* yC1 Stanfield warns Trudeau, House not to use blackmail tactics— no compunction about bill holdup OTTAWA (CP> — Conservative Leader Robert Stanfield said Tuesday that his party will have no compunction about holding up the tax change bill, and warned this government not to try blackmail to force it through Parliament Speaking in second-reading debate on the bill.Mr Stanfield told the Commons that the legislation represents a Conservative victory over the government's white paper on taxation—a victory that was still not complete.The bill was “totally incomprehensible'' even to tax experts.Mr Stanfield said, and his most charitable conclusion was that the government didn t know what it was doing His party would give no assurance that it would expedite a measure that looked as if it would cause more problems than it would solve The government would first have to answer a lot of questions.The government need not use the line that the bill must be pushed through to take thousands of lower-income Canadians off the tax rolls, he said That could be accomplished with a system of tax credits separate from the bill which get complete co-operation from his party.The tax bill includes provisions for increased personal tax exemptions and a generally lower rate of corporation income taxes It also would institute a capital gains tax and proposes to tax individuals on such benefits as employer contributions to medical care insurance plans and payments from unemployment insurance The legislation is scheduled to go into effect Jan 1.and Liberal members have estimated that debate—including clause-byclause study in committee-of-the-whole—will not last more than six weeks It had been thought that the Conservatives would not offer sustained opposition because the government had backed off many of the white paper proposals most strongly opposed by them before the budget statement last June But after gloating over the governments retreat from the white paper for the lirst part of his speech.Mr.Stanfield said the tax bill should he rewritten more simply The government was trying to ram a tangled mess of propos als’ through the House.He also suggested the the government had better come up w ith some programs that would deal with the immediate problem of the economy this winter if it expects any co-operation Prime Minister Trudeau, who rarely stays in the House after question time sat through the entire Opposition leader s speech.then left During the speech Mr Stan field said his party would be glad to share the problems that the government had got itself into When Mr Trudeau waved towards the desk beside him.in viting the opposition leader over.Mr Stanfield said he would lirst have to be sure the government was trying to do something We don t want to get involved in doing nothing The government was going to have to answer questions on what effects the bill s measures would have on cooperatives and credit unions, on farmers through its capital gains prove sions and on the ability of Cana dians to invest in their twn economy For the immediate situaion.Mr Stanfield suggested a comprehensive winter works program in co operation with the provinces Dief to return shortly LONDON (CP) - John Diefenbaker said Tuesday he : feels fine and hopes to be hack in the Commons in three weeks The 75-year-old former i prime minister, in hospital for a week in Wrexham.Wales, for a stomach disorder said he expects to fly hack to Canada in a few days The reports I get from ! the doctors are all to the good and they’ll have me hack in Canada soon, he added “I’m feeling j fine—just great I think I ve been very fortunate, he said Diefenbaker was struck with a stomach complaint while vacationing at the Wales estate of Brig Michael Wardell former publisher of the Fredericton Gleaner He was out of bed for the first time Tuesday Lortie is identified as passenger in death car MONTREAL (CP) The nephew of Pierre Laporte, the murdered Quebec labor minister, identified Bernard Lortie Tuesday as the person sitting in the front passenger seat of a car used to kidnap his uncle from his suburban St Lambert home last October Claude Laporte 18 was testifying at Lortie s trial on a charge of kidnapping the labor minister Lortie is to stand trial on a murder charge later Mr Laporte told Court of Queen s Bench he had been playing football with his uncle last Oct 10 when a blue Chevrolet car passed him and stopped beside Mr Laporte some 40 feet away It was about 6 or 6 15 p m at the time, he said “Two men got out of the car.one from the front and one from the back, and surrounded by uncle Thev were armed w ith what seemed to he machine guns I can t really say because their bodies were hiding part of the guns My uncle, taken aback stepped back and then lifted his arms They forced him into the back seat of the car He said the car s licence number was 9J242Q and said he thought it w as a 1968 car Asked by Crown prosecutor Jean-Guy Bollard whether he had seen the face of any of the occupants Mr Laporte a student said yes WENT BV IN CAR’ The passenger in the front because he looked at me when the car went by He then identified Lortie as the passenger Lortie a frail 19 vear-old university student from Gaspe.Que looked bored during the afternoon session and at times feigned sleep One of four men accused of the* mtdnap slaying of the labor minister he refused to defend himself, saying this is not my trial He also refused to appoint a defence lawyer Mr Laporte s nephew was one of four witnesses testifying at the trial The evidence introduced was described by Mr Bollard as secondary evidence photocopies of the orig mal evidence introduced at a previous trial This included fingerprints of the four accused and photos of Raul Rose, his brother Jacques and Francis Simard Both Raul Rose and Simard have been convicted of non-capital murder and sente nced to life imprisonment They are to he tried for kidnapping Get 18 Jacques Rose, the fourth accused, is scheduled to appear for trial on the murder charge Oct 12 Inshlv IihIuij \ 3 u7 Today's Chuckle 1 It’s sad to watch people 8 squandering money — and 10 ^3 know you ran'! help them 6 Births, dealt Classified Comics Editorials F inancial Sports Television Women Attica hostages were shot, not knifed to death ATTICA.NY (AR) A county medical examiner dis closed Tuesday that hostages slain in the storming of not torn Attica prison all died of gunshot wounds and none of them died of slashed throats as officials had maintained for 24 hours Hours after the medical ex animer s report.State Correc tions Commissioner Russell Os wald conceded that the official version that knife wielding eon victs slew most of the hostages was erroneous Oswald did not say how tin* hostages were shot Oswald also described the types of weapons found during a search of the prison since control was regained Although another correction