Friday, September 6, 1974 The Ottawa Journal iff OVER TO YOU Retiring Hull provincial court Judge Arthur "Ubbe congratulates newly sworn-ln Judges Maurice Chevalier (welfare court) and Gerard Charron (provincial court) at a ceremony In Hull Court House Thursday (Journal-CP Photo) Banker sees rosy future for Canadian economy REGINA (CP) Earle McLaughlin, president of the Royal Bank of Canada, said Thursday that Canada's economic future looks excellent in spite of problems in other areas of the world. VThe view is rosy and the1 general slowdown in the rest of the world hasn't affected Canada to the same degree," he said in an interview. Mr. Gatineau probe aid I Hull's legal aid centre has offered $2,500 and its to help set up an inquiry Into the Gatineau River flood-. t)ig earlier this year that ra-; vaged homes from Maniwaki to Gatineau Point.

George Marceau, a legal lawyer in -Maniwaki, 80 -miles north' of Hull, said the plan is to have municipalities affected by the -floods contribute toward the Estimated $35,000 cost of turning engineers and specialists to make the study. The Roman Catholic diocese has already contributed $3,000. Ha sniH that if resnnnfti- tility can be established for the flooding, court action McLaughlin of Montreal is here to attend a quarterly meeting of the Royal Bank's board. He said recent federal statistics showing little or no growth in the goods and set- vices produced In Canada should not cause concern because "a little levelling off won't harm the fight against flooding offered could then be taken to compensate victims in full for -damage suffered during the floods. The Quebec government is providing some financial assistance but only "to give them a hand" getting back on their feet "This inquiry would only make proof available for people who couldn't pay for a study themselves," Mr.

Marceau said. Quebec Hydro took much of the criticism for -the flooding when they opened the flood gates at a dam on the Bas-katong Reservoir, about 50 miles north of Maniwaki. United Nations peace forces arranged a truce. Earlier Thursday, Vice-President Rauf Denktash, the leader of the Turkish-Cypriots, announced that he and President Glafkos derides, head of the Greek-Cypriots, would meet today to discuss ways alleviate the plight of the estimated refugees driven from their homes by the fighting on the island.

UK It T- Trz The bank president said the Royal, which has 1,322 branches across Canada in addition to 166 in other countries, was not "scared" by international banking developments which have seen several failures, particularly in Germany. J'Most of them are very small private banks and they, failed because of poor management or skullduggery or a combination of bom," he said. "Some failed because of speculation i foreign exchange and were considered fringe banks." Mr. McLaughlin added there "undoubtedly" will be more failures in future, "but nothing in comparison with the 1930s." to boost Raiders Nepean Reeve Andy Hay-don said today his township will give all the support it can to the financially-ailing Nepean Raiders Hockey club.

The club, a Junior A' franchise with players up to 21 years of age, has been losing about $9,000 a year for the past few years, said the reaver The club now owes $10,000 for equipment purchases. Explaining that helping the club to bring in more paying fans is to help the township, Reeve Haydon said the municipality will take over the sale of tickets, media relations and publicity and promotion for the Raiders. The club provides a good brand of hockey said the reeve, and should be helped along as much as possible. In addition to the tickets and publicity, Nepean will advance a $10,000 short-term, interest-free loan to get the equipment suppliers out of the.way. A proposal to buy the club from the five owners was turned down, said Reeve Haydon.

Last month arbitrators acting on a complaint from Van-ier ordered the city to pay the Ottawa board of education an extra $256,545. An OBE official said the dispute is caused by a con-r flict in two 'provincial acts, the education act and the as- sessment act. The arbitrators go by the former, while the OMB usually goes by the lat-- ter.

"They'll have to cnange one of the acts," he com- merited, j. A similar fight among mu- nicipalitJes in the Carleton re-" gion has gone through the OMB and is now being ap- pealed to provincial cabinet. GS group j. pay The engineering and scientific support group of the federal public service, representing some 7,000 employees, Thursday asked an arbitration tribunal for pay increases of 16.4 per cent and a three per cent-plus cost-of-living adjustment for a new two-year agreement The demand was placed before the tribunal by the Public Service Alliance of Canada, bargaining agent for the group. Known as the EG group, it is divided into two su.1 groups ESS (engineering and scientific support) with 6,637 employees and HOT (hospital technician) with 624 employees.

Treasury- board's position offered eight per cent for the ESS sub group effective July 1, 1974, and four per cent for the HOT sub group effective from the same date and from July 1, 1975, a further eight per cent increase across the board to both. In its proposed two-year contract treasury board said the EG group is already getting the $500 cost of living increment on its annual pay effective from April 1, 1974. The last contract expired June 30, 1974. The arbitration tribunal, headed by chairman Dr. A.

W. R. Carrothers, was asked by the alliance for a cost-of-living increase for the second year of the contract plus three per cent. It suggested the three per cent base for cost-of-living the most commonly used base be AIR SHOW SMITHS FALLS AIRPORT SUNDAY SEPT. 8 SHOWTIME 1 P.M.
