OTTAWA (CP) -- Does the Supreme Court of Canada have the right to determine whether a dead duck is wild or tame? This issue faced the court 'Thursday in an appeal case con- cerning the right of Indians to shoot game birds out of season. The case involves an appeal by treaty Indian Michael Sikyea of the Yellowknife band near the mining town of Yellowknife, N.W.T., against his conviction for shooting a mallard duck in May, 1962, contrary to game regulations. He was fined $10 and costs. ¢ j | Sikyea appealed his conviction successfully before Mr. Justice H. H. Sissons of the territorial court of the Northwest Territor- ies. Mr. Justice Sissons quashed the conviction on grounds that the Canada - United States- Mexico Migratory Birds Con- vention Act of 1916 dealt with the indiscriminate slaughter of birds and had no application to treaty rights enjoyed by Indians to hunt for food. | However, Mr. Justice G. G. Johnson of the territorial appeal) court reversed this decision and tory bird regulations infringe on Indian treaty rights, Indians who shoot birds out of season are breaking the law. THROWN INTO TIZZY The court was thrown into a legal tizzy Wednesday when the judges noted that Mr. Justice Sissons had said in his judg- ment that there was no evi- dence to prove the mallard shot by Sikyea was a wild bird. They said that unless the duck was wild Sikyea could not charged with violating the mi- gratory bird regulations. ° Mr. Justice Sissons had found as a fact that there was no evidence that the duck was wild. There could be no appeal to either the territorial appeal court or the Supreme Court from a finding of fact. The two courts had jurisdiction to hear appeals only on errors in law. However, D. H. Christie, coun- sel for the attorney-general of Canada, who is opposing Sik- yea's appeal,' argued Thursday that the question of whether the duck is wild or tame is one of law. He said a number of British judgments supported his argument that a Canadian ap- peal court has the right to de- termine whether a bird is wild or tame despite ary type of be/ evidence before a trial court. | William Morrow of Edmonton, | counsel for Sikyea, said he was prepared to admit that the duck his client shot was wild. The court reserved decision on whether it has the right to hear Sikyea's appeal and agreed \to hear evidence on the main | issue. Pearson Meddles With CBC: Fisher By M. McINTYRE HOOD -Special to The Oshawa Times. LONDON -- Although he is no longer in office, and will not be a candidate for the Bromley constituency in the October gen- eral election, Harold Macmillan is like an old war-horse champ- ing at the bit and eager to enter the fray. He is desperately keen to make a political come-back, not for any personal. reasons, but in order to place his ex- perience and prestige at the disposal of the Tory party in its bid to remain in office. The Con- servative campaign managers are now wrestling with the prob- lem of where and how Mr. Mac- millan's services can be used to the best advantage in the elec- tion campaign. Mr. Macmillan is quite pre-| pared to go on the hustings, and would like to start off by mak- ing one or two speeches in se- lected constituencies. He has, in fact, shown his willingness to speak for_his party by address- ing a by-election meeting at De- lvizes. This was his, first outside political engagement since he retired last October. And it was one he could not have accepted had he still been prime minis- ter, because there is a sort of unwritten law that prime minis- liters and opposition leaders do jnot intervene personally by] d : on | MacMillan Back In U.K. Politics speaking in by-election cam- paigns. In addition te making a limit- ed number of speeches in se- lected constituencies, such as Bromley, his old seat; Halifax, where his son Maurice is the Tory candidate and Preston, being defended by his son-in- law, Julian Amery, the Tory campaign managers have other ideas for making use of him, It is quite possible 'that he might be asked wo assume the "elder statesman'"' role as an adviser attached to the Conservative Central office. This would give him a post of some importance at the party headquarters while the Prime Minister, Sir Alec Douglas-tiome, is touring the country, SOME 'DOUBTS It -cansot be 'said, however, that this' scale of participation 'by Mr. Macmillan in the elec- tion campaign will be welcom- ed with unreserved enthusiasm throughout the Conservative party. Some of the cabinet mem- bers would be better pleased if he stayed out of the cam- paign entireiy. They fear that to have the former party leader playing too prominent a part in the campaign might be a bit confusing to many voters, But their greatest fear is that Mr. Macmillan might detract from the massive projection which is planned for Sir Alec Douglas- restored the conviction.

X. Geaghan, counsel for the wife, Edna Kamlet. ' Her husband, Dr. Jones Kam- let, one of 134 persons killed:in the accident, was credited with developing a tablet for diabetic diagnosis. He was 46 and had a consulting firm. \ Under terms of the settlement, approved by a state supreme court justice, Henry. Clay Green- berg, United Air Lines would pay $402,118; Trans World Air- lines $98,881, and the U.S. gov- ernment $144,000. The lines operated the planes involved in the collision. The U.S. government was named as a defendant also because the Federal Aviation Agency had been issuing instructions to the planes at the time of the crash.
