2 Sherbrooke, Wednesday, November 4,1981 30 cents SCOC rules Youth Act sections ‘inoperative’ OTTAWA (CP) — The right of a citizen to place charges against an offender takes precedence over sections of a Quebec law' aimed at keeping juveniles out of court, the Supreme Court of Canada ruled Tuesday.Chief Justice Bora Laskin stopped short of declaring sections of the Quebec Vouth Protection Act unconstitutional, but said in his ruling they were “inoperative” in the case that came before the court.The affair started when a woman w ent to police to charge a juvenile with robbery.Quebec authorities said the charge could not be placed because the youth protection law took precedence over the federal Juvenile Delinquents Act and a Criminal Code provision allowing a citizen to file such charges The youth protection law provides that a director of youth protection, appointed by the provincial government, can step in to protect a juvenile before charges are placed.The trial judge, upheld by the Quebec Court of Appeal, ruled that the Juvenile Delinquents Act and he Criminal Code take precedence over the Quebec law.The supreme court was then asked to rule on the const itutional validity of the Quebec law.Laskin said he did not think an assessment of validity was needed The youth protection law appeared to be within provincial legislative competence, but did not take precedence over the Juvenile Delinquents Act or the Criminal Code provision.Maid firing upheld in bones case MONTREAL (CP) — A labor arbitrator has upheld the firing of a hotel pantry maid who took home bones to give to a friend's dog.Maria Onecha.who worked at the posh downtown Chateau Champlain for five years, was fired last December for removing the seemingly-worthless bones, which she said she thought she had permission to do.But hotel personnel who testified before arbitrator Harvey Frumkin noted that the bones — some of which weighed more than three kilograms had enough meat for three meals.Suffragette Therese Casgrain dies at 85 “Strike one - strike two - all you ever think about are strikes.” Gunfight kills cop, second hurt MONTREAL (CP) — A young suburban policeman was fighting for his life today after being shot by three bank robbers who also killed his partner on Tuesday.Constables Serge Gagnon, 25, and Michel Vincent, 26.were gunned down when they literally walked into a volley of bullets while answering an alarm at a branch of the National Bank of Canada in suburban Longueuil.Vincent was shot twice in the head and died moments later.Gagnon, shot twice in the chest and once in the arm, was rushed to hospital and underwent a four-hour operation during which his left lung was removed.He was wheeled into the operating room a second time early today in an attempt to stop internal bleeding.“The dead officer didn’t have a chance,” said another witness.“He was shot just as he got out of the police car.It was horrible.” Although Gagnon managed to fire at the bandits, Longueuil police believe none of the bullets hit their mark.KK< 01(1)1 ’KURY BEATON Therese Casgrain, socialist and defender, died overnight Monday at 85.MONTREAL (CP) - Therese Casgrain, an aristocrat who considered herself a humanist and who became one of Canada’s most indefatigable suffragettes,, socialists and defenders, died in her sleep Tuesday.She was 85.She is credited with being the driving force behind a 14-year fight to give Quebec women the vote in provincial elections, a right gained in 1940, and she was a strong fighter for unionization and better pay for the province’s school teachers.She was an early leader of the province’s consumer movement, worked for nuclear disarmament and was a strong critic of Canada’s role in the Vietnam War.Casgrain ran for office nine times, once as an independent Liberal and the rest as a member of the Co-operative Commonwealth Federation, forerunner of the NDP, of which she was Quebec president.But the only post to which she was elected was that of church warden in her parish of St.Leon-de-Westmounl and she remarked once: “An election defeat doesn’t kill anybody.” In October 1970, she was appointed to the Senate as the NDP’s first member of the upper house.She was a senator for only nine months until she reached the mandatory retirement age of 75.She sat as an independent after breaking with the NDP and coming out in favor of the War Measures Act.She spoke out about English-Canadian tendency to treat Quebecers as second class and harassed the government about the sale of Canadian-made napalm to U.S.forces in Vietnam.STUMPED QUEBEC Last year during Quebec’s referendum campaign, aged 84 and as elegant and energetic as ever, she stumped the province on behalf of Canada with the Yvettes, a team of women activists, professionals and politicians of all ethnic backgrounds.Afterwards she kept on lobbying, speaking and writing for the elderly, the poor and (he rights of native women.At 19 she married Pierre Casgrain who, before he died, was a Liberal Member of Parliament, Speaker of the House of Commons, secretary of state and a judge.She is survived by four children, 17 grandchildren and five great-grandchildren.“Unfortunately, my married life only lasted 33 years,” she told an interviewer after her biography A Woman in a Man’s World was published in 1971.“It takes a very great man to let his wife be somebody.” Born in Montreal into the Quebec establishment, she spent most of her life fighting it and said: “Had I been bom a man, I’d either be prime minister of Canada or in jail.What a choice!” The daughter of Sir Rodolphe Forget, financier and Conservative politician, she grew up in a small world of power, wealth and influence in a family that traced its roots back to the beginning of French settlement on the continent.HOME LAVISH The sprawling family country home in Saint-Irene-les-Bains, beside the St.Lawrence River east of Quebec City, had 16 bedrooms, a Turkish room, a Tardif unaware of aide bribe proposal Japanese room, stables to house the ponies on which the children of the family learned to ride, bowling lanes, a tennis court, an indoor pool, and 10 live-in servants.A local workman once greeted her mother with the words: “Lady Forget, you remind me of Queen Victoria in her Vatican ” She considered herself a practical person and used to criticize militant feminists for missing the point.In 1971, when some Quebec women were campaigning to be allowed into the traditional male bastion of taverns, she said:'T don't mind a glass of beer but I can’t for the world understand the big fuss.” “I would think it far more important to devote time and energy to fighting for equal pay for equal work, or for day nurseries.” litis contract boosts Bombardier confidence By Stephen McDougall VALCOURT — Things are looking up for Bombardier Inc., originally a snowmobile manufacturer and now diversified into such areas as mass transportation, railway locomotives and heavy equipment.And, it is securing the future of yet another division created three years ago, that of Logistics vehicles, or put in laymen’s terms, military support vehicles Though this division is quite young and has only secured one contract so far, the manufacture of 2,762 army trucks for the Canadian Armed Forces, Normand Carpentier is certain