Bring Electoral changes get house backing By MIROCERNETIG VICTORIA (C P) British Columbia's electoral boundaries, ruled unconstitutional and unfair by the B.C. Supreme Court in April, will be redrawn by.next year under abil in the provincial day The Social Credit government also pein to in the size of the legislature to 75 members from 69, ¢ non-partisan electoral boundaries commission and eliminate dual-member ridings by January 31, 1990. “t's really a milestone," said Socred backbencher Larry Chalmers, chairman of the seven-member committee that unanimously recommended the changes The NDP and Socreds thumped their oak desks in ap- proval when Provincial Secretary’ Bill Reid read the proposed law in the house The proposed law ifiplements most of the recommen- dations of county court Judge Thomas Fisher who carried out a one-man royal commission on electoral reform last year After taysing the province, Fisfier recommended of all 17 di ‘ber ridings, the legislature to 75 seats and ensuritig that the population of ridings not fluctuate by more than 25 per cent from the provincial average of 38,523. Altering the map, a process that at times had politicians shouting’ insults in the legislative hallways, became a necessity after a precedent-setting ruling by the B.C, Supreme Court last April. In her last ruling before being appointed to the Supreme Court of Canada, Chief Justice Beverley, McLachlin concluded a wide disparity in population bet- ween northern ridings and those in the south gave voters in sparsely populated ridings more clout at the polls, GROUP PETITION McLachlin’s decision was prompted by a petition from the B.C. Ciyil Liberties Association. Mr. Justice Kenneth Meredith later ruled that the provincial gover- nment could set its own timetable in redrawing the boun- daries. An example cited by McLachlin was the vast north: western riding of Allin. In the 1986 election, Aulin’s 2,400 voters elected ohe member to the legislature, the same as Coquitilam-Moody near Vancouver where there are 36,000 voters. Chalmers said he believes the next election will be run under the new boundaries. “If there were a snap election it would of course be held under the old boundaries,"’ he said. ‘But unless you know something I don’t, that’s not going to happen,”” Premier Bill Vander Zalm doesn’t have to call an elec: tion until 1991 Tax case- continued trom front page tact Dalton but reminded Paling talking to a lawyer would not get the message of legal action to Hadikin. The 50 to 60 per cent garnishee of Hadikin’s wages was to be of the company’s money, not family income, DeShane said Asacontractor, Hadikin did not draw a weekly salary He received large lump sums of money when he contracted a job for his company DeShane said he was not aware during the conver sation that Paling was being upset in any way. His conversation with Hadikin a while later was just as straightforward and businesslike, DeShane said Hadikin called from a pay phone to tell DeShane he was headed north to find work and the two men discussed business in detail, DeShane said, including what the * proceeds from the sale of equipment had been used for and A the bankruptcy proceedings Hadikin was pursuing. DeShane then received a call from Dalton, he said, demanding an apology for the manner in which he had spoken to Paling. He ‘*felt no need’’ to apologize, he said, since he had said nothing to upset her. He had not been aware Paling was four months pregnant at the time, he ad- ded Hadikin said he remembered the conversation with DeShane differently. The discussion was short and heated, he said, and Hadikin demanded DeShane apologize to Paling, whom Hadikin had called earlier Business was not discussed in detail, Hadikin said, and he only told DeShane the bankruptcy proceedings were going ahead Judge Fabbro will hear the lawyer's summations on Thursday and has suggested he may rule then on the question of jurisdiction, Dalton said in an interview.

The summit declaration&glled for a meeting of ‘‘all interested Spuntries’” within the coming weeks t discuss Poland and Hungary There were few specific aid com. mitments, although the seven leaders promised to consider and co-ordinate economic assistance ‘‘aimed at tran- sforming and opening’ the economies of Poland and Hungary and ‘to sustain the momentum of reform."* The leaders reaffirmed their support for easing Poland’s foreign debt bur den — amounting to the equivalent of about $47 billion Cdn — by relaxing its payment schedule.

