Cw een By KEN CLARK - Orrawa copy Ths Vas Va nbmmm to today over the Gerda Ginaee affair. Whether it comes re- mains to be seen. Conservative Leader Diefen- baker flew back to the capital Sunday following a British Co- lumbia fishing trip, and immedi- ately went into a huddle with his chief lieutenants. The topic was the Munsinger sex-and-security case. Upshot of these talks could well determine whether today's Commons ses- sion becomes a repeat of the acrimonious debate of Thursday and Friday. Political careers have been laid on the line by the Mun- singer affair which Justice Min- ister Cardin brought out from the shadows last Thursday. He accused the Opposition leader of mishandling the case when he was prime minister. Moreover, two or more of the Diefenbaker cabinet ministers were romantically involved: with the blonde, attractive German, he claimed. DIDN'T GIVE NAMES These disclosures sparked a volley of abuse from the Con- servative benches that stalled parliamentary business. There were cries for Mr. Cardin to name names or resign. He did neither. The Conservatives made it clear things would not return to normal until Mr. Cardin sub- stantiated his charges. All the while Mr. Diefenbaker| was in B.C, When he got back Sunday, he was uncharacteris-| tically subdued.

His last public appear- ance was about 18 months ago when he was seen similarly hooded on CBC's Front Page Challenge. A CBC spokesman said Sun- days interview was taped im- mediately before broadcast. Gouzenko has been living incog- nito under the eyes of the RCMP in a small Ontario town since the spy trials which fol- lowed his disclosures. He said he had agreed to ap- pear on television to "bring a SUNDAY WAS LESS DEMANDING Philip's Tour Brisk In Hollywood Today HOLLYWOOD (AP) -- Prince Philip dashes about the Holly- 'wood area today in a whirlwind of activity.

Gouzenko said the agent was already married, with children but he did not elaborate on the| incident. Douglas Leiterman, the show's executive producer, said later through a CBC spokesman it is his understanding that Gouzenko's "message" was that the Soviet embassy in: Ottawa is collecting information which| might prove useful in bringing! pressure to bear on people. '33 Killed In Mishaps | Meanwhile bits of information| about the attractive Munsinger woman keep popping up. She used to work as a waitress in the Chic-n-Coop restaurant in Montreal, which was destroyed by fire in 1962.

She | was very modest.' A Montreal city police spokes- man said the department has a hush-hush file on Munsinger which has been put under lock and key,in the office of Chief Inspector Leslie Hobbs The chief inspector refused to confirm or deny reports that she was arrested in 1961 in con- nection with an incident in a {Montreal department store, then released a few days later prior to her return to Germany.
