William -Hamilton. for Montreal Notre - Dame - de- Grace, was renewing his protest against the granting oi Canadian citizenship to Madame Giovanna Elisa Feltrineili of Rome.

The woman lived on a yacht in the Mediterranean for seven months preceding her date of application for citizenship al- though citizenship laws require that an applicant must reside con- tinuously in Canada for one year preceding the date of application.

Citizenship Minister Pickersgill did not” offer any detailed ex- planation ior the granting of cit- izenship to the mlllionairess.

Mr. Hamilton also said several cabinet members knew the facts in the case.

He read a letter which he'said Trade Minister Howe had written to Montreal lawyer Nathan Levit- sky. co to opponents to the application. acknowledging receipt of facts in the case. And yet, Mr. Hamilton added. Mr. Howe --"injured hinooence dripping from him like water from a Lake Ontario swimmer" -had professed no knowledge of the case when it had been in- troduced in the Commons earlier in the week.

countess felt she had been denied her full share of a O65.000.ili0 inheritance.

Mr. Plckersgill's reply was con- fined mainly to Proceedings of the Montreal ltizenship court.

He said citizenship hearings are not held in public because some questions by the are of a very personal nature. There was provision that representations can be made in writing to the court from opponents of an application "Certain representations" had been made in this can and had been considered. '

Mr. Pickersglll said Mr. Ham- ilton's description of the court as a "star chamber" was "quite in- appropriate."
