away from acid rain.'’ Bourassa planning for further hydro development By Linda Drouin QUEBEC (CP) — The Quebec Liberal Party, flush with cash and confident of victory at the polls, has already begun post-election planning for massive hydroelectric development in northern Quebec.Leader Robert Bourasa said Saturday that his $25-billion scheme to sell hydroelectric power to the United States “is such a priority that I am already preparing the ground.” He did not say what form his preparations are taking.The plan outlined in Bourassa’s recently published book Power from The North would involve a series of dams to turn James Bay into a fresh water lake with both water and power to be diverted south.Bourassa spoke to reporters after the party’s general council was told at a weekend meeting that an unprecedented $5.2 million was collected in a spring fund-raising drive to help meet election expenses.Bourassa, who also pledged in creased funding for the province’s hospitals, denied Parti Québécois charges that pre-campaign pro mises he has made would cost a Liberal government more than $1-billion.Liberal commitments include more money for young welfare recipients.abolition of a nine-percent tax on insurance premiums, tax breaks for small and mediumsized businesses and a reduction in gasoline taxes.Party members are eager for an election fight and the main problem now will be to maintain the current level of enthusiasm, said Bourassa.“We have to remain vigilant,” he warned.“We might be tempted to rest, to slow down when we see these results and the polls.” Opinion polls indicate the Liberals would win a landslide victory if an election were held now.Premier Rene Levesque is expected to call an election in the fall, although he could legally prolong the life of his government until April 198(1.The results of the PQ's spring money drive will be announced next Saturday.Party officials have indicated the party didn’t collect much more than its $2-million target less than half of the Liberals' electoral fund.The PQ is also hoping to boost its membership over the 100,000 mark from the low of 70,000 it hit last year.Liberal membership has reached 214,642.Bourassa predicted a general See LIBERALS page 2 Israel to deal with hijackers?BEIRUT (AP) — Shiite Moslem leader Nebih Berri announced today that all hostages aboard a hijacked TWA airliner have been removed from the plane to an undisclosed location outside Beirut airport.He said the action was taken for security reasons.Options not abundant for U.S.officials WASHINGTON (AP) — The hijacking of a U.S.jetliner in the Middle East again makes clear that the options the United States has in dealing wdth terrorism are limited and fraught with possible pitfalls.The four most obvious choices for the U.S administration were these: — Ask Israel to give in to the hijacker’s demands for the release of some 700 Shiite Moslems captured in southern Lebanon and held in Israel.But White House spokesman Larry Speakes told reporters: “The U.S.government policy as far as terrorist-hijacking type of incidents remains the same.We do not make concessions.We do not give in to demands.We do not encourage other nations to do this.” However, there were unconfirmed reports that the White House would not stand in the way if Israel decided to swap its prisoners for the hostages.U.S.President Ronald Reagan summed up the tough policy problem underlying any decision to urge the release of the Shiite prisoners.He said:“The decision is: at what point can you pay off the terrorists without endangering people from here on out once they find out that their tactics succeed.” TRY RESCUE — Attempt a military rescue.An elite force of U.S.commandos, known as the Delta Force, was flown to the Mediterranean shortly after the hostage crisis began.But the possibility of a rescue mission was complicated by the fact that up to 10 of the Americans on board the aircraft had been removed to another location in Beirut.A 1980 attempt to use the Delta Force to free American hostages held in Iran failed when three of eight helicopters malfunctioned.Eight Americans were killed in the attempt.When Reagan was asked about any military effort he appeared to issue a veiled warning: “There have been instances where hijackers have found that actions taken have resulted in their deaths or capture .For their own safety they should turn them loose.” — Do nothing but hope circumstances will change or that the hijackers will relent.Reagan said “the fact that it has gone on this long” without any “general destruction and massacre” was encouraging.But Defence Secretary Caspar Weinberger came to the opposite conclusion, saying the hijackers would not necessarily be worn down over time because they were desperate men committed to their cause.— Retalitate after the hostage crisis is over.Administration officials have been pressing for such a course ever since the president told the U.S.hostages returned from Iran that any future actions against Americans would be met with “swift and sure retribution." Berri, who is also justice minister in the Lebanese government, announced the move at a news conference in Beirut.About 30 hostages were on board the plane that was hijacked Friday.Berri, had been negotiating with the Shiite Moslems who hijacked the plane, and there was no immediate confirmation that there had been any agreement reached to free the hostages.“I have personally ordered their evacuation .because we were afraid of an operation or a battle in which all of them would have been killed,” Berri said.Berri, leader of the Amal militia, said he was negotiating a Red Cross airlift of Shiite guerrilla prisoners from northern Israel to Damascus.Syria.However, Berri later ordered his militiamen at the airport on alert, and fire from guns and antiaircraft cannons echoed around the field.Flares fired by militiamen lit up the sky over the airport and hundreds of tracer bullets streaked over the nearby Mediterranean sea.REPORTERS OUT Journalists were asked to leave the airport.“It is not safe here,” said Amal’s chief spokesman, Ali Hamdan.“There are reports of many helicopters over the seashore.” As correspondents left the control tower, one hijacker was overhead demanding all runway and tarmac lights be switched off.The runway was soon plunged into darkness.In Jerusalem, the Israeli cabinet was reported considering the release of Shiite prisoners who were captured in southern Lebanon during the Isreali occupation.Prime Minister Shimon Peres ordered a blackout on news reports of the cabinet deliberations.Israeli military sources said the 766 prisoners now being held at Atlit prison in northern Israel were scheduled to be released within a few weeks in line with an announ ced policy to gradually free the Shiites as Israel disengages from Lebanon, which it invaded three years ago.Gush Emunim, a militant West Bank settlers’ movement, called a mass rally in Tel Aviv on Sunday night to head off any granting of the hijackers’ demands.The demonstration originally had been planned to protest the prisoner swap last month in which Israel freed 1,150 convicted and alleged guerrillas for three Israeli soldiers.Berri said he also had talked with the U.S., French and Spanish ambassadors and U.N.representatives.He stressed negotiations could be lengthy.“Talks focused on an airlift of prisoners from northern Israel to Damascus (Syria),” Berri said Sunday.He said he agreed to mediate after the hijackers promised not to harm the hostages.Two hijackers commandeered TWA’s Athens-to-Rome Flight 847 on Friday morning with 153 passengers and crew, mostly Ameri cans.The hijackers have forced the plane to land in Beirut three times and made two trips to Algeria Twelve to 15 additional gun men joined the hijackers on the early stops in Beirut.A total of 108 hostages have been released in groups in Beirut and Algeria.Uli Deriekson, a senior flight attendant who was released, said in New York Sunday that the terrorists shot dead a U.S.Marine who was among the passengers and removed to an unknown location seven passengers with “Jewish sounding names.” hma RECORD'PERRY BEATON Welcome back, Gary New York Mels catcher Gary Carter (top left)

Prime Minister Brian Mulroney—hinting at an imminent retreat on the controversial plan to cut inflation protection for old age pensions — declined Saturday to rule out the possibility it may be scrapped or changed before Parliament rises June 28.“No, I haven’t ruled out anything,” Mulroney told reporters after a special pre-summer Conservative caucus meeting at which the issue was aired and M Ps studied the results of a post-budget poll.“At an appropriate time, as I’ve always indicated, 1 will announce on behalf of my party and my government whatever action is required,” he added.It was a far cry from the message Mulroney and his ministers were preaching just days ago.On Monday Mulroney told the House the proposal and its possible effects “will be closely monitored in the course of the next few months.” Health Minister Jake Epp went even further, noting that the plan would only go into effect Jan.1, 1986, and it would be “impossible to monitor something that yet is not in effect.” However, in recent days Mulroney has been increasingly candid about the extent of the political opposition against the idea, which includes many premiers, business groups, both opposition parties and thousands of seniors.NDP Leader Ed Broadbent told reporters Saturday he received 4(H) to 500 letters on the matter last week 100 on Friday alone — “a response the like of which I’ve never seen before.” Meanwhile, a Toronto pensioner who berated Finance Minister Michael Wilson in the Commons hal Iway outside the caucus meeting told reporters he “ought to go back to square one.” Marion Moore, who identified herself as “65 plus” and a Conservative, stopped on her tour of the Parliament buildings to challenge Wilson’s assertion that the measure would be accepted if people understood that unless spending cuts are made now, social programs in the future could be threa tened by the deficit.