As the secretary said yesterday at his press conference, there are various theoretically possible methods but reunifcation of Ger- many by free elections is the natural method and the formula agreed to at the summit con- ference in 1955."

Liberal Leader Declares

By ALAN DONNELLY Canadian Press Staff Writer OTTAWA (‘(CP)—The Commons

opposition parties, professing themselves full of ginger and fight, are ready to move to the attack on the Progressive Con- servative government in the new parliamentary session.

Opposition Leader Pearson said Wednesday there is ‘‘vigor and enthusiasm’’ in the 49-member Liberal group — “‘ntuch livelier than they were a year ago.”

Both Mr. Pearson and Hazen Argue, House leader of the eight- man CCF group, indicated their main points of attack will be gov- ernment handling of the ems of inflation, recession and unem- ployment.

Mr. Pearson has called govern- ment policies “uncertain and in ept’’ and Mr. Argue says the gov- ernment has ‘“‘bungled” the coun- try into financial crisis.

GOVERNMENT REPLIES

The government has already made its reply to this, stating

\|jthe economy is recovering and

that prospects are brilliant. The administration is supported by a whopping 208 - member majority in the 265-seat Commons.

Infighting starts Monday with speeches by party leaders’ follow- ing two days of session-opening formalities starting today at 2:30 pm. EST when Governor-Gen- eral Massey comes to Parliament the speech from the throne. ,

The session, likely to last until early summer, could be the live- liest- since the Progressive Con- servatives came to power on a minority mandate in te-election June 10, 1957.

The abbreviated session follow- ing that election was featured by a marked opposition unwilling- ness to force the government into another election. And when Par-

An innovation has been pre- pared for the Commons, with simultaneous interpretation of both English and French speeches into the. other official language. Eight interpreters will work in shifts on the tough job of interpreting the sometimes hectic cross-fire of words in the bilingual chamber. Tiny ear- phones for members have been tied in with the sound amplifica- tion sy stem installed several years ago.

ECONOMIC MEASURES

Today's wpeect from the throne an outline of government legisla- tive plans for the session, will contain some general comments about the economic situation.

It may also announce some specific economie measures which could include a $360,000 - 000 increase in the fund avail able to boost housing construc; tion. A similat increase last year raised housing activity to record levels, but the fund held by Cent- ral Mortgage and — Cor- poration is expected to pleted this spring. :

The government's main econe- mie moves won't be made until Finance Minister Fieming brings down his budget . about three months.

Criticism will be aimed at last December’s 17-per-cent railway freight rate increase, especially by Maritimes and western MPs whose areas claim such across- the-board rate increases are dis- criminatory. Last month Works Minister Green, then acting prime minister, said a “propo sal’’ would be put before Parlia- ment to alleviate freight rate dis- cramination. |
