Vandalism Shocks

Dear Sir:

On Oct. 17 of this year, the
Union of Spiritual Communities
of Christ Union of Youth

, Organization, under the plan-

ning of the Union. of Youth
Council, organized a group visit
tothe place near Farron, where
our highly respected Douk-
hobor leader, Peter Lordly

Verigin, was killed in a train’

explosion on October 29, 1924.

Both Grand Forks. and
Kootenay youth participated in
this event. Upon arrival at the
scene, we were shocked to find
that the memorial sheaf of
wheat erected at the spot
where he died (the sheaf being
remnants-of the tomb which
was blown up at Brilliant a
number” of years” back)’ was
shattered and smeared with
Ted paint.

In addition, the ground and
some rocks were also painted
red and various plaques were
erected at the scene. These
plaques accused the USCC of
being communist agents of the
U.S.S.R, and. included other
false accusations.

‘The basic reaction of the
youth that saw this, was one of
shock. In addition, we found
that many rocks along the
highway’ near the vicinity of
Paulson Bridge between Grand
Forks and Castlegar were
defaced by paint, also falsely
accusing us of being communist
agents and the Brilliant
Cultural Centre as being the
base for “KGB”.

The Brilliant Cultural
Centre is an honest effort by
the members of the Union of
Spiritual Communities of Christ
to fill the need for such a centre
in the Kootenay area, for
various cultural activities
throughout the year.

The same hate propaganda
is evidenced in the various hate
literature which we receive or
we hear of that is being dis-
tributed by someone. Again, we
say that the accusations are
false. The destruction of the

Castlegar-Robson

memorial, and the hate litera-
ture are deplorable acts of
misguided people.

We have witnessed and
experienced such violence and
propaganda directed against us
during our life in Canada,
namely almost 77 years. During
this time, we have seen much of
our property destroyed and our
people subjected to the mental
strains accompanying these
events for three-quarters of a
century.

If such acts are claimed
under the Doukhobor name, we
wish to state that terrorism and
violence or any act of hate—
verbal, written or physical, are

Should Not Restrict
‘Log and Chip Exports

The Royal Commission re-
‘port on forest resources says
encoyraging domestic secon-
dary manufacturing by re-
stricting exports of logs and
chips reflects a misunder-
standing of the full impact of
such policies on the provinelal
economy.

Control of exports of forest
products is shared between the
federal and provincial govern:
ments with Ottawa having con-
stitutional jurisdiction over in-
ternational trade and the pro-
vince having authority over
natural resources.

Both governments restrict
exports of logs, pulp chips and
other mill residuals, to promote
domestic manufacturing.

“I do not mean to imply
that manufacturing in the pro-
vince should not be encour-
aged,” says commissioner Dr.
Peter Pearse, a University of
British Columbia economist.

» “However, I am gravely con-

cerned that an attempt to do
this by restricting the market
for intermediate products
which are themselves the pro-
ducts of domestic industry is
misdirected and contrary to a

relax export restrictions by re-
moving some of their arbitrary
and inequitable features,

‘He says {éderal and pro-
vinelal export permits are too
cumbersome and proposes in-
creased reliance on the export
levy.

“The timber tax affords a *
flexible and consistent device
for providing whatever degree

‘of protection to domestic manu-
facturers the government con-
sliders desirable, and enables
the Crown to appropriate some
of the gains from export
privileges," the report says,

Dr. Pearse proposes that
the permit system no longer be
used to ration exports and that
the timber tax be modified to
give sufficient price protection
to domestic manufacturing to
prevent serious disruption in
their raw material supplies,

He says this could be'done
through changing the timber
tax from fixed dollar levies toa
single percentage rate ‘for logs
and another for chips. The per-
mit system would be retained
for the immediate future but

fe

constructive strat-
egy.”

In his report released last
Wednesday, Dr. Pearse says
that because any sudden re-
moval of export controls would
cause problems’ for some com-
panies, he proposed to partly

policies. a
