It also announced an increase| to 8% from 7% per cent in the maximum interest rate for mortgages under the National Housing Act. Trade Minister Winters told the Commons the subsidies will be paid for wheat sold by the Canadian wheat board below minimum price levels already agreed to at Geneva but which br not operative until July 1, The government would make up the difference between the agreed schedule of minimum prices related to a price of $1.95 a bushel for No. 1 Northern in store at the Lake- head. DATE FROM AUG. 1 | The subsidies would be paid! on sales between last Aug. 1 and the effective date of the agreement replacing the old five-year world wheat pact that expired earlier this year. Mr. Winters, presenting his department's spending esti- mates for the 1967-68 fiscal year, said the wheat situation has strengthened and he does not expect the payments will make a heavy demand on the treasury. The wheat board price Wednesday was $1.9454. Labor Minister Nicholson, responsible for housing, announced the increase in the NHA rate just as the Commons rose for the day. Effective Oct. 1, the maxi- mum interest rate on home- ownership and rental loans will be set at 8% per cent and remain there until the next quarterly adjustment Jan. 1. One aim of the increase, the minister said, is to attract --" private funds into hous- ing. AIM AT MOST NEED Another is to allow the gov- ernment '"'to concentrate its future lending in the important social areas of greatest need-- public housing, housing for eld- erly people, housing for stu- dents and urban renewal.'"' The NHA rate in these areas remains unchanged. Both ministers were criticized by opposition MPs after their announcements. Mr. Winters was scored for earlier statements on wheat by Eldon Woolliams (PC--Bow River). He said the minister had lulled farmers into a false) MPs tour th sense of security last spring by suggesting that wheat prices would rise 21 cents. Instead they had fallen 22 cents. Mr. Woolliams said the subsi- dies would help but some mar- kets had been lost and "there may be difficulty now in the new agreement into effect." ACCUSES U.8 PARLIAMENT AT-A-GLANCE | WEDNESDAY, Sept. 27, 1967 Labor Minister Nicholson announced the National Hous- ing Act interest rate will be 8% per cent, up from the present 74% per cent, from Oct. 1 to the end of the year.

The announcement brought groans from opposition benches. Trade Minister Winters announced in the Commons the government will guaran- tee a price of $1.9544 for wheat until a new internation- al price agreement comes | into effect next summer. _/He said the wheat market is strengthening and he did not expect the guarantee would make a heavy demand on the federal treasury. Eldon Angams (PC) Row River) said the United States had taken markets from Can- ada by unloading wheat at bargain prices. wheat had been lost and it might be difficult to bring a new international agreement into effect. ; Creditiste Leader Caouette tried to set aside the wheat debate and hold an emergen- cy debate on national unity, a Markets for Canadian the spirit of the unsigned Gene- va agr by selling at low prices. Mr. Winters said he has been "very concerned about the downward trend of wheat prices in recent months." Canada had not initiated the downward trend "but rather was forced to lower prices to meet competition from other exporters." MAKING EVERY EFFORT Every effort was being made to sell maximum quantities of wheat at the best possible prices but supply and demand market.

Law Students Test Kingston Authority KINGSTON (CP) -- For the second time this year a Queen's University law student has posed a legal problem for King- ston's parking authority. Hubert Winston Hogle, a third-year law student from Odessa, Ont., appearing on a parking offence before Magis- trate P. E. D. Baker, argued Wednesday that the city bylaw governing parking creates mul- tiple charges against an accused person. The bylaw states that a moto- rist has committed an offence when he "parks, causes to be parked, or permits to be parked" a vehicle at a meter showing a violation. The bylaw creates three sep- arate offences, Mr. Hogle said. He also argued that the owner rather than the operator of an allegedly illegally parked car should be charged. Magistrate Baker remanded the case to Oct. 18 and ordered both Mr. Hogle and City Solici- tor Douglas Hardtman to pre- pare written arguments. Earlier this year, Magistrate Baker shook 'up parking author- ities across Ontario when he threw out a parking ticket' against law student Matthew Hudson of London, Ont., who argued the instructions on park- ing meters describing coins to be used is illegal. However, the magistrate's ruling was later reversed by the Ontario Court of Appeal.