it won’t be their last.Carpentier, president of the industrial products group at Bombardier, expresses confidence that this division will bear considerable fruit not only on defence contracts at home, but in future export sales to other countries in the NATO alliance, as well as countries considered friendly to North America.Hunters warned: Beware of atrazine residue One reason Carpentier is confident about future defence contracts is the recent agreement with Volkswagen of West Germany for exclusive worldwide rights to manufacture and market a four-wheel-drive vehicle called the litis, which is used in the West German forces as a jeep.For Bombardier, the vehicle could mean a further contract with the Canadian Department of National defense of over $60 million.It would also mean the company could sell the vehicle to other countries since Volkswagen, with the selling of its rights, will no longer make the vehicle.And the prospects for that contract looked even rosier when Minister of National Defense, Gilles Lamontagne, told reporters three weeks ago that Bombardier was “virtually certain” to win a $60 million contract, which would most certainly point to the litis.But according to Carpentier, the litis does have a competitor — the M 151 jeep manufactured by American Motors in the United States.American Motors, which has been in the forefront of jeep designs for years, has been building the M 151 since the early seventies and has sold a large amount of the vehicles to Canada since 1974.But this time the M 151 could find it difficult to be favored by the defense ministry.Many members of the Armed Forces find the M 151 poor in quality and maneuverability.The jeep, which was extensively used See SIZE Page 3 By Merritt Clifton SUTTON — The agricultural chemical atrazine may be dangerously contaminating meat from wild game animals, Concordia University professor M.F.Malik believes.Malik, a Doctor of Science and professor of chemistry for the past 17 years, argues that while “You will not gel sick from eating one meal” of contaminated meat, "it has a long-range effect" that hunters should be aware of.Malik warned hunters in the Cowansville Guide last week that because “This year, unusual acreage of farming land was planted with corn," and treated with atrazine to help the corn crop, “eating wild animals from the vicinity of such farming land could be potentially dangerous for humans " He stresses that the danger isn't inherent in atrazine use, although like all hydrocarbon based fertilizers, "Atrazine is very lethal You must wear a mask when applying it." Rather, in normal farm use, Malik considers atrazine "a very good fertilizer and pest-killer, very beneficial to corn, encouraging growth.It can be detected in the ground only for several weeks after use.” Atrazine is usually applied as either a coating on seeds, or a powdery spray right after planting.It combats nightshade, jimsonweed, cocklebur.nutsedge, and quackgrass, all common cornfield weeds, without harming the corn itself.“So the mature corn is not affected,” Malik continues, "nor the beef or any animals feeding on it.But most wildlife - rabbits, grouse, deer, waterfowl eat seedlings or planted seeds" in spring “because in that part of the year there is a shortage of other forage The chemical accumulates within the animal and is * stored there for several years” in body tissues, unless the animal ingests a lethal quantity.More often, each individual animal ingests a sub-toxic dose of atrazine But as other, bigger animals eat smaller animals that have been contaminated, they in turn accumulate larger doses, so that the animals at the top of the food chain are most likely to be poisoned.In Brome Missisquoi, where rabbits, grouse, and especially deer have few natural predators, hunters are at the lop of the food chain.See DOC TOR Page 3 QUEBEC CP._ Quebec Housing Minister Guy Tardif says he didn’t know until reading a newspaper story this week that his former aide had suggested a $50,000 payment to an employee with damaging information about the Quebec Housing Corp.The aide, Jean Foisy, said last week his suggestion was a “serious error of judgment,” but was meant “just as a joke." Questioned by reporters during a news conference Tuesday, Tardif said Foisy told him last year of allegations that Jean-Roch Boivin, Premier Rene Levesque’s chief aide, was involved in attempts to bribe Yvan Latouche, who was aware of irregularities within the corporation’s major repairs division.Boivin has denied the allegations.Tardif said Boivin’s name came up in a discussion of a claim by Duroc Construction that the corporation owed it $1 million.The minister said he was “furious" when Foisy told him that “there are lots of things happening here that you don’t know about.” Tardif added that he has not spoken to Foisy officially since that time.Tardif called Boivin to tell him about the allegations “just as 1 would do for anyone if I heard that kind of rumour about them ” “A few days later I got an answer.Boivin called saying the rumors probably started because Duroc was ready to offer $50,(KX) to anyone who could resolve the dossier “I think you can understand that’s a small sum compared to what it could cost the company in the courts,” he said.“Nobody more than myself would like to have this cleared up,” Tardif said, noting however that a public inquiry could only be called by the justice department.Talk of a scandal in the corporation has been going on for nearly a year The charges of irregularities, including nepotism and the awarding of contracts without tender, revolve around con tractor Luc Cyr, who w’as in charge of the major repairs division.Cyr was hired for the job on Boivin’s recommendation, with the approval of Premier Levesque Shuttle launch delayed CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla.(AP) Launch of the shuttle Columbia was delayed today, with just 31 seconds left in its sunrise countdown, due to a "possible problem with the software.” Astronauts Joe Engle and Richard Truly were strapped in their cockpit seats, ready to fly, when the countdown clock was stopped at 7:48 a m EST.Launch officials immediately set out to find and fix the computer trouble and there was a possibility a launch might come later today.NASA officials say it appears that the earliest a second launch attempt could be made this morning is about 10 EST.am on Columbia's be delayed two If not, the liftoff second test flight will days at least Launch control spokesman Hugh Harris, caught by surprise when the countdown clock stood still, said the problem was not known but appeared to be in the computer software, or programming.Columbia is computer controlled, with four main units and a backup unit on board A last minute problem also halted the first attempt to launch Columbia on her maiden mission last April, and the problem then, as now, was with com puters.It was fixed and the ship launched two days late PM urges premiers to accept Davis trade-off OTTAWA (CP) Prime Minister Trudeau is hoping to convince some other provinces to embrace a proposal by Ontario Premier William Davis aimed at breaking the year-long constitutional logjam Playing the role of mediator at a constitutional conference Tuesday, Davis suggested