Meanwhile, those who could prepare for the storm did so. Annapolis valley apple growers could only wait and hope the storm would not ruin the 000,000 crop still on the trees. The RCAF said 10 giant antisubmarine Argus aircraft from Greenwood, N.S., and SummerP.E.I., were flown to a U.S. Navy air base Patuxent River, Wednesday to wait out the storm.

Lt. Col. Gordon Grant, Nova Scotia Civil Defence co ordinator, said his organization can go into action on 30 minutes notice. SLOWING DOWN The United States weather bureau at Boston said at 10 a.m. EDT a the hurricane had slowed down and was giving indication of a slight weakening.

Elma Berlin, 33. UAW Contract Delayed DETROIT (AP) The United Auto Workers union, its threat of a country-wide strike against General Motors quashed, aimed today at a new approach to local problems holding up complete settlement of a new contract with GM. Walter P. Reuther, UAW president, said Wednesday night the union has "developed a new proach to expedite the ment of unresolved local issues. He scheduled a meeting today of the General Motors council, a union advisory board, to discuss the new approach.

Reuther declined to elaborate on the plan. Today's meeting followed hectic night which saw the council vote to accept GMUAW national agreement on the money package and national work rules. A few hours later, however, the council voted to ask the UAW international executive board for authority to strike GM in support of local contract demands. The international executive board, governing body of the UAW, met quickly. Less than two hours later Reuther announced that the board would not authorize a general strike against GM.

He said a general strike "cannot in good conscience be justified, therefore it will not be authorized." Obstruction Appeal Allowed EDMONTON (CP) The Alberta Appeal Court Wednesday quashed the conviction of an Edmonton news photographer on a charge of obstructing a police officer. David Maynard, son of former Alberta Attorney General Lucien Maynard, was found guilty in Edmonton police court last February following an incident at a construction site, where he was sent on an assignment for the Edmonton Journal. Maynard was fined $20 and costs by the lower court. The appellate court ruled that "considering all the circumstances, we do not feel the evidence justified a conviction." The court was told that Maynard was sent to photograph an area where a workman had fallen to his death about two hours earlier. As he was about to take a picture from a catwalk, the court was told, police sergeant 1 Keith Strate shouted: "No pictures." Maynard asked Sgt.

Strate what authority he had to make such an order and demanded his name. The policeman said he was in charge of the investigation and that it Maynard wanted his name he could obtain it from the chief constable. The court was told that Maynard was escorted from the area five times and finally was taken into custody and charged. Mr. Justice Horace Johnson said he felt the policeman had used "bad judgment" and Mr.

Justice Hugh John Macdonald said the officer's actions "lit the fuse that set off the fireworks." Carry-Over Of Wheat Declines OTTAWA (CP) -The world's four major exporters of wheat had supplies totalling 000 bushels at Aug. 1. The Dominion Bureau of Statistics reported today that this was five per cent lower than the carry -over at the end of the respective crop years at Aug. 1, 1960 when the total was 743,800,000 bushels. Supplies this year, with last year's figures in brackets: United States 1,965,700,000 bushels Canada 523,200,000 Argentina 23,300,000 and Australia 96,700,000 000).

The bureau said that when final tabulations are completed for the full crop year, it is expected world wheat exports will have reached an -time record of some 1,500,000,000 bushels. Canada was the largest seller in the world markets of wheat and flour. More than 95 per cent, or 264,000,000 bushels, of Canada's shipments were sold on normal commercial terms, while most of the United States shipments were made under government auspices.

SLIM ELECTED Wednesday, Tunisia's Mongi Slim, bachelor, was elected assembly president to succeed Ireland's Frederick Boland but the world organization still is without an executive officer to implement decisions. At a press conference, Slim said it is the duty of the assembly over which he now presides to provide for a successor to Hammarskjold "in conformity with the UN Asked if he would consider taking the post of interim secretary-general at a latter date, Slim said he knew of no formal proposal of that nature "submitted in As president, he added, he was in the hands of the General Assembly and the question was one for the assembly to decide, Before the assembly Wednesday, Canada spoke for Australia and New Zealand in paying tribute to the "inspiring world leadership" of the dead secre- tary-general. 'TERRIFIC BLOW' "His loss is a terrific blow to Canada, said External Affairs Minister Green. "We have worked very closely with him through the years. We have admired so much his dedication to duty, his impartiality and his goodwill for all the people of the world." Most of the tributes were warm and emotional, but there were exceptions.

