Millwright Strike Cripples Ontario Construction Work. By THE CANADIAN. PRESS A provincial strike of mill- wrights, members of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America (CLC), has erippled construction work across Ontario. , As the strike enters the third day, more than 660 millwrights are on strike in Brockville, Windsor, Hamilton, Peterbor- , St. Catharines, Kingston, Stratford and Kitchener. © The strike was averted in Sarnia Tuesday when union workers signed an interim agreement with 18 construction firms in the area. Union demands include a 50- a two-year period, vacation pay increase from four to six per cent and a $3 increase in travel) allowance, | The workers, who install ma- chinery in- industrial - plants, now receive $3.55 an hour and $4.50 daily travel allowance.

Turk Exits From Hospital, And Really Vanishes | "HULL, Que. (CP) -- Kirkor Horhoruni, the arthritic Turk who hates leaving hospitals, slipped out of one here Wednes- day and went into hiding. Officials at Sacred Heart Hospital and the Turkish em- assy declined to say where he ig staying. 'Kirkor, 37, checked into hos- pital here June 22 after an 11- month stay at Toronto's St. Joseph's Hospital where he contested all efforts to dislodge him. He finally left leaving a Teported $12,000 bill. | After two weeks here hos- pital authorities began trying tb "talk him out' but he said he liked his $34-a-day private) room and was staying. Doctors at Toronto and Hull say the patient's chronic arthritis is incurable and does not require a bed in an active- treatment institution. Kirkor thinks otherwise. BILL PAID UP Hull hospita! authorities said Mr. Horhoruni's bill is fully paid up and he was discharged into the hands of his embassy. | Behie Lisinbay, first secre- jtary at the embassy, said in an interview Kirkor left "voluntar- ily." He added that "patients who pay their bills are not thrown out of hospitals.'

Kennedy (Dem. N.Y.) to say Wednesday that he'd like to see the manufaciurers "make some efforts themselves." "IT have the impression that not enough is being done," Kennedy told the Chrysler of- ficial, Harry E. Chesebrough. Chesebrough and another Chrysler vice - president, Vir- gil E. Boyd, ran into the criti- cism as they testified before a Senate government operations subcommittee investigating the rising death toll in highway ac- cidents. Kennedy expressed annoy- ance with the Chrysler execu- tives, as he had with General Motors Corp. officials Tuesday, for saying they do not know how much their companies spend on purely safety efforts. IT'S TOUGH The two Chrysler witnesses agreed that while it is difficult to sell the public on the value of safety devices, it is not im- possible. Chesebrough urged Congrass to create a federal automobile |safety centre to help co-ordinate efforts to save lives on the high- ways and to foster a high-pow- ered driver education program. \Kennedy said he also favors jsuch a centre. Chesebrough said the centre should conduct a U.S.-wide in- vestigation and reporting pro- gram on accidents and their causes. | Other ' problems it should study, he said, are how to get uniform driver licensing, traf- fic signals, traffic law enforce- ment and the importance of hu-| Clash Bloody AMMAN, Jordan (AP) -- A military communique claimed there were two heavy armed clashes Wednesday between Jordanian border positions and Israeli patrols. It claimed the Israelis suffered heavy casual- ties. An Israeli Army spokesman in Tel Aviv mentioned only one clash -- at Miami settlement near the centre of the armis- tice lines -- and he said the Israelis suffered no casualties. The Jordanian communique said the other fight occurred when an Israeli patrol opened fire on the Jordanian village of By TOM MITCHELL OTTAWA (CP)--A press con- ference' by Prime Minister a happy note but wound up on a tragic one. Mr. Pearson emerged early in the afternoon from a cabinet meeting that lasted almost 244 hours and told reporters Gov- ernor - General Vanier has agreed to stay on for an indef- inite period, Obviously happy about this decision, Mr, Pearson said of Gen. Vanier's extension: "He'll stay as long as he de- sires."' Then, as reporters questioned Mr. Pearson about other aspects of the cabinet meeting, an aide brought a slip of paper to the prime minister's desk, "Surely this isn't true," Mr, Pearson exclaimed as he. read Vanier Will Stay As Queen's Agent known that the government hoped the spirited soldier-diplo- mat would remain in office past that time. Such an extension is not un- usual, Five other governors- general, including the Rt. Hon. Vincent Massey, Gen. Vanier's immediate predecessor in the post, have been granted term extensions by the Crown, VANIER PLEASED Gen, Vanier, told of the an- nouncement, said only that he was "very pleased," So was Mr. Pearson. Gen. jand Mme. Vanier had "per- \formed magnificently," he said. "We are very fortunate to have had them." Mr. Pearson also spoke of the report on Canadian - Amer- ican relations by former am- bassadors Arnold Heeney of Canada and Livingston Mer- the report that Adlai Steven- son, U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, had died dur- ing a visit to London. He asked that the report be checked. Minutes later one of his staff came in and said the report had been confirmed. PEARSON SHAKEN Mr. Pearson, visibly shaken, then spoke movingly of his deep grief and shock at the loss of "a very old and very close per- sonal friend." Announcing the extension for Gen. Vanier, Mr. Pearson read a telegram from Buckingham Palace stating that the Queen had given approval for him to continue as her representative in Canada for the time being. Mr. Pearson said there was no specific limit for the extension because Gen. Vanier "wanted to keep it open."' The official five - year term for Gen. Vanier, who cele- brated his 77th birthday last April 23, was up last Septem- ber. He agreed then to stay on for another year. But it was chant of the United States. He jwas asked spefifically about the report's suggestion that |Canada should avoid "so far as) |possible"' public criticism of |U.S.. policy in areas in which \Canada is not directly con- |cerned, He had always advocated) "quiet diplomacy" -- trying to| iron out differences by contiden- tial discussions and negotia-| tions, Mr. Pearson said, | Then he quoted another sen- tence from the same section of the report: "The Canadian goy- ernment cannot renounce its right to independent judgment and decision in the 'vast exter- nal realm'."" Mr. Pearson said if he had |written this, the sentence would have said "independent judg- ment and decision and pro- nouncements."'

The future of the shared-cost programs will be discussed at next week's premiers confer- ence and all premiers are ex- pected to ask for at least a voice in Ottawa's decision to embark on any new programs. The shared - cost programs cover such broad fields as old age assistance, blind and dis-| abled persons allowances, health grants, and such specific' topics as lime and pure bred sires assistance for farmers, They were initiated with the idea that the provinces would be encouraged to raise theif sights towards better services to the public on a national scale if Ottawa would pay half or a good portion of the cost. But they have not been en- tirely welcomed by all the prov- inces, Quebec, for instance, now has opted out of 29 such joint programs, preferring to be solely responsible for admin- istration and thus avoid having the federal government invade provincial fields of jurisdiction.

The Canadian Tax Founda- tion estimates that in this is- cal year, total federal payments to other levels of government-- 'ncluding municipalities and the northern territories -- will amount to §1,301,700,000 or 15 per cent of the federal budget, Of this $1,240,700,000 will be paid to the provinces, have found some of the pro- grams too expensive and low in priority for local needs, Not only does Quebec not want to join in any shared-cost programs but its spokesmen have made it plain that one of the province's purposes here next week is to see that fed- eral government intitiatives in any field do not invade provin- cial constitutional rights. | Ontario, according to Toronto) sources, has given no thought to opting out of any shared-| cost program. | Premier Roblin 'of Manitoba/ told his legislature this spring that his government would 'probably not contract out our- selves," but that it saw the value of having machinery by Tomorrow's Paper for Important Announcement = A Smooth, Spirited Drink Taste the light, appealing flavour.
