MPs may vote for pay boost * f Tw< •"•«mV * *9 A ^ i ** -a • V OTTAWA (CP » — Not much has been said yet.but there s a good chance MPs will vote themselves a pay boost in the early stages of the new Parliament If not in the first session, then almost certainly in the next one says one cabinet source Along with everyone else.MPs are teeling the pinch of inflation and the high cost of living *’ The last raise was voted in 1971 when the basic salary for an MP was raised to $18 000 from $12 000 and the tax-free allowance to defray expenses was increased to $8.000 from $6.000 That was three years ago,” says the cabinet source “Can you name anvone else who hasn't had a raise in the last three years.” ASKED FOR REVIEW He said several MPs have al ready asked for a salary review and the pressure will grow steadily if nothing is done Disposing of the problem early in the new Parliament would allow the public outcry that surrounds every pay boost for MPs to settle well before the next election, probably in 1978 Steadily-rising wages in other professions made it difficult in some cases to attract top-notch candidates for the July 8 election.he said “Compared to what a doctor or lawyer gets, an MP's salary looks small ” Like the last increase, the spokesman said, the next will likely follow a review by a spe cially appointed committee But unlike the last time, the issue may be turned over to a permanent committee with the power to make periodic increases on its own TIED TO INDEX This suggestion, taking the matter out of the hands of MPs and perhaps tying increases to the consumer price index or allowing them to float with changes in the salaries of senior civil servants, was made in 1971 But with the 1972 election near mg and MPs anxious to cause as little stir as possible, they chose to stop at a straight pay boost and let longer-term con sidérations drop “This time, something more permanent should be done, the spokesman said The basic $26 000 figure applies to all MPs except the two from the Northern territories They get an extra $1.650 Office holders also are paid more Cabinet ministers with portfolios and the leader of the official opposition are paid an additional $15.000.plus a $2.000 car allowance The prime minister gets an extra $25.000 plus a car allowance, bringing his total salary to $53.000 That looks high to a good many C'anadians but it s still below the $60.000 level that now applies to some senior civil servants- and they work under the prime minister and his cabinet Montreal bus service restored SHERBROOKE FAIR OPENS - The Sherbrooke Fair opened this weekend and thousands of fair-goers took advantage of the beautiful weather Sunday afternoon to visit the exhibition.Everyone enjoyed the fun and excitement of the rides on the midway.(Record photo: James Bruce) MONTREAL (CP) - City bus service was restored at 4 a m EDT today following a weekend of maintenance checks on the buses by supervisory personnel because of the 13-day-old walkout by garage and maintenance Kenora militants surrender arms KENORA, Ont (CP) - Residents of this northwestern Ontario town breathed a collective sigh of relief Sunday following a breakthrough in the month-long armed Indian occupation of Ani-cinabe Park The militants surrendered their arms in a gesture of good faith to try and reach a settlement and police withdrew to positions a half mile from the park area Both sides agreed to a 10-day negotiation period during which the Indians will continue to have control of the park There were no early indications.however, of an early resumption of negotiations and pi ogress in early stages of the talks was expected to be slow The latest developments followed the arrival in Kenora of Ontario deputy attorney-general Frank Callahan and American Indian Movement (AIM) leader Dennis Banks Mr Banks, highly respected by militants here, was invited by provincial officials to mediate as a last-ditch effort to avoid using force to oust the Ojibway Warriors Society from the 14-acre park they claim is theirs by legal and historic rights The surrendering of their arms to neutral custody appeared, however, to be purely symbolic.There was no sign of the high-powered and semi-automatic weapons much in evidence during the ^coupatiur., which began July 22 Part of the agreement to get substantive negotiations underway included the appointment of 12 Indian negotiators.Those designated are being allowed free movement to and from the park with no fear of arrest A check with police indicates they have instructions not to arrest any of the Indians from the park during the 10-day truce.The 12 all are on a list of 27 militants police consider ringleaders.Some of them wasted no time taking advantage of their freedom, and only hours after the agreement they could be seen enjoying their first legal walk through downtown Kenora in almost a month Louis Cameron, leader of the militant warriors society, in- sisted the laying down of the arms should not be construed as a surrender “To believe this would be disastrous,” he said in a brief statement after handing over the weapons in the presence of Mr Callahan and Kenora mayor Jim Davidson The mayor, looking weary but relieved, said when the park situation was finally resolved, there still would have to be a lot of work performed for Indians.“This is a symptom of a con- dition that should be changed, and I won t be happy until some of the conditions are changed that brought on the demonstrations such as we have had ’ The militants say the municipally-operated camping facility, located on the outskirts of this resort town of 11.000.was illegally sold to Kenora by the Indian Aftan s department in 1959 For three previous decades, the land was used by Indians as a