Soviet Ambassador Valerian Zorin observed coldly that the assembly had been forced to begin its work in "a somewhat unusual manner" by expressing regrets over the secretary-general's death. The translation of his remarks, made in Russian, referred to the secretarygeneral as "Mr. Congo." But while the Soviet Union had made its views of Mr. Hammarskjold clear in the past, Mr. Zorin continued, it did not deprive him of the opportunity to approach the matter from humanistic point of view." The Soviet Union expressed its "sincerest condolences," but also regretted that "the struggle of the colonizers against the Congolese people had led to great sacrifices." It African countries "demanding an end to the colonizers and their agents in the name of their agents in the name of peace.

Poland offered a similar comment, but pledged itself to make the UN "a stronger, a better organized instrument of peace' as result of Mr. Hammarskjold's death. FOUL PLAY Delegate Ako Adjei of Ghana said flatly "there must have been foul play" involved. Congolese leader Patrice Lumumba had been murdered "in or near the same area they did it to Patrice Lumumba, and they have now done it to Mr. Hammarskjold." U.S.

Ambassador Adlal Stevenson expressed "profound sorrow" and suggested as The New York Times had a day before that Mr. Hammarskjold should be buried on the UN site beside the East River in New York. He also proposed the building of a "living memorial to advance the work for peace and international understanding, which was his life." While he spoke, however, UN officials were confirming detailed arrangements for Mr. Hammarskjold's burial in Sweden at the request of his family. Funeral Services Held At Sylvan For District Man Correspondent SYLVAN LAKE Funeral services were held recently from the Eventide Funeral Chapel for David Airth Jamieson.

Mr. Jamieson was born in Pembroke, Ontario in 1878 and came to the Red Deer district with his parents in 1898, settling with them on their farm east of Red Deer. He came to Sylvan Lake in 1917 where he joined his brother, Harvey in operating the Jamieson Hardware Store. Mr. Jamieson is survived by a brother, Harvey, of Alix.

Election Set For Jamaica KINGSTON, Jamaica, (CP)-The Jamaican government, stung by a referendum that favored withdrawal from the West Indies Federation, decided Wednesday to call a general election before May 31 next year, the date Britain set to give the fledgling union independence. The decision was taken at cabinet meeting headed by Premier Norman Manley, 68, who campaigned vigorously to keep Jamaica within the framework of the far-flung string of colonies. In Tuesday's referendum, the vote was 251,935 in favor of secession and 216,400 against. Jamaica, about twice the size of Prince Edward Island, is the federation's largest and richest member. It has a population of -some 1,700,000.

No indication was given of the date the general election would be held. But a spokesman said the cabinet of Manley's Peoples National Party government decided it should be before May 31 'so the electorate can decide what government it wants ander independence. The spokesman also said From Page Tariff which may be incorporated In new legislation to be placed before Congress early next year, there may be an administration offer to reduce or eliminate further demands for escape clauses and other loopholes in tariff bargains which allow the United States to withdraw concessions when imports reach such proportions they threaten to crush a domestic competitor. Instead, Congress might be asked to provide financial support for a threatened local producer to help make him more competitive or to rechannel his efforts into more profitable lines. For Canada the new ideas have advantages as well as disadvantages.

Canadian officials see in the proposals a liberal trade policy that may help boost American markets for Canadian exports. But Canada still favors product-by-product negotiations, especially on such items as aluminum and other minerals and metals as well as farm and forest products which represent the bulk of Canadian exports. CUTS FAVORED Canada would favor deep U.S. tariff cuts on these items rather than slimmer percentage reductions over the broad spectrum of U.S. imports.

American authorities say they are well acquainted with Canadian views. They believe the new U.S. program flowing out of the Reciprocal Trade Agreements Act, which comes up for renewal in 1962, would be sufficiently flexible to negotiate on specific products providing these negotiations would not upset the over-all percentage cut fixed for broad groups of products. But these authorities also hope they can convince Canada and other countries which favor product by product negotiations to switch to thinking in terms of reductions over whole groups of items. Canada is sensitive about reducing rates on manufactured goods which may be vulnerable to competition from larger countries producing for bigger markets.

