Dief Gives Date For By-E OTTAWA (CP) ' Federal byelections in two ridings in Ontario and Quebec have been called for Sept. 10--though a general election call could wash them out. Prime Minister Diefenbaker announced the date in the Com- mons Tuesday for voting in Waterloo South and Nicolet-Ya- maska, both formerly held by Progressive Conservatives. His choice of Sept. 10 caught a lot of Parliament Hill obser- vers flat-footed. They had been speculating that Mr. Diefen- baker would set a June byelec-} tion date in these ridings to test the political climate in the two vital provinces with an eye fo an autumn general election. The latest twist left some of) Month when an immediate call' th them wondering if the prime minister may be eyeing Mon- day, Sept. 10 for the big vote.
