passed the Commons Tuesday night after being given a rough ride by the New Democratic Party The legislation means that the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) must end its strike by Thursday or its leaders and its members could face thousands of dollars in fines They must stay on the job until December.1979 There was no question that the bill would become law today after consideration by the Senate Meanwhile.CUPW scheduled a news conference for this morning to announce whether it would obey the legislation The union had kept the country guessing all day Tuesday on its reaction to the legislation and finally an nounced that its executive board must consider the bill and make a decision The legislation was the 13th hack to-work bill since 1951 Its penalties for violation of its provisions are the toughest ever SEEKS PE ACE By keeping the postal workers on the job for almost 15 months the government is seeking to assure labor peace in the post office while it is being transformed into a Crow n corporation The NDP said the government is dreaming—that by ig noring some of the major causes of inside postal workers dissatisfaction the government will continue to have trouble Under the legislation, Andre Ouellet.acting labor minister, will appoint a mediator-arbitrator.This person w ill first seek to achieve a negotiated settlement between CUPW and the government He will settle areas where there is no agreement possible through binding arbitra tion He w ill report to the labor minister in 90 days, longer if the union and the government negotiators agree Ouellet told the Commons that he hoped to name the mediator arbitrator rapidly The man w ill deal with union wage demands of 15 5 per cent and a government offer of about six per cent Basie salary plus allowances now averages $7 14 an hour If the workers go on strike during the life of the legislation they face fines of $100 a day If union leaders counsel a strike they could pay $2.500 plus $250 for each day The union w ould be liable to $10.000 plus $1,000 a day WENT OCT MONDAY Some of the 23.000 CUPW members started striking early Monday, although the union did not call an official strike until Monday night Senate stalls postal hammer OTTAWA (CP) - The Senate refused early this morning to rush through legislation forcing inside postal workers back to work, thus giving the union and the government an extra 24 hours to try to reach a negotiated settlement.Accusing the government of “trying to make a fool of the Senate,” Opposition Leader Jacques Flynn withheld the unanimous consent necessary to pass the bill through all three stages in one sitting.The Senate resumed debate today on second reading —approval in principle—of the bill.Several Opposition MPs felt the delay by the Senate had been carefully engineered by the government to give both sides in the dispute some breathing room Legislation ending the strike by the 23,000-member Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW)—passed by the Commons in one day—would have come into effect at 12:01 a m.(EDT) today if it had passed the Senate and had been given royal assent before midnight Tuesday night.But because the Senate did not begin considering the bill until after midnight, there was no possibility it could take effect before 12.01 a m Thursday.NO MORE POINT Senators decided there was no point in wasting sleep since there was no longer any urgency to their approval.PCs forget confidence motion OTTAWA (CP) — The Conservatives were so busy cooperating with the Liberals Tuesday night there was no time to vote on the motion expressing no confidence on the goverenment The Commons devoted most of the day passing legislation to end the postal strike, with the Conservatives working with the government to give quick passage As a result the debate on the speech from the throne was suspended.At 9:45 p m the Commons had been due to vote on a motion which said the government is failing to provide effective leadership for Canada The vote was to be held today.The government had expected the Commons to pass the bill by 9 pm (EDT>, giving the Senate three hours to consider it But after an evening of watching the World Series on television in Parliament Hill offices, senators decided not to proceed Supreme Court Justice Wishart Spence spent the evening with the senators, on call to give royal assent as the governor generals deputy.Flynn said it was not right to ask the Senate to approve a bill moments before it was due to take effect “Do you think it would lie fair to tell the strikers who are in a legal strike to go back to work in two minutes?” CUPW president Jean-Claude Parrot had already said his members would stay out at least until 11 a m (EI)T) today Ray Perrault, Senate government leader, urged the Senate to speed the bill through all stages in the early morning hours today as a courtesy to MPs who sat late to pass it and to Spence NO TIME However, some Liberal and Conservative senators objected that they hadn’t had time to study the bill, which was photocopied rather than printed for distribution in the Senate in an effort to speed up the process.Perrault reacted angrily to accusations that the Senate was 1mmng rushed ‘There is no suggestion whatsoever that this measure is to be passed in any undue haste,” he shouted at Conservative senators Walter Baker.Progressive Conservative leader in the Commons, and Stanley Knowles, his New Democratic counterpart, agreed the government delayed convening the Senate Tuesday night so it would not be able to deal with the hill SBI Pick of the crop.These piles of pumpkins will shortly he gracing local grocers’ pounder, all grown on the Sherbrooke Dtivernay Road farm £ stands with the approach of

