Terence Kelly, immediate past president of the Ontario County Bar Association, mod- erated the panel discussion by B. Clive Bynoe, Toronto de- fence lawyer; Bruce Affleck, Ontario County crown attorney; Graham Parker, professor of law at Osgoode Hall; and Joseph Pomerant, also a To- ronto lawyer. About 80 Oshawa anq Toronto lawyers attended. Wage Parity Major Topic For UAW At Wage parity for auto workers is one of the major issues facing a 25-mem- ber UAW delegation as it left Oshawa today for a three-day economic conference in Detroit. ; The international conference was called to formulate Cana- dian and American collective bargaining demands. Issues expected to be dis- cussed include wage parity, in- creased pension and earlier retirement, shorter work week, fully paid auto insurance and increased fringe benefits. Clifford Pilkey, president of the Oshawa and District Labor Council and an executive of ag 222 UAW-CIA, said to- jay: "We are going to be inter- Canadian, Conference ested in two things. Wage par- ity which we think is lon; overdue and also full employ- ment as it applies to the Cana- dian-American auto agree- ment." Also included in the delega- tion are Albert Taylor, presi- dent of Local 222, William Harding, chairman of the Gen- eral Motors bargaining, com- mittee and UAW secretary- treasurer Ald. Russel McNeil. The delegation will attend the international conference in De- troit from April 20 to 22 and will convene in Windsor on April 23 to discuss union mat- ters of strictly a Canadian interest. Results of the meetings will be discussed by unit leaders at the next unit meetings. Among numerous facets of law ethics touched on, Mr. Kelly put forward questions of the shortcomings of crown at- torneys and defence. lawyers in Canada. On the question of the crown, Mr. Pomerant said there were "too many of them". This, he said, gave a place like Toronto and surrounding area a flavor of inconsistency which made it difficult for defence council to) form any rule of thumb. Speaking generally of crown attorneys in Canada, Professor Parker said, "I don't think there is anything wrong with them', He said there was little in the way of political bias, and said they were not concerned with fact gathering and there- fore were not prone to forming preconceived opinions as is the GM RECALLING 125 LAID-OFF During April, General Motors of Canada will recall about 125 employees, who were previous- ly laid off, a company spokes- man. said today. To date about 100 of the esti- mated, 125 employees to be re- called! are already working. The majority of the recall- ed workers will be placed on the truck production assembly. This results in an increase of mua production in this line, the spokesman said. The balance of the employ- ees to be recalled will be re- quired for positions in the com- ponent manufacturing division. ® oor pm MENMMEMMMTM EA ORKERS Pot additional 125 employees réturning to work will bring the total number of hourly-rated employees at General Motors to an estimated 11,900. oo oman » oak The Ontario-Durham College of Applied Arts and Technology is slowly putting together a SOME OFFICIALS LEFT STANDING Everyone at city council stands for the Lord's Prayer before the legislative body gets down to work.

Following the example set by Ryerson Polytechnical Institute in Toronto, Dr. Willey says he is attempting to lure qualified people from industry to serve on the faculty of the new com- munity college. "For the most part we have been trying to secure people from industry and so far we are succeeding," he said, add- ing that he hopes to have his staff assembled by Aug. 1 in order to prepare the courses and have them ready for the first day of school in Septem- ber Injured Infant Still "Critical" TORONTO (Staff) Darlene Campbell, months old, 52 Jackman Rd. condition'. today at the Hospi- tal for Sick Children, suffering case in some other countries.

Britten, a first- term trustee of the Oshawa board of. education, said at Mon- day night's board meeting that labor, --"the city's largest force' --is excluded from the school board --especially with- out an honorarium. "The board is restricted to professional men because fac- tory night workers can't afford to lose. money by running for election," said the trustee. Mr. Britten said only about three labor' people are repre- sented on the board of educa- tion and none of these are men who are paid by the hour. Trustees approved pay board members by a recorded vote Monday night with one trustee absent and an- other refraining from voting. Mr. Britten said some mem- bers of the board derive business and political benefits through City Applies To Drop Vote The city will make an applica- tion to the Ontario Municipal Board for an order dispensing of an electors' vote'on the con- struction of an addition to the civic administration building -- including a civic square and underground parking. At its meeting, this week, council adopted a motion to that effect -- with Cont. Margaret Shaw objecting: 'I'm not for underground parking." City Turns Down Settlement Appeal City council has turned dqwn an appeal by a city lawyer seeking an expropriation settle- ment of $7,200 for his client. Z. T. Salmers, lawyer for Mrs. Luella McMullen, sought the appeal Monday. The OMB ruled earlier this year that $5,800 be paid the woman for the house and lot the city expropriated from her at the corner of Simcoe and Albert Streets. It was used for Trustee Says Lack Of Pay or Off Board public relations on the board while others gnly received '"'per- sonal satisfaction." Chairman Stanley E. Lovell, who opposed the honorarium, said if he needed dollars to |'increase his devotion" to the board of education, he would review his reasons for seeking election. However, Mr. Lovell said trustees who lose work pay while serving on the board, are justified in wanting the hono- rarium "but not if money will improve his duty." Details of the honorarium will be submitted to the board in about two weeks.

More than 300 residents' of the southern section of the township attended the meet- ing in the West Rouge School auditorium. John Kruger, presi- dent of the Bay Ridges Rate- payers' Association, presided. The meeting was held to pro- test the 16.4 mill- increase in the township tax rate this year. Ratepayers approved a mo- tion to hold a meeting with the three candidates in the provin- cial election in the riding to ascertain the stand of their parties and themselves on the debenture proposal. The suggestion that payment on debentures be withheld was advanced by Mr. Kruger who read a lengthy statement. "The township will not go. into bankruptcy as long as I am a member of council,' said Coun. John Williams." Deben- tures are like stock in a munic- ipality.

Deputy Reeve Mrs. Jean Me- Pherson said following the meetiing she would have no part in the withholding of de benture payments. "In Pickering we have waited more than two years for the recommendations of the Gold- enberg Report, as they affect fringe municipalities, to be adopted. Nothing has happen- ed. This report stated that fi- nancial relief should be given to areas such as Pickering but the province has seen fit to en- act only that part of the report on taxation as it applied to Metro," Mr. Kruger said. "Tf an analysis of the Smith Report on taxation indicates' no relief for areas such as ours, a most unlikely prospect, or if the policy of the provincial gov- ernment is contained in the re- cent statement by Prime Min- ister Robarts that the Smith Re- port will take three more years to enact, it is my view that as municipal taxpayers we must respond with more than words.
