Mr. Pearson said he had known Mr. Kierans always to be sensitive about any appar- ent intrusion of the federal gov- ernment into provincial affairs. He had expected the Quebec minister to be equally sensitive about provincial intrusion into Ottawa's field of responsibility. The conduct of foreign policy, "which includes foreign eco- nomic policy,' is exclusively federal under the constitution, Mr. Pearson said. He said there had been '"'no consultation at all' between ment--and Mr. Pearson said he used the words in their consti- tutional sense to describe the provinces--conducted its own foreign affairs, there would be 11 foreign policies in Canada.

This was announced Friday night at the end of a two-day closed federal - provincial con- ference that studied many ways of stepping up the fight against organized crime. Provincial attorneys - general welcomed the federal plans and called for numerous amend- ments to the Criminal Code and other laws to combat multi-mil- lion - dollar rackets in bank- ruptcies, stocks swindles, arson, Dorion report on the Lucien Ri- vard affair, which scored the RCMP's handling of a major in- vestigation and lack of biling- ualism. | The communique issued at! the end of the talks also an- nounced that parliament will be| asked this year to amend the!

The implied threat was that these new policies would not be as favorable to American interests as such policies have been in the past. Mr. Pearson said the letter would be an ambarrassment to Washington. This was borne out by the comment of a commerce department s pokes man who said the state department would have to be consulted on how Washington should deal with '"'a subordinate govern- ment" in Canada. The prime minister also ob- served that Mr. Kierans had used "'some very strange ter- minology" in his letter, refer- ring to "Canada and Quebec." Mr. Pearson said he wasn't sure that Mr. Kierns wasn't purporting to-speak for Can- ada, and "that was inappropri- ate also." taken USUAL eH When news reached Ottawa - Friday morning of the Kierans letter to Washington, there was first consternation and then some political hilarity here. Spokesmen of the finance and external affairs departments simply said they had no com- ment. Opposition Leader Diefen- baker said Washington should send the letter back to Mr. Kierans as unacceptable, just as he would send a similar letter back to the state of New York if he had received such a thing as prime minister. Others spoke darkly of the cept to note that they differed from the views of the provin- cial premier when the U.S. guidelines for foreign invest- ment were announced Dec. 6. "Mr. Lesage issued a state- ment then that was rather dif- ferent from the one Mr. Kier- ans makes in his letter," he said. (Mr. Lesage, speaking in Quebec City on Dec. 6 about an increase in the Bank of Can- ada bank interest rate and the guidelines announced the same day in Washington, said "vofun- tary sacrifices" would be neces- sary to "limit the inflationary tendencies which we are wit- gender and nourish "the spiral of inflation.") Both Mr. Kierans and Pre- mier Lesage said the letter was sent without the knowledge of the premier and his cabinet. Mr. Lesage told reporters in Quebec City that the letter was "personal." "It was not submitted to the cabinet," he said, and he him- self knew nothing about it be fore it was sent or published. He made no comment on the letter's contents. Mr. Kierans said in Montreal that he hadn't questioned the Kierans letter as a fresh indi- cation of Quebec's determina- tion to run its affairs as a sov- ereign, sociated from the rest of Can- ada.

The talks were to resume later today. "I would say there has been some progress -- some small gain," said Garrett. But, he added, "a substantial amount of ground" remained to be cov- ered. Negotiations are between the transit authority, headed by Jo- seph E, O'Grady, and tht Transport Workers union and Amalgamated Transit Workers, both AFL-CIO. ACCUSE AUTHORITY TWU Vice-President L. MacMahon, the union's chief negotiator, Friday accused the Transit Authority of trying to break the union by refusing to release TWU President Michael J. Quill and eight other union of- ficials from jail. Quill, who collapsed after the nine were jailed for civil con- tempt Tuesday, was reported improving in hospital. The un- ion officials were arrested for contempt in refusing to obey a state court injunction against the strike, O'Grady asked the State Su- preme Court to assess the strik- damages for every day of the| strike. Commerce throughout the city is suffering as the strike keeps shoppers away from the mid- town business area and forces 20 per cent of the city's labor force to miss work.
