Norris has been ac- cused of reversing his own rul- ings to prevent the Seafarers' International Union of Canada labor strife on the Great Lakes. SIU lawyer Joseph Nuss made the charge Thursday in a plea for an opportunity to present the Seafarers' Union case in his own way. The Vancouver jurist was expected to reply later to- day. Mr. Nuss contended that Mr. Justice Norris has changed the sysem of receiving evidence since the SIU launched its testi- mony before the federal inquiry into waterfront labor violence and shipping disruptions on the lakes, "There has been no change in the system and you know it," said Mr, Justice Norris. did it, but drawing the infer- ence." The Canadian Labor Congress and Upper Lakes Shipping Lim- ited presented witnesses who testified about violence in the labor field on the Lakes and who alleged the SIU was a cor- rupt union. PUBLICITY WIDE Mr. Nuss said the cases against the SIU received wide newspaper publicity in stories "of a sensational nature." He claimed the right to pre- sent his case in reply as he saw fit--with an eye on its pub- licity value. - "TI will not clothe: myself in a shower curtain of hypocrisy," said Mr. Nuss. "I will not say that I will adduce my evidence in such away as to give the least pubilcity to it." Continuing on the -- witness = Jurist Said Reversing "Rulings During Probe Mclaughlin, executive vice- president of the SIU of Canada, produced various documents Thursday in a bid to refute ear- lier allegations against the SIU by Michael Sheehan, head of the rival Canadian Maritime Union. A series of documents was presented to deny Mr. Shee- han's charge that the SIU col- lected a $140,000 strike fund dur- ing the Canadian National Steamships strike of 1957-58, then paid out only $50. Mr. McLaughlin read from reports, cited cheques and quoted letters to demonstrate that Mr. Sheehan himself had paid more than $1,000 in strike benefits to CNS seamen and that the SIU had sent a total of $1,000 to West Indian wives of the strikers as well as feed- ing many of the strikers free stand for the SIU, Leonara J. in the SIU hall, 'REVERSED RULINGS' Mr. Nuss said the judge twice reversed his own rulings this week on admissibility of certain documents, after objec- tions by Maurice Wright, lawyer for the Canadian Labor Con- gress. The SIU counsel also accused rival lawyers of headline-hunt- ing when they presented their cases against the SIU at earlier sessions of the public inquiry. "They saw fit to conduct their case in that way, to draw it out, to sprinkle a little bit of violence or a little bit of intimi- dation in each day--always, of course, without proof as to who Friends and relotives are in- vited to place their tributes in this. edition in remem- brance of those who made the supreme sacrifice, For further information ond sig telephone 723-3492 THE OSHAWA TIMES CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING Three-Gun Texan Given $200 Fine TORONTO (CP)--A three-gun Texan was fined $200 Thursday because he forgot to check his shootin' irons befort coming into Canada.

The guns were found in his hotel room by police who went there after a maid noticed the By ALAN DONNELLY OTTAWA (CP) -- Canadians are living more comfortably now than they did 10 years ago, even though there are more homes with TV sets than with bathtubs. A smaller proportion of the nation's families are living in crowded quarters than a decade ago. A larger proportion have flush toilets. And the number of mortgaged homes is almost double. These are some of the find- ings from last year's census, when one home in every five was checked to see how Cana- dians live, how their homes are equipped, and how much it costs them to live as they do. A report today by the Domin- ion Bureau of Statistics said Canada had 4,554,493 occupied dwellings in June last year com- pared with 3,409,295 a decade earlier. They housed a popula- tion of 18,238,247, and the 33.6- per-cent increase in the number of homes outstripped the pop- ulation growth of 30.2 per cent. One or more TV sets were reported in 83 per cent of the guns. Canadian Living More Comfortable per cent of dwéllings that were equipped with baths or showers. In 1951, only 60.8 per cent of homes had baths or showers. And the proportion of dwellings with flush toilets increased in the 10 years to 85.2 per cent from 68.3 per cent. That still left 673,981 homes without flush toilets and 894,973 without bathtubs or showers. Another 904,378 homes--about one in every five--lacked hot and cold running water. The census also counted "crowded" dwellings -- defined as those with more people than rooms. Although the number of such homes increased to 750,942 from 641,820 a decade earlier, their proportion to the national total dropped to 16.5 per cent from 18.8. Two-thirds of the homes were owner-occupied and -one - third were rented. There was the same 2-to-1 ratio between single detached houses and apart- ments or flats. An