By LARRY THORSON LONDON (AP) — Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, whose trade .and industry secretary resigned in a sex scandal, joins a long line of British leaders who have been ‘plagued by similar troubles, some serious, enough to cause concern for national. security. Cecil Parkinson's broken affair with his’ pregnant ; exsecretary, Sara Keays, was not on’ a par with the } devastating Profumo affair in 1968. John Profumo, the war minister in Conservative Prime Minister Harold Macmillan's government, was found to be sharing a mistress with a , Soviet defence attache. ' ‘+. Though it never was.shown that Profumo had leaked - any secrets, the fact that he and a Soviet were both having. affairs wit career. A’ year later Macmillan resigned. \. There was no indication that aiebere Conservative Mr. Parkinson’as what Mrs. Thatcher's Victorians would have called a cad.” i Thetcher has urged Britons to return to the family values of the Victorian age, and the Parkinson jaffatr raised fronies for her that were plain to see. Some news stories noted that Thatcher's husband, Denis, was divorced before they met in 1949. A new of the prime mi: Thatcher, Wife, Mother, Poliiiean by Penny Junor, says she’ was hesitant about pursuing the friendship with Denis because of her distaste for divorce. She decided to go ahead and, Junor writes, “closed her mind. to his past and behaved’ as though his previous marriage had never existed.” Since Thatcher took office in 1979-at least four Conser- vative MPs have been involved in affairs that were h in was by. Pi With no security aspects, the affair anpeeed to be a matter ofa cabinet minister being brought down partly by.unlucky timing. The affair became known as the Conservative party was about to hold its annyal conference in, Black; England. } Keays also went public Friday — the last day of the conference — with a crushing statement taking issue with Parkinson's version of events. In the mass-circulation British tabloids some stories speculated on whether the Tories had a “10-year sex cycle” ~. Profumo in 1968, Lord Antony Lambton in 1973, In December, 1979, Winston Churchill,’ grandson and namesake of the wartime leader, admitted to a five-year affair with Soraya Kashoggi, ex-wife of the wealthy Saudi Arabian Adman Kashoggi. Churchill decided later to stay with his wife, Minnie. Later that year an affair involving Scottish MP Nicholas Fairbairn took a more serious turn. His lover, Pamela Milne, a former secretary in the House of Commons, tried to kill herself after he told her the affair was over. _ Nigel Lawson, now. Thatcher's chancellor of the Parkinson in 1988, with troubles in b REVEALING PHOTO Lambton was air force minister under Conservative .- Prime Minister Edward Heath. He.was photographed in bed with a call girl and admitted to smoking marijuana, causing British security to fear he could have been in danger at divulging secret information. Heath fired Lambton, along with the leader of the House of Lords, Lord George Jellicoe, who admitted visiting call girls. The fear was that Lambton and Jellicoe could have been vulnerable to blackmail. j The Times newspaper carried Keays’s statement as its main. story Friday, apparently leading directly to Parkinson's resignation. Among long commentaries on public morality was a Times editorial that grumbled it would’have been better if the affair had been kept Private. It left a bad taste, the paper said. “The aftertaste comes from the unstable state of. ‘society's attitude to sexuality,” the editorial said. “We rs d his wife in 1980 to marry a librarian in the House of Commons. While Labor MPs are also prone to broken marriages, their affairs seldom have become public scandals, - But the Liberal party has convulsed in 1979, when ‘its then leader, Jeremy Thorpe, was put on trial for plotting to murder a male model, allegedly to silence claims that Thorpe had’ been involved in a homosexual affair.

Humphrey has been living in Surrey with her father, now facing charges in Oklahoma for abduction of his daughter. 2D) Her grandfather, Watie Fine of Sallisaw, Okla., said today he spoke'td‘the girl soon after the union. “She said shWmissed us and wanted to.come home and see us,” saidiiine. “She asked aboyt her pet rabbit. We’ 've been keeping the rabbit for her.,We said it was fine.” Within hours of police learning the girl’s where- abouts, the child, who attended a church school in Surrey, was in the custody of the Ministry of Human. Resources. Her father, James Garland Humphrey, who police said had been living here under an assumed name, was in custody at the Surrey RCMP lockup, awaiting a federal, immigration hearing Monday.

Superior Court Judge Elizabeth Zumwalt on Friday granted temporary custody of Jennifer to her father.

VANCOUVER P par- aded through downtown Sat- urday and elated organizers crowed that rumors of the death of the movement op- posing the British Columbia government's restraint pack- age that slashes jobs and social programs are greatly exaggerated. anni “As you know, a great number of people predicted the death of Solidarity,” said a beaming Art Kube, presi- dent of the B.C. Federation of Labor and a co-chairman of said. the coalition. “This will prove that Solidarity’ is alive and well and growing. “We've proved to the doub that the di hn spite of taunts from the Credit it gs K iat the Solidarity Coalition has lost its momentum, police said the widely-advertised march drew 50,000 partici- pants. The march snaked through the downtown core and took more than two hours to pass the Hotel Vancouver where about 1,200 delegates were of the demise of the coalition is at least five years pre- mature,” Kube told a cheer- ing crowd that jammed a plaza and overflowed into the street. “It's time for them (the government) to take the ear plugs out and start lis- tening. Jack Munro, seer Ls of the was surprised by the large turnout that organizers es- timated at 70,000. “I think the government had been badly counting on this not being a success,” he But neither Munro nor Kube would predict what impact the rally would have on the possibility of a general strike, a scenario painted. previously by the Solidarity Coalition, a broadly-based amalgamation of labor unions, social workers, com- munity and women’s groups, academics and clerics. Premier Bill Bennett,- in the hotel at the time of the march, brushed off sugges- tions of a general strike and all-night sittings of the legis- lature to get passage of bills implementing his policies. But his remarks to report- ers Saturday were moderate compared to the touch line he took against dissenters in a speech that. got standing ovations. from the party's grassroots members Friday. “Certainly: there are large numbers of British Colum- bians who don’t have jobs and want to work, and our goals, our programs are to provide a climate, an affor- dable tax base to fill the shortage of employers that we have to employ those people,” Bennett said as the marchers — many young and unemployed — passed the Se gE aca “esas
