TORONTO (CP) — A group Canadians working in South merica have made a major fos-

discovery that will help sci- nlists fill in the picture of life nearth 20.000 to 50,000 years go_ the Royal Ontario Museum

Two sharp-eyed Canadian geol- gjsts working in the oilfields =near Talara, Penn, made the dis- my/ery when they saw fossil es in a gravel pit used by ~ 'hway - repair crews. A mu- nm-sponsored expedition went Peru, and after six weeks of 'gging, uncovered enough speci- ens to keep a team of scien- ‘ts busy for 20 years. lrour tons of specimens now ue being cleaned and restored at ‘the museum in Toronto. hey include bones of mastodons, rocodiles, camels, horses, giant ths, sabre-toothed cats, flesh-

Officials say the end result of the work will -be a series of sci- entific publications, an important research collection for further entific publications, an important research collection study and anew public gallery at the Royal Ontario Museum which ranks among the top dozen such institutions in the world.

The study of fossil and insects is important since they ancestors of modern species, but many groups now extinct often throw light on the relationship of exist- ing animals and plants. OCCURRED IN ICE AGE

Last year, Dr. Hugh MacDon- ald and Bob Fraleigh, Canadians with the International Petroleum Company at Talara, spotted the fossils uncovered by highway crews. They shipped a crate of specimens back to the museum where Dr. MacDonald once stud- ied.

Dr. Gordon Edmund of Tor- onto, ‘expedition leader and cura- tor of vertebrate palaeontology at the museum, asked to have the gravel pit closed. In Janu- ary he left for Peru with Dr. Roy Lemon and Ralph Hornell of the museum and trained Peru- vian laborers to dig the fossils.

The specimens were shipped back to the Toronto museum for sorting and identification. Dr. Edmund expects to reconstruct some complete animals.

Proposes Special Measures For Atlantic Area Housing

OTTAWA (C-P}l——Special federal

-_ measures to provide housing for

Atlantic area residents with be- low-average incomes were pro- posed in the Commons Friday by Chesley W. Carter L —- Burm- Burgeo).l

Speaking on a government res- olution to make available another $350,000,000 for direct federal housing loans, the Newfound- lander said the basis of distribu- tion of the money is unfair. Most of it went where incomes were highest.

He said he is sure that of $400,- 000,000 in federal money already

- loaned for housing an “unduly

large” share went to the wealthy

provinces of Ontario and British Columbia and that Newfoundland had received the smallest share of all.

There should be a more equit- able basis for the distribution thamthe basis of Canada's aver- age income. Few in Newfound- land had incomes high enough to benefit from the legislation.

Mr. Carter proposed federal funds be made available for low- cost housing for those with be- low-avera;-ze earnings.

He also urged low-cost housing for fishermen who don’t need homes -‘built to standard specifi- cations, and government encour- agement for cooperative house building groups.

Suggests'Gov’t. Pay Half Interest On Housing Loans

By BERNARD DUFRESNE

OTTAWA (OP) — Quebec Lib- eral Alexis Caron Friday sug- gested the federal government to follow the lead of his home province and pay half the inter- est charges on housing loans.

The MP for Hull, 21 city of about 40,000 population of which ‘he was mayor in 1953-55, joined other opposition critics in the -Commons in attacking the “high” rate of six per cent on federally- approved housing loans.

The provincial government, he said, pays about three per cent in interest charges for loans ap- proved under provincial hous- ing legislation, thus reducing by about half the borrower's charges.

The Quebec plan, which he de- scribed as a good one and helpful to property owners in low-income brackets, should be adopted by Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation, the federal housing agency. P ri v a t e lenders still could charge six per cent on their mortgage loans, the -borrower paying three per cent and the federal authority three per cent. APPROVE HOUSING BELL

The suggestion came as the Commons approved government legislation making available an additional $350,000,000 in federal funds for housing loans adminis- tered by CMHC.

Earlier in the housing debate,

which began Thursday night, Works Minister Green rejected a Liberal proposal for lower inter- est rates on the ground such ac- tion would tend to drive private lenders -— insurance companies, chartered banks and trust com- panies——into other fields of in- vestment. Mr. Green noted Friday the National Housing Act stipulates CMHC mortgage rates must not exceed the rate on long-term gov- ernment bonds by more ‘than 2‘/4 per cent.

He said that as of May 1 the rate on these 20-year bonds was four per cent. Thus the CMHC rate could be as high as 6% per cent, although it currently is six per cent.

The housing measure later was introduced in the Senate and will come -before the upper chamber for a second reading —- approval in principle—Monday night. OPPOSITION SUPPORT --

While critical of some features -1;" of federal housing legislation and

making proposals for greater government aid to the home-

aid should be made available for clearing blighted areas to be used for commercial purposes or parks, as well as housing.

Mr. Caron joined J. P. Descha telets (L—-Montreal Maisonneuve- Rosemont) and others in propos- ing Ottawa join with provincial and municipal governments in providing housing lots.

At present, they said, many speculators buy large tracts of land at low cost. subdivide them into housing lots and sell them at high prices, thus contributing to the high cost of home owner- ship.

CCF members Frank Howard, Skeena, and H. W. Herridge, Kootenay West, went further in

suggesting t-hat CMHC be recon- stituted into a sort of credit union which would make housing loans available at a rate of two per cent. This interest rate would just cover administrative costs and make a small allowance to- wards possible losses.

lVlr. Howard said the present “usurous” rates mean that over the normal 25-year repayment period a borrower pays $919 in interest charges for each $1,000 borrowed. thus paying almost twice the sale price of his home.

Other developments in parlia- ment Friday:

1. Prime Minister Diefenbaker

enal-provincial fiscal conference.

2. External Affairs Minister Smith said the government has no intention of appointing a royal commission to investigate the case of E. Herbert Norman, former Canadian ambassador to Egypt who committed suicirlei last spring after renewed U.S senatorial charges of Communist associations.

3. Senator D onald Cameron (Ind-L —— Alberta) suggested a senate investigation into abuses of the unemployment insurance fund, including benefits paid to individuals not entitled to them.

“A tremendous number of abuses are creeping into our wel- fare legislation," he said as the Senate approved a bill extending by six weeks — to June 28 —- the period during which seasonal un- employment benefits may be paid.

The unemployment insurance lbill, -along with a bill granting the government interim supply of $626,000,000 until t.he end of May, later was given royal assent.
