The chance seemed. more remote after he had begun by saying he wholeheartedly supported the bill. But in a few minutes there was an uproar. Labor Minister Michael Starr, MP for Ontario County, who had nurried to the Chamber when the bill came up for discussion, tried to interrupt Mr. Chevrier on a question of privilege but was ruled out of order by the ; Speaker. 3 i Mr. Starr had tried to rebutt a LIONEL CHEVRIER statement by Mr, Chevrier that| Oshawa, and all the ports on the{ Conservatives all over the Si.

Meantime, the 15-nation NATO permanent council called an em- ergency session tomorrow to dis- cuss what could he salvaged from the summit wreckage. The Western Big Three met in the Elysee Palace tonight to take stock of the situation. This morning, Khrushchev paid farewell calls on de Gaulle and Macmillan but deliberately snubbed Eisenhower. AT CAMP DAVID Khrushchev said he almost took up the issue of spy flights with President Eisenhower when they met at Camp David last Septem- ber. He said Eisenhower spoke of him as friend and asked to be called friend. But, knowing of the overflights of Soviet territory, Khrushchev continued, "I thought tliere was something fishy about this friend." Khrushchev accused the presi- dent of subterfuge in declaring |that the flights over Russia have been called off and would not be resumed. Eisenh admitted to him in the summit meeting to- day, he said, that the next presi- dent would have to make his own decision on the issue.

This is no time for the 'fast draw' or for throw ing away our aminunition in diplomacy or defence." Hazen Argue, CCF leader in the Commons, described the summit failure as a great tragedy for all mankind and said the United Na- tions is the only organization through which the world "may even yet be brought to its senses." "Canada, I am sure, will sup- port with one voice every effort by Secretary-General Dag Ham- marskjold to salvage the peace of the world," he said in a state- ment.
