«QUEBEC (CP)—Justice Min.- | {fater Claude Wagner of Quebec said Friday his department is prenared to co-operate” with, mu- nicipal | and provinejal police forces toward setting up a Ca- nadian Interpol. .

“We can create an Interpol without the participation of the RCMP but it would be better if the RCMP could take part, a he said.

In Montreal, an’ unnamed delegate week’s federalprovincial | con- ‘ference on crime as saying provincial and municipal police forces across Canada are “or- ganizing' to form a Canadian | Interpol, -

On a statement Thursday by three federal cabinet ministers taking him to task for state- ments he made about the con- ference, Mr. .Wagner said he sticks by the statements.

He added:

“Isn't it odd that the federal reaction is limited to defending the RCMP? The “federal min- \sters said nothing of the crit- {tism—just as harsh that I levelled against the politicians.”

The justice minister said Que-

Mr. Wagner, in his Wednes- day statement about the Ottawa conference, said he was disap- pointed at the outcome.

He accused the federal partict- pants of being “spineless and more ,interested in plain petty politics and being careful’ not to tread on toes’ than in adminis- tering justice and carrying on the struggzle against crime.
