Prime Minister Nehru sent a shocked apology to Queen Eliza- beth for a ”wholly intemperate" article in the magazine Economi Review, published by the All-lndla Congress. which supports him.

The magazine had made acid comment on a speech which it attributed to the Queen during her recent visit to Portugal. Ac- tually the passages quoted were spoken by Portuguese President Lopes. who spoke of the "civiliz- ing" work of Britain and Portugal in past times. Nehru explained the magazines regular editor was away when the article appeared and "i deeply re- gret the publication of this note which is wholly intemperate and in bad taste." FELLOW CANUCKS Fisheries Minister James Sin- clair said some fishermen in New- foundland and Nova Scotia do not regard each other as fellow Cana- dians. Custuni dies hard. the minister said. although Newfoundland has been a member of Confederation for eight years. He was commenting on an in- cident earlier when employees of a federally-subsidized bait depot in Newfoundland refused to sell bait to the Nova Scctlan fishing v e s s e I. apparently considering them foreigners. DOCTORS' TEAMWORK General practitioners and spe- cialists were urged by Health Minister Martin to work together as a team. not in competition. Martin said "it is within the specialties that some of the great- est advances in medical science have been made and unless there is greater consultation and co-op- eration between specialists and general practitioners, the benefits of these advances will not be widely distributed. . . ." He was addressing the first na- tional sclentific convention of the College of General Practice of Canada.
