« THE OSHAWA TIMES, Fridey, June 26, 1964 Pearsons Pull Thorn To CBC OTTAWA (CP) -- A letter tabled in the Commons Thurs- day by Prime Minister Pearson revealed that a high - ranking CBC official disapproved of the way in which Mr. Pearson was given control over production of the ill-fated CBC documentary, Mr. Pearson. The letter was written to the prime minister last Jan. 28 by Reeves Haggan, general super- visor of public affairs programs for the BC. Mr. Haggan wrote that he had just learned of a Sept. 23 letter to the prime minister's office from Richard Ballentine, direc- tor of the Pearson film project, in which Mr. Ballentine had promised that he would cut out any sequence the prome minis- ter objected to. (Mr. Ballentine, an independ- ent Toronto television producer, filmed the documentary on a $35,000 contract with the CBC but the corporation subsequently decided against broadcasting the program.) Mr. Haggan said the prime minister was "fully entitled to raise objections' to film por- tions that invaded his private life or secret conversations, but he opposed a complete veto power over the film's contents. SEES OUTCOME The CBC official said such a veto power would mean "'a com- plete abdication of our respon- sibility" by the CBC and could result in "well-founded accusa- tions that the corporation is political partiality" in favor of Mr. Pearson, fied and set aside."

Ottawa Ponders Peril Tag OTTAWA (CP) -- Canada is waiting for a report from an ad- visory committee on smoking before it decides whether to fol- low the United States and order cigarette makers to label their wares as a hazard to health. Health Minister Judy La- Marsh, who abandoned smoking last year to set an example for others, says the government isn't sure it has the power to impose such a warning on cig- arette packages--even if it de- cided to do so. She told the Commons Thurs- day that the government-spon- sored advisory committee, set up after last November's con- ference of doctors, provincial and federal health officials, to- bacco growers and cigarette manufacturers, is actively con- sidering the question of cigar- ette promotion and advertising. "Tt appears to be as much a question of whether the federal government can do it as it is whether to do it," she said. "When they make a report to bas -- 'od action or no action, necessary to ascer- tain whether the federal govern- ment can take such action and then to decide whether the fed- eral government wishes to do so."

Nobody apart from the Social Credit Leader Thompson men- tioned whether or not the rou- tine supply bill should be passed. He said the House/fl should endorse it quickly and get on to important legislation. Mr. Thompson thus joined in a side discussion in which it was generally agreed something should be done to expedite par- liamentary business. But there was no agreement on how. The Commons today continues the supply debate, filling oul the week with it.

ANNOUNCES DECISION State Secretary Lamontagne announced to the House the CBC board of directors' decision to uphold the CBC's earlier de- termination not to show the $35,- 000 documentary Mr. Pearson, based on a day in the life of he prime minister.

In the debate that followed, Douglas Fisher (NDP -- Port Arthur) said he believed Mr.|t Pearson had not directly inter- vened to prevent the film be- ing shown on television.