Court hearing Tuesday he thought his abductors were “just young men playing cowboy pranks” when they appeared at his cottage near Sherbrooke The Sherbrooke credit union employee and his secretary.Aline Yergeau.were at the cottage at Stoke when “two hooded and armed men appeared at the door and said, this is a holdup .* “It seemed incredible,” Marion said, “because I had no large amount of money in the cottage I didn’t think it too upsetting because they were only after money.” Marion was testifying at the trial of Claude and Jeanne Valence, charged with conspiring to kidnap the loans manager, kidnapping him, forcibly detaining him from Aug 6 to Oct.27, 1977, attempted extortion and extortion Marion said his two abductors forced him and Miss Yergeau to lie on the floor “One of the men put a revolver to the back of my neck, while the other tied Miss Yergeau’s hands and feet.” One of the men dragged Miss Yergeau to the bathroom, tied her to the toilet bowl, then began tying him up, he said KIDNAP UNEXPECTED “I thought they would take the money and we would later find a way to free ourselves.” “But then one of them asked if I was Pierre Charles Marion and I said ‘yes.4 “That’s when they put a hood—it was a pillowcase they had brought with them in a bag, along with a rope— and taped it around my neck.“When Miss Yergeau told them not to hurt me, they said they would bring me back soon “I was literally dragged out to my camper van.” Marion testified the men drove for about m hours before stopping to dress him in a twopiece snowmobile suit and to tape his mouth shut.Marion said he was then led about 50 or 60 feet from the van and tied to a tree in “a very uncomfortable position with my head down.” Before leaving, one of the men told Marion not to scream—which would have been difficult with his mouth taped, he said They also told him they would be back soon Marion described one of his abductors as being about five feet eight inches tall and about 30 years old The other was slightly taller and about 50 years old Marion is expected to continue his testimony today QUEBEC (CP» — Federal government plans to in crease Quebec’s representation on an expanded Supreme Court of Canada will likely not do much to redress a con stitutional imbalance.Claude Morin.Quebec’s intergovernmental affairs minister, said Tuesday Morin was commenting on a study he tabled earlier in the national assembly which says that the Canadian constitution, not the judges of the high court, are largely responsible for a tendency in Supreme Court constitutional rulings favoring Ottawa over the provinces “It seems that the rulings of the Supreme Court will generally tend to be favorable to the federal government as long as the court will have to interpret a text which, in its wording as well as in the intentions of its authors, lends itself to a centralizing vision,” the study says.Morin told reporters: “So the number of judges on the court is not important.” The federal government has tabled legislation that would expand the high court to 11 judges from the present nine Under the new arrangement, Quebec would be guaranteed four judges instead of three.TO BE DISTRIBUTED Morin said the study will be made available to other provincial government and likely will come up in discussions at the constitutional conference of first ministers in Ottawa at the end of the month The study, prepared by Gilbert L’Ecuyer.an adviser on federal-provincial relations in Morin’s Romans mob John Paul II VATICAN CITY (AP) — Following in the footsteps of the pope whose name he took.Pope John Paul II has ordered an inaugural mass Sunday instead of a coronation Like John Paul I, the new pope will not don the traditional beehive-shaped tiara for centuries symbolic of his office Instead he will be vested with the white wool pallium or stole signifying his dual offices as Roman Catholic bishop of Rome and patriarch of the Western church.The Vatican said it will announce later whether the mass will be held outdoors in St Peter’s Square, like the inaugural of Pope John Paul I on Sept 3 and the coronation of Pope Paul VI in 1963, or inside St Peter’s Basilica where previous popes were crowned The church’s first Polish pope drove from the Vatican late Tuesday afternoon, less than 24 hours after his election, to see an ailing Polish bishop and other patients in a Rome hospital FIRST OUTING Thousands cheered the new pontiff and policemen stopped rush-hour traffic along the fourkilometre route As traffic backed up.motorists first honked in protest and then got out of their cars to wave when they realized the Pope was on his first outing from the Vatican Riding in an open car.John Paul stood up repeatedly, waved and stretched out his hands and gestured to his driver to slow down when he saw the crowds hurrying to hail him Nurses, doctors and patients mobbed him in the en trance hall of the Gemelli Polyclinic Catholic Hospital in northwest Rome The Pope bent and kissed his Polish compatriot.Bishop Andre Marie Deskur of the Vatican Curia But the 54-yearold prelate was unconscious after suffering a blood clot last Friday “He is a colleague of mine hut above all he is a very dear friend.” the Pope said Then he walked through the men’s cancer ward, pausing at each occupied bed and w heelchair to chat with the patients and bless them Speaking to “my patients, my friends.” on the hospital’s intercom system.John Paul asl^ed them to pray for him department, it the second on the ramifications of con stitutional

