Levens, whose home is in San Diego, Calif., was taken to San Francisco General Hospi- tal for observation. --(AP Wirephoto) Three Years In Jail For $500,000 Theft VANCOUVER (CP) -- Doug- las Brown, 35, Loomis Armored Car Company driver who ad-| mitted stealing $500, employer, Wednesday was sen to jail for three years.

That was in Cochrane North, where Andre Verreault, chosen earlier to run as Social Credit candidate, failed to make his formal application to the retunn- ing officer in Cochrane. When it became apparent that Mr. Verreault had missed the deadiine, Alphonse Brisson of Cochrane attempted to qualify as the Social Credit candidate in his stead, but was told by Re- turning Officer M. A. Palangio that he was too late. The Social Credit slate of four remained unchanged, however, when William Triska made a last-minute application in Haldi- mand-Norfolk and qualified be- fore the deadline. The party has three other candidates, in Grey South, Lincoln and Renfrew) North, QUALIFY SIx A splinter group of the party known as Social Credit Action qualified with candidates in six Toronto ridings, although two others had been expected to run, The biggest group of last-min- ute filers were independents, all in Metropolitan Toronto, where four qualified during the day. This brought the total of inde. pendents in the province to nine including Gordon Lavergne, who sat as Progressive Conservative member of the last house for /Russell, in the Ottawa area. Premier Robarts and party au- thorities endorsed another can- didate, and Mr. Lavergne de- cided to run as an independent One independent, Howar qd) Prentice, earlier expected to run in Lincoln, failed to file be- fore the deadline. was Dorothy Cureatz, who qual- ified in Toronto St. Andrew and brought the total of women can- didates to 15. She was an unsuc. cessful Social Credit candidate in the last Ontario election in 1959, when 10 women competed but none was elected, The other 1959 woman candidate in the field again is Mrs, Alice Katool, NDP candidate in Welland. Europe Weather Good For Canada LONDON (CP)--Bad weather, striking hard at British and Eu- ropean grain fields, may im- prove the export prospects for Canada's bumper wheat crop, authorities said Wednesday. The National Farmers Union said cutting is five weeks be- hind schedule in parts of Brit- ain as harvesters strike to cope with rain and cold winds that have battered cereal crops for weeks, One source said the British and European crops are likely to be reduced in quality because of late-harvest, flattening and sprouting, as well as in quantity. 338 Candidates Sets. Record For Ontario As predicted, both the Pro- gressive Conservative and Lib- eral parties nominated candi- dates as wet: in all 108 ridings, ruling out the prospect of an ac- clamation on nomination day. The New Democratic Party added one last-minute candidate before the deadline, in Lamb- ton East, making a total of 97 candidates for the NDP. The Communists are running six candidates, including Ontario Leader Bruce Magnusson. The 338 total, biggest ever in an Ontario election, marked the third time the number of candi- dates has exceeded 300. The pre- vious record was 317 in 1945, when competition was Yor only 90 seats, with 314 in the 1955 election the second largest shuw- ing. In the 1959 election, 206-can- didates competed. Standing in the House at dis- solution was Progressive Con- servatives 63; Liberals 24, NDP|. 5, Vacant 6. All sitting Liberal and NDP members are running again. Fifty-four of the PC members at dissolution are run- ning for re-eiection, and' the party has added another 54 new candidates. NEW YORK (AP)--An inter- national dialogue opened Wed- nesday over the much-discussed trading stamp. Such stamps were denounced in Britain as a U.S, "mania" and a "protection racket" oisted on merchants, They were defended here as the re- tailer's salvation and a' boon to customers. "Within the next decade, stamps will cover the world," said William H. Preis, an atr dent and successful »romoter of their spread in the United States.