somebody similar who may have some reason to do something like that,' said Sgt Dwight Stewart of the Los Angeles police departments criminal conspiracy division.“Most of the calls are on voice recognition after listening to a tape from the man on the news.” ACTION POSTPONED A calm-sounding man identifying himself as Isaac Rasim told the Los Angeles Herald Examiner in a telephone call Saturday that “we have postponed our activities pending whatever will happen next.” “Sunday is off Nothing will happen ” Rasim is the self-proclaimed leader of Aliens of America, a group he says is responsible for the Aug 6 bombing at the Los Angeles Airport and the planting of a 25-pound bomb in a downtown bus depot locker Friday night Three persons were killed in the airport bombing, but police were warned by a caller of the bus depot bomb which they found before it exploded Easim vowed to “write our name in blood” and said “A” was for airport and “L” was for locker and life The letter “I” presumably was due for the third explosion In three tapes delivered to radio stations.Rasim has said his group would explode more bombs, including on Capitol Hill in Washington, unless all immigration laws are repealed, and unless two retired Los Angeles policemen are arrested for murder in the 1970 mistake slayings of two Mexican nationals Rasim's nationality so far has escaped detection Language experts in Washington who have studied the tapes believe Rasim’s accent is Hungarian.Estonian or Lithuanian Authorities said an explosion which destroyed a warehouse and burned

capital virtually surrounded.Greek-Cypriots who had been returning to the city began a new exodus to the countryside In Washington.United States Defence Secretary James Schlesinger said Turkey “has

whose decision on a vice-president has been the main topic of Washington conversation since he took office, told reporters Sunday he will make a selection on the post Tuesday “I'm thinking about it very seriously.” Ford told reporters Sunday “We re getting very close.” Former New York governor Nelson Rockefeller and Republi can national chairman George Bush are considered the most likely candidates for the job In Chicago, the president will speak to the Veterans of Foreign Wars and is expected to reaffirm his belief in a strong defence posture for the United States He plans to return to Washington immediately after the speech to continue the work of moulding his new administration The White House reaffirmed Saturday that Rockefeller is still under consideration for the vice-presidency after it said that right-wing extremists had attempted to smear him by linking him with an alleged plot to have thugs disrupt the 1972 Democratic convention which chose Senator George McGovern as presidential candidate Presidential spokesman Jerald terHorst said the Watergate special prosecutors office investigated a report by a tipster that evidence on the alleged link was contained in papers belonging to Watergate burglar E Howard Hunt He said investigators opened a safe-deposit box where the papers were supposed to be hidden, but found nothing President Ford regards the inaccurate information as “a deplorable example of the lengths to which certain persons will go to discredit Mr Rockefeller and thereby remove him from consideration.Horst told reporters workers A spokesman for the Montreal Urban Community Transit Commission (MUCTC) said however that bus service could not be guaranteed beyond Friday All I can say is that we re going to do everything possible to get as many buses as we can on the road,” said a spokesman for the Montreal Urban Community Transit Commission (MUCTC) Lawrence Hanigan.commission chairman, said he could only guarantee service until Friday Meanwhile, the subway remains closed for safety reasons because of the walkout by 1.600 members of the Montreal Transport Union Supervisory personnel were replacing the workers who normally repair city buses, all taken off city streets Saturday and Sunday to catch up on the backlog of repairs REPAIRS NEEDED A spokesman for the transport union said 600 transit commission buses were out of service because of major breakdowns The commission has about l,-800 buses, of which 1.200 are needed to cope with summer rush-hour demands “A lot of those buses are good for nothing but the scrap heap and the MUCTC is going to lose about 1(H) a day.' the spokesman said The union has called a meeting today and plans to demonstrate in front of the courthouse where 71 members face contempt of court charges for defying a Quebec Superior Court injunction issued Aug 7 ordering the men to return to work immediately.Today s group is the first of 158 workers scheduled to face contempt of court charges Following the demonstration, another rally is planned with other unions affiliated to the Confederation of National Trade Unions SUSPENSIONS PROTESTED The workers walked off the job almost two weeks ago protesting the suspension of 73 workers who had refused to work two statutory holidays this summer and to press for cost-of-living wage increases Mr Hanigan has refused to open negotiations on the transport union's contract, which does not expire until July.1975 The men currently earn between $3.50 and $5 50 an hour Since their walkout and the immediate shutdown of the subway system, Montrealers have been forced to take overcrowded buses or find alternate means of transportation About a million people normally use the transit system daily Sunday, when there was no public transportation.Man and His World, on the Expo ’67 site, reported one of the busiest days of the season lage of Pyroi.about 10 miles southeast of Nicosia, and were fighting for Dhenia.7Mi miles west of

