Hs shot PM To Name Cabinet Aides i BY CHARLES KING Xha Journal's Ottawa Bureau OTTAWA Some parliamentary assistants to cabinet ministers will be appointed on Monday, Prime Minister Dtef-enbaker said Wednesday.

He would not confirm that all 14 vacancies will be filled. There has been speculation that some of the remaining 11 Conservative members who held parliamentary assistant-ships In the last Parliament will be replaced. One Raymond O'Hurley (Lotblniere) has already been promoted to the cabinet as minister of defence production. He was parliamentary assistant to mines minister Paul Comtois. Angus Macdonald, who sat for Antigonlsh Ouysborough, N.S., and was parliamentary assistant to Transport Minister George Hees.

did not seek re-election In the March 21 vote. Parliamentary assistants are paid $4,000 a year on top of their $10,000 parliamentary Indemnities. They have been regarded In the past as potential cabinet material. Mr. Diefenbaker made the announcement to two reporters as he left a Conservative caucus.

"Will all the vacancies be filled?" he was asked. "I won't say that now." he replied. In the past, the honor has gone on a largely geographical basis to outstanding MP's. In the 23rd parliament, there were eight from Ontario and one each from Quebec, Alberta, Manitoba, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. B.C.

Although no new appointments were made before Parliament opened, those MP's who held them In the last House have continued to occupy benches Immediately behind and around the cabinet. Western parliamentary assistants In the last Parliament were Marcel Lambert (Edmonton West, and Walter Dins-dale (Brandon Souris.

Mr. Lambert was assistant to Defence Minister George Pearkes and Mr. Dinsdale to Veterans' Affairs Minister Alfred Brooks. Dr. H.

T. Coutts, dean of the faculty of education at the University of Alberta, said Wednesday he saw little to disturb him in public education being a responsibility of the provinces. "I do not believe that any provincial government will or can surrender completely Its control of teacher education and certification. How It uses this control and how it shares its responsibility will determine the nature and quality of its teacher education program," he said. Dean Coutts outlined the relationship existing in Alberta between the government's department of education and the faculty of education to the Canadian Conference of Deans and Professors of Education meeting as part of the Conference of Learned Societies at the University of Alberta.

He suggested that other education institutions that do not have similar working liaisons with their provinces might 1 adopt some of these measures, I Dr. H. L. Stein, of the faculty of education at the University of British Columbia, told the conference the maintenance of a professional outlook in teaoh-lng is extremely difficult. He also said there was a tendency for graduates of teacher training institutions to neglect or negate some of the principles, theories, and even techniques they have been taught.

He said there is need for developing a continuing rela- tionship between the institu- tion and its graduates. He suggested such measures as bringing back graduates to LONDON (Reuters) The Queen today awarded honors and titles to more than 2.200 of her subjects in recognition of achievements in fields ranging from bicycle riding to scientific research.
