common front of unions, representing public service workers, protests the slow pace of contract talks with the Quebec government strike next month— tentatively set for March 22—and a test of rank-and file militancy The general strike would be meant to demonstrate oppposition to the wage and price controls, which the unions say have hindered the common front negotiations with the Quebec gov- hospitals were expected to restrict admissions today to emergency cases since an estimated 85,000 nurses and non-professional staff were to participate in the walkout On the education front, about 80 per cent of the schools in the province face closure during the walkout, teacher representatives W * .V (See Page 3 for local situation) Schools, colleges and hospitals were expected to be in disarray as the front, representing 180,000 workers, launches its first province-wide protest over the talks Union spokesmen said it would be a “dress rehearsal” for a possible general eminent Louis Laberge.president of the 275,000-member Quebec Federation of Labor, urged Quebec workers on Wednesday to join in a country-w ide, oneway general strike.Union leaders said about 60 per cent of Quebec’s predicted The public service common front is seeking a 23-per cent salary increase, while Quebec has offered eight per cent.Other demands include job security, reduced workloads and a minimum guaranteed income of $165 a week No blame laid for blast in CIL explosives plant MONTREAL (CP) — Fire commissioner Cyrille Delage accepted the report of a federal government investigation team Wednesday that concluded no criminal responsibility can be found for the explosion and fire that rocked an explosives plant Oct.1, killing eight workers Mr.Delage, acting as special coroner at an inquest held in nearby Beloeil, also accepted 14 major recommendations to govern the future production of nitroglycerine-base explosives.The explosion destroyed a shed at the Canadian Industries Ltd (CIL) explosives plant where a new type of nitro-glycerine-base explosive was being manufactured and packaged The explosive, ethyleneglycol mononitrate was ground up in the hut in a special mixing machine and then fed to the conveyor belt for packaging Fritz Van Ziggeren, CIL’s director of laboratory research and a member of the federal investigation team, told the inquest Wednesday the most probable source of the explosion was a pump used to transport the crushed primary material further into the mixer.All production of that particular explosive at the plant has been halted since the blast, Mr Van Ziggeren said.Grafftey says he was urged to " from PC race OTTAWA (CP) — Heward Grafftey, defeated Progressive Conservative leadership candidate from Quebec, said Wednesday a man who identified himself as the chief fund-raiser for the Brian Mulroney campaign offered by telephone to pick up his campaign debts if he would withdraw from the race and throw his support to Mr Mulroney.In a telephone interview, Mr Grafftey said the offer was made before the balloting began Sunday afternoon by a man who identified himself as David Angus, on behalf of the Mulroney campaign However, Mr Angus, reached Wednesday night in Montreal, denied having had any contact with Mr Grafftey “That’s absolutely false, that’s ridiculous,” Mr.Angus said when told of Mr Grafftey’s statement.Mr.Grafftey, a 47-year-old member of Parliament from Brome-Missisquoi, said a man who identified himself as Mr Angus reached him Sunday in the Grafftey hotel suite “and pleaded with me to withdraw” from the leadership race “He said he didn't think I had much of a chance to win,” Mr Grafftey said “Then he lowered his voice and said if I supported Mulroney, he’d make sure my debts were covered.” The candidate said he politely refused the offer Patrick Bickerech, vice-president of the chemical workers union affiliated with the Confederation of National Trade Unions, said he was satisfied with the report The recommendations call for greater security in the use of (equipment for the manufacture of nitroglycerine base explosives and for a program to train all employees who are to work with these explosives Other recommendations included a quantitative analysis of all methods of handling all nitro glycerine based explosives to be undertaken by the company’s research division It was recommended that any deviation from the analysis during the manufacture of explosives must have the written approval of the research division Another recommendation was that steps be taken to lower the number of employees who have direct contact with the explosives during their fabrication It was also recommended that the crushing of raw material for explosives should take place in a different building than where they are manufactured and that all metallic equipment in the manufacturing sheds should be grounded The quantity of explosives used in a manufacturing shed at one time should be kept to a minimum, the report said £ \r.V v»cO of “positive significance’’ and their talks had been “candid and unconstrained ” Nixon's China trip f 0993 18227119 2 — THK SHKKBKOOKK KKC OKI)

agreed to negotiate a “contractual link" with ( anada But it remains to he seen w hether this is a serious attempt to expand transatlantic trade or mere political window dressing.While the Canadian government has never explained its strateg) in more than broad generalities, it obviously cannot expect any preferential tariff concessions from Europe.Canada, the Common Market members and all the non Communist industrial nations, are bound by the General \greement on tariffs and Trade which forbids commercial discrimination between them If.for in stance.Nation \ reduces the tariff on some product of Nation B the reduction must include that product if it is exported by any signatory of GATT.Ibis principle of multilateralism, the essential machinery of the contract, has been evaded in some minor cases now and then but it could not be applied to the massive commerce between Canada and the Common Market.If such a violation of the GATT rules were threatened, great trading nationa like the Cnited States.Japan and others would not only protest but retaliate against the offenders.To Canada, retaliation from the Cnited States, its primary foreign market, could be devastating.No

