NEW YORK iCP) — Shares of Johns-Manville Corp., the world s largest producer of asbestos, tumbled on the New York stock market Wednesday in the wake of Quebec Premier Rene Levesque’s statement that his government might take control of the asbestos industry But president John McKinney of Johns-Manville said in a statement concerning Levesque’s remarks in a New York speech Tuesday that there is “no reason for undue concern’’ over the company’s Canadian operations in Quebec Shares of the parent company dropped S3.75 a share to $27.75 at the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange The exchange held up trading in the issue for the first 90 minutes Wednesday because of a wave of selling More than 375,000 shares were traded, including one 100,000-share block McKinney noted in his statement issued from his Denver.Colo , headquarters that JohnsManville’s management had been in touch with the Parti Québécois government and plans to meet with Levesque and other Quebec officials shortly “to clarify eny concerns the new government may have .” McKinney said that Levesque’s latest remarks about asbestos were “nothing new,’’ and the extreme reaction of the financial community is not warranted “The premier’s remarks pose no threat to the continued profitable operation of Johns-Manville’s business in Quebec.’’ McKinney said “We are sensitive to the desires of the Quebec government and fully anticipate being able to work productively with that government.At the same time, we will take all appropriate measures to enhance the interests of our investors .” In Toronto, Asbestos Corp shares dropped more than 85 cents to about $21 85 a share Asbestos Corp mines properties at Thetford Mines.Que .and in the Ungava Peninsula OTHERS DROP Shares of Asarco, another asbestos producer in Quebec’s eastern Town ships, fell about more than 35 cents a share to $19 Levesque told a meeting of New York financiers Tuesday that his govern ment has no plans for nationalization— with the possible exception of the asbestos industry He said: “The sole exception, and we have always been quite specific about it, has to do with the mining and processing of asbestos, insofar as we find such an ultimate solution necessary if we are to correct ra'her poisonous working conditions in that sector, and also to gain full advantage of our position as first world producer and exporter.” Johns-Manville has produced asbestos in the Eastern Townships since early in the century and employs hundreds of workers in Quebec province A spokesman for Asarco.Inc , which owns 1(H) per cent of the shares of Lake Asbestos of Quebec Ltd .said the firm had no comment on Levesque’s speech I^ake Asbestos, which has a mine in Black l^ake.Que , accounts for about 12 per cent of Canadian asbestos production Like most other producers, it is centred in the Eastern Townships region of Quebec', about 130 miles southeast of Montreal The Arsarco spokesman said there had been no contacts with the new Quebec government “to the best of my knowledge ” Urges Ottawa move to aid textiles QUEBEC (CP) Rodrigue Tremblay, minister of industry and commerce, called on the federal government Wednesday for new measures to protect Quebec’s floundering textile industry.Mr Tremblay told a news conference more controls on foreign imports were needed, and said that under the current political system, only Ottawa was capable of handling the situation.The minister said that in all three sectors of the industry— primary textiles, knitwear and clothing-growth has dropped off since RODRIGUE TREMBLAY 1973.“Since the beginning of 1974, imports being greater than in the previous years, the situation has deteriorated in the three sectors,” Mr Tremblay said ‘‘Production has diminished, and there have been numerous layoffs and bankruptcies.” Between 1961 and 1973, employment grew six per cent, 49 per cent and 23 per cent respectively in primary textiles, knitwear and clothing Since 1973, the same sectors dropped 15, five and three per cent, said the minister.The whole Canadian textile industry, of which 60 Byelections possible in spring OTTAWA (CP) — Prime Minister Trudeau said W’ednesdav he may call byelections in five vacant Quebec ridings this spring, providing a forum for the first democratic expression by Quebecers” to Rene Levesque’s separatist government Mr Trudeau told a news conference he realizes he must call bvelections in the ridings six months after they become vacant.It was “quite possible that will be after winter and before summer.” There was some confusion after the news conference whether Mr Trudeau would hold, or merely call, byelections in the vacant seats.Some of his aides said the prime minister indicated he would hold the votes, others that he would just set dates for them Mr Trudeau said he regards the bvelections as a the in- “mini-referendum” on question of Quebec dependence He added that he felt Quebecers could demonstrate whether they supported federalism in the byelections even though the Parti Québécois will run no candidates WILL BE TEST If Liberals ‘‘lose massively” in the byelections, it would be a clear indication of the party’s inability to promote such goals as national unity.The votes would give all Federal parties a chance to present their views on national unity.Quebecers would indicate their “degree of belief” in the ability of parties to promote federalism by their ballots.The prime minister said Liberal losses in the byelections would not put him in a position where he would resign as Liberal leader But losses might make the federal party feel it should change some of its policies and, perhaps, its leader.Two ridings, Louis Hebert and Temisca m ingue, became empty with the death of Liberal MP Albanie Morin last Sept.30 and former Social Credit leader Real Caouette in December The other three ridings, Verdun, Terrebonne and Langelier, became vacant when three federal Liberals—Bryce Mackasey, Roland Comtois and Senator Jean Marchand—decided to leave Parliament to run for provincial office in last fall’s election Mr.Trudeau will visit today and Friday the vacant ridings of Louis Hebert and Langelier in the Quebec City region, a move regarded as the beginning of the Liberal campaign to recapture the seats.Quebec won't separate-Trudeau OTTAWA 4 at $32:,4.Zeller’s Ltd five cents at S3 10

