OTTAWA (CP)-Prime Minister st. Laurent said Tuesday newt- paperrwould he "better advised" not to report statements attributed to unnamed officials.

lie. was replying in the Com- mon: to Opposition leader Drew who said a Canadian Press re- port Mondly nisht had Q un- named defence department official discussing a subject "which the government has- refused to dis- cuss" in the Commons.

The subject is the announced retirement Aug. 31 of Lt.-Gen. Guy Simonds. 52, chief of the gen- eral staff. and his succession by Maj.-Gen. Howard Graham. 56. now chief of the army's central command.

DEMANDS OFFICIAUS NAME

Mr. Drew. rising on a question of privilege at the Commons opening. said the offlclnl's com- ment on Gen! Simonds' retire- ment was issued in the form of a statement handed to the press. He demanded the name of the official.

He also said the report was I definite attempt to affect the course of Commons discussion on

defence estimates come before the house Thursday.

Actually. the defence depart- ment has issued no statement concerning Gen. Simonds' retire ment except for the brief an- nouncement last week by Defence Minister Campney that the general is being retired because he has "completed the normal four-year tour."

NOT KNOWN T0 ST. LAURENT

Mr. St. Laurent said he didn't know the name of the official and added:

"I did not know that the state- ment was going to be made and I deprecate these statements at- tributed to high officials or to official or semi-official sources without disclosing the identity of the one who is munic..ting the information.

”I do not think that is a proper t'0Ul'Se to he followed and it seems to me that the newspapers themselves would be better ad- vised if they did not take the re- sponsibility of reporting disclosures of that kind for which the one making the disclosure is not will-

”I was curious . . . to knnii who had made such a statement and I shall endeavor to find out,"

DEPARTMENT POLICY

The CP stury quoted the official as saying there is a defence ile- parlment policy of retiring cliiefs of staff after four years and that Gen. Simo is willing and ready to step d n. Gen. Simonds be- came army chief Feb. 1, I951.

tMr. Drew previously had asked MI. St. Laurent to explain why Gen. Simonds, who he described as the most highly-skilled officcr ever produced in Canada, should be retired.

He has suggested that Gen. Simonds be promoted to chairman of the chiefs of staff, a job which has been held for more than four years by Gen. Charles Foulkes, who preceded Gen. Simonds as chief of the general staff.

Mr. Drew has also protested that the retirement of Gen. Sim- onds was announcrd outside the Commons.

He said Tuesday that if a state- ment was to be made by the de- fence department on the general's retirement, the Commons had the right to know it and the right to know who the official was who gave this statement.
