STARTS IMMEDIATELY facing the Com- when the Conservatives were debating within caucus whether to stage a prolonged battle. Some Conservatives, such as PQ Opposes Law Halting Investments By THE CANADIAN PRESS The Quebec Liberal govern- ment announced Tuesday it op- poses the federal Liberal gov- ernment's proposed legislation preventing provir from in- |vesting in chartered banks. | Federal Finance Minister Gordon disclosed the proposed measure early this year after British Colum bia announced plans to participate in bank ownership. Premier Lesage, in corres- pondence with Mr. Gordon tabled in the legislature Tues- day, said he considered the federal move "extremely grave," Mr. Gordon replied the fed- eral measure is "not a serious restriction, in my opinion." To this, the premier said his government believes a variety of investments of Quebec pen- sion plan reserve funds will be needed. "We have to consider, in these conditions, as extremely grave the exclusion of the prov- inces from making any invest- ment in a whole category of enterprises within federal juris- diction," he told Mr, Gordon. COMMONS STUDY SET The federal amendments to the Bank Acts are scheduled to come before the Commons in the new session expected to open next month.

Windfall Oils and Mines Limited Tuesday quoted Viola MacMillan a Windfall promoter, as saying she would not quash rumors that were making the company shares jump in value last July. Mrs. Doris Drewe, the direc- tor, testified Mrs. MacMillan also did not answer questions as to why the Windfall core was not being assayed for its con- tent. When asked why she let the rumors continue, Mrs. Drewe quoted Mrs. MacMillan as re- plying: "I didn't start them. Let the people who did stop them." Mrs. Drewe, who has worked almost 25 years for Mrs. Mac- Millan and her husband George, Windfall's president, was testi- fying at a royal commission in- vestigating the sharp climb and decline of Windfall stock last July, The stock plummeted in va- lue when it. was announced that no ore had been found on Windfall property near Tim- mins, ' INVESTED AFTER TALK The commission also heard from newspaper men, one of whom said he had invested in the company after a conversa- tion with the MacMillans and subsequently lost $2,000. Camera Catches False-Alarmers BURLINGTON, Mass. (AP) Police Chief Edward C. McCaf- ferty credited an infra - red film device Tuesday with solv- ing a series of eight false fire The Toronto Stock Exchange told Windfall directors July 10 they must furnish an explana- tion of the reason for the com- pany stock's boom by July 13, or see the stock suspended from the exchange. Mrs, Drewe said she was then called to a directors' meet- ing in Toronto July 13. She, two other directors and the MacMil- lans met in the office of T. F. C. Cole, another director, where a prepared statement was reaa. The statement, replying to exchange, was passed in less than five minutes, said Mrs. Drewe. TELLS OF MEETING Earlier, James Scott, assist- ant business editor of the Tor- onto Globe and Mail, said that on July 9 he accidentally met the MacMillans and John Camp- bell, then director of the Onta- rio Securities Commission, in a Toronto hotel. (Mr. Campbell was suspended Aug. 25 by Attorney - General MILTON, Ont. (CP)--Police Chief Ray Andress of Milton said in court Tuesday he re- corded from a hiding place in her home an attempt by a Hamilton man to persuade an 82-year-old woman to lend him $600. The recording was not ad- mitted as evidence but Chief Andress was permitted to give his recollections of a conversa- tion between Murray William Major, 29, and Miss Myrtle B. Field of Milton, Major, five other Hamilton men and a Bur- lington woman are charged with conspiracy to defraud eld- erly persons throughout On- tario over the last seven years. Chief Andress testified that Major told Miss Field he could leave a box of coins as secur- ity for the loan and that he had been praying for her. As Major was about to leave he arrested him for attempted fraud, Chief Andress said. Miss Field testified that Ma- jor and Raymond James Smith, Arthur Wishart over conflict of interest charges in connection with trading in shares of Wind- fall.

PERRY Day or Night 723-3443 you want to be poor all your life, don't buy Windfall.' "Viola said, 'Oh, George,' as if he had disclosed a secret," Mr. Scott said.

She said she couldn't lend them the money and suggested they go home and pray. The next day, she said, Major tele- phoned to say how happy he was that he prayed because he had been able to borrow $200 and now needed only $600. She said he asked whether he could visit her and she agreed, When he arrived Chief Andress had conealed himself behind a bamboo door, Also on trial are John Carl Lazar, 42, Stanley Laing, 33, and David Gordon Young, 43.
