re ag 1970 Goals May Mean '65 Tax Cut OTTAWA (CP)--The Canadian Tax Foundation believes the recently-published report of the Economic Council of Canada's goals for 1970 substantially in- creases the odds for tax cuts this year. "The Canadian Tax Journal, the foandation's bi-monthly publica- tion, says that unless some stim- ulation is given in the coming budget, Canada will be shy of) the mark in the first year of the five-year goals charted by the council The council, headed by John J. Deutsch, said in its first an- nual review published last month that the gross national product of Canada should grew at a rate of 5.5 per cent a year in real terms to achieve the 1970 goals. The foundation says: 'Taking i into account the anticipated price increase, this means that an average annual GNP growth of 7.5 per cent in current dollars is required to reach potential. Failure to reach this rate would result in widespread unemploy- ment by 1970.... "The consensus at the mo- ment is that about a six per cent current dollar increase in the GNP is likely for 1965. Thus without some stimulation in the coming budget, it appears that the council's annual average tar-| get could be missed the first | year on the way to.1970. In its review of the Deutsch report, the foundation cites two ways that a 1970 potential sur- plus of $2,250,000,000 in the treasuries of all levels of gov- ernment can be cut down--to There was nowhere to go but up, so this agile pedes- trian climbed a handy wire fence and clung there until splashing car had passed at Ottawa Monday.

New Plan Would Fit Immigrants NIAGARA FALLS, Ont. (CP) A senior immigration officer said that immigration machin- ery in Canada will be reorgan- ized to fit immigrants into the Canadian labor force as part of a re-emphasis on their recruit- ment. J. K. Abbott, director of the Canadian service in the immi- gration branch of the depart- ment of citizenship and immi- gration, said at a press confer- ence here there are not enough skilled workers in Canada to fill the needs of industry. He said attempts are being made to attract skilled workers from other countries. The press conference took place during a three-day con- vention of 39 immigration offi- cers representing 31 immigra- tion offices across Ontario.

The sentence, due to be pub- lished today, accepts the public prosecutor's argument that Ponti was not free to marry Miss Loren because he was al- ready married to another woman, 'court sources said. This decision means that big- amy charges now pending can be proceeded with against Ponti and Miss Loren. Under Italian law, the crime of bigamy is wiped out if the previous marriage is declared null and void, or if the second marriage is annulled by a cause other than bigamy. Rome . ecclesiastical courts have rejected applications for annullment of Ponti's 1946 mar- riage to Giuliana Fiastri. Ac- cording to the latest court de- cision, Ponti's second marriage, to Miss Loren is annulled on grounds of bigamy.

(CP) -- H. L. Sharpe, president of the North- ern Life Assurance Company of Canada, said Monday the Can- ada Pension Plan is not serv- ing the best interests of the country. Mr. Sharpe, of London, told the company's annual general meeting the pension plan "ig- nores the immediate needs of the 2,000,000 aged and invades an area of social welfare that could to a major extent be bet- ter handled by private indus-} try." | "It can reasonably be claimed that the best interests of the country are not being served," from Giuliana Fiastri. But Italian law does not rec- ognize divorce. In March, 1963, Ponti and Miss Loren went on trial here on bigamy charges. The case was indefinitely ad- journed. Counsel for Ponti and Miss Loren asked that the bigamy charges be dropped, or else that the criminal court await the decision of the civil tribu- nal, which had. been asked to declare the Mexico ceremony null and void, Ponti's recent receipt of French citizenship did not ap- pear immediately to affect the last Rome decision in his matri- monial tangle.

'Marijuana | Law Absurd Expert Says VANCOUVER (CP)--A drug expert agreed Monday with at least one contention of a secret marijuana society here--that it is absurd to have laws against marijuana smoking. Dr. James Foulkes, head of the pharmacology department at the University of British Col- umbia's medical school, said marijuana has no harmful phy- sical or spiritual effects. "A number of young people --intellectual people--are prone to try drugs such as marijuana because they have not arrived at a satisfactory relationship with their surroundings. "Though I would discourage marijuana smoking as I would discourage homosexuality, I feel it is absurd to have laws against marijuana -- especially such silly laws that put mari- juana -on the same level as heroin, a recognized _habit- forming drug." Dr. Foulks, who is also a doctor of medicine, said the United Nations has classified marijuana as a non-addictive drug. 'Marijuana isn't habit - form- ing," he said. "Cigarettes are habit - forming as many of us know -- and so is beer or liquor."

