6 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thuredey, November 30, 1967 THOSE ALREADY CONVICTED New Death Penalty Bill Creates Legal Problems By ALEXANDER FARRELL OTTAWA (CP) -- If govern- ment legislation limiting the death penalty becomes law, what happens to a man already on trial for murder and subse- quently convicted? Must the judge sentence him to be hanged? The answer is yes, as the bill) now stands. But this may be changed before it gets through committee and is given third and final reading by the Com- mons, Terry Nugent (PC--Edmonton Strathcona) suggested Wednes- day that the bill, already ap- proved in principle by the Com mons, should be made clearly applicable to court proceedings already in progress when it be- comes law Solicitor-General Pennell agreed to consider the sugges- tion, and may state his position when debate resumes today on third reading of his bill to limit PARLIAMENT AT-A-GLANCE By THE CANADIAN PRESS WEDNESDAY, Novy. 29, 1967 The Commons resumed clause-by-clause study of the bill, already approved in prin- ciple, to limit capital punish- ment. Liberal Ralph: Cowan com- plained that one clause was drafted to save the cabinet from having to commute death sentences of two Quebec separatists. A defence bid for a retrial was dismissed in the Ray- mond Denis trial on charges of obstructing justice.

Last year the prime minis- ter lost a similar wager--the amount was not disclosed-- when Saskatchewan defeated Ottawa Rough Riders in the championship football game. This year he is betting on Hamilton Tiger-Cats, he told Ken More (PC-Regina), who appeared in the Commons Tuesday wearing a huge bou- tonniere in Saskatchewan's green and white colors. When Mr, More asked whether Mr. Pearson again had bet against the West with Mr. Rapp, the prime minister |discussion of them is not per- missible.

NUMBERS INCREASE Christians in Hong Kong have quadrupled in number during Wednesday, but an injunction that got the work started after a three- day shutdown expires today, Ahearing to determine wheth- er or not the injunction should be extended is to he heard today in Quebec Superior Court, It is to be heard at the same time as a provisional injunction which forbids shipping compa- nies from refusing work to long- shoremen expires. The lomgshoremen won one legal battle Wednesday in their long-standing dispute with the of a binding federal government report. The companies, represented by the Shipping Federation of Canada, had sought a motion to dismiss the provisional injunc- tion that got cargo-handling op- erations working again. The Quebec Court of Appeal 'dismissed the motion Wednes- day and ordered the shipping federation to pay court costs. CONSIDERS APPEAL shipping companies over terms} counter action against the in- junction was "'in no way an at- mpt te handicap operations in the port of Montreal," However, the statement said, despite "our overwhelming de- sire te keep the port in opera- tion, as employers we must pro- teet our own economic interests and competitive aliility to the extent of requiring at least a reasonable level of work for the wages paid," The federation and the Inter- national Longshoremen's Asso- ciation have been feuding since Nov. 1 over their different in- terpretations of the binding fed- eral report prepared by Laurent Picard, designed to increase the port's productivity. The dispute erupted further last Friday when the stevedor- ing companies, members of the federation, fired all of Mont- real's 3,000 longshoremen for what they said was failure to report for duty in sufficiently- large work gangs. City Of Naples Invaded By Hordes Of Sewer Rats NAPLES, Italy (Reuters) -- Neapolitans slammed their shutters Wednesday to keep out hordes of rats pouring from drains and sewers. Inhabitants fought with sticks and stones to clear the rats away as they invaded whole areas of the city. One boy said he had to throw stones to clear a way through 50 rats in front of his house. The invasion, which started several days ago, grew as rainy weather continued, driving the rats from drains and sewers in search of food. Earlier this week a mother had to draw away a rat which was biting the ear of her sleeping 18-month-eld child.