“I think that rather than offering explanations it would help if you would consider that it (the pensioners' opposition) could be valid,” she told an uncomfortable Wilson amidst a blaze of television lights.She also politely challenged his as- SAO PAULO.Brazil (AP) — Eleven forensic experts from the United States, West Germany and Israel begin examining today the skeleton and scraps h exhumed from a grave to determine whether the remains belonged to Nazi concentration camp doctor Josef Mengele.Dr.Wilmes Teixeira.a Brazilian forensics specialist, said “a very special appeal” for more medical data was made Sunday to the Si mon Wiesenthal Centre in Los An geles.He said “more precise informa lion” was needed about Mongole s 1938 dental records and other documents to compare with material that the foreign specialists have section that some seniors support the plan.Moore later dismissed Wilson's response as “more of the stock answers which they have been using over and over,” called his budget “very unimaginative,” and said it has weakened — but not destroyed — her support for Scarborough West Conservative MP Reg Stackhouse.Mulroney — while saying the polls show “completely remarkable” acceptance of the bud get in general — conceded his government has a problem, “certain ly a problem of perception and pro bably also a problem in real terms that I would like to deal with.“And 1 discussed with my colleagues the manner in which that might be done and tookgood noteof their suggestions, which were really very interesting.” Mengele is accused of sadistic experiments on Nazi death camp detainees and of sending hundreds of thousands of Jews and other pri soners to their deaths at the Auschwitz concentration camp in Poland.He fled to South America at the end of the war.Teixeira said the new tests were to determine the sex, height, age, race, blood type and physical abnormalities of the body unearthed June 6 from a cemetery in the town of Embu, 27 kilometres from Sao Paulo.Preliminary examinations by Brazilian specialists indicated the bones were those of a white male over 60 and five-feet eight-inches tall.Some dads had a rough Father’s Day NEW YORK (AP) — Father’s Day in Times Square was an updated battle of the sexes in which rival demonstrators from the National Organization for Men and the National Organization for Women traded stories about mom’s inhumanity to dad, and vice versa.Standing nose-to-nose, NOW and NOM pickets also exchanged insults and slogans before a passing audience composed mostly of bemused or bewildered tourists, street people and winos.“They just don’t give up, these women.” said Sidney Siller, a divorce lawyer and founder of NOM, which was demonstrating against alleged favored treatment of women in divorce laws and divorce courts.It was Siller’s 11th Father’s Day demonstration in Times Square — known more as a centre of drugs, prostitution and pornography than of family values — but the first at which NOW staged a counter-protest.About 50 NOM demonstrators, most of them men, marched in a circle on a traffic island in the middle of the square.They chanted slogans including “No more wimps” and “Dewimpify America” and carried signs with messages such as “Alimony Prevents Marriage’’ and “Dump Anti-Father Judges.” “We have a lot of wimps out there who are judges,” said Marvin Feldman, who used a microphone to lead the NOM chants.The four NOW demonstrators also carried signs, including “Today is Father’s Day.Have You Paid Your Child Support?” and “Make Him a Prince.End Up a Pauper.” NOW demonstrators said NOM’s demand for expanded child custody rights for divorced fathers ignores the problem.“We get calls from women saying.Tlow can I enforce visita-lion?”’ said Lillian Kozak, head of NOW's domestic law task force in New York state.“The fathers don’t want to visit their children.” Less than 21 per cent of divorced fathers fully pay court-ordered child support, said Noreen Connell, state NOW president.“Their personal gripes may be valid,” Kozak said, referring to the circling NOM protesters, “but they want to cast law on the basis of their own bad experiences.” “I haven’t seen my kids in three years,” yelled one NOM protester, who said his divorced wife moved out of the state and took the children with her.NOM, which was founded in 1983, claims a national membership of about 3,000.The Father’s Day demonstration was begun 21 years ago by an earlier group, the National Committee for Fair Divorce Laws, outside the city jail where men were incarcerated for nonsupport.That would fit the description of Mengele, who would have been 68 on Feb.7.1979, when the body of a man who drowned while swimming at the Bertioga beach resort was recovered and then buried at Embu.Although Brazilian police investigators appeared convinced that the remains belonged to Mengele, two West German newspapers said Sunday they had information indicating that Mengele, who would be 74, was still alive.Bild am Sonntag newspaper in Hamburg, attributing its report to an agent of Mossada, Israel’s secret service, said Mengele is seriously ill with cancer and living in Paraguay Mengele mystery soon to be solved?« \ VV 2—The RKCORD—Monday, .lune 17, l!Wr> Canadian use of energy is poor and not getting better — report By Brigid Phillips I’ARIS (CP) — Canada is one of the most inefficient users of energy resources in the West and will continue to he through the year 2000 if the federal government sticks to its current policies, the In ternational Energy Agency warns in a report released today.The Paris-based IEA says that among agency members Canada is second only to Luxembourg in its inefficient use of energy.Measured as a ratio of energy use to gross national product, Canadian energy efficiency started out at the same point as the United States 10 years ago but has consistently registered higher levels of inefficiency ever since, the report says, while the U S.has improved its efficiency rating.Part of the problem, the report says, is energy prices that are lower than in any other member of the 21-country organization except the United States.Canada also is said to have a disproportionate amount of energy-gobbling heavy industry that runs up oil bills without counter balancing contributions to the gross national product.The report praises the decision by Prime Minister Brian Mulro-ney’s government to edge prices up to world levels, but recom mends ratcheting oil prices even higher with taxes to encourage conservation and switching to oil substitutes.RAPS OTTAWA The IEA criticizes the federal government for eliminating the home insulation grant program last fall and chopping oil substitution in centives to industry.The report predicts Canada is likely to maintain its poor performance on energy efficiency through to the year 2000 under current policies.The IEA did not consider measures introduced in the recent budget, but analysts indicated they are unlikely to change the forecast.The IEA was formed in 1974 as a Shuttle occupants have busy work week ahead CAPE CANAVERAL.Fla.(AIM — Shuttle Discovery rocketed away from Earth today with five American astronauts, a French test pilot and a Saudi Arabian prince for a mission that will include a Star Wars laser test and a hunt for a black hole in space.The international flight, 18th for the shuttle, began as the 100-tonne space plane blasted off its launch pad at 7:33 a.m.EDT and darted skyward over the Atlantic Ocean, spewing a 215-metre tail of fire and a torrent of smoke from its rocket boosters.During seven days in space, the crew will deploy three communications satellites, hunt for a black hole in our Milky Way galaxy and serve as a target for a Star Wars laser beam.The satellites are owned by AT and T, the Mexican government and a consortium of 22 Arab coun- tries.Also on the mission are a Ca-nadian-built robot arm, two French medical experiments and three West German technology experiments.In all, 27 countries are involved in the mission Groups of French, Saudis and Mexicans were at Cape Canaveral to attend pre-launch parties and to watch the lauch itself.The crew, commanded by astronaut Dan Brandenstein, includes Saudi Prince Sultan Salman Al-Saud, a nephew of King Fahd, and Patrick Baudry, a French military pilot.The others are pilot John Creighton and mission specialists Shannon Lucid, John Fabian and Steve Nagel.The prince will watch deployment of the Arab satellite and take pictures of his homeland that could disclose sources of oil and other resources.Ontario Liberals face tough school questions TORONTO ;CP) — If.as expected, the Ontario Liberals gain control of the government this week after 42 years in the political wilderness, they face trial by fire in inheriting the hot issue of full funding of Roman Catholic schools.Simmering for more than a year, passions surrounding the controversial funding issue are bound to rise this summer as the Liberal government prepares for the transfer of an estimated $40 million in new money to* Catholic school boards for the 1985-86 school year.But looming is the threat of a court injunction stopping the transfer if the necessary legislation— which has not yet been introduced — isn't passed by Sept.1.With the Conservatives admitting their minority finish in the provincial election May 2 was partly due to the funding controversy, the Liberals are bracing themselves for battle but are putting on a brave face.They are optimistic that with opposition support, they can manoeuvre a funding bill Liberals ride high after fund-raising total soars Continuée/ from page I election call will not be delayed until the spring “because they (the PQ) are not masochist enough to multiply the humiliations for their party.” WON BYELECTIONS The PQ was trounced in four byelections June 3.Unless a general election intervenes, Levesque will be forced to call another byelection by November to fill the seat left vacant by the resignation of independent member and former PQ transport minister Jacques Leonard Leonard quit the PQ caucus last year over the decision to d rop independence from the party’s electoral platform.He resigned his seat response to the OPEC oil crisis in an effort to co-ordinate the energy policies of western countries and avert further instability in the energy market.The report was issued at the close of meetings of the IEA governing board which elected Paul Tel-lier, Canada’s deputy minister of Energy, Mines and Resources, as its next chairman.Tellier will take up duties chairing the lEA’s senior policymaking body after energy ministers hold their annual meeting in July.The agency’s report also warns that a surplus of energy resources may turn to shortages that could spark a new energy crisis like the oil shocks of the 1970s.CAUTIONS MEMBERS The IEA cautions member countries in the industrialized West that they should guard against “complacency ” during the current period of soft oil prices and energy surpluses.