2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Friday, April 9, 1965 Hits A Deadlock By H."L. SCHWARTZ III PITTSBURGH (AP) -- Cru- cial basic steel contract talks are deadlocked with the indus- try blaming the impasse on un- ion internal troubles, The United Steelworkers Union de- nies this publicly, but privately some of its top men say it is 80. There could be a steel strike May 1 y 1. I. W. Abel, union secretary- treasurer, was reported to have defeated incumbent President David J. McDonald by several thousand votes in a power struggle rare for a major un- jon. McDonald, 62, has been presi- dent for 12 years. He says he gave up a promising Hollywood career to join the labor move- ment back in the 1930s. Abel is 56, earthy, forceful, a product of Ohio steel mills and the rough-and-tumble days of early organizing. The union's international tell- ers must report a winner by May 1. Effects of the election are ap- parent in the union's bargain- ing technique.

But a top union negotiator said that this year Abel and Jo- iseph Molony, who ran for vice- president on Abel's slate, in- sisted the economic matters be presented first. DUMP ON TABLE McDonald said okay and told them to draw up the package. Consequently, all the union's demands were dumped on the bargaining table at one time. This created the problem, still to start. One union man who was present said it also almost brought negotiators to blows when the industry ridiculed the demands and called them pre- posterous. McDonald's appointment of Abel and Molony to draw up the union demands was taken as a unity move. But McDonald also let it be known that he Ithought their package was ex- |travagant. The day after it was pre- sented and word got out that the inion was asking wage and benefit increases of more than $1 an hour over three years, McDonald was in California. He had left Abel in charge. | Abel backers said this was an lattempt to make Abel look ir- lresponsible and improve Mc-| BEFORE THE MAGISTRATE 'Hit-Run Driver Gets $300 Fine ' AJAX (Staff) -- A hit-and-run driver was fined $300 in Ajax Magistrate's Court Thursday when he pleaded guilty to leav- ing the scene of an accident on Feb. 20. +James Stevenson, 45, of 66 Burcher Rd., Ajax, according to Timothy Lioyd of Rosedale Blvd., Whitby, was coming from a Whitby hotel to Ajax along Highway 2 when he struck a vehicle in the rear causing it to veer off the road and strike a tree.

B. Cotnam, Ontario super- vising coroner, said Thursday. "We will have to get back, sociation, to hospitals and med- ical staffs to see that they know the Coroner's Act," Dr. Cotnam said. He said doctors have been treating the act lightly and must be made to understand how serious it is. The chief coroner was commenting in an interview on inquest this week at Kingston into the death of Robert Mc- Leod of Brockville from com- plications resulting from two operations that following an ac- cident. The death had not, been re- ported to a coroner and only came to light through an in- quiry by the Workmen's Com- pensation Board.

The owner re- fused, and the accused shot the dog Tuesday morning. He accused his neighbor of "not even hollering at it to be quiet." Young was fined $5 for wounding the dog, which he said has made a complete recovery and is still bark- ing.

Andre Villeneuve, counsel for Liberal MP Guy Rouleau, ap- pealed to Chief Justice Fred- eric Dorion to re-establish the reputation of his client so that his political future would not be ruined because he had merely followed Canadian parliamen- tary practice. Guy Guerin, representing for- mer federal aide Raymond Denis, said his client had been victimized by Liberal organizer Guy Masson. Francois Chapados, counsel for Masson, said his client had been exploited by friends of Ri-| vard, was facing bankruptcy and "can never regain his rep- utation now." | The Dorion commission is in-| vestigating allegations by Mont- real lawyer Pierre Lamon- tagne, acting for the U.S. gov- ernment in extradition hearings against Rivard, that he was of- fered $20,000 by Denis to drop opposition to bail for the sus- pected narcotics ring kingpin. Mr. Lamontagne has also ac- jcused Mr. Rouleau of bringing |pressure to bear on him on be- |half of Rivard, who escaped from Montreal's Bordeaux Jail March 2, ACTION 'NORMAL' Mr. Rouleau resigned as par- liamentary secretary to Prime Minister Pearson Nov. 24,. say- ing he had made normal rep- resentations in the Rivard case.

Masson, 35, was a "very old politician" who had worked for the Liberal party for 12 years, "not. just a minor politician." He had told Denis June 22 that $60,000 awaited the Liberal party if Rivard wasn't extra- dited to the U.S, But if Denis had been finan- cially or otherwise interested in the matter he would have acted earlier than July 14, date of the alleged bribe offer. mend some procedure « which) would prevent their daily har- assment by constituents and others. | Mr. Villeneuve maintained that Mr. Rouleau had done nothing objectionable and that his behaviour in the case had been irreproachable. CITES OTHER CASES He said the MP had acted no differently than in the cases of Bob Tremblay, serving 20 years for attempted murder, and Joe (Bananas) Bonanno, a Mafia lientenant expelled from Can- ada last year. Mr. Guerin said the "'whole tragedy of Raymond Denis" could be traced to a single tele- phone call he received June 22 from Masson.
