New Democrat Members Scrutinize Legislation By FARMER TISSINGTON OTTAWA (Special) -- Parlia- ment's Terrible Twosome, Frank Howard and Arnold Peters, are involved in a per- sonal campaign to reform par- Hament. Mr. Peters, the mem- ber for Timiskaming in North- ern Ontario, made this clear to me in an interview during the frustration of the Commons' abortive Easter recess. Mr. Peters and Mr. Howard, the MP for Skeena in British Columbia, first joined ranks six years ago when they waged a fight to force Quebec and New- foundland divorce bills out of 'the Commons. Their stubborn refusal to approve these bills created such a backlog and stalemate that action was fin- ally taken late last year to ap- point a divorce commissioner and the Commons no longer rubber-stamps each case. Now they have turned their attention to another campaign which has broader implications and much greater importance. Fed up with the inaction of successive Commors' commit- tees on procedure, Howard and Peters are now trying to force parliament to revise its rules and regulations. UNANIMOUS CONSENT They..have been government estimates and re- lend they have sight justifies the autocratic means they are adopting. Democratic pair has become increasingly unpopular in the Commons, not only with mem- bers of other parties, but with some of their own colleagues. The NDP whip and house lead- er Stanley Knowles, for in- stance, has been continuously frustrated in his efforts to reach agreement with other party house leaders on_ the arrangement of the Commons' business. Mr, Knowles attends meetings of the leaders in the knowle~ je that he cannot guar- antee his two mavericks will toe the line agreed to by other members of the party caucus. NOT UNDERSTOOD The Howard-Peters' campaign 'is not fully understood by other MPs, many of whom regard them as stubborn, talkative renegades who refuse to ac- cede to the majority wish out of a desire to exercise the power an individual MP can wield under the present rules. Mr. Peters admits, though Mr. Howard does not, that their, attitude may not be totally dem- ocratic. But he argues that the Day. If we get that assurance, we will be satisfied for the time being." SEEK SUMMER SESSION But a set summer recess is only part of what Howard and Peters are seeking. They be- lieve there are many other Commons' rules which need re- vising. They contend, for in- stance, that parliament should meet each year on set, pre- arranged dates, that the time allotted for debate on the speech from the throne and the budget should be drastically re- duced, and that standing com- mittees be set up early in every session to give the back-bench| MPS something to do. "It is true that reform of the rules is being discussed by a special committee, but we have seen similar committes at work almost every year with little achieved," Mr, Peters argues. "We feel that by using a stick, by refusing to pass estimates until we get some concession, we can reach these goals much faster." "Every time we refuse to go co-operation on su ch along, refuse matters as sitting extra and doing away with the pri- through members to break-off » refuse to allow for bers of all parties are now jaware of their purpose and that some have expressed sympathy to rush the esti-/with their efforts. observers Christmas or Easter recesses, we have managed to gain some concession from the govern- 'vate members' hour in order to edivance legislation, They are aided and abetted by rules which require the unanimous consent of all members - pres- ent before such changes can be approved.

McINTYRE HOOD Special London (Eng.) Correspondent For The Oshawa Times LONDON -- A report by the Customs and Excise Depart- ment of the government has brought the drinking habits of the British people into. the headlines again. The main fea- ture of the report was that it showed that the consumption of spirits in Britain, in the last fiscal year, reached its highest level for 30 years, and amount- ed to 16,300,000 proof gallons. This is the equivalent to a con- sumption of four bottles a year for every adult in Britain. Wine drinking in Britain has also reached a new peak. The amount of wine consumed sur- passed the record of the previ- ous year by 1.3 million gallons to reach a new total of 22 mil- lion gallons, In the face of this increase in drinking of wine and spirit consumption, it is recorded that beer drinking had declined. PRODUCES REVENUE Outstanding in the report, however, is the fact that alco- holic liquors accounted for 17% per cent of the country's total revenue, They brought in a total of $1395 million, an in- crease of $66 million. Beer duty receipts contributed more than half the total, rising by $21 mil- lion to $762 million, Revenues from spirits rose by $39 mil- lion to $555 million. Receipts for wine duties increased to $63 million, In the same context, it is recorded that tobacco duty paid by British smokers amounted to $2634 million, nearly 33. per cent of the total revenue and $24 million more than in the previous year. While discussing wine and spirits, note must be made of a vigorous campaign which has been instituted by the Scotch Whiskey Association to induce foreign government to ban im- ports of immature whiskey.

GM 1963 Take Largest In World History By ROGER LANE NEW YORK (AP)--General Motors Corp. took in more rev- enue last year than the U.S. Treasury. received in any year up to 1943, in the middle of the Second World War. The auto - making colossus needed one-fourth of its $16,500,- 000,000 receipts to meet a $4,- 00,000,000 payroll. The payroll was bigger than those of all the U.S. steel companies combined. GM had. 640,000 employees. With their families, the workers outnumbered the _ respective populations of 27 of the 50 American states. GM's $1,600,000,000 profit, largest achieved by any busi- ness corporation in history, was nearly triple the state general purpose budget of Michigan, GM's home state. ports of whiskey which is only a few months old.
