Red Purge Will Go On PEKING (Reuters) -- China's Communist leadership made clear today that the big party purge will continue and it warned lukewarm supporters of the Mao Tse-tung line to correct their errors, The warning was contained in an editorial published by Red Flag, organ of the party's cen- tral committee, and reproduced on other newspaper front pages today, "A great deal of work re- | s 'mains to be done before the evil influence of the bourgeois reac- tionary line is swept away," the editorial said. It extolled the role of the rev- olutionary masses in the "great jproletarian cultural revolution" TORONTO (CP)--A re-exam: ination of Ontario's spending programs must be made be- cause of the small return the province got at last week's fed. eral-provincial conference, Pre- mier Robarts said Tuesday, The premier was speaking to the closing banquet of the an- nual meeting of the Ontario Progressive Conservative Asso- clation, He said the re-exami- nation is already under way. Mr, Robarts said the federal vernment offers of increased ancial resources to the prov- inces are "little more than a hoax" and added Ontario will press again for more money, "In the meantime," he said, "we are proceeding with a re- examination of all the spending programs of the government. premier said that bde- cause the interim tax-sharing agreement reached in Ottawa last week was for two rather than five years, "the negotia- sitions will continue in a rela- tively short time and we will be able to press our point of view when the next settlement needs to be made," DROPPED PROMISE He said Ottawa reneged on its promise of massive new sup- port for higher education, On- Ottawa Financial Offers ' Criticized By Robarts higher education because it will have to spend $200,000,000 in capital programs for universi- ties next year and ¥$195,000,000 for operating expenses, "Instead of giving the anticl- pated help, the federal govern: ment failed to come forward with anything like the financial assistance needed," Mr. Robarts said the federal- provincial tax structure coms mittee showed that provinces and municipalities would face a combined deficit of $2,400,000,. 000 by 1970 while the federal government would enjoy a sur. plus of between $300,000,000 and $700,000,000, "It is Ontario's contention that these figures clearly show that there must be a major re- distribution of the tax fields and that this should be in favor of the provinces." The Conservative delegates wound up their annual meeting with the atack on federal Libers al policies and a steady avoid. ance of open discussion of their own national party leadership. Reports persisted; however, that despite a convention ban ot topics involving the national Conservative leadership the Camp-Maloney attle for the party presidency ran the gamut of backroom and hallway de- tario needed more aid for bate, Camp-Maloney Battle Rages, | Leadership Topic Under Ban pry sors ge - ' THREE BEAUTIES Martha Frankfurter, Miss Oshawa (upper right) poses with two beauties among the 26 contestants for the Miss Canada title.

Prime Minister Wilson told an unruly House of Commons Tues day that Attorney-General Sir Elwyn Jones was "abundantly justified" in stating last week and broadcasters might be liable to contempt charges by commenting on the Aberfan Slag-heap stide that killed 147 persons Oct. 21. A judicial tri- bunal is investigating the disas- te Press Newspapers return teday to editorial attack against the gov ernment's alleged attempt to "gag" @ free- press. The Sun criticizes the sweep- ing nature of the attorney-gen- eral's statement and says Wil- son's comment contained "more heat than light." The Daily Telegraph says the government has done nothing to allay fears that it is "seek- ing to- stretch the law on its own authority." The Daily Sketch says "doubts linger: about whether the government is try- ing to suppress comment." The controversy boiled up when Jones, commenting-on the establishment of the Aberfan in- quiry. under Lord Justice Ed- mund Davies, said it wonld be "highly undesirable that any comments should be made either in 'the press or on the radio or television on matters which it will be -the express function of the tribunal to in- vestigate." He added comment judged to be interfering in the tribunal's work might be cited for contempt Conservative Leader Edward Heath accused Jones in a week- end speech of attempting to "suppress news and stifle com: ment." Wilson used attacking tactics in defence of Jones Tuesday, denouncing as "'a gross and contemptible slur" suggestions that Jones was motivated by partisan politics Derek Marks, editor of The Daily Express, had linked the Jones statement to the fact that the national coal board--created by the post-war Labor govern: ment--is the authority respon- sible for the Aberfan slag heap. "Of course it is very annoying if the first of the major na- tionalized. industries is involved in an inquiry arising out of an immense tragedy at the very time when it is planned to ex- tend the area of nationaliza- ration," Marks wrote Tuesday. "Rut that is no reason to attempt to threaten the press : Wilson argued Jones had sim- ply been reminding newspapers and broadcasters of the laws of contempt so that issues before the' Aberfan inquiry would not be prejudged nor potential wit- nesses influenced or embar- ra Terry Nugent, Conservative MP for Edmonton Strathcona, and himself.
