Provinces May Bc Forced To Fail In Linc

(By Douglas How)

OTIlAWA. May 3-(C'P)—Oplnien was widely expressed early tonight after indefinite adjournment of the Dominion-Provincial Conference that the Dominion would imple- ment its unacceptsd proposals when it brings down its budget for the current session of Perils- ment. ‘

Hovincisl Premiers were among those who predicted the Federal Government would go ahead with its far-reaching plans and is: the chips fall where they may.

Just what form of administrative confusion would be born of such I "90 U"! future would have to decide but there was no disposi- tion among several Premiers to accept it with pessimism.

Come foresaw little the Pmvin- ces could do to forestall the Dom- lnion plans and predicted that the Provinces would have difficulty in finding a course that would not see them forced to conform to the

Prime Minister Mackenzie King smiiingily shook hands with the Premiers, then walked with rs. porters part way down the long corridor between the Senate and his office.

Premier Drew of Ontario, em- erslnc from another room, sold the next step was up to Ottawa. He had already blamed the Dom- inion Government for responsobll- ity for any failure to agree.
