Israel to Jerusalem from Tel Aviv after promising to do so duringthe campaign The embassy promise had won Toronto Jewish votes in the May 22 federal election but raised the wrath of the Aral community including financial retaliation down on Canada once Clark was in power It was one of three key elec tion promises he broke and that Opposition MPs continually cashed in on as they sought to portray the prime minister man who doesnt keep his word and the Conservatives as party without leader promise of $2billion per sonal income tax cut was di Ched and interest rates have been allowed to rise four times despite Conservative pledged to have them lowered WITH CONSENT Two months after the election the trendsetting Bank of Can ada rate was lifted to 113 per cent from 111 per cent with Fi nance Minister John Crosbies consent The rate climbed Sept 10 to 121 per cent Oct to 13 per cent and Oct 23 to 14 per cent Just days ago Clark in slip of the tongue in the Commons said he planned to tax oil com panies 100 per cent of additional revenues resulting from new price increases That drove oil stocks down by 114 points within minutes prompting scramble among prime ministerial staff to make clear it was an accidental state ment and that no such tax was planned fourth key Conservative campaign platform that has been repeatedly and widely criticized is the plan to dismantle PietroCanada the stateowned oil company While many critics ranging from New Democrats and Lil erals to business and labor on ganizations would like Clark to reverse that plan he has clung to it Clark appointed study group to decide exactly how the oil company could be disbanded The group recommended in preliminary report the government give away free shares to the public HRISTIA SON MINERA LS 204IIER ST 11 ItRIk

administration Finance Minister John Crosbie said immediately fol lowing the Commons vote the 18 centsagallon increase in gaso line prices announced Tuesday would remain in effect But there was some doubt among constitutional experts and opposition MP5 as to the le gality of the move Meanwhile Energy Minister Ray Hnatyshyn said in an inter view the government remained committed to oil price in creases of $4 barrel in 1980 But he conceded the measures would not likely come into effect until after the outcome of CONFERENCE CANCELLED federalprovincial first ministers conference set for Monday