that talks focus on a major trade-off by both Trudeau and the eight premiers who have been opposing his proposals for the last year.The Davis suggestion would involve acceptance by Trudeau of the amending formula favored by the eight dissenting premiers In return, the eight would accept a slightly-modified version of (he charter of rights Trudeau wants entrenched in the constitution Trudeau hopes some of the eight “will tall off the branch" today and accept something close to the Davis proposal, a highly placed federal official said Tuesday night following an emergency cabinet meeting of more than two hours New Brunswick Premier Richard Hatfield, who along with Davis has been Trudeau’s only other provincial ally in the constitutional debate, was reported to be willing to accept the Ontario premier's suggestion.Most premiers refused comment on the Davis suggestion following a day of hectic and often confusing negotiations For several hours proposals and counter proposals flew between a downtown hotel suite, where the eight dissenting premiers met, and the government Conference Centre, where Trudeau and his two provincial allies were located.Davis acted as a go-between during part of the talks, which according to some provincial sources, were not always friendly.COMPROMISE REJECTED Trudeau rejected a different com promise proposal delivered to him Tuesday by Peter Lougheed of Alberta.Hill Bennett of British Columbia and John Buchanan of Nova Scotia because the rights charter would have been watered down considerably, both provincial and federal sources said.“They hit up against the same kind of incomprehensible wall that we’ve known for over a year,” Quebec Premier Rene Levesque angrily told reporters.The so-called Vancouver amending formula favored by the eight dissenting premiers requires the consent of Parliament and seven provinces representing at least 50 per cent of the country’s population Trudeau has opposed this formula because up to three provinces could opt out of agreements signed by the others, creating what he culls a "checkerboard Canada.” Although both Trudeau and Justice Minister Jean Chretien said Tuesday they are still opposed to this opting out provision, they are willing to accept some form of the Vancouver formula if the provinces accept a charter of rights.Trudeau.Vancouver prepared Formula Mi 2—The RECORD—Wednesday, November 4, 1981 Queen face will stay on postage stamps OTTAWA (CP) Prime Minister Trudeau's “loyalty to the Queen” was defended Tuesday as the opposition questioned government plans for 1983 postage stamps.Andre Ouellet, minister responsible for the new Canada Post corporation, flatly denied in the Commons that the government has issued instructions to stop printing stamps bearing portraits of Queen Elizabeth now or in the next six years.And he turned down requests for bargain-priced stamps for senior citizens and the handicapped, saying it is not the job of the post office to assist the needy.Ouellet was obviously offended by questions from Bud Bradley, Progressive Conservative postal critic, who said officials in the post office design department say they have received instructions to remove the Queen from 1983 stamps.Ouellet denied the charge, reminding Bradley of Trudeau’s announcement last week that the Queen would be kept on 1982 issues after postal officials said she might be dumped in an effort to “Canadianize” the country’s stamps.The prime minister, whose feelings about the monarchy have been questioned in the past, “showed clearly last week his loyalty to the Queen,” Ouellet said.DENIES ALLEGATION The minister said he was sur- prised by Bradley’s allegation.“Somebody, somewhere is really trying to create a situation that doesn’t exist.” Bradley, MP for Haldimand-Norfolk riding in Ontario, then suggested the post office print half-price stamps for senior citizens and the needy.If the proposed 30-cent first-class postage rate is approved by the government for 1982, these groups would thus pay only 15 cents to mail a regular letter.But Ouellet replied that while all MPs sympathize with the plight of the needy, the post office is not an institution designed to provide social assistance.There are other programs for that.Walter McLean, Tory MP for Waterloo, Ont., asked Secretary of State Gerald Regan to seek reduced postal rates for national voluntary associations but the minister sidestepped the question.Irate Soviet captain NeWS-itl-brief refuses to leave sub - STOCKHOLM ( AP) — The skipper of a Soviet submarine that ran aground in Swedish waters is refusing to leave his ship for further interrogation after two sessions that the Swedes said did not produce a satisfactory explanation for his penetration of a restricted military area.“We must stick to a clear-cut and firm Swedish stand and not give in to the Soviet demands to hold all sessions aboard the submarine,” said Lt.-Gen.Sven-Olov Olsson, the head of the military command in south Sweden, mand in south Sweden.Olsson said such technical matters as the functioning of the sub’s navigation equipment might be sorted out best aboard the submarine, which Swedish tugs refloated Monday and towed to an anchorage in inner Gaase Bay.But he said the question of how and why the sub entered Swedish waters south of the Karlskrona naval base should be discussed elsewhere in private.Meanwhile, Soviet Ambassador Mikhail Yakovlev called on Foreign Minister Ola Ullsten to “convey Soviet views on the handling” of the incident, a Foreign Ministry spokesman said.The captain of the sub, Lt.-Cmdr.Pyotr Gushin, continued to claim that a ’’mistake in navigation due to faulty equipment and fog” caused him to run aground eight nights ago in an archipelago off the southeast coast But Olsson said this was “not a credible answer.” The Swedish government has said the sub and its crew of about 56 men will not be released until it receives a satisfactory explanation for the violation of Swedish waters.Swedish officials contend that the ship was fitted with intelligence-gathering equipment for spy missions and that it could have made its way through the islands to the area where it ran aground only by skilled manoeuvring.The Soviet government would not allow Gushin to be questioned outside his ship until Monday.He was interrogated for seven hours then on a Swedish torpedo boat anchored outside the restricted zone and submitted to 45 minutes more of interrogation Tuesday aboard his sub.But Swedish officers said he insisted he has been instructed not to leave his ship again.Priest told victims funds would finance leper colony NEWMARKET, Ont.