Mr. Diefenbaker is said to have given Mr. Robarts a hint that the constitutional formula was the most promising spring- board to an early election. Mr. Diefenbaker has been se- verely critical of the formula,|_ arguing that it would lead to the "balkanizaiion'"' of Canada into groupings of semi-autonomous provincial governments and would leave the federal Parlia- ment only restricted fields of action. Race-Dating Rule Review MOOSE JAW, Sask. (CP)-- Henry Hildebrand, president of Briercrest Bible Institute, said Monday it is possible that an incident involving a_ student from the West Indies could lead to a "reconsideration" of a rule dealing with inter-racial dating. He was commenting on state- ments made Sunday night on a CBC television program by Denny Grant of Antigua, a for- mer student at the school. Mr. Grant said in an inter- view he had been told to leave the school because he would not sign regulations that banned in- ter-racial dating without written consent from parents or guard- jans. Mr. Grant, 26, entered the school last fall to study for the Highlights of the Annual Safe Driver's banquet, Sat- urday night, was the presen- tation of safe driving pins to the more than 200 driv- ers in Oshawa who were NASA GOOF HAS NUN IN SPACE SOUTH BEND, Ina.

Health : Minister Judy La- Marsh said the change will help those now living abroad but who spent most of their lives in this country. J.

The House approved a gov- ernment amendment to re- fluce the eligibility age for the $75 monthly old age pay- ment to 65 from 70 by 1970. It also approved an amend- ment to make any person who lives 40 years in Canada after his 18th birthday eligible for the venefit. This would avoid maintain- ing residence in Canada for a year prior to making applica- tion. Jack Biggs (PC -- Atha- Yasca) said the eligibility age should be lowered to 65 im- mediately. Stanley Knowles (NDP -- Winnipeg North Centre) said the monthly payment should bekoosted to $100. Social, Credit Leader Thompson said it should in- crease $5 a year until $100 is reached. Raymond Langlois (Credit- iste--Megantic) said. it should be boosted to $125. An opposition attempt to have the $75. payment made immediately to persons aged 65 was defeated with an 86 to 51 vote. The vote for the clause as amended, with the five-year reduction program to age 65, was 87 to 52 in favor. TUESDAY, March 16 The Commons meets at 2:30 p.m. to continue the pension debate. The Senate meets at 8 p.m. Forsey writes. OPPOSED BY CCF This doctrine was opposed by the old CCF party as contrary to reason, history and common sense, and "there was no part of. CCF doctrine which I con- sidered better grounded . . . and my opinion remhains unrevised and unrepented." "Nonetheless, I support the Favreau-Fulton formula." Dr. Forsey, a member of the CCF. from its beginning until it transformed itself into the New Democratic Party, said that for the last 30 years a convention has developed that important amendments to the constitution require the consent of all the provinces. In this respect, the formula initiated by former justice min- ister E. Davie Fulton and de- veloped by Justice Minister Guy Favreau really contains noth- ing new. "No party would dare propose to Parliament any amendment itransferring any provin- cial power to the Dominion, or any Dominion power to the provinces without first getting the unanimous consent of the provinces, And there is not the smallest prospect of any change in this situation within any measurable time." However, Reid Scott, NDP member for Toronto's Danforth riding, says the party will op- pose the adoption of the for- mula as it stands in the House of Commons.
