The United States last week pro-
posed to .the world the Creation of
an International Atomic Develop-
ment Authority to handle atomic
energy and agreed to destroy its
'own store of atom bombs and cease
manufacturing them if an adequate
control. system is set up,
The 'United States made it crystal
clear that there must be no veto
powers in any part of the frame-
work it was proposing for the de-
-velopntent and peaceful use of
atomic energy,
It caped for renunciation of the
atom hemi, as an instrument of
warfare and for a world security
program "not composed merely of
pious thought but of enforceable
sanctions -and international law
with teeth in it'.

financier who played a leading role

Britain's Suppor. Expected
This world control of the atom
can be effective only if all countries
are willirt to abide by rules and
regulations which, not only open
factories within their borders to
international inspectioci, but also
v- the ultimate control of these
plants in the hands of a world-wide
atomic development commission.

unprecedented boldness, Mr. Bar-

Great Britain has accepted as a
"basis for consideration" by the
United Nations the American plan
for setting up penalty -backed inter-
national safeguards against atomic
aggression.
Canada last week was the first
United Nations' member to give
its formal support to the united

Million Tons
Of Western Coal
To Ease Shortage
E. J. Brunning, Canada's Coat
Controller, said the Government
hopes to have;a'rec t, of 1,000,000
tons of Western coal shipped to
Central Canada tp :ase the critical
fuel shortage facing Ontario and
Quebec in the coining winter.
Supplies from Alli:ta and Brit-
ish Columbia mins will be relied
upon, Mr. Brunning said, but
warned that even the unpreceden-
ted shipment could only relieve and
not cure a situation now beim;
further complicated by the inland
shipping strike.
The 1,000,000 tons will not affect
the recent order restricting deliv-
eries of coal to homes because "ave
were banking on this amount when
the order was prepared." .
There was not sufficient coal
available in Nova Scotia to make.
it a two-way shipment, Mr. ,lrun-
ning said.
The shortage in the Central Pro-
vinces this winter is estimated at
somewhere near 5,500,000 tons.
The influx from the western
mines last year was some 500,000
tons, many tinges the normal aver-
age, but this year 't will be limit-
ed only by rail facilities. The job
is expected to be one of t'•c great-
est Canadian railways have faced

SACK TIME ON THE MALL
Farsighted sailors brought their hammocks with them during vic-
tory celebration in London. Here the men sling them between a
tree and a lamp post in anticipation of a good night's rest, while
others sleep on the ground. Visitors from all parts of the world
flooded the city, causing room shortage.
Ey FRANK MANN HARk1S
("A Six fait Critic")
One feature we mildly enjoy in
connection with these champion-
ship fight broadcasts is listening
to the singing of the United State;
National Anthem just before tate
brawl begins. \Ve always remake
a little mental wager with outse'.1
as to whether or not the soloist
will manage to react. "tire Land
of the Free' in the concluding line
safely, or come to grief on that
high note :Melt has wrecked so
marry,
*
It is also rather interesting to
note how the chaste presence of
the microphone has slowed dowo
-or perhaps we should say, added
refinement to -the last-minute in-
structions to the gladiators. Old-
time referees used to Mart off with
something like, "Listen, you two
bunts, I want you to make dis a
real fight or else I'll turn you out
on your ears" and work up from
that to real eloquence; and, the
boys at the Press Table often got
quite a kick out of what they oven" -
heard along this ''ne. But nots',
realizing that all t',e world is
listening, referees sound almost as
important and dignified as a Sym-
phony announcer as they solemnly
instruct the boxers t.) "go to your
corners and come out fighting."
*
Well, the lads alt. ays obey at
least half that admonition; they
do go to their corner.. And pos-
sibly some of you ma, not recall
why that instruction to "come out
fighting" i always given. It date:
back to a time when boxers, aftee
the opening gong, were • in tete
habit of prancing to the center of
the ring and touching gloves in a
formal handshake. But one crafty
operator discovered that nothing in
the rules demanded any such pro
cedure; and so, when his opponent
advanced toward hint with mitts
extended in a gesture of politeness,
said operator would promptly plant
an overhand right on, the polite
one's unprotected jaw, often end-
ing the fight befor, it was well
started. And so cause the warning
to "protect yourself at all times"
and do your handshaking before
the gong, not after.
(, >K *
The rule that, following a knock-
down, the man still on his feet
must retire to a neutr11 corner is
also a comparative newcomer to
the boxing code. Before its adop•
Hon, all a boxer had to do. was
step back and give the recent-
room
ecentroom to -take his count. So shrewd
lads of the Jack Dempsey typo
would maneuver aroue:d so that,
when the •fatten warrior tottered TO
his feet, they would :, behind Trim
and in a Night- eligible position to
shack hits down again before the
cobwebs had cleared front his
noggin.
'1' 4: *
But somebody is always taking
the joy out of life; and so came
the ruling that the knocker -downer
must, ere the count began, retire
to a corner --but no particular one
of the four being' specified, So
what was more natural for a smart
fighter than that he should prompt.
ly duck to his own corner where,
during tate count, c: good hard-
working crew could easily give him
a shower, a pep -talk, a slug of
brandy and, if really necessary, a
shot in the arm, thus allowing lint
to go forth greatly refreshed and
ready to carry on the good work
to a successful finish. But some
folks are never satisfied, so there
carne the ..rneudinent that it must
he a "neutral" corner, where ilia
poor fellow has nothin,- to clo hut

house, and speculate as to whether
or not lie, pers• •tally, will have

his faithful frie Ads and advisers
get finished with their trusty chis
els.
Knock -down timers - officials
who assist referees in malting the
count --are also fairly •ecent addi•
tions to the fight picture. Their
inclusion was Made necessary by
the fact that old -tinge referees -al-
though most of them could count
up to Ten - had widely -varying
views as to just how long a stretch.
of time ten seconds actually is. fu
fact it was even hinted that some
of them allowed their sympathies
to interfere with their judgment --
in other words, that they would

Like the tune -hallowed tale of
Referee Grogan officiating at a
bout between Crusher Clancy and
The Terrible Swede. In the second.
round Clancy hit the deck and the
ensuing count went something lik'l
this: "ONE( (Clancy, will ye be
getting up off that floor and stand-
ing on yer two feet?) 'I'WOl
(Crusher, .", ye hear me now? The
idea of a fine Irish lad like you
laying there so lout) THREE'
(Clancy, think of the disgrace to
old Ireland and rise to yer feet
like a man.) FOUR! ('Listen to me
Crusher. Will you have it said
that an Irislunan let a Squarehca9

At the count of Five Clancy
Struggled to his feet, cut loose a
wild swing which felled his capnon-
ent. Promptly front the lips of
Referee Grogan came -"One -two -
three - seven - eight - trine - telt -
SWEDE-YE'RE OUTt"
d+ d,
So now we have the knock -down
timer -anti perhaps, all things con-
sidered, it's just as well. For with
some of thos, 'long -count' artists
like the aforesaid Grogan still in
action, we fear that .modern radio
advertising acme' would have
seen an opportunity 1110011 too good
to be overlooked. They'd be pun-
ting in "commercial announce-
ments" between each numeral of
the referee's leisurely count. Per-
haps, perish the thought, they'd
have even managed to interpolate
some of those singing commer-
cials"!
