legislation that would allow it to hold its own opinion-sampling votes on coastitutional questions Moments later.Marc Lalonde.minister of federal provincial relations, made clear that the* bill is designed primarily as a political weapon against the separatist Parti Québécois government At a news conference, he challenged Premier Rene Le vesque’s Quebec government to adapt its own legislation on referendums in light he federal model The provincial bill, Lalonde said, unduly restricts freedom of association and freedom of speech ” The legislation was immediately denounced by Levesque as “a pre-election ploy.” Speaking to reporters in Montreal.Levesque said Trudeau wanted to wear “the mantle of the savior of Quebec ” At the news conference.Lalonde said the government may never use the legislation The federal bill was introduced as a tool to make sure the Quebec vote on separation was fair Levesque - nothing to apologize for.MONTREAL Premier Rene Levesque praised his government’s performance in economic matters before a predominantly English-speaking audience Monday, saying he had nothing to apologize for in the Parti Québécois government’s 16 months in power Citing in particular the PQ’s new automobile insurance plan, as well as its proposal to take over part of the Quebec asbestos industry, Levesque told about 700 businessmen at a Canadian Club luncheon that “we re not far-out radicals out to destroy initiatives “But we are social democrats, to use the expression which is coined about us, which means very simply doing our best to be and to remain socially

president of the Canadian Labor Congress (CLC).is sticking to his contention that the labor movement should play a powerful role in economic-planning with business and government Although some major unions in the 2.3-million-member congress have laken a hard stand against labor involvement in joint economic planning.Morris urged delegates to the CLC policy convention which opened yesterday to “con tinue the process of change to make the movement a greater influence upon the lives of Canadian workers “I have done what I believed needed to be done to make the CLC a real power in Canada," Morns said in his opening speech to the five-day policy convention “Four years was not long enough, but a good start has been made.” In the leadership elections Thursday, delegates are ex peeled to pick 55-year-old Dennis McDermott, the colorful C anadian director of the United Auto Workers, to succeed Morris McDermott, who does not face a serious challenge in his bid for the top job.said in an interview Sunday it is premature to predict how the congress will change under his leadership \1I ST KAHN SPURS “I don’t have a blueprint, but I can’t do it alone,” he said ‘T have to earn my spurs with my colleagues.” Morris, whose union activity dates back to 1937 when he was a British Columbia logger, urged the labor movement to increase its power “to confront all governments on each and every issue that affects working men and women .” Unions should resist all at tempts to divide workers along linguistic lines and along public and private sector lines “The solidarity we have shown in the past must continue into the future ” The words echoed Morris’s statement on the eve of the convention Sunday, when he told reporters the labor movement should place its emphasis on union solidarity, whatever the outcome of the planned Quebec* referendum on in dependence “To as.the over-riding consideration in any discussion must be the solidarity of the workers of this country, whether it continues as one entity in the future or as two entities.” Morris noted today that the past two years “have been extremely turbulent ones for the labor movement in Canada MORK POLITICAL

