FISHERMEN WORRIED Several fishermen’s representatives asked at the meeting how the U.S. might respond to their presence in Alaskan waters. “What do we do if we get hauled in by the U.S. Coast Guard?” asked one. “We could lose the whole season.’’ Todd replied: “We would not expect the U.S. to reapond in that fashion,” Todd said.

Officials indicated Trudeau would move to close down the Commons for the day shortly after MPs met at 2 p.m. In a telegram to Italian Premier Giulio An- dreotti, Trudeau said Moro’s death left him with a “profound sense of sadness,” , “In the name of all the people of Canada I want to express to you, to your government and to the people of Italy our anguish and sorrow over this senseless act of terrorism,” Trudeau, who knew Moro personally, said he saw in the late Italian premier ‘‘a fine humanism and the qualities of a great statesman.” “I can therefore understand all the more deeply how frofound must be your country’s sense of Joss.” Moro was found dead in a car in Rome today after being kidnapped by Red Brigade terrorists. The Italian government had refused to negotiate with the terrorists for Moro’s release. It will be the first time the Commons has been adjourned for a foreign leader’s death since U.S. President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in 1963. Walter Baker, Progressive Conservative House leader, said his party agreed to the Commons adjournment and described Moro's assassination as “an uncivilized act against a most civilized and Christian gentleman,” Stanley Knowles, NDP House leader, described the adjournment as a very unusual procedure, used infrequently in the past. He recalled the Commons breaking normal practice in 1970 in the wake of the terrorist killing of former Quebec labor minister Pierre Laporte. Laporte, like Moro, had beenkidnapped and was é later found in a car, murdered. .
