participants felt Con-

~ servative supporters had a
’ beavy influence on the

constitutional debate.
Key changes the women

" want in the charter include

‘a guarantee of equal rights
and freedoms for men and
women, elimination of a
three-year delay in im-
-anti-dis-
crimination provisions and

_ addition of the rights to

abortion and equal
economic opportunity. ©
They want marital
status, sexual orientation
and political belief added :

as prohibited grounds for -

discrimination.

If these changes are not
made, the women suggest
the constitution should be
patrialed withouta charter
and that a charter could be
drawn up later by a

MONTREAL (CP) — |
A Montreal philosopher '
says computer models
and scientific theories of
management rarely
count for much in the
decisions of senior
executives. .

Dr. Paul Germain,
guest professor of public
administration at the

Montreal, made the
observation in a recent
_ Study for the federal
communications
department of ‘‘the
impact of new commu-
nications techniques on
management and
organization,”
Despite the im-
provement in in-
formation and com-

. University of Quebec at .

mimication techniques
during the last 25 years, .
be says, there has been —
no “corresponding —
improvement in the flow

of communications to’
thé benefit of managers

of organizations.”

From the early 1050s"
to the mid-1970s, the
most popular theories
involved so-called
“scientific management
coupled to the immense

. resources of great and
costly data banks.”

“The idea was that
mathematical
and great computers
could finally vanquish:
top management's
worst nightmare, that of
having to run the

‘for technleal'* reasons
and partly because of

philosophy. of
management” which
was supposed to inspire.
‘managers who used’

Germain, . trained, in'
philosophy at Harvard

‘ and at the Gregorian .-

University - in Rome, .
says big computers and’

complicated for.

“as well, because of.

their very nature, they

- ended up being used
‘more for storing and —

munications. between
people.”

Germain, who
founded a group called
Philosophers Look Upon
Technology . Openly, .
says theories of

’ gelentific management .
totally _ misunderstood
what managers actually
do.

“Such views were
extremist, in that they.
gave far too much
importance tao
preconceived
mathematical models.

“Instinetively, ,”

business leaders
decided these models
had little relationship to
‘the daily ‘reality which
they had to face and,
reasonably, they did not
worry about the theories
more than necessary.”

Germain says ‘much
Management: - activity
involves thinking about
human factors related
to production. But as
production becomes
increasingly - auto-
mated, the manager's
function will change
radically.

Communications

will be more flexible

Aitken, who took the lead
with Labor MP George

Foulkes in setting up anall- |

party group of British
backbenchers to study the
Canadian _patriation
problem, said that ““Anglo-
Canadian relations are
already beginning to suffer
from. tensions and
misunderstandings.”
“These are arising as a
result of Prime Minister
Trudeau's proposals for the
patriation of the British
Nocth America Act and
additional Canadian .con-.

_ Which the federal governs:

ment of Canada will ask to
have enacted by West-
minster within the next few

weeks,

are expressing increasing
pessimism about ‘the
chances of the proposed
. legislation getting through
the British Parliament this
session.” :
Aitken ‘contends that
“other groups and party
committees ‘have found.
such similar reactions that
I think it is ‘now fair to
predict that Westminster
could find itself in a
deadlock _ over this
Canadian legislation.”
Given the unusual
