: -RCMP..’S, - Sgt. Robert
Kraus of Castlegar said Tues-
day the. cases represented a
drastic increase from the same
period last year in charges
involving alcohol.

Kraus quoted ‘statistics
showing liquor related offences
have almost doubled in 1979
compared to the same period
last year.

From January to May of
1978, he said there were a total
of 58. liquor charges, while the
same five-month period’ in 1979
brought 102 liquor offences.

According to: provincial
court judge Bruce Josephson of
Castlegar, fines have been

*. increased for liquor charges in

an attempt to decrease offen-
ces.

“The purpose was stated in
court: that present fines. were
no deterrent whatsoever,” Jo-

:sephson said.

Josephson added that he
and judges LJ. Keffer and
Richard D'Andrea decided that
fines should be increased. The

new fines came into effect a,
