Modest but steady annual gams in cigar consumption are an indication of the increasing acceptability of cigars by young men, according to Eugene L. Raymond, president ef the Cigar Institute of America. Ravmond reported that cigar consumption in 1957 Wds 6.113.-OOu 000 topping 1956 figures by well over two per cent.

May Use TV To Curb Suicides SAN FRANCISCO. The famous Golden Gate Bridge soon may be equipped with a closed circuit TV circuit aimed at catching persons with suicidal intent before they can leap. The bridge's board of directors is considering installing the TV so that a patrolman at the gates of the bridge could watch the entire span from end to end without leaving his pct.

The huge bridge over the entrance to San Francisco Bay has been the jumping off point for about 175 suicide victims since its construction 21 years ago. GRATEFUL GIFT OSAKA, Japan (AP) Miss Helen Keller is to receive a life-size bronze bust of herself as a gift from the blind, deaf and dumb of Japan for her 78th birthday June 21 The bust was cast by Yoshizumi Yokoe, adviser of the Japan art academy. suspicion on any agreement with the Russians. And Dulles carries more influence with the president than any ether member of the hite House hierarchy. The upshot of a long behind-the-scenes struggle over disarm ament policy was Stassen's resignation as presidential adviser three weeks ago, ostensibly to seek the Pennsylvania governor' ship.

Since then, Stassen has written two copyrighted newspaper ar tides to express publicly his view that a temporary halt to nuclear bomb tests can be achieved safely and has appeared before a congressional committee to de tail his proposals for a first-step agreement. There are few clues as to the reasons Elsenhowers reported decision to review disarm ament policy but he and his administration are known to be under great pressure both at home and from abroad to do something to break the disarmament deadlock. Senator Hubert Humphrey, a leading Democrat from Minnesota, urged tfte administration last month to open piece-bypiece negotiations with the Russians and UN Secretary-General Dag Hammarskjold also called upon the West to break up its disarmament package. An A-bomb test ban was one of the chief issues posed by the Democrats in the 1956 presiden tial election. If the Eisenhower administration could achieve such an agreement this year, it would provide a good political talking point for the Republican party in the off-year congressional elections this fall.

By GEORGE KITCHEN Canadian Press Staff Writer WASHINGTON (CP) Pres- ident Eisenhower appears to be wavering on the disarmament issue, Late in February he rejected with a firm Nc" a suggestion by Harold E. Stassen, his foimer disarmament aide, tnat the United States go along with Russia on a two-year ban on A-bomb tests without insisting on a companion prohibition on nuclear production. Now, however, he is authiTita-tively reported to be planning a review of S. disarmament policy that may reshape it along lines frequently advocated by Stassen during his nearly three years as a White House aide and chief U.S. disarmament negotiator.

If this happens, it will indicate that Stassen, now a candidate for the governorship of Pennsylvania, has been 'able in a few short weeks as a private citizen to do mere to further the disarmament cause than he ever was able to do as a piesidential adviser. Stassen holds the view that there is reasonable hope of reaching a small first-step agreement with the Russians if the Eisenhower administration will drop its requirement for a ban on the manufacture of nuclear weapons. His theory is that such a first-step agreement, while it would not provide immediate radical disarmament, would bring about a relaxation of tension and reduction of war risk without appreciably altering the balance of power between the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. But Stassen never was able to persuade State Secretary John Foster Dulles, who outranked Stassen and who looks with high 3 FIGHT CANCER i By STAN McCABF Canadian Preia Staff Writer VUNMPLC CP) fifteen-, year ofd Hobby Fischer, now United States chess champion, may be Amcr.ca's answer to, Russian chess supremacy, says a former Canadian champ.

on who himself was a boy wonder Abe Yanofsky, five times Canadian champion or co-champion. North American champion in 1942 and British champion in 1053, said that in five yars the Brooklyn prodigy will probably be in the world championship contender class. he is not the first child prodigy but he is the first who hds ever gone so far at such an age, did the 32 year old Winnipeg lawyer in an interview, COMPARhD WITH RUSSIAN Me compared Fischer to Mikhail Tal, youngest player ever to reach the Russian championship which he won in 1956 at age 19. Tal's attainment compared with that of the younger American, since it is harder to win the Russian title than the American. It is quite possible that in a couple of years Fischer will become a grand master, he said.

However, Yanofsky said he doubts Fischer will reach the world championship class in the next round of international competition. Fischer now rdnks as an international master not a grand master as a result of his victories in the U.S. The four-year cycle of international events slatted last year with qualifications in the various international zones. The inter-zone finals are being held this year, at Potoroz, Yugoslavia, Aug. 15 to Sept.

15. There the top five qualify for the Candidates tournament in 1959, and the winner then is entitled to challenge the world champion in I960. Tal, who won the Russian title again this year, will likely play in Yugoslavia; Russia may have at least six players in the event. Fischer was given a round-trip plane ticket to Yugoslavia by a U.S. television show.

