7 The Toronto Transit threatened to suspend its ferry service to Toronto Island today after commuters rushed aboard a tug, overloading it and forcing it to remain at dockside: TTC chairman William Russell said it was possible the commission would suspend the service if there were more incidents. Trouble came during morning rush hour when the steering cable broke on one of the tugs which provide winter ferry service. A second arrived an hour late in frigid weather with room for only 20 passengers before reaching the 90-person load limit. About persons came up the gangplank and 80 more went over the rail. When the captain asked them to disembark, he was faced with a good-natured mutiny.

Nobody left. Captain J. F. Lahey exchanged bright remarks with his topheavy passenger load and then blasted his whistle five times a distress signal. ly, reinforced by island police.

Another tug, attracted by the whistle, went to help but only 15 passengers went aboard because had a to make another stop before reaching shore. Finally the tug which broke down got back into service, ending the deadlock. Mr.

Russell declared: "We are definitely not going to stand for any more of this nonsense. We are operating the service at a loss of $200,000 a year now."

'Viscount' Changes For Canada Service Top Dollar Order London.

Jan. 7 (P Changes in the four -engined Viscount airliners bought for service in Canada have "helped immensely" In bringing Britain one of her. gest dollar orders, says The Aeroplane. a leading British aircraft magazine. Some 250 structural and operational modifications were made in the 22 Viscounts for Trans-Canada Air Lines, says the magazine.

These brought the aircraft into line with North American requirements and aided manufactorers (Vickers- Ltd.) in Armstrong the sale of 40 Viscounts. to Capital Airlines of Washington. later, These sales mark an "epoch for British civil aviation." says The Aeroplane. "We now are. for the first time, 'in' the North American continent with a full-sized passenger transport aircraft which has been sold on its merits." The most important changes in the Viscount were in the flight cabin.

These made it possible for the aircraft to be flown at any time by a single crew member. Missing Boy, 11, Returned Home; Grandma Had Him An 11-year-old boy, who. "disappeared" while deliverying groceries from an east end store Wednesday, was located at his grandmother's home yesterday. Det. Lt.

New Periodical On Hospital Work A French Roman Catholic hos- pital periodical. designed to keep modern hospital staffs up to date in all aspects of hospital work. has made its first appearance. It is "L'Hopital d'Aujourd'hui" (Today's Hospital) published monthly by the Quebec Hospitals Committee.

Jean Paul Martin is managing editor and the editorial board of 30 is elected for one year. Rev. Hector L. Bertrand, SI, president lot the committee is founder rector of the journal. to Allies Arms Pool Plan the National Assembly to ratify WEU, will discuss the arms pool it idea with Italian and West Gerleaders in Rome and BadenBaden next week in advance the arms pool conference.

He undoubtedly will urge Italian Premier Mario Scelba and West German Chancellor Konrad Adenauer to endorse the project. Officially, contents of the French memorandum still are secret, but the French sources disclosed enough of show that it repeats some of 'the features of the European Steel Coal Community (Schuman Plan), the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. and even of the ill -fated EDC itself. In this respect. as viewed from a French domestic political angle, it appears to be an effort by to win support from some advocates of European unification who still are bitter at his refusal to go all-out for the EDC.

The French informants say the supranational phase of the proposed arms pool plan would be preceded by a two-year transitional period in which the members would be free to make restricted agreements between themselves individually. This would open the tripartite economic co operation among France. West Germany and Italy, which French officials have been considering. After the transitional period. these sources say, the supranational element would be injected by basing pool decisions on two-thirds majority, thus ending any single-power veto and the rule of unanimity.

Supervising the whole operation would be a council of national ministers. The transitional period is intended to give industries of the various countries time to adapt themselves to a "community economy." It also would provide for standardization of arms smaller scale, and the establishment, as some Frenchmen have suggested, of joint aviation plants French, West German and Italian companies. In this field. French 'officials believe France might furnish capital and management, West Germany might provide technicians! and machinery and furnish motors, skilled labor and manpower in general. The French believe this could be dovetailed with joint development of latent African resources.

In its supranational phase. the pool would draft a production program, place orders and distribute the finished product.

Doctor Tells Society: Expensive Requires A doctor yesterday told members of a medical society to review their knowledge and see it drugs were not being prescribed when cheaper ones would do. And another doctor said that, it a doctor has to prescribe a drug which is expensive, he should offer an explanation as to its merits and in this way play his part in the education of the public.
