De Gaulle predicts independent Quebec
By George Sibera
PARIS—(UPI)—French President Charles de Gaulle called Monday for more freedom for French-speaking Canada and predicted that the Province of Quebec would someday become an independent nation. He promised full cooperation with a free Quebec.
De Gaulle's speech, which cited the "liberating passion" among Quebec's masses, reopened his war with the Canadian government started last summer during a visit to Canada when he said, "long live free Quebec!"
That statement led to a public rebuke from Canada's Prime Minister Lester B. Pearson and a decision by De Gaulle to cut short his visit to Quebec and Montreal. Monday's press conference appeared certain to create new tension between the Paris and Ottawa governments.
No immediate reaction
There was no immediate reaction from Pearson but, in a speech Monday, Pearson attacked De
Gaulle's policies and said he was dividing the Western world as Chinese Communist Chairman Mao Tse-tung had divided the Communist world. Pearson used such words as "shortsighted," "wrong," "discredited" and "dangerous" to describe De Gaulle's actions.
The De Gaulle speech struck like a bombshell in Toronto where the premiers of Canada's provinces were holding a "confederation of tomorrow" conference. First reaction ranged from amusement to silence and anger.
De Caulle said the French and Quebec governments soon would hold a summit meeting in Paris.
He demanded that French-speaking Canadians in New Brunswick and elsewhere be allowed to join fellow citizens in Quebec to cooperate with France towards the creation of an Atlantic French-speaking community. He also demanded special political privileges for French-speaking Canadians in English-language Canada.

Police grab diner robber
SEATTLE, Wash. — (UPI) — It was a steak out instead of a sake out, but the results were the same for Seattle police patrolmen Bruce Johnson and George Sorenson.
They had sauced their sirloins in the Cottage Restaurant Sunday night when they heard the cashier scream and saw a man running out the door with a fistful of money from the till.
The officers gave chase, arrested and booked the culprit, and returned to finish their steaks—which were now bigger, jucier and free.
You don't pay enough for what you get.
Optional extras on most other cars come free on the Volkswagen Karmann Ghia.
If your back's not adjustable, the back of the front seat is. (In three positions.)
Extras like disc brakes up front. A window defroster in the rear. Bucket seats in the middle. And door pockets on the side.
The Karmann Ghia is hand-shaped, hand-welded and hand-painted (four times). And it looks like a $5000 car.
But it's only, $2367.00
The extras aren't extra.

WHY DID AETNA SPEND ALMOST ONE MILLION DOLLARS LAST YEAR IN SUPPORT OF HIGHWAY SAFETY?
It makes sense to reduce auto accidents. Everybody benefits. Fewer mishaps mean fewer claims. And fewer claims help lower automobile insurance rates.
More important, it's good corporate citizenship. Aetna Life & Casualty is a leader in the business. And we think it's up to us to act like it.
We've made an honest effort over the years:
Etna became one of the thirteen founders of the National Safety Council in 1913.
Later we helped organize the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.
And we were the first to design a device to test driver reaction time.
Each year Etna engineering services help the drivers of thousands of trucks, buses and other commercial vehicles improve their safety records.
Today, one out of every seven high school students in the country who complete a driver education course are being trained on the first successful classroom driving simulator — the Eetna Drivotrainer System.
Our business may be selling insurance.
But our concern is people.
