With another possible flag de- bate lurking menacingly in the wings, there was a toughening of tories Friday as opposition members zeroed in on the gov- ernment's handling of federal- provincial relations and respon- eibilities. "The charge I make is that the Pearson government is Can- ada's assassin and that you are all honorary pallbearers to this nation," shouted Eldon Wool- liams (PC -- Bow River) to the government benches. criticism over the alleged ero- sion of federal power in Can- ada, involving the government's "opting out' formula, and the proposed formula to amend the constitution in Canada, The cords of Confederation are be- 1 d, said the speakers. "The question we now are discussing . . . is so serious as to cause us to wonder about the very future and form of the chamber.in which we are speak- ing today," said Heath Mac- quarrie (PC--Queens). It was 'unbelievable' that the situation could change s0 quickly, said Heward Grafftey (PC -- Brome-Missisquoi), A year ago, he said, federal-pro- vincial relations were in a "'ter- rible state" because the central government wasn't even con- sulting the provinces on joint This was the tone - setting|p apeech that set off a chorus of - With Elect compet-| creasingly Federal Opposition Leader Diefenbaker is to address the convention Monday night, rograms. Transport Minister Pickersgill Ontario PCs Compete ion In U.S. liam Davis has been chosen by . Mr, Davis is being in- ed upon as the heir apparent to Premier Ro- barts in Ontario. More than 1,000 delegates-- five from each of the 108 rid- ings in Ontario, plus five ailter- natives -- are expected to at- tend the two-day convention. It will include meetings on Mon- day of the young Progressive Conservatives and the party's women's branch. The association will elect its slate of officers Tues- day. Elmer Bell, Ontario presi- dent, will be up for re-election. The party is instituting some- thing new this year -- an exper- iment that will see the whole of the provincial cabinet sub- y jected to questioning from the convention floor, The 18 cabinet ministers will be on the firing line for three any attempt will be made to embarrass the ministers, Con- servatives fee] some interesting questions could ensure. hours, While it is not expected! jumped to the defence of the formula, agreed on by the fed- eral and provincial govern- ments, under which future con- stitutional changes could be made without getting final ap- proval from Westminster. FULTON'S FORMULA He said the part of the form- ula under which federal powers could be delegated to the prov- inces--and this involved most of the arguments Friday--is iden- tical to the formula drawn up by former Conservative justice minister E, Davie Fulton, Mr. Pickersgill said Mr. Dief- enbaker took responsibility for this when he was prime minis- ter "'and when we put it for- ward in precisely the same terms, he condemns our gov- ernment for doing something that he did, and that we ap- prove of and agree should con- tinue to be done, .. . "Of course, if the right hon- orable gentleman (Mr. Diefen- baker) thinks he made a grave mistake at that time and wants to change his mind, he can get up honestly and say 'I made a fool of myself when I was prime minister'... ." Under the formula, any four provinces, with the approval of the federal parliament, can be given responsibility over cer- tain federal fields. Creditiste Leader Real Caou- ette said there was no doubt that the constitution must be modernized -- even the Queen suggested it when she spoke in ebec City earlier this month. e said it was unfair for mem- bers to single out Quebec when talking about the increasing re- sponsibilities of provinces. "Quebec does not want any spe- cial favors." He compared Canada with a family of 10 children, each of whom was an individual and each having different needs. But each having respect for each other in a united family, "Let us ..stop accusing each other in such an unreasonable way."

Experts also said that while the thieves took gems valued at more than $300,000, their choices did not indicate expert knowledge. They took unique and easily idettifiable stones, difficult to cut, while many costly gems that would be more salable were ignored. once they pass the age of 70. ; pr, Heist The city-owned museum, with about 1,000,000 square feet of space in 18 buildings, had only seven guards on duty during the night and museum officials ~ been pleading for more staff. Detectives inspecting the dis- play cases from which the gems were taken also found two burglar systems, neither in operation. Caretakers found the glass shattered in three exhibit cases. One case contained only three stones. The Star of India, 2% inches in diameter and weigh- ing 563,35 carats or nearly a quarter of a pound, is valued at $100,000 but is actually price- less.