“Unless the IEA countries achieve further major improvement in the efficiency with which energy is used and a major expansion in the production of energy resources, they could once again become vulnerable to oil supply disruptions in the 1990s similar to those of 1973-74 and 1979-80.” With gradually increasing de- mand and declining production, the IEA forecasts a “tight” oil market by the end of the century •with increasing risk of massive upward price movements in the event of any disruption of supplies.” But analysts predicted that during the 1980s there is likely to be surplus capacity for production of oil, coal, natural gas and electricity.They acknowledged that the short-term situation makes it difficult to convince governments of the need for continued energy conservation or the hefty expenditures required to step up production or convert to fuels other than oil.News-in-brief through the house and public hearings this summer with few political losses.“The only concern that we have is inheriting the current situation and the tensions that do exist because of the way it was brought in," says Vince Borg, executive assistant to Liberal Leader David Peterson “From our point of view, hearing people out (in public hearings) is not necessarily bad public relations,” Borg said."It may result in conflict but the most important principle from our point of view is that vou allow people to be heard.” SUPPORT FUNDING While all three political parties support the year-old funding proposal — under which Catholic schools, now funded only to Grade 10, also will get public money for Grades 11 to 13 — intense opposition from churches, teachers and others continues to mount.Some merely want a one-to two-year delay of the funding while the legalities are ironed out.while others vow to fight it to the end.Lewis advises social activism MONTREAL (CP) — South Africa dominates and exploits surrounding countries as well as its own black citizens, Canada's ambassador to the United Nations said Sunday.Stephen Lewis urged students at Concordia University, where he received an honorary doctorate, to “give some small part of their lives to social activism” against racist policies.Earlier in the day, about 400 people marched through the streets of Montreal to the South African consulate to mark the ninth anniversary of the Soweto uprising in which more than 1,000 black students were killed.FLQ member released MONTREAL (CP) — Convicted terrorist Raymond Villeneuve, the last member of the Front de Liberation du Quebec still in custody, has been released from jail on parole.Villeneuve, 41, was serving a 12-year jail term for placing a number of FLQ bombs, including the one that killed security guard Wilfred O’Neil in 1963.When he returned to Canada last November after 16 years of exile in Cuba and France, he had more than seven years of his prison sentence left to serve.Five treated after gas leak MONTREAL (CP) — About 1,000 people were evacuated from their homes and five people were treated in hospital and later released Saturday after chlorine gas poured from a swimming pool supply warehouse gutted by fire in suburban Laval, police said.A Laval municipal police spokesman said residents began returning home early today after Environment Quebec officials determined that the concentration of chlorine gas in the air was negligible.Reasons for bus accident probed MONTREAL (CP) — Investigators have started to probe the reasons a city bus plunged into a nine-metre ditch Sunday, leaving 27 people injured, seven of them seriously.Serge Charette, health and safety officer of the drivers’ local of the Canadian Union of Public Employees, said driver Clement Franck had informed his dispatcher of steering problems before starting his run at 11:30 a.m., but was told to take the bus on the road with 35 passengers aboard.in May.A loss in that byelection would wipe out the PQ’s current one-seat majority in the legislature.Standings in the 122-seat house are PQ 61, Liberals 53, Independents 7 and one vacancy.One of the independents has indicated he intends to vote with the government.At the weekend meeting called to clear up unfinished policy business from a March convention, the 300 Liberal delegates approved resolutions to strenghten the rights of the province’s anglophone minority.Delegates adopted resolutions committing a future Liberal gover-nment to give the anglophone community administrative control over its educational, social service and cultural institutions.Molson’s back to work MONTREAL(CP)— Molson beertrucks started rolling out from Canada’s oldest brewery this morning, marking the end of a three week work stoppage.Molson's Brewery Quebec Ltd.’s 910 workers voted 88 per cent Sunday to approve the new contract.Union spokesman Roland Bertrand said pensions were a key issue in the dispute and Molson workers now have the best pension plan for breweries in Canada.Group says close refinery MONTREAL (CP) — Quebec's largest employers’ group.Le Conseil du patronat, said Sunday the Quebec government should close its "lame duck” Saint-Hilaire sugar refinery which has accumulated a deficit of nearly $10 million.The refinery's annual report was presented to the Quebec legislature Friday and Agriculture Minister Jean Garon has asked cabinet for another $12 million in government funds to help it refine fine sugar.The council said Quebec has poured more than $60 million into the refinery in an effort to make it profitable and claimed the money has been spent in a hopeless task because of high production costs.Conference deadlocked OTTAWA (CP) — With just one day left to reach some agreement, an international conference on human rights reviewing compliance with the 1975 Helsinki accords remained deadlocked.Delegates from all sides said Sunday it will take a miracle to break the impasse between the Soviet bloc and western countries before today’s final session of representatives from 35 countries.Journalist wanted out of Canada OTTAWA (CP) — Award-winning journalist Robert MacNeil admitted Saturday he couldn’t wait to get out of Canada when he graduated from Carleton University 30 years ago.“At the time I was convinced everything in Canada was oppressive and provincial.Everything that mattered seemed to be happening somewhere else.” MacNeil told about 900 graduating students and guests at Carleton’s convocation cermonies Saturday.MacNeil, co-host of PBS’s MacNeil-Lehrer Report, returned to his alma mater over the weekend to receive an honorary doctorate in literature.He told the 300 graduates they were part of the first Canadian generation to escape the intellectual imperialism of Britain and the United States.Better access to abortion wanted TORONTO (CP) — A majority of Canadians wants better access to abortion but most don’t approve of them taking place in clinics, an opinion survey conducted for the Toronto Globe and Mail indicates.Sixty 60 per cent of 2.044 Canadian adults surveyed between April 22 and May 14 by Montreal-based CROP Inc.said the government should ensure that abortions can be obtained in areas where hospitals currently don't perform them.However, only 43 per cent answered “yes” when asked if legal abortions should be performed in medical clinics, while 52 per cent were opposed.Swaggart preaches to 50,000 TORONTO(CP) — It was rock-and-roll religion in a hockey rink during the weekend as Jimmy Lee Swaggart packed 50,000 faithful into three shows at Maple Leaf Gardens.The crowd, including 300 busloads from across Ontario and New York state, began lining up four hours early to see the gospelsinging preacher and champion of the so-called New Right from Louisiana.In the United States, two million people watch his weekly television program broadcast in 65 countries.A cousin of rock-and-roll singer Jerry Lee Lewis, he has eclipsed the likes of Rex Hum-bard and Jerry Falwell.Youth dies in S.African riot SOWETO (AIM — Police fired rubber bullets and barrages of tear gas Sunday to disperse about 1,000 black marchers, some throwing stones, after a service marking the ninth anniversary of anti-apartheid riots in South Africa in 1976.In Daveyton township east of Johannesburg, a crowd of blacks attacked the home of Mayor Tom Boya with rocks and gasoline bombs, and a guard posted outside shot dead one youth in the group, a police spokesman said.One policeman was slightly hurt by a rock and four police vehicles were damaged in a five-minute clash outside Regina Mundi Roman Catholic Church in the vast black township of Soweto, where the nationwide 1976 riots began.Workers agree with conciliators Kohl renounces claims on Poland —_________________frgl itecom

men accused of plotting to kill Pope John Paul, an intriguing picture has begun to emerge of Mehmet Ali Agca’s “right arm,” the mysterious Turk charged as the gunman who got away.Agca, the papal assailant who first claimed he acted alone, later made statements that led to the trial of three Bulgarians and four Turks for complicity in the shooting of the Pope on May 13, 1981.Almost daily