(CP) — He told his trusting victims that the profits would help a leper colony in Africa, but after going through $300,000 and facing 34 charges of fraud.Rev.Pius Emmanuel Finnin finally is going to jail.The Roman Catholic priest was sentenced Tuesday to four years in prison after pleading guilty to swin-iling a long line of parishioners, relatives and fellow priests.One elderly woman lost her life savings in Finnin’s schemes to reap tremendous profits from uranium mines, and the family whose financial demise brought police to the case lost more than $50,000.None of the money has been found and investigators say it probably is not even in the country.Finnin’s chequered career began in Bathurst, N.B , where he was ordained in 1951 but had to leave because of problems with an investment scheme.W ENT TO I S.He went to the United States and later turned up in Saskatchewan.There, on the condition that he not solicit funds for himself or the church, he was given a temporary parish posting that lasted 12 years.But in the mid-1970s he arrived in York Region, just north of Toronto, where he began assisting priests on an occasional basis and soliciting funds for investment from parishioners.Two people he befriended were a farmer and his wife from nearby Markham, Ont., who operated a roadside vegetable stand.Finnin persuaded them to sink more than $50,000 much of it borrowed — into his investment scheme, where the money would return at such a rate there w ould even be enough left over to help some African lepers.Experiment to castrate sex offenders with drugs CALGARY (CP) Dr Julio Arholeda Florez wants to talk to rapists, peeping Toms, exhibitionists, transvestites and incestuous lovers.The director of forensic sciences for Calgary General Hospital and southern Alberta is interviewing men with bizarre sexual tendencies in the hope1 they will participate in an experiment leaving them “temporarily castrated.” Volunteers will take pills each day containing the drug cyproterone, designed to reduce their sex drive."It’s a form of medical castration,” Arboleda Florez explained He hopes that as his volunteers become less interested in sex, they will lose their urge to act out their perversions Arboleda-Florez is looking for 10 acceptable volunteers while coresearchers in Toronto and Ottawa each want to more.Cyproterone has been used extensively in western Europe for several years to deal with sex offenders Studies have shown it to be just as effective as surgical castration in reducing the number of sexual offences committed.Weatheii Wednesday will be sunny with a high of 5 lo 7 and an overnight low of -2.Thursday will start off sunny and become cloudy later in the day with a high of 10.However, the drug is still illegal in the United States and only received Canadian government approval earlier this year.DREG SAFE Arboleda-Florez said he is not aware of any evidence the drug can cause physical harm if it is used properly and that most arguments against its use are ethical

really admitted attempts by others to stand aside, or to form a power bloc of the non aligned an attempt launched the year before Suez and Hungary at Bandung, Indonesia Moscow ten ded, damagingly, to claim these would be neutrals as its own, while Washington dismisses them still as crypto Communists.For Canada, the events of 25 years ago confirmed what Canadian historian Donald Creighton has portrayed as its .submissive role in a w orld of superpowers.The late Lester Cearson, then Canadian external affairs minister, won a NoIh'1 Peace Prize for promoting a formula for what Washington wanted in the Middle East the withdrawal of the Europeans and Israel from Suez TORONTO (CP) — The man who made The Canadian Establishment a book title as well as a sociological description insists he’s not a member of the group.Peter Newman says he’s an outsider, almost a professional outsider.” “First of all I’m an immigrant (most establishment members are native Canadian ) and as a journalist you have to be an outsider, on the other side of the barricades,” he said during an interview in the office he occupies as editor of Maclean’s.He came to Canada from Czechoslovakia as child in 1940.Newman, leaning back in his chair, both feet on the desk revealing ttat he wears grey wool socks with his pin-stripe suit, spends much of his day talking to the wealthy and lunching with them at their favorite spots but insists it’s all part of the job.“You’re not going to get anything of interest if physically you stay outside.” PLANS CHANGED Newman’s latest book, The Acquisitors, the second volume of his planned series on the Canadian establishment, is not the book he thought he was going to write.The first, published in 1975, detailed the men who wielded the economic power in the country — Bud McDougald, E.P.Taylor and others of their generation.The second book was to be about the Jewish establishment but Newman became fascinated by the role of one family and in 1978 published The Bronfman Dynasty.Then he intended to turn back to the establishment, only to find the players had changed.McDougald was dead, Taylor was no longer a force and the economic rise of the West had shifted power in that direction.Newman set out to write about the new establishment and started with Conrad Black, the new head of Argus Corp.He quickly realized Black was a case apart from the new power group and will make him the subject of a separate book.DESCRIBES NEW BREED His latest book looks at the rise of what he calls the Acquisitors, the newly rich who shun the Protestant ethic of the former power brokers and happily spend their money on new possessions.He writes that their way of life “amounts to little more than creative selfishness.” He doesn’t pass judgement on their approach to life and admits he had great fun stringing together the anecdotes about people who tear down $500,000 homes to make room for more expensive ones and give their wives Rolls Royces for birthday presents.While he likes to write about the wild life, Newman says he doesn’t live it He describes his own existence as ascetic with little room for parties and socializing.He’s in bed by nine most nights and up at four to put on a Stan Kenton record and start writing.But even for an ascetic it’s not easy to get out of bed at 4 a.m.He wears two wrist-watches with built-in alarms.“The first goes off to get me out of a deep sleep and 15 minutes later the other one buzzes to get me up.” Putting aside his pipe and leaning over his desk to rip up an old matchbook, Newman says that he’s excited by the new members of the establishment."They have a spirit of adventure like the fur traders who risked their lives to establish the Hudson’s Bay Co.The difference is that the acquisitors are risking their psyches and souls.” Newman expects that over the next few years these risks will pay off for the average Canadian with jobs in a batch of new high-technology industries.“These are people who will determine whether free enterprise lives or dies in Canada.” he says and there is no question he hopes it will live.Although Newman thinks the subjects of his book will appreciate that it “grants them recognition as a new class,” some have rushed to the phone to call their lawyers.The Toronto Star and The Financial Post apologized to a Toronto woman for a reference to her in an excerpt from the book that they published.The issue now is in court to decide whether changes will be required in the book.