Bulent Ecevit said the invasion force will take all necessary measures to ensure the safety of Turkish-Cy-priots” in areas not controlled by the Turkish troops Limassol was one such place, and Greek-Cypriot troops there said they are holding 2.000 Tur-kish-Cypnot men prisoners in a school Later a spokesman said they are being held “for their stand in time the necessity of attending a peace

taken Toronto transit strike enters second week TORONTO (CP) — Metropolitan Toronto enters the second week of its transit strike today with negotiations still proceeding slowly between the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) and the amalgamated Transit Union.Since talks resumed between the two sides a week ago.negotiators have been attempting to reach agreement on relatively minor issues contained in the union’s original 148 demands There has been some discussion of more contentious item-wages, split shifts and pensions—but intensive negotia tion on these subjects has not begun The two sides negotiated through the weekend under provincial mediator J I) Speran-zini.but the pace of progress remained slow MAKE CONCESSIONS Mr Speranzini said in an interview Sunday he is hopeful the two sides will begin intensive negotiations on major issues “in a few days,” and added that both sides have begun to make concessions Mr Speranzini said Friday and Saturday was spent on issues relating to the special problems of 300 Gray Coach Lines drivers who also are on strike The bus company is owned by the transit commission Also close to a settlement are the issues of job classification, disciplinary procedures, and drivers' assignments to bus.subway and street car runs, he said Leonard Moynehan.president of division 113 of the union said in an interview Sunday it is likely the big issues in the strike will be before the bargaining teams by Tuesday and that if any break occurs in the dispute it will probably be then The union president, representing the 5,700 TTC drivers engaged in Toronto’s first public transit strike in 22 years, was optimistic about the talks and said they were going well Neither Metro Council nor the provincial government have yet shown any inclination to inter vene directly in the dispute But if talks do break off.government might be called in to order an end to the strike in the public interest The Canadian National h xhi bition (CNF) and the new Met ropolitan Zoo.both of which opened last week, were two areas where effects of the week-long strike were clearly visible Attendance at the CNE Sunday was down by 11.000 from last year's Sunday figure of 189.000.Downtown businessmen began complaining at the week's end that they had suffered a sub stantial loss of business Some stores in the Toronto core reported a 30-to-50 per cent drop in business during the strike The union is asking for a 40-per-cent increase over the present average of $5 an hour drivers earn for a 40-hour week The commission has offered 19 per cent and given 23 per cent as the ceiling Union members will be receiving their full salaries this week in payment for time worked before the strike Next week should the strike still be on.they will receive strike pay of $50 a

King John opened at the Stratford Festival July 23.actor Nich olas Pennell had his first night off in almost 10 weeks The tall, blonde broad-chested actor has a part in the other three plays occupying the Festival Theatre stage this season, including the leading role in Pericles, which was the mid-season production introduced last summer He also plays Berowne in the new Jean Gascon production of Love's Labor's Lost, which opened in June and the character part of Diafoirus in Moliere s The Imaginary Invalid.which stars William Hutt Pennell.35 and single, is a product of Kngland s Royal academy of Dramatic Art He now is in his third season at Stratford and intends to make Canada his home But what he will be doing next season remains unsettled until Robin Phillips, the new artistic director of the festival, decides on his program of plays and cast ENJOYS V ARIETY Playing six nights and two matinees a week is not as taxing as one would think Pennell said in an interview after his first night off That is because the three roles he has been plaving are so widely different and offer relief in variety In Pericles, he is the young Greek adventurer who loses wife and daughter, and his mind, until they are happily restored to him before the final curtain In the Moliere work, he is a pasty-faced pock-marked young medical student In Love’s Labor’s Lost he plas one of the young lovers, Berowne.and in the romantic Byron setting given the work by director Michael Bawtree.Pennell said he found his favorite role this season Pennell revealed himself in the interview as being something of a romantic himself He was bom in Devon but grew up in the Mendip Hills nar Bath.England Before he came to Canada, rented an apartment for a year in Bath, the city made famous by Beau Nash PLAYED