( JM > — Noms McKenney, Alberta, formerly of Sutton, changed his option and pleaded guilty to a reduced charge of joy-riding in Abercorn during 1972 His lawyer, Pierre Gibeau, Legal Aid Office, offered the plea in lieu of a defenve on a charge of car theft Crown attorney Claude Noiseux accepted the reduced plea and suggested the accused \ should be fined a minimum $100 “We had a hard time finding him and it cost the crown a substantial amount of money to have him brought here from Alberta,” Mr Noiseux said.Mr Gibeau indicated his client, who completed a sentence levied in Alberta while he was detained in Sweetsburg, had to find a job in order to pay the fine, and asked for a lengthy delay.Judge Gerard Normandin fined McKenney $100 and costs, in default 30 days, and allowed him two

his pass he decided to get away from the torment he was being subjected to and managed to find constant employment while he was out,” Mr.Gibeau said “As a matter of fact he called his classification officer to tell him he would prove beyond all reasonable doubt he was not a recidivist.Furthermore he had no ruin-ins with the police wmle !it was freed In view ol the extenuating circumstances I humbly suggest he be handed a minimum term of 15 days.” Corwn prosecutor Noiseux said he had no information to lead him to believe Lebrun had taken part in any criminal activities while he was freed Judge Normandin sentenced the accused to 15 days, consecutive, to the seven year term he is currently serving which would have expired in 1978 had Lebrun not taken two years illegal liberty.+ + +

rehabilitated themselves.“I cannot refuse your request for a probation report.” Judge Normandin said “However, you must inform your clients, regardless of the report, they will spend some time in jail.The incidence of burglaries in dwellings is far too high and people have the right to live in peace and comfort I cannot say whether or not they will be sentenced to weekends or whether I will decide on continued time Rest assured they will be behind bars to reflect on their deeds ” Their sentences were adjourned to April 25 and the young men were freed on their own recognisance D+ + Bench

of the Quebec Association of Protestant School Boards, a special guest at the Eastern Townships Regional School Board's regular meeting last night, revealed a number of interesting views gained from his recent meeting with the education ministry Mr Wadsworth said that by the end of April school boards should have a definite decision regarding ap plications of Bill 22.Quebec's Official language Act It is anticipated that the application of Bill 22 will solely affect immigrant families entering Quebec The extent to which Bill 22 will alter the education of English families now living in Quebec has not been officially formulated, Mr Wadsworth went on to say Due to the expected universal application of mandatory French education for immigrant families “language tests will be abolished.” said Mr Wadsworth The Eastern Townships Regional School Board faced an important decision last night regarding the purchase of an NCR 444 mini computer capable of printing out tax bills, pay checks and other laborious work or dinarily completed by board staff employees Board members were faced with the choice of renting or buying the computer without the approval of the education ministry A prior letter sent by the board, to the ministry of education, requesting permission to finance the $36,000 computer over a five year period was refused Although the monies to be spent for the computer may be declared financially “inadmissable’’ by education auditors and monies spent will be charged under current operating costs the board, nevertheless.resolved to proceed with the purchase Board members favoring the motion argued that the heavy work burden necessitated the purchase of the computer Time and money saved will largely outweigh the inconveniences of more “inadmissable” dollars Members dissenting pointed out that should the purchase of the computer be declared‘ inadmissable” the extra money would have to be raised through an increase of taxes In other board business it was resolved that further quotations by electricians be sought to replace hazardous fixtures at the board’s garage located at 113 Wellington St., Sherbrooke The resolution was prompted by an inspection by the Sherbrobke Fire Depart ment which declared 11 fixtures possible fire sour ces French schools closed by half day walkout SHERBROOKE tGB* French speaking teachers, tired

