Wlt Hgmsvwnveisizw the oxamInor Monday July 11 107 extra Japanese again elect minority TOKYO AP Premier Takeo Fukudas LiberalDemo cratic party appeared headed today for its second major re buff at the polls in seven months as computer projections in dicated it would fall three seats short of majority in the up per house of parliament Both the Kyodo news service and the Japan Broadcasting Corp said their computers after digesting the returns at midmorning from Sundays election for half the members of the House of Councillors predicted the conservative for ces that have governed Japan for 29 years would wind up with 124 of the total 252 seats That would be two less than they have had since 1973 and will mean continuation of the era of compromise that began with the LiberalDemocrats setback in the lowerhouse elections last December Because of the Lockheed payoff scandal and the in volvement in it of former premier Kakuei Tanaka and other leading LiberalDemocrats the conservative party lost 16 seats then It patched together threeseat majority in the lower house by enlisting the support of eight independents but has been forced to make extensive compromises with the opposition for the first time LOSES MAJORITY Now it must manoeuvre to avoid defeat in the House of Councillors also since it no longer has the twothirds major ity in the House of Representatives needed to override an adverse vote in the upper house Though all parties played down Lockheed in this cam paign it was apparent that resentment over the scandal and the strong influence of big business on the conservative par ty is still strong Foreign policy was not an issue in the cam paign Schmidt surprised at the room DULUTH Minn AP West German Chancellor Helmut Schmidt spent Sun day at lake in the Wiscon sin woods and was surprised at the room for population expansion said his host Philip Hanft Hanft second cousin to Schmidt said the chancellor had requested prior to his coming here Saturday evening that they find time to motor to Hanfts cottage on Whitefish Lake near Gor don Wis and about 50 miles fmm Duluth He was intrigued by the fact there was so much vacant land areas of woods without anything Hanft told reporter Also this lake is particularly over populated Immigration bill wrong HAMILTON CP proposed immigration bill saying that persons believed likely to engage in criminal activity should not be granted admission to Canada is fun damentally wrong the president of the Canadian Civil Liberties Association says Alan Borovoy told public forum Saturday that the proposed Bill C24 breaches fundamental democratic prin ciples and that there is something rather improper about using clairvoyance as the basis for deportation from this country Paul Copeland Toronto lawyer who specializes in im migration and criminal law said some clauses in the proposed legislation invest too much authority in the hands of immigation officials and police Im all for keeping out people involved in organized crime Copeland said He said that in his view however the RCMP are writing themselves piece of legislation to give themselves power that nobody seems to be questioning He said in an interview after the forum that about 2000 permanent residents and landed immigrants are deported from Canada each year HELMUT SCHMIDT Commercial whaling demonstration Carter rejects Japan oil swap WASHINGTON AP President Carter has rejected proposals that Alaskan pipeline oil be ship to Japan and Japanese oi sent to the United States energy adviser James Schlesinger said Sunday Schlesinger on NBCTVs Meet the Press said the presi dent has reviewed that matter and he believes that swaps would be undesirable partly for political grounds partly for other technical reasons Schlesinger admitted that Americans would not be happy to see oil from the Uni ted States shipped to another country during an energy crisis The swap was one possible method of handling an expected surplus of oil for the west coast once the Alaskan pipeline starts operating at full capacity Under the pro osal Japanesepurchased oi would have been shipped to the United States Some US and oil in dustry officials said the ex change would have lowered transportation costs in the US When asked if the swap would be politically unpopular Schlesinger responded think that is very pnwerful argu ment and as consequence there Will be no exchanges Schlesinger said the Carter administration is considering limiting the flow of foreign oil into the US as one alternative in its attempt to cut domestic energy consumption But he added you cant go very far in that direction do not think we want to create controlled scarcity He said the administration estimates that imported oil could be cut to about 30 per cent of the total consumed in the United States by 1985 if Carters energy program is enacted It now imports about 40 per cent Other alternatives being con sidered by the administration to cut oil consumption in ad dition to gasoline taxes are shutting down gasoline stations andi temporary rationing he sat rationing plan would have to be approved by Congress Schlesinger said and would be imposed only in the event of an interruption of supply It would not be used as an ordinary con servation measure he said Radio falls in bath woman among 33 dead By THE CANADIAN PRESS 22yearold Simcoe
