SPECIAL TIE JUST NOTICED

OTTAWA (C'P)—-A sartorial accomplishment by Governor- General Massey has escaped Ottawasshtarp - eyed news- paper men for more than two years.

A Government House offi- cial disclosed Monday that Mr. Massey some two years ago designed a special tie, later approved by the Queen, to be worn by present and past Governors-Genenal and members of their personal staffs.

“We have been wearing the tie for just about two years,” the otlfitcial said. “Tl . Gov- ernor-General and his staff wear the tie periodically but do not m-aloe a practice of_ wearing it all the time."

The tie is of dark blue silk, with a royal crown near the knot. The pattern of the tie coutsislzs of tiny gilt maple leaves in a staggered fashion.

Mr. Massey has sent ties to former Governors - General Lord Alexander, the Earl of Athlone and Lord Bessbor- outgh.

Things Go Smoothly In Auto Plants

DETROIT (AP) — General Mo- tors, Ford and Chrysler reported the first full day of operations on a no - contract basis with the United Auto‘ Workers Union went smoothly Monday.

An butward calm pr-evailed at -the big three’s plants as’ UAW members carried out president Walter P. Reuter’s orders to work without contra-cts and not provoke strikes.

But tension‘ and uncertainty pointed to a summer-long dead- lock in new attempts, to reach wage settlements.

Auto makers are caught in an economic recession with more than 750,000 new cars in dealers’ hands. The union estimates 200,- 000 of its members have been laid off.

GM and the UAW failed to agree on when or where to re- sume broken off negotiations.

‘UN Given Peasant Surprise

UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (AP) —Premier de Gaulle’s overture for peace bttween Tunisian and French soldiers c. ught the United Nations Security Council by pleasant surrprits. Monday nitglhrt.

The council agreed to stand aside until mid-week to await de- velopments and the possibility that the French-Tunisian crisis may be resolved through U.S. and British good offices.

De Gaulle’s message from Paris to Tunisia’s President Habiib Bouzngtuitba in Tunis said the new French regime is ready to settle difficulties between the two countrim. 0

De Gaulle’s statement and at conciliatory move by the French representative in the council here indicated the dispute is moving from bitter public debate back to private negotiations.

(However, a. Reuters news agency dispatch from T-unis Mon- day night quoted a- government spokesman as saying fighting flared up again between French and Tunisian forces in the Re- mada area of South Tlll1lJ."‘t.)

TRUST DE GAULLE

French Ambassador Guillaume Georges-Picot called ‘on Tunisia in thccouncil to resume private talks and put trust in de Gaulle.

The United States and Britain endorsed the proposal for private taltkts and indicated their good of- fices team was ready to resume efforts.

These views were expressed in the 11-nation council after Tunis- ian Ambassador Mo ngi Slim atsloed it to take all steps neces- sary to compel French soldiers to quit Tunisian soil Such steps could include use of force if the

council decided it was needed.

WAS]-IIINGTON (AP) — The United States has told Russia that it is keeping a watch on Soviet ships standing on the Grand Banks off Newfoundland a-nd that it intends to keep right on with what it calls “routine surveil- lance."

Russia had protested that U.S. planes had buzzed its travvlers in international waters. State de- partment press officer Lincoln White said Monday the U.S. an- swer had been along these lines:

“The United States Navy con- , ducts routine surveillance of ship- ping in the ocean approaches to the United States.

“Soviet trawler: have been sighted from time to time In con- ducting the surveillance it is sometimes necessary to approach within visual identification range of ships being invesrtiga-ted.”

The United States insisted no international rules were broken in having a look at what the Rus- sians were WP 00- ’

“Freedom of navigation in the open seas,” the statement said, “is not violated in any manner by such reconnaissance.”

Montd-ay’s announcement seemed to be only another step in an area in which longstand- ing uneasiness has prevailed.

PROTESTED IN. APRIL

‘ The Russians made their pro- test in mid-April, and White said the reply had been prompt.

The uneasiness arises from this:

A half dozen Russian fisliintg vessels are on constant station about 100 miles off the east coast of Canada. U.S. authorities con- cede these vessels have every right to be there.