change its approach to meet changing times Placement centre for handicapped serves over 300 Business waging "a strike of capital QUEBEC (CP) - Big business in Canada is waging a “strike of capital” against working people to deprive them of hard fought gains in collective bargaining, says Gerry Docquier, Canadian director of the United Steelworkers of America Docquier told a conference organized by the Canadian I^abor Congress Sunday that companies are using “the unemployed in this country as an army to cut working standards now enjoyed by organized workers.” The “game plan” is to use layoffs or to contract out work in order to get around provisions of collective agreements, he said This suggests that “there is a strike of capital being conducted by the corporations in this country It is a strike against equitable taxation, it is a strike against full employment practices, and it is a strike against the health and safety of workers ” POINT TO TAX BREAKS Meanwhile, governments give multinational companies like Inco huge tax breaks to develop foreign holdings.Docquier said, and then do nothing when such companies cut Canadian jobs because their foreign operations are more profitable That was obvious in the case of the Inco layoffs in Sudbury which took effect in February, noted Docquier “They < Inco) felt free to do so because they know it is easier to handle our prime minister and his cabinet, and the premier and government of Ontario, than it is to face down a couple of second-rate dictators in Guatemala and Indonesia “In other words, our governments could be counted on to roll over and play dead when it came time to defend our jobs from being exported by a bunch of international pirates in pursuit of the almighty dollar.” MONTREAL (CP) For five years, Michel de Cesare, a cerebral palsy victim, recorded lectures and transcribed his tapes at home to earn a BA in computer sciences from Concordia University.But after watching most of his classmates find jobs soon after graduating, the 28-vear-old Montrealer received no reply from the 60 employers he wrote to Realizing his physical handicap was the reason he wasn’t being considered for the jobs, de Cesare got mad “I got so angry I decided something had to be done to change that situation,” de Cesare said in a recent in terview “I knew I wasn’t the only handicapped person facing discrimination from employers.” Two years ago, de Cesare GOODYEAR EAGLE A new standard of excellence in radial tire performance! m Now there is a very special Radial Tire available from Goodyear.The Goodyear Eagle with Flexten cord belts and it soon will become the standard by which other radiais are judged.What makes the Eagle Radial so special?In one word it’s "FLEXTEN".Flexten is a Goodyear exclusive tire cord.It’s made from Aramid, a man made fibre that is, pound for pound, stronger than steel.Flexten belts help deliver extra long mileage.Goodyear's experience with this amazing tire cord in other radial tires such as The Ice Radial, Customgard GT Radial and the Pblice Special Radial indicates that the Eagle Radial will deliver exceptionally long mileage and outstanding performance.Highway tests on the American Eagle Radial, forerunner to our Eagle, produced outstanding results.After 45,000 actual miles m J*.the tires still had nearly half their tread remaining.These were controlled tests run on ordinary highways at legal speed limits with non-professional drivers.Tire pressure, alignment and balance w ere carefully maintained and the tires were rotated regularly.The mileage you can expect from Eagle Radiais depends on your driving habits and the care you give your car and tires.Flexten is more flexible than steel and this flexibility contributes to a smooth ride.We know you’ll like the feel of Eagle Radiais on your car.the handling, the braking, the smooth quiet ride and you'll like the long mileage they deliver.Ask vour Goodvear Service Store or Dealer to install a

them “We try to give the people who come here some tools they’ll need to begin integrating into the labor force,” said de Cesare Morning group discussions j help familiarize participants I with a working routine “Many of the people who come here have never worked before and have no I idea what they want to do, so we talk about it together.“Once they've decided what type of work they’d like to

Mr Beaudry said "If it is in the affirmative we should set up a committee to establish the ways and means and I don’t mean spending a million dollars." “We have to set a target date," alderman Claude Breton said “I won’t vote on the issue tonight but we must get the project going one w ay or the other " "I agree we must have a decision of principle but 1 feel tonight is premature," mayor Ray mond said "If the project appears too costly, why attempt to complete it," Mr Barker said "If it is to remain closed, why consider proposals0" "There’s no reason why we have to decide tonight," Mr Sirois said “November’s the time for electioneering," was alder man Armand Beauregard’s comment "The discussion tonight suggests the only common sense on the council belongs to Messrs Barker and Beau dry," Jean-Paul Sirois said Mayor Raymond insisted a resolution last night would be premature as there are still too many intangibles attached to the project at this date Mr Beaudry then pro posed a resolution to study the problems of the centre of town with a view to the reopening of Main Street if it is economically, socially; and environmentally favor able to the council, should be presented at the next regular meeting Grand Ballets tours Quebec The city of Sherbrooke will be among eighi Quebec ciliés visiled in Les Grands Balleis Canadiens’ first lour of the province in several years The dance iroupe will lx* in I he city on April 17 The lime and place of the performance will lx* an nounced at a later date Brieflet SHERBROOKE St Peter’s Guild Casserole Luncheon, Sun , April 9, 12 to 2 p.m Adults $2 50; children $1 25 Beautify your neighbourhood Get oui on the street Take a vi a Ik u.iik .No.k r.*t WANTED TO BUY Coins-Paper-Gold Gold Watches Coin Collection Paying $2.60 on the S1.00 for silver from 1966 down.Price subject to change.Tel: 562-3736 on Lake Massawippi at Ayer's Cliff, Québec fttppiecobe Knn Saturday Night OUR NEW FEAST OF NEPTUNE Hearty Clam Chowder Shrimp Thermidor Snow Crab Claws Fresh Gaspe Salmon Stuffed Bouchées of Shrimp Mussles Marinière Marinated Halibut Roast Beef au Jus Salad Greens and Many Garnishes French Pastry Coffee Price: Only $11.50 Hours.6.30 9:00 p.m.Dinner Dancing to Rolland Breton SUNDAY CHAMPAGNE BRUNCH A perfect way to start your most relaxing day!

