Auto Pact /Ban Moonlighting "OTTAWA (CP) -- Michael Starr (PC--Ontario) suggested in. the Commons Thursday a complete re - examination of the Canada-U.S. auto pact. Industry Minister Drury said there will be a meeting of rep- resentatives of government and the United Auto Workers on the matter and it would be prema- © ture to anticipate its results. Mr. Drury also confirmed for Mr. Starr that he has received representations from Oshawa city council concerning layoffs caused by the auto agreement. He said he has promised a reply as soon as possible, i Boat Show Opens © TORONTO (CP)--The Cana-| dian boat show opens today at the Canadian National Exhibi-| tion. More than 150 exhibitors from North America, France, Italy, Holland, Denmark, Norway, England and the Far East are participating. | Ludy LaMarsh, secretary of| state, opens the show officially tonight. Miss Boating 1967 is Sally Demary of Waterloo, Ont., a second - year political science student at the University of Tor- onto. Leukemia CHICAGO (AP)-- A chemical extracted from a bacteria found in the intestinal tract has elimi- nated a certain type of leuke- mia in mice and killed human leukemia in test-tube experi- ments, a team of medical re- searchers reported Thursday. The initial research with mice and later studies with human blood was done at the Univer- sity of Illinois Medical Centre and Hines Veterans Administra- tion Hospital. They said the chemical killed 100 per cent of the cancerous blood in eight of 15 samples taken from leukemia patients, more than 95 per cent in four samples and 40 per cent in the remaining three. They said if the chemical--an enzyme called L-asparaginase-- has the same effect when given directly to leukemia patients, it] ; may be helpful in the manage- 'ment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia, one of the common- est types. Tests will be made to de- 'termine whether the chemical has any dangerous side effects. - The enzyme, obtainable from ea pig serum or from bac- a normally present in the hu- man intestinal tract, apparently destroys cancer cells by starv- ing them to death. Investigation OTTAWA (CP)--Finance Min- Aster Sharp promised Thursday to investigate a complaint by W. 'a. Thomas (PC -- Middlesex 'West) that banks may be charg- ing to renew 1936 three-per-cent perpetual bonds. Mr. Sharp said in the Com- mons that neither the govern- ment nor the Bank of Canada has heard of such charges. Mr. Thomas asked Mr. Sharp ite find out whether a bank in Strathroy, Ont., is making such charges. ' HERE AND THERE SILVER TRAY An inscribed silver tray was presented to Mayor Ernest 'Marks by skaters Donald Jack- 'son and Hugh Smith, both for- merly of the city, at "Oshawa Night" at the Ice Follies Wed- nesday. Con. Frank McCallum, 'on behalf of Mayor Marks, ac- cepted the tray during inter- mission. Hundreds of Oshawa residents attended the "Oshawa Night" performance during which Mr. Jackson and Mr. Smith were featured. RED CROSS SOCIETY In a Times story Wednesday is was incorrectly stated that the immediate past president of the Oshawa branch of the Red Cross Society Fred Roberts gave the president's farewell ad- dress. In fact, J. A. Yanch, who was re-elected president of the branch, gave the address, in which he referred to the esta- blishment of a building com- mittee to investigate the possi- bility of larger offices for the Red Cross in the city. KIDNEY TRANSPLANTS Two Toronto men who re- eelved kidney transplants from Charles Lynch, 38, of 762 East- bourne Ave., Oshawa, after he had died in a road accident, were again reported in satis- factory condition at Toronto Western Hospital today. "They are a little depressed after fur- ther Mialysis treatment yester- day," a Spokesman said. "But meg pol pore quite well. It is early to predict outcome of the overation."