still treasures, though he also says he wants more than any thing else in the world to become a Canadian citizen Pennell is perhaps best remembered for his role as Michael Mont Fleurs husband in the BBC-TV senes The Forsyte Saga Robin Phillips also played in that series as Wilfred Desert And both also played in the movie version of David Copperfield Phillips as David While The Forsyte Saga enjoyed a long run on international television screens.Pennell said it started off as a small series on the BBC's second network A 50-minute segment of it was recorded every two weeks Its success, he said, lay simply in the fact that it was “high-class soap opera The episodes followed closely the books bv John Galsworthy TOURED AUSTRALIA The CBC’s attempts to make a popular hit out of its Jalna series might have been more successful if it had simply followed the chronology of the books by Mazo de la Roche, he said Playing Diafoirus in The Imaginary Invalid took Pennell to Australia last winter with the touring Stratford company that gamed great acclaim there The tour was such a success.he said, because of the close, friendly relations among the company It was his first trip half-way around the world and thus an adventure He found audiences in Australia attentive and appreciative.though perhaps not as demonstrative in their applause as in Canada roles in Shakespeare's come roles in hakespeare’s comedies.over the historical plays or tragedies.There is more opportunity for interplay among the actors in a play like Love's Labor’s Lost than in Pericles In his three years at Stratford Pennell also played Orlando in As You Like It.Te-baldeo in Lorenzaccio, Young Marlow in She Stoops to Conquer.and Hortensio in The Taming of the Shrew Before coming to Canada he acted with

medieval towns are your dish head for Germany s Romantic Road where there is a series of such towns between Frankfurt and Munich But don t gobble up too many too quickly Plan to spend at least three days in Rothenburg ob der Tauber for it’s the most romantic of them all.and it's small enough to walk everywhere Wuerzburg is the first of the towns en route from a Frank furt landing via Air Canada or Lufthansa But to create a reallv quick romantic mood take a detour first to a renaissance chateau Turn off the autobahn at Mespelbrunn and follow the schloss (castle) sign The castle is a gem with a lake-like moat Some scenes from Sound of Music were filmed here Wuerzburg population 120 -000—is more than 3.000 years old The Celts had a secret place on the hill where later the Prince-Bishops built their fortress-castle of Manenberg In 1525 the peasants attacked it but foundered in the moat It was captured in the religious war and Napoleon took it three times But there it still stands sufficiently grim and medieval for any romantic heart BRIDGE HAS STATUES Down below, a bridge with religious statues crosses the river, reminiscent of the stat-ued bridge in Prague The cathedral has romance.too The original one was dedicated m ?K8 bv ( harle magne The present one is the second largest in Germany with standing room for 7 000 Nearby is the old rathaus «town halh with a 1706-erected fountain in the square in front The Ratsbierstube is an excellent place to eat Just along the street in a delightful rococo building is the tourist office.But the real romance of Wuerzburg is its residenz The Prince-Bishops lived in the fortress until early in the 18th century when a modest castle was built down in the town But that didn t satisfy a new Prince-Bishop and in 1710 he ordered a new grand residence The palace took 25 years to build There's a fantastic staircase that divides with a balcony effect.The ceiling, painted in 1750.is the largest no-support ceiling in the world It represents the four continents (Australia is not there) and took the artist Tiepolo l12 years.Next on the Romantic Road comes Rothenburg ob der Tauber meaning it is on a hill above the Tauber River It has everything—old fortified tower walls on which you can walk part way: a town square right out of medieval times, with a performing mechanical clock 1572-built Renaissance town hall with a 1250-erected Gothic tower and the master builder s house with two rows of female fig- ures on the facade the seven virtues and the seven voices St James church has hand-painted windows and an upstairs altar of the Holy Supper carved in one piece of linden wood, with only Judas standing separate VIEW PANORAMIC You can hire a carnage and horses and drive along the valley for a panoramic view of the battlements and towers There s a puppet show nightly during the summer and Hans Sachs medieval plays are performed in the town hall The pantomime in both the puppet and plays is so good you can follow the plots plots Nuremberg isn’t really on the Romantic Road itself so detour there only if you have time for another two or three full days.Next on the Romantic Road is Dinkelbulh and Nordlmger, both good for a couple of hours sightseeing or an overnight break Finally there’s Augsburg — more austere than the others but it does have several interesting buildings and old city fountains with statues One of the romantic places is the mirrored ballroom in the Schaezler palace where Marie Antoinette danced a night away on her trip from Vienna to marry Louis of France Augsburg also has the first social settlement and it's still in use It was started by a wealthy merchant.Jacob Fugger.in the 16th century Derby Mrs Donald Gage of Newport accompanied by her parents Mr and Mrs Bernie Wheeler of