satisfy my skeptical outlook Yesterday I had the fortune of meeting another, called the TRS-80 v.Radio Shack, under Luc Lareau set up this momentous confrontation of man vs machine at the Hotel La Reserve After repeatedly assuring me that the TRS-80 would not spin, fold or mutilate me into the cheap seats, Lareau demonstrated that computers can be agreeable after all “A ten-year-old can operate this/’ he kept repeating, so oozing confidence I stepped up to greet TRS-80 Showing off its staggering versatility, Lareau continued, “Housewives, small businessmen and doctors are ail benefiting from this little beauty ” Challenged over the work-eliminating and dehumanizing aspects of computers, Lareau defended his product and emphasized that the TRS-80 simplified work, rather than eliminating it.Carefully following the BASIC (beginners’ all-purpose symbolic instruction code) I began to realize all the computer asks for is perfection Completely agreeable when programmed properly, the TRS-80 can be temperamental when not.A rude, to-the-point “What?” flashed on the screen when I mishandled the program, which can be taken either as a reflection on me or on the intelligence of the average 10-year-old Lareau then pulled out a biorythym program, informing me as to what days I’m at a “high”, emotionally, mentally and physically and what days would be advantageous to stay in bed Insulted that my presence might not be appreciated on certain days, I was relieved to find very few low days Thanks, TRS-80 — who’s to say computers don’t have feelings, too9 2 —'THE SHERBROOKE RECORD — WED.OCT IH.I97H ( business and finance Labor prepares to take partisan stand A.E.Ames & Co.Ltd.Investment Dealers R.R.3 Magog, Que.J1X3W4 Tel: (819)843-8178 Founded 1889 1 Mr.O.R.Macaulay Rep.1 Tel: (819)843-2330 | TORONTO (CP) — Organized labor has learned some hard lessons during the last three years and is prepared to take a strong partisan stand in the next federal election, Dennis McDermott, president of the Canadian Labor Congress, said Monday “Having demonstrated our ability to mobilize, we’ll inevitably become involved in the political arena in the next election,” McDermott told a Canadian Club meeting He said the labor congress, rebuffed at federal government levels since the imposition of price and wage controls, has gained a great deal of insight into high unemployment and other economic ills besetting the Canadian economy He expressed concern that the large number of unemployed people under 25 years of age might turn to an alternative political system in which everyone might suffer Business and labor have come into closer harmony MEMO Wholesale prices increase OTTAWA (CP) — Wholesale prices inncreased by 1.1 per cent in August over July levels, Statistics Canada reported this week The federal agency’s wholesale price index, an indicator of future trends in consumer prices, stood at 610.1, up from July’s 603.3 The index was up 8.1 per cent from a year earlier.The change appears to counter a moderation in inflation seen in September when consumer prices dropped for the first time in seven years and the 12-month increase in the cost-of-living fell to 8.6 per cent from 9 4 per cent in August Alcan workers strike BEAUHARNOIS, Que.(CP) — A wildcat strike by 400 workers protesting the suspension of several fellow employees, including two union officers, halted production Monday at Alcan’s Aluminium Ltd.smelter here.Plant manager Maurice Caron said about 100 employees formed a picket line outside the smelter and prevented the day shift from entering At the same time, workers inside were ordered out and electric power to the electrolysis section was cut.In Montreal, an Alcan spokesman said the smelter, which produces 50,000 short tons a year—five per cent of the company’s Canadian capacity—may have to close indefinitely.Conflict-of-interest bill tabled OTTAWA (CP) — The Liberal government Monday reintroduced its conflict-of-interest legislation designed to keep public officials from using their jobs for private gain The bill was first introduced in the Commons in June, after five years of study and delay, but died when the third session of Parliament ended last week The bill would allow MPs and Senators to have business dealings with the government if a House or Senate committee “considers it just and equitable to do so.’’ In addition.MPs and senators could own up to $15,000 or five per cent of publicly-traded shares in corporations that do business with the government.The legislation also permits parliamentarians to put assets into trusts, althouth the types of trusts have yet to be decided.CNCP applies for rate hikes OTTAWA (CP) — CN-CP Telecommunications has applied to the Canadian Radiotélévision and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) for rate increases that would yield the companies an additional $7.2 million in 1979 The rates of increases vary among the services offered which include Telex, data Telex service, broadband exchange service, private wire service and public message service If approved, the increases would take effect April 1.Nobel prize awarded STOCKHOLM (AP) — Prof Herbert Simon of the United States has won the 1978 Nobel Prize in economic science for his research into the way large organizations such as multinational companies make business decisions, the Swedish Academy of Sciences announced Monday.The 62-year-old professor at the Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pa., also was hailed by the academy for his hroad research in social science fields “Simon