Mr. Hellyer and the govern- ment have repeatedly refused, arguing that the normal proce- dure is to vote on second read- ing--approval in principle--be- fore sending a bill to commit- The Conservatives have been using a motion to provide in- terim spending authority to the government as the forum for pressuring the government on the issue. Last week it appeared the government might be unable to. meet its payroll costs and might even have to call a general election, But Prime Minister Pearson announced Thursday that the government had discov- ered some money, already ap- proved by Parliament, that it could use to meet its bills. OPED FOR END The government hoped this would de » fuse the Conserva- tives and bring a quick end to the debate. There was no indi- cation during the Commons de- bate Monday that their hopes 'ould be realized. While continuing to hammer Mr. Hellyer over unification, the Conservatives opened an attack on Revenue Minister Benson, questioning the legality of the computer's discovery of money last week.
