The
consti
tutional
conference
turns
today
to
national
financial
problems
Impelled
by
blunt
charges
from
the
Prairies
that
federal
eco
economic
�
nomic
policies
are
undermining
their
programs
Mondays
first
day
of
the
three
day
conference
saw
a
suc
succession
�
cession
of
Prairie
spokesmen
challenging
the
governments
handling
of
federal
provincial
tax
sharing
policies
The
result
was
a
decision
to
reverse
the
agenda
putting
the
Prairies
fiscal
concerns
ahead
of
the
federal
emphasis
on
lan
language
�
guage
and
other
fundamental

called
it
a
minor
concession
since
the
language
issue
will
come
at
this
afternoons
session
They
held
to
the
stand
that
the
federal
provincial
distribu
tion
of
taxing
and
spending
pow
ers
should
be
discussed
onl
In
relation
to
the
constitution
But
it
was
clear
that
the
Prairies
with
some
support
from
other
parts
of
the
country
were
intent
on
a
full
airing
of
their
financial
woes
Mondays
opening
session
at
times
sounded
more
like
a
fi
nancial
than
a
constitutional

Strong
support
for
the
federal
approach
to
bilingualism
came
from
New
Brunswicks
Premier
Louis
Kobichaud
and

Joseph
Smallwood
And
all
premiers
made
at
least
gestures
to
the
advance
ment
of
bilingualism
although
some
wanted
it
to
be
voluntary
But
even
Mr
Smallwood
after
offering
warm
praise
for

the