would be able to help us understand the process which led to the choice of laureates,” said Prof Erik Lundberg, who heads the Nobel committee for the Swedish academy Simon, reached by telephone at his home in Pittsburgh, said he was “very surprised and pleased’’ at winning the award, worth $165,000.Banks scramble to up rates Canada’s chartered banks scrambled Monday to increase their prime lending rates, leaving many to wonder how high is up The prime—the rate charged to the most credit worthy customers—will climb to 11 per cent from 10‘4 per cent today at most chartered banks Some are waiting until Wednesday to boost the rate, highest since July 23, 1974 when it hit 1112 per cent It follows the setting of a record high rate Friday by Canada’s banking authority, the Bank of Canada, of 10.25 per cent The three-quarters-of oneper-cent jump in the central bank rate was the largest of five increases this year MacEachen questions APEC CHARLOTTETOWN (CP) — Deputy Prime Minister Allan MacEachen questioned Monday some aspects of the Atlantic Provinces Economic Council’s (APEC) development strategy for the 1980’s, saying he was sur prised that those who prepared the study failed to connect national unity with the future of the region’s economy “This naive attitude is surprising enough that I wonder if it actually prevails,’’ he said.“A breakup of confederation would create economic dislocation and uncertainty that would inevitably stunt longterm growth in this region.“Moreover, the prospect of a drastically weakened federal government is more dangerous to this region than any other ” MacEachen emphasized during a speech to APEC’s annual meeting that strong growth in the Atlantic provinces depends largely on a healthy national economy despite their frequently adversary positions, and an “intelligent, meaningful dialogue’’ between the two sides is essential if they are to continue working together.McDermott said “It’s time to let go of the old anachronisms.” Labor stood pretty much alone when it had the “intestinal fortitude’’ to oppose controls, he said “Now, three years later, it is completely vindicated “Everyone woke up They have seen the high degree of inflation, the devalued dollar, the economic stagnation and unemployment.“After the government got rid of controls-its political liability—it decided to call on business and labor to pick up the pieces “How about you two patsies forming a monitoring agent to replace the discredited AIB system, they asked us “Thank you, but no thank you is my reply.” McDermott said the Economic Council of Canada.staffed with bureaucrats, is now responsible for monitoring inflation and labor has no input and no presence CONTROLS AGAIN?And already there is talk about réintroduction of controls, he said, adding that probably “some of the turkeys” who had been on the anti-inflation board are looking for a job “It is more expedient for the government to find a scapegoat than a solution to its problems.“They should devote a little more time to governing than watching Gallup polls ” McDermott criticized proponents of free trade between countries, a practice he described as the trade anthem of multinationals, and said there should be a move instead toward fair trade Economic and political union with the United States would be an offshoot of free trade, he said.ÀJi % ** .A >V ?HÏ-i \ Corporate grocers shrug off complaints OTTAWA (CP) — Corporate grocery spokesmen said Monday that thousands of consumers complain to them each year about food that is infested, sickening, awful tasting or otherwise unsatisfactory.However, they told a consumer services conference workshop, the complaints are few compared to the volume of groceries sold daily and that there has been no dramatic increase in the last few years.They said complaints vary depending on the day, the season, the geographic region, and, added Canada Safeway representative Don Jarvis of Toronto, “whether the moon is full or not.” Jarvis said Safeway gets 800 to 1,000 calls weekly from consumers, some complaining and some merely making inquiries.In an average week the Safeway Stores sell between $40 million and $50 million worth of products to between 1.5 million and 2 million shoppers.Jarvis and George Beatty, representing the Toronto-based General Foods manufacturing company, both recommended consumers bring complaints about food back to the store where the product was purchased.They said this is the quickest way to have the product replaced or a refund granted, a policy both representatives said their companies practice.FOOD INFESTED Beatty said only 33 of 7,000 complaints last year were considered critical and were handled immediately.Examples were infested food and pudding that made a woman and her daughter sick.Beatty said General Foods sent disgruntled consumers about 5,000 free packages of food last year to replace unsatisfactory products.Beatty said General Foods received about 30 inquiries about food prices and about 800 requests about nutrition last year.General Foods got about 1,000 letters containing compliments and suggestions and others with requests for information on pets, facts about the company and educational material for school projects.Complaints rise sometimes after press reports about a product.Recently, for example, an individual got more than $200 from a restaurant owner after blaming a broken tooth on food eaten at the restaurant.Variety 1121 Roger Doueei (above), agronomist at the St.Hyacinthe agricultural research centre, has developed a thick-skinned.square tomato ~ variety 1121.These tomatoes are bright red, don’t