But the navy has noticed some

interesting details. The number never seems to vary..Wthen one

LONDON (AP) - European reaction to Gen. Charles de Gaulle’s a c c e s sio n to power ranges from fear and cautious approval down to the laughter of political cartoonists. Asian and African reaction was scant and mixed.

A big question in Europe was whether de Gaulle would try a separate approach to Moscow. In the Ruhr city of Essen, for in- stance, Socialist Carlo Schmid told a political meeting:

“A man from Paris will prob- bably get to Mos-cow ahead of the Germans. Then, not only NA'_I‘0 but the idea of European unity will be threatened."

In Norway, the Conservative Morgen-bladet said Russia “may make contact with de Gaulle, give him concessions, and in this

way try to split NATO and the unity between the Western all-

Liberals Suggest PC's Are Divided On Tax Issue 1

OTTAWA (CP) — Opposition leader Pearson, demanding that last Novemtber’s brief federal- proviucitatl conference b recon- vened lmtmediattely to deal with unemployment and other urtgentl: problems, suggested Mon- day there are “hidden reasons" for not calling the conference.

Paul Martin, former Liberal health minister, suggested the

reason stems from “serious dif-

ferences” between Prime Minis- ter Diefenbaker and Finance Min- ister Fleming on the principle of sharing tax fields with the prov- intcets.

Their Commons speecles, how- ever, on a nonconfidence motion presented by Mr. Pearson, pro- duced no new indication from the government of when a contfe; ence with the provinces may be held.

Mr. Fleming said: “When the time is ripe. and there is op- portunity for resumption of a dominion - provincial conference, of course one be held.”

“This year, next year, some- time, never,” interject ‘ J. W. Plckensgill, fionmer Liberal im- migration minister. ~

The Russians, on, the other hand, have protested a U.S. mil- itary plane has come i-n, ‘mast- head high, on the trawlers.

The navy said Russian fishing vessels have been operating in the Grand Banks region since 1956.

It said the Russians now oper- ate about a dozen fishing trawl- ens and factory ships in the area. The vessels range in size from about 600 tons to 2,600 tons lr dis- placement.

Canada Sees Nothing Amiss In Russian Banks’ Activities

OTTAWA ('CP)-«Fisheries and naval sources Monday said there appears to be nothing unusual in Russian fishing trawlers marking their fishing grounds with buoys and flying small Soviet flags.

Russian fishermen use larger trawlers and fish more systemat- ically and in deeper waters‘ on the Grand Banks off Newfound- land than do Western fishing fleets.

For years the Russians have used buoys to mark the fishing areas in which they are working and in this way are able to cover the area more efficiently than they would w i t h o u t markers. Modern detection gear also is frequently used.

The international waters fished by the Russians are frequented by other vessels and their activ- ities have been well known for

U.S. HAPPY

The United States already has expressed its gratification that the crisis in Francenow seemed

over. A White House statement ‘

said Sunday the United States looks forward to a continuation of “intimate and friendly rela- tions” with France.

In New Delhi, -the Indian Ex- press commented that the only encouraging feature of de Gaulle’-s return to power is that the French crisis was settled through parliamentary democ- racy, “even if the spirit was ex- punged."

The Egyptian newspaper Al Schaa_b in Cairo said France was betrayed by its leaders in bring- ing de Gaulle to power. France lost its honor and its liberty, the paper said.

isting tax-sharing princilple of equalization.

The motion, which will be voted on '1‘-uesday night, came as an amendment to the ,govern- ments first supply motion of the session. 2

In other Commons develop- ments Monday:

1. The government tabled sup-. plementary e x p e n ditures esti- mates totalling $58,151,061 for the current fiscal year, boosting its spending program announced so far to a record of some $5,800,-- 000,000. .

2. Prime Minister Diefenbaker said his latest letter from Soviet Premier K h r u shchev indicates “continuing refusal” by Russia to understand Canada's position on Arctic nuclear inspection.

3. Arnold Peters (OCF--Titmis- kaming) introduced a bill to pro- hibit publication of pre &IL..:‘l7l.0l‘l straw votes or public opinion polls.

