Five charged i in bombing

TORONTO (CP) "— Five
Vancouver-area‘ residents
were char, Tuesday in
‘connection with last Octo:
ber’s bombing at the Litton
Systems of Canada Ltd. plant
in suburban Toronto,

‘The five have been held in
Oakalla, prison in Burnaby
since they were arrested in

. January. At that time they

were charged with offfences

: including ‘the bombing of a

B.C. Hydro ion. and

pensionersin need to bring
them above the poverty line.
\' EDLERLY POOR FIRST
“They should be the first to
get ‘any. ‘Free money’ going
around, and I'm going”
make sure that happens.”
Bringing homemakers into
the’Canada Pension ‘Plan is
one of the issues’ ths federal
government has ‘handed over
to a’ special Comimons com-
mittee on pension reform.

Meanwhile, the govern- .

ment is looking at other ways
of making sure ‘women who
spend most of their lives out-
side the paid labor force are
treated fairly by public: and
private pension plans. =~
Begin said-she and Judy
Erola, minister responsible
for the status of women,
favor the “splitting” of Can-
ada Pension Plan credjts be-
tween spouses as a first step
oward,,, giving, housewives,
pel s in their own names.
That would involvé com-
bining the pension benefits:
earned by husbands and
wives, and split them equally:

-Tuesday with causing an ex-.

plosion likely to cause serious
bodily harm and with causing
an explosion likely to cause
serious damage to property.
Both offences carry maxi-
mum life sentences,

The three are also charged
along with Douglas Stewart
and Gerald Hannah, both 26,
with conspiracy to cause’an
explosion likely to cause ser-
ious ae property and

i for

between the two at retire-
ment. '

‘The idea-is for the federal :

government to take the lead
on credit-splitting in ‘hopes

to: that private employers will

follow with similar changes in
their own pension plans.

Another possibility men-
tioned by Begin is to take
the income-tax deductions
claimed by husbands with
dependent spouses and some-
‘how use the. tax savings in-
volved to provide pensions
for housewives.

One ‘women’s group in ~

Quebec is already looking at
that ‘possibility, the minister

Such a procedure ‘would bypass what Bonnett said isa
complicated process that. has given the LRB too much

go that route in co-operation with them,” Barrett. said.

He said, however, that there are problems with timing
because B. 142 municipalities are required by law to set
