Pearson asked if the inter governmental agreement being worked out in regard to Continental air defence win be discussed and agreed on in the House of com Mons before it becomes effective As an inter governmental agree ment. That was the question thai touched off the miniature debate prime minister Diefenbaker Hac obviously been waiting for such a query. And he. Had what he thought was an effective answer. He said the question gave Hirr an Opportunity to review what hat occurred of aug. 17, 1940, when the late it. Hon. W. L. Mackenzie King and the late president Roose velt came to an agreement known As the Ogdensburg agreement. A joint statement cad been issued a that time. Or. King simply referred to it and placed it before parliament without a discussion the experience of the past he said concerning matters of secur Ity was that they had been re ported on generally. That is not interjected or. Martin. That is the course that will be followed in this connection unless the official opposition insists on a discussion of these matters.

Pearson said i think that on this Side we have a fall sense of responsibility in these matters and that we will discharge that sense of responsibility in the proper Way. But in View of what the prime minister has said i should like to Point out that the parallel he mentioned the Ogdensburg agreement is not a parallel at All the arrangement to which he referred was a wartime one and did not touch on the control of Canadian forces in the sense of putting those forces under the con Rol of an.

The prime minister the head of the government bears the responsibility for deciding what will not be produced in the so far As we Are concerned we would certainly not expect him to produce any information in the House which would prejudice the Security of the country or the Al Liance. The prime minister surely is in a position to judge whether the answers already Given on this matter have not been confusing and.
