NEWFOUNDLAND, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 1956 S (Prica 5 cants) Charles Hutton & Sons Burns Briefs Bunch On Mideast Pearson Denies Egypt Rejection Canada -, By RpD CURRIE Canadian Press Staff Writer UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (C.P)-External Affairs Minister L. B. Pearson.said Monday night the con- tributon of a Canadian air transport squadron to the U.N. Middle East police force will not afftct the eventual sending of the main body of Canada's contribution which has been held up at Halifax, He said the main group of the 1,200-man force will move out aboard the aircraft carrier Magnificent when Maj.-Gen. E. L. M. Burns, commander of the U.N. force, asks for them. "I hope" Pearson said, "this statement will remove the impression that Canada has been turned down by Egypt". There is widespread speculation that the reason the Magnificent did not sail as scheduled during the week-end was that Egypt had objected to having Canadian infantry troops on Eyptian soil.

SET 11EC0RD STRAIGHT Ashok Mchta, loader of thc Praja Socialists, said Nehru's foreign policy had been confusion lately, "but now I am ha/py that Mr. Nehru has corrected the locus and set thc record straight." Mfhta bitterly attacked V. K Krishna Menon, India's UN dele- Sato, charging lhat hc did not represent cither thc people or lhe government of India. In his hard • hitting speech, Nehru said that "the gross and brutal exercise of armed might against weak* nalions" in Egypt and Hungary would fall. 1 "I have no doubt that sooner or j later the Hungarian people who 1 have demonstrated so vividly their ■ desire for freedom will triumph.'' i OPEN DOOR FOR SOVIET I As for Egypt, Nehru said that 1 Britain ancl France have gained nothing and -will lose much.

In Hungary, the observers could check on conflicting stories aboul deportations to Russia. MAJORITY WANTED CHANGE Nehru said it was not necessary to know all the details about Soviet action In Hungary to recognize what has happened. "The fact stands out that the great majority of thc people of Hunary wanted a change and Reuters News Agency reported, il had reliable information that j Egypt's President Nasser, in his 1 talks in Cairo with UN Secretary- j General Hag Hammarskjold, had * refused to admit Canadian force? | other than administrative and ■ medical units, [ Pearson has said that since* ( Egypt lias agreed to lhe force it 1 has n(> veto power to reject participation by any country, How-: ever, it Was believed most UN j officials were anxious noj tn send; In any troops to which Egypt was: opposed.

Thc administrative force requested by Burns would, fnr the most part, be selected from men; now In Halifa?; awaiting transfer' to Egypt. Pearson said Monday night at a press conference that the two new requests to Canada will, "havc no effect on the subsequent sending forward of the infantry." "The only change in plans," he said, "is as U timing.' BURNS TAKES DECISION Tlie decision as to whr-n the, main force would move would N*' made by Gen, Burns when he gels to Egypt and sets up his headquarters. The Canadian cabinet must pass an authorizing oi'dcr*in-coun- cil before any troops aro placid under UN command. That will be taken up at a cabinet meeting this morning. Pearson said the cabinet will consider Gen. Burns letter and. "I hope agree t0 dispatch en- j gineers. signal and medical corps! and ordnance personnel."

Tha number of men in the administrative units wiU total 250 to 300, he said. ' Referring to the reported Egyptian objection to Canadian participation, Pearson said, "no onc bul the sfcrctary-general has any say on the composition of the force." Asked if it -wasn't possible tot Egypt lo withdraw from th* agreement undcr which she accepted the force. Pearson said: "That Is possible but we hav* no reason to believe Egypt will do that."

