"The premier said he had in- vestigated the procedures under "which old charters for which corporate powers had been for. ,feited were granted new life by the provincial secretary's de- partment. nn New Democratic Party Leader Donald C. MacDonald "charged in the legislature Mon- y'day that Earl Rowe, named to ..be the next lieutenant-governor, and his son, Lennox, had faisi- _fied an affidavit in 1961 to re- vive one of several horse-racing charters "'strung together" for #the Windsor Raceway. "" Mr, Robarts said Thursday that, his study last spring had "shown that the reviver proced- "ures were "not a neat and tidy way of dealing with racing "charters when other methods "are available."

Socred Departs From 'No' On Nuclear Arms By JAMES NELSON OTTAWA (CP)--Social Credit Leader Thompson has dissoci- ated his national party from the "'No, no, no" views of his Quebec deputy, Real Caouette, arms for Canada's defences, | Mr. Thompson said at a press) conference here Thursday that! his party's nuclear arms policy statement for the April 8 gen- eral election does not rule out nuclear warheads for Canadian forces in NATO or at home. He is not advocating their acquisition now, but says that if a Social Credit government is elected it will follow the ad- vice of what he described as a non-partisan parliamentary de- fence committee, after it has examined secret security infor- mation and the international situation. | Asked at a Montreal press conference for a yes or no state- ment on whether Social Credit would equip Canadian forces with nuclear weapons, Mr. Caouette said: "Tl give you a straight an- swer.

With regard to bringing nuclear warheads on Canadian soil, we will continue to negoti- ate with the United States so that they will be readily avail- able in case of need. This means that our security will be assured while at the same time we will be doing nothing to in- crease the nuclear family." (House of Commons, Feb. 5, 1963) On the question of nuclear weapons for Canadian forces in NATO, the Anglo - American Nassau agreement produced 'a completely new concept of de- fence' which required that Can- ada's role be reviewed at the NATO ministerial meeting in " |Ottawa May 22-24, "Any earlier decision would be premature." (Toronto speech, Feb, 11, 1963). Liberals Lester Pearson: ". . . Both in NATO and in continental de- fence, the Canadian government has accepted defence commit- ments for Canada which can only be carried out effectively by Canadian forces with 'nu- clear warheads for their equip- ment . . . Until the present role is changed, a new Liberal gov- ernment would put Canada's armed services in a position to discharge fully commitments for Canada by its predecessor." (Toronto speech, Jan, 12, 1963) "A new Liberal government would make a complete and thorough review of our whole defence policy . . . In this re- examination, one which cannot, of course, be concluded over- night and one which would re- quire full consultation with our NATO allies, we should seek a defence role for our country which would be more appropri- ate for us than our present one and which would enable us to make a more effective contribu- tion to collective security, to our own defence and to defence of peace."' (House of Commons, Jan, 25, 1963) Much emphasis placed on conventional had been forces lish that this "may well be the best role."" However, "'what the results would be, I don't know." Social Credit Robert Thompson: 'We are unquestionably opposed to of- fensive nuclear weapons' but Social Credit policy does not rule out defensive nuclear weapons for Cariadian forces at home or abroad--provided this is based on an agreeemnt with the United States and a "non- partisan parliamentary defence committee," "If nuclear warheads are con- sidered necessary in light of military necessity, in the light of the international situation, in the light of the over-all picture as it relates to defending our ;country as part of this continent and part of the free world, then we would have to have them. Personally I am not in a posi- tion to know because I am not an expert on these things," (Ot- | Four Political Parties Cite Nuclear Policies tawa press conference, Feb. 14, 1963) Deputy-Leader Real Caouette: "We of the Social Credit are officially against nuclear arms, whether it be in Canada or out- side the country, We stand in favor of bread and butter, we stand in favor of the hungry people in the world." (House of Commons, Jan. 25) New Democratic Party T. C, Douglas: "'. .. We need a government which is pre- pared to pledge itself to a non- nuclear role for Canada so that this country can make its con- tribution to world peace by strengthening the United Na- tions, by giving of our personnel and our resources to raise liv- ing standards throughout the world."
