IN BRITISH HOUSE Rhod esia Discussed By PETER BUCKLEY LONDON (CP) -- The House of Commons dug in for a long haul Thursday in appropriate fashion, with a heated ex- change between Prime Minister Wilson and Conservative Leader Edward Heath over Rhodesia. Facing what probably will be more than a year of continuous sittings, the newly-opened Par- liament launched into its first hours of debate with a topic which probably will prove the most contentious of all. Heath had accused Wilson of going back on a promise last December than Britain would not "promote" international ac- tion to stop oil tankers from reaching Mozambique with sup- lies for the rebel regime in hodesia. The prime minister said the government had made repeated efforts recently to probe for ne- gotiations with Ian Smith's rebel government, without suc- cess. Britain's only condition was that the talks should not imply recognition of the Smith re- gime, he said, "I want to repeat that this solution cannot be one which condones illegal and unconstitu- tional action. There is a great deal that we are prepared to forgive and forget. We are not prepared to legalize an act of rebellion against the Crown." Earlier, the Crown in the person of the Queen rode through sparkling sunshine to the neighboring House of Lords to read what is called "Her Majesty's most gracious Wilson replied with one of his longest Commons speeches--93 minutes--in which he accused speech"--an outline of govern- ment legislation and intentions, prepared by the cabinet -- to the Tory leader of "word chop- ping" and said other countries had been preparing to take even more drastic action to mark the opening of Parlia- ment The 10-minute speech listed prevent oil freighters from reaching Beira in Mozambique. When the prime minister de- manded repeatedly to know what Heath would have done, faced with the possibility of a fleet of chartered tankers reaching Beira, Heath retorted by asking whether Britain would now seek to blockade South Africa. | Wilson replied bitterly: 'The right honorable gentleman al- ways wants to make things as difficult as possible in our re- lations with every other coun- 22 items of legislation--besides touching on international and domestic affairs -- which Par- liament will be asked to ap- prove, Among them were a dozen bills which had _ not passed completely through the parliamentary mill before the last Parliament was dissolved for the March 31 general elec- tion.

Seven Days is done despite CBC management, not with its as- stance, the Commons committee on broadcasting was told Thurs- day. Patrick Watson, co-host of the Sunday television program, said he thinks there has been an at- tempt to inhibit development of a program that arouses con- cern or provokes discussion. "The tendancy has been to discourage the program that does not lead to the quiet life." Mr. Watson, who along with Laurier LaPicrre has been told he will not be with the program next season, was the second wit- ness to testify before the com- mittee Thursday. Hearings re- sume today.

The action, which seeks $110,- 000 in damages from Juri Raus, 39, of Hyattsville, Md., has been filed in Baltimore. Mr. Heine said Raus called him an agent of KGB, the So- viet secret police. Pre - trial hearings have produced testi- information about Mr. Heine in his capacity as a Central In- telligence Agency agent in the United States. The CIA says the information on Mr. Heine fs privileged and won't be disclosed. For the same reason, it claims Raus can't be sued. Mr. Heine, who married his wife Ilse--also a native of Es- tonia--in Toronto in 1957, is foreman of an artistic wood- working plant here. He is a candidate for election to the Estonian Cultural Coun- cil, top agency for former Es- tonian citizens living in Canada, and says Raus's accusation damaged the respect formerly mony from Raus that he gave held for him by the Legion of Teamsters And Truck Firms To Continue Talks Today TORONTO (CP) -- William Dickie, director of conciliation services for the Ontario De- partment of labor, said Thurs- day night meetings will con- tinue today between represen- tatives of five striking Team- ster locals and 55 southern On- tario trucking firms. Mr. Dickie said no settlement appeared imminent in the strike, now in its fourth month, involving about 8,500 members of the International Brother- hood of Teamsters (Ind.). "The most hopeful thing right now is that we are talking and reviewing the issues," he said in a telephone interview.

