Opposition Leader Diefen- baker asked whether the two Soviet officials, who were .or- dered out of Canada last May in connection with the Spencer case, were in Canada in 1960.

“Oh, don’t look so shocked,” Mr. Cardin snapped. ‘‘Don't put on an act, -you don’t impress anybody."

REJECTS INQUIRY —

Mr. Cardin for the third time rejected a judicial inquiry into the case after Mr. Diefenbaker |

= |renewed his appeal for one.

Spencer, 57, was fired as a post office clerk and his pension | rights cancelled. Mr. Cardin | repeated that Spencer is being |

‘\kept under surveillance . |though he gan’t be prosecuted because

victed and security procedures would be compromised.

Mr. Diefenbaker said Spencer has been ten o ~by despot- ism."

“The cdeutndcl won't place him in the dock~but will place him forever in a pillory.

“He has been judged outside the law, convicted without evi- dence ‘and punished without verdict.. He carries a stigma as a traitor to his country.”.

CAPITAL BUREAU OF THE GUARDIAN OTTAWA_— Heath Macquar- rie, MP for Queens, forecast a return to ice_of the Shaw government in Prince Edward Island but he declined to guess at the date of the com- ing provincial election.

Mr. Macquarrie returned to Ottawa -from_ Charlottetowa where he attended the opening of the P.E.I. Legislature.

Mr: Macquarrie is a meni- ber of the executive of the Cait- adian parliamentary group and former: chairman.

“Last September demonstrat- ed I am much less successful in