Lapierre, Jean-Claude Malepart (Montreal — Ste-Marie) and Alain Tardif (Richmond-Wolfe) organized the petition signing.A standing-room-only crowd of senior citizens responded with a re-sounding ‘no’ when Malepart asked them if they are willing to sacrifice their pensions in order to cut the deficit.HANDS OUT RELEASE He handed out a Progressive Conservative press release dated July 26,1984 which outlined the Tories’ election promises to the elderly.The number-one point is the “full indexation to the cost of living of old age pensions staring Jan.1, 1985.” “We must offer senior citizens conditions which will help them preserve their autonomy, their privacy and their liberty,” the press release reads.Malepart accused Mulroney of lying to the people.“I hope MPs will remember the promise Mulroney made,” he said.Given a chance at the micro- phone, the elderly people at the petition signing echoed Malepart’s accusation.“What is Mulroney’s word worth?" asked one man.A woman pointed out that it is "cruel” to tell an 85-year-old person that he will get back in five years what the government plans to take away this year.“We live from day to day," she said.Others wondered whether Mulroney would be willing to give up part of his income to reduce the deficit.One man suggested getting rid of a few cabinet ministers and the Senate in order to save money.LOSE $560 According to figures provided by the Liberal MPs, a senior citizen living alone will lose $560 a year between now and 1990, thanks to the cuts.Malepart said besides the pension cuts, the federal budget forces up the cost of living with sales tax on products such as soap, shampoo and toothpaste.Medicine, rent, food and health care costs are ri- sing as well.Liberal MPs are taking their pe tition across Canada and expect to get “hundreds of thousands" of names to present to the Tory government.“We want to prove it isn’t just the Opposition which opposes the cuts,” Lapierre said.Old age clubs and organizations are being asked to circulate the petition and send it to their local MP.The Liberals are planning a rally in Ottawa this Wednesday when the petition will be presented to Mulroney.Representatives of senior citizens organizations from across Canada are scheduled to be there.“1 think the goverment will have to back down,” Lapierre said.“People are enraged.They feel they’ve been betrayed.” “This isn’t a message to the Mulroney government but to all governments tempted to fiddle with old age pensions,” he added.“1 think Mulroney tried it because he thought old people would be quiet and accept their misery." 1 A KII ORI) PHTKH S(X)V.i:N MP Jean-Claude Malepart (Lib.— Mtl-St-Marie) helped collect signatures from pensioners in Sherbrooke Friday as the

working on the planned export powerline to the U S.may mean more farmers will have their land expropriated because there won’t be time to negotiate alternative compensation deals individually, says an official from the provincial utility.But “at least 130” farmers owning property along the line refuse to negotiate compensation with Hydro, according to Clément Lanoue, secretary of the Sherbrooke federation of the Union des producteurs agricole (UPA), the Quebec farmers union.Two weeks ago, Lanoue and about 20farmers ‘kidnapped’ a Hydro pick-up truck which was crossing Roger Scalabrini’s Ste-Edwidge hayfield without permission every day.The workers, who were scaling lumber on an adjacent property in anticipation of cutting it bare this summer to make way for the 450 kv powerline, were allowed to leave but the truck was padlocked in Scalabrini’s pasture.The UPA demanded $1000 in ransom, in an attempt to force the utility into negotiating compensation deals with farmers before its workers enter private property.Scalabrini claimed Hydro never asked his permission or offered damage money for the right to cross his fields.TRUCK RELEASED The truck was released a few days later by court order but it cannot be used until the issue is settled by a judge, according to Lanoue.Jean-Marie Pelletier, a Hydro spokesman in Ste-Hyacinthe, Friday called the trucknapping "purely illegal and pre-planned”.Pelletier said the utility will continue to use the courts to respond to the UPA’s actions.Pelletier also said the construction of the powerline from Nicolet to the U.S.border is under a “very severe” deadline of October, 1986.Keeping Hydro workers from doing their job may mean the utility will run out of time to negotiate individual compensation deals with farmers, he claimed.“We deplore that it (trucknapping) works against property owners,” Pelletier said.“The more the UPA blocks us, the more it cuts into our deadline and the less time there is for negotiations.” Pelletier said Hydro Quebec is offering private property owners $1500 per hectare for a right of passage.He claimed that is as much as most North American companies offer for the same thing.LAST RESORT “We want to negotiate in good faith,” Pelletier said.“If property owners won’t negotiate we ll go to a third party.We only want to expropriate as a last resort.Expro-pration is not our goal in any project.” Lanoue says expropration won’t settle anything, however, and it won’t speed up Hydro’s construction plans.He points out that the only land the utility wants is the land the powerline will pass over.Getting access to the narrow corridor will still have to be negotiated.“Hydro shouldn't think expropration will settle things,” Lanoue said Friday.He added that expropriating land takes “30 to 60 days”, which won’t help Hydro meet its Oct.1986 deadline.According to Lanoue, Hydro isn't offering $1500/hectare to every farmer, Lanoue claims.“Different farmers get different compensation,” he says.“There has to be uniformity.” Lanoue says Hydro is trying to pressure farmers into accepting compensation agreements by telling them it’s either 'sign or be expropriated.’ He claims it won't work.WON’T SIGN “There are at least 130 farmers who won’t sign compensation deals," Lanoue says.“It’s better to be expropriated than to sign under pressure from Hydro.” The conflict stems from the UPA and Hydro’s inability to settle on fixed compensation for farmers.Talks between the two broke off last year because of disagreement over "illogical and impossible principles,” according to Pelletier.Hydro refuses to agree to leave land good for farming after the line is built, Pelletier said.The UPA is demanding the utility company accept this condition, but Pelletier says ‘no’.“We are blocked by a wall on the application of certain principles,” he explained.He said Hydro refuses to leave some inaccessible land ‘good for farming’.Pelletier also said time is running out for an agreement with the UPA.He apparently contradicted himself, however, when he said Hydro Quebec would pay for a joint study with the farmers union to determine which land should be left RH'OKIM

quickly."We can fix this up in one day,” he said."We know what we want.” Lanoue says Hydro and the UPA may reach an agreement this week.He claims there is “a rumor” of a meeting between the two in the next few days.He wouldn’t say where or when it would take place.Lanoue also says the UFA will continue to hassle Hydro if that is what it takes to get what it considers fair compensation for farmers.“We won’t go against the law," he said.“But Hydro has to respect private property.” Bedford line spurs fight by lawyer Denis Paradis By Kevin Dougherty MONTREAL (CP) — “There’s something wrong somewhere,” said an exasperated Denis Paradis, stabbing at the red lines of a map indicating the proposed route for a Hydro-Quebec transmission line.“The hearings are to approve the route,” he said, referring to National Energy Board hearings set to begin Tuesday.“But if you fly over it in a helicopter, you can see that they have already cut a 40-metre path,” he said during an interview in his Montreal office.“So how can they change it?” Hydro-Quebec crews have already cleared away the trees and shrubs from most of the proposed 17.6-kilometre route between Bed- ford and the Vermont border.The 120-kilovolt line is being built to carry 150 megawatts of power to the Vermont Electric Power Co.Inc.under a 10-year, $650-million contract.But Paradis and his neighbor Orabell Bullock are contesting the planned route.Other property owners have settled quietly with the government-owned utility.Bullock is one of three women who lives on the adjoining farm raising dairy cattle and rabbits.TREES PROTECTED Paradis, a lawyer and brother of Liberal member of the Quebec National Assembly Pierre Paradis, pointed on a map to his land and Bullock’s lot, which lie near Bedford.The path narrows across the two tracts to an eight-metre swath Paradis has filed a $186,000 suit against Hydro-Quebec in Quebec Superior Court after a clearing crew cut the eight-metre survey trail without his permission.The utility had sought his approval in a hand-delivered letter May 2.“The day I received that letter they were already on my land cutting trees,” he said.“A neighbor phoned to tell me.” He is suing because his land is registered as a protected woodlot under a provincial forest management law.It stipulates that anyone whose trees are cut without permission can demand compensation of $200 a tree.Paradis is claiming $156,000 for an estimated 780 trees destroyed, plus $30.000 in other damages un- der the Quebec Human Rights Charter.He fears that once the National Energy Board accepts the proposed route there will be nothing to stop Hydro-Quebec from widening it to build additional transmission capacity.Hydro Quebec is also facing trouble with its 450 kv line between Nicolet and the U.S.border.Farmers are up in arms because workers from the utility are crossing their land without asking permission.Two weeks ago some twenty farmers, led by the an official from the Union des producteurs agricole kidnapped a Hydro pick-up truck ami demanded $1000 ransom.The truck later freed through a court order.(See story same page.)

