Expressed

MAYOR A. W. GAUDET ions by so many distinguished visitors this past year, Island- m h challenge with " traditional pride of his tory and set ii pace for Canada ’ in its own approaching national centennial of 1967.

“No mayor anywhere could have received greater co-opera- tion from his fellow citizens than I did this past year and I feel assured the benefits of the 1964 publicity for the Island will continue to accrue to our Island province for many years to come."

Mayor Gaudet stressed that the convention and tourist in- dustry here on Prince Edward Island is one of tremendous importance and potential to all citizens and for that reason he regrets—an apparent reference to the proposed causeway—that so man an- thouglitlessly determined to try and improve

“our priceless and bounti- ful heritage arranged by Divine Providence just as soon as hu- man methods to do so can be

arranged. “It‘s true we don‘t have everything here on P .E.I. ”

9 Mayor Gaudet commented “but

having regard to what goes on in so many areas of the world oday. we surely live in a bless- ed land and should thank God for all the privileges of living here in Canada's Garden prov- ince, with its pace and pleasure, and midst the warm hospitality of its wonderful people."

RCMP Recover Stolen Vehicle

SOURIS —— Quick action by Souris detachment of the RC resulted in recovery of a 1958 model car in Souris Tuesday night less than an hour after it was stolen.

The vehicle was the property of Sylvanus MacDonald of Chepstow who was reported to have left the keys in the ignit- ion while attending a bingo game in Souris.

When Mr. MacDonald came out around 9:45 .m.. the car was gone, and he immediately reported the theft to the RCMP. who recovered the vehicle at 0.

He said Mr. Denis denied re- lpeatedly having offered a $20.- ‘000 bribe to Mr. Lamontagne. l‘ But he quoted Mr. Denis as say- ing in French: "Damn it. should never have gotten mixed up in an affair like this."

Mr. Crevier said Mr. Denis added: “Pierre, you’re not mad at me because this affair hap- pened. are you?"

r. Lamontagne had replied: “No. we’re still friends."

Mr. Crevier said the conver- sation. which he mentioned at the request of the RCMP and Mr. Lamontagne. then turned to Mr. Lamontagne’s fears about gangland reprisals against him.

The Montreal lawyer had said

e was worried about rumors circulating in legal circles that lhe had accepted a $20,000 bribe

Mr. Rouleau had not called immediately, however, and the two Mounties had gone ome. . amontagne testified earlier that Mr. Rouleau called him Aug. 11 and 12 to ask him to help obtain Rivard’s release on bail as a favor.

onst. Poissant, an 11-year veteran of the RCMP, said he took few notes while listening to Mr. Lamontagne’s phone con- versation with Mr. Denis Aug.

He had jotted down a few names and the duration of the call on the envelope of a gas bill he carried with him. but had lost the envelope later. Mr. Crevier testified he did not take any notes during the 25-minute phone call. He had jotted down a few names and key phrases afterwards and written a report to the RCMP in English two days later. He said he read Mr. Lamontagne’s statement to the RCMP before drafting his own report. PROCEDURE QUESTIONED When some la w y e r s ques- tioned this procedure, he said RCMP reports always are writ- ten in English. Although he had read Mr. Lamontagne’s state- ment, he had not based his re- port on it.

Mr. Matthews said he will turn over to Judge Dorion the RCMP report on the “leak” in- vestigation. He felt the report should not be made public for reasons of “public policy."

“If it is produced the conse- quences could be very serious for edertain individuals." he
