Little change winds light. in temperature, VOL. 91--NO. 158 Price Not Over 10 Cents Per Copy OSHAWA, ONTARIO, SATURDAY, JULY 7, 1962 SIXTEEN PAGES Doctor Imports For Emergency Said Ineligible REGINA (CP) -- The Sas- xatchewan govermment's corps of emergency doctors, recruited as a stop - gap aid to replenish the province's supply of physi- cians, was embroiled in con- troversy today. The newcomers, most of them flown here from Britain, have been described as ineligible to practise in Saskatchewan. The provincial government has been accused of "strike-break- ing." The hiring agency, the Sas- katchewan Medical Care Insur- ance Commission, says all its short - term help in the current doctors' strike are fully quali- fied and that it is solely inter- ested in providing services to communities without doctors. Most of the criticism has been general--featuring mainly the principle of importing out- side doctors and the amount of their payment. Donald Tansley, chairman of the commission, said it has moved a Britf$h woman doctor from her original hospital as- signment. Dr. Ida Fisher of London was replaced at Margaret's Hospital in the West central Saskatchewan town of Biggar by a doctor sup- plied by the Saskatchewan Col- lege of Physicians and Sur- geons, MORE DOCTORS ARRIVE Five new arrivals expected this weekend will increase the total British emergency. crew here to 11. They are hired on contracts' providing return air transportation and remunera- tion of between $900 and $1,800 a month for one to three months. terms. Two American doctors have also been recruited by the com- mission as well as three phy- sicians from other parts of Can- ada. The government hired doc- tors are working apart from some 200 members of the col- lege of physicians and surgeons who are providing emergency service free of charge hospitals. Dr. E. W. Barootes, vice- president of the governing St.| cal college, told reporters in Saskatoon Friday that the gov- ernment is importing doctors ineligible for licence to prac- tise. He did not say where these doctors came from. In Regina, Jack Kinze, Med- ical Care Commission secre- tary, said: "No British doctor has been refused registration by the Saskatchewan College of Physicians and Surgeons." BRITONS ELIGIBLE Under Canadian law and |medical practice a British doc- tor automatically qualifies for) registration by the Saskatch-| ewan medical college provided he is on the British Medical As- sociation register and is of} good character.

Fears arose that Tunisia also would try to make good its claim to parts of the oil-rich desert. Already reeling from internal turmoil that threatens civil war, the Algerian leaders were shocked and disillusioned by the land - grabbing move to Mo- rocco's King Hassan II. But the Ben Khedda regime appeared powerless to move against the Moroccan occupa- tion until it sets its own house in order, and the Algerian leader- ship split was as wide as ever. Rebellious Deputy Premier Ahmed Ben Bella, the radical leftist who split with Ben Khedda on the eve of Algerian independence, kept up a steady drumfire of criticism of the Al- giers' regime from his refuge in Cairo. DEFINES POLICIES In an apparent play for mili- tary support, he accused Ben Khedda of wanting to liquidate the 140,000 man Nationalist army and the "popular revolu- tion."

The Blanche Hindman manned by SIU crewmen, swung across the channel at Port Weller, at the canal's Lake Ontario end, and blocked all traffic after canal operators re- fused to handle it. With the lifting of the boycott, shipping began to move again. Seven ships had been stopped at the Lake Ontario end, 12 at the Lake Erie end, and more _ a dozen in the canal it- self. The government acted under a provision in the Industrial Re- tion Act--the federal labor law.