squabbling over syndicate prerogatives, consultation, employment security, work distribution and disciplinary measures “Contract negotiation are always the same.” the source continued, “each side

Lennoxville United C hurch.Variety show to be held by Fuzzy Patrol LENNOXVILLE The Fuzzy Patrol, a Lennoxville Youth Group, is planning to put on a variety show entitled “Smiles, Songs and Sunshine” under the direction of writer-director Steve Gillam He has been working hard on this show and has been moulding the rest of the group into actors since September when the group got together again

Church in Lennoxville.Tickets are available in advance from all Fuzzy Patrol members, or at the door Archbishop comments on Brazil visit SHERBROOKE (DS) The City of Sherbrooke will not install fluoridation equipment to treat the city’s water supply, said chief engineer Jean-Paul Lajoie yesterday.According to Mr Lajoie, after checking with the provincial government, he has found that the city is not obligated to add fluoride to its water treatment facilities The former government had passed legislation requiring all Quebec municipalities to fluoridate water as of January 1, 1977, subjecting those who failed to $5,000 fines for every day the treatment was delayed Sherbrooke has just spent approximately $3.000.000 to update the present water system by the addition of new ozonating equipment at the city’s reservoir Mayor Jacques O’Bready had said earlier that he would not confront the province over the issue and that he would install the equipment if legally required to do so He said, however, that the city had no provisions for the costly fluoridation equipment in its budget The mayor had said he saw nothing wrong in fluoridation and that the city’s reticence in installing the system was simply a question of finances and not principles “Personnally, I wouldn’t start a fight over it There are as many advantages as disadvantages, maybe more Montreal's Mayor Jean Drapeau had opposed fluoridatpon from the start, saying that it was a violation of basic human rights to inject a substance into the water supply and force people to drink it against their will.Mr O’Bready countered that form of thinking by saying that it was also a violation to have to breath in car fumes from someone else's exhaust, but admitted there was little that could lx* done about it The mayor said that he has spoken to dentists who seem to agree that fluoridation is a good thing, but that the city’s finances did not allow such measures.UFOs -fact or fancy?Sylvania

Brazil is to form future priests who can carry on the present work of our missionaries,” said Archbishop Jean Marie Fortier of Sherbrooke Tuesday at a press conference.After a three week visit to Brazil the Archbishop spoke of the numerous difficulties faced by missionary priests as well as the lessons that can be learned from the Brazilian population The main objective of a missionary priest in Brazil, said the Archbishop, is to build a parish to teach the inhabitants the fundamental teachings of the Catholic Church The missionary’s task is difficult, he continued, since the Brazilian people have become an increasingly itinerary people At present there is a mass exodus from the country to the city “People born on the road literally die on the road,” he went on to say Difficulties are largely outweighed by the positive aspects of missionary work, said the archbishop.“The spontaneity of the people during religious services, the fraternity, and their biblical appetites,” are certainly striking points of the Brazilian culture With an acute decrease in the ordination of priests in the Diocese of Sherbrooke the Brazilian people must become conscious of the fact that soon there will not be as many missionary priests from Canada in Brazil “My main objective in calling this press conference was to manifest the continued interest of the Diocese of Sherbrooke in Brazilian missionary work,” Archbishop Fortier concluded Operation Lrfe/tv|k Don't take chances on death or disfigurement.Belt up, and drive sa tel v! 1.LNNOXVILLE (JC) Even established nonbelievers could not help but keep one eye on the sky after hearing Stanton Friedman’s illustrated lecture on UFOs at Bishop’s Centennial Theatre Monday night Over 400 people were present to hear the nuclear physicist who has spent 17 years studying and investigating UFOs.Mr Friedman said most UFO sightings are described to the public as illusions or psychological abberations and governments label explanations and viewers as incompetent or inadequate Yet Mr Friedman’s lecture included government and Air Force data unknown to most people The data included numerous sightings by commercial and Air Force pilots and scientists A recent Gallup poll in the US found that 11 per cent of adult Americans believe VALE PERKINS Mrs.Geo.Jewett 292-5245 Mr Hugh Perkins of Cowansville visited Mr and Mrs Maurice Jewett one

