Asia Visit is Main
Purpose of PM's Tour
OTTAWA. — Prime Minister
Louis St. Laurent disclosed last
week that, although he goes first
to Europe, the main purpose of
his forthcoming world tour is to
visit Asia.
Canada’s future might well be
greatly7 influenced by7 the decision
now facing Europe, he said, pre­
sumably7 referring to the Berlin
conference. But Canada was vital­
ly7 concerned with what happened
in Asia, St. Laurent declared.
The Prime Minister leaves here
tomorrow, Feb. 4, by7 an RCAF
plane. After visiting the main
capitals of Europe and the Cana­
dian troops there, he will fly7 to
Pakistan. He will spend over
three weeks in the Far East,
flying home from Tokyo. He re­
turns to Ottawa on Mar. 17.

She wonders now if it’s worth being a Very Nice Girl. Her
friends are giving her plenty of time to get over this idea —
