(AP Wirephoto) PM WILSON: "U.K. Defence Role Position Preserved" LONDON (CP)--Prime Min- ister Harold Wilson, arriving home Thursday night from Ot- tawa and Washington, said he found wide acceptance for Brit- ain's world - wide role on de- fence matters but he had given nothing away in his talks with President Johnson. "We have preserved our po- sition," W: told a BBC tele- vision questioner at 'Manchester where his plane was diverted by fog from London. Wilson sought to show there was no reason for discontented rumblings among left - wingers ef his own Labor party over his discussions in Washington regarding the United States al for a multilateral nu- clear force. But a left - wing spokesman, Ian Makardo, long - time mem- ber of Parliament, said on TV just after Wilson spoke that the premier would break his elec- tion 'contract' with the party if he dropped opposition to the MLF. Wilson is scheduled to brief his cabinet today and on Sat- urday to address the annual Labor party conference in Brighton. FINDS SUPPORT Wilson made only a brief ref- erence to his talks with Prime Minister Pearson in Ottawa, saying in reply to a question that he thinks there was a "clear degree" of support for the British aims.

A Belgian source said Spaak would recount events that led up to the Belgian-U.S, mission which rescued some 1,700 whites held hostage by the rebels. Spaak was expected to em- phasize that Belgium brought and rebel leader Christophe Ghenye together last summer in a vain attempt to end the revolt. Both Spaak and U.S, authori- ties have insisted that the Stan- leyville mission was not a mili- tary operation but was purely humanitarian, to save the lives of European men. wontien and children held captive. The Belgian minister has stressed that the quick with- drawal of the paratroops was concrete proof of the humani- tarian nature of the mission, He has accused the Saviet Union of resorting to "cold war tac- tics' in charging that the Bel- gian action reflected colonial aspirations. , SPEECHES SHOCK Since the Congo debate be- gan Wednesday, several African Nations haye accused the 60 Autos Get Tires Slashed HAMILTON (CP)--Reports of tire. slashings in the West Park Avenue area poured into police headquarters Thursday follow- ing what Assistant Police Chisf John Arno called the worst case of malicious damage he has ever seen here, Morality Inspector Arthur Robson said Thursday night the department was so busy answer- ing calls to the area that it lost count of the number of carts involved. He said at least 60 tires had been punctured. Police said they believe a specially made tool resembling an ice pick was used, The tires had up to four holes punched in them by the vandals. Tax Fraud Man Sentenced Today MONTREAL (CP) -- Charles Valiquette, 60, a Montreal con- tractor, is scheduled to be sen- tenced today for fraud in what the investigators here called the biggest tax evasion case ever prosecuted by the federal revenue department. He has pleaded guilty to fail- ing to report $3,238,354 in in- come from 1947 to 1960, de- frauding the federal govern- income tax. He, headed the Provincial Montreal sessions court heard the case Nov. 28 in judges' chambers because of a short- age of courtrooms, Such cases are generally held in public, federal investigators said. Valinquette faces sentencing on two summary conviction fraud charges and 12 indict- ment cases, The latter have @ mandatory penalty of not more than five years and not less than two months each, as well as any fine. Federal investigators said the revenue department will be able to recover a considerable amount of the tax money owed because Valiquette owns sub- projects in the Lake St. John area. Federal investigators said the evasion was discovered by comparing amounts declared by the province in public ac- counts with the income reported by Valiquette.

By HAROLD MORRISON Canadian Press Staff Writer The new Soviet leaders ap- pear to be encouraging Presi- dent Johnson and other Western leaders to move towards the summit by paving the path with relaxing gestures, includ- ing planned reductions in Soviet military spending. Because details of Soviet budgets are not open to West- ern inspection, there is_ still some doubt in thé West that the Russians will actually cut ar- maments by the announced $600,000,000 next year. But Johnson cannot dismiss the arms-cutting decision an- nounced by Premier Alexei N. Kosygin as an empty gesture. When Nikita Khrushchey was toppled from power, many Western authorities concluded that those in the Kremlin who were pressing for a big arms build-up had finally succeeded in getting their way. Kosygin seems to be follow- ing instead the Khrushchev peaceful coexistence line. He noted that the United States is trimming its defence spending and concluded this is a positive step "toward lessening of inter- national tension." Trimming of Soviet and American defence budgets are not acts which by themselves could lead to the summit. The Americans have followed the line that there must be fruitful negotiations first in the diplo- matic valley before the leaders scale the heights.

Drs. Donald Balfour and Mel- vin Henderson were the first Canadians to join the Mayo brothers. Dr. Balfour was born in Toronto in 1882 and worked at the Mayo Clinic from 1909 until 1947, when he retired. He died in 1963. Dr. Henderson was a year younger than Dr. Balfour. He joined the Mayos about the same time as 'Dr. Balfour.. He retired in 1950 and died in 1954. He had been born in St. Paul, Minn., but went to Canada at an early age and took out cit- izenship. The oldest living Canadian connected with the Mayo Clinic is Dr. James Masson, 83; born in Owen Sound, Ont. "When he'began to practise general surgery," the CMA Journal says, "Dr. Masson en- tered what now seems to have been the heroic era of surgery. "Blood transfusion was known, but methods of carrying it out were primitive or even theoretical. There were no drugs to prevent the formation of blood clots after operations; no swift-acting compounds to prevent or treat post-operative infections... . "In the early days, surgeons operated on a full. schedule for six days a week." The present head of physiol- ogy at the Mayo Clinic is Dr. Charles F. Code, 54, bom in Winnipeg.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) -- Re- member |Quin$4=$he little In- dian orphan that wanted? Quince got a mother and father Thursday and is en route to his new -- and first -- home where he'll have a sister to play with. Quince's story started Sept. 30 when Miss Sally Matlock, ex- ecutive director of the Protes- tant Home for Babies, disclosed that 25 couples had turned down Quince for adoption because they wanted children "like us," not an Indian, The Associated Press carried a story about Quince's plight and soon the orphanage was de- luged with adoption offers. "There were 2,500 responses in all," said Miss Matlock. Names are not disclosed by agency in keeping with Louisiana law regarding adop- tions. When the parents came Thursday to pick up Quince, they brought the Indian child's new sister, a dark-eyed beauty of 15 months, also a full-blooded American Indian. Miss Matlock said the new parents are interested in Indian culture, history and customs and both speak Indian lan- guages.
