Officials were able to main- tain morning routine amid the tension. Cooks prepared break- fast for other prisoners in the kitchen adjacent to the room where the hostages were held. The prisoners were fed in small groups. This morning, 18 hours after the five officers were seized, a spokesman said the situation football.

But he added he has not changed his opinion that such a step should be preceded by a Commonwealth Prime Ministers conference "if bilateral situa- tions are found not to meet the situation." Hon. R.

Would Avoid Berlin Showdown VANCOUVER (CP)--The Brit- ish Columbia Pharmaceutical Association at one time consid-| ered a plan whereby druggists would handle drugs at cost and charge a professional fee for fill ing prescriptions. The plan, said Douglas Den- holm, registrar of the 1,100- member association, was aban- doned when association solicit-| ors expressed the opinion the move would be illegal because | it involved goods as well as services. He outlined the program Mon- day during a one-day hearing here of the restrictive trade practice ¢ o m m i ssion, looking into the manufacture, distribu- tion and sale of drugs in Can- ada. The commission ends its hearings in Victoria Thursday.

The association said: "Twenty years ago there were -relatively-few drugs prepared in final dosage at the manufactur- er's level. "The basic cost of the ingre- dients was of less significance, while the cost of professional services was a greater propor- tion of the price to the patient. "Now the pharmacist dis- penses a greater number of pre- scription items compounded at the manufacturer's level and as a result the cost of the ingre- dients in relation to the final price has become a greater fac- tor. "There is an increasing trend for physicians to rely on phar macists for information on new products. We believe that in the future the physician will come to require to a growing extent this type of service."
