The meeting also could signal the start of final negotiations at Ford Motor Company.

Director William Thomson of| Unmitigated Liar TORONTO (CP)--Lawyers for two figures in the Mimico build- ing inquiry Friday turned their fire on witnesses who had testi- fied earlier against their clients. Lawyer Sanford World termed Robert Walton, spokesman for the Mimico Ratepayers' Asso- ciation which initiated the in- quiry, "The most unmitigated liar who ever raised a Bible in the witness box." Mr. World, counsel for Build- ing Inspector Jack Book, said witnesses who testified on alle- gations of bribes accepted by Mr. Book had established a rec- ord for "unreliability and eva- siveness." Judge Ambrose Shea is hear- ing final arguments of lawyers in the inquiry. He adjourned the inquiry following Friday's testi- {mony. It is expected to resume in about 10 days. Mr. World called Walton's affi- davit that Book had demanded a bribe from him 'a malevolent remarkable for what it omits and what it distorts."

It is in this connection that the problem of sounding out Moscow on pos- sible negotiations b:comes cru- cial. Russia's demand for some kind of East German control over Berlin access routes, for example, would be an issue in any negotiations -- and one on which the Western powers in- tend not to disclose their bar- gaining position in advance. The question of whether there are to be negotiations is under discussion between U.S. State Secretary Rusk and Soviet For- eign Minister Andrei Gromykc {here in New York.

Grewe said Friday he would agree with Prime Minister Dief- enbaker's suggestion to give Berlin an international status only if it would mean the trans- fer of the United Nations head- quarters to that divided city. It would also be necessary for East Gert} to vacate its cap- ital of East Berlin, he added. Diefenbaker suggested in a re- cent House of Commons speech that Berlin be given an interna- tional status as a way of set- 'ling the East - West crisis over 'he city.

It was the town's medical of- ficer of health who ordered the theatre closed, Mr. World said, yet he was not mentioned in the affidavit. Charles Dubin, summing up for his client realtor Arthur Iamarino, said "unsuccessful real-estate men and malcontents used this inquiry to throw alle- gations and accusations that are completely unfounded at Mr. Iamarino." He described as "sinister" Jo- |seph Moher's testimony imply- {ing Iamarino had paid Book $5,000 to obtain building permits for property he sold. He said Moher knew when he testified that the money was for sewers and was perfectly legal. Mr. Dubin said testimony |against Iamarino by two real estate salesmen was "gossip, Inot facts."

Green shied away from the United States position outlined by State Secretary Dean Rusk Friday that an 'outstaiding world leader" be placed in the interim job. "I wouldn't have put it quite like that," Green said. The suc-| cessor need come from nowhere else than within the UN. General debate -- A proce- dure to the addresses in reply to the speech from the throne in Parliament -- opened Friday and showed the death of Ham- marskjold and the Berlin crisis the two 1p. issues troubled 'world leaders. Japanese Foreign Minister Zentaro Kosaka told the assem- {bly his country could not sup- port the Soviet troika plan, which proposes representative of the Communists, Western and neutral countries to run the UN with veto powers. "Such a system would bring into the key position in the United Nations conflict that ex- ist between different political philosophies and systems, para- lyze the functions of the secre- tariat and destroy the very basis of its international neutral- ity." HIDDEN REPORT DEBATE ASKED OTTAWA (CP) -- Liberal MP Lionel Chevrier today sought a special Commons debate on an alleged 'hid- den report" revealing a manpower waste in the armed forces. Mr. Chevrier moved to suspend regular business to discuss what he said was Defence Minister Harkness' failure to disclose during de- fence department estimates last week a finance depart- ment report that "thousands of men" were being wasted in the navy, army and air force. Air F orce, Army Display Mobility OTTAWA (CP) -- The army and RCAF have demonstrated {more dramatically than ever before how swiftly and surely they can move in an emer- gency. The emergency in this 'case was the Newfoundland forest fires. But the military implica- tions of this operation, which ends this weekend, are obvious. One month ago Sunday, Pre- mier Smallwood of Newfound- land asked for federal help to fight the island's inferno of for- est flame. At 5:30 p.m. Aug. 24, Lt.-Gen. S. F. Clark, chief of the army general staff, telephoned East- ern Command headquarters at Halifax and ordered the dis- patch of 200 troops to Gander, Nfld. At the same time, Maj. Gen. J. V. Allard, vice-chief of staff, telephoned Camp Gatetown, N.B., to say that RCAF planes {would be converging on Freder- licton in three hours. Still at the same time, Air Marshal Hugh Campbell, chief of air staff, told Air Transport Command at Trenton, to get planes to Fredericton for an air- lift of troops, equipment and ve- hicles to Gander. At 10:30 p.m., five hours later, the first troops were airborne for Gander. By 4:30 the next morning, two North Stars and two C-119 Flying Boxcars from Trenton and three C-109s from Downsview, Ont,, had deposited 200 troops, three trucks, two jeeps, two trailers and 8,715 pounds of cargo at Gander. At Camp Gagetown, staff had to be called in from off-duty hours. Some 130 recruits were found still on their training area and were fed and bundled off to the airport 14 miles away. Some men on leave heard the news by radio and volunteered for firefighting. Depots were opened for supplies. Nude Swimmer Ruled Innocent SAN MATEO, Calif.

