SAGE 7 Saeee new se ..have an obligation to prove em- TODAY'S ARCHER Six persons were asked about drivers in Oshawa, dur- ing a Times' man-on-the- street survey. They said: Paul Lachapelle, RR 6, Bow- manville: 'On the average, daytime drivers who are mostly women, have no sense of lane changing. They are not aware of what is going on. Men, though, are more offensive splashers. On the whole, Oshawa is a pretty good place for driving." Gary Hanewick, RR 3, Bowman- ville: "I've been driving in Oshawa for four years and I ry {otter eet YORK rreereneee rra THOMAS never had any trouble with drivers, They're usually with- in the speed limit except for the odd young fellow who drives too fast. One thing though, women drive too far out from the curb when they want to turn left. They prac- tically go all the way through the next lane just to turn. Pedestrians don't signal often enough." Raymond York, 410 Dovedale Dr., Whitby: "I'm not too proud of some of them. People park anywhere they want to and there's too much cutting corners around What About HENEWICK here. Nobody reads signs and nobody cares about the law. Motorcycles are of no use at all." Mike St. Thomas, 1475 Park Rd. S.: "Bad driving depends on the _ street. Drivers can really tear it up on one way streets. Splashing is a real nuisance. Women are sometimes more careless than men. And we should have more_ crosswalks.' Garry Archer, 500 Stone St.: "Crosswalks are a problem when people don't signal right. About 90 per cent of Angry Tory MP Storms Across Floor Of House By DAVID DAVIDSON OTTAWA (CP) --An angry Conservative MP stormed across the floor of the Commons Wednesday for a finger-jabbing session with Transport Minister Pickersgjll after the House chairman ruled in order a con- troversial amendment to the government's transport bill. "A shameful ruling, a_ parti- san ruling!"' shouted Jack Hor- ner after Herman M. Batten (L--Humber-St. George's) ac- cepted an amendment the Con- lservatives contend would re- Unions Have Obligation the' government lost. There were angry rumblings from Opposition benches as Mr. Batten read his decision from a prepared statement. It was im- mediately appealed by Gordon Churchill (PC--Winnipeg South Centre). Moments later Mr. Horner, an Alberta farmer, was in front of the treasury benches remon- strating withthe transport min- ister, After the exchange--Mr. Pick- To Prove Employer Wrong): sisssatsate" TORONTO (CP) Unions ployers swear false information in obtaining picket-limiting in- junctions, Ivan C. Rand, who is investigating Ontario labor law, said Wednesday. Mr. Rand, a former justice of the Supreme Court of Canada, said judges would be more cau- tious about granting injunctions in labor disputes if unions could prove even one had been issued improperly. "Take a case and prove your point," Mr. Rand told Norman Allison, representative of the U.S. Contact Fruitless NEW YORK (AP) -- The Times says the United States has quietly made several infor- mal but direct contacts with political representatives of the Viet Cong. A Washington dispatch by Hedrick Smith says the disclo- sure was made by diplomatic sources Wednesday. "So far, it is said, they have not proved fruitful,' the report adds. The newspaper says the sources reported that a channel of contact between American diplomats and officials of the South Vietnamese Liberation Front, political arm of the Viet Cong, had been used intermit- tently for several months. The United Arab Republic, where the Liberation Front maintains one of its largest and most important political offices outside the Communist world, is reported to be one site of the repeated contacts, the report Says. OTHERS POSSIBLE | The sources indicated that) there might have been contacts in other capitals as well, the newspaper says. ° American officials who ack- nowledged privately that the discussions have occurred, the story continues, explain that Washington has not publicized them to avoid embarrassing the Saigon regime. The sources report that the discussions have not produced any tangible progress on any significant issue in the Vietna- mese conflict, the times says, adding that they are believed to have been concerned in part, at least, with prisoner questions. The Times also says it has been reported that United States officials conferred with North Vietnamese representa- tives in Burma, among other Oil, Chemical and Atomic Workers' International Union. Mr. Allison said that by the time such a case was dealt with in the courts, the strike would be settled or lost and the out- come would have no signifi- cance. An ex parte injunction can be granted on the basis of infor- mation sworn without the sec- ond party being present. A brief submitted to the royal commission by the Oil, Chem- ical and Atomic Workers Union said damage done by using in- junctions supersedes any dam- age that may have occurred as a result of a demonstration. DOESN'T AGREE Mr. Allison said under ques- tioning that he did not agree with violence on picket lines. However, he said that when pickets are charged with vio- lence, "we