Strong protests against the
curtailment of ferry service were
voiced last night at the regular
meeting of the Castlegar and
District Chamber of Commerce
in the Twin Rivers Hall,

Robson resident Art Ander-
son called the curtailment “a
deplorable mess .... an ill-timed
Temoval that was either too late
or too early.”

He took an especially strong
stand against the fact that the
department of public works chose
a period that included the May
19 weekend to put a smaller and
slower ferry into operation.

Chamber president Cyril

Qnions noted the ferry was
supposed to have ; Nese taken

from UBC to spend the summer
with his parents Mr. and Mrs, J.
Kavic.

From Kaslo, Mrs, J. Flam-
ank and her four children arrived
last Thursday to spend several
days with her parents Mr. and
Mrs, J. Wiig.

On Mother's Day, a family
dinner was enjoyed at the home
of Mr. and Mrs, Martin Bale of
Kinnaird, when four daughters
and their families gathered to
honor Mr, and Mrs, Wiig.

Vancouver, formerly of Oasis,
was among those present,

Mr. and Mrs. Frank Wood-

Mrs, G, W. Anderson left
this morning for Vancouver to at-
‘tend a meeting of the Society
for Handicapped Children, as the
delegate from the local group.

Mr. and Mrs. D. Phelps of
Salmon Arm were the recent
guests of Mr. and Mrs. -C. S,

Phelps.

off in

a Iittle humor into the situation
. by saying his wife wouldn't

believe him a few nights ago

when he spent 234 hours in

the ferry lineup going across

and returning from Robson.

Nick Oglow said that al-
though. the Trail. Times and
Nelson news “enjoy some circu-
lation in this area,” notices of
ferry changes should be publish-
ed in the Castlegar News.

Mr. Onions agreed with him,
saying, “not everyone in’ this
district gets both of those papers
or either of them.” He felt notic-
es should be published “in the
local paper.”

Chamber members decided
to send a letter to P. B. Mac-
Carthy, district i to show

just as well if they stayed away
another week or so” a5 some
Castlegar streets aren't ready
for paving yet and the public
works department will do them
when they are here.

Mr, Brookes told the Cham-
ber he hasn't “been honored
with a reply” from the minister
of highways as to the date for
the completion of the Blueberry-
Paulson Highway.

No action was taken on a
suggestion by Art Anderson
that the Chamber sponsor a
Clean-Up Week, Mr. Anderson
said such a week could be used
for cleaning main streets, private
yards and boulevards.

Mr. Anderson and Robert
Hunter told Chamber of Com-
merce members of what they
termed job discrimination in the
Alberta oilfields: The secretary
was instructed to write a letter
to the Canadian Chamber of
Commerce informing them of
discrimination in favor of Ameri-
cans over Canadians in the Al-
berta oilfields.

The business and industry
committee was instructed by the
Chamber to “follow up” news-
paper reports of a 60-foot dam
to be built at Castlegar.

Congratulations were ex-
tended to W. T. Waldie by Mr.
Onions, Mr. Waldie was made a

ot it ifthe Chamber would

A committee was named to
look into methods of raising the
Chamber’s share of the budget.
Mr. Shkwarok suggested that the
Chamber “utilize school girls
during the summer to staff the
booth.” E, M. McGauley thanked
Mr. Shkwarok for what he
termed “a tremendous offer.’

Dennis Brookes, chairman of
the roads and bridges commit-
tee, said the district engineer,
Mr. MacCarthy, has’ a boxcar
of tar on order for paving the
approaches to the overhead
bridge.

Mr. Oglow suggested that

KRC Grants Fall Fair Board $600

Grants totalling $1785 were
approved by directors of the Kin-
naird Robson Castlegar Welfare
Society at their regular meeting
Tuesday in the Legion Hall.

The Kiwanis Club received
$75 to cover expenses of spon-
soring the Red Cross Blood Don-
or Clinic which is scheduled to be
held here June 11.

The Traii Branch of the Can-
adian Red Cross received $300

received last year. _

‘Fair Board does a good job and
the great amount of work they
do is entirely voluntary —
therefore they decided the
amount could be approved.

. A request for a $250 grant
for the. Kinnaird Athletic As-
sociation was approved. An in-
teresting discusion followed on
final disposition of this grant.

“Director Ernie Fitzpatrick, on

behalf of the KAA, explained
the money is earmarked for the
Little League Ball Teams, which
he felt were most worthwhile
projects. Abouit 100 boys
participate in the leagues and
they are now beginning to ac-
cumulate a fair amount of equip-
ment to work with. Mr. Fitz-
patrick saw a drop in the’ re-
quest for funds in future years.

The meeting heard reports by

secretary-treasurer Alec Gray

and director John Dunlop on the
recent meeting with District Wel-
fare Organizations in Trail.

A number of pertinent sub-
jects had been discussed at the
meet, Mr. Gray said, one of
the topics being how the na-
tional groups arrive at their

* basic budget figures for grants,
Some feel too much money is
going to national groups in-
stead. of to local branches of
the organizations concerned.

No definite conclusion was

the canvass itself for these spec-
ific cases.

The matero foutside or-
ganizations conducting.a drive
for funds was another issue, since
the general public does not ap-
preciate being canvassed for con-
tributions if they are already
members of, and contributing to,
a Welfare group. -

Policy usually followed here
is to only allow outsiders in
to carry ‘on such canvasses if
the Wefare group cannot han-
dle the needs of the Particular

muneration for. the canvassers is
a set amount, rather than a rate
per contribution os, is the cust-
om here,

Following the report, Mr.
Gray presented the April finan-
cial statement which was approv-
ed and adopted by,the meeting.

A report was presented by
Walter Jacobson on his repre-
senting the KRC at the recent
dinner given by the British and
Foreign Bible Society. Mr, Ja-
cobson stated in his opinion the
Society is doing a good job of

tures in all parts of the world.

learned that Nelson’: Community
