offices across Canada Last remaining Americans pulled out of besieged Saigon WASHINGTON (AP) — A helicopter evacuation was ordered by President Ford early Tuesday to bring out the last remaining ^ Americans from besieged * Saigon.Government officials said the evacuation of 800 to 900 Americans began at 3:30 a m.EDT and was to take about four hours Pentagon spokesman Joseph Laitin said no major hitches were reported “There was some ground fire, but no damage” to the helicopters or the Americans aboard them as they left the South Vietnamese capital.Laitin said In a formal statement, Laitin said the military situation around Saigon “has deteriorated to such an extent” that the evacuation has become necessary to insure the Americans’ safetv About 70 helicopters were deployed to bring evacuees to five aircraft carriers and 40 U S.Navy ships standing off South Vietnam MARINES CALLED IN Laitin said the first helicopters to reach Saigon carried an undetermined number of armed Marines to protect the evacuation.The first helicopter, bearing the operation’s commander, Brig -Gen.Richard Carey, drew some fire, but Laitin said “nobody can say whether the helicopter was hit or not.” Fighter planes from the carriers provided air cover during the operation The helicopters were used after Communist rockets and artillery closed Saigon’s Tan Son Nhut airport to C-130 transport planes One of the planes had been hit on the ground and destroyed before the evacuation began That incident led to the termination of the airlift by U S.Air Force transport planes About 40,000 South Vietnamese citizens and 7,000 Americans had been flown out of the country.CBC in Quebec Hits expansion of English media QUEBEC (CP) — Communications Minister Jean-Paul L’Allier said Monday that the CBC’s criteria for expansion in the province “carries grave dangers and seems more like a disguised bilingualism plan.” Mr.L’Allier said the CBC plans to use bilingual persons to justify the installation of English-language television and ra dio facilities even where they are not justifiable by population standards “If this is in fact the case, this would be a political decision aimed at covering the territory of Quebec with English-language stations, even where there is no need for them ” Addressing the Canadian Association of Broadcasters, the minister said the CBC plans to count each bilingual person 14 times in determining the population of a community.t| Since 33 per cent of French-speaking persons are bilingual, this method effectively doubles Quebec’s English-speaking population, he said Mr L’Allier said the “abusive use of the bilingualism factor” would result in greater priority being given to projects serving the English-speaking population.Basing his analysis on “official and unofficial’’ information, the minister called on the CBC to make public its evaluation criteri .He said five of 21 English-language television projects and eight of 23 radio projects planned for Quebec “are the result of an obvious expansion policy in spite of the insufficient number of Englishspeaking people or even the lack of them in several municipalities involved ” QUOTES FIGURES The minister also quoted cost figures to show that French-language television projects are expected to cost an average $51,000 each while similar English-language projects will cost $196,000 Seventy-five per cent of the $7 million earmarked for expansion in Quebec province would go to the English network Mr.L’Allier painted a similar picture in radio broadcasting where the average cost of each French-language project is $10, 000 compared with $47,000 for each English-language project.As for television audience, the minister said each French project should reach 4,000 people while each English station should reach 40,000, “of whom 3,000 would be English-speaking.” “It is astonishing to note that a complete radio and television service will be made available to a minority whose number had to be artificially inflated while nothing would be done to make the complete programming of the French network available to the French-speaking population.” Mr.L’Allier said all Quebecers should be able to receive all of the CBC’s national and regional French-language programming.The English-language projects should be suspended until service in French is complete, he said.Legal action planned in longshoremen strike MONTREAL (CP) — Lawyer Phil Cutler said Monday the International Longshoremen’s Association (ILA) will contest the constitutionality of back-to-work legislation passed last week by the federal government.Mr Cutler said an action will be filed in Quebec Superior Court this week Longshoremen defied the legislation by refusing to return to work because of dissatisfaction with a conciliation report.A spokesman for the Mari-times Employers’ Association said it had accepted the report and is leaving further action up to the government The government will take legal action “as soon as we can” against Quebec longshoremen who have not returned to work.Labor Minister John Munro said Monday.He told Heward Grafftey ( PC—Brome-Mississquoi ) that labor and justice department officials are checking to see whether there was disobedience in complying with the back-to-work legislation signed into law Thursday.Only two of the 2,200 longshoremen in Montreal, Quebec City and Trois-Rivières returned to work Monday.Mr.Munro said dispatch orders were sent out Sunday night for the longshoremen.The legislation was based on a conciliation board report that the workers rejected because of dissatisfaction with job-security provisions.It was to have become effective Friday but officials of the Maritime Employers Association agreed to wait until Monday to give the longshoremen time to vote on it.Union officials said last week they would be surprised if the men returned to work.Besides the longshoremen, the legislation also ordered 320 cargo checkers and repairmen back to work.The longshoremen had been on strike for three weeks and the checkers and repairmen for a week Michael Forrestall (PC— Dartmouth-Halifax East) asked if the government had sought a compliance order Mr.Grafftey also asked if consideration is being given to financial assistance for Quebec livestock and poultry producers whose feed grain supplies have been interrupted by the strike.Hostage drama hits i consulate BLIND DRIVER SIMPLE PLEASURE of riding a bicycle was denied to the blind — until engineer Bob Porod ( right i of Chicago developed the “Cricket.” a small device

security guard took 21 persons hostage in the Israeli consulate, killed two persons and wounded at least 33, then surrendered early today after 21 hours.David Protter, 26, a Jew who fought for Israel in the 1973 Arab-Israeli war, said he had a grievance against the Israeli government.He said he wanted to be flown to Israel to talk to Premier Yitzhak Rabin.First police reports said six terrorists had taken over the fifth-floor consulate Monday Protter had threatened to kill all the hostages if officials left it be known he was acting alone Armed with three revolvers, two submachine guns and some hand grenades, Protter hid inside the consulate before dawn Monday.He then locked up staff members as they arrived for work, telling each that he was conducting a security exercise When his Israeli superior, security officer Giora Raviv, objected, Protter shot and killed him ANOTHER MAN KILLED The other man killed was a South African employee.Edwin Malpo Consul-General Arieh Bustan said that when he arrived at 9:50 a m .Protter asked him to accompany him to the vault for the security exercise.There he saw a guard lying on the floor, and Protter trained a revolver and light machine gun on the consul, telling him he was a hostage Commercial Attache Michael Ram said Protter wired the building with 165 pounds of explosives tied to an electronic detonator.He added to his hostages by capturing three children of consulate staff who arrived after attending morning movies Protter later opened fire on lunchtime crowds in the street below and wounded more than 30 persons The police took over the floors above and below the consulate USED VARIOUS VOICES Protter negotiated with the police by hand-held radio and used various voices and accents to give the impression he had a number of accomplices His demands included a helicopter to fly him, his “accomplices” and his hostages to Jan Smuts airport, an El A1 airliner to take them all to Israel, white surgical masks and coats to wear when they left the consulate so the hostages would not be distinguishable, and Sten guns In Jerusalem, Rabin and Defence Minister Shimon Peres gave the South African government a free hand in

normal MONTREAL (CP) — A spokesman for the Montreal local of the Letter Carriers Union of Canada (LCUC) said Monday mail delivery in the area was expected to return to normal today following the imposition of a trusteeship on the local by the union’s national executive in Ottawa The suspension of the local’s president, Guy Morrissette, and his four-man executive and the seizure of financial records and minutes of the 2,500-member unit was ordered by national president Roger Decarie Mr Morrissette was in Western Canada seeking support for a movement to reject terms of a tentative agreement for a new contract which would raise wages by $68 a week over a 30-month contract when the suspension was announced A member of the Montreal local’s stragegy committee said selective strikes in three key financial and business sectors of the city would be stopped and all letter carriers and courriers would report for their shifts today.He said no further action would be taken until Mr Morrissette returned to Montreal early today to meet with his suspended executive.Initial reaction over the suspension among some local activists was one of anger “The national executive was always happy when the guys were in total ignorance,” said union Stewart Jean-Paul Chorest “In Montreal, the guys woke up and now we will not allow the national executive to play with us like marionettes ” The suspension marks the first time in almost 20 years an LCUC local has been placed under trusteeship The last incident occured in Hamilton, Ont., after financial irregularities were discovered there h as TEMPER Meanwhile, a spokesman for the national executive described Mr Morrissette as “a capable guy,” but added he often “gets these temper tantrums and wants to fight the world “We’re not going to be put in the same position as the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) where the local in Montreal calls the shots,” the spokesman said.