“What the establishment values most is privacy and I’m invading that privacy,” Newman says.r COM SA!f> i VS (SOT Ml urns, too/ Knowles missed by Commons OTTAWA (CP) Although Stanley Knowles still is in Ottawa Civic Hospital, recovering from surgery following a brain hemorrhage Oct.2, his heart is in the House of Commons where he is the longest-serving member.Minutes before the Commons resumed this month, he telephoned Speaker Jeanne Sauve “to tell me he is with us all in thought.” Her wishes for a speedy recovery won the unanimous support of MPs, Knowles has represented Winnipeg North Centre since 1942 except for his defeat in the Conservative sweep of 1958.He was an unhappy man until he was re-elected in 1962.Now, at 73, he faces a long bout of therapy to regain the memory and speaking ability that are a large part of his reputation as one of the masters of the Commons rulebook and defenders of parliamentary tradition "Doctors feel he may regain 65 to 70 per cent of his speech and memory," Knowles’s son David said recently.To his friends, that would he enough for Knowles to remain at centrestage in the Commons.Others privately don’t share that optimism but keep the doubts to themselves out of respect for Knowles.Tommy Douglas, an old friend and former party leader, and his wife are among the few who have been able to visit Knowles.Mrs.Douglas said Knowles “has made progress every time we see him.” His memory is improving and he will return to the Commons, she said David Knowles said his father has been helped by calls from well-wishers.“He needs to know people are thinking and praying for him.Glamor gone from diplomatic life By George Beni ley REGINA (CP) Life in the diplomatic corps isn’t what it used to be, says Ken Taylor, former Canadian ambassador to Iran and now consul-general in New York.Taylor, in Regina recently to speak to the annual meeting of the Saskatchewan Health Care Association, said "a lot of the glamor or some of the exotic nature of the diplomatie service is more of a recollection than a reality at the moment." "I'm not getting out and I’m not certain many of my colleagues are," he said “But a number of people now are questioning whether or not they want to look forward to moving every three years for 30 years or however long they last in the service.” Taylor said this also does not take into account the fact that either the husband or w ife, or both, are working, the questionable security, quality of life and a handful of other considerations.“1 think people are a bit skeptical as to whether this is the same business they thought they were joining some time ago," he said.Taylor said security is becoming a bigger concern in light of recent events around the world.“I, like most New Yorkers, don’t walk through Central Park at night," said Taylor."Bui I take no special precautions 1 think that would Ire different from most diplomats " But he said those precautions are more than what most people would take “H’s maybe the characteristic of diplomacy today We’ve had to buy armored cars, the whole front part of my office in New York is steel walls with bullet-proof glass and doors that open electronically." And those measures aren't just at the offices.Taylor said his home has an alarm system connected to the local police precinct station, the doors are made of steel and there is even a way to isolate his office from the rest ol the building “These are more or less a sorry commentary on what diplomacy is all about because it seems a diplomat _ effectiveness is limited by how close he is to the country he is accredited to and if you're walking around in a steel safe, it is difficult to conduct a normal relationship." lie said this is becoming increasingly characteristic of the situation for most Canadian embassies overseas, adding the same holds true for American and most European embassies, particularly the West German ones.Letters Save us, Pierre! Following is the text of an open letter to Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau.Dear Sir: I am writing this open letter to you to support your efforts to repatriate the constitution with the Charter of Rights.Over the past few years I have become increasingly bitter over the political events occurring in this province and the rest of the country.The election of the Parti Québécois, the implementation of Bill 101, the referendum rhetoric, the continual haggling with the federal government, and the reelection of the PQ have made me frustrated and angry.The constitution debate and the abandonment by Claude Ryan’s Liberals have left me and many anglophones with a feeling of isolation and desperation.This area of the province, the Eastern Townships, was first settled by the Loyalists.Fifty years ago the majority of the population in the Sherbrooke area was English-speaking.Our ancestors had to work hard, and made a valuable contribution to the prosperity of the province and the country.They believed that this country was a free country where they could keep their religion, their culture, and their language without discrimination.They developed their own schools and institutions to serve their own needs.Now we find out that our mere existence as a cultural entity is only a privilege.The right to use oui- language freely has been eliminated.Our school boards will soon be scrapped and our schools will be at the disposal of the francophone majority.Even the English names for the towns, counties, and roads are being changed.The ideals for which our ancestors worked are ignored.Memories of their contributions are slowly but deliberately being erased.The Supreme Court ruled that your government’s repatriation plan was legal, but disobeyed normal conventions.A convention means that if something has always been done in the past, it must always be done in the future.In Quebec, we had the convention that we could use our language freely without restrictions, We had a convention that allowed us to speak to our government in our own language.But these conventions seem to mean nothing.They have been eliminated by the National Assembly.Now our school boards will soon be done away with.That is how this Quebec government has respected our conventions.Yet the provinces demand that Ottawa respect theirs.We need this Charter of Rights to help stem the abuses of power so rampant in Quebec.The seven premiers are willing to side with Levesque, eager to maintain the same powers that his government wields so viciously within this province.The power to outlaw the use of English on signs and in companies; to ban the use of English in government services, to eliminate English school boards, to censor English movies, and to discriminate against other Canadians coming into the province.Similar powers would be useful to a government that wanted to use a minority as a scapegoat for the province’s problems.The provinces argue about their rights and ignore the needs of the people.Rights should be guaranteed for the people first and for governments second.In the upcoming constitutional talks Ottawa should refuse to dilute any part of the Charter of Rights.No province should be allowed to opt in or out of any section.Individual’s rights must be applied equally across the country.Further, no province should be given the right of veto over future amendments to the constitution.To do so would be to ignore future demographic changes which might occur in Canada and would subject the whole country to the decisions of only one or two provinces.Many associations have been vocal in their complaints about what is happening in Quebec, but their words seem to have been ignored by Quebec and unheard by the rest of Canada.It is time for more dramatic actions to be taken, for demonstrations or strikes, to emphasize that we have serious problems that must be solved.I hope that your success with the constitution w ill help solve some of them.Yours respectfully, BRUCE G.DURRANT, Lennoxville Homecoming Editor: In conjunction with the Medicine Hat Centennial in 1983, there will be a Homecoming for all former Alexandra High and

