It will be seconded by Mr. Villeneuve. Leaders of the four parties in the House will continue the debate Monday with major addresses on the government's legislative program as outlined in the .peech. The speech dwelt on the international situation and said there will be no slackening next year of Canada's defence efforts. "Much remains to be done before there can be a permanent and durable peace in the world," the speech said.

Other major policies mentioned were a new housing program; added financial help for Ontario hog producers hit by the recent cholera epidemic; improved fish marketings, and a federal-provincial program for I totally-disabled persons. The housing program ls aimed at providing lower down payments, longer mortgage terms and a larger supply of mortgage money by allowing chartered banks to lend on insured home mortgages. Officials said the program for disabled persons would involve pensions to totally-disabled persons of $40 monthly, based on a means test. missiles could be standing by. .?; WEATHER .

The lederal share of such a project, however, had not been determined. The U.S. Atomic Energy Com-missien announced Oct. 22 that It plans to build an Industrial power reactor during the next three or four years.

Whether, it ls a result of Mr. Brown's letter or whether the work had been held back by rain, Mr. Brown was not prepared to say. He sent both a telegram and letter to the minister pointing out that the roads had never been in worse condition and cars of local drivers were taking an awful beating. . Mr. Gaglardi wrote back saying the heavy rainfall was In all probability the cause of the roads being In such a state but that he. didn't know why there was no maintenance equipment on the roads as Mr. Brown had pointed out. There was money available for the work, Mr. Gaglardi assured Mr. Brown, adding that everything would be done to keep the highway in shape. Mr. Brown said today that there had been considerable improvement this last week with equipment working on the worst spots. n Gets Year Forgery The man joined the Communist party in 1949 but dropped out last February, the Senator said. After the session, McCarthy told reporters: "I don't know who ls at fault but I do know there must be something radically wrong when so many Communists are concentrated In a defence plant." He gave no estimate of the number. There was no comment from company officials.

Norman, where he was Joined by Mr. Bond. Skiuper of the police craft, Cpl. Reg Goode, backed out the boat, headed straight across the harbor. Without deviating to port or starboard the police boat continued until Cpl. Goode picked up his binoculars, looked, put them down and told Mr. Bond: "Your boat Is straight ahead." Sure enough the 15-footer was there high and dry on the rocks, not far from Alex Mitchell's cabin, where It had drifted after breaking away from the docks. A jubilant boat owner soon had his cruiser back home, but he's still a little mystified as to how Cpl.

Annually an average of 2,500 Montreal men desert, their ' wives. The 45-year-old detective said In an interview "the figures ar staggering, but It doesn't do the husband any good to run away because we find almost all ot them." To lllustrute las success the detective said: "Recently I made a trip to Sudbury, Ont., and taking the long way round brought back one husband from there, -and four ' from other points." His longest trip was made to Edmonton, but he makes irequent trips through Ontario and Quebec. A notable case was that of a man who leXt bis wife and two children 30 years ago. His wife wanted to find him to qualify for a welfare grant. To get the grant she had to prove he was alive Hnd had deserted her. The man was quickly found in another town where he had married ana raised another family. "It was a strange case because I had to Introduce them all over again. They just did not recognize each other," he said. The law is specific regarding non-support. Any woman who has children can sue for non-support after her husband has deserted her for one month without showing any signs of Intending to send her money regularly. Courts are giving severe sentences to runaway husbands and, oi seven casts tried recently, the husband received jail terms from two monihs to one year.
