THIRTY-SIX PAGES "QUITE PLEASED" -- MOTHER Truscotts Review Set OTTAWA (CP)--Steven Trus- cott, convicted of murder at the age of 14 in a sex strangling, will have his case reviewed after spending the last seven years in prison. MPs banged their desks in approval when Solicitor - Gen- eral Pennell announced the re- view in the Commons Tuesday. He said the exact form of the review will be announced later, after his meeting Friday with Ontario Attorney - General Ar- thur Wishart. The Truscott case was raised in the House almost daily be- fore the Easter recess, when MPs of all parties requested an inquiry, a pardon or a new trial. A new book by Mrs, Isa- bel LeBourdais argues that Truscott was the victim of a miscarriage of justice. | There have been reports the jecabinet will ask the Supreme Court of Canada for a special review of the case and an opin- ion on Truscott's guilt or inno- cence, Opposition Leader Diefen-| baker said the reaction to Mr. Pennell's statement would be generally favorable and _ re-) newed his call for a new trial.

The U.S. in its early days-- and Greece and France in the post-war period ---- had exper- jenced similar problems before settling down to stability and Mr. Harriman said he sees value in the civilian elections now promised by the military regime in Saigon.
