2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Fridey, September 4, 1964 FOR PUTURE SAFETY Block ;iculation of 84,461, y LONDON (CP)--Lord Thom- son is in for a fight in his bid to take over the Outram group of Scottish newspapers. Sir Hugh Fraser, deputy chairman of the Glasgow pub- lishers, said the directors will not accept the Canadian-born publisher's £5,250,000 ($15,750,- 000) offer for two Glasgow daily newspapers, six weekly news- papers and eight magazines, Lord Thomson offered £1 ($3) for each share that originally sold for 5s and which, until Thomson's offer, had been hov- ering around the 15s mark. On Thursday Thomson said: 'We stand or fall on our original of- fer." As Fraser and Thomson made their statements, dealings on the stock exchange showed Out- ram shares selling for as high as 22s, 6d. They closed at 21s $d. Thomson already owns the Edinburgh Seotsman with its circulation of 71,721. If he gets the Glasgow Herald with its cir- he would have control of what are con- sidered Scotland's most influen- tial newspapers. WANTS ANOTHER Another Outram daily that Thomson wants is the Glasgow royal commissioner on civil Staff Must Leam Law Before Rights Hearrings Monopoly Fear May Thomson Bid -- Evening Times with a. circula- tion of 234,335. Although The Scotsman and Herald have smaller circula- tions than The Times, the lat- ter has less prestige and influ- ence. When Thomson refused to raise his price he was asked whether he thought his offer was fair, in view of the higher prices being paid Thursday for Outram shares, "That is not a very optimistic sign for me," Thomson replied. "There is something going on somewhere. It may be that some shareholders think I will increase my Offer. e "If that is what they are thinking, they had better have' another thought." Fraser said in a statement that the company's profits. were rising and it was about to launch seyeral projects after years of preparation. | Fraser indicated Outram \would link up with Beaver- ibro@ok newspapers, formerly jowned by the late Canadian- born publisher, Lord Beaver- brook, and now owned by Bea- verbrook's son, Sir Max Aitken. FOLLOWS DISCUSSION "After severa! years of dis- cussion," Fraser said, "'agree- ment has been reached with . Beaverbrook newspapers | | | that in the event of George Outram and Company Limited remaining independent, a joint company to publish -the Glas- gow evening newspapers will be formed." "The directors are not accept- ing Lord Thomson's offer and are advising shareholders. also not to accept it," he said. He added that assurances had .al- ready been received from many of the principal shareholders that the Thomson bid would be rejected. f Observers here felt Fraser's| objection to Thomson's bid was not purely a financial one. There has been wide concern in some press and political cir- cles over Thomson's offer. Some people fear the takeover bid, if successful, would mean that Thomson would have a dangerous monopoly in Scottish communications. Besides The Scotsman, Thom- son owns the Aberdeen Press and Journal, the Edinburgh Evening News and Dispatch, the Aberdeen Evening Express and Scottish Television, which transmits to about 1,0000,00 homes in ¢gentral Scotland.

Some recent polls have indicated that foreign affairs is the most important election is- sue for a majority of voters. The other source of pressure is the Communist Viet Cong, which eased its military action during the Saigon riots as it has during previous coups and riots, But it would seem inevitable that well before Nov. 3 ballot- ing, the Viet Cong will have struck even harder blows than heretofore.