‘Front Page’ is for#@&% real JACK LEMMON AND WALTER reprint of “The F ront Page.” MATTHAU don't mince expletives in the latest By Dick Kleiner HOLLYWOOD - (NEA> -For the third time, Hollywood is making a movie based on the great Ben Hecht-Charles MacArthur newspaper comedy, "The Front Page.” This one will bo different.To begin with, for the first time the play’s curtain line — "The sonofabitch stole my watch” — will be used.LA L.Diamond, who wrote the screenplay with director Billy Wilder, explains why it was never used before "In the ’31 version, with Pat O'Brien and Adolphe Men-jou,” he says, "it couldn’t be used — couldn't say the words then Thev obscured it with the sound of a typewriter."The 40 version, with Carv Cirant and Ros Russell, didn't use it because with the change to a boy-girl thing it didn't apply " (That 40 version was called "His Girl Friday”) But the ’74 version, with Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau, uses it.It is permissible.in today’s culture Izzy Diamond says the cinema today is freer than the stage was in 1928.when the play came out And they are.therefore, using language that even Hecht and MacArthur couldn't use "They had to use euphem- isms.‘ Diamond says.They said ‘horses bustle.' for example.instead of ‘horse’s ass Wilder is 67 now and still dashes about the set like a nervous fox terrier He has his sweater tied around his neck, his hat perched on the back of his head and he chews gum like mad Between his gum chewing and his Austrian accent, it’s hard for an outsider to understand him "It’s all right,” says Vincent

called Wednesday on police, hospitals, courts and legislators to stop viewing the rape victim as the criminal Rape, the most degrading and humiliating of all crimes, is only the beginning “The victim is then often persecuted by police who do not believe her.doctors who are anything but sensitive or professional.lawyers who put her sex life on trial, and legislators who make laws based on the myth that all women want to be raped.'' a spokeswoman for the anti-rape coalition said Rape is the rapist's crime, not the victim's The sooner all women understand that, and all men believe it.the sooner we ll be able to wipe rapists off the face of the earth.' said Scottie Welch, co-ordinator of the National Organization for Women's Rape Prevention Committee DEFENCE DISPLAYED A demonstration of how to attack the attacker was given and repeated at the press conference at a police centre here A petite policewoman from the sex crimes analysis unit demonstrated simple attacks for use on a would-be rapist-gouging eyes or throat, kneeing groin punching stomach, kicking shins and grinding heel into instep like putting out a cigarette ' Some 10 women who had gathered to watch cheered vengefully and groaned One good punch may help save you.but never use hand-to-hand combat unless you are a master or mistress at judo or karate.Lieut Mary Keefe, commanding officer of the sex crimes analysis unit warned If the rapist is provoked he may become even more violent, she said Your best defences are to scream and run Lieut Keefe also stressed that a woman's mind may be the best self-defence weapon by being aware of potentially dangerous areas and situations and by not blowing your cool, but sizing up your best chances of saving yourself V ICTIM WIDESPREAD A policewoman said victims assisted by police ranged from 18 months to 87 years of age Sally McGee, of the Women s Political C aucus, demanded that legislators enact rape-law reforms The proposals would end requirements for corroboration-as New York did last March—and prohibit testimony on the victim’s sex life, as California did a few months ago If politicians do not show concern about the rape issue we will not keep them in office We are the majority We are 52 per cent of the electoral.LENNOXVILLE DISTRICT SCHOOL BOARD PUBLIC NOTICE A regular meeting of the Council of Commissioners of the Lennoxville District

Premier Bourassa's family At Bromptonville.Mr Levesque urged his audience to make a miracle and send a ninth member to oppose the Liberals in the national assembly CHARGE NEPOTISM Earlier in the campaign, the Parti Québécois attacked Mr Boutin for alleged patronage and nepotism Mr Bachand had said numerous friends and relatives of Mr Boutin benefitted financially when he became the riding s Liberal association chairman on his election to the national assembly Oct.29.1973 Mr Boutin had resigned his seat during a parliamentary in vestigation into charges he acted as crown prosecutor after his election The Legislature Act states that no person may be eligible to sit in the assembly or to vote there while holding a paid temporary or permanent government position Mr Boutin has since stated that his signature as crown prosecutor may have appeared on cases which came to court after his election because of a computer failure He said all the cases he was involved with as crown prosecutor were filed by computer The breakdown delayed these cases, he said Following his resignation, a Liberal nomination meeting unanimously chose Mr Boutin to seek re-election, who besides Mr

