(CP)--The $10,000 payoff accusation against Yvon Dupuis, 38-year- old ex-minister in the federal cabinet, goes to a jury this fall despite a last - minute effort © Tuesday to have the case thrown out. The final defence attempt to prevent trial was Mr. Dupuis' voluntary statement, a rarely- used Quebec procedure for hearing evidence that a case be quashed following inary hearing. It put the spotlight on two men--the accuser of the for- mer minister without portfolio and a figure described by a witness as a sort of "Don Quixote" in the case. The is Roch Deslaur- fers of St. Johns, who says he paid Mr. Dupuis $10,000 in 1961 t + headed "To the gentleman from to put his weight behind an ap- plication to the provincial gov- ernment for the right to build a racetrack near this city 25) miles southeast of Montreal. He did not testify Tuesday, but he ended the day facing a private complaint of falsifying a document and was sum- monsed to appear July 12 for arraignment. Pressing the charge that Mr. Deslauriers had falsely swear he saw the money chaftge hands is Real Rousseau of Montreal. DESCRIBE HIM Mr. Rousseau was cast as the "Don Quixote' -- a réal estate man who arranged, one of his U.S. Sends More Marines To Swell Force To 60,000 SAIGON (AP) -- Some 3,400)Viet Cong broke off the attack S. f marines landed at two/ after helicopters began strafing points in central Viet Nam to-|the area. YVON DUPUIS employees testified, for Mr. Deslauriers to swear an affida- vit. in December, 1964, clearing Mr. Dupuis of having de- manded the money for himself. Maurice d'Hont, called by the defence, said under Crown questioning that though he ad- ministered Mr. Deslauriers' oath, he "didn't believe a }word" of the part of the state- jment which said the $10,000 was provided merely as a} "proof of solvency." "I didn't like the smell of the | affair," said Mr. d'Hont, who is an oath-taking court commis- sioner as well as Mr. Rous- seau's sales manager. He added that he told this to his boss in a memorandum La Mancha"--the home town of the legendary knight-errant who took a windmill for his enemy. The suburb of which Mr. Rous- seau is founder and mayor is called Windmill point. Mr. Dupuis resigned from the cabinet Jan, 26 at Prime Minis- ter Pearson's request. Three charges were subsequently brought against him, alleging he asked and got $10,000 in connection with the fruitless bid for a charter to set up a track with betting facilities at St. Luc, Que., near St. Johns in the riding of St. Jean-Iber- _ Ville-Napierville, for which Mr. Dupuis still sits. PRESENTS THREE His lawyer, Raymond Daoust of Montreal, presented Mr. d'Hont and two other witnesses Tuesday, but after hearing them, Magistrate Andre Reg- nier stuck to his decision to commit Mr. Dupuis to the St. Johns fall assizes. He set bail at $800 in property. The other witnesses were re- porters who testified that Mr. Deslauriers told them in inter- views he paid the money as "proof of solvency." Most of the hearing was taken up with Mr. d'Hont's account of his contact with the case. He said Mr. Deslauriers appeared to swear willingly to the state- ment that he handed the money over, but purely to prove his solvency. But several things about the document troubled him, Mr. d'Hont said, mainly the whole idea of dealing in cash en- velopes rather than a cheque.

Asked why he took no receipt for it, the MP re- plied: "I know Mr. Earl well enough," Mr. d'Hont testified. When the witness drew a folder from his briefcase to consult notes before answering a question, Crown prosecutor Jean Bienvenue asked that the notes be produced as court ex- hibits. The defence objected, but Judge Regnier ruled pertin- ent documents could be pro- duced, and the court recessed to select these.

Mr. Lamontagne was acting for the U.S. government in ex- tradition proceedings against Rivard, a narcotics suspect. The Social Credit MP for Red Deer said Prime Minister Pear- son is justified in wanting to keep former justice minister Guy Favreau in the cabinet.

Many gas stations which did re-open were persuaded to close by members of the strik- ing Gasoline Retailers Fratern- ity and violence broke out in some areas. At Cowansville, 45 miles the attack said he would open as usual at 6 a.m, today, The strike started when the fraternity, which claims to rep- resent 1,500 of the 8,000 retail- ers in Quebec, asked the oil companies for two cents more for each gallon of gas sold, and station rentals based on gaso- line sold rather than locations, The strike got under way slowly Tuesday with half of southeast of Montreal, 50 car loads of GRF supporters fought a pitched battle with police when they marched on the one service station still open there.

Chaplin told his foreman: "No one told me to look out for a cable." Merchants afd European 'embassies in London had to use telex for their messages. The line was not expected to be fully repaired until to- day. 'Spreads Over Quebec Montreal Island's 850 operators remaining open. Fraternity members roamed the island in cars and persuaded rebel oper- ators to join the strike. Police said they received hun- dreds of calls Tuesday from station operators complaining about harassment, but said they couldn't do anything about it. There have been reports of slashed pump lines, broken win- dows and fights. The favorite form of persuas- ion was for GRF members to drive into an open station, or- der 25 or 50 cents worth of gas, and demand free service such as air and water. The gasoline purchased would then be paid for with a $50 or $100 bill. Vincent Valenti, strike direc- tor for the fraternity, estimated Tuesday night "about 95 per cent" of Montreal's 850 service stations would be closed today. SOME STAY OPEN "We are letting about 15 sta- tions stay open 24 hours a day to handle vehicles such as am- bulances, doctors cars and taxis --the public will not be served." One death has been attri- buted indirectly to the strike. A 13-year-old 'boy was killed when gasoline stored in the basement of his parents' home as an emergency supply ex ploded Tuesday. In Quebec City, Labor Minis- ter Carrier Fortin said the Que- bec Labor Code does not pro- vide for government interven- tion in a dispute between "busi- nessmen."" Justice Minister Claude Wag- ner, commenting on intimida- tion of operators to close their stations, said it wasup to mu]: nicipal police to take the neces- sary measure to prevent such]: intimidation of retailers staying open.