The Loblaw chain announced in Sudbury Wednesday the stamps were being withdrawn as a test. They would be re- stored if there is sufficient cus- tomer demand. Mr. Shelley said it is an _es- tablished pattern for chain stores to use stamps in one area but not in another. E. J. BENSON «+. Tax Appeal Tax Appeal OTTAWA (CP) Minister Benson said Thursday the income tax appeal board has not yet made a ruling on his department's assessment against industrialist John Doyle. He was replying in the Com- mons to Eric Winkler (PC-- Grey-Bruce) who said Doyle owes the federal treasury nearly $4,000,000 and his appeal against the assessment was heard last June. Doyle in 1965 skipped ball in the United States after being charged with violations of secur- ities legislation. New Home Site TORONTO (CP)--George Bu- kator (L--Niagara Falls) sug- gested Thursday that homes in the path of a planned diversion of the Welland Canal be moved to a new site rather than de- molished. Mr. Bukator said that in the midst of a housing shortage hundreds of homes are being bought "and closed up." Reminding the legislature that whole communities were moved to make way for the St. Lawrence Seaway, he suggested the affected homes in his rid- ing be moved to a model town- site and rented to elderly per- sons at reduced rates. {the attempt to launch the Lunar peared to be in the electrical -- Revenue |i VANCOUVER (CP) -- Steel- workers, machinests and man- agement have worked out:a con- tract that bans moonlighting, F. S. Dunphy, Steelworkers rep- resentative, reported Thursday. A clause in the contract, he said, is aimed at eliminating the practice of holding two full- time jobs simultaneously. The agreement was worked out by the United Steelworkers of America and the Machinists Union with Vancouver Iron and Engineering Works Ltd. clauses, Mr. Dunphy said. The clause outlaws a situa- tion "where an employee regu- larly makes a practice of work- ing for two or more employers during the regularly-scheduled work week." The agreement said "'the com- pany will terminate" the em- ployment of any employee found indulging in the banned prac- tice. Mr. Dunphy said agreement was reached without any man- agement opposition. He said companies and unions are concerned with safety and a man who works two full shifts is a safety hazard. "Their (company) attitude is that they don't want a half-man working for them,"' he said. The clause does not restrict employees from weekend part- time work, but is directed at the man who regularly works a ho day in addition to his first | job. Space Briefing | HOUSTON, Tex. (AP)--Space agency officials and top engi- neers of the U.S. moon pro- gram receive a private briefing today on the Apollo spaceship tragedy. Shortly before the scheduled briefing, a power supply prob- lem forced a 24-hour postpone- ment--until Saturday night--of Orbiter III into orbit about the moon from Cape Kennedy, Fla. The complex camera package is intended to help pick definite lunar landing sites for Ameri- can astronauts. The National Aeronautics and Space Adminis- tration reported the trouble ap- power system running between Contracts with five other steel| companies included similar! OTTAWA (CP)--'It is now my duty to sentence you to six months in the opportunity Oli That's how Australia treats its first offenders, a joint par- liamentary committee on peni- tentiaries was told Thursday. ®Wrance is advanced, classify- ing prisoners according to sex, age, record, offence and health. It has a special prison in its salubrious south for convicts with emphysema, a lung dis- ease. In Sweden there are 19,000 prisons. The rest are on proba- tion. The Swedish prisoners choose their jail, get a key to the cell, relax in sauna baths and are called clients. They also have to pay rent. In_ Australia, given way to 'opportunity clubs" where first offenders must spend their evenings in re- habilitative programs. "The thing that stood out was that every country is looking for an alternative to prisons." Mrs. John Nickels told the commit- prisons have convicts but only 5,500 are in tee. New Private OTTAWA (Special) -- A pri- vate member's bill which would make sweeping changes in the financial situation of the Bell Telephone Company is expected to come up for debate today in the House of Commons. The bill is sponsored by Rus- sell Honey, Liberal MP for Dur- ham, who told the Ottawa Bu- reau of The Times that he hopes the house will approve second reading and send the bill to committee for detailed study. The routine first reading was given last October. Mr. Honey's bill would make some profound changes in the capitalization of Canada's big- gest privately owned telephone system, including a change of name to "Bell Canada," in line with a previous move by Trans Canada Air Lines to become known as '"'Air Canada." But more significantly, it would authorize the increase in the capital stock from the pres- ent $1,000,000,000 to $1,750,000,- 000. Provision of funds needed to finance the Bell's current construction program will in- volve a stock issue this fall. Bill Debate To Change Bell Telephone Further required financing in 1967 and 1968 will likely involve the issuance of both bonds and shares, Mr. Honey explained. The bill would also authorize Bell to issue part of its capital stock in the form of preferred shares, something that has been prohibited to date. While the company has no present plans for issuing preferred shares, customer service requirements in the next few years will be such that no barrier to the at- traction of needed capital should be allowed to exist, Mr. Honey declares. Aussie Prison Treatment -- Heard, House Of Commons With Canada smack in the midst of a prison construction program, she said all evidence points to the fact that peniten- tiaries are a waste of money. She and her husband, who is Protestant chaplain at Kingston penitentiary, spent three years visiting 200 prisons around the world to gather material for a book. They found that Nigeria spent more in one year on the war against crime than it did on public health, and New York State devoted $665,000,000 to containing criminals. Italy's penal and welfare sys- tem was "long on theory but short on practice," she said. English prisons were anti- quated