MEDICARE AN ISSUE A major issue on which all three parties are moving in dif. ferent directions is medical care insurance, The government this year brought in a draft: bill-- now being studied by an Inde- pendent committee--to provide for services through private in- surers on a voluntary basis, with the government supervising standards and charges.

Kennedy himself said at his press conference Thursday that he would stress the development of the United Nations as an in- strument for strengthening eace and imternational co-op- ration.

Commenting on the new jcharges against him by the SIU, Mr. Justice Norris said in an in- terview at his home in Pitt Mea- dows, B.C.: "My report speaks for itself. "The proper place for the SIU to make these charges was be- manage the affairs of the na- tion we cannot allow him the right to determine the manner in which his trade union is to be managed." : The booklet says that nowhere in his report does Mr, Justice Norris suggest that SIU officials are holding office illegally or do not have the support of the members. "What he is saying, in effect, is that he doesn't like the offi- cials of the union, that he does not approve of the decision of the membership reflected in the vote. "He proposes to annul the will of the sailor and to impose upon him the rule of a trustee. . . . "If the decisions of the mem- bers are annulled and are re- fore me.

"This is' all propaganda." SIU INDICTED The Norris report was a sear- ing indictment of the SIU and its president, Hal C. Banks. The major recommendation in the report was that Canadian mari- time unions be placed under a trusteeship. Legislation is to be presented to Parliament to implement the report shortly after it recun- venes in two weeks. The union booklet fired its biggest salvos at the trusteeship recommendation, which would affect the SIU and its two rivals --the Canadian Maritime Union (CLC) and the Canadian Broth. erhood of Railway, Transport and General Workers (CLC), A trusteeship as suggested by Mr, Justice Norris would oust the SIU leaders and take over|i. the union finances.

The election is revolutionary in more ways than one. The new Parliament, instead of being filled with rich industrialists and powerful land barons, will include workers, farmers, mid- dle-class civil servants and pos- sibly a few women. A new electoral law has de- creased abuses of past elec- tions. No longer will an Iranian be able to vote half a dozen times, and no more ballots will be cast on behalf of animals, babies or villagers who died years ago. Determined to form a Majlis of the new power bloc forming in Western Europe. : It has strong hopes for the future of the Commonwealth as a third western power with Eu- rope and the United States and adds that for Britain to become © side-tracked into the Common Market "is to sacrifice a" unique desiny." The pamphjet reflects only the views of the six authors, headed by Canadian-born Leon- ard Beaton, formerly one of" Fleet Street's top common mar- ket correspondents and now di- rector of studies at the Insti- tute for Strategic Studies. A previous Bow Group pam- phiet, published before the breakdown in Brussels last Jan- uary in negotiations for Brit- ain's entry into the six-nation Common Market formed by . France, West Germany, Italy, . Belgium, Luxembourg and The . Netherlands, argued forcefully» for British membership. Economically, says the pam- plet, Britain can achieve as much or more expansion, by maintaining Commonwealth - free entry and pressing for lower tariffs during the Kennedy round of General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade negotiations. In tones more closely echoing Labor party policy than the of- ficial tory line, the pamphlet lauds the Commonwealth as a body that '"'has been consistently underrated" both in terms of ° trade and in "the extent of mu-» tual concern for each other's welfare." f It advocates an action com- mtitee for the Commonwealth made up of a small number of leading people from each coun-* ty. 4 that will back its reform pro- grams, th government of Prime Minister Assadullah Alam has prevented the oppo- sition from campaigning.
