(CP Wirephoto) | GOVERNMENT WOULD ADOP "0 CANADA" AS OUR ANTHEM OTTAWA (CP) -- The gov- erment will make another at- tempt, on the eve of the cen- tennial of Confederation, to have © Canada adopted as the national anthem. The throne speech, as it did last year, also proposes God Save the Queen as the royal anthem in Canada A Liberal promise in the 1963 election cagfpaign was to propose a distinctive Cana- dian anthem within two years of taking office, The dead- line expired last April 22. But with the centennial year 11 months away, and the gov- ernment evidently trying to instill a sense of unity among Canadians, vigorous efforts to adopt an anthem are expected in this session. There were bitter debates in the Commons in 1964 on which English and French verions of O Canada's lyrics should be used. A government resolution on the two anthems was intro- duced May 28, 1964, but was sidetracked by a 33-day battle on a resolution for the maple leaf flag. The flag was adopted and finally flown last February. MENTIONED IN '65 Reference to the anthems was made in the speech from the throne last year but wasn't debated during the session In neither speech has it been specified which version of O Canada lyrics will be proposed The tune was composed in 1880 by Calixta Lavallee as a patriotic march to be played were written in 1908 by at a French-Canadian cultural meeting held that year in Que- bec City. The opening bars bear some resemblance to the Priests' March in Mozart's Magic Flute. | The French' words were written the same year by Mr. Justice Sir Adolphe - Basile Routhier of Quebec's Superior Court Sir Adolphe's lyrics referred to the Cross and the St. Law- rence River. Different English lyrics Robert Stanley Weir, another. Quebec Superior Court justice As dozens of other English ver- sions died out, it gradually be- came accepted across Canada MAY GO TO COMMITTEE A government spokesman said Tuesday the proposal for the two anthems could be sent to a special House committee where the dispute over lyrics could be thrashed out. Conservative MPs argued in the 1964 session that the French and English lyrics should be literal translations rather than poems of different inspiration. A private member's bill by Perry Rayn (L---Toronto Spa- dina) proposed adoption of the Routhier and Weir versions but was talked out and died on the order paper. The reference to God Save the Queen as the royal anthem is expected to draw fire from the nine Creditiste MPs whose argument has been that-Can- ada can't adopt the national anthem of another country. s Ottawa Would Cling To Constitutional : Powers OTTAWA (CP)--The federal!) government... pledged Tuesday its determination to retain con trol of all its constitutional re- sponsibilities At the same time. the throne épeech said, the federal govern-| ment fully respects the rights of the provinces a The speech indicated a firm government stand on questions | involving -its own constitutional responsibilities. 'While respect- ing fully the responsibilities. of the provinces, the government is equally resolved to maintain the constitutional responsibili- | ties of the federal authority." The question of federal-prov- incial relations has been billed as one of the most crucial is- sues facing the new Parliament Opposition members have charged the Libera! government with allowing federal powers to be whittled away. This was also a contentious issue in the last Parliament The nment prepared throne speech read by Gover- nor-General Vanier at the open ing of the new session, said that "in its relations with the prov- inces, my government is guided by the conviction that Canadian federalism must draw its vital ity and strength from the mu- tual respect an! co-operation the national and provincial goy ernments It went on to say that "the Canadian people' can be well served by their political institu- tions only if each element our federal system is cover of | in| able to} "BLITHE SPIRIT" by Noel Coward directed by MARGOT SAMUEL presented by BOMANVILLE DRAMA CLUB Bowmanville Town Holl JAN, 20-21-22 8:00 P.M Adults $1.00 Students 8% act effectively within its consti-| 'Hike Seen In Aid To Universities OTTAWA {CP)--A substantial increase in federal financial aid to universities for the 1966-67 academic year will be proposed to Parliament this session, the throne speech said Tuesday, This 'initial response" to the "acute financial difficulties" faced by universities and col- leges would be followed up with |annually.

The bank act, the main leg- lislation on which the banking system operates in Canada and which gives the eight chartered banks their charters, is already two years overdue for its decen- nial revision. A draft revision was submitted to Parliament last year and now even that draw is being revised. A government official said that one of the first items to be submitted to the new session will be an extension of the pre- sent act, probably to the end of this year, to enable Parliament to work at the revision without deadline pressures. He said the new revision will be different from the one sub mitted last session, and that recommendations of a_ royal commission which made a two year study of the field will be taken "'fully into account."
