Hon. C. D. Howe act ing As an executor of the late sir James Dunn s s66.000.000 estate. One of the main progressive conservative objections was that sir James headed Algoma steel corp. Of Sault . Marie ont., a firm which they said is affected by the government s defence production policies. Or. Howe and his parliament Ary assistant John Dickey Halifax contended that there is no conflict of interest Between the minister s position As a Cabinet member and As an executor of the estate. Davie Fulton chief opposition critic of retention of both jobs by the minister said or. Howe is making an absurd rationalization to justify an impossible position. Or. Howe could not be an executor and a Cabinet minister without moral conflict. He would either have to abdicate his private duty As an executor or there would be disadvantageous results to Canada. Or.

Howe did t want to resolve the conflict then he should be ordered to do so by prime minister St. Lau rent. He maintained that Federal government policies have e bearing on the value of the shares of Al Goma steel. Affairs of the steel Industry in general were affected by the pipeline Bill which had been jammed through Parlia ment. Or.
