Premier Robarts of Ontario, whose province now has a plan apparently fulfilling the federal conditions, was just as obvi- ously pleased. He estimated ; Saskatchewan would receive $12,000,000. } But Mr.

Ontario's plan, due to go into effect June 1, 1966, provides for the sale of standard medical care contracts by private insur- ance companies to anyone who wants to buy. There is no. compulsion.

Premier Robarts said he would reserve .comment _ until later.

But though other premiers were known in advance to be pressing for increased federa! grants to universities, Mr. Pear’ son made no mention of the sub ject in his opening speech.
