2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Friday, December 21, 1902 BEST CHRISTMAS EVER Mr. and Mrs. George Sze- kely were re-united with their children, Marianna, 11, and Margit, 10, whom they had not seen for six years. The Szekely's had to leave their daughters with relatives when they fled the Hungarian Rev- olution in 1956, Mr. Szekely, Calgary airport, "best waiting at said it would be the Christmas _ ever." --(CP Wirephoto) Session Unproductive House Reopens Jan. 21 By DON HANRIGHT OTTAWA (CP) -- After a crowded day filled with political rancor, both Houses of Parlia- ment have begun a four-week) recess. Provided Prime Minister Dief- enbaker doesn't call an election in the interval, the MPs will return to duty Monday, Jan. 21. A heavy work load awaits them. After sittings that ran to 60 days in the Commons and 39. in the Senate, not a single item in more than $6,000,000,000 worth of spending estimates was passed, despite the fact that the fiscal year is two-thirds over, The situation left the govern- ment with special month-to- month votes of money so it could carry on. The latest-- $330,080,511.93 for January -- was voted Thursday night after opposition warnings that Febru- ary's allowance may hinge on government action on other af- fairs. TO RUN FAIR There were thesé other devel- opments in the two Houses Thursday: The Crown corporation that will organize and run the 1967 World's Fair in Montreal was| set up, after Associate Defence} Minister Sevigny"s prediction that it will draw up to 40,000,000 visitors and that fair construc- tion will amount to about $200,- Liberal Senator Sarto Fourn- jer, former Montreal mayor, tried to amend the act in thelin upper chamber to give his city a share in the post-fair assets now assigned to the federal and provincial governments. He failed after Senator Mark Drouin (PC--Quebec) said | there is a three-party deal not covered by the bill. In Regina Thursday, the Al- berta, Saskatchewan and Man- itoba governments decided to ask for an immediate meeting with the federal government to discuss railway companies' abandonment of branch lines, including those already ap- proved by the federal govern- ment. The decisions were reached at a conference attended by Premier Woodrow Lloyd of Sas- katchewan, Premier Duff Rob- lin of Manitoba, Highways Min- ister Gordon Taylor of Alberta and 20 non-government organ- izations. Premier Lloyd who pro- posed the conference, said rail lines were being dropped with- out reference to the effect on communities, industries and in- dividuals on or near the lines. There was no consideration of the effect on the economies of provinces and municipalities. In the Commons, the final hour brought Liberal and New Democratic Party taunts at Conservative MPs as they again "talked out" a Liberal motion seeking the justice department legal opinion on which the cab- inet relied in imposing the June 24 import surcharges. Author of the motion, Paul Martin (L--Essex East), said the government was afraid to let it come to a vote because it might be defeated. "This government isn't afraid of anything," retorted Thomas M. Bell, parliamentary secre- tary to Justice Minister Flem- zg.

Remaining New Democrats blocked the move. The bills remain unpassed. Two. ministers made policy statements earlier: 1, Under acknowledged pres- sure from western interests, Transport Minister Balcer said the great majority of railway lines will be subject to an over- all review by the board of transport commissioners and will not be dealt with "in any precipitate fashion." 2. Works Minister Fulton an- nounced that National Housing Act loans will be made directly to builders for privately-spon- sored rental housing projects, if the builders can't get mort- gages from financial institu- tions designated as NHA lend- ers. He foresaw a $15,000,000-a- year demand for the direct loans. The move is aimed at provid- ing loans in smaller centres where builders. have been un- able to obtain funds for govern- ment guaranteed loans from ap- proved lending institutions. J. R. (Jack) Garland (L-- |Nipissing) said his party would reserve comment to study the announcement more closley. He said the government's housing policy has been 'wholly inade- quate" in the past and the Na- tional Housing Act was "'out- dated." H.. A.

Most of the attention in the interim supply debate -- which wound up in its seventh day, only a few hours--was ~ on Prime Minister Diefehbaker. He wasn't there.

