CAMPBELL Editor and Publlsher $3.00 per year — 850 month by carrier Member: B.C, Weekly Newspapers Advertising Bureau Authorized as second class mail, Post Office Department, Ottawa CASTLEGAR NEWS, Thursday, August 13, 1959 Water isa Vital Factor Everywhere; Action on Reservoirs Must be Taken Through these columns during the past year Castlegar News readers have read a great deal about water and the future. Water in this day and age is a vital factor in the future prosperity of not only com- munities but of nations as a whole. The recent editorial “Waste of Water Can Lead to Real Trouble for U.S.A.” will * give some idea of what lies ahead: Every day the volume of water re- quired by the American standard of living is climbing. Yet water continues to be our most wasted product — through preventable floods, stream pollution and failure to level out the periods of surplus and shortage by intelligent storage. The latest warning comes from Maj. Gen. E. C. Itschner, chief of the United States Army Corps of Engin- eers, He told the Mississippi Valley Associa- tion that “We must overhaul our entire concept of water-resources programs and the way we go about carrying them out. If we do not we shall find unnecessarily low ceilings on our growth caused by a lack of water.” A sound and up-to-date water re- sources development program for each riv- er basin was described by the general as a prerequisite. These would be based on com- prehensive surveys by the Federal agencies concerned, in co-operation with the states and local governments. One angle of General Itschner’s warn- ing particularly stands out. “Reservoirs,” he said, “are keys to the future adequacy of water supply for .all purposes. As an ex- ample, our preliminary studies indicate that by 1980 we shall need almost double the - storage now available or under construc- tion for the Mississippi and its tributaries, for flood control, low-flow regulations and water supply. “But we face a critical problem of re- servoir sites. Good locations for major im- poundments are already being lost at an alarming rate as improvements of one kind or another — industrial plants, housing projects, highways, public utilities and other facilities — are built in the very places reservoirs shpuld be located.” ‘Some foresighted action to save neces- sary reservoir-sites would seem to be in or- der, not to mention reforestation programs designed to protect the natural reservoir of water—the earth itself. World Refugee Year A resolution of the’ United Nations General Assembly which has been accorded scant attention thus far in Canada has set 1959 as World Refugee Year. The purpose of the UN resolution ‘is to stir the govern- ments and peoples of the free world into positive action to provide permanent homes for refugees exiled, mostly for political rea- sons, from their own countries. In Western Europe alone there are now 160,000 people living in exile most of them the victims of Soviet totalitarianism and aggression. A million Arabs in the Middle East have been homeless for eleven years. In Red China, some 8,000 Europeans, homeless and hopeless, plead for the op- prtunity to begin a new life elsewhere. Surely Canada could find a place for some of these hopeless thousands of uproot- ed people. Surely immigration policy should be’such that many of them could be-encour- aged to come to this country and begin life anew: Canada, it may fairly be asin lent}. its support to the UN Assembly resolution naming 1959 as World Refugee Year. If so then surely the government should match| words with deeds and make it possible for some of these refugees to become new Can- adians, Canada needs a larger population just as surely as the refugees themselves need an opportunity to establish themselves} in dignity and freedom. ~ OTN Leffer. fo fhe. Editor Dear Sir: During. the past two months readers have been amused. by displayed in your newspaper. It is hard to. say how many times oversized headlines about the question “So what?” Many, times I have wondered if you are aware that the excessive public: ity given in your paper to the! Sons of Freedom is exactly what they want. This evening, on turning to page elght, I found the elusive “personal column” which, some- page. ‘This. evening's “personal col- umn" was a. special one because. it contained one of the most aud- acious and unethical pieces of reporting I have ever scen, The writer's version of the Bennett Bond. Burning Farce was so slanted and unreliable it scar- ecely resembled descriptions of, the same event in other sec pers. It seems to me that one. of] the. most important qualifica- tions of a good newspaper is. the ability to report objectively the facts and events about which. ity is concerned. Moreover, if the] Castlegar News is to be political bulletin, it should. be advertised’ and sold as such, Perhaps you, could call it the “Social. Creditor" Norm. Johnson. see Editor's note: At no. time! during the past two months, in, I have noted that many of your some of the amateurish reporting} how, found its way off the front]' High School Promotion List The folowing is the.complete pass list for grade 11,,12. and. 13 at Stanley Sr.Sr, High School: Pig 11, Martin, Thomas Mojeitky,, Lenore Morey, Mary Nazaroff,.
