That's what the forestry report prepared for the Manpower Ad- justment Committee of the Central Kootenay Regional District cost. The report, prepared by highly- respected forestry consultants Reid Collins and Associates and Wood- bridge Reed and Associates, was released a week ago by the com- mittee. It hasn't been well received in all quarters (most notably, the Forest Service), but a perusal of it by knowledgeable people familiar _ with-the-industry agree with com- mittee chairman. Charlie Cohoe's assessment: The report “is basic- ally an analysis of what is out there . . . It's an- overall assessment without biases _to. any firm = or organization." Conceived over a year ago (and following terms of reference decided upon by the committee), the report does far more than deal with timber allocation. The thought comes through pretty clear that existing operators, who have sur- vived (some just barely) in a tight economic environment have done a good job — and their contined existence prove: The job eataitial is with* the small and existing operators. If the needs of the existing operators are met, then present forestry/lum- ber/pulp workers will continue working, their ranks will be joined by other contributing citizens, and the ripple effect will spread out in- to the larger community. The $50,000 report, funded by the regional district, the provincial —— Ministry of Labor, and Canada Em- ployment and Immigration, must “not be allowed to gather dust.

We must take the ministry's acting. regional manager at his word when he says that the recommendation to provide more wood for existing mills can only be done “by weakening the supply base for a new timber processing facility located near Nelson.” But the decision should not be that solely of the Forestry Ministry. Besides being an economic issue, ‘the subject must also be a political one. Regional, municipal, provincial and federal levels of government should all-be involved, as should , unions, and special in- terest groups. if the people of Nelson and people Kootenay_Lake-near Nelson really want a mill, then governments should listen closely to .those desires and likely acede to them. However, those same citizens might first ask the people of Slocan City if the mill at the foot of Slgcan Lake is what they would choose today for. their community, even with the economic climate being what is is, and what it is likely to continue to be for the forseeable future. the City of City council made. right decision — Castlegar council made the right d : Vancouver becouse y night in-d not to hold.an early byelection. to fill the vacancy to be created when Ald. .

The foregoing is only a brief outline to show where the Doukhobor faith came from; the tribulations it had encountered along the way at the hands of at power in 312 AD brought a large measure, of peace into the troubled Christian by issuing an times when church and state were closely allied in their combined efforts (the harlot fornicating with kings and itely-created—and-perpetuated iveness with the Doukhobor “Documentation presented” throughout the E-KCIR sessions “flavors too strongly of Perceptibility” edict declaring: ‘that _further-persecu= tions of the Christians be terminated’.- He builta magnificent temple, and de- dicated it to the Christians where they could come, pray, and worship the god of their choice without fear of being and can hardly be in the historical context. There seems to be some ambiguity in the minds of our Reformed friends as to the meaning of the term ‘history’, and to what history I referred to-in my text to the Editor of Castlegar News on April 14, 1985 — “History ‘proves otherwise”. History ‘per se’ is defined in the ic- tionary “a record of events in the life of a nation, state, institution, epoch, ete.” From this definition one cannot help but understand that the record of events would of implied necessity be factual events, and not anyone's imaginative perceptions. And that is the basis upon which “history will prove otherwise.” Jesus Christ by virtue of his struggles against evil forces in his time, with-the help of the spirit; was the first Doukhobor (spirit wrestler), and as such was indisputably the first Doukhobor leader whose teachings were instrumental in exposing the in- justices and unrigh of the to suffer a martyr's te _ “on one diti —on to-prevent the—spread—of— dissidence; and the camouflaging tactics. of the priesthood to select politicians in governmental capacities who displayed promise that could be relied upon to squelch undesirable doc- trines of ethnic groups under legal holidays only — and live as all other people — Jews, Romans, etc., on the other six days of the week, as law abiding citizens of the ish: Example: Sir Wilfrid Laurier being Prime Minister of Canada in 1906 (quote) “—was vindictive in his hos- order. The majority of the more trepid Christians, tired of being hounded by the authorities, accepted Constantine's “one condition” and thereby continued as Chrisitians in name only. The de- tility to. the Doukh and perhaps was thé-real author of much of the mischief. Perhaps because of his strong Catholic background, Laurier saw little use for a group that denied the need for an institutionalized church.” (end of quote) From Plakun Trava — The deicated few who decli their birthright for a “mess of potage” had no choice but go underground to carry on whith the Good Master's teachings — in deeds as well as in words.

There will be no extra charge for filling swimming pools with village water, but they must’ be filled with a ’ garden hose and must be equipped with a filter system.

It is thought that the early registration procedure used by the college for the first time this year may have some bearing on the increase. Castlegar council decided against a rezoning application in the Sheribiko subdivision which would have allowed these troubled people.’ for construction of a six-storey apart- ment. The application, for “commercial could well have been the beginning of selling as reflected in the actions and service” zoning was opposed by a the Dark Age for Doukhobor faith. Our Reformed friends must bear in mind that vow is just as valid and held poised today as on the day it was made, though the means employed to achieve that end are more sophisticated today the Christian expressions of some of these same people whom he came to save, paint a very different picture than what the Reformed youngsters are so keenly intent on portraying.

Bennett, father of Bill’ Bennett officially spoke at the opening of the High Arrow Dam, now -the Keenlyside Dam, the local service clubs purchased enough Dixie Lee chicken to feed 1,000 people on a very hot Saturday afternoon, only 300 spec- tators showed up to listen to our former premier address; even some of the C.B.A. engineers did not attend, they had worked through for near seven years all through the construc- tion of the haul road looking for fill up the mountain, behind Robson. My husband sharpened the—picks every night in our back yard for. the Doukhobor laborers who knew more about digging bore pits because of their experience digging graves for their dead since the early 1900s. On July 1, the local service clubs prepared barbecue baron. of beef, baked beans, hot dogs, dinner rolls, cole slaw, plus cake and many diff- erence drinks; they expected 500 mouths to feed, again only 300 showed up.