that says ‘I’ll be around to call when the work’s all done this fall’.Well, this is it and the E.T.and indeed the nation are gearing up for some of their best shows.Promising top quality in just about everything, fall schedules are geared to emphasize the importance of agriculture on a regional basis and nationwide.But, the agriculture picture is not exactly rosy.Both levels of government have cut budgets and subsidies and this year’s salons and exhibitions are focusing on cost cutting procedures and self-sufficiency both at home and on a regional basis.The Eastern Townships is leading the way in this area.A first ever Agri-Food Salon is opening its doors next week, and organizers are hoping that the contacts formed will open new roads to local processors and markets, putting much of our agricultural resources to use towards regional self-sufficiency.A history of townships’ farming based on information gathered from the late 1700’s paints a picture of farming excellence even at that early date.Our own E.T.is touted as one of the best farming regions in Quebec and local history has recorded transactions between our local producers who specialized in beef, wool, or dairy cattle with buyers from western Canada as well as the USA.Profit and quality ran hand in hand with these agricultural entrepreneurs, and one individual named Cochrane in Compton was the first to import quality Jerseys, Shorthorns, horses and prime sheep.The results of prime breeding stock and good management brought buyers from as far away as the American west, and started many neighbors off on the right foot with premium foundation stock.This type of specialized farming which evolved from the basic steps taken a generation earlier just for survival, led to the development of related industries such as hides for the tanneries.These later evolved into the shoe industry.Wool production opened the way for woolen mills and around 1860, dairy farmers in Hatley, Waterville, Stanstead and Barnston formed a first ever cooperative to manufacture cheese.The E.T.soon was known world wide for quality cheeses as tons were shipped to Europe and the United States.However, we were almost too efficient, and the call of the wide open spaces of the Canadian west were more than many of these successful farmers could resist.Many sold their farms and with their riches in their pockets, moved west.Cochrane, a pioneer in the E.T.in top quality breeding went with the rest and eventually became known as one of the great ranching pioneers of Alberta.Some of the dynamism went with these folks and since the late 1800’s, until about 1970, the Eastern Townships has gradually faded into the total mosaic of a continental market, w ith the emphasis,pn milk production.But.today’s problems are complex and far-reaching.Our perspective must be global as well as regional Some way must be found to limit the control of powerful multi-nationals.The environment and ecology are other areas of prime concern.In the center of all this is the individual farmer, whose prime concern is to meet those payments and keep mind and soul together.The Agri-Food Salon doesn’t claim to be the total answer.But suggestions which could lead to more efficient use of the agricultural potential in the E.T.could only do some good.The Royal Winter Fair gets underway November 12 through 21 and this year features corn in all its forms as well as a select group of artisans working and exhibiting the art of their choice.As usual, the horticultural display promises to be fantastic and entertainment during the day is non-stop in that department.For the show ring buffs, there is continuous judging going on in the various rings.Of interest this season, the evening horseshow, will feature a special presentation by the Lippizaner stallions, famous for their nimble feet and high flying pirouettes.The Montreal effort to duplicate the effect and atmosphere of the Royal starts the last week in November and continues into December.For the townshipper, it’s a chance to see much the same thing, although the setting and atmosphere will take some years of growth to catch up to the grand old Royal.All these events tend to make one forget their troubles or fantasize just a little about new methods or new productions.But, the present situation won’t let the agriculture producers keep their heads in the clouds for long.This week the Quebec Farmers Association holds its annual meeting at Macdonald College where the guest speaker is Charles Gracey, general manager of the Canadian Cattlemen’s Association.Here, beefs will be aired and the not so nice news of budget and subsidy cuts.Early in December, the Union des Producteurs Agricoles will hold its annual meeting in Quebec City.Quebec farmers are angry and confidence in the agriculture minister is at an all time low.Resolutions to march on Quebec and demand Garon’s resignation have come from every corner of the province and the meeting will give delegates and ordinary members a forum to speak their mind.Although only official delegates have a vote general membership is especially invited to observe and speak out if they wish.I have lately discovered this typewriter is not accurate.Not only does it not spell very well but it has taken a turn for the worse and began to bungle up names.It seems one young man who heaped glory on himself at several local plowing matches, winning trophies and prizes galore was erroneously called Michael Kirby.Now, after a severe talking to, this typewriter has admitted its mistake and apologizes to Michael Naylor for its error.By the way, to finish what was inadvertently cut off in a recent column about a pert young miss, the office dictionary states the definition of ‘pert’ includes.smart, trim and cocky.It was in this context the word ‘pert’ was used and I still think it is a complimentary description of a neat, trim and pretty combination of a young lady and her steed.Grain farmers wary * lli i ?* m% 1 fi/i If: ! ! ” Ü , i.fk:* try ry, ¦ n < h'.,1 ¦' ¦ Ar làlié .fi,aWP • '4 i ; • • t ¦ MJSHH Western grain farmers aren V so sure the future is as bright for their product as some analysts would have everyone believe.Last week’s livestock quotes SASKATOON(CP) -Farmers don’t share in the enthusiasm of others in their industry who see foreign customers lined up in the future to buy Canadian grain.The conclusion was reached by a special study prepared for the Canada Grains Council and distributed recently at a concluding session of the organization’s semi-annual meeting.A number of factors lead to that opinion.But the main reason is that farmers aren’t convinced other players in the marketing chain can deliver the goods, or that prices will be high enough to make expanded production worthwhile.The study, prepared by a nine-man committee headed by A.A.Guitard of Agriculture Canda’s research branch, said farmers will have to be guaranteed their grain will be sold before they will grow it.