Not Likely RED DEER (CP) -- Women hold the balance of power in Canada, Premier Ernest Man- ning of Alberta told the Alberta Social Credit Women's Auxilia- ries Monday. "This does not mean a num- jerical majority, it means jwomen are in a position where they possess power beyond their numerical strength," he said He told delegates to concen- trate on worthwhile goals and to remain united. "Women tend to become in tense over secondary issues,' he said. 'But if you have def- inite and positive objectives, there is no limit to what you can do." The premier said women hold power in economic and financial fields because they spend most of the money on consumer pur- chases and they decide how money will be spent on recrea- tion, travel and entertainment. "Women have the greater in- fluence on the rising generation because they spend more time with children during their form- ative years," he added.

To Be Checked! | "Spartan" Said and in June, 1964, 1,272 were By DAV EMcINTOSH OTTAWA (CP)--Federal au- thorities, including cabinet min- isters, now are giving the most serious attention to the possibil- ity of an about-turn in long- term Canadian nuclear weapons policy. A policy switch to a continu- ing, nuclear role in the North Atlantic alliance might be un- dertaken, sources say, as one means of trying to prevent an outright break between France and the United States and to induce France to take a greater part in alliance strategy. Informants emphasized that no definite new policy has yet taken form and that no deci- sions have been taken. But even behind-the-scenes discussions were an indication -Jof the seriousness with which the government regarded the split between the U.S. and France and the extent to which Canada might be prepared to go to heal the breach. When the Liberal government took office in April, 1963, it said its adoption of nuclear war- heads for the armed forces was simply the carrying out of com- mitments entered into by the previous Conservative adminis- tration. Since then, government spokesmen, including Prime Minister Pearson, ve indi- cated that Canada would with- draw from this nuclear role as soon as decently possivic. Britain has proposed changes in the U.S.-proposed NATO sea- borne nuclear force of some 25 merchant ships armed with 200 Polaris missiles, a proposal to which France has taken keen exception The thinking here is that if Britain proposes putting its en- tire independent nuclear strike force under NATO command, France might be persusded to do the same if other alliance members were also willing to go along. Consequently, officials are discussing here what action Canada might take under such circumstances. Moreover, External Affairs Minister Martin has indicated that Canada wants to =2e Paris and Washington settle down to some serious talks and that this country wouldn't object to play- ing a mediation role. Mr._Martin on Sept. 15 began what has turned out to be a se- ries of statements on the need for greater sharing of nuclear control in NATO and closer co- BRIDE AND GROOM HURT KITCHENER (CP) -- It was anything but a happy wedding day for Margaret Ellen Em- berson of Guelph and: Henry Ernest Rempel of Kitchener. The bridegroom's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Henry P. Rempel of Kitchener were on their way to the ceremony in Guelph Satur- day when they were injured in a head-on collision. Mrs. Rem- pel was rushed to hospital in Guelph. Mr. Rempel, also injured, now is at home. His son's honeymoon to the-southern United States and Mexico has been postponed until after Christmas so he can run Mr. Rempel's upholstering business in Kitchener, At the reception at a Guelph motel the bride's sister, Mrs. Joseph Felice of Toronto, broke her fingers in a door, and was rushed to hospital. The bride's brother, John Em- berson of Toronto, was driving a group including the newly- weds, in his new car after the reception when he was in an accident, All were wearing seat belts, and the only one hurt was the bridegroom who is limping from shin bruises.

PERSONNEL OFFICER CITY HALL, OSHAWA THE JOHN HOWARD SOCIETY John Howard was an eighteenth century Englishman who spent much of his life trying to change prison conditions in his country. In Canada groups of citizens honor his name by organizing services to ex-prisoners, by helping © to bring about changes in our penal system and by informing the public about the prob- lems of prisons and prisoners. H. MURRAY SPARKES President WHAT YOUR COMMUNITY CHEST MEANS TO YOU!! Today the conditions of prisons In Can- ada are humane and have vastly changed but the problems of prisoners' lives remain com- plicated and difficult. Men who break the law Gre sometimes fined or placed.on probation by the courts. Most men who commit crimes go to prison to be punished through the loss of their freedom for any period of time up to life. Ordinary people feel the need to be protected from the criminal and from the harm he might cause. Social workers in the John Howard Society have come to know that prisoners are men who have not. usually had normal family ex-' periences and opportunities. They know them as men who have failed many times before to accept the rules of home, school, church and work. Before they have gone to prison they have probably become social problems. Prisoners returning from imprisonment have many problems. They are often shunned as trouble-makers and many have lost their homes. They have difficulty in fitting back into society, The John Howard Society of Ontario has been working since 1929 with ex-prisoners, meeting emergency needs for food, shelter, clothing and tools and offering them counselling services. This. Community Chest service also attempts to tell the public about the problems of prisoners and to seek new ways of correcting criminal behaviour.
