Anti-Semitic Incidents Spread Throughout World
Rockefeller   Still
In   The   Running?
By DAVID ROWNTREE
Canadian Press Staff Writer
When Governor Nelson Rockefeller of New York said he would
not be a candidate for president
this year, the smoke was cleared
from only a part of the battlefield.
To the extent that Vice-President Nixon will be the Republican standard • bearer in the
Nov. 8 vote — barring the most
unexpected developments — the
forthcoming contest has been simplified.
However. Rockefeller would still
bc available if somehow Nixon
couldn't be nominated. Rockefeller's Dec. 2fi statement didn't say
-as it did in regard to the vice-
presidency — lhat he would not
accept the presidential nomina
tion if it were offered to him at
the Republican convention opening
In Chicago July 25.
But as for Nixon's opponent, few
are willing to bet who that may
be. Except for Adlai Stevenson,
there is no other Democrat who
is as well known as Nixon Jo the
voting public or in as strong a
position as he is 11 months before
polling day.
Many Democrats once were delighted by Ihe prospect of t a
Nixon • Rockefeller bte"'" They
expected the Repull* ; ty to
be seriously divided i. -• election time because of the internal
disput thcy foresaw between the
conservative wing, led by Nixon,
. and the less orthodox and more
i forward - looking group headed
bv Rockefeller.
Thousands Mourn
Premier Sauve
MONTREAL (CP) - Thousands
of mourning Quebeeers jammed
th? small town of St. Eustache
Monday to pass quietly by a silver • ornamented bronze casket
and pay hushed homage to Premier Paul Sauve who died Saturday at the age of 52.
Mr. Sauve, a retired brigadier
of the militia and a wartime commanding officer of Les Fusiliers
Mont Royal of Montreal, will be
buried today with full military
honors.
One estimate was that mourners filed past Mr. Sauve's bier in
his family home at the rate of
1.300 an hour for about 14 hours
Sunday. But no actual count was
taken. The lineup of mourners
from near and far started forming at 9 a.m. Monday on aboul
the same scale. There was no
sign of a let up by mid-afternoon.
Visitors came to St. Eustache,
20 miles northwest of Montreal,
by train, bus and car overcrowding the suburban town of
fi.000.
HISTORIC TOWN
St. Eustache is a histor c town
in French Quebec. It was the seat
of a short-lived rebellion in 1837
by French • Canadians against
their English rulers.
The Sauve home is on the site
of the house in which Dr. Jean-
Oliver Chenier, leader of the rebels or "patriotes," lived.
The parish church, where Most
Rev. Emilien Frenetic Bishop of
St. Jerome, Que., will celebrate
a requiem mass today at 11 a.m..
still has the pock marks of Eng-
I lish cannonades.
! Paul-Emile Cardinal Leger of
I Minister Diefenbaker, provincial
'.Montreal will attend and Prime
I premiers and members of their
! cabinets are expected.
Mourners could see a simple
bouquet of flowers, resting at the
side of the body. The card said:
"Maman et tes enfants qui t'ai-
ment." (Mother and your children
who love you.)

By KEN KELLY
Canadian Press Staff Writer
OTTAWA (CP) - Canadian
Md United States officials will be
putting their beads together in the
next week or so to determine a
line of action at a Paris economic
conference later this month with
Western European countries.
The conference may point up
some of the problems likely to
face Canada and the U.S. as a
result of the regional trading
groups being formed in Europe.
About 30 per cent of this country's external trade is tied, up
with the countries involved In the
two regional groups—the European Common Market composed
or France, Italy, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg and the Outer Seven
embracing Britain. Sweden, Nor

eliminating customs duties among t
its members and erecting a common tariff wall around the whole j
area, with the object of raising
living standards of the people in
the area. .

Britain and others of the Outer
Seven are anxious to avoid a European trade war. Canada and the
United States are worried.about
the possible effects two European

walls might have on entry of their
products.

Steel Settlement
Boost For Nixon
WASHINGTON (AP) - Monday's steel contract setlement!
appears to give Vice-President
Richard M. Nixon' the sharpest!
boost yet toward the prime objective of his political He—the
presidency.
But the happy note of an agreement brought about on th* terms
proposed by Nixon and Labor
Secretary James P. Mitchell
could turn sour if it 1, followed
' by an Increase in steel prices and
a jump in the cost of living.
In New York, board chairman
Roger M. Blough of U.S. Steel
Corporation slid his Arm plans

Immediate future as a result of
Ihe new contract agreement.
DOMINANT riGURE
Now unopposed for the Re-
puWieaa presidential nomination,
Nixon emerged from three weeks
ot secret negotiations as the dominating figure in a compromise
that averted what might have
been an economically disastrous
resumption of the steel strike.
Friends think it will not be lost
on the voters that Presiden Eisenhower urned over to Nixon a
role frequently filled by presidents themselves in the past.
Mitchell, who would like to be
second man on a Republican ticket headed by+Nixon, gave full
credit to the.vice-president.

U.S. Steel Strike Ends
By NORMAN WALKER
WASHINGTON   (AP)   -  Thc
worst steel labor battle in U.S.
history ended Monday on terms
recommended by the government.

vice-president respectively.
The agreement calls for a reported 40-ccnts-an-hour boost in
pay  and benefits during a 3D-
' mpnth period running to July 1,
11902.
Specific details were not announced pending ratification today by union and industry
groups. However, it was clear
that the terms exceeded the
bounds of what the industry had
said would be non-inflationary.
That seemed to foretell