burn in the sun, mature quickly and yield from five to 10 pounds per plant.Since 1973, the centre has been directing its energies towards developing better varieties of tomatoes for preserves such as ketchup and tomato sauces.LES TRADUCTIONS CONFORMES * CHARTERED TRANSLATORS French — English * Quality * Service 563-4465 All kinds - Spec.: Marketing and Publicity Petroleum companies parade unsellable natural gas .w:- CALGARY (CP) - Five petroleum companies paraded their unsellable natural gas before the National Energy Board on Monday, pleading for resumption of large-scale exports to the United States The message was the same from Amoco Canada Petroleum Co.Ltd., BP Canada Ltd., Bow Valley Exploration Ltd., Chevron Standard Ltd and Chieftain Development Ltd.All said they have sur pluses of gas because of energy board restrictions on new gas exports.With new export sales, they said, there would be increased cash flow to permit more exploration activity to meet future Canadian needs Amoco Canada led the gas sweepstakes, reporting that it has 1.5 trillion cubic feet lying idle for lack of markets That, an Amoco Canada statement said, is enough to heat all the households of Metropolitan Toronto’s almost two million residents for 10 years.The companies’ message, however, did not escape criticism.CHALLENGES CASE Bruce Willson, spokesman for the Committee for an Independent Canada and a former president of Union Gas Co.Ltd.of Chatham, Ont., used his cross-examination privileges to challenge the petroleum industry’s case at every opportunity.Confronting BP Canada officials, whose brief asserted that energy board bars to new gas sales amount to “needless undermining of the private enterprise system that has served Canada so well,” Willson declared “1 just can’t understand your rationale when we see oil supplies dwindling so rapidly and gas supplies going down so rapidly and prices increasing so rapidly and you say the industry has served Canada well.” Willson concentrated most of his effort on Amoco Canada, which described how confident it is that large reserves of natural gas remain to be found in Alberta.Vice-president Tony Nei-dermayer said the company is backing its confidence with cash, spending 102 per cent of its cash flow in the first half of this year on exploration, development and production But, under Willson’s questioning.Neidermayer noted that later this year Amoco will pay its U.S.parent a dividend on the order of $30 million, lessening the percentage of cash flow devoted to exploration 4-WHEEL DRIVE SUBARU Shipping strike spurs layoffs MONTREAL (CP) Industry officials say the first layoffs as a result of the Great Lakes shipping strike could come as early as the end of the week unless an agreement is reached between the Canadian Lake Carriers Association and 800 striking marine engineers and deck officers The engineers and deck officers, members of the Canadian Marine Officers Union and the Canadian Merchant Service Guild, walked off the job early Monday, paralysing most of the country’s inland fleet at the height of the seasonal rush In Hamilton.Canada Steamship Lines said about 40 freight handlers face possible layoffs “We still have a quarter of the shipping season left,” said a spokesman for the company, “but unless a settlement is reached quickly it will be lost “ A spokesman for The Steel Co.of Canada Ltd in Hamilton said: “There is no immediate effect on our operations, but a prolonged strike could create problems.” In Regina, the second vice-president of the Saskatchewan wheat pool.Bill Marshall, said a strike would have a serious effect on prairie farmers and the Canadian economy in general Marshall said grain should be kept moving while negotiations take place SEEK INTERVENTION In Winnipeg, the Canadian wheat board and the United Grain Growers called for federal intervention to end the dispute before it causes widespread damage to the economy In Montreal.Iron Ore Co.of Canada president Brian Mulroney said if the strike continues for any length of time it will have dire consequences for iron-ore producers on the Quebec-Labrador border In Thunder Bay, Ont., a union leader for 1,500 grain ha ndlers predicted widespread layoffs if the strike lasts into next week Officials in the ports of Montreal, Toronto and Hamilton warned of serious economic consequences if the shutdown of 122 freighters in the Canadian I^ake Carriers Association is a long one Take the

SHERBROOKE RECORD The voice of the Eastern Townships Established February 9, 1897, incorporating the Sherbrooke Gazette ead pollution is not the only issue in this high-stakes struggle between the environmentalists and the industrialists All environmental regulations have come under increased scrutiny after one of Carter’s quiet advisers.Robert Strauss, singled them out as a major cause of inflation This was followed by a backroom skirmish between the president’s economic advisers and safety officials The Occupational Safety and Health Administration tried to set limits on workers exposure to cotton dust This was intended to protect 600.000 textile workers from brown lung disease But Schultze.supported by wage-price adviser Barry Bosworth.tried to water down the standard The backroom fight eventually involved the president himself One safety official later complained that the confrontation with his own White House colleagues “was harder than fighting the industry.” The economic side of the White House won at least a tactical victory The deadline was extended for four years, and the cost of controlling cotton dust was scaled down from $2 7 billion