Mr, Assaly attempted to dem- onstrate that Mr... Lamontagne had given contradictory pieces of testimony about his allegation that Denis, former, executive as- sistant to the federal immigra- tion minister, offered him $20,- 000 July 14, 1964, in the Lucien Rivard affair. Mr, Lamontagne, a Montreal lawyer, maintained at one point that he may have forgotten some details of his meeting with Denis but "one is not likely to dian and United States govern- ments for July 14, 1964, included time drinking whisky with Denis.

North Dakotans GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP)-- North Dakotans--battling flood waters in the eastern portion of the state--today cast a wary eye west where a March storm was developing. The U.S. weather bureau is- sued stockmen's warnings for western North Dakota and con- tinued them for the entire state today. Heavy snow--up to six inches in the mountains and four inches at lower elevations--was pre- dicted for eastern Montana.

Two dikes have been almost completed in park areas north and south of the Grand Forks business district. Their total length is 5,800 feet. They are formed of gravel, cov- ered with plastic and girded with sandbags. Officials said a total of 275,000 sandbags have been laid so far.
