TORONTO (CPi — The Grand Council of 10.000 Cree in Northern Quebec has been granted international non-governmental organization status at the United Nations.The status, which allows the Cree to appear before and submit information directly to member nations in the UN's Economic and Social Council, is a measure of how far they have come in less than two decades.‘ We re very pleased our nation is getting this recognition.” said Philip Awashwish.executive chief of the Grand Council.The move means the Cree will join an international group that includes such varied organizations as the Palestine Liberation Orga- nization and the International Chamber of Commerce At the UN.the Cree will be advising a council committee drafting an international standard of treatment of indigenous peoples, a document UN member states will be asked to endorse.Only 16 years ago.many Cree were hunters and trappers, scatte- Johnson: Don’t look in rear-view mirror STE-MARIE-DE-BEAUCE (CP) — Parti Québécois Leader Pierre Marc Johnson warned hardliners in the party caucus to stop fighting old battles over independence as the party’s two-day caucus meeting opened Monday.Johnson's message was aimed at PQ finance critic Jean Garon.who Federal spending tops $122 billion despite cuts in public service New status will give Quebec Cree international visibility He added that although the group is not permitted to be overtly political.both the good and the bad about how the Cree arc treated while the James Bay Agreement is implemented will be internationally visible.“We now have a forum to express our views on the question of the government's obligations toward the Cree." Awashish added Monday.He also said the Créé s status w as granted in part because of the experience and the advice they can offer as the Indians who have negotiated and are implementing Canada's only modern treaty — the James Bay Agreement.Moses said Soviet officials have asked him to tour aboriginal communities in the Soviet Union to discuss the preservation of native languages and cultural heritage.Bill meant to protect rights of victims said on the weekend the party should clarify its policy on independence and include its fundamental declaration of principles in the party program when it revised it in June.“Those who want to look in the rear-view mirror instead of in front will be all alone." Johnson told reporters at a restaurant where the 23-member caucus is meeting.He cautioned them not to "scratch old scars" and open a debate "that only 12 people in Quebec will understand." Garon.who recently quit the PQ executive so he could speak more openly in favor of independence, retorted that he was far from alone and was holding to his position.Johnson wants the party program to indicate that the PQ is dedicated to independence but should work to broaden Quebec’s powers within Canada in the short term.Garon and other former PQ cabinet ministers, including Louise Hard and Bernard Landry, oppose that gradualist view.red and unorganized m eight remote communities hundreds of kilometres apart in the trackless wilderness ot Northern Quebec.They were regarded as so politi cally insignificant Quebec Pit mier Robert Bourassa did not consult them about his proposed James Bay hydroelectric project, about to flood their hunting and trapping territory and some of their communities.But the Cree organized and their 1973 court challenge led to the signing of the 1975 James Bay Agreement that gave them $137 million over 20 years, a modified form of self-government and development of their own business corporations including a small air service.Grand Chief Ted Moses said Monday the status will give the Cree access to LIN facilities and allow them to share their expertise.Relais St-François: Inside the fence By Eric Beauchesne OTTAWA (CPI — Senior federal bureaucrats will share a $4.5-million reward for helping the government keep the lid on spending, a move condemned Monday by one opposition critic as payoffs for layoffs.But the government’s annual spending estimates released earlier in the day show that spending restraint by department chiefs, further cuts in the public service and a slowdown in the growth of public debt charges will not be enough to keep total federal spending from rising to a record $122.6 billion in the fiscal year beginning April 1.The growth of 5.1 per cent in projected spending from $116.6 billion this year, a rate more than a full percentage point higher than the anticipated inflation rate, is also the largest annual increase in spending since the Tories came to power.In 1984-85, the year the Tories were elected, spending jumped by 13 per cent to $109.2 billion.It rose by another 1.8 per cent in 1985-86 and by 4.9 per cent in 1986-87.In tabling the estimates.Treasury Board President Robert de Co-tret said the government will also l)e Cotret.squarely on track.cut the equivalent of 3,072 full-time positions from the public service in the new fiscal year, following the reduction of nearly 5.500 positions this year.The cuts will reduce the size of the public service to 233,454 in the coming year and will keep the government "squarely on track" to meet its target of reducing the size of the public service by 15,000 by 1990-91.de Cotret said in a prepared statement.And for their efforts in helping keep department spending down and productivity up.senior managers who have done a good job will get $4.5 million in bonuses worth up to 1.5 per cent of their salary.And that’s more than 90 per cent of all senior managers, a Treasury Board official said.The bonuses will be paid to 5,600 managers and will range from $435 up to $1,800 for top bureaucrats."It's clear that this government has now created a heirarchy of hit men in the public service,” said Liberal Treasury Board critic George Baker.He said the recipients of the bonus are responsible for the layoffs of poorer-paid public servants."This is a government of layoffs for payoffs.” he said, suggesting the $4.5 million would have been better spent creating jobs rather than eliminating them.However, de Cotret defended the bonus payments, telling the Commons that the salary range for the top category of public servants was frozen last year and that the increase in the range for the next two top categories was minimal.And at a news conference, de Cotret said that despite the cuts in public service jobs last year he expects less than 500 will actually have been laid off and that no more than 500 will be laid off in the coming year.But Michael Cassidy.NDP MP for Ottawa Centre, said the government could have used the $4.5 million to ensure no one in the public service was laid of!

situation you should always ask yourself, “Why didn’t he lead a heart?” Since the obvious answer is that the diamond is a singleton, you should go right up with dummy’s ace.Now what about trumps?Is either opponent likely to have four spades?The bidding tells you that the one defender who cannot have four spades is East.If he did, West would have only one spade as well as only one diamond, and he would surely have bid more than a mere two hearts at his first turn.What if West started with four trumps?He would have remembered the rule against a defender trying for ruffs when he has extra length in the trump suit and would certainly have led a heart.What does all this mean?Since trumps are apparently going to split nicely, you can guarantee your contract by refusing the trump finesse.Play A-K of spades and then concede a diamond trick to East.You can subsequently shed your heart loser on a good diamond in dummy.If you greedily took the spade finesse.West would take the queen, put his partner on lead with the club ace, and the king and a diamond would set you via a trump promotion.Of course, foolishly finessing the diamond at trick one would give you the same negative result.Finally, West should be censured for his opening lead With a probable trump trick, he should quietly lead his partner's suit.Declarer would then be a little unlucky to lose both the diamond finesse and the trump finesse later, but he would be set in a routine manner.Tuesday, March 3, 1987 ASTRO •GRAPH Bernice Bede Osol cfeur ‘Birthday March 3, 1987 In the year ahead you will become