to $625 million The next battle involved pollution control in areas of the country where the air is already clean This time, the wage-price control council intervened two months after the comment period ended But the environmental agency didn’t retreat from its strict standards to prevent the deterioration of clean air The two sides are still feuding over efforts to remove cancer-causing substances from the nations’ drinking water There has already been a scare over the high levels of caricinogens found in the New Orleans drinking supply Similar sniping has broken out in nearly every industry.The White House economists have weighed in at the Interior Department on new standards to control strip mining And there has been White House pressure at the Transportation Department over plans to make the nation’s mass transit systems more accessible to the elderly and handicapped The question of whether all these regulations are worth the inflationary impact has divided the Carter ad ministration into two bitterly opposed factions It is not likely to end anytime soon TU K sm RBROOKK RKUORD — U Kl).OCT.18.1D7H — 5 ‘Boat people’ increasing pressure on nations UNITED NATIONS (CP) — The flood of refugees from Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam, now averaging more than 9,000 a month, is increasing pressure on the international community, now faced with a growing and costly resettlement problem Refugee camps in Thailand, Malaysia and Hong Kong are bursting at the seams However, only about one-third, roughly 3,000, are being resettled each month in France.United States, Canada, Australia and other countries willing to accept them During the first nine months of 1978, about 40,000 have fled Vietnam by boat, reaching safe haven in some Southeast Asian country.Thousands of others have fled by land.FOOD SCARCE Part of the reason is the severe tropical storms of September, the worst in 75 years, which damaged the rice crop to such an extent that only generous foreign help can reduce hunger among the Vietnamese But probably a much larger reason is the reported repression in Cambodia and Vietnam The Paris newspaper Le Monde says the Hanoi-run regime has created another Gulag Archipelago in Vietnam A correspondent for the French newspaper wrote that three years after the downfall of the South Vietnamese Thieu regime, the so-called re-education camps for thousands of former supporters still are full.So are other types of political prisons.The Vietnamese campaign against ethnic Chinese also has added to the refugee exodus as well as the continued killings in Democratic Kamouchea.formerly Cambodia, where a new revolutionary agriculture-based society is evolving And the age-old rivalries between Cambodians and Vietnamese have resurfaced in another border war Canada found evidence to support reports of Cambodian atrocities and urged the United Nations to launch an immediate investigation of the human rights situation in Democratic Kampuchea The Kampucheans told Canada to mind its own business, saying it was a lackey of the United States anyway, going back to the days of the Vietnam war CANADA ATTACKED In a bitter condemnation of Canadian interference in the domestic affairs of another country, the Kampuchean delegate to the United Nations recalled that his country was trying to rebuild after being almost destroyed by the secret U S B-52 bombings of 1969-70 and the ensuing invasion of his country He placed the war-related death toll at more than one million Cambodians External Affairs Minister Don Jamieson said that until Canada and other countries undertook independent investigations.there was lack of hard evidence about the atrocity charges “Therefore, it was possible for people to argue—if it suited their purpose—that these sort of things were propaganda and were exaggerations” But Jamieson explained during his visit to the UN last month that several countries Medicine: Technology fears grow OTTAWA (CP) — Rita O’Reilly died last year at Riverside Hospital after a cancerous tumor was removed from her breast.A coroner’s inquest found Mrs.O’Reilly, 39, died from brain damage due to lack of oxygen because of a defective anesthetic machine.Although a federal bureau of medical devices was established in 1974 to guard against unsafe devices in Canadian hospitals, health officials remain concerned about the effects of rapidly growing medical technology Dr Al K Dasupta, bureau director, says there are more than 250,000 different kinds of devices on the market in Canada.“So there is a tremendous amount of concern on behalf of those who have to use the devices.It is also true there are a lot of devices on the market which simply don’t work and it’s true there are a lot which are unnecessarily hazardous.’’ In its last quarterly report, the health protection branch reported 12 defective medical devices recalled or banned from sale or use from late December, 1977, to April this year.CITES U.S.STUDY DasGupta says studies from the United States show that roughly 30 per cent of medical devices in hospitals may not be up to par.No such studies have been done in Canada.“The fact that there are figures to say that up to 30 per cent may not be adequate is ample proof that there is need to improve the situation.’’ The branch has the authority under the Food and Drugs Act to control the importation, manufacture, distribution and sale of medical devices.Products are generally recalled voluntarily by manufacturers or banned for sale by the health department when it is suspected a device may be hazardous to health, fails to conform to manufacturers claims or doesn’t meet performance standards.