J. G. Diefenbaker (PC-Lake Centre) suggested that n commit- tee be established to bring the Criminal Code up to date. He said the mandatory sentence of death for murder should be revised.

Justice Minister St. Laurent said that as long as capital punishment remained it should not be left to the Judge to impose sentence in some cases and not in others. A prisoner usually is held in fail 30 days pending appeal. ‘

Mr. St. Laurent said he believ- ed considerable inconvenience to defence counsel would be caused if the system oi holding a man in common jail after being sentenced to a pentitentiary was changed.

Fisheries Minister Bertrand said careful consideration was being given to proposals for making de- velopment loans and floor prices available to fishermen on the same basis as to farmers. _

Senator David ilrges Uniform History Book

OTTAWA, June 28 - (OP) - History books used in Canadian schools “should be such that the logical deductions of any impartial render would give Canadians. of whatever origin, reasons to be proud of the great. events that took place in this country during the past four centuries." Senator L. A. David said in n. radio address tonight.

speaking over the National Net- work of the Canadian Broadcast- ing Corporation in support of his proposal for a uniform history book, senator David said that "if on account of differences of lan- guage, religion and national ori- gin, the unity so often spoken of in Canada is improbable .. we can establish something which. though quite different from unity,

SUPREME HEADQUARTERS, AbIflED EXPEDI- TIONARY FORCE, June 28 — (AP) -Britiah forces caught the prize inland port of Caen in a steel nutcracker tonight, reaching within four miles southwest of the city in the greatest tank battle of the Normandy invasion and press’ ing down from the north and northeast at distances of two to three miles.

The southwestern flank attack has thrown at least three opposing German Elite Armored Divisions into “com- plete confusion,” a staff officer at Allied field headquart- crs said, while front-line dispatches described the enemy as milling around in confusion all along the front in vain attempts to stem the continuing British advance. Cana- dian artillery is aiding the offensive. _

A headquarters communique late tonight announced continuing progress in spite 0f more bud weather and in- tense opposition.

Both infantry and armored forces cracked through the German’s Odon River line on a two-mile wide front south of Tourville, the communique said, adding: “Our advance continued toward high ground of the Odon.”

The push went on at least two miles pest the Odon and within 2 1-2 miles from the Orns River, 0n which Caen _i_s_ situated.
