East German army officers showed up in several vehicles a few yards from the Western checkpoint outside. West Berlin. They unloaded a temporary barrier and at 6 p.m. it was placed across the four - lane highway. At Heimstedt, the West Ger- man end of the autobahn, East German border guards lowered the barriers at the same time.

Police in Peru have jaunc hed! an intensive search for Rivard following the tip from Interpol, the international police organ- ization. ; Javier Campos Montoya, - di- rector of the Peruvian police investigations department, said U.S. police also have asked for Rivard's detention. Rivard was being held in Montreal pending 'the outcome of extradition proceedings Jaunched by U.S. authorities. A Texas grand jury wants Rivard to face narcotics-smug- gling and conspiracy charges. Closed Again Earlier, harassment might be at an end when the highway remained open throughout the morning. A U.S. military convoy of four vehicles and nine men was cleared for West Berlin and ci- vilian traffic moved both ways! on the autobahn. But there was a marked slow-| down of traffic entering the West German end of the 110- mile highway.

The act, drawn up by the On- tario Law Reform Commission, is designed to bring Ontario practice into line with that in the United Kingdom and 'the United States.

Troubles in following the rule have cropped up because the courts have decided that some wills may direct the disposition of property for a period that may extend more than 21 years beyond the death of the life in being. The approach of the proposed} jlegislation would be to wait and see what does happen instead of voiding the gift at the' time of the testator's death because certain events might or might|~ position of his property only for|:. part in contributing to the suc- cess of the plan."'

In the same speech, the prime minister suggested a pause" in U.S. bombing of North Viet Nam. The following day he met Mr. Johnson, spending two hours discussing the proposals, along with other North American matters.

No date was set for either ex- ecution, but it was believed they would be carried out swiftly. The court sentenced the driver of the getaway motor- bike in the embassy bombing, Nguyen Van Hai, 27, despite the Viet Cong's threat to execute an |American civil prisoner in re- jprisal. In an afternoon session, the court gave a death sentence to Tran Van Dang, who was. ar- rested March 20 near the Sai- gon airport with 25 pounds of high explosive on his motor scooter. Police said he and an accomplice who escaped were going to plant the explosive at lan n officers' " billet in the area. -| Nations, Canada Pledges Support To LBJ's Asia-Aid Plans dent made specific proposals-- that his government contribute $1,000,000,000 as a starter. Mr. Martin told the Com- mons Thursday that the Cana- dian ambassador to the United Pau] Tremblay, has come to Ottawa to discuss the proposals this country will with the project. There was agreement among opposition parties for support- ing it. FITTED FOR ROLE Mr. Martin said Canada "is particularly fitted to play a role because of our long association with many of the countries of Southeast Asia." When Mr. Pearson spoke in Philadelphia Friday night -- where he received a university peace award -- he proposed that the Mekong River basin project; which embraces Indo- china, Thailand and part of southern China, be enlarged in a "spectacular way." political, columnists in the New York Herald - Tribune, "the president felt that the . prime minister was. stretching diplo- matic courtesy when he made his Viet Nam proposal in Phila- delphia only a few hours before his Saturday luncheon with the president." But sources close to the meet- ing of the two leaders say the president gave no indication of such feelings. A key part of Mr. Pearson's suggestion was that the bombings might be tempor- arily suspended "at the right time." The prime minister has not said he feels this is the right time, and the president obvi- ously does not think it is. The |\timing of any such pause was believed to be a major point in the discussions. The two men also talked at length about the development scheme which, as it turns out, was high in the president's mind at the time. But persons at the camp said there were no signs of any resentment. 'Two Viet Cong Terrorists Sentenced To Swift Death There is no appeal from sen- tences of the five-man court, but Chief of State Phan Khac Suu could commute tence. The Viet Cong said Wednes- day that if Hai was executed, it would execute Gustav C. Hertz, 46, a U.S. and mission official captured on Feb, 2. No mention was made of the Viet Cong threat during Hai's trial. In Washington, the White House was informed of Hai's sentence but made no com- ment. The state department said earlier that Hertz, of Lees- 'burg, Va., "has committed no offence" and should be ac- corded the "basic humanitarian protection demanded by inter- national law and rudimentary standards of decency."

"We should have access to the letters that were sign- ed which gave an undertak- ing to the government on the part of the auto com- panies," Mr. Starr said. "But this correspondence has been kept secret and no one can find out the ground rules laid down in those let- ters." He said that the agree- ment not only affects the auto industry but it had also affected small parts manu- facturers in other areas of the country. It would affect them more as lay-offs oc- curred among their workers with no provision on the government to care for such displaced people. "The Canadian. govern- ment was anxious to rush into this agreement but up till how it has been a one- way agreement which has been implemented by Can- ada but not by the United States," the former labor minister said. Mr. Starr noted that the throne speech made much of a war on poverty but the 'REHASH OF Mr. Starr said the prime minister apparently had less faith in his ministers than almost everyone else as he was taking over the role of personal co-ordinator of the various programs planned. This was not surprising, he suggested, in view of the past performances of many of the ministers in and out- side the House. He said people in his rid- ing who are engaged in farming have told him that prices were as low as they have ever been and that something must be done about the inertia of the min- ister of agriculture. The Ontario MP said that the conduct of the business of the House was the re- sponsibility of the govern- LEGISLATION' SLAMS | HON.

The Communists apparently were in no hurry to say no to Johnson's offer Wednesday night that also included a huge! economic development program for Southeast Asia under United| Nations auspices. However, President Ho Chi Minh of North Viet Nam called for a U.S. withdrawal from South Viet Nam before any settlement of the war is dis- cussed. This the U.S. refuses! to do.

He charged the govern- ment had done nothing for the third large group of Ca- nadians, those who were neither of English nor French origin. "At first they thought their cultures and traditions were going to be integrated but they are now at a loss to know where they stand be- cause the emphasis is going to be. on two cultures and two languages," Mr. Starr said, 'The speech was dub- bed as a war on poverty but it was nothing but a re- hash of existing legislation." Cuba Holds 47 Ministers, Charge They HAVANA (AP) -- The Castro government is holding 47 Bap- tist preachers -- including two Americans--and 13 laymen as spies for the United States. A spokesman for the Western Cuban Baptist Convention said two-thirds of the Baptist min- rg in western Cuba are in jail. Swiss Ambassador Emil Sta- delhofer planned to take up the matter with the foreign minis- try today. Stadelhofer, who han- dies U.S. interests in Cuba, has not been permitted to see the arrested men. The Americans are Rey. Her- bert Caudill, 61, head of the convention and a _ missionary here the last 35 years; and his son-in-law, Rev. James David Their wives and relatives of the other men were notified they would be able to visit the prisoners next Tuesday. Mrs. Caudill refused to com- ment on her husband's arrest except to remark that they had "not faced any trouble before in Cuba and were dedicated to teaching and preaching." Cuban authorities picked up seven ministers in outlying provinces some days ago. At dawn Thursday, raiding parties searched homes and churches in the Havana area, arresting 40 preachers and the 13 laymen. Spy For U.S. Caudill was arrested at the Baptist Seminary in Havana, where he lived and taught. Cuba's government ra- dio charged that Caudill and the other churchmen, "working under the cloak of religion, or- ganized a counter-revolutionary group for missions of espionage and subversion." Caudill returned to the United States last year for surgery on a detached retina. Dr. Arthur B.
