satan 8 tt A 4 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Seturdey, April 25, 1964 WEEK'S NEWS IN REVIEW Sask. Liberals Win, End Socialist Reign _ 'By JIM PEACOCK Canadian Press St®ff Writer New Canada pension Naclear cuts set World's fair opens A. federal - Quebec agree- it for a national pension of a Liberal government in Saskatchewan ae continued hectic activity stock trading marked the os fronts in Canada this week. ¢ > oe og the United States and the Soviet Union announced that they will re- @uce production of nuclear materials. DOUBLE sHOT Prime Minister Pearson made a double-barrelled an- mouncement in the House of Commons Monday, charting a new retirement pension plan for all Canadians and: prom- ising provincial treasuries an 80,000,000 bonus over the mext two years. It had been an open secret that the federal and Quebec governments had reached a compromise on their two pen- sion plans to allow uniform pension terms to apply across Canada. But Mr. Pearson sur- prised with his statement that Ottawa will relinquish a big new slice of personal income taxes to the provinces, giving them an extra $60,000,000 next year and twice that in 1066. REDUCTIONS ANNOUNCED The U.S. and Soviet Union nuclear announcements came separately but at the same time Monday. President Johnson told an Associated Press luncheon in New York that U.S. will cut production of enriched ura- nium over the next four years and will reduce plutonium output. Premier Khrushchev, in a statement zeleased by the So- viet news agency Tass, said the U.S.S.R. is halting work on two reactors designed to produce plutonium, will sub- stantially cut production of uraniam-235 and will allocate more nuclear. materials for peaceful uses. FAIR OPENS. Opening of New York world's. fair Wednesday was marred by cool, rainy weather and civil rights clamor that held attendance to 92,696. More than 300 persons were atrested for racial demonstra- tions in or around the 646- acre fair site, but a threat- ened stall-in to tie up high- ways leading to the fair didn't materialize. on the second day, with the ¢ivil rights demonstrators ab- sent and the weather fine, attendance climbed to 163,252. CYPRUS VIOLENCE More violence erupted on the Mediterranean island of Cyprus even while 600 Irish troops and 130 more Cana- dians were joining the 7,000- man United Nations peace- keeping force there. A 10-year-old Turkish-Cyp- riot boy was killed in a shoot- ing incident Thursday and a Turkish - Cypriot man was killed Friday amid a host of incidents. Greek - Cyprit President Makarios offered a general amnesty to Turkish-Cypriots, bat Turkish - Cypriot spokes- men rejected it, saying ac- ceptance would be an admis- sion of guilt. LIBERALS WIN Saskatchewan, with a CCF administration the last 20 years, voted in a general election Wednesday and the Liberal party elected 33 mem- bers, the CCF 25 and the Con- servatives one on the basis of initial results. CCF Premier Woodrow Lioyd said, how- ever, that he would not con- cede the Liberals victory un- til final results are known May 13.

Little new data came, how- ever, and Friday trading was much slower.