average price tag of $11,- 021 was put on single, owner- occupied homes, ranging from $4,311 in Newfoundland to $12,- homes, compared with the 80.3 952 in Ontario. Firm's Product Said Harmful, 'Contaminated' Recur In By ALEX MORIN OTTAWA (CP)--The boiling parliamentary cauldron of 1956 pipeline debates was briefly re- visited in the Commons Thurs- day. A heady brew of charges spilled from the opposition benches as the rights of Parlia- ment became the topic of the private members' hour. A motion by Paul Martin (L-- Essex East) asking for ali the documents relating to the legal- ity of the government's emer- gency import surcharges trig- gered hot exchanges involving Mr. Martin, Justice Minister Fleming and: Stanley Knowles (NDP -- Winnipeg North Cen- tre), Mr. Fleming, who flatly. re- jected the motion, became so annoyed with the opposition at one point that he shouted: "These babbling mouths .. . they are only trying to reduce my time." 'I APPEAL' Referring to the pipeline de- bate, Mr. Knowles said: "I appeal to him, I remind him of the days when we were both sitting. on the other side of the House and were pieading for consideration of the rights of Parliament." Mr. Martin said the austerity program 'imposing $200,000,000 of taxes, has no legal founda- tion whatsoever." He doubted that the govern- ment had received any legal opinion at all. Mr. Knowles called the mat- Pipeline Debates ter one of the most important to come before the House this session because it involved the question "as to whether there has been taxation without due process of law." "The answer given to us is the answer we used to get from she ad source: 'Who can stop us?' TURNS TO COMMITTEE In the evening sitting, the House turned its attention to formation of a 26-member ses- sional committee on railways, airlines and shipping. It turned to be what Com- mons Speaker Marcel Lambert called "a scattergun discussion on transportation policy." The motion to form the com- mittee was,passed, but not until MPs had voiced a chorus of complaints, Lionel Chevrier (L--Montreal Laurier) said implementation of the MacPherson royal com- mission report on transportation would cost Canadian taxpayers up to $1,000,000,000 and that the commission had failed to carry out its specified cuties. Douglas Fisher (NDP--Port Arthur) described CNR Presi- dent Donald Gordun as "an Achilles lithout a heel'? who made MPs look like heels when he last appeared before their railway committee. Real Caouette, deputy leader of the Social Credit party, pro- tested against the free enter- prise taxes from trucking being used by the government to pay subsidies and deficits for gov- ernment-owned railways. NEW YORK (AP) -- A New York firm was accused Thurs- day of distributing food and drug products contaminated by a powerful sex hormone which caused harmful effects in young boys and girls. The U.S. Food and Drug Ad- ministration said the hormone can cause feminization in young boys and early internal physi- ological development in young girls. The justice department ac- tion was brought in Brook!yn federal court against Nysco La- boratories Incorporated, manu- facturer of pharmaceuticals in Long Island City, Queens. It produces dietary food supple- ments, prescription drugs, an- tihistamine tablets and tablets for acid stomach, among other items. The government said some products were adulterated with the hormone known as diethy]- stilbestrol through failure prop- erly to clean machinery after producing batches of the hor- mone, No figures were given on the been affected by the company's products. However, U.S, . Attor- ney Joseph P. Hoey said the adulteration had taken place over a two-year period begin- ning in June, 1960.

Separate TORONTO (CP)--A Toronto United Church minister has warned representatives of 12 denominations that atheists, secularists and Jews would de- mand government financing for schools if Roman Catholics win their "separate school" battle for public funds. Rev. E M Howese of Bloor Street United Church was re- plying Thursday to the religious education report presented to the biennial conference of the Canadian Council of Churches. (Recently, Ontario's Roman Catholic bishops asked in a brief for provincial aid to fi- nance high schools, teachers' colleges and vocational schools. Roman Catholic separate school boards now many only collect taxes and receive grants for aaa schools up to Grade "If this trend (toward separ- ate schools) goes it could mean dsetruction of public schools in the end," the minister said. Mr. Howse said also that re- ligious education in public schools is "the most important struggle in Ontario, and pos- sibly Canada, today." PRESENTS REPORT The religious education com- School Trend Assailed mittee report was presented by Rev, Kenneth Wills, secretary of the Christian education de- partment, Mr. Wills criticized denomina- tional field personnel for being "simply not interested" in re- ligious education in