Common Market. In the clearest outline yet pro- vided on the Labor govern-| ment's Common Market policy,/ Brown said in a speech pre-| pared for a socialist's confer-| ence here that Britain insists! that five principles must be pre-| served if it is to enter the Euro- pean trade bloc These are: Safeguards for British farmers; safeguards for European Free Trade Associa- tion partners; freedom to allow Britain to pursue its own for- sign policy and the preserva- tion of British rights to plan its wn economy. Brown, economics | minister charged with exploring Com- mon Market entry, said he does not believe these problems are Insurmountable. but some pre- sent major difficulties. THINKS AHEAD "It is clear,' he said, "that if Britain were to enter the Eu- ropean Economic Community and apply the common agricul- tural policy as it now stands, it could have profound effects on the pattern of our imports from New Zealand, Australia and Canada--the heart of the over- seas Commonwealth. "At present Britain's imports from them are free of duty and many items enjoy a tariff pref- erence over the same products imported from foreign countries. |mendous GM OUTPUT CUT FOR FIRST TIME IN FIVE YEARS By CHARLES C.

Mastino Della Scala told the leotenae at investigating the cotlapse of the multi-million dol- lar Atlantic Acceptance Corp. last June how Mr. Morgan, then president of Atlantic, helped save his company, DHI Ltd., which manufactures alum- inum windows, woodwork- ing products and kitchens was founded by Mr. Scala in 1956, five years after he arrived in Canada from Romania. He said financial difficulties left him with only a 20-per-cent interest in the company, the ba- lance being owned by Interpro- vincial Factors Ltd., which pur- chased the majority interest for $450,000.

Dr. Cotnam also expressed alarm at the number of reports of "barbiturate and other drug deaths" coming into his office. "IT am far from satisfied with Many coroner's investigations into these sudden and unex- pected deaths.' In another speech, a St. Cath- arines coroner asked legal pro- tection for family physicians so - they can release information on physically or mentally defective drivers to licensing authorities. Coroner Dr. R. B. Penton said this would help reduce the acci- dent toll. In a later address, Dr. Cot- nam told the coroners the hal- ucinatory drug LSD is potent enough to put a "whole city out of action for hours," if two pourids were dropped in the wa- ter supply. He urged the coroners to think of LSD when investigating motor accidents, homicides and suicides. "It also should be considered in bizarre deaths," he said.
