But in a separate letter to Montana Senator Max Baucus, U.S. Trade Representative Carla Hills said she warned Canada that retaliation would follow a“*diversion from normal pat terns of trade."” “Simply put, ouf message was that if we see a diversion from normal pat terns of trade, such that imports of this product increase significantly during this period, we will take action to remedy the situation,” Hills said in the Baucus letter, made public Tuesday Last month, the administration lowered the tariff on tongued, grooved and edgeworked plywood — about a third of the U.S, market — to eight per cent from 20 per cent The measure was a technical change and didn’t affect an earlier U.S. decision to suspend scheduled tariffs cuts under free trade on other Canadian plywood until Ouawa has opened up its market to American plywood. U.S. legislators wood producing states in the Pacifie North west warned the tariff cuts would from Cominco worker honored Bob Kerby, development superin tendent at Cominco’s - metallurgical operations, was recently presented with the prestigious Sherritt hydrometallurgy award aof the Metallurgical Society of the Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy Kerby received the award for his numerous contributions to the com mercial recovery of metallic zinc and lead from aqueous systems Kerby was born-and-educated in B.C., obtaining a bachelor of science degree in chemistry at the University of British Columbia, followed by a master of science and doctorate in metallurgical engineering at Queen's University in Kingston, Ont., a Cominco news release says.

Kerby is the 12th recipient of the award. Okanagan logger touts selective logging . By ROB MUNRO The pinhead-sized insect bores into the pine tree’s Kelowna Courier KELOWNA (CP) — Jeff Smoody has been logging for 19 years, but he doesn’t believe in cutting down everything in sight “This is my back yard," Smoody says as he stands in the middle of his operation. ‘I want to see the best done with it as wecan.”” Smoody is one of the few loggers in the Okanagan Valley to practise selective logging, cutting only a few mature trees in an area at any one time. The rest are left to provide cover for seedlings and younger trees. A walk through Smoody’s work area shows quite a mess of trees and brush littering the ground. it’s still an aesthetic improvement over clearcut blocks — often described-as-moonscapes — where everything is cut. Environmental groups are cam- paigning vociferously against clearcut logging, saying it wastes wood and leads to soil erosion The B.C. forestry industry has responded with an extensive ad campaign saying clearcutting mimics natural occurrences such as forest fires that pave the way for new growth, and care is taken to reduce the ~ chances of erosion James Kimmins, a forestry professor at the Univer- sity of British Columbia, says trees such as Douglas fir, which grow well in the cool, humid Coast area, need open areas to grow so ‘‘clearcutting makes ecological sense — but the sizeand appearance must be changed.”” The rotten, broken wood, branches and stumps left on the ground “may not look good to those of us used to keeping our yards neat and trim, but in the forest, the decomposing logs are a packed lunch for earthworms,” he says NEW APPROACH “The leaves, branches and old, rotting logs should be left to maintain the ecology; to sustain the resource for the future In the hot, dry B.C. Interior, growing trees need shade, *'so selective logging is very sound; it’s much bet ter than clearcutting which can lead to grasslands.”* In Smoody’s operation, most of the trees are left standing. It’s a new approach to logging lodgepole pine Traditionally, pine is clearcut because a new crop grows best when there is lots of sunshine. Smoody cuts only trees that have been attacked by mountain pine bark, then puts out an odor that attracts other beetles. Thousands of the insects bore between the bark and the wood, overcoming the tree's main line of defence, which is to try to push the beetles out with heavy Hows of sap What actually kills the trees is a fungus whose spores ride along on the beetle’s back POSSIBLESTAINING The beetle does not affect the quality of the lumber, Kimmins says, although if the dead trees are left stan- ding for some time, the fungus stains the outer wood blue. Smoody says selective logging is more effective than clearcutting to prevent the beetle’s spread. When a block is clearcut, as little as 15 per cent of the trees might be infected, he says, so most of the wood going to local millsis untouched by the beetle. Selective logging means the mills are processing more of the infected wood Clearcutting, the primary way timber is harvested across Canada, is cheaper than selective logging because it can be fully mechanized, takes less time, and requires less care, Kimmins says “With selective logging, you have to be careful not to damage the trees you're leaving. Trees don’t like heavy equipment driving over their toes — their roots and this can kill them.” Most logging done in the past was ‘‘creaming,”* taking out the best spruce and fir and leaving behind the pine, which was considered a waste wood, Smoody says Clearcutting can produce a better second growth, he says, but there now. are other considerations that carry more weight Snow in a large clearcut area melts faster than in forested land, washing soil into streams that feed local irrigation districts. The rapid melt also causes reservoirs to overflow, and contributes to water shortages later in the summer Selective logging buys time until new growth can take hold, Smoody says. Then small clearcuts can be done in the future with minimal impact on the water shed “fas much time, effort and money went into selec- tive logging as clearcut in the last 10 years, selective result in layoffs and millions of dollars in lost sales as Canada sought to in crease its share of the American market However, a spokesman for B.C."s forestry industry, which produces 80 per cent of Canadian plywood, dismissed the U.S. warnings, saying Canadian mills don’t have the capacity to sharply boost production When the free trade agreement went into effect in January, a dispute over Canadian building standards prom pled the U.S. to delay a scheduled cut in tariffs on Canadian plywood and other wood panel products. Canada responded by suspending its scheduled tariff reductions on U.S. plywood and related products Technical specialists trom the two countries are attempting to work out common: plywood standards for housing construction, and expect to make recommendations to the (wo governments early next year Canada Post may sell land VANCOUVER (CP) Canada Post will likely sell some of its prime real estate across Canada to finance its $2.5. billion, capital expansion program, the president of the Crown‘corporation said five-year Much of the sorting and processing that goes on in central plants like the one in downtown Vancouver could be done more efficiently in the suburbs, Donald Lander said in-an interview following a speech to the Vancouver Board of Trade “*We have some locations in high-priced areas," Lander said, ‘but we are doing manual type of labor that can be done in industrial areas or small business park areas that would probably be more suitable, and the cost is considerably different “Some of the plants we have across Canada are multi-storey. They're not as efficient as they would be if they’re all one floor and more amenable to mail movement that isn’t relying on alt the so-called mechanical requirements that lift it up to the fourth floor and bring it all the way back again.” DOLLAR HITS HIGH TORONTO (CP) The Canadian dollar hit a 10-year high compared with its U.S. counter part this mornitig The currency opened at 85 cents US in North American trading, a level not seen since Aug 8, 1979, That’s up about one-tenth of acent from Tuesday's close By mid-morning the dollar had dropped back only marginally Traders attributed the continued rise to the Bank of Canada’s high: interest-rate policy, which attracts foreign investors and speculators, thereby pushing up the value of the currency relative to the American greenback I's this interest-rate policy the government persists in ing’ that is pushing the up, said Merfyn Jones, chief of foreign exchange trading at the Canadian Imperial Bank of Com merce The Bank of Canada acted in the financial markets to buoy interest rates and this may overnigh have signalled to investors that despite signs of a slowing economy, the central bank remains resolute inits policy (Bank of Canada governor John) Crow refuses, and so do all his staff, to believe that there's a slowing economy and it’s slowing sharply,” Jones said THE BLUEBERRY CREEK RECREATION COMMISSION Extends sincere appreciation to all the talented craftspeople, local merchants and volunteers who, through their hard work and generosity made the 14th nnual Craft Fair a great success.
