Pearson Defends Stand at Taken By -GOV',t In V Sending Force To Korea

OTTAWA. Sept. t-(OP)-Oa.n'- ada bu nothing to apolcgiae'for.ln the way she responded to the Unit- ed Nationa call for help in Korea. External,Affairs Minister Pearson said today in the Commons.

Replying to Opposiicn criticisms of "dilatory" and "irieffective"act- ion. Mr. Pearson said Canada "tak- er a proud place" among those who provided effective help in stemm- ing Russian aggression in Korea.

He told the House that in its special brigade. the Government believes Canada her "started some- thing important" -- the establish- ment of U. N. strength that will not only be used in Korea but will ensure that the U. N. will have forces in being to throw against the next aggression.

Mr. Pearson undertook a general defence of Canada's foreign policy -particularly on its Korean action -as the Commons moved into the late stages of the Throne-speech debate.

The House, was pointing towards an early vote on a Progressive Con- servative motion of non-confidence in the Government over its hand- ling of defence and the cort-of-liv- in: problem.

During the day. Opposition speakers tackled the Government on both counts. They called on the Cabinet to take action against the rise in living costs and to give the public more information on chow the defence dollar is being spent. John Diefenbaker (PC -Lake Centre) accua.d Ministers of "de- touring from the truth"vand uid Canadians would be willing to pay higher taxes for defence if they were given facts to show that their money was being spent efficiently and effectively. , Stanley Knowles (OOPl-winni- peg North Centre) asked the Gov- ernment to couple military meal- Iures wiiflh economic and social action against; Communism. on the domestic front. he demanded a rollback of prices.

Charge: Evasion

Howard Green (PC-Vancouver Quadra) taxed the Government with "evasion and hesitation" about sending ground troops to Korea. and said its policy secured to be to let someone else do the fighting there for the first six months.

Angus Meclnnls (CC1"-Van- couver East) asked the Govern- ment to clarify Canada's posit- ion on Korea and declared Can- ada should "get busy building our defences all along the line."

Two French-Canadian mem- ibeirs during the day expressed opposing views on Canada's part- icipation i.n,the Korean conflict.

P. is. Gagnon (Ind-Chiccutimi) opposed the dispatch of a Can- adian force to Korea. but Maurice Boisvert (L - Nicolet-Yamaskr) defended the action.

Mr. Pearson told the commons that the government rejects any suggestion that it has not done its duty with regard to U. N. oblig- ations in Korea. .

Concerning Mr. Girean de- mand for a Pacific pact, Mr. Pearson denied that he had ridic- uled such an idea. but said it would be "very rash policy at this time" to make the same card- mitments to all Asiatic states as had been made on the Atlantic side.
