"I protest most strongly this attitude of mind of the present government," Mr. Diefenbaker told a hastily summoned press conference. He said he plans to raise the matter in the Com- mons. "Tt seems to be a government whose purpose is to remove any vestige of our traditions. "very week this is a govern- ment that seems to be moving ahead removing the things that are traditional and that hold this country together." A spokesman for Citizenship] Minister Tremblay said the min- ister.was not aware of the di- rective. He said it resulted from Dief Protests Removal Of Queen's Portrait Queen's portrait, the Canadian coat of arms and the two Red Ensigns which are supplied to the court by the department. USE DISCRETION He said some of the judges used their own discretion and placed the Queen's portrait in the courtroom with the flags and coat of arms. Others used only the coat of arms and flags in the courtroom. The spokesman said that about 10 days ago K. C. Fos- ter, registrar of citizenship, in- structed the 10 citizenship courts that the correct proced- ure was to have only the coat of arms and flags in the court- room and the Queen' sportrait in the judge's office. He said it is in the judge's of- fice "'where all new Canadians are interviewed and the judge could point out who,is our Queen."' Mr. Diefenbaker said he was inquiries from the courts about the proper placing of the informed of the removal of the portrait in the Edmonton citi- zenship court and was told that it resulted from advice by the undersecretary of state that the correct protocol was to have the portrait in the judge's cham- bers. He said he wonders whether the government received its ad- vice from Auguste Choquette, Liberal MP for Lotbiniere, whom he called an advocate of abolishing the monarchy. "T don't know where we're going," Mr. Diefenbaker said. "The old regiments are being disbanded and there are consti- tutional amendments that per- mit of the setting up of associ- ate states." Some 375 courts across Can- ada have been designed under the Canadian citizenship regis- tration branch of the federal de- partment to rule on applica- tions for citizenship, A judge hears the application and gives a decision on it.

Mr. Wright said from Port Arthur in a telephone intérview that he and Dr. Joseph Moody of Elliot Lake, then medical health officer for the area, were told "it was none of our busi- ness" when they became suspi- cious of rising chemical indus- trial pollution in lakes which supplied the town's water. "We told them we'd take our own action, and we told them that what we knew wasn't good. Only then did we get any- where," said Mr. Wright who left Elliot Lake June 1 to be- come chief inspector of the Port Arthur. district health unit. He said there was an argu- ment at Queen's Park about where responsibility lay for the safety of the water, and the On- tario Water Resources Commis- _|sion began to co - operate in- creasingly. A commission report last week said radioactive contamin- ation of the Serpent River wa- tershed area near Elliot Lake and in lakes near Bancroft 60 miles northeast of Peterbor- ough, could: become serious if left unchecked, The report said the contam- ination result from uranium mining waste products called "talings" being dumped in the watershed area. Mr. Wright blamed political and business pressure for mis- takes made in Elliot Lake at the outset of its boom in 1955 when, he said, dumping of tail- ings was mot properly super- vised. "It.was a political job at the start. Canada was getting $12 a pound for uranium--it's getting $4 now--and it was willing to do anything to put these compa- nies in business." He said his main concem with the pollution was the long- term effect. "For the adults, it could pos- sibly be called an industrial hazard, but hundreds of kids on the mine sites drank contamin- ated water all their existence," he said. Premier Robarts of Ontario has asked the water commis- sion to make a full report on the. pollution situation at Elliot Lake and at the lakes near Bancroft. NOR TH ATLANTIC ALLIANCE Wilson Hints Are Anti-France LONDON (CP)--Prime Minis- ter Harold Wilson has placed Britain beside the United States and against France's President de Gaulle in the cur- rent struggle over the future of the North Atlantic Alliance. In his first major foreign pol- icy address: since the new La- bor. government took power, Wilson did not mention France but this was plainly his mean- ing when he categorically re- jected the idea of a separate European nuclear deterrent. Addressing an annual Guild- hall Banquet given by Britain's financial and business leaders be one of our main purposes in the discussions to see that there are not any." Wilson, after noting that Brit- ain is undertaking a defence re- view and that he will be meet- ing President Johnson in Wash- ington soon, said the European- deterrent idea is "dangerous." "It would weaken and divide NATO, for there is nothing so debilating as an alliance within an alliance. It would, I think, face our American allies with a serious reappraisal of their at- titude toward Europe. Monday night, Wilson declared: "In a nuclear world safety lies in collective security, in al- liances based on interdepend- ence. "No member of NATO has the right, whether through nos- talgic delusions or for any other reason, to endanger the strength and security of the alliance as a whole.
