French lajj.s behind TORONTO (CP) The teaching of French in Ontario lags far behind both the national and local concern for bilinguaiism, says a brief prepared by Toronto Board of Edncation officials. The brief, to be presented to the Ontario education ministry's committee on the teaching of French, says the ministry has provided neither the guidance nor funds to allow schools to keep pace with demand for French instruction in' Toronto. The brief says the Toronto board spends an average of $57 a student annually to provide 20 minutes of French instruction daily from Grades 5 to 8 in elementary schools. But the board receives only $10 a student in grants from the province for French instruction. Local taxpayers pay the $47 difference.

It happened before, in the 1966 rail strike, when some workers dawdled for three days in bowing to Parliament's will. But this time the peril is greater. Resentment, as non-op union leaders call it of Parliament's "interference," runs deep. And it is widespread strong on the West Coast, militant across the Prairies, already flaring in Toronto and Western Ontario and mounting across the Maritimes.

There was a demonstration Tuesday in Toronto with some 1,500 strikers from Metro, Os-hawa and Hamilton milling through the 95-degree heat from City Hall to Union Station to proclaim their defiance. That defiance came in the words of Ross Jones, president of the Metro non-op local: "We're not going to follow like sheep again this time." Today, on Parliament Hill, union members were busy pre-surring parliamentarians for an "adequate settlement" something reasonably close to the demanded 21 per cent over two years.

Mr. MacKenzie says recent tenders received at city hall for various other projects show there is a clear acceleration trend in construction cost increases which are now running between one and one-half per cent a month.

"There are also material shortages and no doubt contractors build into their prices an element of protection against delays from this cause," he said. He said the city is in the throes of a heavy building program and has $3.2 million' set aside for construction of the FUNNY SIDE UP "WHO WON?"

K. McLaren, manager of the Canadian Trucking Association, says applications have been made to the Canadian Transport Commission for temporary permits for trucks to move freight on Sunday. He says many companies report a large back up of freight. "Drivers are at a premium, and they are working flat out.

Mini-sub unable to surface LONDON (UPI) Pisces JIT, a mini-submarine engaged wnh a parent ship on cable-layig 150 miles southwest of Coilk, Southern Ireland, reported it was unable to surface, its owners Vickers Oceanics Ltd. said today. The company said the submarine's two-man crew were alive and well.

The spokesman said there was full life-support on board the Pisces. It said another submersible craft is being flown to Cork from Scotland to help in the rescue operation. The Vickers spokesman said Pisces' position has been buoyed. The crewmen are Roger Ralph Chapman, 28, married, no children and Roger Mallinson, 35, married, with three children. Both have been on many operations with Pisces vessels.

"In several cases we know that highway freighting has made the difference whether companies can carry on in business or not," be said. He said many companies keep a smaller inventory now than they used to, and railway freight has beeen used as a sort of conveyor belt. Now, with the rail strike on, firms can run out of stock in 24 hours. Mr. McLaren said in normal times, highway trucking runs close to capacity, and with the added strain of the rail strike, "there just isn't the leeway for the added service." He said companies have stepped up their tempo to pick up the slack and drivers are on the road for longer hours.

Canadian rail-highway, piggyback services stalled by the strike have been swinging south of the border and using U.S. piggy back systems, with trucks going over the border to pick up shipments for Canadian delivery.

The rains added to an already serious flood problem and drove more people from their homes The Associated Press said late figures from the quake areas 120 to 220 miles south and east of Mexico City indicated more than 500 persons died in the devastating earth shock at 3:51 a.m. Tuesday. It was the highest death toll of an' earthquake in Mexico since the keeping of such records started in the early 1900s.

Reuters news agency said an official communique put the death toll at 575. The Quake, coming during the worst rainy season in 30 years, extended a disaster area that already covered much of central Seventy-six persons have died in floods in the last month, the homes of more than 400,000 have been damaged and millions of dollars worth of crops have been ruined. The earthquake, which registered 6.S on the open-ended, Richter scale, struck at least 24 cities, towns and villages along the Sierra Madre range in the states of Puebla and Veracruz. In Richter measurements, an earthquake of 7.0 is 10 times more severe than one of 6.0, which Is 10 times greater than one of 5.0. That is because the Richter scale measures wave -magnitudes and not something like an increase in automobile speed from 60 miles an hour.

Huge cracks opened in the earth in Puebla state, into which homes and other buildings tumbled. The craters spouted dust for hours, until afternoon rains damped it. Ciudad Serdan, 170 miles east of Mexico City, appeared to be in the centre of the area hit hardest. There were reports of up to 250 dead in that city of 22,000 persons and its adjacent villages.
