9 2240-41 'Kennedy's Death Dominates News By CARMAN CUMMING Canadian Press Staff Writer World mourns Kennedy Suspect ds also shot Missile cape renamed Cubans jail Canadian The United States buried its 35th president Monday, end- ing one of the most incredible weekends in the history of the republic. The body of John F. Ken- nedy was buried on an open hillside in Arlington National Cemetery, across the Ptomac River from Washington. His widow, Mrs. Jacqueline Kennedy, lit an eternal flame on his grave, maintaining the taut composure she had shown since the president was shot by her side in a Dallas motorcade three days before, she had broken tra- dition by walking behind the horse-drawn gun carriage that carried Kennedy's body from the White House to St. Mat- thew's Cathedral for state fu- neral services. Behind her walked one of the greatest assemblages of world leaders Washington had ever seen, including President de Gaulle, Prince Philip, Brit- ish Prime Minister Sir Alec Douglas - Home and Prime Minister Pearson. Tributes to the president came from almost the entire world. In Washington, an esti- mated 1,000,000 watched the cortege. OSWALD SLAIN The day before, many of the same people had watched as the strange second act of the. assassination drama was played out at Dallas city hall. With television ¢c meras trained on him, accused as- sassin Lee Oswald was shot fatally during a jail transfer. Millions looked on in their livingrooms as nightclub owner Jack Ruby, 52, rushed up and fired one bullet" into Oswald's side. The 24-year-old suspect died in the same hos- ital where Kennedy's life id ended two days earlier. The slaying raised an im- mediate outcry of protest against the Dallas police-- both in the Communist. world and the West. Communist newspapers charged that Os- wald had been silenced to cover up a right-wing conspir- acy. Many Americans -- be- lieved Oswald, a Marxist who lived for a time in Russia, acted as an agent of interna- tional communism. Oswald h'~eelf died still denying at i...olvement in the slaying of the president, the simultaneous wounding of Texas Governor John Gon- nally or the subsequent killing of a Dallas policeman. JOHNSON TAKES OVER Meanwhile Lyndon Baines Johnson, the first southerner to become president since Woodrow Wilson, took over the reins o f office. On the night of the funeral he met privately de Gaulle, Pearson and Japanese Pre- mier Hayato Ikeda. Pearson called the meeting a "'warm and friendly beginning of what I hope will be a helpful and constructive relation- ship." On Wednesday the 55-year- old president addressed Con- gress and urged enactment of Kennedy's legislative pro- gram -- with particular em- phasis on civil rights. The next day Johnson spoke on television and called on Americans to eliminate injus- tice, intolerance and oppres- sion from the national life. He announced that the Flor- fda missile centre, Cape Ca- naveral, had been renamed Cape Kennedy and that a Florida space centre would also be named for Kennedy. Meanwhile, the New York Stock Exchange, which had plunged Friday on news of the president's death, regis- tered a record gain when it reopened Tuesday and then levelled off. WON'T CHANGE POLICY In Ottawa, External Affairs Minister Martin predicted that Kennedy's death would | not fundamentally alter U.S. policy. He told the Commons Thursday that the 'genuine dialogue' with Washington which the Libera] government "resumed" when it came into power will be maintained. In the same foreign policy debate, Martin also struck out sharply at South Africa's ra- cial policies and VParigg ode colonial system, calling them "di)-advised and repugnant," The main political spotlight in Canada was on the federal- provincial conference which opened in Ottawa Tuesday. Mr. Pearson told the con- ference Wednesday that his government will propose an increase, effective next year, in federal equalization grants to less-wealthy provinces. But he indicated the federal government will not propose any immediate increase in the basic provincial share of di- rect tax income shared by Ottawa and the provinces. Ronald Patrick Lippert, 31- year - old Canadian commer- cial pilot, was sentenced to 30 years' imprisonment 'n Ha- vana last Saturday after ad- mitting he smuggled explo- sives into Cuba for the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency. William Milne, 31-year-old Montreal pilot who was ar- rested with Lippert when they flew into Havana Oct. 24, was acquitted.

Nine days of public hear- ings into Ontario's tax laws and levies opened in Toronto Monday with a plea from the Ontario Bar Association for a tribunal to consider appeals against tax statutes. The as- sociation told the province's committee on taxation that many tax laws are badly written and need rewriting. The Ontario Medical Associa- tion recommended higher pre- miums for provincial hospital services to meet increasing costs, Glen John Sept. 16, of To- onto was sentenced Thursday to life imprisonment after an Ontario Supreme Court jury convicted him of non-capital murder in the bludgeoning death of accountant Ronald Grigor, 30, last July. Seip, 15 at the time, testified he bat- tered Grigor with a wrench while defending himself against homosexual advances in Grigor's apartment. Toronto - born soprano Ter- esa Stratas, 25, is resting in a Toronto hospital after under- going an operation Friday to stop internal bleeding that forced cancellation of the last two concerts in a two-month tour. The singer was brought to Toronto from London, Ont., Wednesday night, but was not strong enough for an imme- diate operation. Philip Givens, a 41-year-old lawyer, Monday was formally sworn in as mayor of Toronto, replacing Donald Summer- ville, 48, who died of a heart attack Nov. 19 after less than a year as mayor, Alderman William Archer, 44, was elected by a 12-to-7 vote to take Mr. Givens's position on the four-man board of control.

This was the rather startling pro- gress of North American stock markets generally this week. Tuesday's record gain on the New York market reverberated across the continent as orders to buy flooded brokers' offices. Even the most optimistic had been bracing themselves for a sharp decline as markets opened for the first time since Presi- dent Kennedy's assassination, Trading had been suspended on all North American markets Nov. 22 as the news broke of the president's death, A major slump was narrowly averted, but apparently investors recon- sidered over the following three days and what threatened to be a rout turned out to be a rous- ing vote of confidence in Presi- den Lyndon Johnson. Canadian markets registered gains that wiped out losses ex- perienced in the final few min- utes of trading Nov. 22. Mean- while New York was soaring to a record high as the Dow Jones average shot up 32 points.

EXPLAINS ABSENCE NEW DELHI (AP) -- Prime Minister Nehru told parliament Friday it would have been a 'physical impossibility" for im or Vice-President Zakir Husain to reach Washington in time to attend President Ken- nedy's funeral Monday.

But some observers are watching the market with jaun- diced eyes.

(CP) -- Two officials of the post office department moved this com- munity's post office 100 yards to:an empty store Friday. and put Mrs. Thomas Dillon, 46, in charge. The move came as a surprise to Mrs. Clare Stewart, 37, who has served as temporary post- master since the death of her 39-year-old ex-servicemen hus- band in August. She had been notified the move would take place today. Many of the 256 persons in this village said they would boy- test against the ousting of Mrs. Stewart, who has five children, Sewart, who has five children, | two of them under school age. | The villagers contend that the| change of postmistresses is aj matter of political patronage! and that Mrs. Stewart's need of! the job and her wishes of the} residents are being ignored by} the federal government, A petition with 190 names de- claring Mrs. Stewart a satis- factory postmistress was signed and then planned to picket the move. However, the department's action caught them unprepared. the department's district office in nearby Napanee. "They even parked the cars around behind the building,' one woman said.
