The move, climaxing a crisis pver financing of the market's agricultural policy, put the com- munity into mothballs for an in- definite period. Authoritative sources here said the ambassador, Je an- Marc Boegner, was "invited by the French government to. re- turn to Ss While this was not a final breaking-off of diplomatic rela- tions between France and the Common Market, it meant France would not take any ac- tive part in the work of the community in the foreseeable future. Since all decisions of the com- munity's council of ministers must be unanimous, the market now is unable to function. The French action plunged the Common Market into the most serious crisis it has known since its creation in 158, and opened up speculation about its continued existence.

One arm of the pincers led to Guy Rouleau, parliamentary secretary to Prime Minister Pearson; the other to Raymond Denis, executive assistant to the immigration minister. At the fulcrum of this pin- cers, the report by Chief Jus- tice Frederic Dorion shows, were two persons--Adrien Ed- ouard (Eddy) Lechasseur, strong-arm henchman of Riv- ard, and Rivard's wife, Marie Marthe. Lechasseur, 33, who has a criminal record dating from 1951, when he was 19, was al- lowed to leave Montreal jail Monday on $10,000 bail. Four charges against him of giving false addresses when signing bail bonds and other court do- cuments were withdrawn. be- cause of insufficient proof. He is scheduled to stand trial in September on perjury char- ges arising from the Dorion in- quiry. WILL DECIDE CHARGES Meanwhile, the federal gov- ernment has instructed +the jus- tice department to determine what charges, if any, should be laid as a result of the Dorion inquiry into alleged attempts, through political coercion and attempted bribery, to obtain Rivard's release on bail last summer. The Dorion report says Le- . chasseur and redhaired Mrs. Rivard, 32, were present when Liberal organizer Guy Masson was enlisted to approach Denis about the possibility of obtain- ing bail for Rivard. When this plot failed--at the inauiry, Rivard reviled his henchmen with a four - letter word for this failure--Lechas- seur and Mrs. Rivard went to see Raymond Rouleau, brother of the Liberal MP, about ap- proaching Guy on Rivard's be- half. The Dorion report says that. after Rivard's arrest June 1, 1964, Lechasseur, whose crim- inal record includes a convic- tion for manslaughter, became Mrs. Rivard's "guide and ad- viser,"' : The report says that at the inquiry Lechasseur "was intent LAL LL LEED ONTARIOS LAY OUT STRATEGY AT PETAWAWA on not telling the truth." It also says there is 'no doubt" that. Lechasseur, Mrs. Rivard, Masson. and.

George Burt, Canadian director of the United Auto Workers Un- ion, rejected Monday what he termed the claims of Laor Minister MacEachen that UAW demands and government moves to aid displaced work- Mr. Burt said in a statement that although the minister had said benefits for displaced workers in the Canada - U.S. auto trade pact are in line with what the UAW suggested, "'it comes nowhere near what we submitted.' "How Mr, McEachen can claim that his benefits are equal to or superior to the U.S. program is hard to comprehend since no one at this moment knows just what those benefits will be. That is a decision still to be made by the U.S, Con- gress," he said.

In: an -eight-line statement re- leased by Mr. Pearson's office, the prime minister said the res- ignation resulted from the Dor- jon report's finding that Mr. Rouleau had committed a "'rep- rehensible" act in his involve- ment in the Rivard affair. "J have discussed the com- missionér's finding with Mr. Rouleau," Mr. Pearson's state- ment said. "I have told him, and he has agreed, that he should resign as member of Parliament for Montreal Dollard and that he should not seek re-election at |the next general election." | Richard O'Hagan, the prime minister's press secretary, said Mr. Rouleau met Mr. Pearson for about 20 minutes last Wed- nesday, the day after publica- tion of the Dorion report. He said Mr. Rouleau tele- phoned the prime minister this morning from Montreal to in- form him that he has agreed to resign.
