2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thursday, April 20, 1961 | | OTTAWA (CP) -- The govern- nt had the rare pleasure in is Commons Wednesday of in- troducing a new piece of legis- lation which won immediate praise from all parties. Liberal and CCF speakers readily supported the introduc- tory resolution for a bill which will provide support for provin- cial programs to train disabl.d persons in new vocational skills. The acclaim -- quickly fol- lowed by some critical remarks on the same measure -- rapped a day of unusual progress in the government's legislative program. MPs gave final reading to a controversial tariff amendr ent, second reading to a new Can- ada - United States tax treaty and first reading to the bill to support training of the handi- capped. This progress was not, how- |ever, without some sour notes|taxation between the two na-| | are scores of cases of gold min- {from the opposition side. | Liberal and CCF members fused to support third reading (of the tariff d t much criticism in eight previous days of debate. It was sent to the Senate with such dissent noted. FINAL JUDGE The bill sets up the revenue minister as the sole and final judge of whether an imported product is of a type being pro- duced in Canada or capable of being produced here, thus sub- ject to higher rates of duty. The Canada - U.S. tax treaty, two years in the making, went through second reading' and clause - by - clause committee study with one mild comment from Paul Martin (L -- Essex East) who complained that it should have been drawn up a lot s F Finance Minister Fleming said two years was not an un- usual period for negotiating |such a complicated treaty. | The bill seeks to avuid double |tions.

The word followed an an- nouncement by a family spokes- man Wednesday that the lanky, laconic actor is critically ill. Cooper, who will be 60 May 7, is confined to his Bel-Air home. The onetime Montana cowboy has starred in 70 pictures, win- ning Movie Academy Oscars as the First World War hero in 1941's Sergeant York and as the duty-bound sheriff in 1952's High Noon. Speculation about his physical condition had heightened since the 33rd annual Academy Awards ceremonies Monday night. Fellow star James Stew- art accepted a special honorary |award for Cooper and, address- ling him directly into the tele- | vision camera, nearly broke linto tears as he spoke words of | |tribute. | So emotional was Stewart's |praise that a recent explanation of Cooper's confinement -- that he sufiered a pinched nerve in la movie fight scene--was ques- |tioned. Gary Cooper La Presse Shaken By Resignations MONTREAL (CP) -- La Presse, Quebec province's larg- est daily newspaper, will be! witho1t its president, three di- rectors and its editor-in-chief following a group resignation of five executives announced Wed- nesday. Front-page statements pub- lished by the newspaper dis- closed that Mme. Angelina Du- Tremblay has resigned as pres- ident along with three members of the board of directors and the editor-in-chief of La Presse, Jean-Louis Gagnon. The three directors were Jacques Belanger, assistant general manager; J. - Alexan- {dre Prud'homme, chairman of the board, and C.-A. Geoffrion, secretary. The fact the Quebec govern-| ment had not seen fit to put! through private legislation plac- ing the administration of La Presse in the hands of a foun- members of her family had be- come associated with "ester- eour interests, close to politics." She said she would now spend her time administering a sep- arate foundation she considered am t to her husband and her father. Mme. DuTremblay said the legislature must respect her father's will and ensure La Press remains withing the Ber- thiaume family. A separate statement, also on the newspaper's front - page and quoting Mr. Gagnon and Mr. Belanger, said a private bill submitted to the legislature - by Mr. Berthia#me's grandchil- dren sought to have control of ithe newspaper removed from Mme.
