Us premiered Schreyer of Manitoba said Friday that the City of Winnipeg would not have been eligible for a Grant from the provincial govern ment to help it buy buses if it had decided not to buy from flyer industries limited. The Premier under question ing at his regular weekly press conference at first said that the same conditions were attached to the Grant As were attached to a similar Grant made last year to metro. Me said everyone knew what those conditions were but under further questioning finally agreed that one of the conditions was that the buses be bought from flyer. Flyer is a subsidiary of the Manitoba development Corpora lion with factories in Winnipeg and Morris. City Council decided Vic clues Day night to accept the prov Ince s offer and to buy 24 Tran sit buses from flyer rather than Call for tenders. Earlier this year the Provin Cial government ordered 115 school buses from flyer without calling for Public tenders.

A Hydro spokesman said Fri Day the talks Over the four Day week during june july and a gust have been under Way for the past three months and both sides were trying to find a workable solution. However the Hydro spokes Man said management consideration of the proposal is based on the fact the Utility must pro vide the same services to the Public that Are provided during a five Day work week. Spokesman indicated there was no thought Given to simply shutting Down Hydro head office services during the three summer months on Fri Days saturdays and sunday. He explained that several of the considerations involved were a 50-50 split among employees with some getting Fri Day off and the others taking monday off but with the that service would be available to customers As usual on these Days. Another proposal both sides were investigating was work for 1971-72, Manitoban on average paid less for the ser vices provided by provincial and municipal governments than citizens in any other prov Ince West of the he indicated the govern ment s efforts at creating the kind of economic and social environment that would bring benefits for All have been impeded by the interjection of groundless concerns and false issues which have served Only to obscure the Basic questions confronting All Manitoban.
