"We don't talk to ghosts," snapped William Houle, Mont- real president of the Canadian Postal Employees' Association. "Let the prime minister say it himself," commented Louis Laberge, president of the Que- bec federation of Labor (CLC) --with which Mr. Houle's union is affiliated--and a pledged sup- jporter of the strike. The statement was made in an Ottawa interview by an un- identified spokesman for the prime minister. He modified Mr. Pearson's remark that the government "can live" proposed NATO nuclear force. | diwithout postal service in Mont- 'Deadline Out Now For Judge OTTAWA (CP)--Judge J. C. Anderson is no longer com- mitted to producing his wage boost recommendations for pos- tal workers within a two-week deadline although he is work- ing hard to do so, a spokes- man said today. The spokesman on his staff said the judge, a government- appointed commissioner inves- tigating the pay dispute, was no longer "honor bound" to meet the deadline because Montreal's postal workers have failed to return to work. The deadline now was "self- imposed" rather than a_com- mitment because the deadline agreement worked out last week provided that all the strik- ing workers should go back to their jobs. The spokesman denied press reports that the judge . would hand in his report early this week in view of the Montreal workers' decision to remain off the job until specific pay rec- ommendations are made. Tornado Cheque Returns Home LANSING, Mich. (AP) -- A cancelled cheque which blew Ease Skilled By GERARD MecNEIL OTTAWA (CP)--The Pearson government is putting certain brakes on the building boom, in efforts to alleviate a shortage of skilled workers and prevent inflation in construction costs. A surprise statement issued by Prime Minister - Pearson Monday night said the brakes are also designed to sustain "a |steady rate of economic growth throughout Canada," during the next five years. Highlights of the statement: --The government is defer- ring for at least 18 months work on the new national museum and the Parliament Hill underground parking ga- rage in Ottawa, a new runway at' Montreal International Air- port and a new postal termi- nal in Toronto, --Construction of a terminal at Vancouver Interna- tional Airport will be put off until late 1966 if tenders now being prepared are regarded as too high. --Federal spending programs for the Trans-Canada High- way, sewage treatment plants and trade schools which run out in 1967 will be extended to 1970 to prevent a construction rush in the next two years.

This was a very- good long- term sign, he added. The announcement came on the heels of'a mid-year report on public and private invest- ment outlook by the trade de- partment and bureaus of statis- tics that was sprinkled with rec- ord figures. It indicated government, busi- ness and institutions plan to spend a total $12,800,000,000 this year, four per cent more than the total planned at the start of the year and 19 per cent above the 1964 level . The review said a substantial rate of increase for the second consecutive year {s placing "'in- creasing pressures on the avail- able supply of materials and la- bor." The growing shortage of skilled labor might prove the biggest obstacle to carrying out the plans.

Commenting on the announce- ment, Trade Minister Mitchell Sharp said the situation isn't a crisis. "This is a means of sustain- ing the expansion that is so great now, over a longer pe- riod."
