And Mr, Justice T. G. Norris, who is conducting the searching investigation of labor strife, has indicated .he'll hear pertinent testimony in almost any lan- guage--if necessary. But Tuesday, when the SIU insisted that French be used for a fluently bilingual witness, the Vancouver jurist showed some impatience, He granted the union the right to present evidence in French, bringing in a translator to in- terpret the testimony; just as he provided a translator last week SIU Gives Its Side Of Story For Probe for some Greek-speaking SIU members. But he also acctised the SIU of trying to obstruct his inquiry, slow down the proceedings and create a cause celebre over the language issue. "You are trying to make headlines,'"' he told SIU counsel Joseph Nuss. Mr. Nuss insisted that Ber- nard Boulanger, $15,000-a-year administrator of the Canadian Seafarers' welfare plan, be al- lowed to give his evidence in French, "If you as counsel. . . give| me your word of honor that this| witness in your opinion needs an} interpreter, then you will have it,"" said Mr. Justice Norris. "I can transmit to the com- mission that this winess wishes to testify in French, that his SPRINGHILL, N.S. (CP)--A diversified industrial and con- struction program is lifting the icloak of pessimism that en- |veloped this community after a series of mining and fire dis-| asters in the late 1950s, } Since 1959, the year the north- ern Nova Scotia community of |5,600 began recovering from its jeconomic ills, three manufactur- ling plants, a food processing plant, a new coal mine and a {minimum security prison farm |have been located in the town. Construction will soon yield a Inew hospital, a vocational tschool, a federal building and a groceteria. Work is to start soon jon a 450-inmate medium secur- lity institution costing $40,000,- 1000, double the size originally planned. | Although these projects should leventually provide direct em- |ployment for at least 400 per- sons, the town will need more industries to ensure stability. Unemployment is still heavy. "No stone is being left un- turned,"" says Mayor Stanley 'ood. 'We have reasons to be teful for what has happened so far.

No. 4 colliery, claiming 39 lives. The mine was closed, Late in 1957 a $1,500,000 fire wiped out part of the business section and in 1958 an earth tremor in excess of $5,000 for the 70 em- ployees. Dominion Steel and Coal Corporation, parent organ- ization of the Cumberland com-| pany, relinquished the mineral | rights after the disasters, Much of the work of attract- ing new industry was done by|5 Industrial Estates Ltd., a Nova| Scotia crown corporation, and its subsidiary, Springhill De-| velopment Corp. Ltd. | Springhill development was} given an initial allotment of $1,000,000 and a broad field of negotiating inducements. It has been to assist four new indus- tries: Surette Battery Co. Ltd., Springhill Homes and Supplies Ltd., Springhill Refractor- ies Ltd, and a new $250,000 frozen food plant for C. M. Mc- Lean of Charlottetown. Total employment is about 75 but an- other 150 will eventually get part - time work at the food plant. The minimum security institu- tion, located on the site of the abandoned pitheads, has a staff} of 40, mostly displaced miners. The original plan for the me- dium security prison called for a staff of 125 and a $500,000 an- nual payroll, Doubling the size will increase the staff but be- cause a grade 10 education is required for staff members it will not directly help many of Springhill's unemployed. mother tongue is French and) that in communicating he feels more at ease and expresses himself better in French," said Mr. Nuss. "Well," said the judge, "we will have it." Raymond Robichaud, sen. ior parliamentary interpreter, translated Mr. Boulanger's an- swers to questions in English from Mr. Nuss. Then the SIU lawyer decided that he should also ask his questions in French even though the judge had suggested that English be used whenever possible to speed up the inquiry: "If you want to go along that way, you go ahead, but I have said that this is going to slow the whole thing up and it isn't helpful,"' said Mr. Justice Nor- Tis, | "I have the greatest respect for the witness" desire to speak in his mother tongue, That is spect it is not your mother tongue at all." Stock Market Bounces Back In Brisk Trade TORONTO (CP)--The stock market bounced back from Monday's buffeting to post a sharp gain amid brisk trading Tuesday. Industrials and base metals both climbed strongly, gaining more than two points each. Golds and western oils each slipped slightly. In banks Nova Scotia rose 14, Royal % and Toronto-Dominion and Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce each .% Steels also strengthened, with Algoma ahead 1% and Atlas and Dominion Foundries and Steel both up %. Other gainers included Inter-| provincial Pipe -Line,. up ,% Power Corporation, ahead one point, and Trans-Canada Pipe- line, ahead \%. Falconbridge spearheaded the base metals' rise, jumping 2% to 55%. International Nickel climbed one point, while Nor- anda gained % to 31% after "The right exists -- whether it is my mother tongue or not," insisted Mr. Nuss, who is fluent} in both English and French. | The question and answer pro- cess began again--in French, with translation each way. | Sometimes the witness slipped up--and started to reply in English, then stopped and re verted to French. The language issue grew hot! again when J. A.