HOWARD GREEN Accuses UN Of Breaking Cease-Fire ELIZABETH VILLE, The| Congo (Reuters) -- President Moise Tshombe accused the United Nations Friday night of agreement. He told a press conference the UN had been moving troops into the town and in front of the post office, a UN stronghold in the Katanga fighting, contrary to a cease - fire agreement signed Wednesday. He added: "At the airport there have been a lot of land- ings and we do mot think they are all concerned with food- stuffs." Replying to a question about possible reconciliation with the UN, Tshombe said: 'Those re- sponsible for the UN aggression must be punished first." He demanded to know the names of the UN members of the joint cease-fire commission and denied statements made by Conor O'Brien, chief UN repre- sentative here, that the Katan- gans refused permission for food to be supplied to the camp out- side Elisabethville housing Ba- Gives Conditions For Berlin Plan MOSCOW -- Premier Khrush- chev said Friday the threat of war is perhaps greater now than it has been at any time since the second world war, and de- clared Russia ready to negoti- ate for peace at any time or place and at any level. Khrushchev blamed the West for world tension and said any talks between him and President can officials said today they are advising West German leaders to face up to the existence of the East German Communist state. But an American mission spokesman said there have been no official announcements of this new American attitude. The spokesman emphasized that refusal to grant the East Germans control of allied ac- cess to Berlin remains firm Western policy. News reports hinting at a pos- sible Western de facto recogni- tion of East Germany surprised and upset West Germans. The Berlin newspaper Der Tagesspiegel linked these re- ports to a background meeting held for newspaper men Friday by Gen. Lucius D. Clay, Presi- dent Kennedy's special envoy to Berlin. In New York, the Co- lumbia Broadcasting System said it was identifying Clay as the source of such stories. West German policy always has been based on the principle that East Germany does not ex- ist as a state and the Communist administration there is illegal. This also has been the policy of Germany's Western allies. HERE TO STAY The American officials said the people of West Germany and Berlin should now realize that the Communist regime in East Germany is here to stay, at least for some years. The same sources say the East Germans may eventually have to be given some form of check on civilian use of the Western air corridors between Berlin and West Germany. The East Germans already control all civilian surface movements into Berlin. The U.S. mission in Berlin is- sued a terse statement after re- ports of a new American atti- tude created a furore among West German politicians and commentators. The statement said: "'An official spokesman of the U.S. mission, in referring to re- cent news dispatches from Ber- lin, stated today that there have been no statements made relat- ing to any changes in American policy--which policy has never recognized any right of control or superivision by East Ger- mans of the air corridors or allied access to Berlin." In the official jargon of West Berlin, '"'allied access" means access for the American, British and French occupation forces in Berlin--not for German and for- eign civilian travellers. The statement noticeably omitted any reference to the re- ported change of mind in the U.S. government concerning de facto recognition of East Ger- NEW U.S. VIEW ON E.

American officials indi- cated Friday night the United States might be willing to con- sider such a proposal of it in- volved both East and West Ber- lin West Germans were reported highly critical also of this Amer- ican position. In Bonn, a spokesman for Chancellor Konrad Adenauer's Christian Democratic Party de- clined comment, claiming the source for the report on an al- leged change in U.S. policy was "too vague and not official so far as we are concerned." The independent newspaper Der Tagesspiegel linked the statements to a background meeting held for newspaper men Friday by Gen. Lucius D. Clay, President Kennedy's new envoy to West Berlin. Attempt To Seize Power Doubted ALGIERS -- French officials said today they doubt the new appeal for demonstrations by the right-wing secret army or- ganization will lead to a new attempt to seize power. = The horn-honkong and pan banging response by thousands of European settlers Friday night indicated that some of the population would follow orders by the underground leaders. But officials said the French Army now is thoroughly loyal to the de Gaulle regime. They believe the campaign is aimed more at keeping up an awareness of the Algerian crisis than at organizing a march on the government headquarters. Armored cars and water can- nons blocking the main street moved quickly Friday night un- der government orders to put down demonstrations by either side of the Algerian conflict. Second Australian Expert Kidnapped CANBERRA (Reuters) -- A second Australian Colombo plan expert has been kidnapped by Communist guerrillas in South Viet Nam while trying to ar- range ransom for his captured fellow official, it was disclosed today.
