14,000 waterfront Teamsters also are out of work > due to the strike. Banks Denies SIU Blacklist Charge Bv ROBERT RICE OTTAWA (CP) - President Hal C. Banks of the Seafarers' International Union of Canada Thursday repeatedly denied that the SIU keeps a secret blacklist of seamen barred from sailing jobs. The burly, 54-year-old waterfront union chief stuck to his de- at the federal marine inquiry even when confronted with a 1,100-name list of sailors said to be "black-balled" from their jobs. The list was prepared by investigators for Mr. Justice T. G Norris from the SIU's own files. Charles Dubin, counsel for.the inquiry commission, waved the list before Mr. Banks and charged that it was a blacklist of seamen who had been illegally deprived of their jobs by the union—without a fair trial. Mr. Banks admitted that the SIU once maintained a "do-not- ship" blacklist, but insisted it was abolished in 1954 after the courts ruled it illegal. 'I put a great many person! on the DNS in 1949-50," he told the federal commission Investi- . ' g labor strife on the Great : Lakes. : never put anybody on the DNS since then." ~THE COUNTRY PAFSON "A man doesn't stay defeated because of something which happens lo him—but within Iff >\titi at

WASHINGTON (AP) -
mtmber of the British Parliament said Thursday Britain
plans to build four submarines
capable of firing Polaris missiles. He estimated their cost at
about $700,000,000.
Julian Critchley, a Conservative MP, said the cost will work

Britain would have had to spend
to mount the now-discarded
