6 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Mondey, May 15, 1967 HON. LIONEL CHEV- RIER, Canada's commis- sioner, - general for visits of heads of state during Expo's 183-day run, takes care of visitors to Canada. Though he has a staff of 86, there'll be no vacation for the busy Mr. Chevrier until after the October closing date. --CP Wirephoto Pilkey Claims Wages Chasing Prices Trend Clifford Pilkey, president of the Oshawa and District Labor : Council, told a group of Local ' 218 of the Canadian Union of Public Employees members that wages are not the cause of higher prices but rather that * wages are chasing prices. He said Oshawa people are " limited by the cost-of-living stan- dard and that all money earned, follows the price increases. He . called for government legisla- cope with the rising cost of liv- ing. Mr. Pilkey, Oshawa riding New Democratic Party candi- date, also suggested the need for workers to participate at the political level, saying that sec- tions of the Labor Relations Act have detrimental effects on col- lective bargaining programs. Mr. Pilkey also called for a government sponsored automo- bile insurance program and greater assistance to municipal governments by the senior levels + tion to institute measures to of government. New Brunswick To Vote 746 Offices To Fill FREDERICTON (CP) -- New Brunswickers vote June 12 to choose at least 746 persons to fill public office. This will mark the first occa- sion in which the provincial electorate has been called upon to make such a wide selection of favorites at one election. It is the first election being carried out under the provisions of the new Municipalities Act, which specifies that candidates for school boards and municipal councils are to be named at the same election. Municipal electoral officer J. Donald Whalen says that resi- local school board and voters living in incorporated cities, towns and villages will name a mayor and eight aldermen. The city of Saint John will elect a mayor and 12 aldermen while Fredericton, Edmundston, Campbellton, Bathurst and Moncton will vote for the mayor and eight aldermanic candi- dates. More than 300,000 people will be eligible to vote. Procedures for conducting a province-wide enumeration of voters have been outlined for deputy muni- cipal electoral officers and the enumerations are expected to get under way shortly. Nomina- dents in all areas of the prov- ince will name trustees to the tion day for all offices is May UNOFFICIAL ROYALTY GREETER MONTREAL (CP) -- On the highly - polished desk of the Montreal office of Lionel Chev- rier stands a brand-new copy of the 1967 parliamentary guide. But if the white-haired, 64- year-old former Liberal cabinet minister has any plans for re- entering the political arena af- ter he spends his six-month stint as his country's unofficial greeter of royalty and heads of state, he's not saying. In an interview Friday, he said of his after-expo plans: "I think I would like to go back to private life in Montreal --but anything could happen." Mr. Chevrier went to London in 1964 as high commissioner for Canada and returned to Montreal April 4 to take over his new post as ambassador and commissioner-general . for visits of heads of state. His official duty is to greet the 60-odd heads of state slated to arrive during Expo's 183-day run, meeting them at the air- port or-train terminal, ensuring that they are accommodated, their luggage seen to, and in his capacity as "unofficial wel- , comer". seeing that things in general go smoothly while they are here. WELCOME UNOFFICIAL "I give the unofficial welcome to Canada," he said. "Royalty is officially greeted. in Ottawa by the Governor-General and heads of state by the prime minister." Mr. Chevrier directs a staff of 80 in the task of settling such details as visiting dignitaries' diets and blood groups. A giant board on one wall of the im- promptu 'war room" in his of- AT BIG EXPO FAR/ Surprises Dime a Dozen fice suite lists times and places where each visitor should be and when. In 28 years in and out of. the House of Commons, Mr. Chev- rier represented Stormont, a constituency in his birth-place of Cornwall, and Montreal-Lau- rier, was transport minister between 1945 and 1954, became president of the St. Lawrence Seaway Authority between 1954 and 1957 and was justice min- ister for a year in 1963-64. Proud of his part im helping to bring about the $1,000,000,000 seaway, he admits to having had doubts about both the seaway" and Expo. ' "There were a lot of crepe- hangers up in Ottawa at these times and many of us were apprehensive about the fate of both ventures but they both are tremendously successful. By CY FOX MONTREAL (CP)--At Expo 67 surprises are a dime a dozen --including cows that turn out to be dummies. The double-takes are at the Western Canada pavilion, where what seem to be the heads of live cows mooning around a pen are in fact mechanically-mani- pulated and stuffed. Pavilion manager William Thorsell of Edmonton said Fri- day night one recent visitor looked into the pen, popped over to the' grain-and-grass exhibit next door and came back with a fistful of food' for what he thought were hungry cattle. The pavilion -- which is an Expo showcase for British Co- lumbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba--has been aver- aging between 7,000 and 8,000: visitors a day, with as many as 10,000 on Saturdays and Sun- days. It's full of vivid simulations of real Western phenomena, includ- ing a compartment elevator that gives off all the noises and movements of an elevator plunging down a mine shaft. Mr. Thorsell said some visit- ors are afraid to enter the "ele- vator," or refuse to do so on grounds they might be hurt by the blasting they assume to be going on in the "mine" below. The "mine shaft" into which visitors are taken after their simulated descent is in actual- ity a surface - level corridor which ultimately leads to the site of the "'cow-pen." One visitor threatened to tell Chevrier Vague About Future At Big Fair In Montreal the SPCA about the pavilion's keeping cows 3,000 feet below ground, the pavilion manager said. The Western structure's top, 40 feet off the ground, is open so as to accommodate 30-foot fir trees that make up part of one exhibit.

