Cut Senate Funds Off MP's Plan OTTAWA (CP)--Frank How- ard, New Democratic MP for Skeena, said in the Commons Friday night the Senate shoul be starved of funds until it withers on the vine. He moved to reduce to $1 a $107,600 additional appropria- tion for the appointed upper house but his amendment was defeated 55 to 4. The only Creditiste present, Gerard Lapr se (Chapleau), voted with Mr. Howard and two other New Democrats, Arnold Peters (Timiskaming) and Tom Barnett (Comox-Alberni). The amendment was opposed by the Liberals, Conservatives and Social Credit Leader Thompson and A. B. Patterson (SC--Fraser Valley). Mr. Howard described the up- per house as a "useless, super- fluous and luxurious append- age" to Parliament. Far from being a house of "sober second thought," it was an exclusive and lethargic club of retired politicians and con- tributors to the party in office. Senate reform had been dis- cussed since the early days of Confederation, but nothing had been changed and the upper chamber had accamplished nothing worthwhile. He proposed that senators' $15,000 annual salaries and Sen- ate operating expenses all be reduced to $1 in future Com- mons votes. ' This probably would be the only way to abolish the Senate since no senator in his right mind would vote to abolish his job. The blunt MP was cautioned at one point by Deputy Speaker Lucien Lamoureux that he was coming close to breaking stand- ing Rule 35, which prohibits members from using abusive language about either house of Parliament and the members. Transport Minister Pickers- gill said Mr. Howard was mak- ing a futile speech. He referred to a government bill on the or- der paper to require future sen- ators to retire at age 75. Mr. Howard said this type of "bland, anaemic reform" was worthless. Levesque Rap 'Unauthorized' MONTREAL (CP)--Noranda Mines Limited said Friday a statement issued on its behalf and branding Quebec resources minister Rene Levesque a union "puppet" was not author- ized by the company's officers. "The company regrets that this unauthorized release was made," Noranda said in a two-| sentence statement. The press release, distributed in Montreal Thursday, accused Mr. Levesque of making "vague and unsupported" dec. larations during a tour of north- ern Quebec mines earlier this) week. | The release added that the| minister had been "fed inform- ation from a very questionable source of which he has become a puppet." That source, said Thursday's release, was the United Steelworkers of Amer-| ica (CLC). | The Friday statement said:| "Noranda Mines Limited to-| day stated that a press release} made April ist to Montreal) newspapers, concerning the re- cent remarks of the honorable| Rene Levesque regarding the mines of northwestern Quebec, | had not been authorized by the) officers of the company.

The allegations, by Montreal lawyer Pierre Lamontagne, are that the aides subjected him to attempted bribery or political coercion to arrange bail for Ri- vard, wanted in the U.S. on narcotics conspiracy charges.

Bor- 'Sick Society Firing Factor MONTREAL (CP)--The Con- federation of National Trade Unions said Friday the dismis- sal of Gerard Pelletier as ed- itor - in - chief of Montreal La Presse "is only a symptom of profound sickness affecting . . | much of our society." The labor group, which has a membership of 140,000, said in) a statement: "The system of freedom that 1960 -- alas, often as a matter of lip-service -- has so pro- voked a number of persons in high places that they are led into the most senseless sorts of action." It was in 1960 that the pres- ent Liberal government of Que- bec was elected after 16 years of government by the Union Nationale Party. Mr. Pelletier was dismissed from his post Tuesday.

Per Week Judy Uncovers Campaign For 'Cancer Drug' Return OTTAWA (CP)--Health Min- ister Judy LaMarsh told the Commons Friday night that there seems to be some cam- paign to have an alleged can- cer control drug returned to the Canadian market. She made the statement after Gerald W. Baldwin (PC--Peace River) read letters from three terminal cancer patients com- plaining about the withdrawal of the drug Latrill. All of the letter writers said the drug had been a big help to them. Mr. Baldwin asked whether some method couldn't be de- vised so that it would be made available to patients who had fino other hope. He said he could not vouch for the effects of the drug but was touched by the sincerity of the letters. ASKED FOR PROOF Miss LaMarsh, who said she received similar letters, said manufacturers of the drug had their claims as to the effective- ness of the drug. They had re- fused to comply and under the terms of the Food and Drug Act -- from the Canadian mar- et, It would not be possible to say that Latrill served any use- ful purpose until it had been properly tested and the proof furnished to the government. She said it was beyond her powers as a minister to make the drug available to terminal patients while it didn't meet government requirements, Besides, furnishing 'an un- tested drug might do more harm than good. There always was the chance that a proven cancer cure might be found. Arnold Peters (NDP--Timisk- aming) said perhaps the re- quirements of the Food and Drug Act were too stringent. The government should take a close look at them to see if been. asked for years to prove changes couldn't be made. LONDON (AP) -- Agreement on joint British-French produc- tion of a supersonic warplane rivaling America's F-111 is re- ported near as Prime Minister Wilson and President de Gaulle wind up two days of talks in Paris today. A formal announcement from the two leaders was expected at the close of their confer- ence. Agreement on joint produc- jtion of a sophisticated jet fighter with variable - sweep wings would continue the pre- cedent set by work on the giant Concorde supersonic passenger {transport. An angry political storm jbrewed in London, where the government announced -- after Wilson's departure Friday--that it i sscrapping the multi-billion- dollar project for development of a tactical strike reconnais- jsance airplane, the TSR-2. SEES TRAGEDY Christopher Soames, who Anglo-French Jet Project Follows TSR-2 Scrapping speaks for the opposition Con- servatives on aircraft policy, said cancellation of the project will be a tragedy for Britain's aircraft industry and the whole country. About 10,000 aircraft |workers are involved in the de- cision. A new policy of joint develop- ment with France of an F-111- type plane might, however, save not only most of the jobs but Britain's aircraft industry itself. The F-111, which created a storm in the United States as the TFX (tactical ifghter exper- imental), first flew' last Dec. 21 and , made its first supersonic flight March 5. The plane has drawn praise for its exceptional performances to date. Never before has a plane featuring the retractable swept wings performed so well. The sweep-wing concept per- mits the plane to fly at slow as well as supersonic speeds and to take off and land in short \distances. 'Persecution | By RONALD LEBEL OTTAWA (CP) Toronto lawyer Joseph Sedgwick re- ported today that he found little basis for allegations aired in the Commons and the press last year that 24 aliens facing de- portation were jailed unlawfully and denied access to counsel. The 40-page report was tabled in the Commons shortly before 2 a.m. EST in the final mo- ments of the 1964-65 session. Mr. Sédgwick was appointed June 19 by Justice Minister Favreau to conduct an infor- mal inquiry into the allega- tions.

Loses Again | TORONTO (CP) -- The On- tario Court of Appeal ruled Fri- day against a former suburban York Township reeve who ob- tained a closed township road and built his $25,000 house on it. The court handed down its de- cision in a 51-page report that} condemned the action of Chris- topher Tonks and allowed an appeal of April 9, 1963, by Tonks' neighbors, Mr. and Mrs. John Caird Reid. Lawyer F. M. Catzman, coun-| sel for the Reids, said the land) really belongs to York Town-| ship and that, technically, the| township cannot sell the land without first offering it to Tonks' neighbors. This was up- held. The Reids questioned a series of decisions of York Township in 1956, by which the road was closed and the land later pur- chased by Tonks through nom-) inees. | He paid $6,600 for the 66-foot lot and a bylaw was altered that would have prevented him from building the house on a lot with less than 70-foot front- age.
