Mr.

In

letter.
Mr.
Wilson
pointed
out
that
he
had
been
granted
permission
to
attend
the
convention
in
May
but
It
had
been
postponed
because
of

at

There
were
complaints
as
to
the
frequency
of
Mr.

and
It
was
suggested
he
might
be
asked
to
find
a
substitute
to
attend
the
convention
rather
than
to
leave
his
school
just
when
it
was
becoming
organised.
It
was
pointed
out
that
Mr.
Wilson
did
not
ask
for
leave
for

than

that

OTTAWA
Oi

today
gavb
notice
that
he
proposes
to
seek
consumer
credit
controls
during
the
current

of

Buyers
will
have
to
shell
out
bigger
down

on

purchases
of
such
Items
as

The

does
not
intend
to
increase

required
in

of

purchase
of

The

This
is
a

It
dates
down
from

almost
solidly
against

C.C.F.

parties
joining
with
the
Progressive-Conservatives.
Before
seeking
the

Mr:

warned
again
of

menace
in

and
reiterated
demands
for
tightening
of
the

to
"deal

Mr.

also
charged

"evasion"
in

When
he
threw
out
his
call
for

Mr.

charged
that

more
information
about
