THE BUSINESS DIRECTORY Spy trial to begin Jan. 30 OTTAWA (CP) — The trial of a former RCMP officer accused of selling secrets to the Soviet Union 25 years ago is scheduled to begin Jan June 26, 1985 Accounting 20 in Ontario Sup Court and is expected to last two weeks. Morrison was charged two years ago with violating the Official Secrets Act after he identified him- self as Long Knife, the free- spending corporal who tried to pay off his debts by selling information about a double agent in Montreal. During his preliminary hearing in 1984, Morrison's lawyers persuaded a provin- cial court judge the charges violated constitutional guar- antees of a trial within a reasonable period of time. The charges were stayed. But the decision was over- turned by the Ontario Su- preme Court and the Ontario Court of Appeal, both of which ruled the Charter of Rights protects accused per- sons from a long delay be- tween the time charges are laid and the case reaches court — not a long delay be- fore chares are laid. Long Knife's activities in the RCMP’s fledgling sec- urity unit in the 1950s were disclosed in the book For Services Rendered by author and journalist John Sawat- sky. Stress female hazard OTTAWA (CP) — Stress is fast becoming the top job hazard for women, says the Canadian Union of Public Employees. While men also endure stress at work, women suffer more because of the type of work they do and the fact that many must cope with what amounts toa second job at home, argues the 300,000- member union. “As is well known in Can- ada, the majority of working women are concentrated in low-paid, low-control, low status jobs. This fact alone marks women as prime tar- gets for negative stress.” When combined with daily homemaking duties, “the dual role can often create severe conflict, guilt feelings, frustration, anxiety — and a hazardous level of stress,” CUPE says. Quoting a variety of stud ies and analyses, the union cites assembly line work, waitressing, sewing machine operation, and jobs as a Brian L.

ALL SUFFER A study by 9 to 5, the Na tional Association of Working Women in the United States, found women holding menial jobs suffered as much or more stress as women in top managerial jobs, CUPE re- ports. “As could be expected, women with top managerial responsibilities reported a lot of stress. But the survey did not in ite a prevalence of stress symptoms and stress- related diseases among top female managers. ‘The inference is that power-generated stress is not the stress that takes the toll on health. It is the ab sence of decision-making power, a lack of control over the way things are that leads to a high level of negative stress.” CUPE says the study rein forced what many involved with “women’s work” already know.

The move followed five weeks of intense pressure from opposition parties and senior citizens. Finance Minister Michael Wilson announced Thursday in the Commons the government would restore full inflation indexing of pensions. The lost revenue will be replaced by a six month extension of the corporate sur tax, which has previously been sched uled to run 12 months starting Monday, and a one-cent-a-litre increase in the excise tax on gasoline, to take effect Jan. 1, 1987. Brisco said he received about 100 posteards, 30 letters and “a large number of phone calls” from West Kootenay residents protesting the proposed deindexing of pensions. He said he was also expecting to receive petitions protesting the move from Cominco retirees and members of United Steelworkers of America Local 480. Brisco said previous news media reports saying that he supported deindexing as being necessary to reduce the national deficit, were inaceurate. Before Mulroney decided to drop deindexing, “I spoke on the matter in national caucus and expressed my very serious reservations about the (de indexation) program,” Brisco main tained Being “aware of the economic cir cumstances of this area, I could cer tainly see the hardship,” he said MP says Tories didn't retreat BOB BRISCO responsible By CasNews Staff Construction on a 10-unit senior citi- zens’ housing complex in Castlegar is planned for fall, following the an- nouncement of a $73,750 provincial grant towards costs this week. The Doukhobor Benevolent Society will use the funds to build the 10 self-contained units on land to be pur- chased on the corner of 2nd St. ana llth Ave. The provincial government will buy the land and lease it to the society, and the federal government will provide an interest reduction grant to assist the society with mortgage payments, ac- cording to a release from the Ministry of Lands, Parks and Housing. “It'll be a mortgage project and the rent from the occupants will go to cover the cost of the mortgage and upkeep of the premises,” Jim Laktin, chairman of the society's building com- mittee, said Friday. UIC RULING PPWC By ADRIAN CHAMBERLAIN Staff Writer Westar Timber's Celgar pulp work: ers have voted not to appeal a May 10 decision which disallowed them $513,000 in unemployment insurance benefits during a 10-week lockout last year. Members of the Pulp, Paper and Woodworkers of Canada Local 1 voted by about 60 per cent to reject the proposal to appeal, said Local 1 president Mike Babaeff Thursday. Babaeff said the workers voted as they came on their shifts last week from June 17-21. “There was a good turnout for the polls” from the 270- member