"However, our position in maintaining an Independent policy would be adversely, if not disastrously, affected-by American subsidized shipping from the Great Lakes participating, In Canadian trade." "Until there has been an additional industrial defclopmenl, controlled by Canadian firms which are free to export overseas," he continued, "shipping on the St. Lawrence Seaway will be mainly dependent on cargcos from American ports, and the carriage of any substantial proportion :m American ships will reduce the opportunities to olher shipping." TITO ENEMY ARRESTED * (As a further indication that things are not well in.the Communist family, a report from Belgrade Monday sahlMilovan Djilas, a former Yugoslav vice-president, had been arrested on a charge of spreading hostile propaganda against Yugoslavia. Djllas, who split with Tito in 1954 by advocating much more freedom than Tito sanctioned, recently blamed the Hungarian uprising on Tito's policies of Independent communism. Tito has taken great pains to deny this.) The Pravda criticism appeared to indicate Soviet leaders have given 'up hope of bringing the Yugoslav marshal's IdcnlogVal thinking Into lino with thcir own. Now that the story of thc Pula speech lias been given the Soviet peoplo, at least In part, It is probable Tito will receive "cool treatment" from the Kremlin. U seemed possible Tito's strong speech resulted from irritation lhat the Soviet government failed to repudiate an anti-Tito, campaign conducted recently by some olher Communist nations. "REACTIONARY" CHARGE Pravda charged Tito's speech "contained certain statements which both in form and essence contradict tho principles oE pro- letarian internationalism and the* international solidarities of thc working class." It linked him with "reactionary propaganda" In explaining the causes of Stalinism. The Idea seeps through both ihe Yugoslav press and Tito's spoeeh it said, that "Yugoslavia's-road to socialism i5 the only true , ,. way for socialist development m almost all countries" whereas the Marxist - Leninist tenet Is that "each country can have its,own method, form and tempos." Pravda quoted Tito as blaming the ousted government of Imre Nagy, through Its failure to act more energetically,' for the Intervention ot Russian troops In Hungary's rebellion.' On the contrary, Titr> blamed Emoe Geroe, lhe Stalinist who lost his job as Hungary's Communist party boss early in the revolt. The prime minister added that aftcr the fighting stopped, there was an "extraordinary demonstration of passive resistance." "I was impressed by that more than hy the. fighting. This resistance by vast numbers of people seemed to be more significant or the wishes of the country than an armed revolt that might be organized by groups - here and there." ■In the debate.

O More Immigration Ambassador Says: "Soviet Will Nqver Recover NEW YORK (AP)-Gcorge Ken- nan, former U.S. ambassador to Russia, predicts 'the Soviet will never recover," 'from the recent revolts In Poland and Hungary. Kennan's Interpretation was reported by writer Joseph Alsop in the Saturday Evening Post. Ken- nan believes the uprisings resulted from three factors; 1, The eastern European peoples have always had a higher standard of living than tlie mass of tlw Russian people and they have also been much further advanced In constitutional liberties and-personal freedom. 2, The Soviet system Is deeply. wrong—wrong about human nature, wrong about how the world really works, wrong about thc importance of moral forces, wrong in Us whole outlook.

DECISIVE TURNING POINT Kennan predicted the two re- volts will "mark a perhaps decisive, historic turning point. Their consequences will e be profound, and. ihey will affect practically every portion of the world which is today subjected lo Soviet power or exposed to Soviet influences. Commenting on the use of force against the Hungarians, Kennan sala "There are undoubtedly some leaders in Moscow who long to use the power of the entire Red army, if need be, in order to crush this drive for independence everywhere. "But there are two excellent reasons why I think thcy ate unlikely lo do this. First, they cannot easily restore Stalinist repression in'lhc satellites without re- most insoluble for them. Kennan said he was not ruling out a resort to brute force by thc Kremlin. "Obviously," he said, "the So- viet leaders may be goaded into extreme measures by unwise Western action, maybe even by unwise Western gloating ... but on the whole, barring tragic accj; dents, I don't think extreme measures will be used by the Kremlin throughout the whole area. Hungary is, of course, still the great question mark . . ." Kennan said he believes "thi? whole sequence of events—really spells the end of what one might still call the third international I step has becn taken in line wi*h the government's policy of encouraging immigration at a time when Canada's economy is buoyant and expanding. He said th* immigrants will start arriving next spring. , Three - quarters of the immigrants will be recruited as track and gang workers for the two railways. Some 1,000 will be Italian farm workers and an undetermined number will be farm workers of Yugoslav origin.. The official said these special projects will help increase the flow of Immigrants in, 1957.
