Canadian Parliament Defeats Motion To Release Communications
In Ottawa on November 7 the Commons voted 102 to 91 against a CCF motion demanding production of communications between Chief Investigator T L Daniels of the Prices Stabilization Corporation and Investigator C C Cardoza about investigations into price frauds and related matters. Speaker Fauteux ruled the records privileged and not in the public interest. The opposition pressed for a division as resignations and inter-departmental correspondence were cited, with Cardoza's resignation taking effect November 17 after alleging restricted activities and uncovered frauds. Cardoza claimed recoveries of about 1,000,000 for the government. Justice St Laurent announced a joint Canadian delegation to the United Nations preparatory commission meeting in London, chaired by L D Willgress.