Voice of the Eastern Townships since 1897 Editorial Granny’s goodies Quebec’s industrial behemoth, the state-owned Hydro-Quebec, is once again proving that if you’re big enough, you can still do business in this province without a publie relations team.Hydro-Quebec is Quebec’s most visible industrial giant, and the public utility enjoys an almost mythological place in Quebec history.It’s creation in the early 19(i()s served for many as the harbinger of a modern Quebec society and also became the major political launching pad for Quebec Prime Minister René Lévesque, who as a Liberal cabinet minister supervised the nationalization of the province’s hydroelectric resources.Since that time, the utility has grown to mammoth proportions and is now a major bulwark of Quebec’s wobbly economy.Hydro-Quebec has achieved a lot of which it can be proud, but in its relations with the general public, Hydro is a loser.Fully aware of its importance in the Quebec scheme of things.Hydro regularly behaves as if it were a sovereign power, above the laws of the land and the wishes of the people.As we in the Eastern Townships were clearly shown in the last few years, Hydro’s wishes are frequently our legislators’ and regulatory commissions’ commands.Despite solid, consistant and organized resistance on the part of local residents, Hydro was granted the right to construct a high-tension export line through prime E.T.farmland — owners and residents be damned.True, Hydro was ordered to negotiate compensation for the farmers affected, but this order does not seem to have concerned it as much as the accompanying signal to go ahead.And go ahead it did.In recent weeks an angry group of Eastern Townships farmers, enraged at what they describe as insincere bargaining on the part of the utility, ‘kidnapped’ a Hydro Quebec truck and demanded a $1,000 ransom.If anything, this indicates that things are not going wrell.The problem, of course, as it frequently is with Hydro, is mainly one of attitude.Despite high-sounding statements from its harassed public relations people, the utility prefers to command than to negotiate, and is not averse, it seems, to a little provocation — just to stir things up.The main thing that is angering the trucknappers in St-Edwidge is that hydro workers seem to be under instructions to march onto any piece of property they wish and to start their destructive work without waiting for compensation to have been arranged and without even bothering to inform the owner’ of the property.Similar activities are also alleged in a smaller Hydro project in the Bedford area.Every citizen of this province who finds himself tending to root for the Tittle guy’ fervently, and probably fruitlessly, hopes that a fair-minded court will come along one day and insist that Hydro behave in a civilized manner.Telling farmers in negotiations’ to either settle or be expropriated sounds disturbingly like the nine year-old who threatens to take his ball and bat home unless he is allowed to win.Except in Hydro's case, it's the other fellow’s ball he's threatening to clobber with his big, burnished club.There is a simple means by which Hydro Quebec could avoid constantly being portrayed as a big, bad wolf, but that would require a major attitudinal shift and it is probably one Hydro will balk at making.You see, the big cheeses at Hydro like being the big bad wolf — the wolf got all of grannv’s goodies remember.MICHAEL McDEVITT Rogers Pass tunnel first with new fans GLACIER, B.C.(CP) — Not only will the Mount Macdonald tunnel, now beinj’ built in Rogers Pass, be the longest rail tunnel in North America, it will have a front door — and another in the middle.The huge steel-framed wooden doors, or gates, will be raised and lowered for each train so a sophisticated ventilation system, using five giant fans, can cool the locomotives and sweep out diesel exhaust fumes in the one-way tunnel for westbound traffic.The doors are designed to permit changing the air in the eastern half of the 14.7 kilometre tunnel while a train is still in the western half That way, the tunnel will he able to handle a train every 30 minutes.Cementation Co.(Canada) Ltd of Brampton, Ont., is building a 349-metre shaft from the surface to the midpoint of the tunnel, with separate passages to allow air to flow- in both directions.As a train approaches from the east, the front door will open automatically, while the mid-tunnel door remains down.Two huge purge fans will force fresh air down the shaft into the eastern section to cool the locomotives and expel exhaust fumes back out the east portal, assisted by a cooling fan at the entrance.RAISE MU) DOOR When the train reaches the middle, the door there will be raised.After the train passes, the door will be lowered again and air from the west portal will be sucked around the train and expelled through the mid-point vent by twin cooling fans at the top of the shaft.At the same time, the purge fans will be pushing fresh air down the shaft into the empty eastern section.CP Rail says this is the first time such a system is being used for a rail tunnel in the Western Hemisphere.The doors w ill be made of breakable wood panels — just in ease.Your average 100 car freight train doesn't stop on a dime.The tunnel will he concrete-lined and illuminated.Like all new CP Rail facilities, it s being designed to handle future electrification of the main rail line between Calgary and Vancouver, although such a conversion isn't likely in this century.Corporate crime costlier than street variety NEW YORK (CP) From Wall Street to Park Avenue, corporate crime is the talk of the town this spring.Respected banks have been caught laundering drug money.Defence contractors have been fingered for ripping off the Pentagon.Fifth Avenue boutiques have been accused of fraud.A established securities firm has confessed to a multi billion-dollar cheque kiting scheme.Much of U.S.business, and many key players in the Reagan administration.dismiss the recent spate of corporate crime as an exception to the rule.Newspaper articles in recent weeks quote executives suggesting the crimes such as E.F Hutton's one-billion-dollar cheque fraud, or First Bank of Boston’s failure to report $1.3-billion worth of $20 bills — may be dramatic, but not symptomatic.“There’s probably less corporate crime today than there has been in the past," one chief executive told The New York Times this week.“But what there is is getting more headlines.Ever since Watergate, people have been looking under the bed for something." The public appears to disagree.Recent polls suggest less than a third of Americans believe businessmen are honest; more than half believe they are dishonest.Increasingly, incidents of corporate illegality and immorality arc assumed to be the price the United States is paying for four years of deregulation.a trillion-dollar defence buildup and the pro-business bias of President Ronald Reagan's government.Deregulation, combined with high-interest tight money, has created a fiercely competitive business environment where ethical companies have a hard time surviving, criminologist Herbert Edelhertz suggests.Many of the crimes revealed in recent months have benefitted corporate balance sheets rather than employee’s pockets.Larry Black Consumer advocate Ralph Nader says the administration’s ideological bent has left companies less afraid of getting caught.‘‘The Reagan administration has indicated that it is the friend of the business community and sensitive to it, and it has been looking the other way,” Nader says.But others argue that corporate immorality is part of the machine that drives the U.S.economy, a no-holds-barred selfishness that Reagan’s economic policies have made respectable, not invented.Columnist Russell Baker wrote in the New York Times last Sunday that greed has become acceptable in a “pragmatic” United States.He said a man called him “callous and cold-blooded” — “Being an American, he knows how to flatter his countrymen.” “Brutal, heartless, merciless,” the man went on.“1 blushed at praise normally reserved for Clint Eastwood.” Corporate immorality in the United States — much of it the result of acceptable and encouraged institutional greed — suggest it has reached the point where it is costing American society far more dearly than violent street crime.The statistics "indicate that the recent headlines are less spectacular aberrations than revealing examples,” Mark Green and John Berry wrote in the liberal weekly The Nation.“Corporate illegality has become a several-billion-a-year albatross around the economy’s neck.It lowers productivity, inhibits innovation, boosts prices, misallocates resources, increases injuries and causes deaths.” LESS SERIOUS?Despite the recent visibility of white-collar crime and public demands for stronger penalties, law enforcement continues to view corporate illegality and immorality as much less serious than street crime.“While the suffering exacted by violent crime should not be deprecated, ” Green and Berry argue, “it is also true that the loss of lives and dollars from unsafe products, pollution and pricefixing greatly exceeds that from all the Saturday night specials in America.” Statistics show that 60 per cent of large U.S.companies have had at least one charge brought against them; 42 per cent have had multiple charges."Of America’s 500 largest corporations, 115 have been convicted in the last decade of at least one major crime or have paid civil penalties for serious misbehaviour,” U.S.News and World Report notes.