2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, SATURDAY, September 18, 1968 IF RIVARD TESTIMONY TRUE, TOSS OUT THE 'BOOK' Revolution In Narcotics-Smuggling The first week of the earcotics trial of Lucien Rivard and three co-defend- ants brought out testimony in court--if true--that could make the underworld bosses rewrite the hook on dope smuggling, In the following story John LeBlanc gives a detailed report of the in- formers' disclosures. By JOHN LeBLANC LAREDO, Tex. (CP)--A jury has the weekend to mull over stories of big-time dealings and peanut.stand operations in the Informers' tales of carefree t French-Canadi bor- der runners, told at the smug- gling conspiracy trial of Lucien Rivard and three Montreal co- defendants enough to make narcotics over- lords rewrite the book on the this week, heroin trade. The United States government seeks to tie the Canadians into narcotics operations involving perhaps $200,000,000. international dope trade. The government closed its case Friday. Defence evidence is not expected to take more than a day, with the case going to the jury Tuesday.

Canada's average unemploy"| ment rate of 6% per cent, he said, constitutes Canada's greatest domestic problem and, coupled with higher American salaries, is pushing a heavy or of Canadian labor to the "Canada's migration to this country, which is even greater than Mexico's, will continue to mount,"' said the southern sen- ator in defending his proposal to impose--for the first time-- a limit on immigrants arriving).

Connally Fri- day turned down a defence mo- tion for directed acquittal ver- dicts after the prosecution brought in the last of its two dozen witnesses and 100-odd ex- hibits, including 76 pounds of heroin seized here in 1963, The defence faces the task of discrediting the stories of Roger Beauchemin, 33, a dapper for- mer waiter who says he pleaded with Rivard to let him in on the big money to pay off his debts, and Joseph Michel Caron, a former truck driver who said he turned to thievery but couldn't make enough to support his big family.

Russia last month bought 320,- 000 tons of Canadian wheat flour as part of a two-stage 222,000,- 000-bushel wheat order.