W. AM 6-1084 delegation will be sent to tain next week to report on the referendum and perhaps seek to advance the date set for independence for Jamaica. Manley said there were three main reasons for the victory by the anti-federationists: An intense national spirit among Jamaicans. The island's remoteness from the rest of the members. Fears concerning taxation.

Sir Alexander Bustamante, 78, the premier's cousin, leader. of Jamaica's opposition Labor party and anti-federation champion, called for Mr. Manley's resignation.

U.S. POINTS Spokane Denver Los Angeles Las Vegas Phoenix El Paso Miami BONN (Reuters) -Chancellor Konrad Adenauer today asked for a meeting with the opposition Social Democrats, a Social Democrat leader said, as negotiations continued on the formation of a new German government.

No reason was given for the requested meeting, party chairman Erich Ollenhauer said. But the meeting request presumably was connected with the efforts of Adenauer's Christian Democrats to form a new government following Sunday's elections depriving them of their legislative majority. Three West German newspapers earlier today reported there had been contacts between the Christian Democrats and the Socialists on the possibilities of forming a coalition. However, a Social Democrat spokesman denied there had been such contacts. Adenauer had said previously there would be no coalition with the Social- ists.

MEETS PARTY LEADER In the continuing efforts to solve the crisis, West German President Heinrich Luebke today conferred with Heinrich Krone, leader of the Christian Democrats in the lower house. The elections Sunday faced the 85-year-old Adenauer with the most serious challenge to his position since he took power 12 years ago. The elections gave the Free Democrats 66 seats. The party now holds the legislative balance of power but is opposed to Adenauer's continuance in office. MAN QUAFFS ATOMIC DRINK TOKYO (Reuters), A geiger counter clicked vigorously today as it was brought near a Japanese atomic scientist who drank a "strontium cocktail" more than a month ago to test its effects on the body, Dr.

Toshio Oaki, 56, director of the hygiene physics department of the Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute, laced his coffee with five micromicrocuries of strontium-85. This is about 1-10th the maximum amount Japanese scientists calculate the human body can tolerate. Aoki said that more than 90 per cent of the strontium had been ejected from his body, most of it in the first two days after he drank the "cocktail" Aug. 16, but that some still remained in the bones of his shoulders, hips and spine.

Also aboard the plane were two Swedish soldiers accused of deserting from the UN forces in Katanga. Observers here forecast more bloody fighting between UN and Katanga troops if the United Nations continues to insist on upholding its decision to end Katanga' secession from The Congo central government at Leopoldville. WORD AWAITED Meanwhile, a tape recorder by the bedside of a man swathed in bandages may provide vital clues in the plane crash that killed UN Secretary -General Dag Hammarskjold near this Northern Rhodesian town.

The man in the bandages is Harry Julian, American security guard who was the sole survivor of the crash. The recorder is there to catch his every word. suffered third-degree burns and multiple injuries, including fractures. One of the doctors attending him said today it would be 10 days before Julian was out of danger. Then he will be in hospital for three months more.

So far he has said little, although investigators reported he told of hearing a series of explosions on the plane before the crash. The pro-government Ghanaian Times today accused Britain of responsibility for "the murder" of United Nations secretary-general. An editorial entitled Britain: The Murderer, said: "'We declare with gravest conviction that Hammarskjold was executed by Roy Welensky and that African traitor Moise Tshombe of Katanga. Sir Roy Welensky is prime minister of the Rhodesian Federation and Tshombe is premier of the Congo secessionist Katanga province. Russia Has 'Ultimate Weapon' K.

SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP)-Russia is reported to have a rocket capable of orbiting a 12-ton satellite and already is building a platform which Premier Khrushchev reported has called the "ultimate atomic warfare weapon." This report, unconfirmed by other sources, comes from KilS00 Haan, a former Korean underground worker during the Second World War who now is a naturalized U.S. citizen. Haan, who says his informatio comes from inside Communist territory, submitted to President Kennedy Sept. 9 information which said Khrushchev had advised Red Chinese leader Mao Tse tung of the powerful new rocket and that the space platform was being built.

Haan recalled a 1958 report from his sources which said Khrushchev told Mao that year that when the space platform becomes operational Russia would force the liquidation of U.S. military bases near Russia and China.
