More Camp Areas Needed Badly :

Provincial secretary. W. D, Black’s
‘-eall for greater park facilities in the Koo-
He “aftenays, is a’belated echo.in the proper at-

‘mosphere of ic organizations flung ; a-
ross this area's scenic grandeur.

with its waterfront: was purchased jointly
by the departments of recreation and wel-

‘fare. At that time, Mr. Black told his con-

stituents not to interpret this move: as a
prologue to ‘rapid development’ of needed
park and beach area, Mr, Black has ‘been
aman of his word, Nothing has been:done
to enh this property and. make it

‘conveniences of accesses and camping
sites. The West Kootenay, in truth, is the
poor cousin of the poor cousin.

campsites. -
The largest, provincial camp site in

Crime’s Victims
Whenever the government considers

tending a needed service to. those ac.
cused of crime, the question’ arises: But

available to the public. °°

We hope his words in the legislature
will exact and match the fulfillment of
his past words, and ‘to overcome this
recreational oversight in West Kootenay.

Greatest handicap. of Kokanee is its
limited camp sites. It is time ‘the govern: «
ment corrected this, Its Hamilton holdings
lie near the park and'a settlement satis-
factory to all concerned for the property
lying between the two park holdings is
not’ out. of the question. Kokanee Fark
must be extended and developed if it
to bring West Kootenay up to the allah
rooming standard of the province in the
competition for multi-million tourist dol-
lars.

We hope Mr. Black’s remarks ‘also
meant he wanted some action on access
to Kokanee Glacier Park. The : present
trails demand the daring of the mountain
climber to navigate. This scenic ‘gem has
too long been’ limited to the’ daring, the -
muscular and the ‘overnight adventurer.

With adequate access. -——- possibly
three: routes via North Shore, Kaslo and
Slocan Valley — and a large camping
area at Kok Creek, the ‘tourist Bo-

ave. seawall ie for Saateat
compensation of victims of crime. Serious’
consideration’ of this approach is long
overdue here. — ur ‘Goldberg,
associate justice, US. ‘Supreme Couirt

tential of the area would: boom. ;

No longer would tourists mark the
West Kootenay down as an overnight stop,
only.’‘The accessey to the park would ‘be
the lure ‘to linger and fully explore the
wonders of this area, ‘not only natural, but
man-made, like the Columbia river dams.
