2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Friday, June 11, 1965 A BANG, OR A WHIMPER . Crisis On Rules ut How? " . mons headed towards a final flecision today on its reform of and with uncertain whether the debate will conclude with a bang or a whimper. Privey Council president Mc- "Yifaith thinks there is unani- mous agreement to complete the debate, now in its 15th day, p.m, and no opposition has yet challenged this the gentleman's agree- arranged Tuesday has not been written into the Commens official records and, as one MP' close to inter-party discussions remarked, an easy conclusion may depend on how many gen- tlemen are around at the end of the day. It was on Tuesday the gov- ernment agreéd to divide one resolution and send the provi- sions for a debate-limiting guil- lotine rule to a special nine-man committee with orders to report back to the House at 11 a.m. today. by 5 party view. But ment SOME OPPOSED . Opposition leader Diefenba- ker and some members of other opposition parties are opposed to the guillotine that would per- mit cabinet ministers to seek majority House support to place time limits on each stage of a government bill. There would be a guarantee of six days debate at least, if an all-party --, commit- tee could not agree longer or shorter times, plus up to two days for each amendment. The uncertainty today results from the compromise reached Tuesday, Mr. Mcliraith was un- able to announce unanimous agreement for handling the rest of the debate because the Cred- itistes were opposed to other] parts of the resolution. For this reason the agreement was not written into the House records. MPsland a 30-minute oral 'question vestigate spending estimates, longer sitting hours for the Commons, abolition of appeals against the Speaker's rulings four days. a week. The changes are expected to go into effect Monday. Four New Democrat amend- ments that attempted to alter the reforms were defeated iy. One by leader T. C. Douglas, to abolish appeals of Speaker's rulings but set up a study com- mittee to determine whether the jdecisions should be considered fit as precedents for future rulings, was turned down 40 to 14. | Another from Reid Scott (Tor- onto-Danforth) to provide an unlimited oral question period each Monday instead of the proposed 60 minutes won sup- port from all opposition parties but was ated 41 to 37 as attendance dwindled in the 265- seat Commons. Defeated as well were two amendments that reflected the concern of"Arnold Peters (Tim- iskaming) and Stanley Knowles (Winnipeg North Centre) for the stomachs of MPs, House staff and reporters in the pro- posal to abolish the 7 hours set aside each week for meals recesses.

Pei Alien Mle, i by TORONTO (CP) -- The On- tario government imposed com- pulsory arbitration in Toronto's hydro dispute Thursday night, jess than half an hour before a midnight strike deadline. After a 'stormy debate, the opposition waived its right to have the bill debated in com- mittee and third reading was lapproved without a recorded vote, Immediately after Royal As- sent, Deputy Labor Minister J. . Metzler handed a copy 'of the bill to William Baker, pres- ident of Local 1 of the Cana- dian Union of Public Employ- ees (CLC). He had been listen-| ling to the debate from the gal- lery with members of his nego- tiating committee. -Mr. Metzler said later it was Mr. Baker's responsibility to see that the new law was com- municated to the union's 550 members before the strike deadline. BACK MOTION The vote on the government's bill was 56 to 31: The Liberals backed a 'New Democratic Party motion that supported, a combination of mediation and arbitration as an alternative to Hydro Arbitration Forced By Quick Passing Of Law Under the NDP plan, the union would have lifted the strike deadline if the govern- ment appointed a mediator. The mediator would have 60 days to seek a settlement, then all unresolved issues would be submitted to: arbitration. The formula was backed by the union but was rejected by the Toronto Hydro Electric Sys- tem. The system suggested vol- untary arbitration but this was refused by the union. In proposing second reading of the bill, Premier Robarts said a halt or interruption in the supply of power would seri- ously threaten the health, wel- fare and economic well - being of the people served by Toronto Hydro -- more than 10 per cent 'of Ontario's population. The employees represented by the union include linemen required to repair breaks in transmissjon of power. Labor Minister Leslie Rown- tree, who presented a detailed explanation of his department's efforts to resolve the dispute, said there was intrasigencé on both sides. He indicated a clash of personalities was a big fac- the strike ban. tor.

Before he was caught, his crimes, which began with the fatal stabbing of a middle-aged widow on a June night 20 years ago, were to include the sadis- tic dismemberment of six-year- old Suzanne Degnan.

His plea for a new trial will be heard June (17. in U.S. district, court. In June, 1946, Heirens was captured during a robbery at- tempt.

It was the latest in a two- year wave of hijackings that police say has reached crisis proportions. Shippers, truckers and insur- ane companies, appalled at the situation, have met with law enforcement agencies in recent weeks to map plans of action. "I tell you that if this keeps up, we're going out of bus- iness," said a spokesman for Imperial Tobacco Company of Canada Limited, a favorite tar- get for the robbers. Hijackers cost Imperial To- bacco $91,000 in stolen goods in Hijacking Mushrooms Out; Threatens To Close Firms stolen with comparative ease. Some of them had keyes still in the ignition, he said. Dessureau suggests that firms hire armed guards to "ride shotgun" on trucks carrying valuable loads. Some firms have started us- ing trained dogs. Others, like Imperial Tobacco, are creating special security divisions. Ontario provincial police have set up a system of radio chevs- points for clocking moving car- goes. This has proved success- ful and a similar system is be- ing studied for Quebec, Shippers can protect them- selves by buying separate in- surance on cargo.
