He started ape-kins slowly but gained confidence. especially when confessing his "sins," as he told for the first time the story of his disappearance 11 years ago. The mystery of his whereabouts ended last month when he gave evidence at the trial of Japanese war criminals.

This-is the story PuYltoldtn

reginy to questions. Aug. 10, 1945, he was at an

airport at Shenyang (Mukden) with two senior Japanese officers. They were on their way to Japan but Pu Yi said he "managed to signal to a eneral behind their backs that wanted to stay in China."

The next day be was flown to Chita in Siberia. where he stayed for a month and then was moved to Habarousk (Chinese name Ball) where he was imprisoned for about five years.

In August, 1950. Pu Yi was handed over to Chinese Commu- nists. Since then, except for a short period in Harbin, he has been kept at Fushun. 0

The Chinese have treated him as an ordinary prisoner, and he said, "I shouldn't be regarded as a former head oi state as I was a traitor to China and helped the Japanese to carry out their ag- gressive policy."

"I was surprised at the lenient treatment I received on returning

to Chlna,L', he said. '

HECTIC SESSION DRAWING

(Continued from page 5) 4:41 a.m.. the latest hour in at least 20 years.

The opposition counter-attack of block and delay was to challenge the legality, under House rules. of nearly every government move. Each time the chair up- held the government. Twenty- four rulings by the chair were challenged, voted on and upheld. Altogether an unprecedented 70 votes were taken during the bill's

Rassage. OT. BLE SIDELIGHTS

There were side developments to the battle.

Donald Flemhig (PC-Toronto Egllnton) on May 25 defied an order by Chairman W. A. Robin- son to be seated and was sus- pended on a motion by the gov- ernment for the rest of the day. It was the first such occurrence in 12 years.

Mr. Drew said he would seek to have Mr. Robinson censured. . . . e I” r . .. charging the government with aubordinating the office of Com- mons chairman to serve its own partisan interests. The motion was ruled out of order.

The debate also produced a departure in Conservative ranks.

Carl Nickle (PC - Calzary South) backed the ipeline bill down the line. He tod reporters he would not seek re-election.

Stanley If owles '(CCF - Win- nlpe North Centre) charged Mr. Nlc o with having a pecuniary interest in the measure. Mr. Nickle, a wealthy oil man and publisher of periodicals on the gas and oil industry. denied the allegation. The matter ended

there. IAIANS T0 FARMS

The matter will be left over to next session, together with rec- ommendations on prison reform by a committee headed by Mr. Justice Gerald Fauteux.