official said earlier crude guns were found, no guns were listed in Oswald’s recital, in which he listed among hundreds of home made weapons molotov cock tails, sharpened shears steel and metal pipes, tear gas guns and projectiles, swords, holes straight razors and spiked base ball bats Oswald met with reporters at the prison late Tuesday night He told them he agreed with the report of Monro County medical examiner John F Kdland that the hostages were shot but refused to answer questions “There were no cut throats or any kind of multilation.' Kdland reported after examining eight of the nine bodies.A ninth hostage already had been est ah lished as a gunshot victim 41 DEAD The nine hostages were among 41 persons within the prison who lost their lives during the four day rebellion according to a revised state corrections department list All eight cases died of gun shot wounds.Kdland later told a news conference There was no evidence of slahsed throats There were two types of missiles found in both the* inmates and hostages Some were buckshot Some were larger calibre missiles In explanation how the hos tages died from gunshot wounds.Oswald said the first and most obvious answer is tin* fact that inmates dressed all hostages in prison garb to insure difficulty in identifying prisoners and guards The hostages he added, were also used as shield and forced forward into gunfire Oswald said that one reason for the erroneous report was that several correction officers had stated they saw hostages drop and their throats appeared to be cut He said the 1 241 inmates who participated in the rebellion are confined now m three cellhloc ks in “highly undesirable over crowding MEDICAL INFORMATION His description of the hostage deaths Oswald said, was based on the information supplied by the medical examiner Oswald differed with Kdland in insisting th.it some of the dead hostages bone marks of knives Oswald sam mey had slashes on throats and hacks of necks, punctures, apparent broken arms black eyes and abrasions in nearly every hostage The hostages liberated alive all had been held at knifepoint too.Oswald said Everyone of the 38 hostages was held with a knife at their throat and a crowbar at their head waiting to he killed, he said “Each hostage was assigned one executioner Oswald aid I rn not familiar with

unattainable in practice We have to bear this in mind when we talk about the interdependence of our economy and that of the U S Intimate and inextricably intertwined as that mutual dependency obviously is the degree of its importance to the two uniquely linked countries is far from the same although they happen to exchange goods of roughly the same value While it is true Canada and the U S are one another s best customers we need the U S market far more than the Americans need ours This is not because of some conspiracy or sheming on the part of the Americans but because the U S has a much larger population which-produces far more goods and services than does Canada So although the trade across the famous undefended border now amounts to approximately $11 billion each way per annum what we sell to the U S represents close to 70 per cent of our total exports while American sales to Canada account for only some 25 per cent of total U S exports On top of this trade assymetry of the interdependence of the two economies a far greater percentage of jobs depends on exports in Canada than m the U S due to our relatively small market Since most Canadians want a standard of living comparable to that across the border and since our internal market cannot generate the colume of economic activity necessary for supporting the American life style we must sell whatever is marketable in both finished products and raw materials The fact that we sell 70 per cent of what we have to offer to one market makes us extremely dependent on the health of that market Why then don t we diversify our trade'' This question is raised every time the U S economy gets out of kilter and our access to the big American market becomes temporarily more difficult ft is a holty discussed question right now for the surcharge President Nixon slammed on imports makes our access to the U S market more difficult But much of the discussion is meaningless drivel No other country in the world the suddenly aroused advocates of trade diversification point out depends so heavily on one single market as Canada does Leaving aside the coercive economic relations of the Soviet bloc this is quite true Britain for example places about 13 per cent of her total exports in the US.West Germanv It and France approximately 7 per cent How did it happen and why don t we do something about it*' Why as one commentator put it last week are we so dependent on the American market — a mere 200 million people in a world of something like four billion*' WTiy don t we scatter our trade in small batches so that when one particular market flops or becomes difficult we would have all the others to work in0 There are no simple answers to these questions except the basic commercial verity that selling requires effective « money-backed demand Its is very well to say there are billions of potential customer for our goods in the world But how many of them are able or willing to pay the price for which our goods must be sold to cover production transportation marketing and all the other cost factors that determine the selling price0 Contemplation of this question alone would indicate how limited our potential export outlets really are For by insisting on a standard of living comparable to the higest in the world our cost structure cannot be competitive with that of countries with a lower living standard The higher the labor content in our products the less competitive their selling price is bound to be in countries with lower wages So our trade naturally flows into the U S market not only because it is next door and poses no shipment problems but because its cost price structure is virtually the same as ours Many of our finished products do not in fact have another marketing outlet Below this North American cost-price pinnacle is a fairly large group of industrialized countries with a lower sundard of living They have little difficulty in diversifying their trade because their costs and price hover around a mutually-acceptable level To penetrate these markets to a degree that would diversify our trade we would have to slash our prices and ajust export production to more modest tastes Since we cannot cut prices without lowering our standard of living we are stuck with the U S.market as the major outlet for our exports Under these circumstances, the only sensible thing to do is to form a common continental market with the U S.READER FORUM Opposed to I COMMENT ^ THE SHERBROOKE y RECORD/ The voice of the Ka stern 7 own ships t k rtiruif * V MV'" irw or por^ttni' tb*