(AP) — An ex-law school student identified as a suspect in the worst unsolved serial murder case in the United States never seemed to throw anything out, except for details of his life on the run. William Stevens is described by Green River task force investigators in a court affidavit as a man who collected police badges and old police ‘cars. He meticulously kept dated gas receipts and maintenance records of vehicles he hadn't driven in years. Yet former friends and acquaintances say he rarely discussed much of his past in detail The task force is investigating the slayings of as many as 48 women in the Pacific Northwest between 1982 and 1984. It was seven years ago this week that the first Green River victim was found ‘He was a ... shadowy kind of guy, | mean he was there, but he wasn’t,"’ said Kent Hansen, who met Stevens at Gonzaga University School of Law. ‘‘I think we were all trying to figure him."" Police arrested Stevens at his parents’ Spokane last January on charges of escaping from a Seattle work-release facility in 1981. He had been serving time for robbing a police equipment business in October 1979. Stevens had attended law school for 3/2 years at the time of his arrest in January and had served twice as student bar president at Gonzaga It is his life from 1981 to 1985, when he enrolled at Gonzaga, that the Green River task force is interested in. Police say Stevens was in the vicinity of several of the Green River victims, many of them prostitutes, when they were last seen home in Stevens was the oldest of three adopted children. His mother recently died, and his father, who declined an inter view Friday, recently underwent an operation for a brain tumore, former acquaintances said. Stevens was a heavy-set child who kept a collection of police badges in a glass case and who later bought used police cars at auctions. King County Capt. Bob Evans in Seattle, commander of a task force investigating the case, said that investigators had speculated that the killer“ posing asacop.”” Stevens would often visit his parents after moving to the Seattle area to attend the University of Washington, where he graduated in 1975 with a degree in psychology He apparently entered the U.S. army after un dergraduate school, and served as an officer in charge of a military police unit Sarina Caruso, 44, of Portland, Ore., said she once asked him if he was the Green River killer. He replied: “Don’t start that rumor. People around here think I’m weird enough.” Caruso, could be a cop or someone who described herself as ‘‘probably the closest thing he had to a friend," described Stevens as bizarre and anti-social But another woman who knew Stevens from Gonzaga described him as outgoing and friendly and said he took more interest in his student bar activities than he did in classroom work “He likes working with organizations and helping people,"’ said the woman, a Seattle-area lawyer who did not want to be identified economic problems and environmen tal issues atop the Grand Arch, a 35- storey avant-garde cubic structure of glass and marble On China, the political com munique urged the World Bank to postpone new loans to Beijing and surimit leaders all promised to shelter Chinese students who did not want to go home. Claim said based on error VANCOUVER (CP) — An Indian land claim to more than 50,000 square kilometres of northwestern British Columbia is based on an erroneous view of history, says a lawyer for the provincial government The claim’ by the Gitksan- Wet’suwet’en Tribal Council wrongly asserts the Indians were given title to the land prior to 1871, when British Columbia joined Canada, Mike Goldie told a B.C. Supreme Court hearing. Chief Allan McEachern, who is hearing the case, has said it is the most important aboriginal land claim trial ever undertaken in Canada. The hearing began in May 1987 and has already consumed 244 trial days The area being claimed is about 1% times the size of Vancouver Island The province does not contend the Indians waived title to the land, Goldie said in his opening statement Thur- sday “What will be submitted is that there never was in British Columbia prior to July of 1871 any concept of native title ... analagous to ownership and jurisdiction,” he said. The Indians their case late last week, relied in part on the royal Proclamation of 1763 but also said the Indians have title by reason of their centuries-long oc- cupation of the land Goldie acknowledged the claim for ownership and jurisdiction, if suc cessful, would vest control of the land and its resources in the Indians But the Colony of British Columbia never made land cession treaties with Indians — and exclusive authority to do so passed to the federal government in 1871, he said. All that was recognized prior to union was an interest of the native peoples in their occupied villages and cultivated fields, as well as their fishing and hunting rights, Goldie said. Some of the opinion evidence ten dered by the claimants’ “‘called into question the honor of the Crown’’ regarding the treatment of native Indians, he said “‘In its broadest terms, the issue that is raised is whether the Indian peoples of this province have been treated fairly,"’ Goldie said He said the defence case, which is expected to conclude in December, will support the conclusion British Colum bia is far from being the only jurisdic tion in Canada not to have recognized aboriginal title Justice lawyers, who closed lawyers Hospitals vote to ratify deal VANCOUVER (CP) — British Columbia hospitals have voted to ratify a tentative contract with their support workers, the hospitals’ bargaining agent announced Friday The two-year deal between the 144 member facilities of the health Labor Relations Association and the Hospital Employees’ Union provides compounded wage increases. The average union member earned about $12 an hour under the old contract, The new agreertient is retroac- tiveto April l The settlement came after a one-week strike that began June 24, although many union members were already off the job, honoring picket lines set up 10 days before by unionized nurses. The employees’ union strike eventually affected 80 hospitals and health facilities. Gorbachev makes appeal PARIS (CP) appeal to the Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev has made a direct non-Communist world’s seven leading industrial ‘democracies for closer East-West economic co-operation Ina letter to French President Francois Mittertand, host of the Paris summit, Gorbachév said the Soviet Union is ready to join western efforts toease Third World debt Saying the Soviet Union wanted to play a full part in the world economy, Gorbachev said he favors setting up contacts between gover- nmental economic experts to find a common economic language.

(AP) — An Alabama prison official said Friday that although it took two tries to execute a convicted killer in the electric chair, the first jolt of electricity rendered him unconscious. The botched execution of Horace Franklin Dunkins — the first try apparently failed because of a faulty cable hookup — is likely to refuel arguments by death penalty opponents that the electric chair is ‘*cruel and unusual punishment A 1983 execution that took three jolts of electricity led to a federal court challenge. The courts ruled the use of the electric chair Was con- stitutional Dunkins’s lawyer called the drawn-out electrocution a ‘grisly scen: The state prison commissioner called it “human error.”” Royal couple have musical day CHARLOTTETOWN (CP) — Prince Andrew and Sarah's second day in Canada took a musical turn Friday — some of it of f key The Duke and Duchess of York attended a gala performance of En- core, a retrospective celebrating 25 years of musicals at the Charlottetown Festival Earlier in the day, royal fanfare gave way to Bud the Spud during a walkabout outside the Queen Elizabeth Hospital As a tinny recording of the Stompin’ Tom Connogg classic blared from a loudspeaker, the royal couple exited the hospital aid waded into a large crowd tocharm and chat Moments later a live country and western bank kicked in with a twangy version of Coat of Many Colors Trip cost Canadians $100,000 TORONTO (CP) — It cost taxpayers $104,000 to fly Mila Mulroney and Environment Minister Lucien Bouchard home from the francophone summit in Dakar, Senegal, last May, federal documents show.