“The key constraint to expanded output lies in the perception producers have that the marketine_svstem is not capable of handling the volumes of grain they can produce.’’ The committee, which included a soil scientist as well as farmers and grain-company officials, said there is little doubt farmers can grow enough grain to meet the market potential.Agricultural resources in the West appear to be physically capable of supporting more than 50 million tonnes of grain each year.That compares with an average annual production level of 35.5 million tonnes between 1976 and 1980.Annual crops exceeding average levels will be needed to meet the Canadiana Wheat Board's export projections of 30 million tonnes by 1985 and 36 million tonnes by 1990.The study said another impediment to increased production is the quota system governing deliveries to grain elevators.NOMINATION The President and Chief Executive Officer, Mr.Louis Jalabert and Mr.Jean Charles Daigneault, General Manager, province of Quebec, announce the appointment of Beef chief to speak MACDONALD COLLEGE - Charles Gracey, well known general manager of the Canadian Cattlemen’s Association and sometimes controversial figure in Canada’s troubled beef industry, will be speaking in Quebec at this year’s annual meeting of the Quebec Farmers’ Association at Macdonald College.In a communique the QFA says it welcomes Gracey and the opportunity to question him on his ideas for the Canadian beef sector.The theme for his speech will be on the current condition of the Canadian cattle industry; one likely to arouse considerable interest amongst producers and all those involved in getting our beef to the dinner table.OTTAWA (CP) — Slaughter cattle and calf receipts at public stockyards last week

diminishes OUR RIGHTS: the Supreme Court’s answer proves it.Since the beginning of Confederation in 1867, Québec has always had to be steadfast in defending its rights: In 1980, when the federal government decided to change the constitution unilaterally, Québec reacted vehemently and denounced the Ottawa plan as being against the interests of the Province.The recent Supreme Court judgment confirms that the apprehensions expressed by Québec were justified.The following are some pertinent excerpts from the Supreme Court judgment: Ottawa’s plan threatens to reduce Québec provincial powers.“.The Charter of Rights would operate retrospectively as well as prospectively with the result that laws enacted in the future as well as in the past, even before confederation, would be exposed to attack if inconsistent with the provisions of the Charter of Rights.This charter would thus abridge provincial legislative authority on a scale exceeding the effect of any previous constitutional amendment for which provincial consent was sought and obtained.” REF; Majority decision, question 2, on the constitutional proposal, p.29.Ottawa’s plan is irreconcilable with the federal principle “The federal principle cannot be reconciled with a state of affairs where the modification of provincial legislative powers could be obtained by the unilateral action of the federal authorities.It would indeed offend the federal principle that “a radical change to (the) constitution (be) taken at the request of a bare majority of the members of the Canadian House of Commons and Senate.’’ REF: Majority decision, question 2, on the constitutional proposal, p.37.Ottawa’s plan is unconstitutional “We have reached the conclusion that the agreement of the provinces of Canada, no views being expressed as to its quantification, is constitutionally required for the passing of the "Proposed Resolution for a joint Address to Her Majesty respecting the Constitution of Canada" and that the passing of this Resolution without such agreement would be unconstitutional in the conventional sense." REF; Majority decision, question 2, on the constitutional proposal, p.41 Ottawa’s plan changes the constitution by riding roughshod over convention and dilutes Québec’s powers without its consent.That is unacceptable! AWeaker Québec?NEVER! Québec The situation is extremely serious.It affects us all Quebecers may rest assured that their government will keep them informed of future developments 4 y Tin* KK('ORl)—Wednesday.November 4, 1981—13 Second section End of ET rail era nears with Via cuts The Victoria Bridge was a stunning sight By Bernard Epps Unless Via Rail has a sudden change of heart, we have very little time left to travel by train.The Eastern Townships will lose its last two passenger runs and that will be a shame because we had the first real railway in all Canada and the first international railway in all the world.It was called the St.Lawrence and Atlantic Railroad, abbreviated StLAR, and ran from Longueuil to Richmond and through Sherbrooke to Island Pond, Vermont, where it reversed itself as the Atlantic and St.Lawrence Railroad, AStLR, before driving to the sea at Portland.The first rail line in all Canada was, of course, a 16-mile portage route from St.Johns on the Richelieu to La Prairie opposite Montreal.It was made of wooden rails which had an annoying habit of curling up in the sun and its four cars were hauled by horses the first year It was called the Champlain and St.Lawrence Railroad.Other short portage lines were built around the Lachine and Long Sault Rapids and from the St.Lawrence to Joliette but there was one serious problem with the river routes of Canada.While they required marvelously little maintenance and had served transportation for thousands and thousands of years, they became embarrassingly solid in winter — even the great St.Lawrence.Montreal owed its importance to the gateway for trade from the Great Lakes to European markets but the Americans opened the Erie Canal in 1826 and siphoned a lot of that trade through the Hudson River and New York City.Then they began building railroads — from Baltimore to Ohio, from New York to Buffalo — threatening to drain whatever business was left.The merchants of Montreal realized that something had to be done and the merchants of the Townships, with Alexander Tilloch Galt as spokesman, knew exactly what that should be.Montreal needed a railway through Sherbrooke to an ice-free port on the Atlantic.Boston had long been considered to be New England's (and the Townships’) seaport but an enterprising young lawyer from Portland, John Alfred Poor, insisted that his town was closer and deserved that honor.He proposed a sleigh race to prove the fastest route from Montreal to the sea and in February, 1845, mail was loaded simultaneously aboard sleighs in Boston and Portland and sent off into the snowy mountains toward Montreal.Poor’s sleigh arrived a good 12 hours ahead of the Boston sleigh and the route to Portland was proven.Money was needed now and Galt went to England on the first of a great many missions to persuade British financiers to invest in Canadian railroads.He was successful but the market crashed in 1845 and his investors backed away.Galt went to the Canadian government and persuaded them to pass the Guarantee Act insuring six per cent interest on half the bonds issued on railways more than 75 miles long.The building began.An engineer was hired to build the bridges and lay