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

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 id . .

said.

The majority report of the Canada Pension’ Plan . Ad- visory Committee and a dis- senting report signed by

three other committce mem- . bers were obtained by The -

Canadian Press,in advance of publication.

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