Shooting RIO DE JANEIRO (CP)-- Joseph T. Thorson, 73-year-old president of The Exchequer Court of Canada, described from his hospital bed Thursday how he was shot in both legs Sunday during a daylight rob- bery. Thorson and Mr. Justice Ger- ald Fauteux of the Supreme Court of Canada were accosted by. the robbers during a trip to Gill Backs Jobless Fund Rule OTTAWA (CP)--Present rules barring payment of unemploy- ment insurance to workers made idle by strikes or lockouts have been supported by the Gill committee of inquiry on unem- ployment insurance. The committee's report, Is- went farther and recommended a_ broader application of the rule in the case of construction industry strikes affecting several con- struction jobs. The committee described as "sound" the present rule' which denies insurance benefits to in which they have taken some part or in which they have a financial interest. This includes those who refuse to cross picket lines. "We believe that this rule is sound and should apply what- ever the reason given for fail- ure to cross the picket lines," it said. The report noted that some employees refuse to cross picket lines because of threats of force, real or alleged. "Tf an exception is made for such cases, we believe that an inducement is created to the use or threat of force on a picket line, since non-striking employees who refuse to cross the picket line would then be eligible for insurance benefits." APPLIES WIDELY The committee said the rule should have an even wider ap-| plication in the case of work| stoppages in the construction in-| dustry where several unions| have master contracts with an| association of .contractors cov- ering many different construc- tion sites. | the union involved are ineligible \for insurance payments. "The difficulty arises in con- nection with sympathizing workers who participate in the dispute by refusing to cross picket lines at one or more projects," The committee said that where workers of a given grade or class refuse to cross picket lines at one project, insurance should be denied to all workers of that grade or class unem- ployed at all other projects in the area covered by the union agreement involved in the orig- inal. dispute. Thus if a carpenters' strike shut down all construction jobs in a city, and plumbers refused jto cross the picket line at one |Project, then all plumbers made jidle. by the city-wide strike would not be eligible for insu- rance. Thorson Relates Story Rio's 1,200 - foot - high Dona Marta Overlook. Fauteux was not hurt. Cheerful despite his wounds, Thorson said that more than anything he felt "indignation" when he was hit by the ban- dits' bullets after grappling with one of them. \ The court president said he had served in the army for three years during the First World War and had survived many air raids without a scratch and I had to come to Rio de Janeiro to get shot in both legs." "While my leg wounds are painful I expect to make a complete recovery," he said in an interview. "I am profoundly grateful the wounds were not worse, If the bandits had shot higher..." Thorson, honorary president of the International _Commis- sion of Jurists, and Fauteux were sightseeing following the close of the commission's inter- national congress at nearby Pe- tropolis Saturday when they were held up at the tourist spot. Thorson said they had de- cided to go to Dona Marta Overlook so that Fauteux, one of whose hobbies is photog- raphy, could take pictures of the city. They drove by taxi to the overlool: and were climbing a short flight of stairs when "suddenly two young men con- fronted us, both armed with re- volvers,'"' the jurist said. "One gangcier stood faeing me with two guns in his hands and the other one moved to- ward me. I suppose I very foolishly resisted him and the -- shot me in the right eg. "The blood just spurted. My feeling was one of indignation, not of shock. I f2!l down and must have sprained my ankle when I fell." Thorson said he got up and the man who had grappled with him went to Fauteux, ripping an expensive camera from his neck. Then he went through Fauteux's pockets, taking his valuables. He returned to Thorson and took fountain pens and some Brazilian currency from him. But when the robber reached for the jurist's passport, Thor- son again' fought him off and was shot in the other leg. "Mr. Justice Fauteux told me, 'for heaven's sake, give him the money. They'll kill you'." Thorson continued: "I gave im the cruzeiros--about $20 orth--then they hit me on the head and disappeared." As they fled the gunmen also shot the taxi driver, Francisco Pinto, in the knee. Fauteux and Pinto helped Thorson into the rear seat of pital. Thorson had praise for Pinto's courage for driving him down the steep, winding road with a leg wound. the taxi and drove him to hes-|27 Mrs, Edythe Cockles models some of the dark mink furs sold for a record price at a Vancouver -auction Wednes- day.

The 17 strikers, members of Local 841, NUPE, were in- formed in a letter received Thursday from city council's personnel committee that they "'will no longer be considered employees of the city" if they do not return to work by Dec.

The decision to extend the formal Anglo-American summit talks to three days from two is an indication of the tough bar- gaining between Prime Minister Macmillan and President Ken- nedy in what is described in the U.S. press as the most serious crisis between the two allies in recent years. At stake is Britain's future as a world power. Is she to have full ability to respond to a nuclear attack with sufficient strength to deter aggression or is she to fall under the wing of the American league, re- sponding Only in a manner pre- scribed by Washington? DOESN'T NEED SKYBOLT Macmillan's struggle was to attempt to persuade Kennedy to continue work on the Skybolt ballistic missile which could be fired from the wing of a bomber 1,000 miles from target. Kennedy says the Skybolt is a dud and since the U.S. has put up all the development cash, work on the Skybolt is likely to decline and die. The plain fact Tough On Britain is that the U.S, is producing so Nassau many inter-continental missiles) it doesn't need the Skybolt. Macmillan now is reported to have accepted a substitute-- the 1,800-mile Polaris missile designed primarily for atomic submarines. In terms of speed and ability to select targets, the submarine is 20 substitute for the plane.