G. H. B, Davis, a law lec- turer at London colleges, was appointed Friday night as sec- retary-treasurer of the $5,250,- 000 fund just when Aberfan parents were undergoing new tribulations. The fund has been invested, bringing an interest of $6,000 a week. Davis, 54, will be expected to hasten a decision on the ulti- 'mate use of the fund and speed up the rate of payments to fam- ilies of victims of the disaster in which 144 persons, including 116 children, died under a col- liery's sliding slag heap Oct. 21. The National Coal Board, which administers Britain's na- tionalized coal industry, ad- mitted blame in a 76-day judi- cial inquiry that ended late last month but a report is not ex- pected for months. One bereaved mother summed up feelings here when she told a reporter Monday she dreaded the day when the NCB would make compensation offers. This would seem to be placing a monetary value on the lives of children. Parents would re-live the agony of that black Friday, Oct. 21.

"T've had contributions from 42 So far only £150,000 has been paid out of the fund and some critics have said the vast pile of money could be Aberfan's second disaster. It might cause jealousies and ill-feeling here and in neighboring Merthyr Vale--the two villages have a population of about 4,000. Mayor Stanley Davies of Merthyr Tydfil, the borough in which this valley neighborhood is located, pointed out that the disposition of disaster funds is usually clearcut since bread- winners, such as miners, have been killed, and dependents and children are in need. Quick to Start... Quiet on the go! But children comprised by far the greater number of victims here, calling for prudence on the part of the 15-member fund management. | One project for which there seems general acceptance is a community centre that would be an example for all Wales and perhaps Britain. The mayor also hopes to see a children's hospital. But he stresses that the people will decide. : PRAISES CANADIANS | Davies, who initiated the fund, was staggered by the AND MARINA King St. E. at Townline -- 723-0211 Operote it with your finger-tips: Finger-tip Starting, Finger- tip Handling, Finger-tip Bag Attachment, Fingert-tip Height Adjustment. 6 response.

Chris Sullivan, spokesman for the parents' association, said a meeting will be held next week with solicitors present to discuss the offer. ; Villagers were generally sur- prised that the NCB made an offer before a report by the tri- bunal, headed by Lord Justice Edmund Davies, who was born in a neighboring town.

"Sir, we said, 'would you mind telling us why you own a Volks- wagen as well as a Rolls Royce?" From here on we'll quote Charlie.
