I changed from the cigarette to a pipe and I think that marked packages help others to cut down or 'stop their cigarette habit. Sometimes a little scare like MILLS CHARLES WILLIS this that stares you in the face is all that is needed." B. M. Zawadzki, 296 Huron St.: "No, I don't think so. It * isn't really going to do any good. It won't stop anyone. It is a habit that is difficult to overcome and I don't think that there are that many peopl who really want to stop smoking." Ivan_ Leadlay, Uxbridge: "I don't smoke myself, but I don't think that marking cigarette packages is going to stop anyone. . There was quite a scare a while ago Cigaret Smoking Warning 8B. M.

Rail Strike Effects Jolt Heavy Industry By THE CANADIAN PRESS Heavy industrial layoffs jolt Canada's economy today, the country's sixth day without rail transportation, while in Ottawa the Commons hastens to com- plete its study of the govern- ment's revised strike-ending leg- islation. The government revamped its bill late Wednesday night, shortly after the House began third. and final reading of the measure, by proposing that the 118,000 striking railway workers get an interim wage increase of 18 per cent for 1966 and 1967. This was the only amendment the strikers to go back to work and orders railway-union medi- ation talks to resume under threat of compulsory arbitra- tion. A major_industrial shutdown set for today is that of McKin- non Industries Ltd., a supplier of engines and parts to General Motors of Canada, McKinnon The bill originally proposed an interim eight - per - cent pay increase for 1966 alone. It came under. heavy fire both in and outside the Commons, and union leaders stressed repeatedly that the men were unlikely to re- sume work under such térms. to the bill, which still calls on Airliner Crashes Death Toll Rises LJUBLJANA, Y ugos!avia|which rim this prosperous and (AP)--A chartered British air-|modern capital of Slovenia.

They have decided to will their own eyes to the C. do-|an investigating commission to the crash site to seek the cause of the disaster. In the confusion of the crash there were conflicting reports whether the plane crashed while landing or while taking off on a return flight. But authorities confirmed that the crash oc- curred as the plane was coming in from London, two hours and 25 minutes after takeoff.

In Montreal, a Board of Tradé spokesman said he knew of no factories in the area already laying off men. But production was bound to slow down soon and layoffs would follow quickly. Concern for Canada's econ- omy was expressed in the United States as well. How long, asked the Washington Post editorially, can Canada "stand a strike which paralyses transportation and is said to cost $15,000,000 a day?"

The committee is moving closer to the deadline next spring for a new federal - provincial agree- ment on tax sharing.

These three' double as their own provincial treasurers. But it has been learned au- thoritatively that new premiers Alex Campbell of Prince Ed- ward Island and Daniel John- son of Quebec will come. So will premiers Stanfield of Nova Sco- tia, Robarts of Ontario and Manning of Alberta. Provincial elections in New- foundland Sept. 8 and British Columbia Sept. 12 have already caused a delay of several days in the date of the meeting and could affect the cast.

Finance Minister Sharp sought to correct this impres- sion Tuesday when he tabled a letter he had written to the pre- miers, It said action might have to be taken against inflation that would concern provincial gov- ernments as well as the federal government. "Such action might well have some bearing on the fiscal ar- rangements we will be discus- sing." OSHAWA HOME SHOW THURS., FRI., SAT., SEPT. 15th, 16th, 17th.
