OTTAWA. March S -— (OP) --—A spirited and growing opposition de- mand for the establishment of a permanent House comm'ttee de- voted to the study o! the problems o! former servicemen developed in the Commons today as veterans af- fairs came uplor debate for {he first time in this PA-months-old session of Pariirment.

Coupled with this request was a Progressive Conservative amend- irnent, placed before the chamber by Col. AJ. Brooks (PC-St. John- Albcrt). which would have the et- fect of extending to wartime mem- bers o! the merchant navy the same benefits now granted to [Q2- vice veterans.

The debate developed when Vat- erans Minister Gregg moved a Government motion for the estab- lishment of a House cOmmIttee on veterans affairs. the first since the 1946 session, and announced that increased allowances for man-leg student veterans will be ‘reflected in cheques UDBIIECI out at the end of March.

He disclosed also that recently. announced increases for disabled pensioners, rwar widows and 4e. pendents could be sent to recip. lcnis in early April if the House gal/e RPPTOVﬂI 0f the enabling leg~ isiation before Easter.

The students’ increases were put; through by order-In-councll.

Promises Dong Debata

As the debate developed. promis- l": to be a day-long affair. the lellgtheﬂing speakers list included Victor Quech (szpnicadya), Haw. ard Green (PC-Vancouver South), Waiter Tucker iL-Rosthern). chainrnan of the last veterans com. mltce. George Cruickshank (1, _ Fraser Valley). EB. McKay (QQF_ Wﬁybllrrl) and Ciarie Gillie (COP -Cape Breton South).

M°VIHB I Prosressive conserva- tive amendment to the motion for establishment of s. veterans’ com. nut-tee. Col. Brooks brought to the attention of the House a protest by a Canadian Legion meeting last fall against "apparent (115. crimination” against wa.r veterans in favor of political workers.

Before the Legion meeting was a. letter by “a Halifax County Lib- eral Party chairman" which "frankly stated that a war veter- an to hold a Government job must vote for the Liberal Party."

Col. Brooks said he knew o! similar, cases in his own Province of New Brunswick and protested that "it is not good for a country

"These job holders have become arrogant and arbitrary," he said. “They are the little dictators. the little tyrants of the political party m their own districts...

"Their main idea. is to keep their Government in power so they may protect their jobs."

Mr. Quelch, endorsing the sug- gestion tor a standing "veterans committee, said it could be called to meet at any time. He agreed with other members that the Clov- emments proposed increases in pensions and allowances were in- adequate.

Mtr. Green said several Cabinet Ministers had indicated that they felt that the merchant navy had constituted the "fourth" arm of the forces. Their casualty list had been heavy.

Any member who voted against the amendment would be doing a great injustice to the seamen There had been “great unfairness" to these men through the Gov- ernment's failure to grant them benefits.

This brings up a point on which the London conferecs made no announcement, 'l‘hat is whether dismantlement a: German plants is to be continued under the old reparations and disarmament program.

The United States has been in- clined to stick to the old Pota- dam a-greemens. insofar as it ap- plies to Western Allies of the United states for fear that with- holding oi.’ the plants would create trouble with them.

But the Western mrcpaan countries were to receive lela than 50 per cent of these plants anyway. Since the agreement was made their economies have been bolster- ed by a great many time: that much in American aid with more to come.

The size of mrope‘: total pro- duction in the next four years, in- cluding everything which can be exchanged abroad for food and raw materials, will determine the success or failure of the Marshall Plan. The logical course to follow would seem to be to make the maximum use of every existing plant now, leaving reparations and cvcn industrial disarmament to the time when Germany's lovereigniq is about to be returned.’