a UFO-almost 15 million people.Mr Friedman challenged the government’s passing of UFOs as merely an optical illusion with statistics showing that 60 per cent of all sightings lasted more than one minute, and 40 per cent lasted more than 10 minutes Ted Phillips, a Missouri scientist, has spent his life investigating over 1,000 cases where a UFO has left landing traces and other physical

political violence that has claimed seven lives in Madrid this week Trying to cope with Spain’s worst crisis since dictator Francisco Franco died 14 months ago, Premier Adolfo Suarez’s cabinet invoked a Franco anti-terrorism law late Wednesday night, allowing police to hold suspects more than 72 hours without charges and give them the right to search without warrants.The declaration followed a day of countrywide strikes by 1.5 million workers protesting anti-leftist attacks, and the turnout of an estimated 100,000 people in Madrid for the funeral of three of five Communist lawyers slain Monday night by right-wing extremists Workers returned to their jobs today and no serious street violence was reported A cabinet statement accused radical groups of "an attack on the state, including the provoking of the armed forces.” The statement did not directly accuse right-wing extremists, who leftist and moderate political leaders say are trying to derail the government’s reform program with a campaign of bloodshed But the government said it "is firmly decided on establishing democracy because this is the mandate it has received from the Spanish people in the recent referendum ” POLICE GATHER GINS A crackdown was ordered on possession of small arms, large quantities of which are known to have been collected by rightists Police were given the right to confiscate guns, even from persons with licences, if they had reason to believe "the arms might be used against public order ” The police have been ordered to bring the guilty to justice no matter what "their status or ideology.” the government said in an apparent answer to criticism that leftists were arrested quickly but the extreme right went virtually uncontrolled The bodies of the slain law yers lay in state Wednesday in the Palace of Justice w hile more than 10,000 persons filed past Afterward thousands packed the sidewalks in the heart of the city as officials of the outlawed Communist party escorted the three coffins to suburban cemeteries Hammer-and sickle wreaths were on the coffins and Roman Catholic priests walked with the political leaders Private funeral services were held for the other two victims of the machine-gun attack on an office in which a group of labor lawyers was meeting An ultra-rightist group, the Apostolic Anticommunist Alliance, said two of its members were the gunmen There was no violence during the funeral The government ordered 500 extra plainclothes police and four riot control companies into the capital, and police jeeps and buses guarded key points Leftist leaders urged ) their supporters to keep calm and do nothing to provoke rightist attacks Meanwhile, the protest strikes affected schools, banks, industry and public transportation Labor sources said 50,000 workers stayed off the job in Madrid, NEW YORK (CP) Columnist James Reston of the New York Times says the melody of separatism carried to Wall Street by Quebec Premier Rene Levesque "seems a little out of date and almost tragic.” Levesque told top US business leaders and a large Canadian representation Tuesday that independence for Quebec is almost as inevitable as it was 200 years LONDON (AP) - A government report released Wednesday recommends that workers be given as much power as owners in running Britain’s large companies The proposal met with immediate condemnation from industrialists and a mixed reaction from labor leaders.The report by a government appointed committee urges that as many worker directors as shareholder representatives be put on the boards of large companies A third, smaller group of directors would be selected jointly by labor and manage- MIAMI, Fla (AP) - The FBI says it is subpoenaing hundreds of longshore union leaders and shipping officials at ports along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts in an investigation of alleged organized crime involvement in the union and payoffs by management Some of those subpoenaed will be called to testify in February before grand juries in Miami and New York City, an FBI spokesman said Wednesday SAN FRANCISCO • Reuter) — A state of emergency was announced here Wednesday as California headed for what may prove to be a winter of record drought, possibly leading to water rationing throughout the state later this year Officials said the city’s Public Utilities Commission passed an emergency resolution asking the two million users of its water system here and in neigh boring communities to reduce their water use by 10 200.000 struck in the autonomy-minded Basque and Catalan regions, and 