“Morrissette was telling lies that the cost-of-living clause in the contract was not cumulative It goes to a maximum of 10 cents every quarter for a possible 60 cents over the contract “Our maximum could be $6.74 an hour for a member with three years experience.” In Ottawa, LCUC president Roger Decarie said the Montreal local was “deemed to be in violation of the constitution” when members were asked at a general meeting Friday to vote by show-of-hands on the new contract.Mr Decarie said the constitution called for a vote by secret ballot An internal “trial” before the national executive will be held during the next six weeks and Mr Morrissette can argue his case then, the union leader said Deadline extended QUEBEC (CP) - Quebec motorists have until May 1 to buy their 1975 licence plates, Transport Minister Raymond Mailloux announced Monday Mr Mailloux said in a press release that no further extensions of the deadline will be made following the two-month extension granted after a fire last December destroyed the factory manufacturing the 1975 licence ?plates Failure to comply with the ruling would lead to fines of $10 to $50 and possible suspension of driving permits, he said Goldbloom: Rural towns should not become folklore areas MONTREAL (CP) -Victor Goldbloom, Quebec minister of municipal affairs, said Monday the provincial government frowns upon direct links between the federal government and municipalities “We strongly oppose, in fact we would resent, direct communication between local government —the municipalities—and the federal government,” he told the annual conference of the Municipal Finance Officers Association The Quebec government is particularly concerned, he said, that riiral municipalities, still losing population to urban centres, should not become simply “rural, tourist, folklore areas ” Earlier, Senator Edmund Muskie of Maine told delegates he favors direct intervention by the United States federal government to aid recession-hit state and local authorities in the U S Dr Goldbloom said the Quebec government is responsible for providing grants to local authorities within the province, although it hoped each municipality would be as “self-sufficient as possible ” He asked the conference, at which more than 150 speakers and panel participants will examine aspects of municipal finance, to help establish guidelines and criteria for provincial aid to municipalities

bigger markets in the Middle East But Tej Thind.a vice- president of Magnum Marketing Inc., suggests Canadian companies should concentrate on one particular area of the Middle East instead of trying to grab small amounts of business from each country “With today’s volatile political situations there, if you tried to get into markets in more than one area at a time, you’re sure to be boycotted by the people who think you might be dealing with the enemy M Mr Thind’s company, a marketing consultant firm, has concentrated its efforts in Egypt, where it opened an office under the title of Magnum (Middle East) Inc The company has just completed a transaction for the construction of a $15-million hospital in Cairo The 400-bed.pre fabricated hospital, ordered by the Coptic Orthodox Church, will be designed and manufactured by Canadian companies and shipped in pieces to be assembled in Cairo WORK ON HOTELS “We re now working on two major hotels, involving 1,200 rooms in Cairo,” Mr Thind said in an interview Mr Thind also is hoping a orthcoming trip to Cairo will result in orders for 400 homes and possibly more hospitals Magnum is also hoping to increase its sales of newsprint to Egypt During 1974, Mr Thind said “we shipped 20,000 tons of newsprint all over the world with about 5,000 tons to Egypt ” Most of the supplies came from U S sources, “where prices are much less than those charged in Canada ” Magnum has also been involved in markets in the United Kingdom, Zambia, South American countries and Lagos Although the company traditionally has specialized in sales of pulp and paper, “we are now branching out into industrial chemicals and earth-moving equipment ” Mr Thind agrees with recent statements of Jean Luc Pepin, former federal trade and commerce minister, which criticized Canadian businessmen for laxity in seeking foreign markets Similiar criticisms have come from trade officials of various countries, notably those of Canadians to trade with them

