Red River Flood Exhausts WINNIPEG (CP) -- The Red River apparently has exhausted} its power but the flood water it spewed into southern Mani- toba will keep some 5,000 peo- ple away from their homes for some time yet. "The flood is not over,") Agriculture Minister George Hulton said Friday. Earlier he reported that in all probability the Red reached its 1966 peak in Winnipeg Thurs- day--at 26.3 feet above winter average ice level. Dikes will be patrolled around the clock, Mr. Hutton said, be- cause the metropolitan area of 500,000 can still look forward to about a week of water levels in the 25-26-foot range before the Red starts to subside. The situation could still turn dangerous if heavy rains come a the flood recedes, he said. Winnipeg got a break Friday when the Assiniboine River shot its bolt before the Red's high- water crest arrived from the south. Coming on the heels of good weather conditions, the devel- opment indicated the Red's main crest, due Friday at Mor- ris 35 miles to the south, was not expected to have enough punch left to surpass the Thurs- day, 2% feet below the top of an earth and sandba, tecting the evacuate: ity. Force day level by the time it reaches Winnipeg. The Red rose slightly at Mor- ris Friday and held steady at St. Jean Baptiste, six miles to the south. Flood co-ordinator Bob Wal- lace said it will be some time before an orderly and safe re- entry to Morris can be carried out -- possibly not until the water level drops some four feet, the level at which all but essential personnel were evac- uated. Wallace said re-entry will not be permitted until all danger has passed from water behind the dikes, which now are hold- ing back about 20 feet of water. In Emerson, a border town 60 miles south of Winnipeg, the Red dropped two inches Fri- dike pro- commun, Emerson town council met Friday and recommended that re-entry not be permitted until the river drops a further three feet. | Winnipeg remains dry behind) 30-foot primary dikes but tenta-| tive estimates had 111 houses and one apartment block in fringe areas suffering some de- gree of flooding. | New York 'Goes It Alone' MISS Ellen Tsuji, 20 - year - old typist with the New Cana- dian, a Japanese - English bi-weekly paper in Toronto, SALISBURY.

(AP)--Recent inquiries into car - safety fea-| tures have thrown a spotlight on} New York State's "go-it-alone" project to design a car aimed at cutting in half accidental highway deaths. The first step, a $100,000 fea-| sibility study, has been com- pleted, Engineers with the Republic Aviation division of Fairchild Hiller Corp, concluded it would be possible to build a car that would cut by at least 50 per cent the chances of death or in- jury in a 50-mile-an-hour collis- lon. They advanced 134 proposed changes, ranging from rewrit- ing owners' manuals to new braking systems. Among the features the engi- neers suggested: --A rooftop periscope that would give drivers a clear view of traffic in front and back. A buzzer system that would alert other drivers when the car was backing up Padded bucket seats, with belts and shoulder harness, and cushioned head rests de- signed to prevent "whiplash"' | injuries. | --A plastic "bladder" gaso- line tank that would not rup- ture in a collision. --A "swinging-gate' bumper designed to deflect other ve- hicles or objects on impact. --Collapse structuring of the engine and truck compart- ments, to absorb shock before it reached the passenger com- partment. --Roll - bar framing around the passenger compartment, to keep the area intact if the car should roll over. --Windshield wipers for the rear window, and a defrosting | system that would keep all} windows clear of fog. The state is in the process of allocating another $300,000 to design the car. That phase is to be completed by next year. Plans call for an expenditure of $4,000,000 to $5,000,000 to build eight to 10 prototype mod-| els that could be crash-tested at various speeds to determine whether safety performance equals engineering promise. State officials hope the fed- eral government will pay about 90 per cent of the cost. FATHER AVID SOCCER FAN, DAUGHTER'S NAMES PROVEIT LONDON (AP) eter.

