P. Vivian (PC--~Dur- ham), foruier Ontario health minister and professor of medi- cine at McGill University. The headaches would rest on the shoulders of hospital administra- tors, he told the Commons Tues day. Dr, Vivian said some of the problems will rest on the fact | that the public, paying insurance premiums, will feel entitled to any hospital service at any time It will not be possible to do this, he said. | In fact admittance to hospitals woul? be only at the request of the physician and would be granted only where there is room Another problem would be a distribution of hospital beds, bal- ancing the number available for acute diseases and the number required for long-term patients, the chronically ill, convalescents and the like, As a physician, he said he fully supports health insurance be- cause the cost of hospital serv- ices has risen beyond the capa- city of many sick people to pay. National hospital insurance is long overdue, he said, referring to plans he announced in 1943 in the Ontario legislature for pro- vincial payment of public ward care through either an insurance plan or out of provincial govern. ment revenues. Dr. Vivian said that apart from hospital overcrowding, the prob- lems of staff shortages, training and general "medical house-keep- ing" are difficult "I make a plea to the public {to control its demands on serv- fces until hospitals are able to meet them in an ordinary and safe way." Referring to local agricultural programs in Durham, Dr. Vivian, sald farmers are deeply con-| cerned by the fact that some] Canadian canneries are being! bought by United States interests and closed down or operated be- low eapacity.

Porter, chairman of the United States! earth satellite panel. Porter announced that the U.S, Navy's second satellite reached a peak altitude of about 2,000 miles before it fell back to earth, "While no was reached, the Vanguard's scientific package reached a great altitude and it is expected that the large quantity of telemetric data which was received from the 20-inch sphere will provide much valuable sci- entific information," Porter said. Radio signals received at An. tigua, British West Indies, indi- cated that the satellite "assumed an arc-like upward attitude." Porter said this sharp angle prevailed as the satellite sped down-range. Initial calculations, he said, fixed its greatest height at 2,000 miles. 2 ment, General Speeds Towards Capital PARIS (AP)--Gen.

Socialist Guy Mollet, right-wing independent Antoine Pinay and Pierre - Henri Teitgen of the Mouvement Republican Populaire had been with the president for an hour and a quarter, The three men had been ealled in .by Coty presumably to get agreement on a successor to Premier Plerre Pflimlin, who re- signed in the early morning hours at the height of the rebellion-in- duced political confusion in v'rance, De Gaulle left his home at Colombey-les - Deux-Eglises 150 miles from Paris accompanied only by an aide. There was no announcement of his destination or purpose of his trip, TALKED WITH forming a government withoud being legally asked, the assembly rebuffed him by giving Pflimlin a 408-t0-165 vote of support, But the Conservative Independs ets deserted the government om the vote and the party's three ministers quit the cabinet. Pflime lin, red-eyed from day-and-night efforts to save his government from Gaullists in Algeria and Corsica, then met with the res mainder of his cabinet and huge ried to see Coty at 3 am, WEAKENS GOVERNMENT Pflimlin said the defection of the Independents had weakened the government at a crucial mos ment, and he could not go on. The president refused to let him step aside until a new premier was ready to take over, seeking to avoid, a power vacuum while Franfe is threatened with civil strife, Pflimlin accepted the comproms ise and Coty began thlking with political leaders. The president said he hoped to be able to namg a candidate to succeed Pflimlin by evening, ¥ Coty decided not to call dg Gaulle, the best guess was thas he would ask Socialist Guy Mole let to try to form a government, Mollet holds France's post-war record for length of office as premier, The outcome was hopefully awaited in Alglers, where the crisis was touched off May 13 hy a military - civilian seizure of power in defiance of Paris.