“Among the 25 biggest firms, the rate of documented misbehavior has been even higher.” Traditional corporate lawbreaking — fraud, bribery, price-fixing and the like — has been well-documented, and occur with enough regularity that economists are able to estimate their rough annual cost to the U.S.economy.Estimates of the economic costs of price-fixing — which artificially raises the cost of products — range from $32 billion to $265.5 billion a year.The American Management Association estimated in 1977 that commençai bribery and kickbacks range from $3.5 billion to $10 billion a year.But American corporations also routinely flaunt environmental laws, as well as engaging in production practices which while not illegal, cost the U.S.economy billions a year, note Green and Berry.Industrial water pollution causes $10.1 billion worth of damage a year in lowered property values and restrictions on recreational activités.Similarly a Environmental Protection Agency study conducted in 1979-well before the acid rain phenomenon reached its current proportions — estimated that a 60-per-cent decrease in sulphate emissions would save the United States between $33.5 billion and $74 billion a year.Some 226 million tons of hazardous chemical wastes — radioactive materials, heavy metals, asbestos, acids synthetic and organic chemnicals — are dumped every year, 80 per cent of them illegally.The eventual cleanup of the 32,000 dump sites currently known to be leaking has been estimated at more than $100 billion.Industrial wastes, product defects and unsafe working conditions — often the result of corporate attempts to cut production costs — also figure in a substantial number of deaths and serious injuries each year, a tragic and costly drain on the American economy.Between seven and 10 per cent of the 450,000 cancer deaths in the United States each year can be attributed to artificial chemicals.The National Journal estimates that dangerous and misused products account for 28,000 deaths and 130,000 serious injuries every year.In 1978, occupational accidents cost the United States $23 billion in lost wages, medical expenses, insurance claims and production delays.The tab for treating the victims of industrial diseases would be about $30 billion to $50 billion a year, said the U.S.Department of Labor.“Corporate malfeasance has become a tax of several billions of dollars a year which cheats consumers and undermines the integrity of the business system," Green and Berry conclude.Letter Ojfwal CBC policy or base pandering ?Dear Sir: Not knowing to whom I should write in the CBC hierarchy, Em appealing to you for an answer.Why is it that French announcers on the CBC radio are intelligent enough to realize that their audience is French and, therefore, speak to them in their own language while English announcers give their listeners a mish-mash of both?Is this official CBC policy or base pandering on the part of the anglophone employees?Just recently, on CBC Quebec city, I heard Tracy, Quebec, pronounced Trass-EE, Kaybec.All of the announcers seem to eschew “court house”; it is the Pal-Ay de Jus-TISS; The Shom-bra de Comm-AIRCE and, unbelievably, they sign off at night from “le Muzzah de la Rah-jo Cana-DA"! I almost barfed when I heard Jeanette Kelly refer to radio station Say Hash A1 Tay.Jacques Bureau, the late, lamented weather forecaster, knew to whom he was speaking.He didn’t refer to the Estrie or Pore Cartier or Parc Lorenteed.It wasn't a question of courage, either.Merely intelligence.In God's name, has the CBC Anglo-Saxon become so craven that he dare not use the greatest language in the world in public?French announcers (and rightly so) refer to Londres — not London.They speak of Vare-monh, not Vermont; Nova Scotia is Nouvelle Ecosse.If Yvan Huneault (who pronounces French either as if each word was excised from his mouth with a scalpel or else is trying to talk through a keyhole) w ants to give each foreign word its just due, will he please say Kob-nhavn from now on.NOT Copenhagen.And refer to Bare-lean, not Berlin.Also, please get those cute, little Welsh towns right as well as the ones in Hungary.It would behoove many of the announcers to learn to pronounce their own language correctly.Fm tired of hearing of the “vetranary” from “T’ronto”.Also of the “pTite PTeece-man in Montr’al whose c’reer ws ruined because he b’leeved in using g’ril-la tactics on crim’nals." The CBC should get Lamont Tilden and Lome Greene or any of the announcers of a few years back to teach the present ones proper enunciation.Maybe they would learn that the letters QU are almost invariably pronounced in English as KW, not KAY nor KUH, etc.I can’t take much more of this groveling.I think I’ll move to Day-tro-ah or Bri’sh C’lumbia if it continues.Respectfully, D.W.PRANGLEY, Stanstead a ôhovtfifui to smi r us \ À Agency rehearses for possible Armageddon By Rodney Binder ALEXANDRIA, Va.(Reuter) — Down a leafy highway, opposite a golf course in this comfortable suburb of Washington, D.C., U.S.scientists spend their days wrestling with the world's worst nightmare.Doomsday is their daily diet, Ar-maggedon their art in a world of hydrogen bombs and missiles, lasers and pulses, gamma and X-rays, heat and blast and nuclear winter.In a plain brick building is the head office of DNA — the Defence Nuclear Agency, an obscure branch of the Pentagon that daily practices the Third World War to make sure the United States would win the real thing.This is the business tip of the western world’s strategic umbrella.While the U.S.Energy Department develops and builds nuclear weapons, the DNA determines their use.A DETERRENCE?Critics have called it the sleaziest job in the Pentagon The DNA says it is the mainstay of deterrence.“None of us would say we know very clearly what a war would be like except that it would be awful, and that’s why we are doing everything possible to prevent it,” said Marvin Atkins, deputy director for science and technology at the DNA.“We view our work as a very important deterrent to war.That’s what we're here for." The agency spends almost half a billion dollars a year looking after 20,000 or more U.S.nuclear weapons, recording hourly where they are and in what condition and testing their lethality and survivability in full-scale war.In a concrete chamber behind a 50-tonne door, the DNA has a mammoth machine called Aurora, after the Roman goddess of dawn, which zaps MX missiles and other weapons with 10 million volts to see if they break.SIMULATES BOMB Aurora simulates the high energy X-ray radiation hurled out by a nuclear bomb Real explosions are expensive — about $40 million each — and, under the 1963 U.S.-Soviet atmospheric test ban treaty, must take place underground, where it is difficult to place lots of large items for slamming and sizzling.Tests of blast and heat on strue turcs, submarines, aircraft and other material take place in the New Mexi co desert.The DNA staged the first big U.S.simulation of an air burst in 1983 with 600 tonnes of fertilizer, diesel, liquid oxygen and aluminium powder.The eruption created temperatures of 4,580 degrees F.MX, Minuteman, Poseidon and Trident missiles and combat aircraft have been lashed with electromagnetic pulses to make sure they would fly on amid nuclear interference.USE MONKEYS Monkeys and rats have been irradiated with gamma rays in an effort to find out how fighting men would function in a radioactive environment.Rocks the size of concert halls have been melted by nuclear warheads in tunnels under Nevada.Critics say the DNA.whose emblem is a shield and three arrows on a lattice-work of atoms and mushroom clouds, makes nuclear war more likely by trying to ensure it could be won.But the agency says it has developed no attachment to the bomb."I don’t think anyone is more aware than people in this building of how terrible a nuclear war would be,” said Atkins.“I don't think there’s anyone here who envisions himself as a survivor, for example.“There is a continuing tension between making nuclear war so horrible that you feel it diminishes the chances of ever having a war, and on the other hand making nuclear war more survivable so that if, God forbid, one should occur things wouldn’t perhaps be quite so bad.” There are “vast imponderables” about what a real war would be like, he said, but many predictions based on simulations will be borne out STUDY WINTER’ Atkins said the agency was pursuing research into “nuclear winter,” the theory that burning cities would exude so much smoke the sun would be blotted out and Earth would freeze.DNA work has shown the impact of fires on climate might not be as bad as feared, he said, adding: "If further work bears out current results, we might reduce the problem by a third." The DNA will spend $100 million this year researching systems for President Ronald Reagan's antimissile strategic defence initiative, popularly dubbed Star Wars.Lasers, kinetic energy weapons, particle beams and an array of other exotica will be toyed with, some in simulated space battlegrounds.Atkins said conclusions would await several years of hard work.We viewthe most important single element of deterrence as making the Soviets understand they couldn’t achieve any goal of their own by initiating a conflict i f ffiywpg!

