BY JACK WHITE

At'the zone mecting in Salmo
of. the West Kootenay Rod and
Gun Clubs, there was the best
representation from member clubs
that we have had‘in quite some
time.: Over 80 delegates were pre-
sent from 10 member clubs, as well
as representatives from the Fish
and Game Branch and a member
of the East Kootenay Zone.

A full agenda was on the ta-
ble and though the meeting was
underway by 10.30 it did not ad-
journ until 5.45 p.m. A great var-
icty of business was covered and.
a new slate of officers elected.

_ Incoming President Harry Han-
son, who was chairman of last
year’s ways and means commit-
tee, gave a short explanation of
the finances of the Duck Lake
committee. He stressed that taxes
and diking fees on the 180 acres
leased by the association a few
years ago in an effort to keep it
for a duck and goose breeding
grounds was now at the $1,440

mark,
home that unless at least $200 was
found by March 1 to pay on back
taxes, the present lease could be
taken away from the club and sold
at public auction, “Before I would
see this happen,” he commented,
“I will personally borrow the mo-
ney.”

It is spirit such aos this that
keeps sportsmanship alive through-
out this vast and wonderful coun-
try of ours, It is the same spirit

After the installation ceremo-

Under the leadership of Frank
Shannon of Riondel, who has chalr-
ed the Duck Lake committee for
some years, that assures the eyent-
ual success of this project, In my
estimation,

To those of you who are not
acquainted with the property in
question, it adjoins Duck Lake
near Creston and is right on the
interior flyway. It is land which
.is also in Creston Reclamation and
Diking Area, but which has been
fought for so hard by your Rod
and Gun’ Clubs, to have it ‘set
aside as a resting ground for mi-
Rrating water fowl and a nesting
ground, as well. Those of you who
have gone through there when the
spring migration is on will under-
stand the reason for. the ‘club's
efforts, Those of you you have
never seen this migration in pro-
gress make it a point next spring,
and in the meantime, back a most
worthwhile effort to save this land
for the: purpose to which it is
most suited,

Personally £ cannot under-
stand why the Fish and Game
Club of this province should have
to fight so hard for a'smail piece
of poor farming land that the pro-
vinclal government should step out
and procure for the betterment of
the province, particularly now that
the Columbia dams are virtually
assured and we will be losing. the
Duncan marshes, which have been
the natural habitat for water fowl
for years.
~ Spots like Duck Lake should
not only be set aside by the go-
vernment to compensate for losses
such as the Duncan marshes, but,
every effort should be made to im-
prove on these areas, if possible,
to increase their potential as breed-
ing grounds for water fowl and the
natural enjoyment of our citizens.

A resolution of the Castlegar
Club to the ‘effect that the area
known formerly as the. Elk. Valley
Game Reserve and' which: was
‘opened to public hunting last fall,
be set aside for the use of Cana-
dian citizens only. That is, that
no guiding licences be issued for
any part of this land i

Member for Prin-
ce, Rupert, Wil-

Giected to “be the Speaker of the
House.

Mr, Murray has had a lot of
experlence in our House and his
election was highly approved by
all Members of the ‘House. I was,
as well, pleased to see a young
man appointed as- the Deputy
Speaker, being my friend, William
Speare, from the Cariboo riding.

I spoke in the Debate on Fri-
day, January 24th, and was pleased
to sec that my remarks were well
covered in the Press and on the
Radio.

Up to this date the main items
of debate seem to have been con-
verning the Columbia River Deve-
lopment, the Socinl Welfare sit-
uation within the Province and
the proposed new Bank.

With the signing of the Colum-
bia River Protocol Agreement a
new spirit of urgency seems to
have permeated the Legislature.
During the week a new Gasoline

Canada produced a record 12,-
300,000 tons of wood pulp in 1983,
president R. M, Fowler of the Ca-
nadian pulp and Paper association
has’ announced. ;

Mr, Fowler sald in his annual
roport to the association that this
figure represented one-sixth of
world ouput last year and a 3 per’
cent increase over Canadian pro-.
duction’ in. 1062, ..

