OTTAWA (CP) = J; Patrick Nowland (PC Bae Annap- olis-Kings! broke with the party caucus Wednesday night and ‘told the Commons ‘he will vole for the Liberal government's strike-ending legislation.

_ The rookie MP, whose father

“This is admitting defeat.” The government bill was in- adequate and had caused right- ful concern ‘‘but the only. vehtl- ele-.we have left is the bill.’ ~He...felt..the..course..P-arliament—;