but the programs were advanced. This explain in part the great escapes of the last couple of years. Mexico had island prisons where families could join their incarcerated ones for the length of the sentence. It didn't seem to hurt the children, Mrs.. Nick- els said. NEED FAITH In Russia, "strangely enough," administrators had concluded that some sort of faith was needed for prisoners, It didn't have to be religious but they found that no one could become 'fully mature without something to believe in. All over the world, the trend was to smaller prisons or none at all. In France and Sweden, English Radio Clear - Cut 9 By TOM MITCHELL OTTAWA (CP) -- Clear-cut areas of responsibility in Brit- ish broadcasting have left it free of the kind of controversy that keeps bubbling up in Can- ada, the Commons broadcasting committee was told Thursday. A picture of a neat and un- cluttered broadcasting set-up in Britain was drawn for the com- mittee by Sir Hugh Greene, di- rector-general of the publicly owned British Broadcasting Corporation, and Sir Robert Fraser, head of the Independ- ent Television Authority. In contrast, the Canadian scene appeared to be a tangle of overlapping responsibilities and agencies. Sir Robert, director-general of the agency that rides herd on private British TV, put it this way: "As controversy-ridden as we are in many phases of televi- sion, we live in a state of bliss- ful peace as far as the organiza- tion of broadcasting is con- cerned." CAN BE FIRED Both men emphasized the clear responsibilities they hold. Sir Hugh takes responsibility for running the BBC and could be 'sacked at any time" if he doesn't do his job well, he told the MPs. Sir Robert said the govern- ment has to make "the big, basic decisions" about what will be general broadcasting policy. Once it had done that, then full responsibility for carrying this A number of other d ments to the company's act of incorporation are included in the bill and are expected to spark considerable debate, Ma- jor objection is expected from the New Democratic Party which, in the past, has not been too friendly to Bell on _ the ground that it should become a publicly owned corporation. Bell has more than_ 230,000 shareholders, most of them Canadian, and its stock is wide- ly held by pension and invest- ment funds as well as individ- Car Inspector Staff Reduced OTTAWA (CP)--Larry Sheffe, international representative of the United Auto Workers, said Thursday that about 10 years ago the auto industry reduced its car inspection staff by half. Responsibility for car inspec- tion was turned over to the pro- ual Canadi who have sought security for their savings. No Legislation On Municipals TORONTO (CP) -- Municipal Affairs Minister Wilfrid Spooner said Thursday he doubts there will be legislation at the cur- rent session of the legislature implementing a report on mu- nicipal government in Peel and Halton counties. duction staff whose chief job is the ground and the payload. PRINCESS MARGARET - « + In Hospital In Hospital LONDON (AP) Princess Margaret is in a hospital for a checkup and is expected to re- main for a few days, it was an- nounced Thursday night. The 36-year-old sister of the Queen entered King Edward VII Hospital Wednesday night. Her husband, Lord Snowdon, is abroad for a month and was told of the princess' plans for a checkup before he left. Sources at Buckingham Pal- ace said the princess' condition was not serious, and she has not cancelled any public en- gagements. She plans to attend the charity preview of a mus- ical in London next Tuesday evening. Stanley Randall, minister of economics and development, told Mr. Bukator the project is entirely in the hands of the fed- eral government. Mr. Bukator, speaking in the throne speech debate, also criti- cized the Workmen's Compensa- tion Act as "obsolete" and sug- gested the workmen's compen- sation board set up regional of- fices to hear complaints from injured workers. He also suggested the Ni- agara Parks Commission shows purchases. et Sutton. This Pleze is only brisk business our present clients require additional spece thie year.

The thousands of recalls of cars to correct faults and the consequent public or about car safety had caused the cur- rent decline in sales. Behind the recalls were two reasons -- lack of proper in- spection system in auto plants, and the rate at which cars moved along assembly lines making it impossible for work- ers to do a proper assembly job.

Education was being stressed as a way to economic feedom. Mrs. Nickels said an interna- tional congress at Stockholm in 1965 came to the conclusion that only about one per cent of prisoners. are really dangerous and they belong in mental hos- pitals. A scientific and humane ap- proach, stressing dignity, was advocated for the rest. PRAISES SYSTEM Her testimohy came after Dr. George D. Scott, the psychia- trist at Kingston penitentiary, had testified that Canada's penal system is among the world's best. Senator Muriel Fergusson (L --New Brunswick) asked Mrs. Nickels what she thought of this. "That is a very difficult ques- tion to answer while I'm still in Canada,"' was the reply. She added that a good many important penal positions in Canada seem to be filled politi- cally. She also said prisons. guards seem to be chosen at random despite the fact that an intelli- gent guard can exercise a ma- jor influence on a prisoner. out for the BBC and ITA rested squarely on the directors, ap- pointed by the government, of the two bodies. The two officials were invited to appear before the commit- tee to testify on British experi- ence in the broadcasting field. Sir Robert said interposing any kind of regulatory body-- such as the Board of Broadcast Governors in Canada--in. be- tween the government minister responsible for broadcasting and the directors responsible for the public and private sect- ors of broadcasting raises "'the whole question of who is re- sponsible for what. Then, I think, wrangles break out." Both men agreed with com- mittee members that the situa- tion is simpler in Britain. The BBC operates both radio and television service, without any commercials. There {is no privately owned radio. ITA is WEATHER REPORT i TORONTO (CP) -- Forecast issued at 5.30 a:m.
