Eighteen persons were hurt in the blast and six tourists were still in hospital Thursday A married couple from Mexico had severe injuries Six-year-old killed BELFAST (Reuter) — A six-year-old girl was fatally shot Thursday, the second fatality in an apparent new feud between rival branches of the Irish Republican Army (IRA), pitting Roman Catholics against each other Eileen Kelly was shot when a

government falls.Fabiao was due to return from a four-day official visit to West Germany later Thursday and the army high command saiu it would take no action over the arsenal without his consent Storm halts clashes BEIRUT (AP) — A thunderstorm silenced the guns of battling Christians and Moslems here today, and no significant clashes were reported after dawn.Both sides pulled back to consolidate positions captured Thursday.Some government security forces took advantage of the lull and the weather to move between Christian and Moslem territory, causing Premier Rashid Karami to suggest that a ceasefire might take hold A spokesman for the rightwing Christian Phalange party said Christian forces still control the downtown hotel district But staff members at the Phoenicia Hotel said the Phalange withdrew Thursday night, and security forces were patrolling the streets in that area The Phalange also said its men captured half of the Ka-rantina district near the Port of Beirut,

reiirement pension might be called a standard of leaving.-r Li 'A The talks were scheduled to resume today at 1 p m with the hope of ending the strike, now in its nth day Spokesmen for both sides said that only a few of the major issues remained to be resolved Unresolved issues included the use of non-union casual help in the post office, individual work measurement, electronic surveillance of their staffs by postal supervisors, and wages It was a sharp contrast to feelings at noon Thursday when both sides left the talks to meet privately for seven hours before returning to the bargaining table after dinner SAME OPINION At that time, Mr Mackasey told reporters that about 65 issues remained to be initialled “The pace leaves a little to be desired,” he said then “But well let the union dictate the pace ” Mr Parrot echoed this feeling when he said: “It’s getting a little frustrating for us The post office is just not coming back fast enough with answers to our counter proposals.” The union is asking 51 per cent in a 27 month contract over its current 94 56 an hour while the post office is holding to its offer of $1 70 an hour over 30 months The $1 70 increase was suggested in the

flagging support among the membership He was to have returned Thursday night, but did not arrive before the adjournment Government backs down on some wage control measures OTTAWA (CP) - The federal government Thursday backed down on some bitterly-disputed measures in its selected wage and price controls program to give a better break to low-income earners and those depending on investment income The key change outlined by Finance Minister Donald Macdonald to the Commons finance committee was one which will allow anyone to increase his hourly pay to $3 50 without being affected by the guides For example, an employee working 2,000 hours a year at $1.75 an hour can double his income by negotiating a raise to $3 50 hourly and not be subject to the basic 10-per-cent ceiling imposed on wage increases under the federal plan The change was made to counter attacks from the provinces, organized labor, opposition parties and some Liberal MPs that the original $600 maximum was unfair to low-income workers.Mr.Macdonald also said the government is amending the program so dividend reductions will not be required The guides originally said dividend payments during the first 12 i»?5 Red

the anti-inflation program was announced Oct.13 MORE CHANGES Another minor amendment will bring salaried professionals who work for a professional firm, such as junior lawyers, firmly under the guides Questioned after the meeting, Mr Macdonald said the government has approved “five or six more” changes in the federal plan, but they are not as major The hearings opened on a stormy note Thursday David Orlikow (NDP— Winnipeg North) said the New Democrats will oppose the legislation until they see the regulations that accompany i».Until the anti inflation bill is passed, and the guides are spelled out in regulations, the government has no power to impose penalties against violators.Mr Macdonald said the government tried, but failed, to get labor s support He said the government feels it has to proceed anyway.Meanwhile, Ontario T reasurer Darcy McKeough announced Thursday the province will put its civil service and institutions under federal control for two years as part of the