Estonian Liberation Inc., a vet- erans organization. He told reporters he was cap- tured by the Russians in 1940 in Estonia, In 1941 he was ex- changed as a prisoner of war and fought with the Estonian Army, under the Germans, against Russia. Mr. Heine said he was recap- tured in 1944 but. returned to Estonia after escaping from a Russian slave camp where he was imprisoned for a winter. He said he was sentenced to death by the Soviets for treason after being arrested in the Es- tonian capital of Tallin in 1950 but the sentence was commuted to 25 years' imprisonment when he bluffed authorities into think- ing he was a German citizen. He was released in 1956 and came to Canada the next year. Siegried Videnbaum, editor- in-chief of the Estonian news- paper Meie Elu, said there are about 9,000 Estonians in Toronto everything from bare-breasied dancers to hatchet jobs on Prime Minister Pearson and Opposition Leader Diefenbaker. He asked for specific cases where restrictions had been im- posed. Producers probably won in- ternal disputes more often than lost, Mr. , but there had been flat instructions against use of ma- terial on Rev. Russell Horsburg and against use of material re- lating to the kind of reception the Queen would get in Quebec during the 1964 royal visit. In the case of Mr. Horsburg, he added, the instructions were ignored when a network official saw what the program's staff had prepared. Watson con- 6 U.S. Senator Warns Of McCarthy' WASHINGTON (AP) -- Sen- ator J. W. Fulbright has warned against permitting "a new era of McCarthyism" to invade the debate over the Viet Nam war. The Arkansas Democrat, chairman of the Senate foreign relations committee, said the debate now exists in a "rela- tively healthy atmosphere. "It is by no means certain that the relatively healthy at- mosphere . . . will not give way to a new era of McCarthy- ism." Freedom Claimed TORONTO (CP) -- The auto- motive trade agreement with the United States gives Cana- dian automobile manufacturers complete freedom to use a mini- mum of Canadian-made parts, an Automotive Parts Manufac- turers' Association official said 'hursday. D. 8. Wood, executive vice- president of the association, told the group's annual meeting that while the pact calls for in- creased Canadian production, nothing prevents manufacturers from achieving it with imported parts, "There is no guarantee at all of continued parts production in Canada--none except the desire of the auto manufacturers to be good citizens in their host coun- try. "We have ample evidence that they have this desire but there must be a practical in- centive for the auto companies to translate the desire into ac- tion." He urged the parts companies to be aggressive in their efforts to persuade manufacturers to tool a fair percentage. of parts in Canada for the North Ameri- can market. He said manufacturers would have an additional incentive to buy Canadian parts if the fed- eral government would remove its 11-per-cent sales tax on pro- duction machinery and equip- ment. The association is sending representatives to Ottawa to seek a reversal of the budget decision that retains the tax un- til next April, he said. THE OSHAWA TIMES, Pridey, April 22, 1966 3 MONTREAL (CP) -- gates to the national convention of the Royal Canadian Legion Taursday waded through ine last of more than 200 resolu- tions, bringing to a virtual con- clusion a week of debate on matters concerning Canada's ex-servicemen. The 1,063 voting delegates at what may have been the larg- est convention in the legion's history~-there were another 431 fraternal delegates -- also elected Ronald E. MacBeath, 55, of Moncton, N.B., as Do- minion president for 1966-67, He succeeds Fred T, O'Brecht, 56, of Durham, Ont. Other officers elected in- cluded Arthur Adams, 66, of Port Credit, Ont,, and Domin- ion chairman, Chester M. Mer- riam, 56, of Tara, Ont. The convention ends officially today with discussion. of any new business and installation of officers. The 1968 convention will be held at Penticton, B.C. SOME BROUGHT BACK Some of Thursday's resolu- tions were brought back to the floor after being rejected by the resolutions commit- tee, Those approved included: --A requested revision of the gambling sections of the Criminal Code to make it le- gal for "bona fide organize- tions" to hold lotteries, draws, raffles and bingos. --A request that regulations Legion Nears The End Of 200 Resolutions to Soran, on tes quest, to have a m' nerai wiih iis coffi service, Earlier in the day, delegates had called for & resdlatian proved earlier, for what one "the Legion's stand on pensions is very clear" to Ottawa. The resolution had asked for a cyclincal review of and war veterans' allowance creases in the cost of living, MAY ACCEPT REVIEW Veterans Affairs Minister Roger Teillet, in a speech to the convention, had said the government might accept a cy- clical review if it could esta' lish a yardstick on which to es- tablish base rates. Finding such a comparative yardstick was difficult, The amendment moved later deplored "attempts to down- grade the services of the war disabled" and demanded, for a single veteran on a 100-percent pension, an amount . "approxi. mately equal to what he could have earned by his own labors." Fulbright called the protests against the war "a rare experi- ence for Americans' and said they were "a mark of strength and maturity." He said they evolved ". . .- because one's sense of decency is offended, because one is fed up with po- litical craft and public images, or simply because something goes against the grain.'

"The longer the Vietnamese war goes on without prospect of victony or negotiated peace, the war fever will rise, hopes will give way to fears, and tol- erance and freedom of discus- sion will give way to a false and strident patriotism." Fulbright said his commit- tee's hearings on Viet Nam and China, which have been the fo- cal point of the war policy de- bate, would continue. "It is my hope that this ex- periment will not only contrib- ute to public education but will help to restore the Senate to its proper role as adviser to the president on the great issues of foreign policy... ." and a Soviet agent's job, if he infiltrated the community, might be to try to persuade Es- tonians to return home. Mr. Heine, he said, was among a group which advo- cated the toughest possible stand against this type of propa- ganda, most of which now ar- tives from Estonia by mail. Mr. Heine said he at no time had any communication with the CIA which, he said, thinks he is an impostor. He said the RCMP investi- gated him and he was granted citizenship in August, 1964, de- spite the CIA accusations.
