Would Abolish

Railways Agreed Charge Contracts

OTTAWA, (CP) - A spokesman for one of Canada's largest chain food store operators Friday urged the abolition of federal legislation permitting Canadian railways to enter into agreed charge contracts with shippers.

The recommendation, was made by Edward Davidson, executive assistant of Loblaw Oroeeterias Company Limited, to a royal com- mission studying the controversial agreed charge issue. Agreed charges are special low contract rates given by the railways In re- turn for it guaranteed percentage of a sliipper's business.

Mr. Davidson said the propped formula to give the railways greater freedom to make agreed charge contracts with shippers would destroy the motor transport. industry and threaten the ability of a private company to operate Its own highway transport.

SET COMPETITIVE RATES

Mr. Davidson said the railways could compete with trucks with competitive rates comparable to tolls in agreed charge c0nti'ai'IJ Competitive rates are set by the railways but they intisi show the board of transport coinniissioners the rates are necessary to meet competition and are conipcnsatory.

The company opposed agreed charges because they required a shipper to give a set percentage of his freight to the railways. This nieiint the Loblaiv company was prevented from deciding the type of transport for goods it purchased from a shipper wiio was it party to an agreed charge.

"Since we are pnyiiig the trans- portation charges we feel we have

l the right to decide what method of transportation is to be used to get the merchandise to otir ware- hoinses," Mr. Davidson said.

Agreed charge contracts con- tnined no guarantee of service by the railways. This was important. to his company because most of its products must be moved quickly to prevent losses through market fluctuations.

ileport Pope Continued from page 1

Thursday, not Friday, when he spoke of the Pontiff's collapse as having taken place yesterday. He was interviewed at his office early Saturday morning.

This was De Stefano's statement to The Associated Press:

”I was called to the bedside of the Holy Father early yesterday (Thursday) afternoon. I visited him and I found that his condition at that time appeared desperate.

”The abdomen was very swol-I len. The first diagnosis was thati he had suffered a perforation of the abdomen. Before deciding to make an emergency operation we carried out x-rays and clinical ex- aminations which, however, as re- sulted much later, gave negative results. y

"Notwithstanding the comforting results of the examination, Prof. (Riccardo) Gaieazzi-Lisi and my- self were still very much worried and, tlicrefore, decided to call a consultation.

BETTER T0 WAIT

"Since the Holy Father's heai-t" was registering exceptionally well, we thought it better to wait for some time and watch the outcome of the crisis.

"Certainly, if his heart had been weaker, there would have been a

chance that yesterday's collapse could have been fatal. "Today. t oge t h e r with my

teacher, Prof. (Raffaclel Paolticci. whom I believe to be one of Europe's leading Sllltflwlns. and Prof. (Antonio) Ga.”-barrini of Botti- gira University, we have examined the Holy Father.

"The consultation lasted for more than two hours. We have found him in the best of spiritual condition.

RECOVERING RAPIDLY

”I cannot say the same for his.

physical condition, at least for noiv.

selections and prices.

”I-Iowever, lam glad to an- nounce that the Pope is recovering very rapidly.

"I believe that he is no more in imminent danger of death. I

"With the treatment he is Ituuj undergoing, I hope the Pontiff Wiii' be able to recover soon and cunt-. plctely regain his strength aivl' health."
