The Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing, the Hon. Hugh Curtis, made the announcement. Sunday as he officially opened the Washington Co-operative in Victoria. The co-operative contains 59 units, and is fully occupied. Mr. Curtis said the operating subsidies were set up to help ‘the societies with operating costs during the initial years. ‘The intention was to phase out assistance as members’ income + rose over the next seven or eight years, “Although it had been originally intended that the operating subsidies would be repayable, I am glad to be able to announce that repayment will no longer be required, and this decision would apply to all Co-operative Housing Societies who had been expected to make repayments,” Mr, Curtis said. ir. Curtis said once parti- cipating housing co-operatives are relieved of this burden, co-operatives’ members will pay lower rents in future. He also said that he hoped that the move would encourage the housing co-operative move- ment in British Columbia and particularly senior citizens’ co- operatives which, because of the low, fixed incomes of their - members, have found it difficult to create viable associations, He went on to stress that this new policy decision came about through. the continued co-operation of the provincial and federal governments. The Washington Co-opera- tive, in common with many other projects, has been built on land leased from the pro- vince and has received sub- stantial mortgage funding from * CMHC at specially reduced, interest rates. Puts Foot Down On Regional Board Spats Regional district chairman AK. McAdams has made an ‘appeal to board members for unity and cooperation in solving regional problems.

Louis Lemai, assistant di- rector for security at the prison said no one escaped through the tunnel, which extended “within a few feet of the outside fence.” The tunnel, discovered last Monday, is two feet in diameter and about five feet under- ground, The prisoners had hidden excavated dirt under piles of snow in a large yard used for sports, said Lemai. He said the prisoners dig- ging the tunnel “had a complete arsenal of tools”.

Bitter remarks have been exchanged between some direc- tors and the district adminis- trator, Gene Bodard. Several members have said privately that they feel Bodard has gained too much control of the regional “[tis unfair and unfounded accusation,”"- McAdams | said. + “To sit back and cry that some- body has too much authority is pretty hollow. Board members . have the right to change any- thing they want to change.” While the regional admin- istrator manages the regional district, he is an employee of the elected board, and must follow its policies. McAdams said at a Janu- ary board meeting that if there + was a lack of confidence in the administrator, a motion of con- confidence would be made. No member would make. such a motion, “He (Bodard) has had to take the initiative in order to get something done,” McAdams said Monday. “The letters come in to the administrator, and the board executive finds it difficult to get together. The lines of communication in the regional district get fractured because of the distances.” McAdams, who was elect- ed chairman by the board at its first meeting of the year, de- nounced remarks made at board meetings. “I don't think * it does anything toward creat- ing solidarity on the board,” he said. “Then we are just bicker- ing rather than solving pro- blems. This is an. appeal for some kind of order, so we can get on with the job.” Regionalism is the concept McAdams feels should be sought. “In too many cases people (board members) are concerned with their own areas. There is not enough of a feeling of working together. Rather than looking only at the problems in your area, there should be a feeling of solving regional problems.” Student Wears Long-Johns: With Reason Sixteen-year-old Bill Dra- bert of Gréat Falls, Montana, will wear red longjohns—drop- seat optional—to school all next week, By court order.