50.000 walked out in other regions.Scattered clashes were reported between students and police, but there were no serious confrontations.ago for the 13 American colonies He also told the Economic Club of New York that the important question was not whether or when Quebec would become independent but how.He pledged a moderate, democratic course through a referendum on independence but refused to give a specific date The guess in New York, Reston writes, is that ment.The plan would go into effect only if one-third of a company’s workers voted for it and would apply only to private firms with at least 2,000 employees The 738 companies that fall into this category employ seven million people, about a third of the total British work force.The committee was led by Lord Alan Bullock, master of St Catherine’s College, Oxford University.British industrialists were unanimous in condemning the plan.Officials of Miami firms who received subpoenas said they were asked for financial and legal records The grand juries are being empaneled to investigate "reported irregularities taking place in major ports in the U S,” FBI Director Clarence Kelley said in a statement relayed by an FBI spokesman in Miami The statement gave no further details, and Kelley was not available for direct comment per cent Water rationing is already in effect in Marin County, across the Golden Gate Bridge from San Francisco, and residents are being asked to report water-wasting neighbors In Oakland, officials said they would order a 25 per cent cut in water use next week and.after a public hearing, require the 11 million users of its water system to pay higher rates for any water used above the reduced level Rhodesia edges to all out war SALISBURY (Reuten -Top black nationalist sources said here Wednesday that troops and arms were being moved from Soviet-backed Somalia to Mozambique for full-scale war against white-rule Rhodesia The sources, from two nationalist groups, refused to discuss the number of troops or kind of armaments but mentioned the possibility of "tanks crossing the border ” The Soviet Union helps to arm Somalia The sources reported the troop movements as British efforts to find a solution to the Rhodesian constitutional issue appear on the verge of breaking down WASHINGTON (Reuter) — President Carter conferred for 30 minutes Wednesday night with British Ambassador Sir Peter Ramsbotham on the Rhodesia crisis, the British economy and Vice-President Mondale’s visit to London today.Reporters were not given details of the discussion on Rhodesia Levesque "has misjudged the Economic Club of New York, the city bankers, like David Rockefeller, the multinational corporations, and even the press, though he has been a brilliant journalist.” "They are all having to deal with a different world,” Reston writes in Wednesday’s editions."They all want to make money as usual, but the notion of a separate Quebec, breaking off from Ottawa, the possibility of a divided Canada, is not the sort of thing they are likely to invest in over the long run, even if they might fiddle with making profits in Quebec for the rest of the decade.” CANADA LOVED What Levesque has apparently misunderstood is that the United States believes in Canada, Reston writes "It even loves its neighbor, and is startled by the thought that Canada might break down into squabbling provinces—Reston calls them states—even if some of them wanted to join the American republic Reston also says that Levesque was "very appealing and clever” in his historical analogies between Quebec and the original American colonies The 13 colonies tried the separatist route of independent commonwealths, tied loosely together, but it was "a spectacular failure” in the American articles of federation, and had to be scrapped.Reston notes It was followed by a more perfect union centred on the federal capital and not on the states.Henry Gimger.staff correspondent for The Times in Montreal who was in New York for Levesque’s speech, says the speech appeared to be at least as much directed to his political opponents in Canada as it was to the U S financial community COOL RECEPTION The speech was received politely and coolly, Giniger writes, and he quotes one dinner guest as saying before departure; "That man is seditious He’s got to be stopped ” He quoted a member of the Canadian contingent as saying bitterly : "Heis breaking up my country ” The Washington Post in its report of the speech says the audience appeared anything but reassured The Washington Star ran a story among its briefs saying the speech left the audience obviously skeptical The Wall Street Journal, in a factual account, says the private meetings that Levesque, together with some of his cabinet and senior Hydro Quebec officials.had with prominent U S businessmen and bankers would be more significant than the premier’s remarks to the Economic Club Levesque's speech: "Out of date and a little tragic?"