those factors, as Dr Burns very correctly points out, were in many ways responsible for the current healthy state of Quebec nationalism In other words, history has survived very well in Que bec, even if the rest of this nation is hell-bent on building itself into a megopolis without a past Indeed, history and culture in Quebec seem to have thrived on the very adversity Dr.Burns is referring to So let’s forget about all this collective guilt and get about the business of giving next century’s historians something to w rite about There should be no lack of material; the Townships have become one of the key battlegrounds in the federal provincial war for control As an instrument of written history, our editorial columns should be full of comment, reaction and debate; we look at the letters columns of the French papers and they ’re jammed w ith daily manifesta tions of a vigorous, active culture We’re Quebecers, too We may be assimilated; that’s for the future to decide We may survive as a culture; that depends on how badly we w ant to and how many of us there are Like the Cree and the Inuit, we stand to go the way of the vanished Hurons if we don’t take active steps to keep our own cultural development alive In Toronto, there is an Italian community w hich thrives without any government help whatsoever, with its own newspapers, radio programs, even community television In many Canadian cities.French-speaking Quebecers have social clubs and regular get-togethers w hich depend entirely on the efforts of those involved Their only secret is that they consider themselves communities in their own right, and until Townshippers are ready to consider themselves that way, there’s little future for anything that could be considered an ongoing, vital Townships culture so let’s forget about blaming the Quebec government for the exodus of our best trained people It’s not their fault that English speaking Quebecers never bothered to learn French Instead, let’s think Townships - culture and history J AMES DIM l K?!

of the province’s population—sells no commercials and depends on the provincial government for its current budget of $22 6 million IMPACT NOT LOST The political impact of television is not lost on

