Chairman J. G. Bisson’s pian| won't have a quick payoff, but in the long run it could have the) effect of fitting workers into jobs for which they ordinarily would not be qualified, thereby easing unemployment.

Mr. Bisson has the simple idea that people drawing unemploy- ment insurance would be better off getting educated for new jobs instead of just sitting around and cashing weekly cheques.

Many of these, workers can never go back to their old jobs.

This is because automation or other factors may have erased} the jobs.

Why not, says Mr. Bisson, edu- cate them for new jobs while they are collecting unemployment in- surance benefits?

Compulsion Is Eased In Hospital Insurance

Some alleviation of the collec- tion of Hospital Insurance pre- miums from disignated collector groups has been authorized by the Island’s new Progressive- Conservative government.

In a statement released to the press yesterday afternoon Pre- mier W. R. Shaw said that some made | to the present regulations. These | changes were designed to relieve ; the matter of compulsory deduc- tions in collector groups to some extent, Mr. Shaw added.

“Where strong ' objection is taken to compulsory deductions, at certain organizational levels, a member may avoid such deduc- tions by a direct payment in ad- vance policy,”’ he said.

SUCCESS NOTED

The government had ascertain- ed that the plan was going for- ward in a very successful man- ner with a large percentage of insurable persons already _re- corded, the Premier added.

The Premier also informed the press that the provincial secret- ary, Hon. J. David Stewart and the provincial treasurer, Hon. Melvin J. McQuaid this coming week would confer in Montreal with banking authorities and sec- urities oficials in connection with the financial afairs of the Pro- vnce.

“These discussions, will pro- bably embrace plarts covering future action on fiscal maters, he said

Premier Shaw also intimated

certain changes would be forth- coming in the operation of the} department of agriculture which is also under his personal juris- diction.

NEW APPROACH

At a recent meeting of the en- tire staff the work of each ‘mem- ber was reviewed and discussed iand it was decided that from inow on a special effort will be made to carry the departmental services out to the farm people in all parts of the Province, he said.

“This is the chief function of the department,”’ Mr. Shaw stat- ed. “In this connection all ex- tension personnel have been ask- ed to prepare for organizational work to contact our farm people in groups as well as on an. in- dividual basis.”

* yon PM Succumbs To Wounds

COLOMBO, Ceylon (AP)— Prime Minister Solomon Bandar- anaike died today from bullet wounds inflicted Friday by an assassin clad in the robes of a Buddhist monk.

The death announcement came after a report said the prime minister spent a restful night.

Bandaranaike, 60, was struck by three .45-calibre bullets in the attack- at his private bungalow at Roomead Place, Colombo's|- most luxurious residential area.

The bullets damaged the liver, spleen and one arm of the frail British-educated prime minister.

After the shooting, Bandara- naike forgave his -attacker and appealed for compassion for ‘this foolish man.’

Bandaranaike then underwent | five hours of corrective surgery, but after the operation a medi- cal bulletin had reported him still gravely ill.

ASSASSIN CAUGHT i

The assassin was shot in one knee by a sentry and captured.

Bandaranaike, a champion of Ceylonese independence from Britain, had led this island na- tion into the Asian neutral bloc. He took power in April 1956 on a

Coal Crisis Deepens NS. Premier Warns

HALIFAX (CP) — The Nova Scotia coal industry, hounded by competition from other fuels, faces a crisis perhaps more seri- ous than any other.

There was .«o note of optimism. The premier said, however, that) a conference of interested parties|

Mike Comments On Causeway

OTTAWA CP)—The people of Prince Edward Island are in for a disappointment over promises of a causeway to link the island with the mainiand, Opposition Leader Pearson said. Friday.

He was asked by delegates at the national convention of the Young Liberal Federation of Can- ada for his views on the promises by Rrogressive Conservatives in the recent P.E.I. election that the causeway will be built.

“P.E.I. will be~ disillusioned about Conservative promises on that,"” Mr. Pearson said.

The federal Conservatives had stg = be build it if elected but

Govt. Seen Interyening ‘As Steel Talks Collapse.

NEW YORK (AP) — Fruitless | strike collapsed Friday. The negotiations in the 74-day steel | onions heightened the pos-

oot sibility of government interven- tion to open the mills.

The striking United ‘Stee]work- ers Union said it saw no point in continuing the talks as long as the industry insists on work re- | gulating concessions. The union says these are aimed at “union busting.”’

“We are going home,” nounced union president David. 4 McDonald. “This farcical filibus- ter . . . has ended.”

The union is ready to resume talks if it receives from the in-

dustry ‘‘an honest offer worthy | of consideration by self-respect- ing steel workers,"” McDonald said.

Asked if the union would re- sume talks if the government re- quests it, he replied:

“We have never resisted a call of our government. But We see no sense in coming back to New | York City. The seat of the gov- ernment is in Washington. The seat of the Steel industry is in Pittsburgh.”’

More than 500,000 steelworkers,

‘| plus tens of thousands of work- ers in related industries, have been made idle since the strike began July 14, '

In the UN General Assembly Thursday, External Affairs Mite ister Green asked: “‘Should the UN not now find a way to express its continuing interest in Laos?”

He added: “‘Such an approach, if it were welcome to Laos, could make a most valuabie eontribu- tion to stability.
