OTTAWA (CP) — Two men pleaded guilty “uesday to a re- duced charge of manslaughter in connection with a fire that claimed the lives of seven per- sons here Sept. 13.

The trial of Merrill Plouffe, 27, came to an abrupt end when Mr. Justice Charles D. Stewart ac- cepted a guilty plea on the man- slaughter charge. Minutes later William Warren, 34, entered a si- milar’ plea. They will be sen-

ing house. Another child and two adults were victims of the fire.

The sudden ending of the mur- der trials came after 18 witnesses had been heard.

Arthur E. Evans testified Mon- day that Warren was promised $500 by Plouffe for starting the fire. Evans said that he drove ‘Plouffe to Montreal the day ‘of ithe fire.

He said Plouffe told him that Warren had agreed to “‘do the job” of setting the building afire for $500, suggesting it would be paid out of $40,000 in insurance on the building.

“I took \it -as-a joke,” said Evans, “thinking he was only fooling.””

'gentina Walkout Smashed

By SAM SUMMERLIN BUENOS AIRES (AP) — The government of President Arturo Frondizi Tuesday apparently smashed a nationwide walkout called by Communists and fol- lowers of former dictator Juan D. Peron.

“It’s all over,” declared a spokesman emerging from a long ‘conference in Casa Rosada, the government house.

An order p utting-transport ane St eae Aires under

army jurisdiction and threatening them with court martial unless they returned to work appeared to have broken the back of the strike.

Drivers and motormen. trudged back to work and buses and street cars began rolling again. Armed police and troops rode the cars and buses and guarded the stations. Rail and subway work- ers, already mobilized under pre- vious orders, were at work as

Opposition Charges Jobs Program ‘Drop In Bucket

OTTAWA (CP) — The federal government's winter works pro- gram, designed to create jobs during the slack winter. nionths, is producing meagre results, Lib- eral Opposition members charged Tuesday in the Commons.

The question of mounting unem- ployment and the federal pro- gram to help municipalities cre- ate winter jobs got the big play during the second day of the 10- day throne speech debate.

Hubert Badanai (L—Fort Wil- liam), for eight years mayor of the lakehead city, said the gov- ernment should do more for mu- nicipalities than its current pro-

gram.

The federal! assistance— amounting to half the labor costs involved in special municipal pro- jects that would not normally be undertaken in winter—had in fact

given work to only 120 men‘ in “ort William, he said. Mr. Badanai sai the goverp-

ment should make loans to mu- nicipalities at low interest rates. This would enable them to finance public works projects.

Meanwhile, H. J. Robi (L—Gloucester) said only two per cent of the unemployed would get work from the govern- ment’s highly - publicized winter works program. That,was only a drop in the bucket and another example of the government's lack of foresight.

Meanwhile, the government is- sued figures Tuesday showing that at mid-December there were an estimated 440,000 unemployed, 79,000 more than in mid-Novem- ber and 48,000 more than at the corresponding time a year pre- vious.
