Do Not Ignore Dreams ft parents knew. how . to ead. their children’s dreams, there would be more psychics in the world.. All of us are born with psychic powers, we just don’t develop them, says.a Texas tecturer who calls himself “practical sensitive, “Each of us has the gift of) tf psychic power, but it’s like: a, muscle that withers from lack of use,” says Denis Phelan. He uses.himself as a good example. “One night. when Iwas a child I had a dream about a neighbor I was close to, dying in a car crash,” he recalls, “The next day I found out it was true.” His parents recognized this for what it was, a true psychic revelation. ‘Fortunately, they decided to develop this talent in their son, “We all have perceptive abilities but most children are discouraged at an early age.” says the long-haired, young clairvoyant. Dreams unlock these pow-* ; but too many parents stifle’ He’ encourages using the child’s natural ability to see the future for good. “Albert Einstein . was a man_ tuned vto. the universal mind,” he smiled. “He never took credit for any of his ideas,” which Mr. Phelan says were more’ intuition: "We doh't realize how sensitive we are,” he continued. “Like Eingtein we can break out® of our three-dimensional world,” It's a gamble that could pay off.

Some might say, ‘That's not much for. a big ‘company like Cominco’, but you can also look at it this way: the $20 million is equal to 27 cents out of every dollar earned by the whole company last year. “We can also express it in this fashion: Cominco employs 5,000 people in the Kootenays. ‘That $20 million amounts to an average of $4,000 per job. I can remember not too long-ago studies which indicated that the average capital cost of creating a new job was something like $10,000—and ‘here ° we «hava spent $4,000 per existing job in less than a year. I should add that approximately $1,000 per job of that sum was expended to meet various government regulations; in other words, about $5 million. “One other. expenditure is rather interesting when itis expressed in terms of jobs. We pay some $9 million in. local, regional and provincial taxation on land, buildings and equip- ment, “Of course, everyone pays taxes, Most. people Seana that taxes are too high, so about -$9° million for a large company like Cominco for local taxes may not seem to be much.

In this kind of planning we need every bit of expertise, experience, talent, brains ‘or whatever that we can muster, and it also helps to have a crystal ball, Because in thinking about new plant or plants, that, average of $10,000 per job which I quoted before, isn't even a drop in the bucket.. “It may interest you to know that we have recently spent $600,000 right here in Trail on just one long term planning study. That's $600,000 and it's only preliminary plan- oc a de ning. In looking into the future, while we can be happy about the market future for lead and nc, these are some of the things we have to be worried about: What new technology will we use?
