convention When the Creditistes decided last November to hold the leadership race, Mr Roy said the party should spend its energy on organizing riding associations DUPUIS WON He said another leadership convention would only serve to open old wounds created by the party’s disastrous results in the 1973 election and the leadership race that preceded it, won by Y von Dupuis, a former Liberal cabinet minister.When the party elected only two members in the ensuing election, Creditistes loyal to Mr.Samson and Mr Roy disavowed Mr.Dupuis and abolished the post of party leader for two years.OTTAWA (CP) — More than $1 billion of projected spending by a department whose minister has acknowledged that it is a mess comes under Commons scrutiny this week About $1 08 billion of transport department spending for the 1975-76 fiscal year has been chosen by the Conservatives as the debating topic for their opposition days, today and Tuesday.The two-day debate will give opposition MPs a chance to zero in on transportation topics ranging from East Coast ferries to rail and hotel service provided by Canadian National, the government-owned railway.Transport Minister Jean Marchand, who admitted last year his department is in a mess, will be the focus of attention during the debate.Last time his estimates came before the House, Mr Marchand described attacks on his department as racist, but he later apologized for the remark Transport has been a favorite opposition target in recent months with criticism of CN, the state-owned Air Canada and other programs.Mr Marchand has promised a comprehensive transport policy, but it has yet to surface.WILL PASS Despite the two-day debate, the transport spending estimates are in no danger of being scuttled by a Commons firmly in the hands of the majority Liberals A similar debate Friday on treasury board spending produced rhetorical smoke and fire, but the estimates passed without even a recorded vote Wednesday also will be devoted to an opposition-chosen topic, this time to be selected by the New Democrats.No announcement has been made on what the subject will be Inside today Britain facing crisis LONDON (AP) — Prime Minister Harold Wilson said Sunday that Britain is facing “the gravest crisis we’ve faced since 1931, but nothing has happened that in any way reduces the capacity of Britain to overcome those problems " He ruled out the idea of a coalition government as a "prescription for national disaster".Wilson was interviewed on a television program at his own request following a week of intense concern about Britain’s future, amid growing unemployment and 21-per-cent inflation, fed by wage rises averaging almost 30 per cent The pound sterling plunged to its lowest-ever levels on the foreign exchanges, finishing the week at $2 30 in New York Wilson’s Labor government.with a precarious one-seat majority in the House of Commons, has been split wide open over Wilson’s recommendation to vote “Yes" in the June 5
