These points were made by Deputy Premier Briadley| OTTAWA (CP)--In the face of a national council recommen- dation that the Social Credit party abolish Real Caouette's post as deputy national leader, Mr. Caouette said today the Quebec wing rejects anything which would diminish its influ- ence in the movement, The 45-year-old MP for Ville- neuve, also Quebec leader of the party, read reporters a statement in French acknowl- edging Robert Thompson as na- tional leader but stating that the Quebec wing stands on the 1961 decision of a Social Credit na- tional convention which elected him deputy national leader. The national council of the party, including representatives of provincial organizations and the national executive, had is- sued a statement an hour ear- lier saying the council intends to recommend to a national con- vention that Mr, Caouette's post be abolished. The national council, ending a two-day meeting, said in a statement it "dissociated itself from' any unwarranted state- ments made in the past." This evidently referred to council {members' complaints that Mr. Caouette made policy state- ments conflicting with those of Mr, Thompson. The council said that under the constitution Mr. Thompson is responsible for the formation and interpretation of policy, ex- cept as directed by the national convention, and is the spokes. man for the association. Deputy Leader Claims Support leader, were the words: "And we deplore and reject the inter- vention of persons who seek to divide rather than unite the movement." The statement said the Que- bec group demands to be treated on an equal footing as representative of the French- speaking element in the Social Credit movement and in Confed- eration. Regarding the national coum cil's comment about unwar ranted statements, the Quebee wing said: "It may be that in- opportune statements were made in various parts of Can. ada, but this should not cause us to lose sight of our goal: Social Credit." The Quebec statement con cluded by saying "'it is there- fore unanimously resolved and agreed that we maintain our po- sition in the national movement in line with the national con vention held in 1961." French-German Leaders Fail To Agree BONN (AP) -- French Preasi+ dent de Gaulle and West Ger- man Chancellor Adenauer failed to agree today on what kind of relations the Common Market should have with,Britain, West Mr, Caouette said he agreed that a new national convention should be called but said that it is "far-fetched" to suggest that '"'certain provinces that have been more of a burden than an asset to the movement should decide the position taken by the Social Credit members of Parliament." "We reject these. recommen. dations that would tend to di- minish the French-speaking in- fluence within the movement." The precise nature of the rec- ommendations was not made clear, But it is understdod that the Quebec wing aims at having an equal voice with English- speaking sections of the party. Coupled with the Quebec wing's statement maintaining that Mr. Thompson is national German officials reported, The officials, emerging from a three-hour conference of tup West German and French lead- ers, reported that the meeting resulted only in a delay of the problem. They added that no effective agreement could be- reached, either, on farm prices--another difficulty that has been holding up progress in the Common Mar ket. De Gaulle prefers to keep the Common Market a closed cor- poration, dominated by France. He envisages a third power equal to both the United States and the Soviet Union. The meetings today were the windup of two days of French- West Genman talks, first con- ference under the two nations' treaty of co-operation designed leader and Mr. Caouette deputy to end their long enmity. OTTAWA (CP)--Living costs in Canada in May rose to a rec- jord high with the consumer jprice index advancing to 132.8) jat June 1 from 132.3 at May 1, |the bureau of statistics said to-| day, The increase of one-half point in May occurred after the in- dex--a prices yardstick based on 1949 price levels equalling. 100-- had held steady at 132.3 in March and April. The index at June 1 was 1.8) jper cent above the June, 1962,) index of 130.5. | The May increase was caused) mainly by a rise in food prices.) Higher prices for clothing, health and personal care and! recreation and reading also con- tributed to the rise. The food index in May rose 14 points to 129.7 from 128.3 a jmonth earlier. | | Prices were substantially higher for sugar and a number of fresh fruits and vegetables, particularly grapefruit, apples, potatoes, onions, carrots and let- tuce. j Smaller price increases were} reported for a wide variety of} jfoods, including beef, pork, milk jbread and flour, jam, coffee, \jelly powder and orange juice. |Prices were lower for eggs, fish land chicken, butter, oranges, strawberries, tomatoes and cab- The May rise in prices 'fol- lowed an increase in salaries and wages in April.

The health and personal care index advanced one-tenth of a point to 162.7 from 162.6. The personal care component in- creased but the health care in- dex remained unchanged, An increase of one-half point was registered by the recrea- tion and reading index. It moved to 149.3 from 148.8, with the reading component un- changed but the recreation com- ponent rising as a result of higher prices for bicycles and sports equipment. HOUSING UNCHANGED The housing index was un changed at.136. A small decline in the household operatioa component was offset by a frac- tional rise in the shelter com- ponent. In shelter, both rerts and home-ownership were up slightly. In household operation, price decreases were recorded for coal, furniture, drapery ma- terials, some utensils and «quip- ment and household detergents Rescinding of the May transit fare increase in Toronto resulted in the transportation index de- clining to 140.3 from 140.6.
