(CP) -- A 13- year - old boy, arrested Friday} following an intensive 11 - day investigation by 'police, is to ap- pear in juvenile court Monday charged with the murder in the} strangulation of Sylvia Finks, 7. The body of the blonde girl was found hanging by her coat belt in the attic of an aban- doned store in central London Nov. 13. She disappeared sev- eral hours earlier when her mother, Mrs. Ernest Finks, sent her to buy a newspaper. The boy, charged as "being a juvenile delinquent in that he did commit murder," was ques- tioned repeatedly during the in- vestigation.

'"Let's recog- nize that it's a symptom of. a deep and disturbing problem." | "We'll ignore such movements; at our peril... . Quebec's sepa-| ratist movement arose from a justifiable feeling that the French-Canadian nation has not been given equal status and equal recognition. The people of English speaking Canada must recognize that . and enter into the spirit of Confed-| eration." A second factor was the grow- ing feeling in Quebec that the control of the means by which the people live had fallen into) the hands of other people, that) they had less and less to say} about the means by which they live.

At war's Dictenbakers Delay Possible On 'War Threat MOSCOW. (Reuters)--Russia announced today it now '"'con- siders it possible' to postpone military talks it sought with Finland on the alleged war threat posed by West Germany and its Scandinavian allies in the Baltic. The announcement came just after Finnish President Urho Kekkonen returned here by air on his way home from Novosi- birsk, where he conferred Fri- day with Soviet Premier Khrushchev. The Russian statement said: "The Soviet government consid- ers it possible for the time being to postpone military con- sultations with Finland which it had proposed." Russia proposed the defence consultations in an Oct. 30 note to Finland in which it accused West Germany and its allies of threatening the Soviet Union through Finland. Kekkonen's talks in the Siber- ian city were preliminary dis- cussions, The Soviet announcement said Khrushchev considered it essen- tial to hold military Nin: | As he headed home he was assured of another term as Fin- land's president. In the Finnish capital, former jchief justice Olavi Honka Fri- |day withdrew from the January |presidential election in which he stood a good chance of beat- ing Kekkonen, long known for his personal good relations with the Kremlin. Honka, a Social Democrat jwhose candidacy won support from four centre and right-wing parties, said 'the good of the fatherland" made his with- drawal necessary. Two other candidates, left - winger Emil Skog and Communist P. Aitio, were still in the race but Kek- konen's re-election was assured, Kekkonen, a member of Fin- land's Agrarian party, called the election after receiving Rus- sia's Oct. 30 note. The move |was followed Thursday by a call from the legislature speaker, Social Democrat Karl August Fagerholm, for Kekko- nen's continuance in office be- cause of 'exceptional circum- stances." uneasiness and a chosis" in Scandinavia and therefore it would be better to postpone the talks. : Khrushchev replied that be- cause of Kekkonen's political experience, his goodwill ability to maintain Finland's neutral policy, Russia would put off the military consultations. Kekkonen arranged to take the night train to Helsinki after spending several hours in the Kremlin following his arrival from Siberia. In Western Newfoundland CORNER BROOK, Nfld.

Quebec Federation Nixes Separatism MONTREAL (CP) -- The an- nual convention of the 250,000- member Quebec Federation of Labor (CLC) Friday adopted a resolution saying separatism is no solution to the problems fac- ing French-speaking Canadians. Nearly 500 delegates voted and all but seven were in favor of the resolution. It was drafted by the QFL's executive body. Raymond Lapointe, an official of the United Steelworkers of America (CLC), said that if Quebec seceded from confeder- ation the living standard of Que- becers would fall and a fascist state might possibly emerge. tions under the 1948 defence pact between the two countries. But, the statement said, Kek- konen pointed out that defence talks at this time might lead to "war psy- and| Cabinet May Get Transport ~ Body's Advice _ OTTAWA (CP) -- A new na- tional transport tribunal may be established to advise the fed- eral cabinet on policy decisions involving all forms of transpor- tation in Canada.

The idea of a special co-ordin- ating agency for transport was advocated in several submis- sions to the six-man commis- sion during its 18-month public study of Canada's transport troubles. In its first report, made pub- lic last April, the commission indicated a need for some ag- ency to pursue special research into various aspects of transpor- tation -- particularly in seeking out transport costs as they af- fect freight rates.