Ambassador to the United States, says he's becoming increasingly concerned about the growth and impact of protectionist forces south of the border.Gotlieb told a conference on Ca-nadian-U.S.trade in energy that the high number of protectionist proposals before Congress is making him more wary about the legislative possibilities which could hurt Canada economically.“We have a great deal to worry about," he said later in an interview last week.“I’m more worried than a year ago.” In an overview of trade relations at the opening of the tw o-day conference sponsored by the Canadian and American bar associations, Gotlieb said the Reagan administration strongly supports more free trade and fewer restrictions between the two countries, but the situation is much different in Congress.He said there are about 200 proposals before Congress advocating more protection of domestic goods from imports — which are benefiting from a competitive edge in their cheaper currencies against the strong U.S.dollar.“There is a strong protectionist tide at the grass-roots level and that is reflected in Congress,” he said Gotlieb said because of the large trade imbalance in the U.S., the mood in Congress is volatile."It likely won’t get much better as we approach the mid-term elections," he said.“Indeed, it could get worse.” Although President Ronald Reagan can veto Congressional legislation.continuing protectionist pressure will make it “more difficult for the administration not to do anything.” He said later that Congress may include protectionist measures in other bills that would make it even harder for Reagan to veto them STUDIES IMPACT Gotlieb said there is a "50-50 chance" some of the proposed le gislation will get final approval.However, it isdifficult to assess the potential effect on Canada.He cited legislation that Congressman Sam Gibbons, chair man of the House trade sub committee, introduced last month which seeks to extend the definition of subsidies under U.S.trade law to include practices applied to natural resources.“As drafted, this bill causes Canada considerable concern.” For example the bill has specific language that protects U.S.lumber producers from growing competition of Canadian softwood imports Under the bill, Canadian stum-page fees, the prices charged by provinces for the right to cut standing timber on Crown lands, would be deemed a subsidy simply because they’re lower than in the U.S."If implemented as it now stands, this bill would have a very damaging impact on the Canadian lumber industry," he said."Although our lumber exports are the most seriously threatened, other resource-based exports could also be affected by the legislation, including the petrochemical sectors.” Division has developed at hearings of the U.S.International Trade Commission and the U.S.Special Trade Representative about pursuing policies of free trade or creating more tariffs to protect business.Prime Minister Brian Mulroney and Reagan agreed in Quebec City in March to have their trade ministers explore a mechanism for reducing and eliminating barriers to Canada-U S.trade and report back to them by Sept.17.British Columbians still not familiar with recessions and unemployment Young people lining up at food banks in once-prosperous Vancouver demonstrate that the recession is tar from over for many Canadians.The following are two parts of a series by Canadian Press reporter Paul Gessell.who tra veiled across the country to obtain an impression of how Canadians are faring in 1985.By Paul Gessell VANCOUVER tCP) — Peanut butter, that staple of many Canadian breakfast tables, has become something special for thousands of British Columbians.“We sometimes put peanut butter in the bags as a treat,” says Craig Taylor of the Vancouver Food Bank as he stands in a room filled with thousands of paper bags containing potatoes, onions and tinned vegetables.Almost 11,000 bags of food were distributed to Vancouver's hungry poor in April from the bank’s six depots, and executive director Sylvia Russell is not expecting that number to decrease for a long time.The recession that battered most of Canada in the early 1980s appears to be receding in many areas of the country.But it still grips British Columbia, where the unemployment rate was 13.8 per cent in May, the highest rate outside Atlantic Canada.The national average was 10.5 per cent.For decades, British Columbia was considered Lotus Land — plentiful jobs, high incomes, generous welfare benefits and mild weather.Some people are not even sure about the weather these days.NOT POOREST It is not the poorest province.Newfoundland, with its 22.5-percent unemployment rate, wins that dubious award.But Newfoundland is no stranger to adversity.British Columbians are dealing with the unfamiliar.Slumps in the forestry, fishing and mining industries keep B.C.’s unemployment rate high, and critics of the Social Credit government say cuts in welfare benefits are keeping the unemployed hungry.The situation appears particu- larly critical among the young, as their unemployment insurance benefits expire and welfare becomes the only option.An able-bodied person 25 years old or younger starting out on welfare in British Columbia receives $325 a month — a $115 decrease from a few years ago.A study last November by the Vancouver-area United Way of the Lower Mainland found that a single person must spend at least $167.75 a month on food for a “nutritious diet.” That leaves $157.25 for everything else in an area where the average bachelor apartment rents for more than $300 a month.MORE ARE YOUNG The young and single are increasingly squeezing their way into the food bank lineups.At the downtown depot at Christ Church Cathedral, they wait for their precious bag of groceries while older, richer shoppers hurry by carrying expensive-looking parcels.Russell says the average food bank recipient two years ago came from a household of 2.5 people Now it is 1.8 people — a reflection of the growing poverty among the young and single.Twenty-seven per cent of the people seeking free groceries are now 18 years old or younger.Fifty-four per cent of all recipients are single.Hunger is only one of the byproducts of the B.C.recession.Lillian Boulger is the mother of two sons in their 20s who are sitting at home, idle and despondent.On Mother’s Day, Boulger made a special request during evening chapel at First United Church in downtown Vancouver: “Let’s pray for all the young people trying to find summer jobs,” the middle-aged, middle-class woman asked.Later, sipping coffee in the church hall, Boulger says: "The hardest part of being a mother is trying to keep their spirits up .They feel so bad, being dependent on us.They know they can't leave home.” Other people from the congregation, including Rev.John Cashore.Old Cowtown: What happens out there doesn’t affect us There are some areas in Canada that seem relatively unaffected by booms or busts in the economy.One of these communities.Maple Creek.Sask.was visited by reporter Paul Gessell during a cross-country train trip to gain an impression of how Canadians are faring in 1985.By Paul Gessell MAPLE CREEK.Sask.(CP) —The father and son at Sidekicks restaurant did not bother to remove their cowboy hats as they silently ate their steak and fries.The buttons on their embroidered shirts were pearl but their jeans carried no fancy designer label on the hip-pocket.The two men appeared to have emerged from the photographs on the wall showing stern-faced cowboys, railwaymen, North-West Mounted Police and other characters who first settled Maple Creek in the 1880s.“Our nickname is the Old Cowtown,” says Mayor Jack Bell.“W'e probably have some of the last genuine cowboys in the country.” The young folks may get dolled up in slinky dresses and tight pants when a popular rock band plays at Sidekicks, but it’s back to cowboy gear for the weekly cattle auctions in the dusty Prairie town.IT’S STABLE’ People who live in this community of about 2,500; midway between Regina and Calgary, frequently use the word “stable” when describing their home town to a reporter making a crosscountry train trip to gain an impression of how Canadians are faring in 1985’s economy.“What happens out there doesn’t affect us,” says Bell.The recession that gripped much of the country in the early 1980s and is still hurting many communities largely passed by this town.“It seemed to go right around us,” says Bell.“It didn’t seem to affect our community.” Joan Duncan, the pharmacist’s wife, self-described hockey mom.Conservative member of the legislature for Maple Creek, and provincial minister of consumer and commercial affairs, says a solid agricultural base of wheat farming and ranching keeps the town’s economy on a fairly even keel.That assessment was endorsed by the ranchers and farmers attending a Conservative party social at the Legion Hall, with its tartan wallpaper, portrait of Queen Victoria and talk of another drought.“Our booms are small and our busts are small,” says one man as he carves an eight-kilogram roast of beef.DOESN’T LAST Droughts, grasshoppers and low beef prices come and go but somehow adversity never lasts too long or knocks the stuffing out of people, residents say.“These guys, they have to have a lot of nerve and be terrific optimists and most of them are,” says Geoff Wilson, Conservative MP for Swift Current-Maple Creek.“We’re tough,” says Mildred Gilchrist, who immigrated from Montana in 1914 and now lives in a senior citizens' home called Southview Manor.You can see the toughness on the weatherbeaten faces of the men and women who drive into town on a Friday night in dust-covered halftons for dinner at the century-old Commercial Hotel.The dining room looks like some fancy eatin’ parlor from television’s Gunsmoke — brass fittings, beamed ceilings and a collection of massive wood-and-leather armchairs stuffed with horsehair.Only the six-shooters are missing.Nearby on Jasper Street, other heritage buildings with false fronts and patterned tin coverings are approaching their centennial and their 20th coat of paint.PROUD OF TOWN Current residents are fiercely proud of Maple Creek and its history, former residents are homesick.and the surrounding ranchers are waiting for retirement to come here to die.Duncan says there is “a homing pigeon instinct” in this community just north of the Cypress Hills, an area where the buffalo once roamed and the antelope still play.People always come back.“I think it has to do with the winds.There’s a type of wind that’s only found in three places in the world — in the Rhine Valley, some valley in California and in the Cypress Hills of Canada.It’s not every wind, but it has something to do with ionization.Maybe that’s what’s attracting them back all the time.” Mayor Bell is an example.He and his wife left in 1955 to work elsewhere but returned in 1975 after an unhappy 14-month experiment with retirement in Duncan, B.C.“We had a little too much gopher in us (for B.C.),” Bell says with a chuckle.After the 20-year absence, Bell’s wife found herself playing cards with the same women in the same bridge club.Stability, they all say.GROWING OLDER The town’s population has even remained at a stable 2,500 for the last 35 years.But that situation could change.About 35 per cent of the town’s residents are over 65 years of age.“The best-off man in our community is the funeral director,” Bell says.But the town’s population could also benefit from the latest federal-provincial energy agreement that many expect will increase natural gas exploration in the area.And some still hope oil will be discovered.Just a year ago, people in Maple Creek were cursing the federal government’s energy policies, blaming them for the recession in nearby Alberta.Those energy policies had fuelled talk of western separatism.Duncan warns that separatism could rise again in a more potent form.When Pierre Trudeau and his Central-Canada Liberals were in power, “we could blame everything on him,” Duncan says.But now there is a Conservative government in Ottawa with a full complement of westerners and if the West still cannot get a fair shake from Confederation, there will be “deep trouble.” join the discussion and begin talking about the unemployed sons or daughters they are all supporting.ANGER GROWS People are getting increasingly angry, says Kim Zander, who works out of the Unemployed Action Centre a few blocks aw’ay, helping welfare and unemployment insurance recipients battle bureaucracy.“When people have been unemployed for two years or more, they get angry,” she says.Zander's agency helped organized “a symbolic completion”of the 1935 trek by relief camp workers in British Columbia to Ottawa.Some of the original protesters plan to take part, hut they won’t be riding the rails this time.The 1935 march ended in Regina, when police opened fire on the demonstrators.Only a small delegation actually made it to Ottawa to sec R .B.Bennett, the Conservative prime minister of the day.“We don't expect a helluva lot of difference between (Prime Minister Brian) Mulroney and Bennett because his policies are exactly the same as Bennett’s policies were in those days,” says Zander.FUNDS CUT She blames Mulroney for w'hat she says are attempts by the federal Unemployment Insurance Commission to weed out cheaters, often at the expense of bona fide recipients.Government funding for her own organization was cut after the federal Tories came to power.And Zander blames the other Bennett — B.C.Premier Bill Bennett — for denying welfare recipients adequate funds.She talks of a man denied dentures by welfare officials who claimed teeth were not necessary to his good health, and of a mother unable to get a crib or diapers for her baby.The B.C.government defends its social spending cuts by saying restraint is needed in tough economic times and that the future will improve as Expo 86 opens its doors to the world and projects are generated from a recent $525 million regional development agreement with Ottawa.Many are not convinced.“There is a feeling in British Columbia that something has gone dreadfully wrong,” says Nelson Riis, New Democratic Party MP for Kamloops-Shuswap.“It is the only province in Canada where the situation continues to deteriorate.1 think it is fair to say that when we mention British Columbia, people start to look at you kind of peculiarly and kind of laugh at what is going on in that part of Canada.The British Columbia government has turned that province into a laughing stock and people do not invest in laughing stocks.” BROKE COVENANT At the food bank, Russell and Taylor say governments made a covenant with the public following the Second World War that the poor would be given an “adequate” standard of living.Without any public debate, that covenant has been broken, they say, and agencies such as food banks, which receive no government funding, must now go door-to-door asking for a tin of tomatoes or a jar of peanut butter to feed the hungry.That’s one side of hunger in Van couver.Taylor also knows of another side that illustrates what appears to be a growing gap between rich and poor in this country “The restaurants are opening a mile a minute," he says.“You’ve got to have reservations for any lunch hour in Vancouver.The yuppie crowd is there and they’re making money like crazy."

