proved by the voters, If resi-
dents vote in favor of the func-
tion a general meeting to or-

be held “right away”, he said,

But in contrast to Robson-
Raspberry residents, Area I
voters will await approval of
their fire protection proposal
before researching the cost and
rquirements of a volunteer fire
department.

According to John Moran,
the area's representative on the

Regional District of Central
Kootenay board, residents will
not establish a volunteer fire
department until they deter-
mine whether it would be
feasible to offer adequate fire
protection at a cost of up to
three mills or about $45,000
annually.
- Moran said the fire pro-
tection proposal is expected to
gain approval, although the
referendum has not generated
much excitement among Area I
residents.

“I imagine they will be-
come excited once it's passed,”
he said.

Three Mountain Communities Involved

‘Study Evaluates Effects of TV

The following article ap-
peared in the Vancouver Edu-

+ cation Research Bulletin:

In 1977, a team of UBC:

: psychologists headed by Dr.
: Tannis Williams released the

findings of a lengthy study on
the effects of ‘television on

three mountain communities.

One of the towns was

+ unique in that no TV reception

existed al the beginning of the

* project. A second town had had

only CHC reception for several
years, whereas the third town
had:CBC and three major U.S.
networks,

A number of studies were
conducted before or at the time
of the introduction of television
into the “unique” town and then
two years later. Results of
studies in all three towns were
compared for both testing ses-
sions.

‘Results of the studies
indicated that the effects of

Time is Running Out

Editor, Castlegar News:
Perhaps now that the
regional « district directors have
the

East and West Kootenays.
As for the argument that

the Kootenay Diversion, it ‘s
time to look realistically at the
situation and the arguments.

The directors cancelled the
vote — the public's opportunity
to express its opinion — on the
grounds that it was illegal. No
mention was made of pressure
from Bonner, chairman of B.C.
Hydro, to stop this referendum
ina closed meeting Aug. 9. The
directors promise a vote when
suitable bylaws will make it
legal.

YET, TIME IS RUNNING.
QUT! Bennett said the diver-
sion won't happen until 1984,
This is only nominally true. I
have a signed letter from
Bonner stating that the build-
ing of the diversion will start in
1979,

In other words—if we hold
the referendum. much later
than now, we may end up

_voting against a project” that

has already been started,

And, believe me, Hydro
will push, through the diversion
as soon as possible. Once the
bonds are posted, the earth
turned, how much do you think
Bonner cares whether Bennett
and his Socred party gets re- ,
elected?

Bennett is just a pawn in-
the hands of Bonner—a tri-
lateralist who. numbers among
his fellow

the Ameri will get it if we
don't, perhaps we should rea-
lize that almost half of the
power B.C, Hydro will be able
to generate will be taken away

* from Canadian power com-

panies along the
Canal.

The Americans would love
to have’ us build this project,
incur the expenses, the en-
vironmental damage and then
buy the power at cheaper rates
than Hydro produces it for.
(Which explains why. Hydro's
debt will never go down.).

As far as a negotiating
point with the Americans is

Kootenay

concerned on the Columbia _

River Treaty, perhaps Hydro
should explain why Mica Dam
has already been outfitted with
two new generators to accom-
modate increased flow result-
ing from the diversion, Ob-
viously the negotiations are
through.

B.C. doesn’t need the pow-
er from this project. Hydro
already exports 14 per cent of
it’s total power output to. the
U.S.A.’ and has applied for
permission to Victoria to in-
crease that amount. Hydro is
not building with our money to
supply B.C.'s needs; Hydro is
building to conform with the
plans of the Tri-Lateral Com-
mission and NAWAPA, the

Carter, David Rockefeller

tions, big labor unions and
