The complicationsmre the op- position leader barred by law from returning his pay cheques to the government and tthlt he must pay income tax on his salary, whether he cashes his cheques or not.
Mr. Diefenbaker is understood to be seeking an arrangement under which he will be free to reject $8.000 increase in MPs' pay without violating the aw.
T'ie informant said the oppo-
sition leader feels duty bound to refuse the increase after criticizing it in the Commons and voting against it.
The pay increase bill was passed in the Commons by a vote of 200 to 10. Six Conserva- tives and three Creditistes joined Mr. Diefenbaker in oppo- sing the boost because they felt it was too large and the gov- ernment had no mandate from the voters to propose such an mcrease.