BOMBAY, India (Reuters)-- An Italian airliner carrying 94 persons was believed to have crashed today after failing to} land here at midnight. A land, air and. sea search was pressed for the plane as Alitalia Airlines announced in Rome that it must be presumed lost, it had been missing so long. A search plane pilot spotted a plane wreck near Auranga- bad--the airliner's last reported position--but it turned out to be that of an Indian Air Force bomber which crashed today on a routine flight. The DC-8 was over Auranga- sbad, about 190 miles east- northeast of Bombay, when its last radio message was re- ceived. Step Towards 4-Day Week In U.S. Union Airliner Missing 94 People Aboard The pilot--identified as Cmdr. Luigi Quattrin--did not mention that he was in trouble but re- ported poor visibility. At the |time he was over the moun- tains surrounding Bombay. Weather conditions at the time were unfavorable, but not so bad as to make landing diffi- cult, airport officials said. The plane was believed to be carrying 86 passengers and a crew of nine. Rescue officials planned to send up another wave of search planes as soon as the weather cleared. Land parties were organized around Aurangabad and a hel- icopter flew to the area from Juhu near Santa Cruz airport. Indian naval vessels searched the waters in the Bombay area. By THE CANADIAN PRESS Eastern Canada's violence- marked truck drivers' strike has ended. Trucks which have been standing idle as much as 12 weeks because of , separate strikes in Ontario and Quebec are expected to start rolling again during the weekend, fol- lowing settlement of both the walkouts. Both strikes involved mem- bers of the International (Ind.). The strike by 1,400 Quebec drivers, which began more than a month prior to the On- tario walkout, was also the first to be settled, if only by a mat- ter of hours. The contract signing at Mont- real came early Friday night, a few hours after some 600 shirt sleeved strikers ap- proved the terms almost unani- mously, ending a strike that cost an estimated $10,000,000 to $12,000,000,000 in its 83-day dur- ation. VOTE IN FAVOR Settlement of the Ontario Ontario, Quebec Trucks To Roll During Weekend hour, The pact lasts four years and provides $20 of a demanded $60 in retroactive pay. It was reported that a condi- tion leading to the two settle- ments was withdrawal of a se- ries of civil and criminal ac- tions launched by some truck- ing firms against the union. The Ontario Teamsters did not win their demand for union control over independent owner- operators working under con- tract for transport companies, and for a job and income guar- antee for drivers affected by diversion of freight to rail piggyback. However, an earlier guaran- tee to protect jobs of employ- ees with five years' seniority from piggyback, was extended to cover all drivers with at least two years' seniority. Nuclear Blasts In Atmosphere, strike was announced in Lon- don Friday night by Kenneth McDougall, president of Team- ster Local 958, who said the strikers voted 1,990 to 1,634 in favor of ending their six-week walkout. Included in the vote were bal- lots from Teamsters in London, Windsor, Toronto, Kingston and Hamilton, Windsor 980 re jected the pact Fri ing show-of-hands vote f p ently has dubious legality under the Teamster constitution. Alfred Perry, president of London Local 141, said Friday he had '"'no idea' why the vot- ing in Windsor wasn't by secret ballot. Representatives of the five Teamster locals involved and the Motor Transport Industrial Relations Bureau, bargaining agent for 65 Ontario trucking firms, reached agreement last weekend in Toronto at the end of the strike's fifth week. The settlement calls for a wage increase of 28.5 cents an hour, less than the 30 cents demanded by the union, but two cents more than was recom- mended by a conciliation report agreed to by the employers. RECALL WORKERS A spokesman for the transport bureau said companies have re- called their employees for regu- lar Sunday night shifts. - "The companies are happy to see Ontario's trucking industry about to return to normal op- erations." He refused to say how much the companies lost in money and business the railways took over, but admitted the trucking firms "may have a _ rough time" getting it all back. McDougall said all pickets will be withdrawn by tonight. He said he understands the Wind- sor local will abide by the over- all result. despite the show-of- hands opposition. The new Ontario agreement, which covers more than 7,000 drivers, is retroactive to Oct. 1, 1961, and runs until Sept. 30, 1965. The initial increase will be about six cents. Top wage for a city trucker had been $1.78 an Ist Since 1958: CAMP MERCURY, Nev. (AP) -- Scientists scheduled two above-ground nuclear blasts today, the first atmospheric shots here since 1958--amid un- confirmed reports that troops | are en route for a battlefield test early next week. The Atomic Energy Commis- sion and the Pentagon refused i@ day anything about the re- ported movement of troops but dozens of tanks were observed on flatcars rolling through nearby Las Vegas Friday. The shots planned for today were described as low yield de. vices, to be detonated only a few feet from the ground. Low yield indicates an explosive power of 20 kiltons--equal to 20,000 tons of TNT--or less. The United States has an. nounced 42 underground nuclear explosions at the Nevada test site: since the resumption of testing last September, includ- ing Friday's 100-kiloton hydro- gen blast. Secrecy shrouded today's ac- tivities. All roads on to the site were closed. TO MAKE EXPERIMENTS The military nature of the shots was indicated by a state- ment that the defence depart- ment, not the AEC, would con- duct varied experiments to an- alyze the effects of nuclear ex- plosions. One of the devices was de- scribed as a weapon--possibly a forerunner of the test set for next week. The AEC said radioactivity from the shots would be moni- tored at distances up to 300 miles but predicted off-site rad- iation would be well within es- tablished ranges. Strict secrecy like that im, posed today was expected to black out news about next week's test, posibly Tuesday or Wednesday. Published reports said an un- disclosed number of soldiers were expected from Ft. Lewis, Wash., during the weekend to prepare for the secret man- ouvres, believed to be the first of their type here since 1955, SAN FRANCISCO (AP)--The first 44-day work week in the United States has been nego- tiated by a San Francisco East bers. James Martin, business agent for Steamfitters and Refrigera- tion Local 342 made the an- nouncement Friday and said the 36-hour week will go into effect July 1, 1964. A spokesman for the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics re- ported: '"'We've checked--and it looks like the first big step to a four-day work week." Martin said "overtime will be permitted only in emergencies. We are cutting the work week to 4% eight-hour days not to in- crease income, the work." | The new three-year pact with Northern California's Mechani- cal Contractors Association is designed to provide jobs for some 500 unemployed workers from "an electrical source."