local, he added During the two-day appeal which Laktin said the society hasn't de- termined the full cost of the project, adding that further planning needs to be completed. But the society hopes to complete the project by spring. “It’s a little rough right now,” he said. “We're hoping more will happen once we meet with officials from Lands, Parks and Housing.” A provincial government co-ordin- ator will help organize this and two similar projects in the Kootenay- Boundary region which have also re- ceived funding, Laktin said. ernment funding was withheld during lean economic times, only to be revived this spring when the society learned grants were again available. Laktin says it’s been a “mad scram- ble” to reorganize the project since then. The benevolent society modelled this project on a similar 28-unit seniors’ housing complex the society built in Grand Forks with provincial funding. “It's a very successful project,” said Laktin. “It's filled to capacity.” The apartments will be handicapped people, as well as seniors. The rent will be a maximum of 30 per cent of the resident's income, or the going rental rate, Laktin said. The project has been in the works for five years. Three years ago plans were drawn up for an originally planned 20-unit complex. But Laktin says the plan was shelved while provincial gov- to ‘The Doukhob lent Society has members throughout the Koot- enays. ‘A $100,000 provincial grant was also announced last week for a seniors’ housing complex in New Denver. The grant goes to the New Denver- Silverton and Area Seniors’ Housing Society to build 10 self-contained units on land owned by the society. won't appeal took place March 19 and May 9, the PPWC asked for UIC benefits mainly on the grounds that union members were willing to work, but the company shut down its mill to adjust pulp inven- tories and favorably influence market conditions. However, a board of referees dis- agreed that the company wanted to shut down, noting that a labor dispute existed between the pulp workers and Westar Timber during the lockout over a new collective agreement — the old one having expired June 30, 1983. Commenting on the decision not to appeal, Babaeff said: “I guess people figured we would have a hard time proving we weren't in a labor dispute.” Babaeff, an instrument mechanic at Celgar, said discussions at two special meetings on the subject of appeal — one with general membership and another with the local executive — indicated that opinions were mixed. But the final decision surprised Babaeff. “I got the impression we might be going for (the appeal),” he said. “It sounded like most of the people were for it.” If the three-member board of ref. erees had decided the pulp workers were locked out by the company and had awarded them benefits, it could have ished a precedent, i the entire labor movement by provid ing locked out workers with benefits. Board supports farmers By CasNews Staff The Central Kootenay Regional Dis- trict board wants Environment Minis ter Austin Pelton to resolve farmers’ concerns about the proposed Inonoak. lin Creek fish ladder before any work on the ladder proceeds. However, the board still supports the proposed $1.5 million ladder, called the “key” to restoring sport fishing on the Lower Arrow Lake. The board's move followed a pres entation by two representatives of the Inonoaklin Watershed Association “We're not opposed to the improve ment of the fishery on the Arrow Lake,” said Dave Bilinski, a farmer in the Inonoaklin Valley. But Bilinski said his association is opposed to the Fisheries Branch proceeding with the ladder without input from local farmers He outlined a number of the asso ciation’s concerns which he says have not been addressed, including e@ whether the creek can support both the ladder and irrigation @ the closure of the stream to local residents who use it for fishing and swimming @ the 500 tons of decaying fish that could result from the Kokanee spawn ing. Bilinski also complained that a re gional district letter earlier this year supporting the fishway was “very upsetting” in light of the farmers concerns. He asked the board to withdraw the earlier letter of support until the Fisheries Branch has addressed the farmers’ questions. withdraw its support for the ladder. Ditector John Anderson pointed out that the earlier letter gave only qual ified support “It’s not a true letter of support,” he said, pointing out the letter asked Pelton to quickly resolve any problems and proceed with the fish ladder. Ald. Albert Calderbank, repres enting the City of Castlegar, agreed. Calderbank said the city is hesitant to withdraw support for the ladder because it's taken the Fisheries Branch 15 years to get the project going. The city’s position hasn't changed despite the problems between the farmers and Fisheries Branch, said Calderbank. “We feel the Lower Arrow Lake is not getting the fish it should get.” He also pointed out that a petition recently circulated in Castlegar did not oppose the farmers, but asked that the ministry “sort this out quickly.” Area J director Martin Vanderpol advised that the letter “stipulate quite clearly that we do not want the Inonoaklin farmers being made the vietims.” BECOME By CasNews Staff than 100 immigrants of nine nationalities will be sworn in as new Canadians om Canada Day at Stanley Humphries Senior Secon dary School.