SHERBROOKE RECORD — THI RS .J AV 27.1977 — 11 Success hasn't spoiled Canada's universities must be involved.Kathy Kreiner CIAU awaits Federal plans for 1980 Olympics TIMMINS.Ont (CP) — Success hasn’t spoiled Kathy Kreiner It has only made her more aggressive or.as she says, “less shy.” The 19-year-old Timmins skier, only Canadian to win a gold medal in the 1976 Olympics, received her latest honor when she was named Canada’s female athlete of the year in a Canadian Press poll i was very excited,” said Kat^b who spent the Chromas holidays at home but learned about the poll while campaigning in Europe with the Canadian ski team.i didn’t think of the selection being made at all, soit was a complete surprise when I was called ” Kathy became an instant celebrity on Feb 13 last year after a steady but uneventful skiing career when she won the giant slalom at Innsbruck, thwarting the bid for a third gold medal of Rosi Mittermaier of West Germany who had won the downhill and slalom.FEELS MORE RELAXED Has life changed for her since that day?“I certainly go to more functions, dinners and press conferences,” she said.“I have opened up more and feel a little more at ease when attending these events.I have learned to relax and take things as they come and to let people take me as I am.” Does she feel the Canadian team should prepare its skiers for such occasions?“Yes I feel that a publicspeaking course should be given to team members We should not only be taught skiing techniques but the structure of finances for the Canadian team, so we can discuss it intelligently when questioned by reporters and the public.” Kathy and her older sister Laurie, who now coaches youngsters and runs the dining room of the Kamiskotia Hills Ski Club, were invited to the national team’s summer training camp in 1969 Laurie made the team but Kathy had to wait another year STARTED EARLY She had been skiing since she was three and started racing at seven Her father.Dr H O.Kreiner, the team s doctor in 1966 and 1968, said Kathy is young enough to have another go at Olympic competition Kathy said she has not even begun to think about retirement She was not interested in becoming a ski professional and the idea of becoming a commentator like Nancy Greene Raine “doesn’t excite me at all.” Her education is at a standstill.“I haven’t gone to school for a couple of years,” she said.“I took a French course last summer in Montreal.In the future, I hope to continue my education.” Apart from Kathy and Laurie, the family consists of Elizabeth, married and living in Timmins; Tom, a part-time teacher and bookseller in Toronto; Philip, a teacher in Jamaica, and Jim, who runs the Kamiskotia Hills club And what does an Olympic gold medallist do when she comes home for a holiday?“I spent the afternoon cooking hamburgers and serving coffee at the chalet.It was really great, but we were busy.” EDMONTON (CP) -President Ed Zemrau of the Canadian Intercollegiate Athletic Union (CIAU) is anxious for the federal government to prepare an outline of its plans to provide top-level athletes to compete in the 1980 Olympics at Moscow.Canada’s universities must be involved in the planning, he said, along with representatives of all other national sports organizations “We re at a crossroads,” Zemrau said in an interview “For too long, Canada s amateur sports organizations have been unco-ordinated and it is time for the federal government to decide where we’re going “Does the government plan to continue the level of support it provided for the Olympics in Montreal last summer or are they prepared to let it drop?“Considering the amount of government money spent to develop elite athletes, logically, the government should be interested in pursuing and extending the programs.” Zemrau, head of the physical education department at University of Alberta, said Canada’s universities have recognized the need to provide expertise and facilities to keep top Canadian athletes at the peak of their competitive form.WEAKER SINCE OLYMPICS “Elitism is not a dirty word as long as all other levels of sport—intramural, semi-final and strictly recreational—are recognized too.“Some organizations have Nicky Slater and Kathryn Winter Eyeing 1980 Olympics MANCHESTER, England (CPj^ Teen-agers Nicky SlatflRnd Kathryn Winter were reserves on the British figureskating team at the

of grasses that should be sown to get the best and most economical turf A good-quality, hard-wearing turf is one of the first essentials for success in carrying on track and field, cricket, golf,