OTTAWA (CP) — Alberta MP Jack Horner says he and his supporters will seek a leadership candidate so the Progressive Conservative party is not faced with choosing between two “socialist Conservatives'' at the next leadership convention Mr Homer, who describes himself as right of centre, told panelists on the CTV program Question Period that he will organize a group of like-minded people to look for a leader The program was taped Friday for screening Sunday “1 think it would be dreadful for the Conservative party and for Canada if the leadership race in the Conservative party went down to the wire and we ended up with two socialist Con- servatives and guys like me having no choice at all," he said.The controversial MP for Crowfoot last week sought an early leadership convention but the party caucus supported Conservative Leader Robert Stanfield's proposal to remain as leader for up to two years Mr Homer indicated he might leave the party but was later convinced by friends to stay on Mr Homer said members of the group he will form will not be drawn from caucus They will come from all parts of Canada NAMES SOCIALISTS’ Asked to name socialist Conservatives.Mr Homer men tioned MPs Flora MacDonald (PC—Kingston and the Islands» and Joseph Clark (PC—Rocky Mountain).Mr Homer said the prices and incomes controls prograrr advocated by Mr.Stanfield in the July 8 federal election campaign was not a true Conservative policy.He had fought against it in the parliamentary caucus for months The party had missed a great opportunity in the last campaign by not urging that the Quebec language bill be tested in the Supreme Court of Canada The bill, since approved by the Quebec national assembly, is bad for both French-and English-speaking Canadians in the province.Mr Homer said with- out elaborating While Mr Stanfield had the right to reject former mayor Leonard Jones of Moncton.N B .as a Conservative candidate, it was possible he represented a wide group of people in his opposition to the way the Official Languages Act was applied, the MP said Mr Jones was elected to Parliament July 8 as an independent MP for Moncton Mr Horner said it is wrong for a party to reject a “wide constituency of thought He said he would not ask Mr Stanfield to invite Mr Jones into the Conservative caucus but it is a matter a new leader must consider Old Orchard Beach is “Little Quebec”

Advertising that "we speak French is superfluous in this southern Maine coastal resort area During the last two weeks in July and the first two weeks in August.English is a minor language Known as "Little Quebec.Old Orchard Beach is the summer playground for French-speaking Canadians The motels that blanket the seven-mile long beach show the French influence with names such as Beau Rivage.Alouette.Biarritz.Le Bon and Kebec This is the only resort of its kind in that such a large percentage of our visitors are from Canada." said Dave Despres.executive director of the Old Orchard Beach Chamber of Commerce Andre Normandin of Granby.Quebec, is typical of the many Canadian tourists here “1 come to Old Orchard because it is the closest beach on the ocean." Normandin said “It’s only 200 miles from my home to here It is the only place I can go for a short vacation ' FIVE HOURS DRIVE Old Orchard Beach is a two-hour drive from Boston, five hours from Montreal and six hours from Quebec City It is a quiet community of only 5.400 during the winter The main attraction is the beach, considered by many as one of the best on the Eastern seaboard Named for apple orchards that once dotted the area.Despres said the town now is "100 per cent tourist oriented there's no other business in town Despres is a native of Ashland in northern Maine Although of French-Canadian heritage, he learned his French at American University in Washington.D C The French-Canadian influx into the area is also helped by the nearby twin cities of Biddeford and Saco, both proud of their French heritage and with many family ties to Quebec KNOWN AS CONEY ISLAND Unlike most Maine coastal communities which are depicted in paintings showing a rugged, rock-bound life.Old Orchard has been called the “Coney Island of Maine " The main beach sports a string of arcades and amusement attractions At one time the dance hall at the end of the Old Orchard pier was considered the in-spot for the finest oceanside dancing north of Boston However, old age and a series of fires have closed the dance hall and reduced the pier to a row of penny-arcades and cotton candy stands

Chicago’s embattled Mayor Richard Daley, his bossdom shaken, his power slipping, his health failing, summoned enough political strength last week for a “Last Hurrah.” From his cigar-polluted lair in city hall, he reached all the way to Washington and killed the land-use bill which would have brought order to the chaotic, wasteful development of the nation’s dwindling land resources.Daley sabotaged the bill for reasons that, quite naturally, riled the last of the big-city bosses.The bill left him no power to hand out lucrative land development contracts to his favorite contractors.Instead, most land decisions would have devolved upon the governor.In Illinois, the governor happens to be an ambitious, anti-machine Democrat.Daniel Walker, who has dared to defy Daley Any legislation that would allow Walker to call the shots on land development was more than Daley could abide So the old political war lord cracked the whip on Chicago’s Democratic congressmen, all liberals, who normally would have voted with their fellow liberals for national standards to assure orderly land development.Instead, they took their orders from Daley whose political Machine turns out the voters for them on election day The four Chicago votes against the land use bill provided the margin which defeated the measure, 211-204 We have spoken to the congressmen from Chicago who solemnly deny that Daley influenced their votes.As Rep Morgan Murphy, D-Ill., explained