Claman said U.S. sales of bottled water increased 100 per cent between 1979 and 1982 and continue to grow. The deterioration of local water supplies in many areas and innovative marketing, particularly by Perrier of France, are some of the rea- sons for the growth, he said.

Fear, disgust, sadness, a sense of loss — some or all of these emotions, and probably many more, are felt by those of even the strongest faith or resolve when death is present. Unfortunately, every one of us is running on a finite clock and having to deal with an impending death — whether one’s own or that of a loved one — is inevitable is satisfactory to them. involvement. members,” Fellows says. by hospital people.” desease. Hospice neither hastens nor postpones death. “Hospice exists in the hope and belief that through appropriate care and the promotion of caring community sensitive to their needs, patients and families may be free to attain a degree of mental and spiritual preparation that “The hospice movement is an attempt to return the dying patient to being in control.” Now hospice care is coming to Castlegar. Several volunteers have formed a steering commit- tee to establish a hospice society here in town. Karen Fellows, a Castlegar Hospital nurse who has been actively involved in forming the society, says she hopes hospice in Castlegar will have strong community “Hopefully the society will be run by community “We don't want this to be run She says hospice volunteers would go to the homes of dying patients, find out their needs and the needs of FOR CASTLEGAR Moore supports unit expansion By SIMON BIRCH Moore added that the unit is also in a Staff Writer good location because it is close to the ‘The Ministry of Health's decision to hospital. expand the Céntral Kootenay Health Ina interview T! of the year.

Worried about the threat of a grow- ing U.S. crackdown on imports of Can- adian lumber, fish, crops and other goods, western and Atlantic premiers say they want Ottawa to get moving on a plan to soften U.S. protectionism. But Ontario leaders, as guardians of a manufacturing base they say benefits all C: i are equally concerned about losing some of the tariffs, Investigator saw cracks on wall TOKYO (AP-CP) — A top Japanese government investigator said Saturday he saw numerous cracks on the rear pressure wall of the Japan Air Lines jumbo jetliner when he ined the wreckage the day after the Boeing 747 crashed, killing 520 people. However, he said further investiga- tion is needed to determine whether the impact of the crash created the cracks in the 747, and would not say whether they could have caused the bulkhead to burst, sending the plane out of control. full-scale U.S. invasion. “The whole argument over trade has been filled with a lot of rhetoric but no specifics,” said Hershell Liberal Premier David Peterson. “We intend to make a strong case against ponsible for the construction and . incentives and other measures that / protect the Canadian market from a - free | Ezrin, principal secretary to Ontario. he the facility but the BCBC will sat a maintenance fee.

The decision to relocate the health unit's administrative staff is the result of the amalgamation of the Selkirk Health Unit in Nelson and the West Kootenay Helath Unit in Trail into the Central Kootenal Health Unit. The am- algamation took place earlier this year. Rogers said that the size of the staff had been reduced through attrition and that Monty Arnott had been acting as the head of both units. All that was left was to decide where to locate the head office, Rogers said. In a letter to Lakes, health minister Nielsen said “Castlegar was chosen as the administrative centre for the health unit after careful consideration of the advantages and disadvantages of the various sites under reivew (in Trail, Castlegar and Nelson).” ° The Trail facility will continue as a health services centre. “They're not going to lose their facility,” Moore said. “There will be no downgrading of services.” Rogers added that “it’s not as if a whole bunch of people are going to leave Trail.” Premiers to discuss free trade issue lomatic kind of fellow,” complained re- cently that his Tory counterparts in Ottawa are dragging their feet in re- placing the grant system that spurred offshore petroleum drilling. .

Saskatchewan Premier Grant Devine hopes to make room for talks on , agriculture. With Prairie famrers reeling from a drought, Devine wants other premiers to join in the development of a national program to protect producers. Trade, however, promises to become the preoccupation. With agitation against Canadian im- ports growing in the United States, the issue has become so important to premiers that seven of them recently flocked to a national governors’ con- ference in Idaho to try to cool U.S. hostility.

Since then, some strains have intruded between the federal Tories and the provinces, including some of the six’ Tory pre- miers.