“We get concerns fed to us on the average of one per day about defects,’’ says DasGupta And since nearly 90 per cent of medical devices are imported, largely from the United States, manufacturers and distributors must have test results on medical devices available in Canada before products can be sold.DOES NO TESTING But the bureau does not test devices before they go on the market here.“The testing of the device to see that it works is the responsibility of the person who is making it or selling it,” he says.“He claims that his product can do these things and he has to stand behind his claims.We do not believe it feasible to have a government or regulatory agency testing other people’s products and saying they are OK.Editorials from Following is a selection of editorials on current topics, translated by The Canadian Press from the French-language press of Canada.Montreal Le Devoir—Before commenting on the main principles or assumptions governing negotiations which the Quebec finance minister is anticipating with the unionized public and parapublic sector, it behooves us to review the situation within the wider context of the relations between the Parti Québécois government and unionized labor.The Levesque government and the big federations have no choice.They must apply limited and politically-moderate pressures on each other to keep from playing into the hands of the Liberal Opposition.To be sure, even the union leaders who most favor the Parti Québécois political thesis cannot sacrifice the interests of their members; they must negotiate firmly And the more conservative of the Parti Québécois leaders have underlined the peril involved for a government which flirts with the union federations; but when the time comes to add up the score, they will be relieved not to have to go through the wringer which broke the former government’s back On the one hand, therefore, the labor movement must spare a government which is useful to it in the middle of economic difficulties which are making some employers more rigid than ever.On the other hand, the Parti Québécois government cannot scuttle “social peace’’ within its own public and parapublic sector but must find, before the referendum and before the (provincial) elections, if not a new social contract, at least a satisfactory compromise for the state, its employees and the Quebec taxpayers.It is in this context that it is worth while to consider Jacques Parizeau’s statement The government treasurer says no, in advance, to any social peace which costs too much, that is to say, at the price of an increase in income taxes or a delay in economic recovery and development projects which are more than ever imperative in Quebec But the minister says yes to improved working conditions and to whatever flexibility negotiators find suitable.What the overwhelming majority expects this time from negotiations is that there will be no need to pay for further progress by costly disorganization of the public service And the majority expects the whole of the public and parapublic sector to stop being a public burden and to become a more active agent for economic and social Can you imagine the cost of that?” In the case of the anesthetic machine, the device was banned for sale after the defect was discovered.Nearly 3,000 hospitals were quickly notified of the danger by the branch and the manufacturer followed suit by sending warnings to customers about the machine’s defect.Unfortunately for the O’Reilly family, the machine was not modified until after a death had occurred.The bureau does not say how a device can be improved and the manufacturer returned twice before a modified design was accepted.LABELS REVISED “It’s not our function to tell them because we’re not the manufacturer’s designer,” says DasGupta.“But when I’m talking with an engineer and I know what’s wrong.I’m certainly not going to say ‘I know but I won’t tell you.’” Manufacturers of about 50 classes of devices were asked to revise their labelling last year because the information was simply untrue or inadequate.Mandatory standards have been applied to a limited number of devices including condoms, hearing aids and incubators which are relatively stable in design.But the bureau prefers to use standards sparingly, as a last resort, if there have been repeated problems with defects.“They are not necessarily the last instrument for controlling the safety of a product because they freeze technology' and they are expensive,” DasGupta says.With rapidly advancing medical technology and the increasing number of revised and newr devices coming out each year, the bureau allows such products to enter Canada for what is called pre-market review .DATA REVIEWED DasGupta says all scientific data available are reviewed and if there is a potential benefit for a large segment of the population such products as prolongwear contact lenses can be used by physicians who must carefully watch the patient’s reactions.The health protection branch, in co-operation with the Canadian Association of Manufacturers of Medical Devices and the Canadian Medical and Biological Engineering Society, recently held a second workshop in Toronto to discuss possible new standards, cost effects and various issues concerning medical devices “There must be communication among the three for effective interaction and reasonable recognition of benefits and dangers,” DasGupta says.Moreover, he travels around the country talking to medical groups, marketing agents and others who must use devices to explain the bureau’s function