Fag, Cookie: 'Monkey On Your Back?' TULSA, Okla. (AP)--A Cana- dian P genseo yan roa says com; g urge for another cigarette or an extra biscuit may be as great -- and more difficult to overcome--as the uncontrolled drive which pushes an alcoholic to drink. The knowledge that over- consumption has caused physi- cal damage frequently has little effect on the addict's ability to stop, said Dr. R. Gordon Bell. Bell, in Tulsa for a meeting of the National Council on Al- coholism, said in an interview that "over-all clinical manage- ment of a food problem is fre- quently more demanding and more severe than that of a drinking problem." The Toronto physician said even in cases where "people know they are already dam- aged physically," the interrup- tion of tobacco and food habits is 'more of a problem than they realized." A major factor frequently overlooked, Bell said is the so- cial restraint usually applied to persons addicted to alcohol The compulsive eater or chain smoker escapes the threat of social ostracism and their prob- lems remain essential only to themselves. Pearson Asked To Defend CBC OTTAWA (CP) -- The Cana- dian Broadcasting League has urged Prime Minister Pearson to continue government policy of non-intervention of the CBC and disregard "'ill - considered criticisms" of the publicly- owned body. The league, made up of in- dividuals and several organiza- tions--including the Association of Canadian Television and Ra- dio Artists, Canadian Federa- tion of Agriculture, Canadian Labor Congress and Federated Women's Institutes of Canada-- released Friday a copy of a let- ter sent to Mr. Pearson Wed- nesday. It said the league had "deep concern" about the implications for Canadian broadcasting of views expressed by groups like the Declaration of Canadian Women, which last month pre- sented Mr. Pearson with a 76,- 000 - signature petition demand- ing the CBC "clean up" its television programming. base at Toronto Thursday night, with a contingent of 125 officers and men of the ist Canadian Guards from Cpl.

Har- bottle signed a statement in which he said Fawcett neither struck the assessors nor fired at their car. None of the four neighbors in Fawcett's car had been called to testify either, Mr. Lewis said. When the case was reviewed in the Supreme Court, Mr. Justice Spence had said he might have been assisted by this evidence. Attorney General Arthur Wishart said Fawcett was rep- resented by a most capable law- yer who had the opportunity to call whichever witnesses he |wanted. The lawyer might have had good reasons for not call- ing them, believing their evi- dence might work against his client.

After that, it's up to Chief Justice Frederic Dorion of the Quebec Superior Court to as- sess more than 2,000,000 words of evidence by 65 witnesses since last Dec. 15 and report to the federal government. At least two lawyers were scheduled to sepak at the con- clusion of hearings. today.

At Friday's hearing, Jules Deschenes, counsel for the fed- eral government, and Norman Mathews, counsel! for the RCMP, each aimed verbal blasts at Ross Drouin, counsel for the Progressive Conserva- tive party. Mr. Deschenes accused Mr. Drouin of calumny against Jus- tice Minister Favreau for a statement by Mr, Drouin that the justice minister ventured into a_ field--criminal law-- about which he knew nothing.

THE OSHAWA TIMES, Seturdey, April 10,1965 3 MONTREAL (CP) -- The Montreal Labor Council (CLC) says it completely supports dis- ciplinary action taken against} an lementary school' teacher and two of his superiors for: teaching seventh - grade stu- dents that Hitler and Christ had similar attributes. Two other organizations, how- ever, said the penalties were too severe. Brother Rene Lahaie, the teacher, Brother Hector As- selin, the school principal, and Antonio Girard, supervisor of the school district involved, were either suspended or given new assignments by the Mont- Labor Backs Of 'Hitler-Great' Teacher Disciplining sion following investigation of Brother Lahaie's teaching methods at an east - end elementary school. Brother Lahaie decorated the front of his classroom with a picture of Hitler and a swastika on one side, and a portrait of Christ and a crucifix, on the other. These symbols formed part of his teaching thesis that Hit- ler and Christ had many com- mon characteristics, although one used them for evil and the other for good, Brother Lahaie also organ- ized his students according to the rankings used by Hitler's real Catholic school commis- SS Corps. Mr. Mathews also lained of a "despicable smear cam- paign" by some newspaper edi- torials and cartoons to blame the RCMP for Rivard's escape. The Mounties had had nothing to do with guarding Rivard. The only possible charges would be of attempted bribery against Denis, which would be thrown out of court, or of con- spiracy to obstruct justice against Denis, Liberal organ- izer Guy Masson, murder sus- pect Robert Gignac, Mrs. Ri- vard and Liberal MP Guy Rou- leau.
