Senator H a r o l d Connolly warned the two old-line parties

Also in the bottle was a re‘ print of the brewery's 1759 label and instructions on how the

bottle could be made into a lamp base. "I have already written to

PM BADLY ADVISED

“He has been badly advised and badly let down because this bill is almost innocuous. The people of the Atlantic provinces expected a robust approac to their industrial problems."

It was obvious that a part- timc board with a part-time chairman could not hope to accomplish the task with which it would be saddled.

Senator Connolly said a host

lice Cream Query Seen Important

OTTAWA (CPi — Robert ;Beaule tSC—Qucbec East) said E Thursday a question in the Com- lmons about ice cream is just l8! important as another about ’running shoes.

Mr. Beaule was objecting in the Commons to a decision of Speaker Marcel Lambert who had declared that a question by Bernard Dumont ( elle- chasse) was out of order.

Mr. Dumont had asked lwhether “the 30 tons of ice cream imported from England. and which arrived in Montreal harbor last week. are going to help the government remove its subsidies on dairy products."

Mr. Beaule interjected that the question was as important as another earlier by Opposition Leader Pearson.

Mr. Pearson had asked, with tongue-in-cheek, whether Prime Minister Diefenbaker s b o u l d have received running shoes, in- stead of snow shoes and moc- casins. at a presentation Wed- nesday.