Of ‘the record . Canadian - pro-
duction in. 1663, about 9,000,000
tons were converted to paper ‘and
Paperboard in domestic mills, the
rest was shipped as pulp. °

However, production of news-
print was. down slightly from the
previous year.

Mr, Fowler said this was main-
ly because of long strikes at.a
number of newspapers in the Uni-
ted States that cost Canadian mills
sales of about 200,000 tons. :

He said exports of chemical
pulp increased markedly to 250,000
tons in 1963, reflecting ‘‘a‘ pro-
nounced rise in the demand for pa-
per and paperboard, both in North
America and abroad.”

Some 1,500 delegates from
across Canada attended the annual
meetings of: the ‘pulp’ and paper.
association and of its technical see-
lion in Montreal,

Mr. Fowler. said the Canadian
pulp and paper industry exported
about four-fifths of its total pro-
duction in 1963, as usual, and these

Cracking Plant worth
ly one and a half millions of dol-
lars was announced and it was sta-
ted that this would be constructed
in the North Peace area this year.

In the Legislature yesterday
another announcement, concerning
the construction of a Glass Factory
being constructed in the Fraser
Valley, ‘was made ‘and it seems,
therefore, that British .Columbia
is facing a banner year. qj

Regarding Social Welfare, I
was surprised to hear the Hon, P.
A. Gaglardi advise the House that
we have now reached the position
where We are spending in excess of
one million dollars per week on
Welfare in this Province.

While there may be a few iso-
lated cases of abuse, its seems
to me that the» Government ‘is
aware of the problem and is mak-

has to pass through the .B.C. fed-
eration and be passed on the con-
vention floor next spring before it
will be passed on: to ‘government
for action. If and when it becomes
law it will ‘be another step by
progressive. sportsmen through ‘a
progressive government to assure
that there will be wilderness areas
set aside for the enjoyment of
future generations.

Closer to home, the Castlegar
Pistol Club held their annual meet-
ing and elected Geoff Schlattner
as president, Aubrey Leverage as
vice-president, Ray Lee as secret-
ary-treasurer and Joe Fodor, Geo-
rge Kardash and Bob Ayers as
directors. The club intends to try
te procure indoor ranges. for win-
ter use if at all possible and ex-
pressed their intention to go ahead
as quickly as possible to build their
outdoor range on the Castlegar
Sportsmen Club’s property as soon
as is physically possible.

Indian Authority
Speaks at NDU

Oue of the greatest living
authorities on Indian culture and
history, Mrs. Ethel Brant Monture,
will appear tonight. on: the “Con-
temporary ’64” public lecture pro-
gram of Notre Dame University of
Nelson.

A great-great-grand-daughter of
Chief Joseph Brant of the Six Na-
tions, Mrs. Monture will speak on
the life and work of Pauline John-
son to whom she was related. She
will illustrate her lecture with
examples from the work of the fa-

Banke hae been met with great ap-
Probation from all sectors of the
Province. During: the ‘Debate ‘the
-Hon, Leslie‘ Peterson, the Mini-
ster of Labor, dealt at great length
with the Labor: situation in the
Province during the last year.

He advised that the lost time
due to’ industrial strife was the
lowest since 1949, He stated that
there had been 601° certifications
| seanted. during the year and this
was the highest“ in the last ten
years, He further advised that Un-
ion memberships had. swelled by
5,000 during the last year. I was
Pleased to note that he stated that,
of fifty-seven disputes referred
for arbitration, fifty-three had been
settled,

I was rather surprised to hear
the Member for Grand-Forks-
Greenwood state yesterday that the
Department of Highways. was
wrong in opening Highways pre-
maturely and that the Salmo-Cres-
ton Highway was not being kept
up. irs
From my. experierce, the De-
partment of Highways has been do-
ing an excellent job in maintain-
ing the Salmo-Creston Highway. in
spite of very difficult conditions
and that the Cascade-Kinnaird
link has been kept in first class
condition.

Tam very pleased that the De-
partment of Highways, in accord-
ance with the wishes of the peo-
plé of the Rossland-Trail ‘riding,
opened this highway at'the earliest
possible moment.
