The 85th session of the
Joint Doukhobor Research
Symposium, at the Castlegar
Sports Complex, saw another
round of d

Joint Doukhobor Research Symposium

Discussion Heated at Session

tinually quoting Chistiakoff's
sayings as authenticreferences,
and at the same time refuting
him as a true leader,

and confrontations on issues
basic to the overall Doukhobor
concept of life.

As has happened in the
past, the Freedomites attempt-
ed to prove the Orthodox as
being backward in their reli-
gious record, thereby trying to
justify their own.

A heated verbal exchange
tock place, centering mainly
around the issue of Simma
Holt's book, Terror in the Name
of God, and the statement con-
tained therein, which accuses
Peter P. Chistiakoff, the late
Doukh leader, o} ici

Bat and his group
were asked to stop playing
polities and purposely provok-
ing dissension through cireu-
lating slanderous literature
through their underground
press,

A one-time participant of
the Freedomite group, F. E.
Podovelnikoff, voiced a thought
all the meeting endorsed. He
said the matter of ascertaining
the true source of Simma Holt’s
information upon which she

new brick school house built by

Jacob Verigin of Castlegar
suggested all w of immoral
conduct, such as stealing, spee-
ulating on communal lands and
spreading slanderous literature
were a form of terrorism,

William Popoff: of Ooti-
sehenia read into the record
two documents from the past,
having to do with the burial of
the late leader, Peter P,

Chistiakoff, on Feb, 19, 1939.
Also the “Message” of said
leader, transmitted to the peo:
ple through a resident of Saska-
toon, John Maloff.

A. special message was
read from the chair at the open-
ing of the meeting, giving honor
to the late Anna Markova,
whose absence was felt
by all. Also, in her honor the
meeting rendered a hymn:
“While on Others Thou Art
Calling, Do Not Pass Me ‘By!"

Elk, Flathead
Water Study
Now Complete.

A technical report on wa-
ter quality in the Elk and
Flathead River basins has been
completed by the Water In-
vestigations Branch, Environ-
ment Minister Jim Nielson said,
recently,

This report is part of its
Phase II study of alr and water
quality in the East and West
Kootenays.

Nielsen said the study

Peter Lordly Verigin, a state-
ment that the Orthodox have
repeatedly called false and
slanderous.

that succumbing to weakness

Simma Holt in court if they felt
her accusations were false. This
question was countered by a
return question of why the
Freedomites themselves, who
are descendants of the same
parent group, failed to do so,
and why they were pressing
the issue upon the Orthodox
while claiming innocence.

Many people, basing their
conclusions on evidence pre-
sented, felt that this was an
intentional scheme on the part
of the Freedomites, for it was
the Freedomites of Krestova
that supplied Mrs, Holt—ac-
cording to her own statements
—the material which she used
in her book.

: When asked about his
personal beliefs as to whether
Holt’s accusations were true or
not, Babakaeff deferred an-
swering. He also produced no
clear answer to the incon-
sistancy of the Reformed, con-

Girl Struck

Police attended an accident
Monday afternoon in which a
1974 Austin, driven by Kenneth
Kennedy of Castlegar was in
collision with a 9-year-old girl
riding a bicycle on Fifth Ave. S.
at Eleventh Street.

The girl received minor
hand injuries while the damage
to the vehicle has been esti
mated at $250. No charges have
been laid.

This Week's

A from the
family of the late Peter N.
Maloff was read into the record
in which he was characterized
as being dedicated to efforts of
peace and goodwill. The state-
ment considered the noble
pacifist record of Peter N.
Maloff as sufficient evidence to
refute Freedomite allegations
that he was involved in acts of
arson and violence.

In. addition an old news-
paper clipping was submitted in
which it was recorded that
Peter N. Maloff refuted any
complicity in acts of arson or
violence. i

Peter J. Soloveoff read
into the record three separate
authentic decuments in letter
form, written in 1930 by John
G. Bonderoff, the then see-
retary of the Named Douk-
hobors of Canada.

The letters graphically por-
trayed Freedomite depreda-
tions of the thirties, directly
against the Community mem-
bers, and the extent to which
the Community went in order
to prevent an open violent
confrontation with the fanatical
elements, even to the point of
abandoning their homes. All
this transpired at the Com-
munity of Glade, following a
