If only we had these types of resources at work on our behalf to guide and direct us through this present life.

And no matter how sophisticated the guidance sys- tems, they do not have the capacity to go beyond the pro- grammed facts or to interpret the future. We need spiritual guide who will guide us into all truth through the Holy Spirit. When you trust with all your heart in Jesus to save, you receive the Holy Spirit. He will be your guid system in this for every type of circumstance as well as into the future in order to reach our destination in life. There is an infallible guid- life and into the next.

Causeway officially opens NEWS BRIEF Johnston rejects tradition By DONNA ZUBER Staff Writer Premier Rita Johnston dismissed the NDP’s traditional strength in the Rossland-Trail riding during her visit to the West Kootenay on Monday. “That’s coming to an end,” she said, referring to NDP domination of the riding during the past 19 years. She said surging local interest in the Social Credit leadership campaign points to a new era of Social Credit strength. “They've got a good candidate run- ning there, so the fact that-the pre- sent NDP candidate (Chris D’Arcy) is no longer in the running, it gives us a leg up.” Socred candidate Walter Siemens and NDP candidate Ed Conroy will contend for the Rossland-Trail seat in the election which must be called this year. Johnston met with the Castlegar News at the airport Monday before leaving the area for Kamloops. She had spent most of the day meeting local delegates in Nelson and Trail, off her list a few more of the 2,000 delegates she intends to meet before the leadership convention July 18, 19 and 20 in Vancouver. She said the local delegates she met with — about 20 at each meeting — are most concerned about party race. pared to back her in the leadership “(But) I think it’s important to meet with them and let them meet with me.

Get through this convention and get orga- nized for the main campaign. There are always individual local issues, but that seems to be first and foremost in their minds. Unity of the party and taxes.” And despite the “warm feeling” she said she got from the local meetings, she has “no way of knowing” how many of those delegates are now pre- leadership contender. the legislature,” she said. ” has worked both for and against her as a “It was a bit of a handicap while we were in session because I felt my obligation was to be in Victoria and in “But since we’ve been out on the campaign trail, the momentum of my campaign has really risen and I feel very good about the type of comment and support that has been indicated me since we've been out travelling.” RITA JOHNSTON ..

The spill, which continued for four days, was caused by a faulty pump in the primary sewage treatment system that serves Trail, Rossland and Warfield The waste overflowed and went into the river through a manhole. It was rapidly diluted and Washington officialg*$aid the health threat was minimal. But they were miffed that they were not promptly notified. “Ht it's an emergency . . . . at least.they should tell people,” said Roger Ray of the Washington ecology department. The spill began about midnight last Sunday and millions of litres of raw sewage went into the Columbia until the pumping station was repaired on Thursday. Instead of calling a 24-hour Provincial Emergency Program spill number, an engineer in Trail waited until the regional Environment Ministry office in Nelson opened on Tuesday after the Canada Day weekend.

In an interview with the Castie- gar News, Siemens said Cominco has been suffering for several years from the water licence tax it pays on its self-generated power. In effect, the taxes offset the sav- ings of generating its own power. “But the company counts on those ngs to remain itive after paying costs, particularly freight, that similar coastal operations don’t bear, he said. “The government will say ‘yes we've recognized it and frozen the water rates.’ So I'm sure they wouldn’t say nothing has happened, (but) Cominco would say that’s not- please see COMINCO page A3 waste permits. “It formalizes in a legal docu- ment stuff we told the public as well as the (Celgar Expansion Review) panel that we intended to do,” said Jim Browne, general manager of the mill. The permits — which limit the amount of refuse, effluent and air emissions that can be released into the environment during mill operations — are a temporary measure until the expansion pro- ject is over, a spokesman from, the Environment Ministry said. “The permits have been amend- ed to lay out what the company must do between now and the start-up of the new facility between now and the middle of - light ‘93,” regional waste manager Jim McLaren said from the ministry’s office in Nelson. “That provides the rules for the operation of all those discharges and monitoring programs between now and then,” he added. The amendments, effective” June 28, are the first of a three- phase amendment process. The first phase, which applies now, relates to operations during construction. The second phase applies to the first year of opera- tions at the new mill; and the final phase will be imposed at the end of that first year, McLaren said. “During that one-year the requirements are substantially more restrictive than they are at present,” he said. “After that one year start-up period the permit again becomes more stringent to reflect what was referred to in the public (hearings) as the best avail- able controlled technology. please see CELGAR page A3 SA = Ti i elena ON hn nD Fu 3 NE na mS nt SON ES STE SS MR
