Mau- rice Forget, president of Quebec Natural Gas Corporation, said Saturday he does not know whether Quebec government offi- cials have been shareholders in the company. “Like any individuals, these people may have bought shares through their brokers,” he said. “I know nothing about that.” The company president, who also is president of the invest- ment firm of Forget and Forget, described as “pure falsehood” a story by the newspaper Le De- voir which said a $20,000,000 stock market coup was involved in his company taking over the gas distribution system of Que- bec. Hydro. ' He said about 50 brokerage firms handled sale of corporation bonds and debentures when it ar- ranged its financing. “The ‘lot was sold within 24 hours. In tact most of the securities were sold in advance." GOT ORIGINAL PRICE Col. Forget said the corpora- tion got only the original sale price of the securities. . “Il.the price went up after- wards, this was simply due to ordinary market fluctuations," He said that when the coun- pa-ny was incorporated, its cap- ital was $50,000 but when it made deposits on its purchase of Que- bec Hydro gas system, it had ob- tained $5,000,000 from seven in- stalment companies. The loans were guaranteed by 544,906 class B shares turned over to the lenders and these later became common shares. Commienting on Le Devoi-r’: statement Friday that high offi-. cialvs. of Quebec Hydro obtained “lush options”. from the gas cor- poration, Col. Forget said two "special-istzs” Joined the OTTAWA, — (Special) —- A veteran Liberal MP from New- foundland charged last‘ night that Prime Minister Diefenbaker and the governments hospitality committee had discriminated against the Liberal Province in the coming visit of Princess Margaret. Ohesley W. Carter, who has represented Burin-Bvurgeo riding since 1949, accused Mr. Diefen- baker of “deliberately by-pass- ing” Manitoba, Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland be- cause of their Liberal adminis- tration. The Princess, who ar- rives in Canada on July 12,to at- tend British Columbia’s centen- nial celebrations, will tour all provinces but those three. “What the Prime Minister has done,” declared Mr. Carter in an inter- view, “is place the three Liberal Provinces in exactly the same category as the Doukhobors.” His reference was to the re- cent decision of the government to eliminate that part of the Princess's itinerary that would have taken her to the Doukhobor area in the West Kootenays of British Columbia. The Sons of Freedom sect of the Doukhobors have been resorting -to violence in that region, and the govern- ment feared further outbreaks during the Princess’s visit. The Doukhobons frequently s t a g e nude parades, burn schoolhouses and blow up railway tracks and highways. Mr. Carter said with some irritation that it was “unthink- able” that the Prime Minister, who puts the final stamp of ap- proval on Her Royal Highnesses’ itinerary, should have passed up Newfoundland, the newest Pro- vince of Confederation. “A lot of Newfoundland people are going to be disappointed," he said, “because we've seldom been passed over when royalty visits Canada. You would think Mr. Diefenbaker would have made certain the Princess would go to Newfoundland even if only for a brief stay.” It was equally disturbing to him, said Mr. Carter, that Prince Edward Island “should VETERAN TEACHER DIES SAINT JOHN, N.

Between them they received from the corporation options to buy 15,000 shares at $10 each, he said. “This was to interest them in the company and compensate them for leaving an inrsti-tution of- fiering security for one offering less.” SEES N0 MYSTERY Col. Forget said there ' was “nothing mysterious" about the Quebec ‘Coup’ Charges Called ‘Pure Falsehood’ corporations financing and that all details were disclosed in the ‘company prospectus. The prospectus dated April 15, 1957, said that Kenneth B. Lucas, who became the corporations general manager, was given an option up to March, 1962, to buy 10,000 shares at $10 each. Thomas E. Cross, who became vice - president for engineering and operations, received a sim- ilar option to buy 5,000 shares. Roads Minister Bought 30‘ Shares; Finance Head Silent BAIIEE OOINJIEAU. Que.

The latest assess- ment of the Village shows that the property value has now reach- ed $1,304,960. Under a newly pro- claimed order-in-council the Gov- ernment has agreed to guaran- tee village bonds to 20 per cent of the assessed -uation. START IMMEDIATELY The Parkdale Commission re- ports that several investment firms have made inquiries re- garding the bond issue and have asked.for the opportunity to bid. This matter they believe will be settled today. The contract for digging the sewerage line and laying the pipe has been awarded to Wheaten Construction Company of Mono- ton who have had widespread experience in this field of work. Their contract for $40,055 a day was the lowest tender and calls for completion in four months with a $50 a day penalty clause for every day they exceeded the required time. Others who submitted tenders on the job were County Con-. & Wate See Expansion Erd With Improved Facilities Added 0 I‘ stru-ction, $41,565; Ashtield Con- struction Co. Fredericton, N.B. $46,787, M.F.

The material is being supplied by J_ A. Likely Cc. Saint John for a cornrtact price of $37,000 lauded by the Canadian National Rail- ways on the site. The pipe used eight inches to 18”. THANKS GOVERNMENT The Village of Parkdale, Mr. MacLean said. is very grateful to the Provincial Government for the assistance given. “Without this co-operation, our task ‘in meeting this commitment would have been most difficult", he added. The Commissioners of Parkdalc believe that the area will now experience a tremendous expan- sion boom both from a residen- tial and industrial standpoint. They point out that choice bulld- lng lots with sewerage and water facilities will be a great induce- ment for home owners to build -and the presence of railway lines in two sections of the area would be conducive to industrial build- ng.