The third stone was Was a _ purplish 'midnight sapphire," about the same size as the ruby and valued at $35,- | 000, None of the gems was in- sured, The gems taken.from the other two cases were diamonds and emeralds ranging in value from chips worth $10 to a 15.37- carat diamond crystal valued at 000. 4 ' NEW YORK (AP) -- The long-debated broadcast debate finally came off between lican Senator or raed ing and his Democratic challen- ger, Robert F. Kennedy. It lasted 1%4-hours, ending early today. The topics covered such di- verse items as Keating's voting record, Kennedy's role as a mediator in the snare 2 sia dispute, teamsters' union president James R. Hoffa, re- apportionment of state legisla- tures, aid to President Nasser of the United Arab Republic and the leadership of a senator from New York. The debate was orderly. Both men remained calm throughout the radio. program. Most of the pre-debate wrangling had been over formats for a television de- bate. Kennedy attacked Keating's voting record on housing, 'fed- eral aid to education and aid to drepressed areas. He said Keating had voted more consistently with Senator Barry Goldwater, the Republi: 'ean presidential nominee whom he has refused to endorse, than with Jacob K. Javits, New York's senior Republican sena- tor. 'Keating accused Kennedy of the "most outrageous distor- tions" of his record through "'nit-picking" and said he re- sented hig liberalism being questioned. 4 When Keat ng complained that Kennedy had been careless in quoting his record, the for- mer attorney-general said: "All the statements are in the record. Maybe you'd like to erase your record. But it's there." Tuesday night, Keating bought a half hour on local tele- Thomson Admits Takeover Defeat LONDON (Reuters) -- Lord Thomson, Canadian-born news- paper magnate, formally ac- knowledged Friday his defeat in a takeover battle for the Glas-|j gow Herald, one of Scotland's leading daily newspapers.

Keating said Kennedy had accepted the challenge too late and the TV station could not let him walk in at the last minute. Balloting NEW YORK (AP) -- Women outnumber men in the U.S.-- but not at the polls, Tuesday's presidential elec- tion is expected to underline this fact of politica! life, Bureau of the census figures for 1964 show that there are about $64,600,000 men of voting' age in the United States com- pared with 69,200,000 women. Yet if experience means any- thing, it is the male vote that will decide the election. In 1960, with the population figures slightly lower but the sex ratio about the same, more than 1,000,000 more men showed up to vote than did women, Why don't more women vote? REASONS VARY Researchers have come up with a variety of reasons for 1960's general 10-per-cent differ- ence in voting turnout between men _ women, lyk oy down to women conside poli- tics dirty and unladylike and best left up to men. One of the country's more knowledgeable women __ voters and one who has decided views on the subject is Mrs. Robert Stuart, president of the non-par- tisan League of Women Voters. se t, of all," 6he says, "women have not been able to function as citizens as long as men have, They are not s0 aware of their responsibility as citizens. "Then, there are attitudes in the family that oe have to be overcome. Up until 1020, you ing voting really was a man's ob." Although there is always talk of a women's vote--or women's bloc~Mrs. Stuart, atong with many researchers, doesn't think it exists. "Women vote just like men do--for many different reasons.

More than 1,200 persons were pressed into three ballrooms for drinks, a six-course dinner, two fashion shows, a crack at the all - for - charity roulette wheels and dice games, some frenzied frugging or watusi-ing to the discotheque band, and for a sing-along with Sammy Davis Jr. Much of the party was ar- ranged in Paris by a committee and shipped over a planeload at a time. For instance, Mrs. Alfred Levitt, in charge of the decor, banked several U.S, - bound planes with ferns and palms as well as 12,000 carnations and 6,000 roses from Paris, many of lwhich adorned the carved wooden "um-holding statues on the tables. Other imports for the eve- ning included mayors of French towns, an- orchestra, a dis- cotheque: singer; fashions, and titled bluebloods, Despite the extravagant show the ball is expected to net a profit of $200,000 once the chips are counted. Much of the money is to be used by the French Hospital of New York and Cabinet Minister Blasts TV-Women CALGARY (CP) --- Women today are not too worried that their children watch sex and violence on television, Ethel Wilson, minister without port- folio in the Alberta cabinet said Thursday. Mrs. Wilson told the Calgary Council of Social Credit Wom- en's Auxiliaries: 'A few years ago we would not have toler- ated violence and sex on tele- vision. We would have tossed the sets outside. "But today women are not too interested in what their children are doing. "And if anyone tells you vis- ual factors do not teach chil- dren, ask them why we are put- ting television in, school class- rooms," Se Referring to recent criticism of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, Mrs. Wilson said "this battle should be the great- est clean-up in Canadian TV.