They apparently figured that the longer the unpopular dicta- torial Diem regime remained in power, the sooner the day Cong Again may indicate the. Viet Cong forces have concluded the time is ripe to remind the population once again that they are ready to fill any political vacuum that would result from the downfall of the Diem goverment. Diem, brought to power in 1954 with the popular support of the people, has lost support of the people, has lost support steadily for the last three years despite millions of dollars of U.S. foreign aid aimed primar- iy at fighting the Viet Cong. Much of Diem's trouble can be blamed on his militant brother, Ngo Dinh Nhu, and Mme. Ngo Dinh Nhu, sister-in- law of the president, who are responsible for launching the! attacks on the Buddhists. | Strong opinion is that no amount of foreign aid can carry Diem's regime to victory over the Communists and that a new government is the only answer to South Viet Nam's immediate problems. Trading Stamp Talks Opened - dise items, vacation trips and even fire engines -- up from about $30,000,000 worth in 1950, Preis said. He added that use of stamps also is wide-spread in Canada. The stamp contagion was condemned by a member of Parliament in Britain. John Stonehouse, a Labor MP spear- heading an anti-stamp crusade, declared stamps were pushing up the cost of living for Britons, and demanded a government in- vestigation. Stonehouse said consumers would pay more im prices than they get back in merchandise premiums 'and, furthermore, holding the retailers to ransom to give stamps is tantamount to a protection racket." DEFENDS STAMPS Preis, outgoing president of the Trading Stamp Institute of America, replied that stamps have caught on im Britain in the last five years and "'nobody held a gun at the merchants' heads." The row in Britain com- manded front-page newspaper attention, focussed on specula- tiors that anti-stamp stores will cut grocery prices up to 25 per cent to meet the stamp chal: lenge. Introduction of 'stamps has been slated by the 200-store Fine Fare group, controlled by Canadian Garfield Weston, The Fine Fare group is reported tu seek thereby to halt losses. Y%Preis said that in Canada 19 of the 20 largest food chains-- plus assorted other retailers-- now dispense trading stamps. He shrugged off recent bank- ruptcies of stamp companies in Connecticut and Long Island, anti-stamp bills im 40 state legislatures this year (nearly all unsuccessful), '"'wildcat'" stamp ventures offering only credit in the store of issue, and other problems in the U.S. stamp industry.

"It has become impossible to deal with her," the premier said after reading quoted remarks of Miss LaMarsh suggesting insin- cerity on the pension question on the part of the provincial gov- ernment, now engaged in a gen- eral election campaign in which Taxi Driver Tells Of Killing In Cab LONDON, Ont. (CP) -- Lloyd McFadden, 28-year-old former London taxi driver, testified Wednesday at his capital mur- der trial that he killed William Henry Doxtator of the nearby Oneida Indian Reserve April 3. The sole defence witness, Mc- Fadden told a Supreme Court jury he fatally struck the 54- year-old father of 10 with a hammer-like tool only because Doxtator was attacking him 'dike a wild animal." : He said Doxtator was striking him, from the rear of a cab with a large spotlight. After beating Doxtator off, he testified he stopped the cab he was driving when he heard no breathing coming from the back in various fields and said that he '"'wouldn't be surprised if it has become the hottest con- troversy. The Progressive Conservative premier blasted the Liberal min- ister--the federal cabinet mem- ber most directly concerned in the pension plan. "I have no other course but to deal directly with the prime minister on this question in fu- ture," Mr. Robarts said. WANTS. REMOVED Mr. Robarts had stated pre- viously he wants the pension question removed from the pro- vincial election plank, in which Ontario Liberal Leader John Wintermeyer has been accusing him of trying to blockade the national plan. He said later in a campaign address that it is time for a re- allocation of tax revenue as be- tween the different levels of government, "I think we will have to meet to deal with the whole question of the allocation of revenues to fit the various responsibilities of of tax fields was a question that must be dealt with, though what we should have an eye on is closer co-operation with a view to creating new opportunities. If we create the atmosphere the revenue will naturally follow." _ Talking to about 350 persons in Kent West riding, Mr, Ro- barts said his government is ready and anxious to. co-oper- ate wholeheartedly with the fed- pi Aggro "in any and all efforts designed to strengthen the position of Canada." He was determined that no partisanship would stand in thi way of Canadian progress.