appears on television regularly on his own monthly half-hour show paid for by the Parti Québécois on the private Tele-Métropole network However, the problem of government interference with Radio-Quebec programming appears to have been a greater problem with the former Liberal government Labonte recounted with relish an incident in which Denis Hardy.Liberal communications minister before the Parti Québécois took power in 1976, once told him that the network’s shows were biased Hardy had complained that a political organizer had seen a Radio-Quebec show which contained an interview with veteran Quebec nationalist Pierre Bourgault “I told Hardv that I would IdNAIO "THERE’S SOMEONE HERE TO SEE YOU FROM THE GUINNESS BOOK OF WORLD RECORDS" ••y.y.y.v.v.y.y.v.v.v.Jack Anderson’s Washington Merry-Go-Round Carter risks “political neck’’ by Jack Anderson and Les Whitten WASHINGTON - At considerable risk to his political neck.President Carter hopes to limit the preferential treatment veterans receive in applying for government jobs Aides have persuaded the president that veterans priority has b€»en squeezing out women and minorities from federal employ ment The proposed reduction in veterans benefits, of course, has brought an al mighty howl from the powerful veter ans lobby But a confidential White House memo, which recently reached the president’s desk, convinced him that giving job preferences to ex-servicemen, some of whom left the military decades ago, is blocking nearly everyone else from the federal payroll By law, the memo explained, vet erans are given a five-point bonus on the Civil Service test scores on the theory that “those who served in times of war deserve special assistance in readjusting to civilian life ” In reality, even those veterans w ho served during peacetime are granted a “lifetime benefit”.Consequently, the memo declared, veterans “block the top of most Civil Service registers This often creates severe problems for non veteran but qualified candidates, especially women.” In Dallas, for example, a woman who scored 100 on an air traffic controller’s test was ranked 147th behind veterans w ith preference If veterans got no spe cial break, she would have ranked seventh A female lawyer in Washington recently applied for a civilian job with the Defense Department Although she had more experience than most of the male prospects, her application was promptly returned She was told she couldn’t be considered w ithout veterans preference “In some areas, such as San Diego.” the White House memo said, “retired military personnel are often the only individuals eligible for federal employment.” There are about 140,(XX) such “double dippers” retired servicemen who are collecting a military pension in addition to their government salaries in the federal bureaucracy Yet they get first dibs on government jobs, even if they left the military before World Warll The current law also hampers efforts to streamline the government.Carter was advised.When a military base is closed, for example, “the veterans preference is absolute and allows him to bump’ non veterans, including those with greater seniority,” the memo explained Many officials avoid or dering needed cutbacks, therefore, “because of the adverse impact on equal opportunity and affirmative action gains.” The president has recommended that veterans, who now comprise half the federal work force, be given preference for only 10 years after discharge This would help Vietnam vet erans and would accomplish the origin al purpose of the law by limiting assist ance to the period of adjustment An exception would be made for disabled veterans, who would retain a lifetime job advantage Another confidential briefing pa per suggested ways for the president to sell the proposal and thwart the carping, which has already Ix*gun on Capitol Hill “From some quarters we are beginning to receive the expected cri ticism on our proposed changes,” the document stated “Somehow we do not seem to lx* getting across the fact that our proposals help those veter ans groups that need it the most, the disabled veteran and the Vietnam veteran ” Footnote: A spokesman for the Vet erans of Foreign Wars told my asso ciate Howie Kurtz (hat “the White House is using veterans preference as a scapegoat They haven’t been getting enough women and minorities in government, so they’ve got to blame it on something.” He added that he expects Congress to kill the proposal Boh Cool: Agriculture Secretary Bob Bergland has been on the hot seat since the nation’s farmers swarmed into Washington and began to demonstrate for higher crop prices But he has been unflappable under the pressure.Bergland deftly handled one group of irate farmers, for example, who stormed into his department and occupied a room on St Patrick’s day When Bergland confronted the farmers face to face,one hulking man angrily de manded answers of the Agriculture secretary Bergland noticed that the farmer was chewing a pinch of snuff He cooly requested some of the powder for him self and deposited it between his cheek and gum The tension suddenly broke and the previously unruly crowd event ually dispersed Philippine Furor: Philippine Pre sident Ferdinand Marcos is dealing harshly with those who stand in the way of a nuclear reactor his government is building in a major earthquake zone and near tw o volcanoes.According to correspondence from the Philippine Atomic Energy (’ommis-sion to the International Atomic Energy Agency, the government in Manila has snatched away private land from Filip ino citizens to make room for the U S financed reactor Such actions, one let ter states, have “alienated affected residents and cast doubts upon the oh jectives of the government The Marcos government has also used heavy handed tactics against those who oppose the plant Sixty sol diers.for example, were dispatched to monitor one public “hearing” on the issue When a minister raised questions about air pollution, the military auth orities hauled him from the meeting threatened him with arrest and started an investigation of his activities listen to him if he watched Radio-Quebec’s shows for a month and could talk about 10or 12shows.” Labonte said with a smile of «satisfaction WOULD LOSE’ Network support for Quebec independence “would be the best way for us to lose all credibility,” Labonte said Programs concerning the referendum will be aimed at “informing people of the situation, of what is at stake so that when they vote they will know what it means,” he said Of course.Labonte said, it is possible that partisan comments can be slipped nto the occasional show, depending on the producer or the host “This is part of the game.” he added with a smile “Some people say they are afraid of government interference.hut you can reassure them that as long as I’m here- along with the board of directors we have— this will not happen.” But for now, Radio-Quebec’s stations are transmitting only a test pattern The network suspended operations March 20 as a result of a labor dispute with one of the unions representing Radio-Quebec employees Another key Radio-Quebec official, program director Claude Sylvestre, confirmed that the Parti Québécois government has shown no signs of moving to control the network “I understand why the public would ask such a question,” said Sylvestre, who was a producer for 20 years at Radio-Canada “But we are not in an Eastern-bloc country.” “We don’t want to serve anybody’s politics.” Letters Calamity Jane Editor: Having heard a man from Africa, who has been studying the situation here in Quebec, he makes more sense than anyone I’ve heard He stated the trouble here is tribalism, not nationalism Do you

yards when hunger has forced them into the open Next in response to the first letter about extra powerful guns, let it be known that a good many of the good deer calibers are outlawed because of misinformed people who w rite game laws For instance, tor years deer were shot with guns such as the 38-55 or 32-40 or 303 savage calibers These guns are now out lawed for deer hunting in Quebec, however they manage to kill deer them in the other provinces of Canada and also the full able not deer still with USA Maybe, we have a super breed of deer Many may remember the humane cattle killer that used a 22 cartridge to kill cows and pigs If a properly placed 22 bullet will kill animals that weigh up to a thousand pounds or more, it seems unlikely that for deer a caliber that is five or ten times stronger will not do.Now for the right of people to hunt and kill deer The Bible says animals were put on this earth for the killing to obtain food and clothing It does not say anything about discontinuing this in 1978 and going to vegetables and synthetics Deer hunters are proud of their trophy and show it by mounting it on their vehicles Many hunters have hunted a lifetime without being able to get a deer Then also in case these same persons were to cheek the game laws they would see you are obliged to have any deer you transported in plain sight In ending l would like to say