ruling that Chrysler Corp is liable for accident damages if its cars aren’t “crash-worthy” may spell trouble for auto companies, says Chrysler lawyer Charles Taylor.He said Thursday’s decision by the state appeals court opens the car builders to suits by persons injured in car crashes even though Michigan’s no-fault auto accident law precludes most suits by individuals against each other.The court ruled Chrysler must build “crash-worthy” cars and said a suit charging the car company with negligence may be reopened “A builder of any car has a duty to so design and build his product as to eliminate unreasonable risk of foreseeable injury to its occupants as a result of a collision,” the court said in writing new language for Michigan liability law.Previously, state law held that car manufacturers must make products “reasonably suited for the purposes intended.” MUST BE CRASH-WORTHY Now it will be up to juries to decide if the auto-maker built a “crash-worthy” product, not merely a product used in the way it was meant to be used, Taylor said.“We’re going to get caséS of Volkswagens hitting trains at crossings and suits claiming the VWs were not crashproof,” Taylor said.The Appeals Court ordered retrial of a $250,000 suit against Chrysler by Ann and Charles Rutherford.Circuit Court Judge John Kadela dismissed their 1969 suit, stating that under existing Michigan law there was no “implied warranty upon the manufacturer to build a crash-proof car.” However, the Appeals Court said that while there is no duty to build a “crash- proof” auto, there is an obligation to build a “crashworthy” car Mrs Rutherford suffered leg injuries Dec.27, 1968 while riding in the backseat of a 1967 Dodge Dart driven by her husband The car spun on ice and smashed rear-end first into a bridge abutment Her legs were struck by the front seat track assembly, which disengaged and slid backwards, the Appeals Court said Mrs Rutherford suffered the only injury in the mishap and the suit claimed the seat track assembly could disengage on low-speed impact because of negligent design and construction by Chrysler Because the seat was improperly anchored, it became “a flying missile in the car” at relatively low speeds, claimed Barry Waldman, lawyer for the Rutherfords Chrysler has not decide^r it will appeal the decision, Taylor said.Traders expect profits to go up TORONTO (CP) — The president and chief executive of Traders Group Ltd.said Thursday company profits are expected to increase over the remainder of 1975.H E.Dynes told the company’s annual meeting that profits during the first quarter of 1975 showed a “satisfactory improvement” over the similar 1974 period.The company showed a $3.1-million profit in the first quarter or 53 cents a share, compared with $2.6 million or 48 cents a share in the previous quarter.“Steady profit improvement” for the group is expected in the remainder of the year as the impact of rate increases made last year and earlier this year

previous three years.Card Party BURY — A card party sponsored by the Rebekahs of this area was held on Wednesday evening April 16, with a record attendance, when nineteen tables of 500 and several

., approach a loan these days.For a loan, as with anything else, it pays to shop around.Rates do vary from place to place.At the Commerce, though our rates are already competitive, we can even go one better.If you have a Commerce Key Account you get preferred rates on most consumer loans.The fact remains, however, a loan costs money.And you have to repay it.That’s why we’d like to sit down and talk about it with you.It’s part of making sure you don’t get in over your head just because you need the money.If you need the loan for a car, we want to make sure your repayment plan still leaves you money to run it.Talk to one of our over 1600 Commerce managers about the facts behind a Commerce Bankplan loan.The more you know about the in’s and out’s of money, the better you can make use of

off late last week as the provincial government made changes in its plans to enlarge the park The news came from the office of Fish and Game Minister Claude Simard, which said government respected its proposed changes which would save the last deer in a small area to be expropriated Andre Boucher, press secretary for Mr Simard.LENNOXVILLE — When Lloyd Perkins, a teacher at AGRHS, decided to organize a rock and roll band the obvious place to start looking for musicians seemed to be the staff lounge That search ended with the formation of Lightning Lloyd and the Flaming Flamingos The group is composed of six high school teachers and one student and has played extensively in the Townships since its first public performance at Galt on December 16.Peter Kandalaft, one of the vocal members of the group, (no pun intended) accounted for their sudden and wide success when he said that they offer “more than just music, its entertainment.” The audiences that the band attracts with its 50’s and 60’s rock and roll are a very mixed group, in fact all that they share in common is their love of dancing, and style.Recent performances in Richmond, Sawyerville, Waterville, Magog, North Hatley, Lennoxville etc.have seen everyone from the band’s students to Peter’s parents in attendance.Flamingos Are Fun Kristan McKercher only found part of the reason for the Flamingos’ popularity when she said “nostalgia is in.’’ After hearing the band on two separate occasions and watching the always crowded dance floor it became clear that the Flamingos are fun.They have been able to tour the hotels in this area because they provide pure entertainment and enjoyment.Who could resist dancing to music the likes of the Platters and the Beatles?The emphasis on entertainment has led the band stated the land where the deer have settled which was to be developed had been dropped from the expropriation list and the settling of the area taken in by the habitat would be bothered only slightly by the expropnation procedures The plan for the enlargement of the Mount Orford Park began last fall when Orford MNA Georges Vaillancourt and the Ministry of State for Municipal Affairs were approached by the proprietors of Auberge to equip itself with 50’s style outfits and to bring along the “special attraction” that keeps on arriving “direct from Florida”, namely Pat Glashan The band is not interested in moving on to Montreal or in playing music full time.Terry Zahoruyko, a vocalist, explained the band’s feeling towards their new found sideline when he said “we’re not quitting our jobs.” The Flamingos will likely remain strictly a local group although outside shows might be considered Joe McKercher, the bass guitarist, said that the band is “not looking for jobs in Montreal” and his wife Chen bourg to build chalets in back of the present inn Mr Vaillancourt asked for a study to be done on the limits of the deer habitat where the contractors wanted to build more then 100 chalets The proprietors envisioned the construction of an immense center being built in the course of the next few years This construction would, in effect, destroy completely the last natural habitat for the deer in the park and cause certain death Many organizations, local Kristan pointed out that a “lot of people follow us around to places” which guarantees at least a partly friendly audience Lightning Lloyd and the Flaming Flamingos place a strong emphais on vocal harmonies, as their lineup suggests.Lloyd Perkins plays lead guitar, Peter Kandalaft, Terry Zahoruyko, vocals, Bruce Maclver, drums, Andre Losier, Trumpet, Joe McKercher, bass, and Kristan McKercher, vocals.The group’s choice of music is at least partly due to their age.Terry pointed out that the 50’s and 60’s rock and roll is the “music we regional and provincial, took a stand to prevent the destruction and send letters or telegrams asking the immediate intervention by Mr Simard to stop the progressing developments while they were still small Last Tuesday in Quebec, Mr Simard asked for an analysis on the impact the development would have on the deer and their environment An answer came later in the week stating that the construction would have an undesirable influence on the wildlife grew up on ” Coincidental perhaps that this music is also ideal for dancing and is thoroughly enjoyed by all age groups The Flamingos’ future seems to be somewhat up in the air Joe assured me that they would be around until at least next year but no one was signing any contracts The rock and roll business seems to be only a temporary sideline to the group’s regular teaching duties but a summer of music is planned Chances are that on any particular weekend you’ll be able to find Lightning Lloyd and the Flaming Flamingos, if not at the local hotel, then at least nearby GALT GROUP — Lightning Lloyd and the Flaming Flamingos are seen practising in the Alexander Galt Auditorium.Six of the band members are teachers at the school and

livening our summer scene and bringing prestige to the area through the high professional standard attained by Festival Lennoxville BARBARA STEV ENSON Shattered Contract British Prime Minister Harold Wilson’s “social contract” with the unions has taken a bad beating in recent months.Under it, unions were supposed to show some restraint in their wage demands.Few' have, and settlements have been, in the words of Chancellor of the Exchequer Denis Healey, “far in excess of what could be justified.” In his budget speech last week the chancellor went on to warn the nation that unless the unions showed some restraint, the consequences would be rising unemployment, quts in government spending, lower living standards for Britain as a whole, and growing tension