Charron, a Wind- sor plumber and perennial political also-ran, put up a $200 deposit to enable him to enter his new party, the Co- operative Builders of Canada, in the riding of Exxes West. Mr. Charron is aware that as the party's only member and, so far, only candidate, a rapid rise to power isn't likely. But he claims he'll have at least 90 supporters at the polls June 18. Founding his own party is probably the most ambitious venture in Mr. Charron's po- litical career. He broke into politics in 1956 when he ran unsuccessfully in Windsor's mayoralty race. He made no better a showing when he tried again in 1958 and 1960. No newcomer to the federal field, Mr. Charron ran without success as a Social Credit candidate in Essex South in 1957 andin Essex West in 1958. ; As the Co-operative Build- } dividual Canadian's pockets. He says this can be accom- plished by eliminating federal taxation and replacing it with a system of money rotation.

At the same time, the sub- urb's 45-man police ba gery a came under the control of Que- bee Provincial Poilce. The decision to take the city under the porvince's wing was announced in the Quebec legis- lature last week by Municipal Affairs Minister Lucien Cliche. He said the take - over was needed "to clean out under- world influence in the town." Mare Perron, an official of the municipal affairs .commis- sion, moved into offices in the city hall Tuesday to begin his job of directing the city's ad- ministration. He declined to comment on the duration of the take-over, saying only that it "will last as If no settlement is reached to- day, the CNR was expected to send notice to regional offices of an embargo against accept- ing freight shipments for de- livery after the strike date. Such embargoes normally are issued five to seven days before a threatened strike to give ship- pers time to plan other methods of transportation. CRITICIZES STAND Meanwhile, Frank Hall, chair- man of the Non-Operating Rail- way Unions, said in a statement Tuesday that Vice - President R. A. Emerson of Canadian Pacific Railway apparently "doesn't care very much what happens" to railwaymen as a result of new methods of rail- way operation. "Labor knows the futility of trying to prevent adoption of in- creasing mechanization, but it doesn't want to become its vic- tims," said the statement. "Presumably Mr. Emerson thinks that all these innovations are calculated solely to secure and enhance the value of invest- ment in the industry.'

The Soviet leader said heat- edly at a reception here given by a Mali government delega- tion: "I can quote to you from the Bible. It says that Christ once took a stick and started to chase the traders from the church. That is in the Scriptures." Khrushchev said that capital- ists "thus had no excuse" and that while they talked about Christian brotherhood they did "nothing but rob." At the end of a 40-minute speech without notes Khrush- chev held out his glass to cor- respondents standing about a yard away from him and ex- claimed: 'You colonialists." Raising his glass and smiling he toasted "to the liquidation of the colonial system." In his speech, he said that if the peoples of the world turned to socialism the earth would be "transformed in 10 or 15 years." He went on: "It would be paradise. Chrigtians promise it after death but we will have it on this planet, on the planet earth."