The last federal-provincial con- ference was held here Nov. 25-26. The pnovi-noes presented individ- ually their case for s. greater share of federal tax revenue, but the Progressive Conservative gov- ernment, then in office only 5% months, said it was there to listen and it presented no tax-sharing proposals.

SOON AS POSIBLE

The government indicated it would reconvene the conference as soon as possible. In January, in reply to persistent otpposltion demands, it said a new confer- ence could not be held then be- cause of the heavy comrniv-tments of the parliament then in session.

In thesame month, the govern- ment announced an increase in the province's share of the per- sonal income tax field which it said would amount to an addi- tional $62,000,000 in the current fiscal year. The LIIJCITBSJSG applies only to this year, ending next March 31. '

Mr. Peanson said the Com- mons should be told why the con- ference has not been reconvened.

Was there “some hidden rea- son, arisitng out of the expen- diture promises made by the gov- ernment and their relation to the worsening position of the federal treasury?"

Mr. Pearson referred to the fact that Ontario’s Premier Frost, who in November had asked for

years since the Second World War.

Washington reports have said the Russian trawler fleet behaves in a suspicious manner and the U.S. Navy has kept watch on the vessels.

Naval sources here said the Canadian Navy follows normal practice in checking up on all foreign vessels approaching Ca- nadian waters.

in his province’s share of tax payments by Ottawa, had received only a $22,000,000 increase.

“M.r. Frost wants more . . . and is not to be put off by $22,000,- 000."

He said Premier Frost had pro- posed a tax - sharing formula which, if the present system of equalization for less - wealthy provinces were retained, would

001st almovst $1.000,000,000 a year.‘

That compared with the present $683,000,000 cost of the plan.

In the 1957 election campaign Mr. Frost had supported Mr. Diefenbaker. The province's vot- ers were led to believe Ontario would get what Mr. Frost de- manded only from a Progressive Conservative government at Ot- tawa.

ACCEPT 0NTARIO’S DEMAND

The Commons now had a right to know whether Ontario's de- mand was to be accepted.

Mr. Pearson said that in 1955, when unemployment w~s less than half its present extent, the former Liberal government had “pillori ” by the Conservative opposition for not calling a. con- ference with the provinces on un- employment. Now, government figures estimated unemployment at 515.000 in mid-April compared with 306,000 a year earlier. _

De Gaulle Write New

PARIS (AP) -- Premier de Gaulle ramnned the last of his re- form program through the Ila- tional Assembly early today.

The crucial test came on de Gaulle’s demand for power to re- writc the constitution. He had warned the deputies he would re- s'tgn—at'ter one day in ocflfiitce—-and leave the nation facing civil war unless the measure was passed without continued parliameuta wrangling. ‘

It passed 350 to 163. The major- ity was greater even than the 329 to 224 vote by which de Gaulle was made premier Sunday.

The vote completed Astsemibly action on de Gaulle’s three-point emengeucy program.

Earlier the Assembly voted him full powers to rule by decree in France for six months and gave him special powers to deal with

, the Algerian nationalist rebellion.

’l‘hos~e two measures also cleared their final parliamentary hurdles in the senate.

- Latest Expdnditures Will Add 58 Million To Total

OTTAWA (CP) — The govern- ment Monday extpanded its pro- posed unprecedented spending program for the current fiscal

year, asking Parliament for new outlays on public worl«'ns—includ- ing the South Saskatchewan Dam, a Quebec penitentiary and aship for the West Indies.

It also agreed to absorb $2,- 145,000 worth _ of wheat board losses in marketing prairie oats at prices less than those paid farmers. It was the first loss of this kind since the board started marketing oats eight years ago.

The new proposals would add another $58,151,000 to the main anticipated extpenditures of $5,- 734,000,000 announced May 13 for the year started April 1. Gov- ernment requests for additional money are expected to be placed before Parliainent later in the year, bringing spending to well over $6.000,000,000.

Included in this $6,000,000,000 would be the cost of old age pen- sions but not various federal loans which would boost outlays by another $253,500,000. The latest stage in federal lending was $27,- 500,000 iucluded in Monday’-s 91-p- plementany estimates tabled in the Commons by Finance Minis- ter Fleming.
