(CP -- RCMP Friday stopped about 23 nude women from marching out of the smouldering Sons of Free- dom Doukhobor community of Krestova to the site of a court hearing of five sect members who stripped during a recent rally of Prime Minister Diefen- baker. Police said the women appar- day--but only after many of the women had taken such belong- ings as beds, washing machines and stoves to safety. Most Freedomite Children were kept from school, dupli- cating a past performance by the sect that resulted in the B.C. government taking many children from their parents. TOSS WATER, STONES Some women at Krestova ently were headed for nearby Crescent Valley where the five appared in RCMP court and were remanded one week. They are charged with nud- ity under the Criminal Code. They have been free since the May 26 stripping and were picked up by RCMP Friday. About 50 Freedomite tarpaper and plywood homes in three communities in this southeast British Columbia Kootenay area tossed buckets of water at po- lice and. reporters. About 1 women stripped, then started tossing stones, "Get out, we're very upset to- day," they said. "'We can't be responsible for what we do. We'll pull your pants off. We'll throw rocks," The women said God told them to set their homes ablaze. But authorities said the fires were burned to the ground Fri- were likely in protest against Arrest Of Pair Surprises Probe TORONTO (CP) Joseph McDermott and Vincent Feeley, long subjects of attention by the anti-gambling squad of the provincial police, were arrested Friday by a second OPP squad in a move that took officials of Ontario's royal commission on crime by surprise. The two men, reputed co- ezars of Ontario gambling and as such key figures in the royal commission hearings, were charged by the OPP anti-rack- ets squad with defrauding a mining concern of $25,000 in a transaction involving mineral claims they owned in North- western Ontario. Coincidentally, the arrests come at a time when the com- mission 1s in recess while the Ontario Court of Appeal decided whether Feeley can be forced to testify about his personal fi- nances. Feeley's lawyer will argue before the high court Monday that the commission cannot force his client to give evidence that might incriminate him. He objected on this ground Thurs- day when the commission called for Feeley's income tax returns since 1953. A decision is expected early next week. McDermott was scheduled as the next witness after Feeley, whose testimony lasted only a few minutes before he and law- yer Walton Rose threw up their legal barricade. CONNECTED WITH MINE However, Feeley did testify that he was an investor in KRNO Mines Limited, whose claims in the Big Duck Lake Area are involved in the fraud charge. The charge involves a $25,000 option taken by Keevil Mining Group Limited last summer on KRNO Mines. Evidence given to the com- mission in April was that KRNO was almost fully owned by Mc- CITY EMERGENCY PHONE NUMBERS POLICE 725-1133 FIRE DEPT. 725-6574 HOSPITAL 723-2211 Dermott and Feeley,. although they were listed only as pros. pectors. Feeley told the commission he has sunk $18,000 or $19,000 in the venture. Laying of the charge was di- rected by Attorney - General Roberts, but Roland Wilson, counsel for the commission de- scribed the arrest as a '"'sur- prising development." Bail for McDermott, 40, and Feeley, 38, was set at $15,000 each. McDermott was freed on bail provided by his wife but Feeley was taken to the Don Jail. They are to appear before Magistrate Thomas Elmore June 15. The pair already are out on bail pending appeal of a crim- inal conviction for conspiracy to obtain police information ii- legally, chiefly on gambling raids. They were released on $50,000 bail each.

While the homes were burn- ing, children played jin gardens and women went about their work, Mrs. Kay Makortoff, 25-year- old mother of two, said she set fire to her house at Shoreacres because she needed her hus- band, a convicted Doukhobor terrorist. The house was a wed- ding present from her husband five years ago. "I need my husband with me and my home is no use to me unless we can be together," she said. "The government has sep- arated us and they might as well take everything."

Kennedy, eager 30-year-old brother of the pres- ident and of attorney - general Robert Kennedy was endorsed by weary, hoarse Massachusetts. Democrats Friday night as a candidate for the U.S. senate. In the big battle of famous political names, Kennedy piled up such a margin over Edward J. McCormack, 38, that McCor- mack gave up before the bal- loting was two-thirds completed. With the score card showing Kennedy 691 to McCormack's 360, the voting was stopped. McCormack is the nephew of House of Representatives Speaker John McCormack. Transport Industrial Relations Bureau.

BUREAU HOLDS FIRM The bureau is holding firm on its offer of a 24%4-cent-an-hour increase over a three-year pe- riod from the date of signing. Meanwhile, a similar break- through was made Friday in a separate Teamsters strike by' employees of 10 of 25 cartage firms. Four of the firms ignored the Curb Cartage Association, their representative, and signed indi- vidual contracts with the Team- sters.

Current rate for drivers is $1.67 an hour for tractor-trail- ers and $1.62 for standard trucks, The association, meanwhile, has obtained injunctions against picketing at the firms hit by the strike. Families } ALGIERS (AP)--A child was asking: '"'Why do we have to leave?" | An old man_ shouted that France owed him better treat- ment for his First World War wounds. Someone around the crowded buffet called for beer and a loudspeaker repeated that no planes would leave for France until the following morning. This was Algiers' Maison Blanche airport, the airport of European exodus, the airport of uncertain future. Nearly 3,000 persons daily pass through the crowded, noisy waiting room where security guards carrying tommy - guns trip over stacks of suitcases. Armored cars and riot police vans bar access to the airport, 12 miles from Algiers, to con- trol the flow of cars bringing refugees. Each family is given a num- ber at the entrance. The num- ber entitles it to penetrate into the guarded area and line up for baggage security search and later for plane seat allot- ment. With luck, a family arriving Crowd Algiers Airport at dawn can leave by nightfall. But not all are lucky. Between 500 and 600 persons normally spend the night on their suitcases or on army cots. Almost all the Europeans leavire Algiers by plane are brought to the airport in cars of relatives and friends. Most are women and children and elderly persons: They con- form with the orders of the ter- rorist Secret Army Organiza- tion which wants to keep able- bodied men in Algeria. Many want to leave simply to avoid terrorism and the uncer- tainty of the first days of in- dependence, hoping to come back "at least to salvage some- thing from the apartment." Some hope that perhaps "things will work out" and that they will be able to return to this land of orange trees. Dusk was failing on the air- port. Behind the information counter a pretty girl in an air- line uniform was announcing a plane from Paris. On the dirt-stained wall, a tattered poster of four years ago still proclaimed 'France Stays On." QUEEN MOTHER, MAYOR DRAPEAU Gifts Presented To Queen Mother MONTREAL (CP) The Queen Mother and the Black Watch (Royal Highland Regi- ment) of Canada, of which she is colonel - in - chief, met inti- mately Friday. She paid a visit to the regi- ment's armory on mid - town Bleury. Street early in the day and attended the centennial din- ner of the officer's mess in the evening.

