Such a development wduld further weaken Li, who is widely condemned for decl@ring martial law in Beijing in an effort to quash student protests that have inspired the largest spontaneous movement in China’s 40 years of Communist rule . Hu. is in charge of the state-run news media, On Tuesday, some media reports criticized Li’s attempts to have troops crush the peaceful student movement. Although the army's inability to enforce martial law has called into doubt its willingness to follow Li’s orders, the official Xinhua news agency said six of seven military regions supported the decision to call troops to Beijing Only the Beijing military command was not mentioned.

Bagramov, who is on a Canadian tour, said Sovict-Canadian trade now consists mostly of wheat and other grains. But the door is opening for more joint ventures of the kind signed earlier this year between Canadian Fracmas ter Ltd. of Calgary and a branch of the Soviet oil ministry for oilwell servicing operations in western Sib eria That deal was the brainchild of Fracmaster president Ron Bullen who spent $3 million to show Soviet oilmen how they could increase their production by up to five times.’ A Calgary lawyer-who helped put-the deal together has said the joint venture has the potential to generate huge century Canada and the Soviet Union profits over the next half. between the two countries, and at least seven other deals are under consideration. Bagramov also noted that-Canad- ian Foremost Ltd. of Calgary, a manufactuter of all-terrain vehicles ‘and hydraulic oilfield pumping sys- tems, has been trading for many years with the Soviet Union The U.S.S.R. has recently adopted a special law which permits direct contacts between its enterprises and Canadian companies. This should reduce Canadian concerns about exc- essive bureaucracy, he said. ‘‘So now businessmen can go into the Soviet Union and deal directly with the plant or factory. You don't need to deal with bureaucracy."” Under the new policy of perestro- ika, or economic restructuring, Bagr. amov said the Soviet Union is trying hard to make the establishment of joint ventures easier, The rule for establishing them used to require $1 per cent Soviet capital “Now we have eliminated this condition.

Jack Masterman, president of Mu- tual Life Assurance Co. of Canada, said he called the RCMP about 1:30 p.m. on April 27, then called Wil- son’s office, after learning that one of thé firm's employees in Ottawa had been shown a copy of a budget summaty two days earlier. A photocopy of the document had also been sent to an employee at the company’s head office in Waterloo, Ont., on April 26, Masterman said. That was the same day Global television — which had also obtained a budget summary —_ broadcast details of the budget, prompting Wilson to release it a day ahead of schedule at a late-night news confer- ence. In a prepared statement, Master- man said an internal investigation by the firm has found no indication that decisions were made or based on contained in the document." Mary McLaughlin, a company spo- kesman, said the firm would make no further comment until the RCMP completes its investigation. The statement by Masterman — the substance of which had been reported last week by the Toronto Globe and Mail based on information received from an unidentified source — was released as the opposition pursued the matter in the Commons. Liberal Leader John Turner and New Democrat critic Lorne Nystrom rejected Wilson's repeated assertions that he did not know of a second leak when he rose in the. House he morning of April 27 to explain the first breach, nor later that day when he released his budget Turner said a second leak poked holes in Wilson's argument that he should not have resigned because profits were turned and no damage done as a result of the Global leak Turner accused Wilson of mislead- ing the Commons and said the budget Should never have been delivered Nystrom said that if a Finance Department official received Master- man's information and failed to tell Wilson, he or she should be fired for dereliction of duty. But the New Democrat wasn’t buying Wilson's denial. In the Commons, Wilson insisted he had acted properly throughout the affair, but shed little light on the alleged second leak pending an RCMP investigation Leak said of no benefit toanyone TORONTO (CP) — Two major stock markets have indicated their in- vestigations inté whether anyone benefited from last month’s leak of the federal budget have turned up nothing. Spokesmen for the Montreal and Vancouver stock exchanges said they checked for any unusual trading in companies that could have been profitable investments for someone with advance knowledge of the budget. The Ontario Securities Com- mission, however, would not comment on whether the RCMP had requested the securities regulator check into whether anyone profited on the Toronto Stock Exchange from the leak The commission also would not say whether it asked the Torohto exchange tolgok into the matter. The Mulroney government has come under fire from some opposition members who charge the RCMP has not asked securities regulators to check May 24, 1989 A SAFEWAY PRODUCE FOR YOU!
