Donald Meadows and two ether youths were walking abreast on King Street East at midnight. When a police cruiser pulled up behind them, they jumped for the curb, soliciting a ride. The officer warned them they were creating a hazard and advised them to stay well off the travelled portion of the road, As soon as the officer drove eff, one of the youths stepped out again and flagged the next car.

Robert Vallieres, a witness for the defence, said a car driv- en by John Baker Sr., had come out of Scugog Street South and Piggott had no where else to go except pass on the right.

Former Finance Minister Bases Third Try On Unity By RONALD LEBEL OTTAWA (CP)--Donald Flem- ing is wooing support from the Social Credit and Union Nation- ale parties in his third bid for the Conservative leadership. The 62-year-old former finance minister told a news conference Wednesday he wants to broaden his party's base and "halt the fragmentation' of conservative forces. "T'm: against the all-powerful state," he said as he formally entered the leadership race, joining six other declared candi- dates. Opposition Leader Diefen- baker's intentions remain ob- scure, Mr. Fleming, tanned and slim- mer after four years' absence from the political wars, said he was accepting a draft from about two-thirds of the 95 Con- servative MPs to run as a "party unity" candidate. The Toronto corporation law- yer made a@ strong appeal for provincial support, saving the Pearson governmen' i. given scant attention to the financial plight of the provinces' and mu- nicipalities. He favored new tax-sharing; arrangements that would permit the provinces to "'exist in dig- nity without being mendicants" and permit the municipalities to ease the "crushing" tax burden on homeowners. Political eyebrows shot up when he disclosed that he has discussed his leadership plans with Social Credit Premier Man- ning of Alberta and Union Na- tionale Premier Johnson of Que- bec, both of whon: call them- selves small-e conservatives but have no ties with the Conserva- tive party. Mr. Fleming said he also met Conservative Premier Robarts of Ontario and Stanfield of Nova Scotia recently and hopes to see Premier Roblin of Manitoba to- Not only has the tree stayed up, but there are stil unopened presents under it.

To help, Consumers withdrew made. Cutbacks to most Ontario and Quebec distributors would total 18 per cent of contract demand in summer and 10 in winter for the year starting Nov. 1. A letter to distributors made public at a national energy board hearing Wednesday said Trans-Canada may fall 37 bil- lion cubic feet short of meeting eastern contract obligations in that period. The letter, dated June 6, said imposition of the- pro-rate cut- backs depend on several factors. Rationing could be averted through construction of proposed new west-to-east lines. either through the U.S. south of the Great Lakes or through North- ern Ontario. ASK U.S. HELP Other arrangements might be made with U.S. suppliers to make up some deficiencies. V. L. Horte, a Trans-Canada vice- president, said Tennessee Gas Transmission has been asked for 20 billion cubic feet, but can give no assurance it will be its opposition to the Trans-Can- ada proposal to twin its North- ern Ontario line if the U.S. line fails to go through. N. J. MeNeil, Trans-Canada's | senior vice-president, said he was still hoping the Federal} Power Commission in the U.S.| would shortly approve the U.S. line, showing a way out of the situation. U.S. ROUTE FAVORED All Trans-Canada customers favor the U.S. line, but the ma- jor ones were opposed to the Northern. Ontario twinning, at least until Consumers Gas broke ranks Wednesday.

Mr. MeNeil estimated the cost of the North shore route at $420,- 000,000, about $90,000,000 more than the straight twinning throughout. The 430-mile Winni- peg-Nipigon section could be built this year and the north shore section in 1968. Although it would provide no additional gas to eastern Cah- ada until the fall of 1968, it would open up new markets in Sault Ste. Marie and elsewhere in Northern Ontario.