The assembly president, Alex Quaison - Sackey of Ghana, scheduled the informal secret balloting for 11 a.m. to noon Wednesday in his office outside the assembly hall preparatory to an afternoon assembly ses- |sion. The procedure is aimed at clearing up contests between Gabon and Guinea for the eco- nomic and social council; Brazil and Colombia for the budget ad- visory committee and Czecho- slovakia and Belgium for the board of auditors. Those that get majorities in the informal poll will be elected by general consent in the assembly. The same scheme was used last December in electing Se- curity Council members. - It fitted in with the voting mora- torium instituted at the start of the session Dec. 1 to avoid a big - power showdown over UN charter Article 19. That article says any mem- ber two years behind in total assessments shall have no as- sembly vote. The United States insists that it be enforced. The Soviet Union and. France, among others, are that far be- hind for refusing to pay as- sembly peace-keeping assess- ments on grounds that only the Security Council has the right to start and finance peace-keep- ing ventures, At Monday's meeting the as- sembly set the stage for a long recess during. which negotia- tions, could proceed to break the financial deadlock.

Neither of these de-| velopments appears likely. | The war in Viet Nam _ has moved in a new, broader and more dangerous stage, which perhaps can be ended only with one side or the other eating crow, most observers agree. During the weekend the U.S -bombed North Viet Nam_ be- cause some of the 23,000 U.S. "military advisers" in South Viet Nam had been hit hard again. ACTION AWAITED Now awaited are indications as to how far China and the So- viet Union will go in backing their harsh condemnation of the U.S. raids. Events have put heavy pres- sure on the new men in the Kremlin. But they seem to have closed ranks with China on the question of help for North Viet Nam against the U.S, to that extent at least, the Sino-Soviet ideological battle has been set aside. New stresses have been im- ed on relations between the .$. and Russia. This comes at a time when both sides.seemed to be making progress in lining up a leadership visit exchange this year, BRIEF LOOK AT VIET NAM Saigon -- South Vietnamese bombers, accompanied by U.S. planes, attacked Com- munist North Viet Nam again.

"ve you i |dren do not need to be in the mn ~~ TORONTO (CP)--Health Min- ister Matthew Dymond took personal responsibility Monday for overcrowding at provincial hospital schools for retarded Children. In a speech later attacked by Stephen Lewis (NDP--Scarbor- ough West), Dr. Dymond told the Legislature that many chil- hospital schools. "In taking responsibility for it," he said, "I have always al- lowed my heart to rule my head." Parents often seek help from members of the Legislature, who in turn come to him to though no influence has ever been sought or used. But as a result, these insti- tutions: are overcrowded, the minister said.

'BLOT ON CONSCIENCE' The Smiths Falls hospital he said, "is a blot upon the con- science of a province and an abomination in its own right if every member of this house visited Smiths Falls it would be corrected within six weeks." The pattern of mental health care described by Dr. Dymond must be questioned, he said, be- cause. when psychiatric wings are added to general hospitals, community mental health clin- ics sometimes close. Mr. Lewis also criticized con- ditions at the Ontario Mental Hospital in Toronto, which he THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesdoy, Februry 9, 1968 § said is archaic, short of staff, lacking in follow-up services and faced with sanitation prob- lems, In other business Monday, three bills introduced in the leg- islature would give Ontario counties full authority over safety inspection of construc- tion sites.

School Crowding Maximum fines for infrac- tions of the construction safety act codes would be raised to $5,000 from $1,000, a restraining order would be made prevent- ing work continuing while pros-- ecution proceedings are under way, and penalties of up to $100 a day would be levied for vio- lations.
