(CP-AP) -- Lee Harvey Oswald may have left behind in death a blueprint for the assassination of Presi- dent John F. Kennedy--a map with the line of fire of the fatal presidential bullet.

Through the entire night an incredible outpouring of men, women and children inched along the streets outside the Capitol, climbed the steep stair- way of the east front and moved slowly past the coffin of John F. Kennedy. For some it meant a 10-hour wait in freezing temperatures without food or water, carrying small children, in order to pay their own private tribute to the slain president. Luckier ones made it in seven hours. With never a break in the steady shuffle of feet across the stone floor of the rotunda the solemn procession went on from 3 p.m. Sunday through the afternoon, night and morning. Police estimated 140,000 passed the bier by 9 a.m, when the Capitol doors closed to pre- pare for Kennedy's funeral. LIQUOR OKAYED IN PLEBISCITE All three questions posed in -Oshawa's liquor plebis- cite were approved Satur- day. Less than 40 per cent of Oshawa's eligible voters turned out to cast ballots in the plebiscite. Dining lounges, cocktail lounges and retail liquor stores in the annexed areas of the city will now be authorized. The Cedardale district and part of East Whitby Town- ship which were annexed by Oshawa make up the area in which liquor -stores will: be allowed. (See de- tails on Page Nine.)

Other thousands came in the early dawn--families hud- died with children and blankets. Through the night, other thousands had walked through the Capitol to see the flag- draped coffin and pay last res- pects to the fallen president. Po- lice estimated the total at around 240,000. At least 2,000 were waiting in line, hoping to get in, when the doors were closed to the public at 8:30 a.m. As, the hour approached for thé president's body to leave the Capitol, the rotunda filled with members of Congress, sen- ators, governors of states and other officials. A few congressmen ap- proached the coffin briefly. Ex- cept for a subdued murmur of conversation there was silence under the high dome. Bright sunlight pierced the windows. high up on the dome jand cast light on the north . It @ beautiful Members of the Senate filed into the rotunda shortly before 10 a.m. Mrs. Jacqueline Kennedy, veiled and dressed in black, came out of the north portico of the White House at 10:25 a.m. and entered a_ limousine for the drive to the Capitol. She was escorted by the slain president's brother, Attorney- of was, and Senator Kennedy on the other. They walked to where the late president's body lay and knelt by the coffin. HOLDS HAND There was silence in the ro- tunda as they rose and slowly backed away, then turned with Robert Kennedy holding Mrs. Kennedy's hand. They took a last lingering look before turning away. The president's flag - draped coffin was slipped slowly from the catagalque. The guard of honor carried the casket from its resting place with a sailor, bearing the pres- ident's flag, walking behind. Guards outside the door sa- tuted as the coffin was borne out the door and down the steps. An officer called "'atten- tion," a salute was fired and a band broke into Hail to the Chief. The huge crowd in the Capitol plaza was silent and stood ale most motionless. PAY TRIBUTE A U.S. Coast Guard academy band gave the four. ruffles or muffled drums and the other musical tributes. Outside, the same six white The white horses leaned against their chest straps and the caisson began to roll. The six limousines canrying the immediate family followed the caisson.

VEILED HEAVILY Mrs. Kennedy was so heavily veiled that her face could not be clearly seen. The fleet of limousines pro- ceeded slowly up Pennsylvania Avenue to the Capitol between ranks of military guards. The crowds lining both sides of the street were silent. The White House party turned into Independence Avenue into the Capitol plaza, stopping at the centre of the Capitol grounds. Inside, 10 military pallbear- ers had taken positions around the coffin, and a flag - bearer and guard of honor were sta- tioned just inside the east en- trance.

Premier Bennett of British Columbia made public a_/brief| junging the central government to pull out completely from the field of direct taxation. Mr. Bennett also wanted abandon- ment of equalization payments-- a suggestion strongly opposed in the Atlantic provinces: Mr. Smaiiwood, Mr. Bennett, Premier Shaw of Prince Ed- ward Island, Premier Manning of Alberta and Premier Lioyd of Saskatchewan were in Ot- tawa Sunday despite last-minyte postponement of the fiscal con- ference to Tuesday from today allowing Prime Minister Pear- son to attend the funeral in Washington of President Ken- jnedy.

"I don't think that principle should be forgotten now." Mr. Bennett's brief, to be pre- sented at the opening session of the week-long conference, said equalization pa yments didn't centribute to national harmony. "The grants are undue sub- sidies to certain provinces at the expense of others. . Equalization in its present form is basically wrong and unfair," he said.

People in the crowds looked at each other, some shook their heads sadly. Some women wore black veils. Many of the thousands who lined the route bowed their heads as the caisson passed. Some appeamed to be in tears. The band broke into Onward, Christian Soldiers. At the White House, while awaiting the amrival of the cor- tege, the naval academy choir sang hymns in front of the north portico. im At St. Matthews Cathedral, some: eight blocks away, people already were arriving for the service, Many of the men wore tall silk hats and formal clothes.

There was a momentary stir as a window in a building next to the cathedral shattered and showered down on police and troops. Secret service men and police rushed to the sixth floor of the -loffice building and were seen peering out of the window shortly afterwards. A secret serviceman told a re- orter a man trying to open the window had broken it acciden- tally.
