Fox blocks RCMP data MONTREAL (CP) — Solicitor-General Francis Fox is to impose federal ‘‘titelage” on a vincial commission of inquiry into an illegal police break-in at a left-wing news agency in October, 1972, a commission lawyer said ay. Michel Decary was criticizing Fox's decision to block the production of certain RC. documents relating generally to the break-in, commission hearing that Fox was infringing on Quebec’s jurisdiction over the administration of justice by basing his decision on federal ..rather......than. provincial jaw. “In two “affldavits to the’ commission, Fox said the oduction of certain RCMP les would “automatically lead to the disclosure” of information relating directly to current in- yestigations conducted by the Mounties’ security and intelligence branch. It would also “‘reveal with a certain degree of recision’’ the security ranch's sources of in- formation, me’ of in- formation gathering and the personnel assigned to specific investigations, the fidavit said, Decary said the problem is that.only the solicitor- general is aware of the contents of a “sealed en- velope” in Ottawa, men- tioned in one affidavit, which contains an un- specified number of RCMP locuments pertaining to the raid. - This gives Fox a “carte blanche” to withold any . documents he wants, he added. The procedural debate over Fox’s move took most of the the first. day of public hearings .into. the break-in TINGED WITH HINTS The arguments of Decary and lawyer Michel Robert, representing the solictor- general at the h 8, were tinged with hints of a: federal-provincial dispute over the commission's ae tolook into RCMP opera procedures.

(CP) —-Ethel Edwards, 73, who with her husband Ralph saved trumpeter swans from extinction in the Atnarko valley during the 1930s, has been saved herself from an eviction notice by donations from all over the province. ' Landlord Harald Frostrup of Surrey, B.C., served an eviction notice on the widow because she was four _ months in arrears on her $200-a-month rent. Frostrup said he served the notice reluctantly, but was concerned about damage to the property from Mrs. Edwards’ 13 cows, some of which scendants of the ones she and her husband owned during their efforts to save the-swans. ; Delta pilot Bill Harkley said Tuesday that a trust fund he set up for Mrs. Edwards now stands at $1,400— $1,000 from a single anonymous Vancouver donor.

Harris said the situation will also hurt Prince Rupert. He referred to a letter which appeared in the Prince Rupert Daily News written by a first aid in- structor in that city. The Prince Rupert. in- structor, Ray Mitchell, said the take-over of the courses “reeks of mediccrity and inefficiency.” He pointed out that St. John bulance has con- tracted with the department of education for ost $.5 million to administer the industrial first aid training, while the Worker’s Com- pensation Board will con- tinue to dictate the course content as well as examinations and cer- tificates., St. John Ambulance has no industrial first aid in- structors nor any respon- sibility or power to train any, Michell stated. “Tn efect, St. John Am- bulance will merley be subcontracaing with in- dustrial first aid instructors to teach the course,” he claimed.

ATTACKS MINISTER Andrew Miller, president of the school’s parents committee, embellished his introductory speech with such remarks as: ‘'We expect just and equitable treatment from your government, not the vengeance and vin- dictiveness that we perceive in the inane ramblings of. Dr. (Camille) Laurin and a few of your other _ Ministers.” The premier, chain- smoking as he sat with Miller on a speaker’s platform backed by a huge Canadian flag, didn't flinch at the reference to the cdl ey altobme minister who drafted the new language legislation. Similarly, he maintained his cool when Miller an- nounced that, “come hell or high water,” the English- speaking community would efend its ‘‘Godgiven rights.” If that meant disobeyin the language law, replie Levesque: ‘Well, OK, it's illegal, but we won’t send the police in,, that's for ure,” Shae § Dt te however, that ‘his govern- ment would withhold grants for children illegal) registered in Englis. schools in defiance of the language charter.

Mitchell disagreed with a statement made by a St. John executive director that it was the aim of the group to provide the best possible course at the lowest cost. Mitchell stated this translates into the following “chronic problems.”' A constant failure of teaching equipment to arrive when needed; When equipment did arrice there was never enough; Often the equipment sent . was worn out and useless for effectivet teaching’ In the final analysis the only worthy consideration should be how bestand most . effectively to produce skilled first aid attendants,” Mitchel stated. The Prince Rupertr in- structor also condernned the two-week crash course suggested by the St. JJohn woker, This appreach has beeentried before, Mitchel sais, with a 70 per cent failure rate. Mitchell asked for union support in the matter stating that while most first aid attendants are earning union wages, instructors are now being told they must teach for less than minimum wage. said Levesque, adding that Quebec’s French-speaking majority was “not going to wait until we were in any . danger of going down the Grain” before legislating in its own defence, Levesque promised he would personally = in- vestigate specific cases where parents claimed children who have a right to attend English schools were being denied access.
