The landmark judgment followed press reports that some private Indian and for- eign adoption agencies have been selling babies from the slums of Calcutta for several thousand dollars each in Canada, the United States and Western Europe. The reports sparked de- mands for reform of India’s adoption and fostering laws. There are about five million destitute children in India, which has a population of about 700 million. The court suggested the government set up a central clearing house for applica- tions by foreigners to adopt Indian babies.

Scenarios that make spy novel plots seem tame have been rehearsed. “We have to be prepared for everything from a simply deranged person to a domes- tic disturbance to a well- organized terrorist attack,” Best said. “Planning for the unknown is what keeps you awake at night.” Nightmarish events of the past are helping Olympic planners defend against fu- ture bloodshed. “We go to school on all past acts of terrorism,” Best said. “The thing that happened in Beirut assists you in keeping alert for the different kinds of things. “We can draw lessons from that and expect new wrin- kles.” A day of special security concern is July 28, when President Reagan will attend the opening cremonies at the The court ordered its 65- page ruling sent to lower In- dian courts as well as Indian embassies and diplomatic missiéns in Canada, the United States, Sweden, France, West Germany and Australia — the countries where the largest number of Indian babies are adopted.

Colderbonk WITH SFU DEGREE Beinder to be honored By CasNews Staff A former Trail man who has served on the Selkirk College council and the Trail school board will receive an honorary degree from Simon Fraser University this year. Frank Beinder, 73, served as chair- man of the Selkirk College council from ~ 1970-75, and on the Trail school board from 1953-72. On June 9, Beinder — who's bee described as “Mr. College” an: “foremost lay person in B.C. public education” — will receive his degree at the university's 1984 convocation cer- emonies. Also receiving honorary degrees will be Gov. Gen. Ed Schreyer, writer Hubert Reginald Evans, and academ- ieian Dr. Harry E. Gunning. Born and educated in London, Beinder worked at various jobs until joining the British ‘afthy in 1989, serving with anti-aircraft units in Britain and later at postings in the Middle East. He came to Canada in 1947 and began work with Cominco in the field of public relations. Beinder was president of the B.C. School Trustees Association from 1966-68, president of the B.C. Chamber of Commerce, a director of the Edu- cational Research Institute of B.C., and a founding member of the Teacher Qualifications Board, As well as serving as chairman of the Selkirk College council, Beinder was a member of the steering committee ‘ged with the task of overseeing the building of Selkirk College, was a member of a government appointed Community Colleges Task Force; was founder and president of the British Columbia Association of Colleges, and has served as executive director of the association since his retirement from Cominco in 1975. In the words of a nomination sup- porter and B.C. education adminis- trator: “Although some of his work has been published, Mr. Beinder is not a scholar. “Although he is knowledgeable and perceptive about issues in public ed- ucation, Mr. Beinder is not a pro fessional educator.

As well the residents raised ideas on how to protest the closure and sug gested alternatives to closing it. At the meeting, an ad hoc committee was formed to begin work on pro testing the Ministry of Highways’ de cision, which was announced earlier this week. Highways Minister Alex Fraser re portedly told a radio reporter Friday night in his Cariboo riding that he would be making a decision on the Interior ferries after 10 days. The ad hoc committee will consist of George Stein, Paul Puppholme, Jackie Earthquake jolts B.C. Aik artes peace ee CALGARY (CP) — A light earth. quake that “felt like a big truck rumbling down a street” jolted beds and rattled dishes Saturday across southern Alberta, British Columbia and Montana, including Castlegar. Though the quake was not felt by everyone in Castlegar there were re- ports that some residents did feel the tremor. Trish McGale of Elkford, said she was awakened by the tremor, which measured 4.6 on the Richter scale. “I was sleeping on the floor at the time,” she said. “It was just a rocking, just a swaying back and forth, so I glanced outside to see if it was a strong breeze or something. I didn't see the trees moving at all so I thought some- thing was kind of funny.” Frank Baldwin of the Earthquake Information Centre in Golden, Colo., said the quake’s epicentre was 40 kil ometres southeast of Lethbridge, Alta. It was felt as far south as St. Ignatius, Mont., 225 kilometres south of the border and from the western edge of Montana to Great Falls. In Alberta, the ground shook in Pin- cher Creek, Drumheller, Taber and Lethbridge, but not in Edmonton. “It's considered a light earthquake which means it probably didn't do any damage,” Baldwin said. “If any, it was slight, like cracked plaster or some- thing like that.” Const. Ross Marasco of the Crows- nest Pass RCMP said he felt his base- continued on page A2 White, Bill Marks, Darlene Schultz, Ken Wiley and Hank Cameron. Martin Vanderpol, Regional District of Central Kootenay representative for Area J, chaired Saturday's meeting and said the committee will “look for whatever way to keep it (the ferry) from going.” The committee will hold its first meeting today In addition, residents at the meeting voted to circulate two petitions and send them to Fraser. One will be for adults to sign, the other for school children who will also be affected if the ferry is shut down. The petitions will be circulated on both sides of the Columbia River. Vanderpol said the goal will be to get about 5,000 names on the petitions. He proposed the group send a telegram to Fraser urging the govern ment to keep thd ferry operational, citing reasons for’keeping it open. It was announced at the meeting that the Castlegar Downtown Business Association has sent a letter to Fraser saying they are “very disturbed” by the announcement, which will directly affect between 1,500 and 1,800 resi. dents who strongly rely on the ferry "Phe letter says, without the ferry, residents will have a 16 to 18 kilometre drive to the other side — an expense most residents-can't accept. The letter also said “immediate steps must be taken to upgrade the Hugh Keenleyside Road because it is not capable of handling the extra traffic. As well, the DBA said it would be directly affected because many resi- dents will decide to- shop elsewhere rather than make the trip downtown. At the meeting, residents also sug gested alternatives to shutting the ferry down. One suggestion was to talk to Koot- enay West MP Lyle Kristiansen about MARTIN VANDERPOL . 10-day reprieve obtaining federal grant money to oper: ate the ferry. Another was to inves. tigate the possibility of obtaining money from the B.C. Heritage Fund. Another résident commented: “If we win this thing and get the ferry back we've got three years to put up with the government. What's to stop them from doing this again? Why don’t we press the government to put in a bridge?” Rossland-Trail MLA Chris D'Arcy, who was at the meeting, said he has been trying to talk to the Minister of Highways about a bridge since D'Arcy was first elected in 1972, but the ministry's concern is over the high rate of interest on the capital costs of a bridge. D'Arcy also said he suggested to the continued on poge A2 BC Timber waiting for LRB decision By CasNews Staff and News Services The B.C.

That followed an informal meeting with the board on Monday. from the pulp mill produced by com- pany supervisors. BC Timber is arguing that its contract with the IWA does not allow the union to refuse to work with steam from the pulp mill, even though it is generated by pulp mill supervisors.

Instead, the branch maintains that “no more dams should be built,” says the report. It says B.C.