it, the Chicago delegation felt their city was “so far ahead’’ of the rest of the nation in land-use planning that the hill would have had a harmful effect But sources close to the delegation say that Daley sent them their voting instructions One messenger, apparently, was his own land development expert.Lou Hill, who pointedly reminded some members of the Pi Jack Anderson’s o.y Washington * delegation of the contractors’ political clout.The Chicago mayor joined forces with President Nixon to defeat land-use standards.Both men are fighting for political survival, with aides under indictment and prosecutors pressing them at every turn The President withdrew his earlier support for the land-use bill under pressure from conservatives whose votes he is counting upon to save himself from impeachment The conservatives fear the bill might trespass upon the rights of private property owners Ervin’s Ghost Writer: Senator Ervin, D-N.C.the hero of Watergate, has permitted a business lobbyist to help draft his views against the proposed Consumer Protection Agency.Richard Leighton, a lobbyist for the Grocery' Manufacturers of America, wrote part of the minority report on the legislation In Ervin’s name, Leighton warned that the bill would “create a Caesar within the federal bureaucracy.” The lobbyist embarrassingly misspelled Ervin’s name which was listed as “Erwin” in the signature at the bottom of the minority report The proposed consumer agency would represent consumers inside the federal policy councils - at rate hearings, for example, before the Federal Power Commission or drug hearings before the Food and Drug Administration The legislation, sponsored by Sen.Charles Percy, R 111 .has already passed the House, hut faces a filibuster in the Senate Two of the Senate’s most long-winded orators, the avuncular Ervin and Sen James Allen.D-Ala , are expected to try to talk the bill to death.The bill came out of the Senate Government Operations Committee, whose chief counsel.Bob Smith, admitted that lobbyist Leighton wrote part of the minority report.Speaking for Ervin, Smith claimed that the senator opposed the legislation not because he is anti-consumer but because he is against government intervention.Smith suggested that we ask consumer crusader Ralph Nader whether he wrote part of the majority report in favor of the Consumer Protection Agency.Speakinc fyr Wader.Joan Claybrook said she had reviewed the majority report before it went to press but that the Nader people wrote no part of it.Nuclear Threat: A grim, secret intelligence analysis warns that India’s nuclear explosion and the Amencan-Egyptian nuclear agreement will lead to uncontrolled nuclear arms development The report claims that several small nations have already taken the first, secret steps toward developing nuclear arms.The analysis predicts that Egypt.Iran, Israel, Japan.Rumania.Sweden and West Germany will wind up eventually with their own nuclear arsensals.Only a severe United Nations crackdown, the report suggests, might halt the proliferation of nuclear weapons.The time to act was after India exploded its atomic bomb Instead, the United States followed up by offering nuclear aid to Egypt Although the aid is supposed to be restricted to peaceful purposes, plutonium for bombs can be obtained by reprocessing used uranium from peaceful nuclear reactors The spread of nuclear power in creases the possibility that an irresponsible leader may get his hands on nuclear weapons Libya's strong man.Muammar el-Qadaffi.for exam pie, has supplied Soviet-made, shoulder-fired missiles to terrorists.A future Qadaffi might be able to furnish terrorists with nuclear bombs By Tom Tiede Tom Tiede Evil behind the cloak of patriotism WASHINGTON - (NEA> - America’s social and legal codes have long and rightfully held a special affection Tor the repentant sinner but there is something curiously excessive about the sympathies now being expressed for some of the convicted White House felons.Perhaps it’s because the crooks - Magruder, Colson.Dean and on dow n the weary list — have cloaked their vices with a motive of ” pair lot ismr’ which confuses the public Then, too, it’s true that many of them are youngish family men and educated and all the other good citizenship things which suggest they can’t be deeply, just superficially, bad Whatever the reason, reasonable men gag a bit at the spectacle of clergymen lionizing Charles Colson because he has switched allegiance from one deity to another, or fan clubs forming for Jeb Magruder because his book of confession includes correct sentence structure.One man particularly offended over the irony is George Bush, chairman of the Republican National Committee, who believes angrily that the White House gangsters are “cruds" who “never gave a damn for party or country” and thus deserve only a modicum of pity.Spending long hours in his beleaguered office these days, in rumpled apparel best described as hard-work clothes, Bush has good reason to be embittered about Magruder, et al.The bums not only despoiled the Presidency and the nation but the Grand Old Party as well.Bush reminds with emphasis that the Senate Watergate committee cleared the Republican party of complicity but the sigh in his voice gives away his pragmatic political concern He’s damn worried.From here on the Republicans are rid of Richard Nixon (the 1976 ticket will be only the second since 1952 without him), but his legacy, including the 41 court convictions of his followers, lingers on