MONTREAL (CP)--A week- end of activity was expected in Montreal's construction strike, the largest and potentially most explosive of a series of labor disputes which have left more than 18,000 Quebec province workers idle. Representatives of the Confed- eration of National Trade Un- ions and the Quebec Federation of Labor, whose member unions work on the construction proj- ects, were called by the provin- cial labor department to a meeting today. An estimated 10,000 CNTU members are on strike. The ap- proximately 20,000 QFL con- struction workers are not on strike but large numbers have not crossed CNTU picket lines. A mass meeting of CNTU members Sunday night will hear a report from their lead- ers. The strike has hit tens of mil- lions of dollars worth of con- struction projects in Montreal, although work on Expo 67 is un- affected because of a no-strike agreement signed two years ago. In other strikes: --Leaders of some 2,300 tech- nical school teachers, facing legal action said they are will- ing to negotiate.

'--AP Wirephoto Moderator Role Again? OTTAWA (CP)--In the cur- rent NATO crisis, a hard and delicate test may be shaping up for Canada's apparently devel- oping role as a moderator within NATO between the French and American positions. Informants say Canada ad- heres firmly to the U.S. and NATO policy of military inte- gration but at the same. time wants to keep open channels leading to the best possible ar- rangements between France and the alliance for military co- operation. External Affairs Minister Martin has said Canada wants to encourage French participa- tion in Western defence to the greatest' extent feasible. He is expected to éxpand on this theme tonight in a speech at a National Newspaper Awards dinner in Toronto and again Thursday before the Com- mons external affairs commit- tee. Battered Liner Reaches Port NEW YORK (AP)--The Ital- ian superliner Michelangelo, battered by a killer wave at sea Tuesday, docked here today. The sleek, white ship flew her flag at half staff and a giant tarpaulin was strung across her damaged superstructure like a bandage. The impact of the wave, de- scribed as at least 35 feet high, killed two of the ship's 775 pas- sengers. A crew member died the following day from injur- ies. Also injured were five. pas- sengers and seven other crew members. Nine windows on the ship were boarded up and inside was the debris left by the storm. Broken chairs and tables lay on water-stained carpets and whole sections of ceiling has been ripped loose. Child Plunges 115 Feet To Death TORONTO (CP) 115 feet to his death Friday Don River.

The agreement in principle was reported to have been reached in private talks be- tween Premier Nguyen Cao Ky and delegates from the national political congress. This date would be about a month earlier than the deadline set in a government decree signed two days ago in the face of mounting Buddhist pressure. The decree fixed a time limit of three to five months. Saigon was quiet today after Friday's announcement that the Buddhist church was calling off its agitation in view of the gov- ernment concessions, But in Da Nang, about 3,000 demonstrators took to the streets and demanded that Ky's military government give way to civilian rule in South Viet Nam. The noisy rally and march followed by a statement Friday at Buddhist leaders in Saigon Buddhists warned demonstra. tions would follow if the regime did not keep its promises, The Saigon Buddhist state- ment made no reference to de- mands, voiced in the north, that Ky resign immediately and a transitional government take over until elections are held, The demands were made by two persistent critics of the Ky junta, Lt. Gen. Nguyen Chanh Thi and Mayor Nguyen Van Man of Da Nang.

Over French BONN (AP) --The United States, Britain and West Ger- many today set up a new body to deal with the French with- drawal from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization's inte- grated military structure. It will consist of the No. 2 man in the West German for- eign ministry, Karl Carstens, and the U.S. and British am- bassadors in Bonn--George C. McGhee and Sir Frank Rob- erts, The agreement was an- nounced after two days of talks in the Bonn foreign ministry on the future of French forces in West Germany. The new body's purpose, the announcement said, will be to continue the exchange of opin- ions. "Recommendations of the working group," the three na- tions announced, "will be the object of further consultations among the NATO powers which received the French memoran- dum." The joint statement said the discussion during the last two days had been on "the political, military and legal questions arising out of the announcement of the French government that French troops in the Federal New NATO Body Formed Withdrawal Republic (of West Germany) are to be withdrawn front NATO command." Other member states had been informed of the talks, it added, and the participants were convinced that they had made a useful contribution to further consultations among NATO members. The statement did not say anything: about the conditions under which France should be allowed to keep its troops in West Germany. The U.S., British and West German governments are known to want a clear definition of what their task should be and how they should co - operate with NATO troops.
