Nuclear Arms Become Daily Issue In Commons By DAVE McINTOSH OTTAWA (CP)—The issue of guclear weapons for Canada ‘was broached every day in the Commons last week during the Question period But MPs were no wiser at the @ad of the week than at the beginning. Perhaps the most significant point was not anything that was said but a single heavy round of applause ssive Conservative benches This followed Prime Minister Diefenbaker’s opening state- ment of the week that “if war came, should nuclear weapons be used against us, Canadian troops participating should not be denied the right to use nu- elear weapons. At the time of the Russian nuclear tests last fall the Con- servative caucus came out in favor of acquisition of nuclear warheads. There have been re. Hable but unconfirmed reports since that government aides ac- tually drafted a tentative state- ment announcing that Canada would obtain American nuclear arms BEAT STEADY TATTOO Opposition Leader Pearson, Paul Martin (L—Essex East) and Paul Hellyer, Liberal de- fence critic, beat a steady tattoo Of inquiries on the ees of Mr. Diefenbaker said Monday that if nuclear war were launched “nuclear weapons should be placed in the posses- mn of Canadians.”* But he also said the nuclear family should not be increased as long as there is any possi- bility of disarmament And as long as, disarmament was “to the the question of joint Guints United States Joint control over any nuclear ads on Canadian territory was “hypothetical.” In any event, Mr. Diefenbaker ied, “joint control is impos- sible” because of the require- ments of U.S. law that Ameri- an nuclear warheads must re main in American custody until LASTER BRIEFS CUpe cALaaay | CALGARY Barrie Bruce White left re- cently for Calgary.

On Thursday, U.S. State Sec- retary Dean Rusk said the U.S. is willing to work out with Can- ada “arrangements for joint control fully consistent with na- tional sovereignty.” erals immediately wanted to know what Mr. Dief- enhaker thought about that The prime minister said Thursday: “I shall have to give study to the remarks of Secre- tary Rusk, and when I have done so I will make a report to this House.” HAS NO COMMENT On Friday, however, Mr. Dief- enbaker said he would have no comment on Mr. Rusk’s state- ment. The matter was further com- plicated outside the Commons when Works Minister Walker said in reply to a question on a CBC television program that the government wants “our own sole control” over any nuclear warheads stored in Canada The government has never defined exactly what kind of joint control it wants. In the military at least, joint control is understood to be the system worked out by the U.S and Britain to cover American nuclear weapons stationed in the United Kingdom U.S. MUST APPROVE Under this system, the U.S. president must first approve use of the weapons. Then Brit- ain can decide whether to fire them or not. This, in effect, gives Britain a veto over the firing of American nuclear weapons from its soil. But it prevents Britain from deciding by itself on the firing. one way the U.S. seeks vent the proliferation i inde- pendent national nuclear capa- tol Canada has supported is iefenbaker’s emphasis sat eis of nuclear weapons for Canadian forces in wartime led some officials here to say Two Fined For Fracas is reel fight at the mal and scat abate ae at deay resulted in two young Charlotte- town men being convicted and intense jee by Magistrate A.J.

The Liberals asked whether there was some “secret” agree- ment in this rega Mr. Diefenbaker said there isn't. He also said there are “no immediate: discussions” with the U.S. on the subject of joint control Mr. Pearson on Monday asked how, if joint control were im- possible, Mr. Diefenbaker was going to ensure that nuclear warheads would be in the hands of Canadian forces in event of war. By Friday, this question was still unanswered. CANADA SEEN (Continued from page 1) clear club from increasing its membership is a most critical issue, Mr. Douglas said, when every new. member “increases geometric progression the Gemne nuclear war." ANSWERS QUESTIONS Answering a question from the floor on the matter of Red China, Mr. Douglas pointed to that country as the potential military aggress >, with Russia having turned to advance on economic fronts and infiltra- tion of ideals. He was of the opinion that Canada should recognize Red China as Britain had done, and open diplomatic relations with her. Red China should be join the UN, he said, if she would ac- cept the charter of that body and abide by its decisions, with the entry stipulated by no con- ditions on either side. Regarding the problem of Formosa and Nationalist China in such an event, he recom- mended a “two-China’”’ policy while a plebiscite would be carried out in Formosa as to what government the people | want, CANADA AND NATO Asked to clarify the New | Democratic Party's stand on Canada and NATO, the party leader advocated that this country should remain in that organization while insisting that article two of the constitution be revised and utilized. The article in question regards the contributing of part of the member nations’ defence money to a fund for underprivileged nations. He also advised having the NATO and Warsaw forces under the command of the UN.
