Management at the mill, which with 175 workers is the largest employer in this town of 10,000, broke the news Friday afternoon — telling workers they were laid off immediately. “A lot of people are very disgruntled about the lack of notice,” said Gary McCandlish, International Woodwork ore ot America plant chairman. told us the shutd was for economic reasons, because the price of lumber has dropped to $130 a thousand (board feet of two-by-fours).” The reason for the closure was con. firmed by Brant Ducey, a spokesman for the B.C. R upturn in lumber prices, but the slump has continued and losses could no longer be absorbed. McCandlish said Westar officials had told him the company's sawmill in Castlegar would continue to run through July, filling firm orders from Belgium and the Middle East. POPULACE WORRIED “People have a lot of apprehension,” the IWA officer added, saying the level of housing starts in the United States would appear to warrant higher lum ber prices. “The normal market forces don't appear to be working,” McCandlish said. “People have a lot of fears, because Corp., of which Westar Timber is a subsidiary. Duecey said the Nelson mill had been kept open while Westar hoped for an t at this time the prices are good. They're asking themselves, ‘Are we off for a short time, or till next spring?’ " McCandlish said Westar had indi MISSING KIDS cated the price of lumber must rise to $160 a thousand board feet before the Nelson mill can reopen. The mill has been operating since May 1983, when it reopened after a 10-month layoff. Dennis Bannert, a Nelson alderman and head of the B.C. Federation of Labor's local unemployment action centre, said it was unconscionable of the company to have given so little notice of the latest shutdown. “It betrays a callous attitude that is not conducive to the partnership be- tween union and management that in- dustry is always talking about,” Ban- nert sai He estimated that, with Friday's mill closing, unemployment in the Nelson area is between 35 and 40 per cent. A Salvation Army soup kitchen has been serving 800 lunches a month. Lions set up program Editer It’s every parent's nightmare. Your child goes missing. Lost, runaway or abducted, it’s all the same in those first few terrifying hours. Your child's gone. And all you can do is call the police and comb the neighborhood. Until now. The Castlegar Selkirk Lady Lions are initiating a program that won't prevent children from disappearing, but it will help locate them as quickly as possible. It’s a child identification program modelled after a similar program having considerable success in the United States. “It’s a program of fingerprinting children and getting an identification photograph,” explains Iris Johnson, head of program fundraising for the Lady Lions. The program is simple. It works like this: parents bring their children to the Lady Lions and have them finger- printed and a photograph taken. The fingerprints and photograph are embossed on a plastie card which is im- mediately handed over to the parents. “There will be only one copy that ever exists,” explains Johnson, “. that will be the copy obtained by the parents. “We don't even keep a list of who we did.” It will be up to the parents to keep the card handy. If their child goes missing, parents simply hand the card over to police or search and rescue authorities to help them locate the child. “Everybody has a photograph of their child, but not everybody has fingerprints,” says Johnson. That's why the identification program works. But Johnson has a “strong personal” interest in the program. She is the mother of two sons — one aged three and the other a year. “That was my rien for getting the program started,” she said, “T'd heard of the program before and then it was a Lions sanctioned project and that really got us going.” Work on setting up the program began last month, but the idea came from a February Lions Club meeting when a Lions district representative spoke to local members on, a child identification program ih ‘the U.S. “He dropped all these ‘horror staries of what they can do to your child in 20 minutes,” said Johnson. “They” are child abductors and “baby sellers,” rare in Castlegar, but ‘becoming more common in larger cities fm both Canada and the U.S. IRIS JOHNSON . ‘special interest Johnson said the Lions spokesman told them of a case in an Alberta city where a mother and her three-year-old son were shopping in a mall when the boy went missing. The mother contacted the mall secur- ity shortly after she noticed the boy was gone and security immediately sealed off the mall entrances. Security members then lined up all children in the niall under five years and asked the mother if her child was among them. The woman looked the group of children over twice but said her child wasn't there. It was only after a careful examination a third time that the mother picked out her three-year-old. His hair had been cut and dyed and his clothes changed. He had also been drugged. She only identified the boy by his eyes. “We felt it was a program that needed doing .. . it was a worthwhile program,” says Johnson. She says the Lady Lions hope to fingerprint and photograph as many as 2,500 Gastlegar children in the second week in September. “It will probably be done on two con secutive weekends,” says Johnson, but that must still be confirmed. The Lady Lions will have 25 trained members to photograph and finger- print the children. “The police are training us to iden- tify, but that ‘is the extent of their in volvement,” assures Johnson. All children from three months to 13 years will be processed for free. “Anyone over 13 years we ask that the parents pay for it,” Johnson ex- plained, at a cost of $2. Johnson added that the program will be ongoing. “We are hoping to get it done every year.” She said there will be new children in the community each year, along with newborns, and other children will need to have their photo- graphs updated. Meanwhile, Castlegar RCMP wel- come the program. continued on a2 NELSON COMPANY WINS TIMBER LICENSE BID By CasNews Staff A Nelson company has been awarded the former Louisiana Pacific timber license near Salmo, Forests Minister Tom Waterland announced Friday. Smallwood Enterprises beat out seven other bidders for the license. The company has promised to build a specialty mill near Salmo in two stages, which will eventually employ as many as 50 people. The first stage, to be completed within 18 months, will in- clude a sawmill barker, chipper and planer which will produce joinery and panel products ‘for export and dimen. sion lumber for Canadian and U.S. markets. The company will employ about 35 people at that stage. The second phase, scheduled to be in operation with 2‘ years, will include a high technology sawing process with profiling and resawing capabilities. About 40 per cent of the production will be joinery grade produets for the overseas market and 30 per cent will be panel products. This stage will employ an additional 15 people. The forest license will permit an annual harvest of 33,920 cubic metres of timber for 20 years. The timber is located between Slocan Park and the U.S. border. “This timber will supply the basic raw material needs of the complex on a continuing basis and provide con- tinuous stable employment,” said Waterland in a prepared rélease. “Smallwood Enterprises’ proposal meets the criteria for creating em- ployment, ‘utilizing timber, contribut- ing to provineial revenue and main- taining the environmental quality, water, fisheries and wildlife resources in the area,” he added.