"contractual link?" It could seek increased European investment in Canadian in dustry.more attention to Canadian gomls and the additional use of some European technology • but these would be marginal gains at best.In fact, the proposed agreement will mean little or nothing unless it involves a broad multilateral tariff reduction throughout the GATT membership in the so-called Toky o Round of negotiations already under way.If that is the ( anadian government's real purpose the "contractual link" can be a useful move at the bargaining table, a proof of constructive intent, a wise example for other nations to follow.But it would represent a significant change from Canada's position in the previous GATT bargain, the so-called Kennedy Round I’nder a former government Canada offered minimum tariff concessions to its partners, received large concessions from them and ended with its old protectionist system still intact Since then it has maintained some of the highest trade barriers in the world against the manufactured goods of the rich nations (though it admits most raw materials of the poor nations free of customs duties).4 4-4- In Ottawa the results of the Kennedy Round were regarded as a notable victory but in foreign capitals, especially Washington, they left a lingering resentment and Canada's partners certainly will not allow that exercise to be repeated.The Canadian government must be well aware of these facts as it begins to negotiate simultaneously with the Common Market and with all the GATT members.Cp to now.however, it has given no indication, except in pious platitudes, of its wish to reduce tariffs generally.Instead, it has refused to scale down its own import restrictions even when the increased competition of foreign go«>ds would have been the strongest brake on consumer prices.It has always insisted nevertheless that in the Tokyo Round it would offer generous terms to its partners on a reciprocal, multilateral basis and take a leading part in worldwide tariff reform.The "contractual link" negotiations can In* a promising start but only if they lead to a far wider initiative which will test the government’s true long-run policy, its political courage and also the attitude of the historically protectionist Conservative Opposition.WINNIPEG FREE PRESS I MK Mit KKK< N »kt RECORD Only English Daily in the Eastern Townships SUBSCRIPTION RATES Published by Eastern Townships Publishing Co.Ltd P 0.Box 1200 — 2520 Roy Street Sherbrooke.Que — Telephone 819-569-9528 Second class registration number 1064 Mail Subscription Rates and Carrier Paid in Advance (CPA) Rates MaM Mail Subscriptions outside Local Area, or Local Area* CPA on existing carrier routes $1900 $26 00 12 months $24 00 10 50 $1300 6 months 12 00 600 600 3 months 650 350 1 month 350 *The Local Arsa comprises the following counties of the Province of Quebec Arthabaska — Brome — Compton — Drummond — Frontenac — Megantic — Mitsitquoi — Richmond — Rouville — Shefford — Sherbrooke — Stenstead — Wolfe 4 oO> • A m Faster than a speeding bullet!

word-retroactively— stands as the stumbling block in w^Bations between major le^^e baseball’s club owners and players The dispute has delayed spring training and also threatens the start of the 1976 season Of course, it is not really all that simple Apparently there will be no baseball until the owners have run the full gamut of court action But the onelvord issue is a thorny one in the continuing talks Briefly, an arbitrator and later a federal judge ruled that the standard baseball contract allows a player to play out a one-year option season and then become a free agent The owners appealed the judge s ruling to a federal tribunal in St.Louis, with which it now rests The latest talks between the owners’ negotiating committee and the Major League Players Association, headed by executive director Marvin Miller, lasted two hours Wednesday MEET \(.\l\ I l\Y There was no progress reported.but they agreed to meet again Friday in New York Both sides indicate a willingness to compromise on the controversial reserve clause, but the owners want any agreement to be retroactive to last Dec 31, when a two-year collective bargaining agreement with the association expired Miller

adjoining tack rooms A groom attempting to save his horses was the only person reported injured Races scheduled for Tuesday night were cancelled.but track officials expected to resume the current Mississippi Valley Trotting Association season Wednesday night An estimated 45 horses were led from the blazing Barn F.one of nine at the track Most of the dead animals were burned beyond recognition and two were put to sleep by veterinarians in what track manager Jack Weaver termed the worst tragedy in the facility’s 22-year history The worth of the horses was estimated by chief track steward Tim

TUCKS.FEB.26.1976 - || from the arbitrator and the judge He says more pointedly he cannot legally negotiate a compromise that gives away these rights He contends every player would have to sign a waiver of his new one-year option privilege The owners, led by chief negotiator John Gaherin.claim a collective bargaining agreement would supersede any player’s right to invoke the one-year option CITES Kl LING Gaherin cites a 1943 labor case in which the court ruled that a worker with a private contract cannot supersede his collective bargaining agent Miller says it is not so He says the case referred to by Gaherin has no application to baseball—that the player contract and basic agreement are independent of each other He insists if he compromised the arbitrator’s decision, the players union might be subject to a damage suit by any player who felt his contracturai right was abbrogated by the collective bargaining agreement However.Miller said he told the owners if they want to give the association a letter accepting liability for any such suits, and if they will set up a contingent fund for that purpose, he will negotiate a reserve clause compromise without retroactivity.The owners, despite their contention that a player could not win such a suit, refused Miller’s solution, saying the liability was the association’s problem White Pigeon.Wis .was valued at $35.000 An

animals Every year this ordinarily takes place at the end of May However, all this has been rescheduled because of the 1976 Summer Olympics The Forum will be handed over to COJO the moment the hockey playoffs are over and the popular St Catherine Street West building will be made ready for the Olympic events scheduled for there, so this year the Shriners Circus has been booked into the Forum from March 17 through 21.Box office sales at the FORUM opened Monday, February 9 and Matt I^ambert, the Chairman of the Shriners Circus for the last five years, reports that many companies are already purchasing blocks of tickets to provide underprivileged children with the chance to see the Circus The annual Chriners Circus is sponsored by the Karnak Temple and proceeds go to the Shriners Hospital