The other U.S, eligible, 46-year-old grdnd master Samuel Reshevsky, ta not expected to make the trip. IN BIG TIME AT 15 Yanofsky himself was 15 when he entered the international big time in 1939 in a tournament at Buenos Aires. College and navy service during the Second World War intervened before he won an international masters rating in 1946 at a tourney in Holland. A i Dntrast between Fischer and Yanofsky, the chess prodigy of a few years back, is that the American boy avidly studies yvoiks on chess while Yanofsky says he didnt. Just after defeating Bot-vmnik in 1946 Yanofsky said: never really got down to any serious study of chess.

MODERN STYLE BELGRADE (Reuters) Tour ists vacationing in Yugoslavia THE DIESEL FIREMAN DISPUTE ON CANADIAN PACIFIC Slum Program Brings Battle In Vi ancouver VANCOUVER (CP) Vancouver's 20-year slum clearance and rc-development plant has become a dog fight between prop erty owners and city planners. Point of contention is whether property should be rezoned now into line with the ultimate plan, or when the plan is put into, piac tice.

Owners claim rezontn'g will freeze their property years be fore it is needed for development Planners say the freeze is essential to keep down the eventual cost of re-development. City council is divided on the issue A public hearing will be held April 24 to determine whether a pilot area will be rezoned at once. LARGE PLAN A huge area is to be developed in the next 20 years, jointly by the city, provincial and federal government. It extends from ihe arbors edge, out into the citys cast end, south to 33rd Avenue and west into the downtown sec tion. In December, ratepayers voted 000, 000 as the city's share of the first five-year program the pilot pioject.

This first area now is zoned as light industrial. In rezoning, much of it would become residential, to accommodate those displaced by the slum clearance, Heads Aid TWO AGO, in April 1956 the Firemens Union demanded wage increases and other benefits involving substantial increased AT THE SAME TIME Canadian Pacific proposed that, as firemen were not necessary, they should no longer be carried on diesel locomotives in freight and yard service. CANADIAN PACIFIC also proposed dropping both arbitrary wage payments for which no service was rendered and differential wage rates in mountain territory. IN DECEMBER 1956 a Federal Board of Conciliation recommended substantial wage increases and other benefits. At the same time, if found that firemen were not required on diesel locomotives in freight and yard service and made provision for protection of their employment.

It also found that payment of arbitrages and mountain differential should be modified. CANADIAN PACIFIC accepted the Conciliation Board's report. THE FIREMENS UNION rejected the report and called a strike on January 2, 1957. THE STRIKE WAS ENDED on January 11, 1957 on the following basis: 1. Canadian Pacific agreed to pay the substantial wage increases retroactive to April 1 of the previous year and other benefits recommended by the Conciliation Board.

2. The Union and Canadian Pacific agreed to refer the DIESEL ISSUE as well as payment of arbitrages and mountain differential to a ROYAL COMMISSION. 3. The Union and Canadian Pacific agreed to negotiate these issues in the light of and immediately following the publication of the ROYAL COMMISSION'S Report. THE KELLOCK ROYAL COMMISSION of three senior judges devoted ten months to hearing 119 witnesses and, at the request of the Firemens Union, made on-the-ground investigations across Canada and also made observations on four major European railway systems.

It was the most extensive and thorough investigation in the history of labour relations in Canada. IN ITS UNANIMOUS REPORT published February 4, 1958 the ROYAL COMMISSION found that: Firemen ore not required on diesel locomotives in freight and yard service on Canadian Pacific either for safety or any other reason. 2. The proposal of Canadian Pacific for protecting firemen from loss of employment and seniority is fair and generous. 3.

Arbitraries have become unrealistic and should be dropped and payment made on the basis of service rendered. 4. Mountain differential payments should be dropped and replaced by valley differential. CANADIAN PACIFIC accepted the report of the KELLOCK ROYAL COMMISSION as it had undertaken to do when the Commission was appointed. THE UNION rejected the report, stating that nothing in if was acceptable to them.

They did so knowing that not one fireman would suffer loss of railway employment who was hired before the proposal to discontinue firemen on freight and yard diesels was made in April, 1956. All across Canada there are less than 100 firemen hired after that date and now working who face possible lay-off. ALL EFFORTS of Canadian Pacific to settle the dispute through negotiations with the Firemen's Union have failed. FOR TWO YEARS firemen have enjoyed substantia! wage increases. During these two years action on the diesel issue has been postponed while the Union had every contention it could advance investigated by two enquiries.

CANADIAN PACIFIC has a duty to the public to operate the railway efficiently and economically. CANADIAN PACIFIC, to fulfill this duty, has given notice to the Firemens Union that the findings of the KELLOCK ROYAL COMMISSION will take effect on May 11 1958.
