It's up 10 now. ,; 1 For the past month a lot of lis teners have decided Howe is their man. He's Canada's trade minis ter and sitting In for world-touring Prime Minister Louis St.Laurent. Each program touches off a new bedlam of clue-checking calls to the Howes. The Mrs. calls the whole thing "a nightmare." "We can't sit down to a meal. I can't start a letter. It's impossi ble to read the paper without the phone ringing," she told an inter viewer. The callers have asked whether Howe wears a hearing aid, a wig, false teeth. Does he own a gold mine, or a million dollars? Is he partial to sauerkraut and pretzels? Where does he buy his clothes and for how much? - "Two weeks ago I called the station and told them that unless they could bring the contest pro gram -to an end quickly, I would sue for the prize money,". Mrs. Howe continued. , The callers have pulled the min ister out of the House of Commons chamber and pestered turn at his several offices, but he finally In structed his staff to intercept them.' ,- - ' -What the sometimes sharp- tongued Howe tells the information hunters,' Mrs. "Howe did not say. wnen ana saxes ine calls, "I tell them we answer no personal ques tions."