repulsively.Naturally, Bush can’t blame the legacy on Nixon, not yet, but he does not hide his bitterness for the henchmen: “Magruder is the one who really bothers me.I remember shortly after 1 took this job (GOP chairman).1 w as attending a party with my wife and we were sitting close to Magruder.Now this was about February of 1973 and he was still clean.He went on and on about his own innocence and how the press was only using him to get to the President.My wife was very impressed.A few weeks later, of course, the truth about him came out.Now, what gets me is how he could lie to us right up to the last minute.How he could try actually to drag us into the whole mess?I didn’t like it a damn bit then and I don’t now." What Bush is saying is that Magruder, currently serving up to 10 months in prison for obstructing justice, was not simply a misled patriot with a superficial streak of dishonesty.He was a thoroughly corrupt and contemptible thug who defrauded the whole of the United States.Far from being voluntarily repentant, his fraud continued (at the risk of innocent friends) until the iig was up.“He is not entitled to public sympathy,” says Bush, “he was simply a liar and a cheat.” The same goes for many others of the White House gangsters.Empathy may be natural in the case of some of the lowlies, such as the Cuban Plumbers, for they may have lacked the intellect to resist.But those next to the President knew exactly what they were doing and at the time, were honored at being chosen for misdemeanor activity.Sympathy?Says Bush: "People should remember when Dean talks contemptuously about the Enemies List’ that he, in fact, was one of the people who gleefully drew' up the list." This is not to say Dean, or Magruder, should be stoned in the street.Or forever shunned as moral lepers.But prudence dictates caution in accepting them as reborn.Even Charles Colson s religious re-awakening might well be taken with a George Bush quote: “It’s good for him to discover truth.I only wish he’d done it sooner/’ (NEWSPAPER ENTERPRISE ASSN ) Ray Cromley Political profit at taxpayer expense By Ray Cromley (First of Two Related Columns) WASHINGTON — (NEA) — Billions in public money and favors are channeled to individuals, groups and firms for political purposes.The loss to the taxpayer may be as great as the loss through theft by organized crime.The corruption of the democratic system is even greater — a perversion of law and equal treatment - meaning, as it does, favor to special groups, and funds not used as intended by law.Significantly, the House Judiciary Committee did not seriously consider charging President Nixon with illegally diverting millions of government dollars for such political purposes.Yet that committee has in its files documentary evidence of White House directed diversion on a major scale.This reporter has a copy of one of these file documents.In it, Fred Malek, now Mr.Nixon’s deputy director of the Office of Management and the Budget, estimated the loose change available for diversion to target groups to help secure support for the President’s re-election to be $1.4 billion.The time available (seven months) and the need for secrecy would, Malek calculated, make possible the effective “redirection” of only a small fraction of that amount in the 1972 campaign.The committee did not recommend impeachment on these grounds.The reason is obvious; everyone does it.It is no secret that more often than not big military and other government spending has gone to the areas represented by men high on key committees in Congress.The money favors individuals and groups who could sway voters in the re-election of these senators and representatives.When consciously done for political purposes, this channeling or diversion of funds and favors is clearly illegal.But the pot does not dare call the kettle black, even when documentary evidence exists.The material at hand is to the point, a memorandum for H R Haldeman from Fred Malek, on “Departmental Responsiveness’’ dated March 17, 1972 on White House stationery The attached document, marked “extremely sensitive’ is titled “Increasing the Responsiveness of the Execu-tive Branch Five copies were made.The Malek plan proposed organizing each executive department for this systematic diversion of funds into programs where they would be most effective politically and providing for close White House monitoring bv Malek to make certain all such divisions met their goals.Each departmental contact, usually aa.undersecretary Malek wrote, would be expected to establish controls to ensure the desired action was taken.Malek proposed he and his staff would coordinate the departmental plans in this grantsmanship” operation, along with Casper (Cap) Weinberger, then on the White House staff and now secretary of Health.Education and Welfare They would ensure that each department effectively fulfilled its quota.As a first step.Malek went on.the departments should be given clear guidelines covering political priorities These would be spelled out in terms of key states and major voting bloc groups on which departmental action could have an im pact Malek listed both positive and negative decisions to be covered under this program In the first group were grants, contracts loans, subsidies, procurement and construction projects The negative actions were taking legal or regulatory action against a group or government body, major cut backs in programs and relocation of departmental operations.K THK SHERBROOKE RETORD -
