'Turned Down By OMB Toronto (Special) -- Appeal bythe Bay Ridges Ratepayers Association against establish- mént of a nursery school on Liverpool Road has been re- jected by the Ontario Municipal card. The OMB, however, sets-con- difions on the operation of the school, The variation allowed in the zoning bylaw is to be valid only until Dec. 21, 1970, and not more than 30 pupils may be in attendance at the school at any one time.

LONDON (Reuters) -- Brit- ons of all ages will celebrate Sir Winston Churchill's 90th birthday Monday with the aid of television. But though they will be able to view many Churchill "'trib- ute' programs on their TV screens they will catch only one glimpse of the old statesman himself.

Greening and S. D. Weisbaum. REPORT APPROVED A.. H. Arrell, OMB vice- chairman held a public hearing on the matter early this month. His report has now been made and his recommendations ap- provel by the Board. Mr. Arrell's report notes that the school property, on Lot 68 on the east side of Liverpool Road, is 'in the northwest por: tion of a residential zone and was originally zoned residen- tial. By bylaw, professional of- fices were allowed on five lots provided any building to be erected should have the external appearance of one family de- tached dwelling."

LIBERALS (Continued from Page 1) several government figures in- tervened in a narcotics case linked with the Mafia interna- tional crime syndicate. Opposition MPs intensified their fire on Mr. Favreau and Immigration Minister Rene Tremblay, whom they accused of*hiding allegations by Mont- real lawyer Pierre Lamontagne frdm mid-August until Monday, when Erik Nielsen (PC--Yukon) disclosed Mr. Lam on tagne's charges. Liberal MPs replied that the Conservatives are trying to vault into power by smearing individuals who have not been charged with any. offence and by: undermining national unity. These were some of the high points in a day of shrill argu- mént: ?. Mr, Favreau said that: his executive assistant, 'Andre J. Letendre. "did in fact call Mr. Lamontagne in relation to the possibility of setting a bond in the case of Rivard." (Lucien Rivard of Montreal is wanted in, the United States on a charge of smuggling heroin as part of an international Mafia- controlled narcotics ring.) 2. Andrew Brewin, NDP mem- ber for Toronto reenwood, said Mr. Favreau made a grievous erfor of judgment when he failed to act on Mr. Lamon- tagne's allegations. He said the minister is unfit to serve in such a high position and should resign. SAID TOD NARROW $. Spokesmen for ail four op- position parties said the terms of reférence of a judicial in- quiry set up by the government Wednesday are too narrow, Act- ing Prime Minister Martin re- plied that the terms are "wide enough' and "comprehensive." 4. Labor Minister Allan Mac- Eachen promised NDP Leader Douglas that he will inquire whether it is. true that a voucher exists in government files showing that Hal Banks, deposed Seafarers International 'separated from the government" early in Octo ber. 5. Gerard Chapdelaine (SC-- Sherbrooke) accused Mr. Niel- sen of character assassination and of unfairly blackening the reputations of certain individ- uals. 6. Opposition Leader Diefen- baker berated the government for 90 minutes for its handling of the Rivard case. He accused Mr. Favreau and Mr, Tremblay of disregarding the rights of Parliament and said he is sur- prised they have not resigned. 7. Finance Minister Gordon said if Mr. Favreau were forced to resign for reasons of political expediency "I for one would not be happy to remain in this "house." The furore arose from Mr. Nielsen's charges Monday that Mr, Denis offered a $20,000 bribe last summer to Mr, La- montagne if he would drop his opposition to Rivard's applica- tion for release on bail. The Yukon MP also charged that Guy Lord, a special assis- tant to. Mr. Favreau until he left for Oxford University in Sep- tember, called Mr. Lamontagne after he had rejected the bribe and threatened to cut off gov- ernment legal retainers for Mr. Lamontagne. Rivard was arrested in Mont- real June 19 and is in jail there pending a hearing Dec, 4 on a writ of habeas corpus. Mr. La- montagne, representing the U.S. government in the case, has op- posed the application to ensure that Rivard, a 48-year-old re- sort owner, will be extradited to the U.S. soon to stand trial. premises and I ~\|ommend that the variation be | valid only until Dec. 21, FACE : jand I also recommend that a eating condition be' added that not Union leader, once gave $1,500 to Raymond Denis, an execu-|attendance at tive assistant to Mr. Tremblay until he' was therefore rec- 1970, more than 30 pupils may be. in any one time, and that subject to these varia- tions the decision of- the Com- mittee of Adjustment be af- firmed." GSE aR aN es (oer ee OTTAWA (CP)--What Justice Minister Favreau offered the {Commons last Tuesday, acting prime minister Martin with- drew two days later. Shortly after the Commons heard explosive charges about bribery and coercion by minis- terial assistants in a narcotics extradition case in Montreal, Mr. Favreau offered a judicial inquiry to find: "Whether, on the basis of the reports submitted to the minis- ter of justice by the RCMP, and the evidence laid before him in connection therewith, it was a reasonable decision on the part of the minister that there was not sufficient evidence to sup- port a successful prosecution." In effect, the inquiry officer was to rule whether Mr, Fav- reau acted reasonably in finding insufficient evidence to prose- cute. But when the cabinet ap- proved the terms of reference and they were tabled in the Commons Wednesday, no men- tion was made of whether the minister's decision not to pros- ecute was reasonable, In fact, the only mention of him was that he had received reports. CRIED FOUL The Opposition parties, Pro- gressive Conservatives and,New Democrats, cried foul. The in- Lake Near But Drought PICTON, Ont. (CP) -- Prince Edward County, an island on which no point is more than 15 miles from Lake Ontario, is suf- fering from a drought that is drying up wells which have sup- plied water for generations. Favreau Offers, Martin Withdraws quiry was to be too limited, they charged. So Andrew Brewin (NDP -- Toronto Greenwood), a promi- nent Toronto lawyer, wrote act- ing prime minister Martin sug- gesting that the cabinet order be ciaiged to include inquiry by the judge into: "The manner in which the RCMP aod any officer thereof and the department of justice and the minister thereof deait with the said allegations when brought to their attention." But Mr, Martin and the cab- inet were adamant. No- judge was going to rule on the conduct of the minister of justice, the man who appoints judges to the bench. His letter replying to Mr, Brewin said: 'The incorpotation of this suggestion in the order'in coun- cil wouid be a specific direction to a commissioner who is not a member of Parliament to pass a judgment upon a minister of the Crown whose responsibility, under our system of govern- ment, is to the House of Com- mons. MEANWHILE, OUT "After careful consideration, therefore, we felt that we should ask the commissioner , ... to leave to Parliament the respon- sibility of deciding, as is its right and duty, whether the minister of justice had acted reasonably in the matter." Mr. Martin's explanation of the cabinet's decision was, in effect, a challenge to the Op- position to make a charge against Mr. Favreau in Parlia- ment, And in case they missed the point he . plained in the House: "IT have answered in a way which will recognize that if any- one has a charge to make there is,a way of dealing with it." The stinger attached was this: if any MP wanted to charge Mr. Favreau with dere- liction of duty, or showing par- tiality in his: decision because WEATHER FORECAST TORONTO (CP) -- Forecast issued by the weather office at 5:30 a.m.: Synopsis: It will probably tend to get a little colder dur- ing the day.
