The agenda of the four-day thinkers conference of Quebec Liberal MPs does-not mention the constitution. The theme of the conference which began Wednesday is "real issues" such as unemployment and housing. But constitutional questions have been raised by the three major speakers of the meeting Lesage, leader of the Quebec Liberal party, has lent addition- al emphasis to the constitution- al issues.

(AP) -- H. Rap Brown, U.S. Black Power leader, was transferred from Richmond city jail to the Vir- ginia prison farm in_ rural Powhatan County, 20 miles away, early Friday night at the request of worried city officials. The transfer was aimed at averting further incidents out- side the city lockup, where pickets marched and groups of Negroes taunted police and hurled rocks Thursday night and early Friday morning. A spokesman for the Virginia department of welfare and institutions said Brown was removed from the Richmond jail because "'city officials expressed concern about his presence in the Richmond met- ropolitan area." The picketing at the city jail Thursday night and early Fri- day, by about 40 supporters of Brown, was peaceful. But in the early - morning hours, police said there was sporadic rock- throwing by groups of Negroes, who were ranged on the hill adjacent to the jail's parking tote in taking his life Thursday night. Reuters news agency said Amer tried to kill himself twice before--once during the Middle East war and once in August.

The 31-year-old liner that has won the hearts of thousands sounded deep-throated blasts in reply to sirens from ships in the busy port. Her. sides were festooned with colored strea- mers. Passengers lined the ship's rails and waved to crowds ashore as five tugs pulled her from the dock. A flotilla of yachts, speed boats and ferries followed her out to sea and two aircraft swooped low overhead. Before she sailed Captain John Treasure Jones said he hopes the old ship will "go out in a blaze of glory and high spirits." \ The 31-year-old liner was to leave this morning from Southampton, England, on her 500th and last voyage to New York, She is carrying 1,300 pas- sengers -- about two-thirds capacity -- 744 bottles of cham- pagne and 450 cross-channel trippers to Cherbourg, France, the largest number ever. There are no big names on the westbound run, but the final crossing home from New York Sept. 22 will be packed to the bulkheads with American tycoons, actors and assorted celebrities including harmonica player Larry Adler who sailed on the Queen Mary's maiden voyage in 1936, c NO NOSTALGIA HERE Capt. (Treasure) Jones, 62- year-old Welshman who has captained the Queen Mary for Only 18 months, told reporters he was not nostalgic about the last voyage. He took the Maure- tania to her graveyard in 1965 and he was getting a bit used to farewell voyages. But he added the Mary was going to a "very nice home" at Long' Beach, Calif., where she will become a combined con- vention centre and maritime museum. The captain said Americans were "every bit as fond of the Queen Mary as the British--in fact more Americans than Brit- Ons have travelled on her'. "This is the finest ship that ever sailed on the ocean and they'll never build her like again, But the trade doesn't go for it. This was the one and only luxury vessel when sea was the only way to travel." The ship has had the run of her life, he said, but there had been lack of support, especially among the first-class travellers Mary Bid Fond Farewell and she had been losing too much mgney for her owners to g0 9) ESCORT TO CHANNEL Three bands have volunteered to play the Mary out today on her last trip down Southampton water and a pleasure steamer will escort her into the channel. Friday night was the first time the Queen Mary had pas- sengers aboard before sailings and there were grumbles aplenty when customs officials would not allow drinks to be served after 10:30 p.m. -- even in cabins to passengers want- ing to give the old ship a proper send-off.