throughout society.These are sombre words, particularly coming from a member of the I^abor cabinet whose government draws much of its strength from these self-same unions.But what has been organized labor’s response to the warning?The Scottish Trades Union Congress promised that it would support all unions which seek wage rises outside the social contract.Union leaders In automobile factories said that higher wage claims from their people were inevitable.The general secretary of the railway drivers’ union, which has been demanding a pay increase of 30 per cent, said that his union’s pay claim will now be even higher because of the budget.If the Unions continue to defy the government _ as they show every indication of doing — what alternatives^ has the government left?According to The Sun.published in London, the rational alternative is a statutory pay and prices policy — and this, the unions say, they will not accept.The only other choice, according to the newspaper, is yet another budget incorporating even more painful monetary stringency, which would hurt the poor and add to the number of people now' out of work.And the question arises, if the unions have responded to last week’s budget with defiance, what will they not do to an even more stringent one?WINNIPEG FREE PRESS I Ml MU KHK' M »M RECORD Only English Daily in the Eastern Townships SUBSCRIPTION RATES Published by

domestic problem Marginalidad is officialdom’s euphemism for extreme poverty It means roughly “living on the edge of society,” and officials say it afflicts 40 per cent of Venezuela's 12 million inhabitants After one year in office there are signs that the antipoverty projects of President Carlos Andres Perez are beginning to get under way In Venezuela, as in all South American countries, the symptoms of marginaiidad are the shanty huts which ring every city, spawning social problems from child crime, drug addiction, alcoholism and malnutrition to lack of sewage, running water and electric power An estimated one million people—or 41 per cent of the population of Caracas—live in shanty huts, or “ranchos,” and slums in and around the capital In some cities up to 79 per cent of the population live in ranchos In Maracaibo, capital of western Zulia state which produces the bulk of Venezuela’s oil, 63 per cent of the inhabitants are shanty-dwellers CHILDREN ABANDONED In addition, Venezuela has an estimated two million youths and children abandoned by their parents—most of them in ranchos and slums This is the joint estimate of the Venezuelan Child Council and United Nations Children’s Fund formerly United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund (UNICEF) operating here Pedro Castillo, secretary-general of the child council, said child abandonment springs partly from the “machismo” complex of the South American male “This orients the conduct of many males towards polygamy and the procreation of numerous illegitimate children.” But the wretched conditions in the teeming rancho areas are at the bottom of the problem The man chiefly responsible for waging the government’s campaign against marginalidad is Carlos Acedo Mendoza, sociologist and one-time advertising executive, who is president of Fundacomun, the state-operated “foundation for the development of the community ” One of Perez’s first acts after his inauguration in March, 1974, was to sign a decree marshalling the resources of the state for a “program to put in order the areas occupied by the poor of the nation’s cities ” GIVEN CONTROL It gave Fundacomun overall direction and co-ordination of the anti-poverty activities of six government ministries, seven state institutes and several provincial institutions for community development.Mendoza said this means that for the first time in Venezuela a practical cam paign has been started against marginalidad “There is no charity handout, no philanthropy.It’s a matter of trying to do justice to the rights of every individ- ual in a democratic society.” He expressed concern that extremes of poverty survive in a country where the oil boom has.at least stastically, raised the average annual income from $1,250 to $23,000 within a year Fundacomun and its related agencies still are at the data-gathenng, problem analysing stage The mam information-gathering task is in the hands of community development offices established in every municipal district of Venezuela’s 20 states and two federal territories COMMITTEES SET UP Twin committees have been set up in different parts of the country to oversee the work, concentrating respectively on the physical problems of poverty-such things as housing and sanitation—and the social problems—crime, child care, drunkenness.Eventually they will co-ordinate the actual work and make sure plans are carried out on time.Mendoza said the general plan will be as follows: (T^iemtMociiW LEADERSHIP COM WvmZ'/ WMm LEADERSHIP REGISIRflION Wmm:.T mMmm* ' mg ms** isr*- The plot
