Problems Of Indians Discussed By RON MacDONALD WINNIPEG. (CP)--The prov- inces may undertake a joint at- tack on the problems of In- dians, Metis and Eskimos. The subject came up for dis- cussion Monday at the sixth premiers' conference and Pre- mier Duff Roblin of Manitoba, conference chairman said: "There was general agree- ment~ that the provinces and other government levels are not dealing with these prob- lems as effectively as might be wished "I think there was a feeling that one of the main problems in this field is motivation. The aim must be to help the In- dians achieve self-respect and then give them the tools with which to do the job." Mr. Roblin told a press con- ference that the premiers be- lieve there is a need for a more By PETER BUCKLEY LONDON (CP)--Prime Min ister Wilson's Labor govern- ment easily survived a Con- servative no-confidence vote in the House of Commons Monday night after a lacklustre attack by Edward Heath, making his first major speech as Tory leader. The vote was 303 to 290 against Heath's motion, one of the strongest censures since La- bor took office last October. The 10 Liberal members, who earlier said they would support the government, abstained in- stead. Reaction to Heath's work- man - like maiden effort as leader was generally adverse. His speech had been built up for nearly a week as his chance to prove that he is Wilson's match as a debater. Hundreds of people lined up in the rain outside the Parliament build- comprehensive, over - all ap- proach to aid for Indians, Me- tis and Eskimos. He said the problem is to be) explored further, but declined) to say how. Private pensions were dis- cussed at the conference Mon- day morning. Mr. Roblin said the provinces are. making good progress to- ward Canada - wide portability for private pensions. Model leg- islation has been drafted which, if approved by each province, would achieve porta- bility. Quebec and Ontario have passed the legislation and other provinces are studying it, with Manitoba and Saskatchewan likely to act next year. Private pensions, distinct from the Canada Pension Plan, are those provided by compa- nies or, labor unions for em- ings in a vain attempt to get Wilson Easily Survives Tory No-Confidence Vote Refused tered by Conservative MPs" that Heath "was not brilliant, rousing or triumphant." The Manchester Guardian, a Liberal supporter, says the talk was "less than devastating" and the Financial Times says Heath "'failed to capture the in- itiative and rouse his support- ers." Heath's no-confidence motion was a brief but sweeping state- ment that:the House had lost faith in the government and in the prime minister's conduct of Britain's affairs. For 45 minutes, he recited statistics and quoted examples of what he contended was La- bor's failure to heal the eco- nomic ills of Britain .Instead, the government had. "gradually undermined confidence both at home and overseas." "We have not lost faith in the British people," the 49-year- old Tory leader said. '"'What we have doubt about is the prime minister's ability to give them seats in the public galleries But the sharpest verbal clash came after many of the original spectators had gone home. Shortly before the 10 p.m. vote, as Wilson was defending his government's economic meas- ures, a shouting match devel- oped between the prime minis- ter and Heath over measures Wilson said the Tories had pre- pared last year to meet the balance-of-payments crisis. With the speaker shouting to both men to keep order, and a hubbub arising from both sides of the House, Wilson threw a sheaf of papers across the floor at the Opposition benches. The left-wing Daily Mirror calls Heath's speech the "flop- peroo of the session."" Even two Conservative papers are crit- ical. The Daily Telegraph re- ployees.

The labor code that came into effect July 1 said the labor min- ister could permit an 18-month deferment of the: minimuin wage provision if he decided its immediate application would "unduly prejudice' the work- ers' interests or be '"'seriously detrimental" to the operation of the company.

(AP)--A young Scot who says sea- sickness cost him a job in the merchant marine has docked at this port after spending two years alone at sea. That's how long it took Paul Johnson, 26, to sail across the Atlantic Ocean in his 18-foot ketch, the Venus. During his long journey, Johnson stopped off in numer- ous Scandinavian and Euro- pean ports and at islands in the Atlantic. He held several jobs to buy food and supplies for the ketch. "I'm not some kind of freak," said Johnson, who has been doing that sort of thing for the last four years. "Do- ing this may seem pretty strange to you here, but it's perfection natural for me.

Spokesman for a half dozen investment firms, approached on the subject, said the buying splurge by short-sellers appears to be almost over. They said speculators sparked the price increase by placing a rash of short orders for British Mortgage share cer- tificates, possibly in anticipa- tion' of merger with Victoria and Grey Trust Co. or a take- over by Denison Mines Ltd. But their plans to acquire the stock at depressed prices failed when the 1,000 present owners of Brit- ish Mortgage shares decided to hold on to them. j The price fluctuation reached a peak Friday when British Mortgage shares closed at $4.75 bid and $5.25 asked. Earlier, the stock had fallen to a low of $2.50, from more than $30 in mid-June. One investment dealer said the stock could increase another $2 this week, until all last week's rash of short orders is covered. HELD ATLANTIC NOTES | The stock's fluctuations be-| gan June 17 when another com- pany, Atlantic Acceptance Corp., went into receivership with debts estimated at $115,- 000,000.