schools. "They see no need to give any of their time to the study of Christian unity," he said. "Each is too busy with his own work." "Meanwhile," .fr. Wills said, "active opposition to any rec- ognition of religion in our var- ious public school systems 'is rampant, There is organized and vigorous cultivation of pub- lic opinion against us." More than 100 delegates from the 12 denominations--including the United, Anglican, Baptist, Presbyterian and Greek Ortho- dox Churches and the Salvation Army--attended the four - day conference which concluded Thursday: SENDS TO VATICAN Car Runs Over Boy Operation Unlikely ST. CATHARINES (CP)--An 18-month-old boy is doing well and unlikely to need_an opera- tion for injuries suffered when a car wheel. ran over his head Wednesday. Police said one wheel went over the boy's head when he fell under the car while.his fa- ther was backing out of a drive- 'ay. The boy, Cameron Whitworth, son of Mr, and Mrs. William Whitworth, was taken to hos- pital here and x-rays showed skull fracture and pressure on the brain. He was transferred to hos- pital in Burlington, where offi- cials said Thursday he is doing well and unlikely to need an operation, Lady Seackote Annoy Him VANCOUVER (CP) -- Austin Willis has a pet peeve: Women and cigarettes. The Canadian star of stage, screen, radio and television has "thing" about acting as a private cigarette butler. Vital Industry Strikes Rapped MONTREAL (CP) -- CPR Vice-President Ian D.. Sinclair said Thursday night strikes ir vital Canadian industries should be outlawed, If such an industry and a un- fon cannot reach agreement in a contract dispute through col- lective bargaining, he said, it should be settled by what in | effect would be. compulsory ar- bitration. . Mr. Sinclair, speaking to the Federation of Canadian Person- nel Associations, did not specify what industries he had in mind as being: vital to Canada's wel- fare. But railroading is consid- ered one of the most essential. Mr. Sinclair said different procedures should be followed in labor disputes involving es- sential industries from those in- volving less important ones. "A strike that endangers the vital interest and welfare of the '/nation runs counter to the pub- lic interest . "Tt is my opinion, therefore, that final determination must be established by law to ensure that the welfare of the Cana- dian people will not be im- perilled by strike action." "Ladies who assume the per- sonal habit of smoking should acquire the necessary smoking accoutrements and keep them with them," Willis said here during a _ personal-appearance tour. "If I am going to spend a prolonged period of time with a lady, I will gladly go to the ex- pense of giving her a carton of cigarettes and a box of kitchen matches, just to avoid the nudges." Nudges? That happens when the woman at a party discovers herself out of cgarettes. "Cigarette," she says, poking her escort. He leaps up, proffers the pack, then returns to the conversation. "Light," she demands. An- other interruption. TWO TYPES "With women smokers, there are two types," explains Willis. "The independent ones -- bless 'em--and the Buddhist ones. The Buddhist smoker will sit with an unlighted cigarette in hand or mouth almost indefi- nitely unless someone lights it. "All around her, people are smoking. At her elbow is a matches, yet she sits there, sniffing. "You know the sniff. It means, 'ydu haven't lit my cig- arette, sob.' "' Cigarettes also have to be put out. "I think it has something to cigarette slightly, with a result that a column of smoke rises, and rises and rises. "This provides, of course, an extra hazard for me. It might yellow my hair." This is not to be taken as a plea for wholesale feminine in- dependence.

They said they have developed a prototype of a machine that will deliver an intense beam of radiation both to a cancer and to the paths along which it is spreading through te body. At a press conference in Lon- don Thursday night a group of doctors, surgeons and special- ists at London's Royal Northern Hospital launched an appeal for £50,000 to develop the system. One surgeon claimed that the new method could be effective in treating all forms of cancer. It would be more effective in some types, particularly, cancer of the cervix, than in others, he said. He added that where it did not replace surgery it could supplement it by continuing the work where a surgeon could not g0- The basis of the new method was said to lie in the tracing of the path through which 'the cancer was spreading, along the lymphatic system; this could be done by ordinary x-rays. The immense radiation beam is then moved along the line of cancer growth. The doctors said a prototype of the new apparatus used at the hospital had been employed in five cases. They said three of these had been cured and the other two, considered ine curable, had been improved. The council agrecd to send a 300-word greeting to the second WINDSOR, Ont.

