TWENTY-TWO PAGES HEAVY SESSION AHEAD; VENTFUL BUT STORMY! | 'wast SPEECH FOREBODES ELECTIO A rut EE By FRASER MacDOUGALL OTTAWA (CP)--So many leg- islative proposals were packed into Monday's speech from the throne that it set off a renewed buzz of federal election specu- lation on Parliament Hill. Not that the speech. said any- thing about an election, beyond reiterating the government's in- tention "to make proposals re- garding the limitation and pay- ment of election expenses." But it contained more legisla- ticn proposals than any other speech in the post-war era, all couched in the sort of language that would make attractive reading in an election mani« festo. It led many observers -to the conclusion that the minority Liberal government is getting set to meet any election forced on it by defeat in the Commons East --or to call one itself in an ap- peal for majority support from the electorate in the event its legislative program bogs down in political controversy. The Liberals have 129. seats in the 265-member House, out- numbered by the combined op- position comprising 95 Conserv- atives, 18 New Democrats, 13 Creditistes, nine Social Credit and one independent. FACES TEST The government faces its first no-confidence tests of the ses- sion in the eight-day throne speech debate which opens to- day. Every opposition amendment voted on in this period is re- garded as a test of confidence. Defeat of the government forces on one would force dissolution of Parliament :and an election.

The speech remarked that despite a high rate of economic growth, the full potential of the Canadian economy is not being realized, "The talents of some of our people are wasted because of poverty, illness, inadequate edu- cation and training, inequality in opportunities for work. TU Youth Corps By BEN WARD OTTAWA (CP) Opening frills dispensed with, Parlia- ment digs into a new session today armed with one of the heaviest packages of legislative proposals ever handed it, The government - written speech from the throne, read by Governor-General Vanier at Monday's ceremonial opening, has set the stage for what could stormy third session of this 26th Parliament. Opposition Leader Diefen- baker was scheduled to kick off the Opposition assault on the government's legislative outline. Three items dominated 3,000-word policy statement: --Calling of a federal-provin- cial conference as a first cau- tious step towards a national medical care plan. --Enactment of welfare and job-creating measures aimed at what the throne speech called the elimination of pov- erty. --Establishment of a Com- pany of Young Canadians to tackle economic and social projects at home and abroad, much like the late president Kennedy's youth-oriented U.S. Peace Corps, the N Medicare Parley Planned, Pearson Aim be an eventful and politically § Germany closed Berlin's high- way links to West Germany for the second straight day today, but opened them after 4% hours, police reported.

Initial reaction from Opposi- tion critics was mild, apart from some scathing comments from Mr. Diefenbaker who termed it an "election mani- festo.""

As railway crews and rescue workers dug today in the tan- gled wreckage, officials said the accident apparently was caused by a defective signal light. Both the freight and passenger en- gineers died in the Collision. The .shock hurled six steel passenger cars off the rails. Most of the dead were in the first two passenger cars, The passenger train was tra- described as an agency "through which the energies and talents of youth can be en- listed in projects for. economic and social development both in Canada and abroad." There had been no previous mention of such an organiza- tion, either in Parliament or by cabinet ministers speaking outside. But the idea appeared to be directly related to the U.S. Peace Corps program. But even more startling was the ambitious proposal for "the full utilization of our human resources and the elimination of poverty among our people." This took in such things as increased incentives for re- gional development, re-employ- ment and training of workers, assistance to the needy as en- visaged by the Canada Assist- ance Plan, a new found for ru- ral development, expanded pro- grams of slum clearance and the general field of automation problems. velling from Rio de Janeiro to Tres Rios,
