Eventually, Ayub Khan said, Pakistan will have to begin storing and conserving the river waters "and that can be done only in the hilly areas of Kash- mir."

"What with the critical ho- tel shortage," Charlie said, "we thought we were per- | forming a real public ser- vice." An ex - sign painter whose real name was Charles Greer, Charlie dubbed the hideaway below the fortress of the law --"Hotel de Bastille." Busi- ness was good. Back in 1948, the city's ho- boes sought shelter there from the elements and the po- lice. Charlie and his pals tapped the building's electrical sys- tem for light, got water by cutting into pipes. Steam heat warmed them in winter subterranean breezes cooled the passage- way in summer. Guests slept on several layers of cardboard covered with blankets, old mattresses, old sofas, and automobile seats, Sherry, muscatel, canned heat and other seda- tives lulled them to sleep. Charlie and the boys em- bellished their retreat with hot plates, drop lights and other homey items. They stole much of the stuff. The hotel was exclusive. It was for thin men only.

Singing, Happy MPs End Longest Session By ROBERT RICE Canadian Press Staff Writer OTTAWA (CP) -- Parliament went on an eight-week summer holiday today. The vacation break came at 10:42 EDT Thursday night, but it was an anti-climax, a weary finale to a withering day of ra- pid-fire events. Prime Minister Diefenbaker proposed the summer adjourn- ment '"'on this, the 157th day of the longest session, up to this oment. . . ." There was gay abandon as MPs broke into song when the House adjourned until Thurs- day, Sept. 7. Never before in Canada's his- tory has Parliament sat so long or adjourned on such a drama- tic note. Thursday will go down in the records as the day James E. Coyne quit of his own accord as governor of the Bank of Canada, his honor and integrity upheld by a rebellious Liberal majority in the Senate. BILL DIED The government's bill to fire him died in the Senate. The 50-year-old ex-governor of the central bank promptly an- nounced plans for a holiday. A few hours later, MPs and senators were freed for a sim- ilar vacation. Because legislation must be approved by both houses of Par- liament before it can receive royal assent and become law, the Senate's action killed the bill outright. The bill simply vanished from the Senate's order paper and no message was sent to the Com- mons. But many may be girding themselves for a campaign on the hutsings in anwcipation of a general election later this year. The session was adjourned on an election note, with CCF MPs, making swan-song speeches as members of the Co-oper- ative Commonwealth Federa- tion, challenging the government to go to the people immediately. The CCF MPs will return to the House in September as New Party MPs, following the found- ing convention later this month of a new left - wing political body. The CCF and the Cana- dian Labor Congress are setting up the party. With the birth of the New Party, the CCF party vanishes. SCORN GOVERNMENT CCF MPs heaped scorn upon insult in daring the government to call an election. "I would say that at this time Canada is probably the most mismanaged country in the world -- the most incompe- tently mismanaged country in the world," said CCF Leader Argue, who is fighting Premier T. C. Douglas of Saskatchewan for the New Party leadership. He called for immediate gov- ernment action to help the drought-stricken Prairie farm- ers. "Go to the country now," challenged Erhart Regier, CCF financial critic from Burnaby- Coquitlam.