In Between, she was feted by the province of Quebec at a luncheon, performed the cus- tomary visitor's task of signing the golden book at the city hall, and received numerous gifts for herself and her family, At the regimental dinner, the Queen Mother and two ladies- Dublinski Back With Argonauts TORONTO (CP) -- Tom Du- blinski, the quarterback Tor- onto Argonauts ditched in 1957 after he jumped his contract with Detroit Lions in 1955 in the days of the player war between Canadian and American pro football teams, today returned to the Argonauts. The Eastern Football Confer- ence club announced the 31- year-old Dublinski has been ob- tained from Hamilton Tiger- Cats in a trade for end Ed Ochiena and tackle Dale Kias- sen. The Argonauts have acquired the "Dubber" for the second- string quarterback job behind Tobin Rote, the brilliant pass- ing star. Dublinski, a Canadian now and still an outstanding passer, is being considered by Argos as Rote's possible re- placement after the 1962 season. COMBINES INVESTIGATOR RECEIVES COMPLAINTS | By THE CANADIAN PRESS Price increases showed up at scattered points across Canada today following a few boosts earlier in the week blamed on the devalued dollar. But many merchants indicated they were holding the line. Bread seemed to be under heaviest price pressure, with increases in effect or planned in St. John's, Nfld., Halifax, Ot- tawa, Toronto and in some Sas- katchewan cities. But one of Canada's biggest bakers said there is no "justification" for a! bread price increase. George C. Metcalf, president) of George Weston Limited which operates bakeries at Tor- onte, Brantford, Ont., Montreal and Edmonton, said Westons will not increase the price of| bread. excuse for increasing the price of bread," he added. The first price increases ap- peared last Tuesday when two large oil companies raised the wholesale price of gasoline. The air transport board announced it had approved a request to in- crease trans-ocean fares eight per cent. Bakery spokesmen predicted then that prices of their products would be affected since Canadian wheat is sold at an internationally-fixed price in terms of U.S. dollars.

H. J. McManus, president of Imperial Fuels Limited in Lon- don, said his firm plans to in- crease fuel-oil prices and has already raised the price of coal it wholesales throughout West- fern Ontario. He blamed deval- uation. This was the picture given by merchants at points across the country: St. John's, Nfld.--A spokes- man for Our Own Baker Lim- Varied Views On Price Line ited, which has increased bread one cent a loaf, attributed it to rising wheat costs affected by devaluation. Halifax--E. M. Ritcey, vice- president of Howard's Limited, one of the city's biggest whole- salers, said devaluation "has had no effect on our firm." He foresaw no price increases for meat, vegetables or other grb- ceries but he said She price of bread is going up "due to in- creased wheat costs." BLAMES OTHER FACTORS A spoksman for Irving Oil Company Limited which an- nounced a seventh - tenths - of- a-cent increase for retail gaso- line outlets in the Maritime Provinces and Quebec four days ago, said the-boost was due in part to devaluation.

The U.S. Army ordered military person- nel in the Seoul area restricted to base except for official bu- siness.

Russia Trying To Shift Onus WASHINGTON (AP) -- U.S. officials say the Soviet Union has been embarrassed by the string of refugee incidents in Berlin and has tried to shift the blame with its note accusing the West of provoking trouble along the wall, Although the note was the strongest the Soviet Union has issued recently on Berlin, U.S, authorities said they saw no in- dication that the statement fore- shadows a Kremlin effort to start the Berlin crisis boiling again, The dispute over the divided city cooled off during the last several months while the United States and Russia explored var- ious ways of reaching a peace- ful solution.

The victim was Barbara Lof- rumento, 19, taken by_ her mother last Sunday to Loth- ringer for an abortion. The girl, a student at the College of New Rochelle, was four months preg- nant. Lothringer has been missing from his Queens office - home since Sunday, after telling Mrs. Lofrumento to go home and await a call from him, Also missing is the doctor's pretty receptionist, Theresa Carillo. In Brooklyn late Friday, a U.S. federal warrant was issued charging Lothringer with un-¢ lawful flight to avoid arrest on an abortion charge not con- nected with the Lofrumento girl's death. WAS INVESTIGATED The Queens district attorney's office had been investigating activities of the doctor in recent weeks. Since Barbara's death, federal authorities entered the case. Assistant U.S. Attorney John Sullivan told reporters Loth- ringer has been traced to the area of his family's Canadian hunting lodge about 60 miles north of Montreal. RCMP have been notified. The possibility also existed that Lothringer and Miss Ca- rillo ntay be in Cuba. She is a Cuban national and her mother resides in Havana. If they went there, this would pose a legal problem because the U.S. has 'no diplomatic relations with Castro's government.