the tracks.He was Casimir Stanislaus Gzowski (later Sir Casimir) and he had fled Poland after taking part in an uprising against Russia in which he had been wounded and taken prisoner.He came to Canada in 1841, was appointed an engineer in the Department of Public Works and then set up his own consulting firm.I The CTR station at Richmond MmK Under his capable direction, bridges spanned the Richelieu, the Yamaska, the St.Francis and steel rails were laid quickly and efficiently.The gauge of those rails was five feet six inches — a broad gauge adopted for a variety of reasons, none of which made much sense at all.One argument was that such a gauge would make it difficult for American trains to bring troops on another invasion of Canada.Another insisted that if all Canadian lines were thus different from American, it would prevent freight from the north and west being sent along the Buffalo and New York route.The government therefore passed a law that all railways in Canada should be built on a gauge of five and six inches — even though the Champlain and St.Lawrence was built on standard gauge and remained stubbornly standard.This silly law retarded the growth of Canadian railways and the StLAR was eventually forced to lay a third rail along its entire length.The first trains ran the length of the StLAR in 1853, and have been carrying passengers on the same route for 128 years.The next step was the building of the Victoria Bridge to carry trains right to the island of Montreal and that was a feat which made the entire world sit up and take notice.It was a square steel tube on 24 stone piers designed by Robert Stephenson, who had built the first locomotive for the Champlain and St.Lawrence, and was opened by the Prince of Wales (afterwards King Edward VII), in 1860.It was then considered one of the wonders of the world and stands still as a magnificent achievement.It “surpassed everything of its kind in the world,” said The Canadian Hand-t>ook and Tourist Guide of 1867.“Every tourist ought to visit the bridge before leaving Montreal, and if possible to go through on foot.The interior, when viewed by the dint light of a lamp or lantern — the opening by which you entered growing smaller and smaller in the distance as you approach the middle ’til it only shines faintly like a pale blue star — the hoarse rumbling and vibration caused by the slightest sound, striving for escape from its hollow prison — inspire a feeling of awe and reverence.To look from one of the openings in the centre piers.on to the St.Lawrence rushing past in one grand stream far below, sweeping under the bridge in eddies and whirlpools, or bursting into little spirits of angry foam as they touched the sharp edges of the masonry — to look along the sides of the iron tube, which taper away at each end in the distance until it seems a mere reed of metal, one cannot but be astounded, not only how such a design was ever carried out, but how it ever could have been conceived as practicable.” But practicable it was and still is, the sharpened points of those stone piers still knifing through 70,000 tons of winter ice on the upstream side They could take a roadbed twice as wide as the original and so, when Montreal was bursting its boundaries in the 1890s, that square tube was replaced by the present open iron trusses and cantilevered extensions added to each side where automobiles now travel.The only complaint of the workmen was that the old bridge was built too well — it was harder to cut away the old, than to install the new.The StLAR begame the foundation of the Grand Trunk which would link all corners of Canada by rail.Sir Casimir Stanislaus Gzowski joined forces with Sir Alexander Tilloch Galt in contracting extensions of the Grand Trunk Railway and both made fortunes.In 1918, the Canadian National Railway was created to keep several lines from bankruptcy.In 1923, the CNR took over the Grand Trunk.Sir Alexander Tilloch Galt was also instrumental in creating the other railway through Sherbrooke where the Atlantic Limited is now making its last runs It began as the St.Francis and Megantic International Railway chartered in 1870 to “lay out, construct and finish a double or single track of iron railway from Sherbrooke to the Province line at a point near Lake Megantic, there to connect with a line of railway in the State of Maine about to be constructed — and which will connect with the European and North American Railway or a branch thereof, so as to form a continuous railway from the Grand Trunk to the city of St.John, New Brunswick.” The capital needed was estimated at $1.5 million and the Compton County Council voted almost a quarter of a million out of the taxpayers money.Certain Townships which would be least benefited by this railway, took the council to court over their decision.When they lost the legal battle, Sherbrooke, Compton, Ascot and Orford were so incensed that they broke away from Compton County and formed a municipality of their own.Work began in the winter of 1870-71 but then railways began to go broke and there was a general collapse in 1873.By 1875, the St.Francis and International reached only as far as Bury.The company was reorganized as the International Railway Company and the line pressed slowly on to reach the international border four years later.But the State of Maine was in no hurry to build a line across its sparsely settled north either and it was July 13, 1889, that the first train carried passengers from Sherbrooke to Saint John.It was leased in perpetuity to the CPR.Bui since passenger revenues fell steeply after the war, both the CPR and the CNR have been trying to discourage people from taking their trains by keeping them dirty and uncomfortable, scheduling them at inconvenient times and pulling them into sidings to await every freight on the line.In 1976, Via Rail was created to take over what little passenger service survived.Then Jean Luc Pepin and the Cabinet decided to cut one fifth of the remaining service — 15 trains affecting 1.2 million passengers — and let it be known that no amount of public outrage would have any effect on that decision.Ten new Light-Rapid-Comfortable trains would be used to upgrade the Windsor-Quebec corridor where service is already fairly good.A great many commentators have pointed out that to cut passenger trains at this time is sheer lunacy.At a time of rising fuel prices, more and more people can be expected to go by rail and it is still the most fuel-efficient mass transportation system we have.Once existing lines are allowed to disappear, they will be nearly impossible to reestablish.There is a still graver danger in cutting long-haul passenger service in favor of the Windsor-Quebec run just at this time, and that is that it may accelerate the disintegration of Canada.The West is already furious over the federal moneys spent in Ontario and Quebec The Maritimes are in dire need of the Atlantic Limited (which runs 80 per cent full on the average).It was the railroads that stitched us together in the first place and we may well fall apart without them.*5! «W IF Sir Casimir Stanislaus Gzowski The Victoria Bridge, taken from the Montreal Gazette August 27, 1860 \ 1 !?—The RKl'ORD—VVednesday.November 4, I9KI Around the