and how an effective dialogue should work.the French press recovery.These are historic stakes— Jean-Claude Leclerc (Oct.14) Montreal-Matln—It’s a fight to the finish between the post office department and the powerful union of 24,000 postal workers.As for the department, the bottom of the barrel has been scraped and, if the workers persist in their strike threat, special legislation will f orce them back to work.As for the union, it recommends an unlimited general strike.On the one side as on the other, insults, threats and ultimatums of all kinds are competing with each other Workers’ impatience is so great after 18 months’ unproductive negotiations that the strike has already begun in Quebec and in other parts of Canada before the national call.The postmaster general, for his part, is multiplying his awkward, provocative and even incendiary interventions.We remember that last summer the union had high hopes of the conciliation board’s work to get progress on the issue The results were scanty, not to say depressing The chairman of the conciliation board, Louis Cour-temanche, could only return the negotiating teams to the bargaining table.It seems to us that with a little good faith and without going beyond its wages policy, the government could offer more.We know from a reliable source that the union is open to compromise on wages The latest news is (acting labor) Minister (Andre) Ouellet may be a mediator At first glance, the idea is interesting because he was successful with the letter carriers However, how can we forget that in 1974 Ouellet came a cropper as postmaster general?We can ask ourselves whether in the circumstances and taking the past into account, mediation by Ouellet is the ideal instrument In short.Prime Minister Trudeau was right in a letter which he addressed to the post office workers’ union June 29 when Parliament was getting ready to vote on Bill 45 which prohibited strikes during federal election “The government,” he said, “believes that the process ot collective bargaining, including the right to strike, remains the most efficient and just means to determine the level of wage and working conditions in the public service.” So why not negotiate in good faith and entrust the task to an experienced mediator0—Matthias Rioux (Oct 14).indicated to him they had similar information They felt some form of international action ought to be taken “I think where the difficulty rests is in trying to determine what form that action ought to take I think the No.1 step is the one that’s already under way.namely to bring to bear the indignation and concern of the United Nations and democratic countries with the kind of activities which we know is going on ” Rather than condemning Canada, the Kampuchean government would have been better advised to allow some sort of independent investigation to get all the facts, Jamieson added “The best way for them to prove that we’re wrong is to allow that kind of investigation ” .while others stay to suffer CBC correspondent Sheldon

in today’s election NDP Leader Allan Blakeney, 53, is seeking his third term as premier He has often said his nature makes him more inclined to govern than to sit in opposition and defeat would raise speculation about how much longer he would stay in active politics Liberal leader Ted Malone inherited a party with 15 seats in the legislature and has watched that dwindle to 11 While Malone has been largely a victim of cir- cumstance, his party would have to question whether it picked the best leader in 1976 if Liberal fortunes were to nosedive Dick Collver.leader of the Progressive Conservative

?10 By Oswald Jacoby and Alan Sontag The bidding was not scientific, but it was a fast, exciting, shoot-for-the-moon sort of auction that ended in a sound contract.A beginner would think the contract depended on a diamond finesse, but a more experienced player would realize that the discard of his club loser on the opening lead opened up a second possibility — playing A K of clubs and ruffing the third club in the hope that the suit would divide 3-3.But declarer on the diagrammed hand made the slam even though the diamond finesse was offside and clubs were divided 4-2.He immediately attacked trump, driving out East’s ace.East returned a spade which declarer ruffed.South then drew East’s remaining trumps, played a diamond to dummy’s ace, played the A K of clubs and ruffed a club.Most declarers would now take the diamond finesse and complain bitterly when it lost.South was made of sterner stuff.He realized he had one extra chance, and he took it.He ran off all his trumps.When he led the last trump, South had the trump he led plus the jack-eight of diamonds.West had the queen of clubs and two diamonds.Dummy had the king-10 of diamonds and club seven.East’s hand was immaterial.West had to discard a diamond on the last trump lead.To do otherwise would establish dummy’s club as the 12th trick.Declarer countered West’s discard by pitching dummy’s now worthless seven of clubs.Declarer led the jack of diamonds at trick 12, and when West played low declarer immediately played dummy’s king of diamonds, dropping the queen.Declarer had not seen East’s cards, but he had "seen” West’s.Since West’s last card was known to be the queen of clubs, the diamond finesse could not succeed.By running the trumps and delaying the finesse, declarer had given himself the slight extra margin that in the end proved decisive.(NEWSPAPER ENTERPRISE ASSN ) (Fora copy of JACOBY MODERN, send $1 to: “Win at Bridge, " care of this newspaper, P.O.Box 489, Radio City Station, New York,