servants, the National Joint Council says Part two was designed to Backs farm exemption ».AKEFIELD, Que (CP) Agriculture Minister Eugene Whelan defended the exemption of farmers from the federal wage guides in a speech to the Wakefield men’s club Thursday evening Citing increased efficiency in agricultural production, Mr Whelan said farmers have been fighting inflation for years “ .farmers have very little influence on the prices for their products.It would be totally unfair to impose guidelines upon farmers when they themselves cannot control prices,” the minister said The text of his speech was released in advance convert 20 per cent of positions in four government departments and 10 per cent of all other departments into units working exclusively in the French language “Language standards established for bilingual positions.including supervisory positions in units working in French, will not be set so as to exclude from competition umiingual candidates who have in dicated their willingness to become bilingual,’’ the council says in a news release “The merit principle will be fully respected ” The council is a consultative body established by public service unions and treasury board to smooth the way for the bilingualism policy.The release said that part two will not be implemented until —All employees and affected bargaining agents have been informed; —Treasury board has given final approval to departmental plans Public service union leaders had threatened to boycott the bilingualism program unless there was more consultation on the units working in French question Rumors spread on new Quebec party QUEBEC (CP) - The Quebec political scene is rife with speculation about the possible formation of a “third force” in the province to serve as an alternative to the governing Liberals and the Opposition Parti Que becois The rumors have been fuelled by speculation about the future of Jerome (’hoquette.Premier Robert Bourassa’s former right-hand man who recently re signed as education minister in a dispute over application of Quebec’s Official Language Act Mr Choquette is being touted by some as a potential leader of a new political party Mr.(’hoquette, however, has reiused to discuss his political future and has said he will make his plans public at a Montreal speech Nov.11.Meanwhile, supporters of the third force idea, including several Union Nationale and Creditiste members, have been meeting throughout the province to lay the groundwork for a new political party.There is some optimism since a recent poll shows that about a third of 700 Quebecers questioned about their preference would support an alternative to the Liberals and Parti Québécois.LIBERALS BEHIND The poll, which also shows the Parti Québécois leading the Liberals in popular support, indicates that 27 per cent of voters would support a party led by Mr (’hoquette By ALEX RADMANOVICH It shows 68 per cent of English-speaking voters and 63 per cent of the French speaking are unhappy with Premier Bourassa However, it has been Union Nationale supporters who have pushed the third force concept hardest Wiped off the electoral map after the 1973 Liberal landslide, the Union Nationale and factions of the splintered provincial Creditiste party have been trying for more than a year to shape* a coalition After Union Nationale interim leader Maurice Bellemare won a byelection seat in August, 1974, he and party organizers teamed up with one Creditiste faction and have recently been mending fences with other splinter groups MEETINGS HELD Political observers say the Union Nationale would like to have Mr (’hoquette as party leader, and party officials have held two meetings with him since his resignation from the Liberal party Fabien Roy, one of two Ralliement Creditiste members in the Quebec national assembly, has also been working for a third force At odds with party leader and assembly colleague Camil Samson, Mr Roy has been telling reporters for more than a year that he would be willing to join such a party Asked if he too had met Mr (’hoquette, he told a news conference he was “hoping to.soon.” Another group which calls itself the “Committee of Nine,” recently released a written manifesto calling for creation of a “third force.” Only four group members identified themselves and all were either Union Nationale or Creditiste

Travel Agency Autopsy held following North Hatley boy’s death SHERBROOKE < BS > — An autopsy on the body of Lynn Chute, 17, of North Hatley is being held in Montreal, following his death early Thursday morning at the CHU after an alleged hunting accident Following the autopsy, a coroner's inquest will be held in Magog regarding the incident which occurred Tuesday evening in the Township of Hatley Quebec Provincial Police could give no further details in the case, other than to say the boy was shot by a 57-year-old Sherbrooke man Details will be revealed at the inquest No date has yet been set Unconfirmed reports said Lynn was hunting with three companions just north of the Woodland Bay Road turnoff, about three miles south of North Hatley when he was shot by the member of another hunting party First aid was administered by Dr Bruce Fletcher before the boy was taken to the CHU where he died the following night He is the son of Mr and Mrs.Tracy Chute of North Hatley.City .applied for Olympic medallion licence SHERBROOKE (GA>- In choosing a Swiss firm to strike Olympic medallions, COJO, the Olympic organizing committee, has provoked a Canadian businessman who claims he was misled.According to a Canadian Press story, he alleges irregularities in the awarding of the contract John Begg.president of Polytherm Packaging Inc of Toronto, claims that Maurice Allan, COJO director of licencing has given the names of Deux Chateaux, Swiscon Canada Ltd.and Swisscon Yacht Ltd.of Montreal as winner of the licence to produce the medallions.Begg.whose firm packages and promotes the official Olympic coins, claims that none of the names of the Swiss company are registered with the federal, Ontario or Quebec government Begg said his company approached COJO in January with a proposal to market a medallion program which was rejected because, I according to COJO officials, the program could hurt the Olympic coin sales.In September COJO facing diminishing coin sales, asked Canadian firms to submit medallion proposals prior to the selection of the Swiss Firm according to Begg “We would not mind losing to a Canadian company”, the company’s vice-president Dick Maclaurin said, “But we resent it going outside the country.” O R Lombardo, president of Lombardo Mint of Sherbrooke, who was named by Begg as one of the Canadian firms that was bypassed by COJO in the awarding of the contract is out of town on a business trip and not available for comment.However, Richard Hove, plant manager, claims there is a good deal of misinterpretation and confusion in the case According to Mr Hoye, Lombardo Mint had submitted an application for permission and licence to manufacture and market an Olympic medallion or a series of medallions and that this licence had been denied last year According to Mr Hoye.his firm also had asked to be considered by COJO when submitting tenders for awards medals.However, the Sherbrooke-based mint was not asked to submit a tender or asked to submit a proposal.Mr Hoye added Confusion exists in the reported from Mr Begg 1 regarding the works, contract and licencing A contract awarded by COJO would mean that they have in effect hired the Swiss firm to manufacture a certain number of medallions If a licence has been granted, it is a result of a firm’s application to COJO for permission to manufacture and market a medallion bearing an Olympic theme and to pay COJO an agreed amount of money or percentage of sales as royalty According to Mr Hoye.the medallions referred to are not to be confused with the awards medals but are com memorative souvenirs and collector's items struck in precious and semi-precious metals.CONGRATULATIONS are extended to W.E.(Ernie) Hodge who is 81 years old today.He lives at 300 Queen