In the words of the official brochure, these are "also the works that the artist chose to keep" out of the 20,000 pieces he produced before he died in April 197.1 at age 91.In fact, as Brunei conceded in an interview.64 have appeared elsewhere, mainly in France or other European countries.The official catalogue — whose reasonable $35 price reflects the exhibit’s intended populist appeal — shows piany appeared at Galerie Louise Leiris, Picasso’s last dealer in Paris, at the Palais des Papes in Avignon in 1973, and in Paris and Nimes in 1982 and 1984.Secondly, the Montreal paintings are only part of Picasso’s vast personal collection because Jacqueline, after nearly five years of legal battling with siblings and a tax-hungry French government, got only a quarter of his unwilled estate."There’s also an implication that because they’re the ones he kept for himself, they are the best ones — which is not necessarily the case," Nixon said in an interview.HAS REASONS "An artist will have many reasons for keeping works .personal reasons, or for reasons which have to do with his own development as an artist.” Indeed.Picasso’s most celebrated pieces, such as Guernica or Les Demoiselles d’Avignon, are not in the show.They remain in museums in Spain and New York respectively Judging from the catalogue, what the public will see is a spiri- ted cross-section that ranges from a moody Blue Period nude to an almost childlike Musketeer painted 11 months before Picasso’s death."It's Jacqueline’s very personal view of high points in her husband’s creative development,’’ said John Richardson, a close friend of Picasso in the 1950s and now his authorized biographer, living in New York.Brunei, a marketing specialist with a graduate degree in fine arts, bristles at suggestions that the museum has misrepresented the show's content and defends her high-powered ad campaign.But she frankly admits her promotion efforts have added a cachet of exclusivity to lure a bigger crowd — as if the name Picasso was not enough to guarantee a full house.MORE VALUABLE’ "If this would have been just another show of Picasso, it would not have had the same charisma or message, obviously.The fact that it’s once in a lifetime, more than likely, in North America makes it all the more valuable." Also standing to benefit is Mrs.Picasso herself, because a high-calibre museum exhibit can push up the market value of each work on display.She personally appears on at least four canvasses, but that's the closest most people will get to the woman who sheltered Picasso for the last 23 years of his prolific, passionate life.Now 59, she’s obssessed with avoiding the public limelight but plays a powerful role in deciding how her husband's legacy is exposed.Before she accepted an invitation from Quebec Cultural Affairs Minister Clement Richard to bring some of her collection to Montreal, she personally inspected the city and the museum.Richard’s department is paying $1.5 million to organize the show.Later, she worked with curators Pierre Theberge and Louise d’Argencourt, who did last year’s Bougureau retrospective, and selected The Acrobat as the show’s ubiquitous signature piece.NOT COLLECTOR “Usually it's not the collector who selects what will be on display and how it will be presented,” Brunei said."However.Mrs.Picasso is the only one who has an intimate knowledge of Picasso's creation.It’s been a team approach under her guidance.Says Richardson, who has helped the museum promote the show in the U.S.: "She feels the paintings in her own private collection should be shown, and to their best advantage."But she doesn’t want this to be a pretext for a lot of tam-tam.In nature, she’s very reclusive and she wants attention concentrated on the paintings primarily.That’s why she wants control.” Luckily for the tourist industry, Picasso is happening in Montreal at the same time as the treasures of ancient Egyptian pharoah Ramses II on the old Expo67 site.Both shows have also overshadowed Aurora Borealis, an important show of contemporary Canadian art which opens in Montreal this weekend.I could not find a pair that stayed together I gave up on those lovely, glossy fashion magazines a few years ago when they became so expensive.I have missed them very much so yesterday became a red letter day for me when a neighbor dropped by and asked me casually if I would like to look over some magazines that she had marked for the garbage.I could barely contain my joy.As soon as she left.I grabbed the top one, took the phone off the hook and retreated to my big chair.With childlike delight I gazed at the shiny cover when a punk-haired girl eyed me sullenly, but she was not going to spoil my fun.There were three hundred or so pages mostly devoted to advertising expensive, glamorous products.The colors were bright and beautiful; eyes, hair, nails and lips all glistened but it seems that it is no longer chic to look happy.These models pouted, challenged and defied but Little House By Katharine Snow rarely smiled.Eyes started accusingly from under blue, green or purple lids.Lips hang open to show spectacular teeth but not one girl looked like anyone you would want your son to bring home.The magazine was so posh that it included small, scented order forms with preaddressed envelopes to facilitate the ordering of new perfumes.Turning the pages slowly, I felt as Alice must have felt amid the eccentricities of Won- Good neighbors can save lives Ann Landers Dear Ann Landers: When I read the letter from “Brother’s Keeper” in Newark, I had to write.The couple attempted to rescue the woman next door whose husband was beating her.The would—be Samaritans were greeted with a frying pan in the face and “Butt out ! ’’ from the abused wife, no less.How I wish “Brother’s Keeper" had lived next door to me.I moved 2,000 miles away from family and friends to be with a man I thought I loved.After only a few weeks he turned violent.It began with a slap across the face (the roast was too rare) and then he started to use his fists.One night when I came home late from work, he flew into a jealous rage and started to knock me around.He split my lip and pounded my head against the wall.I was afraid he might kill me.I screamed for help.No help came.We lived in a four-family flat so I know someone MUST have heard me.The next morning I awakened with two black eyes and a swollen jaw.I packed as much as I could get into my car and headed for home.Please, Ann, tell your readers to keep on being good neighbors.For every frying pan in the face, there are 50 grateful women, and may be some lives saved.— Neighborless in Fort Worth But Happy To Be Back In Oregon.Dear Happy: There are some awfully nice people in Fort Worth.Too bad you didn’t live near any of them.The next letter may be of interest to you.Dear Ann Landers: I agree with your response to “Brother's Keeper."

that stayed together.They part at the most awkward angles, one foot usually turns inward looking for its partner.To dwell on the cosmetic advertisements would be to weep They looked so gorgeous and they promised so much.How about Line Preve-nors, Night Repair or B-12 Morning Recovery Solution?Recently I read an article by a Swedish dermatologist.He stated that the sole requirement for youthful skin was sufficient moisture.He was such a believer in soaking and slashing that he counselled women to keep a spray bottle of water always near and to moisten the face frequently throughout the day.How ironical if after all the fabulously expensive oils, creams, lotions and masks, good old H20 turned out to be the miracle maker.I shall never pay $265 for a knitted halter or $2060 for a "little restaurant" dress from Bill Bass ; never get a punk haircut or yellow lizard pumps ($315).I did not even return the form to Calvin Klein with my $160 for an ounce of his perfume.I could do none of those wondrous things but I certainly had a magic afternoon.rses I ILL T\N|£ Course t«te *£%*«»«* ^nesnoP \98S-"'" Lennoxv)"e R,cnro°nd Coupe*'*'6 — " , nle couf5^51 i ^ ^inuuiuon An,n
