Australia, by its direct volvement in the Vietnam war, has acquired a special status in the U.S. The Liaison was begun under former Sir Robert Menzies and contin- ued by Holt, who swore to go "all the way with LBJ" and made it stick at home. The presumed death by Minister Harold Holt of: Australia has particular impact on the United in- prime minister It is doubtful whether any other foreign leader has had as close a personal relationship with President Johnson, who prizes loyalty above most char- acteristics and notably when it comes to standing pat on Viet- nam. In the language of the Texas frontier Indian cam- describe his liking for a man, Holt was a "good man to go to the well with." Or, as Johnson put it Monday in an elaborate tribute, '"'He and the people for whom he spoke TORONTO (CP) -- The Allan Weatherbies of nearby Clarkson will celebrate Christmas Day twice this year--once on Dec. 25, and again when Mr. Weath- erbie comes home from hospi- tal. Mr. Weatherbie is the first kidney transplant case to be op- trated on at the Toronto Gen- tral Hospital: He is making sat- isfactory -progress but will spend Christmas Day at the hospital. Mrs. Weatherbie, meanwhile, Is. planning the two special Christmas celebrations. "It will be one of the finest Christmasses we've ever had," she said Monday. Her husband phoned six times during the|renal failure and both kidneys|speech which many regard as weekend "just to say, 'Hi,' and tell me how good it is to be alive." Mr. Weatherbie, 28-year-old father of two, was operated on Saturday following the death of Barbara Aitken, an 18-year-old girl killed in a car accident near her Orangeville, Ont., home. Five hours after the girl's death, five surgeons, who spent a year in various hospitals in the United States and France preparing for a kidney trans- plant, started the operation. WAVES AT WIFE Ten hours later, Mrs. Weath-| erbie watched from behind the plate glass protecting an inten- sive care unit as her husband waved at her.

Johnson leaves Washington today to attend memorial serv- ices in Australia Friday. Holt's views as expressed on his last visit here, last year, were that 'but for the power and resolution of the U.S., no country in Asia could feel itself secure from the threat of Com- munist aggression," |CITED ASIAN CRISIS ics: Do they want a world in which a Communist-dominated Asia forms a major part... a critical battle is being fought in |Vietnam for the future of man- | kind." Australia is in the process of increasing its Vietnam contribu- tion to more than 8,000 troops. .This is part of the Australian jreaction to Britain's steady withdrawal from its military commitments east of Suez. Soon only such sites such as Hong Kong will be left. As a predominently white An- glo-Saxon outpost in an Asian sea, Australia is at the end of the line, and has turned quickly to the U.S. At the same time, while its involvement in Vietnam grows in the name of containing com- munism, it has maintained and encouraged trade with China, particularly in wheat.

The evidence came from Const. Jean-Claude Gascon, 31, who told Judge Paul Hurteau he got into the St. Michel police de- partment earlier this year after he paid the alderman $1,000 in cash. He was testifying at the pre- liminary hearing of Mr. Con- stantineau on a charge of bri- ry. Const. Gascon--who resigned from the Montreal police de- partment last fall after 12 years of service--said he joined the force in the Montreal suburb June 15 of this year, two days after he paid the money to the alderman at the St. 'Michel city hall, ribery Trial Then, when Mayor Maurice Bergeron, a number of alder- men and the chief of detectives were arrested on charges of municipal corruption, he said Ald. Constantineau came to his house to "silence" him, He told the court he was at his home with his wife on Nov. 30 when Constantineau knocked on the door. The alderman asked him di- rectly if he were going to testify against him in court. Const. Gascon said Mr. Con- stantineau told hime he was a friend of. Quebec Premier Dan- jel Johnson. Mr. Constantineau then said he would pay him $1,000, $2,000, $5,000 or as much as 20 times that amoung if the officer didn't testify. Const. Gascon flatly re- fused the bribe. The case is continuing, ter, John McEwen, is a practi- tioner of that bluntness of the outstanding characteristic of the people from Down Under. Australian backing on Viet- nam seems assured, Holt won a handy victory on that issue in 1966. American investment in Australia continues to grow. The Australian military has been acquiring more American weapons, including sophisti- cated aircraft. Holt's successor, it. is as- sumed, will continue on a} course closely geared with Washington. | Los Angeles Hit By Strike LOS ANGELES (AP) -- The management of the Los Angeles!
