2 THEOSHAWA TIMES, Thursday, January 14, 1965 FRONT WALL COLLAPSES At the height of the disas- trous fire which yesterday morning destroyed . the 95- year-old Queen Hotel in Charlottetown, firemen stay well clear when the first section of the front wall in the vicinity of the dining room tumbles into the street.

A club located to the west and a residence to the east both sustained extensive smoke and water damage with the latter getting some light fire damage. --(CP Wirephoto) Sukarno JAKARTA (AP) -- President Sukarno called today for a new investigation by an African - Asian commission or by the United Nations of whether the people of North Borneo want to remain in Malaysia. Sukarno said he would abide by the decision of either group and added, '"'am I not peace- ful?" "I am for a peaceful solution to the Malaysia issue,,"' The told reporters, '"'but let us in- vestigate the real feelings of the people of North Kalimantan."

Nearly half a million Malay- sians have volunteered as coast-| guards and skywatchers, and vigilantes have given first warn- ing of every Indonesian com- mando raid so far on the Ma- layan Peninsula. Tun Abdul Razak, deputy prime minister and defence minister, has said the govern- ment planned to arm 40,000 home guards in remote beach and jungle areas. Surplus arms were expected to be sought in Britain and New Zealand. Government sources have dis- closed that vigilante units on the southwest coast, scene of! areas later. ARE ON PATROL Vigilantes at Carey Island, 12 miles off Kuala Lumpur's Port Swettenham, have been ordered to patrol round the clock instead of only at night. The government has started basic military training for some guards on other larger islands off the east and west coasts. In Singapore Wednesday the 50,000-ton British aircraft car- rier Eagle arrived to join the Far East fleet. The carrier's jet fighter bombers touched down on the island base. (In Jakarta, a spokesman for the Indonesian Navy said the Eagle would be sunk if she dared start a war.) Britain began rapid reinforce- ment of Malaysia in late De- cember claiming a threatening build-up of Indonesian forces on the Malaysian frontiers.

Accounts of various telephone calls, long or short, menacing or mysterious, stream through the more than 1,500 pages of testimony like a flood tide. Montreal lawyer Pierre La- montagne, who has testified that he was offered a $20,000 bribe to agree to the release, on bail of narcotics smuggling suspect Lucien Rivard, ,has said he was put under pressure by telephone. He has said that he received threatening and blackmailing calls even while he was on holi- days last July at Chicoutimi, Que. The RCMP monitored an Aug. 20 call between Mr. Lamon- tagne and Raymond Denis, then executive assistant to Immi- gration Minister Tremblay. They prepared to monitor an- other between Mr. Lamontagne and Montreal Liberal MP Guy Rouleau but Mr. Rouleau didn't call at the appointed time. CHECKS CALLS Commission Counsel Andre Desjardins is still trying to pin down who made the calls to Mr. Lamontagne at Chicoutimi. Wednesday he even ques- tioned Eddy Lechasseur, 33- year-old friend of Rivard, about the location of telephones in the rest rooms at Maxime's Bar here. Lechasseur testified about a) call he made from: Maxime's to Raymond Daoust, lawyer for Rivard. Mr. Desjardins pur- sued relentlessly. Lechasseur said he_ had stayed all night with one Linda Dumont but he didn't remem- ber whether he had made or received telephone calls at her residence. At another point, Lechasseurr said Mrs. Rivard was calling Mr. Daoust "10 times a day" about bail for her husband, but the lawyer rarely answered her calls. Still not cleared up is the Dorion Witnesses Had "Hot' Phones Mr. Daoust said -he made to one Guy Masson at Hull, Que. In the same cagetory is a call said to have been made from murder suspect Robert Gig- nac's office to the Commons of- fice of Mr. Denis. There has been no testimony--as yet--as to who made the call or who recbived it. a call said to have been made which summoned a "Mr. Denis" to the motel where Gig- nac was drinking beer. Later, back in Montreal, Gig- nac complained to Masson, a sometime employee and part- ner of his, about a reputed $412 telephone bill for one month. Who was "Bob" or "Gingras" who, Mr. Lamontagne. said, called him in Chicoutimi with a threat about things Mrs. La montagne wouldn't want to hear? Mr. Daoust has said that even with a telephone at his restaurant table during lunch, he had to make 20 or 25 calls every evening from his office matter of a telephone call which to keep abreast of things. | CALGARY (CP)--Ernest Eric Bancroft, 32 - year - old unem- ployed electrician, has been sen- tenced to four years in peniten- tiary on a reduced charge of manslaughter in the beating death of Eleanor Andruso, 35, a waitress.

Cairns o f Alberta Su- preme Court that he had tied and gagged Miss Andruso dur- ing the early hours of June 9 last. He said he struck the woman with his belt and later removed the gag.

RIVARD GAVE (Continued from Page 1) had been good friends for a long time. Mrs. Rivard had told him) that ymond Rouleau had a er in Ottawa who might perhaps be able to help Rivard. One of the considerations of seeing Raymond Rouleau was that his brother was an MP. Raymond Rouleau hadn't un- dertaken to do anything definite but had said he would do some- thing if he could. Lechasseur said he kept call- ing Raymond Rouleau after- wards to see whether there were any new developments.

MLF is a proposal for a sep-|™ arate force of surface ships, equipped with nuclear - tipped polaris missiles and manned by a mixed crew of allied sailors. In this way America's allies would share in a nuclear force and yet proliferation of nuclear weapons would be avoided. Laugh? She Could Have Died, And Did -- Bancroft admitted that he and Miss Andruso beat one another once a month, "We had to hurt each other before we got any enjoyment and I guess this time I hurt her too much," he said.
