In the two years that the islan has been a province of Canada there has been more activity develop natural resources than i more than a hundred years. Already a number of new Indus tries have been started and a•n ber are in process of developmen and expected to be in operatio within the next year. Newfound lenders are certain that the area. I well on its way to industrial po er. Since the earliest days of its discovery Newfoundland has had as its main industry fishing, es- pecially for cod. The fisheries have been operated on a small scale and have used methods com- mon for generations. Now the Canadian federal government's fisheries research organization has taken steps to help modernize the industry, find more uses for the by-products of the cod, and show the fishermen how to use modern boats and fishing equipment. From the forests of Newfound- land British newspapers have been obtaining newsprint, and the pulp and paper business has fn recent years become the island's main in- dustry, which last year accounted for about a tenth of total Canadian production. Now new wood industries are being started with use of hard- woods to produce birch veneers, flooring, plywood, and doors, . Tim- ber stands in Labrador on the Canadian mainland and part of Newfoundland's wooded area are to be developed to produce news- print, cellulose, fine papers and other products. For some years iron ore has been shipped in unrefined state to Canadian and British steel mills. Now there is talk of building a steel mill or other metallurgical industry on the island. Meanwhile, a trio of big min'ng companies are surveying copper, zinc, and pyrites deposits for possible devel- opment of new mines in central and coastal areas. To utilize other minerals on the island a cement plant is under construction on the west coast of the island, and gypsum deposits e are to be Utilized at a new plant y, being built to make wallboard, l- lath and plaeter. Next year it is an, hoped work will be started on a plant making hollow cement d bricks. , On the provincial government's to planning board for early develop, ment are a fur tannery, a fur dye- ing and processing plant, a leather _, factory, and a shoe faetory, To um power all these industrial develop - t menta surveys are now under way n to harness the many rivers and _ waterfalls of Newfoundland and s Labrador. ,R_ The United States still maintains air bases on Newfoundland and airfields in Labrador, obtained ear- ly in World War H when the island was a British colony. The mili- tary and crommercial trans-Atlan- tic services have•made both New- foundland ew foundland and Labrador important as air bases: Newfoundland with its Mg commercial base at Gander and its United States air bases along the coast; Labrador with its wartime -built Goose Bay Airport. on the grass and go inside and make another pot. Got so you couldn't see the grass for the cof- fee grounds. Once in a while Zeke would go over to the lake to get himself a mess of panfish. "Last time I went up he was• sit- ting in front of his shack, looking mighty unhappy. 'What's up?' I asked. " Can't go over to the lake to do any fishing. And just when I have the best haft in the world.' "'How come?' "'It's this way,' said Zeke. 'A while back a sack of corn meal went wormy, so I dumped it out here on top of the coffee grounds and thought nothing more about it—until last Wednesday.' "I was sitting here, that day when I saw a robin dive into. the coffee grounds. Well, that bird just pushed his head into the ground and started to dig down into the earth li �e ,a� gopher. Least- wise, that's the "a it',looked- Fin- ally there was nothzif left but his legs sticking'out. "Well, sir, 1 ran over and grab- bed those legs and started pull- ing. But it was all I could do to get that robin loose. And' when I did, 1 most keeled over. I'll tell you why, "The coffee grounds and the corn meal had fattened up the sas- siest bunch of night crawlers I ever did see. The robin had spot- ted one and came down to get it. But that worm just took hold around the robin's neck and pull- ed it right down into the earth. Suffocated it! "And every time I turn my back the same thing happens. So I have to sit here all day and shoo off the robins!"

The festivities had lasted all July 7 and 3, with music, dancing, torchlights, and fireworks com- bining to make a fantastic patch- work of Gallic gaiety During the day, military bands played Ihroughout the city, meet- ing toward evening on the enor- mous flat space before the historic Hotel des Invalides. Here, before stands containing notables from the French provinces, the mayors of foreign capitals who had come to do honor to the birthday, the President of the republic, and en- closures holding a mass of spec tators ranging from the typical "Titi Parisien" (Paris • version of a -Cockney) to alightly bewildered tourists, the bands launched into a program of music while dancers from many places gave a show of folk dances. The band of the Garde Re- pubiicaine, in dress uniform, mounted on glossy horses, was followed by the green -kilted Roy- al Highlanders, the soberer khaki and white pipe clay of a. band from the American occupation force in Germany, the French Air Force band in summer kit, and an im- maculately dressed contingent from a North African regiment, clad in red and pale blue, with white turbans, solemnly led hyo their traditional mascot, a goat.. The Russian ambassador seemed ' specially interested in the latter as he chatted and inughter amiably with other visitors. As for the date, historians may quarrel for another 2,000) years to come as to when exactly Parisi was founded.

In any case, telegrams from throughout the world flowed in during the day, including one lrom President Truman to Piers de Gaulle, president of the City. Council. "To the City of Lighton its 2,000th birthday," ran the President's message, "I express the profound appreciation of free men for the contribution Paris has made throughout its long life to knowledge, to art, and to the virile defence of the heritage of the Christian world." Similar sentiments were ex- pressed by the mayor of Moscow, M. A. Yasnov, in a speech made at a banquet offered by the muni- cipality of Paris, Mr. Yasnov, seat- ed with Pierre de Gaulle and a representative of the mayor of Vatican City, spoke of the tradi- tion of "freedom which both France and the Parisians hold, a tradition for which they have of- ten fought courageously." °Beside the speeches and compli- ments, Paris received a large num- her of presents, ranging from a pair of elephant tusks from Braz- zaville, French Equatorial Africa, and a fine silver vase from Stock- holm, to a keg of herrings, a sym- bol for the shipment of Dutch her- ring for the poor of Paris, brought by two charming Dutch girls. The presents from Moscow in- cluded an enormous coffer with a painting of the Kremlin, a porce- lain vase, and engravings.