(CP)--Twenty persons, including children, fled a blazing apartment block early Thursday and 60 women were evacuated from an adjacent match factory as flames licked the building. -The fire burned out the in- terior of the 3%4-storey block, valued at $45,000. About 50 fire- men took two hours to bring the flames under control. Tenant Robert McAuley, 38, overcome by smoke as he ran from the building, was admitted to hospital. His condition was satisfactory. Harry Evans, 50, said he and his wife escaped through a main floor window "just in time." Flames licked through the of- fice windows of the Strike-Rite Matches Limited factory, but were quickly doused. Residents in an adjacent apartment block were forced from their apartments as heavy 'gmoke inundated the building. en said the fire appar- iy aad in the basement and spread quickly through the By KEN KELLY OTTAWA (CP)--One of the fascinating topics of parliamen- tary speculation this week is whether Real Caouette deliber- ately embarked upon a course which could conceivably have defeated the government in the €ommons and brought on an lection. This talk is based on state- ments by Mr. Caouette, Quebec Social Credit leader and deputy national leader, and by Na- tional Leader Robert Thompson before and after Tuesday night's vote on the Liberal non- confidence. motion. The minority Conservative government survived when the motion, demanding an end to '"'austerity,'"'" was defeated by a scant 13 votes. The winning margin was supplied by Social Credit--Mr. Thompson, British Columbia member A. B. Patter. son and 13 of the party's Que- bec MPs, In all previous votes on non- confidence motions presented by the other opposition parties, Social Credit voted en bloc to Save the government in the "House of minorities' where they have 30 members, the Con- servatives 116, Liberals 99 and the New Democrats 19. TWO MEMBERS REBEL e building. The cause rss not immediately known. But Tuesday night Social Credit was divided for the first time--two Quebec MPs voted for the Liberal motion while Mr. Caouette and five more of his Quebec colleagues ab- stained, It is against this background --and Mr. Caouette's pre-Par- liament warnings that he would take drastic steps if the govern- ment did not end its austerity measurés--that four statements of he party's leaders before and after the vote caused a stir of speculation. : The first was Mr. Thompson's statement to reporters that he thought Mr. Caouette had told him there was no need for a pre-vote caucus of Social Credit MPs to discuss strategy. The second was Mr. Thomp- son's statement Wednesday that when the vote was called he did not know how many Social Credit MPs would vote with him against the motion. Third was the statement by Mr. Caouette about an hour be- fore the vote, that a caucus of the Quebec Social Credit MPs would meet and it was "pos- sible' they would vote for. the Liberal motion, The fourth was Mr. Caouette's statement Wednesday that his Quebec organization is much more ready for an election than Caouettes Move May Have Been Deliberate WHIP BACKED THOMPSON MPs who went.into the lobbies to find out what was afoot say it was Dr. Guy Marcoux, party whip and Mr. Thompson's right- hand man, who convinced 12 of his Quebec colleagues to follow Mr, Thompson's lead and pro- vide the government with a ma- jority. Mr. Thompson, whose French is improving but still not up to the rapid-fire speed of the Quebec caucus, stood by. At one point, Mr. Thompson left his colleagues and crossed the Commons floor to confer with Douglas Fisher, New Dem- ocratic caucus chairman. He is said to have suggested that the New Democrats swing their votes behind the government. The New Democrats refused. Mr. Thompson has steadfastly maintained that an election now would be wrong, that the gov- ernment should be given a chance to present its legislative program and a_ budget. before final judgment is passed. The question MPs are asking themselves is this: Did Mr. Caouette stall off a caucus in hopes that, under pressure of deciding on the spot how to vote, most of the Québec Social Credit MPs would follow the party organization elseg where in Canada. their Quebec leader? sort of "ritual anti-American- ism" still existed. The chasirman of the national productivity council, H. George De Young, of Welland, said lack of co-operation between man- agement, labor and government was the greatest hinderance to the achievement of Canadian production goals. Assumption's main auditor- ium was packed at noon when National Liberal Leader Lester Pearson made an appeal for closer ties between the two countries, Mr. Pearson advo- cated an economic partnership and political interdependence, Saying islation by either coun- try was impossible. ATTACKS TARIFFS Dr. M. K. Inman, head of the economics department at the University of Western Ontario, followed Mr. Pearson with an attack on tariff protection sys- tems. He said they should be discarded by Canada and the U.S, because they aided partic- ular interests at the expense of the consumer, Canada's nuclear weapons policy was criticized by Dr, Ar- thur Lower, retired professor of history at Queen's. He said Can- ada seemed to believe that by refusing to have nuclear weap ons on her soil, she was "in some peculiar way preserving purity." A nuclear war, said Dr. Lower, would not develop as long as the balance of power between East and West was not badly tilted. Two economic experts talked on the cases and cures of Can- ada's chronic balance of pay- ment problems. Canada-American Relations Probed Mitchell Sharp, former asso- ciate deputy minister of trade and commerce, said he looked upon proposals for a free trade area or customs union with the United States as "'a threat to Canada's separate identity" Dr. Harry Johnson of the Uni- versity of Chicago urged Can- ada to quit trying to be like the United States. He disagreed that tariff protection remova! would destroy Canadian second- ary industry. Although Canada could never be a United States, she could develop into an effi- cient and prosperous trader like Sweden, he said. Vatican council being held in Rome.
