__ CASTLEGAR NEWS, September 21, 1983 . - EUROPEAN BEER WAR COMES TO HEAD FRANKFURT, ‘WEST GERMANY (AP), = European ‘beer war has come to a head over watt Germany's ban on foreign brews with chemical additives. |° _; The 46T-year-old “purity law” says that Weat German beer ‘must contain only hops, malt, yeast and water. The, law forbids domestic sale of beers brewed ‘from other substances or eontalalog preservatives , to make them last longer. But the executive council of the European Economié bh Community in Brussels, reacting to complaints from |.:' France and other countries, ruled that the German law violates the common market ‘treaty against trade restraint. The council ordered West Germany to either open its frontiers by Sept. 80 to foreign beers brewed from non-German recipes or face court action. But Heiner Geissler, the West German minister of health, has vowed to maintain the ban on “impure beer,” Certified General: Accountant "270 Columbia Ave. Castlegar,’ Ph. 365-2151) saying the well-being of the West German public is at stake. “The purity law preserves ‘the health of, our consumers,” Geissler said. “The federal government will therefore offer decisive resistance to all attempts to topple the purity law.” HOPING MAD The 1,300 breweries ‘in West Germany are hopping mad. They fear that an invasion of beef from abroad could unsettle the domestic market, where consumption has’ stagnated at a world-leading 148 litres —about 40 gallons — per capita a year. German brewers produce 56,000 different kinds of | beer, varying from tangy pils with four per cent alcohol to dark ¢ soable bock beer with six per cent or more alcohol. beers have as many as 60 different, additives,” said’ Peter Stille, executive director of the German Brewers’ Association. “There's no good reason for brewing with all those chemicals.” French brewers led the fight against German brewing regulations. Bernard Gance, vice-president of the General Syndicate of French Brewers, said the German rules are discriminatory and “verge on unfair practice.” : He said French exports to West Germany plummeted from about 21 million litres in 1976 to less than two million litres in 1982 because of the stringent application of German regulations. When a French beer goes on sale in a German shop, Gance said, West German officials come and take a sample for analysis and forbid further sale until the laboratory test is completed. A sign is peated saying the beer has been taken for analysis, he said, “thus damaging the reputation of the French beer even when the analysis showed later it was completely in conformity.” Even without French pressure, Gance said, the common market would have undertaken action against ‘West Germany under Article 30 of the Treaty of Rome, “which: calls for free circulation of products if they conform with their national regulations.” Stille said West German brewers were co repelling the foreign invaders in’a court case on common market rules against selling products that could endanger consumers’ health. Furthermore, he asserted that the “purity law” does not discriminate against foreign brewers because. the same rules apply for all beers sold on the German market. “It is not very logical to claim that foreign beers have suffered losses because of.the purity law,” Stille said. brands — Carlsberg of Denmark - bets Pilsener Unquell of Czechoslovakia among them’ — doing very well on the West German market:” “Foreign 10,500 lent of years old . Parks Canada finds artifacts BANFF, ALTA. (CP) — Parks Canada archeologists, in a bid to grasp a piece of history before it is obliter- _ ated by highway expansion, have dug up evidence of civ- ilization in Banff National Park dating back 10,600 years. Artifacts unearthed in, the Vermilion Lakes area west of Banff. are still being tested but are “promising”, Parke Canada archeologist Dary) Fedje said in an interview. Discoveries from the first archeological done in the area include des-. sicated remains of. mammal bone, charcoal, hearth “fea- tures, stone tools and parts of hunting weapons such as lances, spears and arrows. Archeologists moved into i the area after the federal government decided to spend $60 million to widen 14 kil- ometres of the Trans-Canada Highway. Fedje and a crew of four conducted an initial heritage assessment last summer. In June, he and a crew of 16 began digging at four sites along the highway.. So far, the project has cost $200,000. Fedje said archeological exploration within the park was minimal until 10 years ago because the area wasn't considered. to have much potential. But sites indicating ancient habitation have been found at Lake Minnewanka, east of Vermilion Lakes, and excavation © at Muleshoe, an area to the west. r Fedje said all the explor- ation has been in response to’ development. “We're. trying to keep ahead of the developers. There is only so much money and our priority right ‘now is to salvage as much infor- mation as we can: before | . ‘ H* Hotpoint these sites are destroyed for- ever.” He said one small site dis- covered last summer “has considerable potential for further interpreting the cul- tural history in this region of the Rocky Mountains.” Information to date coin- cides with that turned up in other areas of Alberta — that man was around immediately after the glacial recession about 11,000 years ago. Fedje said one Banff area site distinctly shows at least four previous land formations that could span 10,500 years. “It's in pristine condition and unique in that ‘it is the only one discovered to date. “We also have found some- where in the neighborhood of a dozen pieces of bone iden- tifiable as to species in an- other area, Bone is generally poorly preserved in this park because of the el “MOROSO, MARKIN & BLAIN - Certified General Accountants: 241 Columbia Ave: Castlegar Ph, 365-7287 ———— OPPS PIE ETE Soligo, Koide: & John Chartered.