insist on proceed- ings being withdrawn before settling a strike." He did not agree with a sug- gestion by Mr. Rand that com- pulsory arbitration could be used in cases where unions had no effective bargaining power. PARLIAMENT AT -A-GLANCE By THE CANADIAN PRESS WEDNESDAY, Jan. 25, 1967 Conservative members in the Commons reacted angrily to a chairman's ruling permit- ting a government amend- ment to the transport bill al- lowing a study of statutory freight rates. They said the amendment duplicated a section deleted by a vote last week and ap- pealed the ruling to Speaker Lamoureux, who delayed de- cision. Prime Minister Pearson announced a 23-item legisla- tive program that he hopes to tennial summer recess of Par- liament. Solicitor - General Pennell e announced the commutation to life imprisonment of death have passed before a long cen- half of their members absent, lost by a count of 59 to 58. not only eliminated the review section but might also have de- stroyed the definition of grain the Prairie MP started back to his desk but turned at the cen- tre of the chamber, pointed at Mr. Batten, and shouted at the minister: "When you own a man you can do what you like with him, eh?" CRITICIZES BILL Mr. Horner, member for Acadia, has been one of the most vociferous critics of the transport bill during the 14 days the House has sat in commit- tee for clause-by-clause study of SWYNER verse.a vote last week which} Oshawa Drivers LACHAPELLE Oshawa drivers are reckless. Motorcycles are okay if they are not all lined up in the way. There is a lot of merit in the driver education course. It helps to make a person more conscientious of pedestrians." Mrs. Marie Swynar, 455 Miller Ave.: "I have never had any trouble with Oshawa drivers and I've been living here a long time. They always stop at cross- walks and I never was splash- | ed. The only thing is that motorcycles are too noisy." Struggle OTTAWA (CP)--Dalton Camp was the target of a critical blast | Wednesday as factions in the | Conservative party continued to jockey for field position on the ; leadership issue. Robert C. Coates, MP for Cumberland, said Mr, Camp is 4\"stalling on the leadership | question and making public pro- jnouncements as if the party were his servant available to do his bidding." The Nova Scotia MP called a reporter to his office to issue the blast. | Amendment He served 'notice Monday of an amendment that would allow the railways to request a cost study of any statutory or fixed jrate after the bill had been \law for two years. The Conservatives accused Mr. Pickersgill of trying to re-|ment jstore the deleted clause, getting | pute. in by the back door what he , couldn't get in by the front. | French Base Taken Ove OTTAWA (CP)--The govern- ment will announce shortly that the RCAF will take over the base at Lahr, West Germany,! as an air transport terminal, jauthorities say. | The base now is occupied by |the French air force. The RCAF will need a new terminal this summer when it abandons Mar- ville, France, under a French policy requiring all NATO troops to quit France. Officials say acquisition of a new base is vital to the con-| tinued operations of both the!

The two CF-104 reconnais- sance squadrons at Marville will be moved to the RCAF's Zweibruecken and Baden-Soel- lingen bases in Germany. The ber of CF-104 nuclear strike the 94-clause e. Mr. Batten was obviously stung by the accusation but did not reply. As Deputy Speaker and chairman of the House when it sits as a committee of the whole, he is restricted by tradition from partisan re- marks. Speaker Lucien Lamoureux, summoned from his chambers, agreed to a Conservative re- quest that debate on the appeal be delayed until members could get copies of Mr. Batten's rul- ing for further study. The debate is to take place today and is expected to be heated. There can be no further ap- peal from Mr. Lamoureux' rul- ing. The controversy on the gov- ernment amendment goes back to Jan. 18 when the Conserva- tives moved to delete a section from the bill requiring a cost study within three years of the statutory Crowsnest Pass freight rates on export grain. They contended the Crowsnest rates, established on levels set in 1897, are sacred to the West and should not be changed. Mr. | Pickersgill said there was no in- tention of interfering with the| rates and that the review would | only determine whether the rail- | ways are making or losing) money under them. | LOST VOTE | But the Conservative amend- ment was put to a vote and the Liberals, caught with more. than Mr. Pickersgill said the defeat sentences imposed in New Westminister, B.C., on Fred- | erick Myron Turner and Mich- ael Gregory Kuzyk. The Supreme Court opened final hearings in the Stephen Truscott case and defence counsel contended his murder conviction was based partly on shaky testimony by young- sters.

"The U.S. is very reasonable and quite willing to step back into line." Restrictions against U.S. in- vestment in Canada would lead to unemployment and force tal- ented young people out of the country to seek jobs.
