2 THEOSHAWA TIMES, Thursday, April 8, 1965 Deslauriers Admits Lying. Says Dupuis By RUSSELL PEDEN ST. JOHNS, Que. (CP) -- Racetrack promoter Roch Des- lauriers testified Wednesday he made false statements to the RCMP in January after Yvon Dupuis, former federal minis ter without portfolio, assured| him the matter would never come up in court. Mr. Deslauriers, a 31 - year old St. Johns chiropractor, re- fours the witness box today for his sixth day of testimony at Mr. Dupuis' preliminary hearing on influence - peddling charges. The chiropractor has said he gave the former cabinet minis- ter $10,000 in 1961 to use his influence to get the Quebec government to issue a charter to operate a racetrack at nearby St. Luc. Mr. Deslauriers testified Wednesday that Mr. Dupuis cautioned him: last December not to say anything about the racetrack application if ques- tioned by the RCMP. He became very nervious at this point, but he gave the RCMP a statement Jan. after Mr. Dupuis assured him the matter would "never get to court." CONSULTS LAWYER He then consulted his lawyer, Henri Choiniere, who advised him to go back to the police and tell them the whole story. He said he did so Jan. 18. Under cross - examination, Mr. Deslauriers admitted the second statement was 16 "not Condoned It He said he had made the January statements, and later ones dated Feb. 5 and March 3, without threats or lpromises. There had been "no lpressure" from the RCMP. None of the statements was made public, but relevant por- tions were made available to the defence for cross - exam- ination. Mr. Deslauriers also told the court that, while in Mr. Dupuis Ottawa office last Dec. 16, he was promised that 'French- Canadians will have their flag by Christmas, and you will get your racetrack." INTRODUCED AS 'THINKER' He said the promise was made by Real Rousseau, a mat he said was introduced to him a week earlier by Mr. Dupuis as a "thinker" for Prime Min- ister Pearson. The chiropractor also has referred to Mr. Rous- seau in his testimony as an intermediary between Mr. Pearson and Quebee Premier Lesage. | He said he met Mr. Rousseau again in Montreal Dec. 26, and two|* ARE POTHOLES WILL OF GOD? ESPANOLA, Ont. (CP)-- Potholes in the streets are the will of God and not'the responsibility of the commu- nity, town council decided Wednesday. Considering two cc m- plaints from angry motor- ists in this Northern Ontario town of 5,300, council ruled against paying the tow - truck costs of rescuing cars stuck in potholes. "If we pay," said Mayor Fern Giroux, "we may well have another 100 motorists to satisfy." People Cooi To Wilson's By MICHAEL GILLAN OTTAWA (CP) -- Leon Bal- cer's critics have expressed pleasure at his decision to bolt the Progressive Conservatives to sit as an independent but some in the party fear the step will hurt the PCs for years. Mr. Balcer, 47, has been a thorn in Opposition Leader Diefenbaker's side, both before and after January, 1964, when it was agreed he would be appointed the party's Quebec leader. The unofficial reaction from a spokesman in the opposition leader's office was "'good rid- dance." Others, however, say his de* parture will cause more prob . . lems for the party than it will solve.

This support will be needed, many observers say, if the party is to regain power with a majority in the future. Only last weekend the pro- vincial: party executive in Que- bec unanimously endorsed Mr. Balcer's leadership of the Que- bec wing. Mr. Balcer's strong criticism of the party itself has caused dismay. Trhoughout his attempt to un- seat Mr. Diefenbaker, he spoke as though a change in leader- ship would be sufficient to start the party on a new course to- wards an accommodation with Quebec members. But his comments to report- ers following his announcement to the Commons had the ring of a swan song to the party. A leadership change is not enough now, he said.

SURPRISES MANY This critical view of the party surprised many. Mr. Balcer is a former' cabinet minister and a past president of the PC Na- tional Association. Some reports have said Mr. Balcer plans to join the Liberal party or lead a group of inde- pendent Conservatives and So- cial Credit members from Que- bec. He says he has no plans to do either, only to run as an in- |dependent in the next election. And, with a smile, he says he knows he will retain his con- stituency.
