Finance Minister Gordon an- nounced recently that the pro- gram will be repeated next win- ter. The device is simple; The the federal treasury $13,864,500. The labor department esti- mates that completing these jhouses provided 90,000 on-site jobs and another 115,000 off-site jobs sich as in sawmils, sup- ply and service companies and transportation. This totals 205,- 000 jobs. But since an estimated half of these houses probably would Insults Rain Down Immigration Head OTTAWA (CP) Immigra- tion Minister Tremblay sat si- lent in the Commons Thursday while Opposition questions and insults rained down on him. Why, the Opposition de- manded, 'had Mr. Tremblay ap- pointed Andre Cote to work as his special assistant at $7,500 a year at Baie des Sables, Que.? What were Mr. Cote's duties? What was the purpose of the appointment? Mr. Tremblay declined to say anything and Prime Minister Pearson and the rest of the bib- eral front bench looked more and more flustered as the Op- position barrage went on. Later, Mr. Tremblay said out- side the Commons that Mr. Cote, a resident of neighboring Hull, Que., works part of the week at immigration headquar- ters heré and part of the week on the minister's constituency business at Baie des Sables Privy Council President Mc- lraith said a person may be appointed to serve a minister in any area, not only Ottawa. He said this practice had gone on for a great many years, as Opposition Leader Diefenbaker knew, Mr... Diefenbaker was on.his tic Party leader, and Gilles (Gregoire, deputy Creditiste leader, joined in the attack Commons Speaker Alan Mac- naughton tried to cut off the questioning but was nearly |shouted down by an Opposition chorus of "No, no." Mr. Diefenbaker said Parlia- ment deserved answers from Mr, Tremblay on a few simple questions. Was Mr. Cote looking after the imprisonment of people in Toronto, Mr. Diefenbaker asked --a reference to a number of persons held in jail for periods of more than three months awaiting deportation Mr. Diefenbaker said "the si- lent minister spends $7,500 of the taxpayers' money and won't tell us what it is for." | Thus the government -- prob- ably will break even--perhaps even make a little money. Most 'builders also ended up with a good year. New-house salesmen had big earnings. | But there is some doubt over whether the house-buyers got full value from their $500 gov- ernment cheque. Winter construction costs more. Some builders place th extra cost--heating is the big factor -- at bétween $250 and $400.

Dave Boldt, social welfare and rehabilitation minister in Saskatchewan's new Liberal government, suggested recently, that the federal government share with the provinces and municipalities the cost of tak- ing such persons off relief rolls and putting them to work on public projects. He said such a program could not be imple- mented unless all provinces agreed to it In a separate suggestion af- fecting his province. only, his de- partment, as it does each year, asked all municipalities in Sas- katchewan to get all able-bod- ied men off the relief rolls within two weeks. He said able- bodied persons comprise only five per cent of the 25,000 per- sons now on relief in the proy- ince. 'Provincial policy stipulates that if an able-bodied man re- fuses to take a job offered to him. his relief is cut off '"Our government does not be- lieve that the state owes any able-bodied man a living," said Mr. Boldt DESIRE SHOWN.
