LONDON (AP) - Prime Minis- ier Macmillan said Thursday night he believes history will jus- tify the British-French invasion oi the Middle East last fall.

The prime minister made only passing reference to the Miedle East venture which led to the downfall of his predecessor, Sir Anthony Eden. But in a speech licl-oted largely to the future of ill-ltnin as a nation, he said. ''I believe history will justly what in did.',', g I .

"The difficulties "we are up against are the price we are pay- Inlz for action." he said in a coun- try-wide television and radio address. "But the price d inac- tion. the price we would have had to pay for letting things slide, that might have been very high indeed.”

As in the future, Macmillan said with emphasis that Britain it A sreat llltloa that is deter mined to stay great.

He said the partnership with the United States will be pre- served and strengthened. but added: "We don'tVltand to satellites."

In a brief reference to national ” ' Macmillan said Britain said Britain has obligations to it- self and to its partners. . "We must carry our fair share. but not more than our fair share." he said. "We're going to make sure that we're not spend- ing money on things we don't need and on oommltmuts we can't sustain. "There must be no waste of money. No vested interest how- ever strong, and no tradltions' however good, must stand in our way." In a material sense. Macmillan said. Britain cannot match the re-

It had made no mention of fed- eral monetary measures which could affect the area either for good or bad.

The Social Credit motion was prese ted by F. D. Shaw (SC- Red eerl.

it criticized the government for "failure to take effective action to stop the continuous rise" in liv- ing costs, to provide a policy giv- ing farmers an equitable share in Canada's prosperity, or to bring old age pensions and other social security measures into line with living costl.

Mr. Shaw called for a 820 in- crease in the S40 monthly pension paid to all Canadians 70 and over. He ploposed a simila increase in the old ge assistance paid by fed- eral and provincial governments 3 needy persons between 65 and

Members of all parties, includ- ing a number of I'bsrals have been urging higher payments for old age and blind pensions and family allowances.

The Social Credit non-confld ence " is an amendment to an earlier motion by the Progres- sive Conservatives.

RESTRICTIONS P00!

Mr. lice-s said the Gordon Commission "conveniently" for; got that the government's tight- lnoney policy was laamstringing the housing industry and forcing many businesses into bankruptcy.

The commission had suggested no policy to meet its forecast of

increasing power needs in Can-

ada. In that field the government itself had a ';do nothing hupe-and- grope" policy.

Mr. Macllachen said there is value in the nu mission's pro- posal for a board with .ederal- financial aid which would recom- mclld public projects in the Mari-I times.

But he said the commissionl was out of step with the feeling of quiet optimism in the Mari- times.

RAISE WAGES

One way in which the federal government could help raise in- comes of Maritime workers would be to pay the same wages to all its so-called prevailing rates em- ployees across the country.

C.W. Carter IL-Burln-Gurgeol said the Gordon report must be accepted as an honest attempt to appraise the possbiillties of the next 25 years.

He referred to the commission's proposal that efforts be made to bring living standards in the At- Iantic provinces closer to those in the rest of the country, The report said that if the area's re- sources were Inadequate to ac- complish that. help should be given to residents wanting to move elsewhere.

,The Newfoundland member said care must be taken not to sub- stitute purely economic considera- tions for human considerations. It was more in the national in- terest to do whatever possible to raise living standards in the At- lantic provinces than to "com-

pletely denude" the area.

On this basis. officials concede that not all of the estimates for the I31-bl fiscal year will be ap proved by Parliament in that time and that the government will ask for an interim supply of money to carry out adminls anon during the summer months.

The first session of the new Psi-. liament would then be held next fall to reintroduce and complete discussion of the main and supple DGINU estimates. if a new gov- ernment repiacss the Liberals. the ellimltes could be amended be- UIGY are presented to the new Parliament.

Thirty-nine died in the gas en- plosion in the pit, but only 11 bodies were recovered. Eighty- eight trapped men were . ued.

The mine has been sealed since the rescue Nov. 5 but there may be danger of another explosion. Mines superintendent William F. Campbell said adjoining No. 2 mine of the Cumberland Railway and Coal Co. would be clsred of men before No. 4 was entered.

The mine area would be roped off. he said. Only men involved in the operation would be penalt- ted nesr the pithesd.
