VANCOUVER (CP) Five anti-

Dioxin traces found in milk

WASHINGTON (Reuter) Extremely low levels of cancer-causing dioxin may be found in milk stored in paper cartons, but the chemical traces pose an insignific risk to hu n health, the U.S, Food and Drug. Administration said .,

Further, U.S. paper manufacturers have pledged to change the way the cartons are made as soon as the necessary equipment can be put in place, so that they contribute essentially no dioxin to the milk, FDA Commissioner Frank Young said.

Bomb expodes near newspaper

BOGOTA (CP) — A bomb exploded early Saturday in a truck parked next to the plant of a Bogota newspaper that has openly opposed drug traffickers

Atleast one person was killed and more than 12 injured, news reports said

The bombing occurred outside El Espectador, the second-largest daily in Colombia. Its editor was assassinated by drug traffickers three yearsago

The Bogota radio station RCN quoted the Red Cross as saying one died

Chinese deaths ‘inevitable’

BEIJING (AFP) — The killing of innocent civilians when troops en- tered Beijing to crush student protests on June 3-4 was inevitable, said the general who commanded the operation

“It is hard to avoid some losses in such a military action,’’ Gen. Huang Dongjia wrote in Saturday’s edition of Liberation Army Daily, the official military newspaper

He acknowledged that on June 4, ‘some people who did not listen to warnings (to stay indoors) went into the streets, and that some were killed by mistake.””

The government says about 320 people, mostly civilians, died in what it calls the “putting down of the counter-revolutionary rebellion.”

4n a report issued Wednesday in London, Amnesty International estimated the toll at 1,300 or more

Rabies used in threat

LONDON (Reuter). — Extortionists have threatened to unleash animals injected with rabies across Britain unless they are paid the equivalent of about $3.5 million Cdn, police said.

Police did not rule out a hoax, but a special unit of the serious crimes squad was dealing with the case. The deadly virus is almost unknown in Britain, which has strict quarantine rules

The elaborate rabies plan was outlined in a letter stuffed in a mailbox in London’s exclusive Park Lane after a phone call to police.

*«If the money was not paid, an unspecified number of animals injec ted with rabies would be released at unspecified points around Britain,”’ a police spokesman said.

Groups want tighter control

NAIROBI (Reuter-CP) — Environmental groups at a United Nations conference have pledged to increase pressure on western coun- tries to impose tighter controls on substances harmful to Earth’s protec- tive ozone layer.

“So far only a minority of governments support the stringent proposals. It’s very distressing to us,"” David Doniger, a lawyer with the Washington-based Natural Resources Defence Council, said in an inter- view

Scientists, government representatives and environmental experts opened a 10-day conference here Wednesday to devise amendments to a 1987 treaty on ozone depletion.

Forty-three countries ratified the 1987 Montreal Protocol to limit the use of chlorofluorocarbons after scientists warned CFCs were destroying the atmosphere’s ozone layer, which filters out the sun’s harmful ultraviolet rays.

Police arrest 400 people

CAPE TOWN (CP) — South African police and anti-government demonstrators clashed in central Cape Town Saturday and more than 400 people, including anti-apartheid cleric Allan Boesak, were detained.

Witnesses said police moved in on the demonstrators, protesting at next week's race-based general electons, outside St. George's Anglican Cathedral close to the South African parliament

Bakker humiliated in jail

BUTNER, N.C. (AP) Tammy Faye Bakker says she can’t under: stand why the government imprisoned and humiliated her TV evangelist husband, whose psychiatric episode she blames on an allergic reaction to medicine.

‘They strip-searched him in front of a room full of men and threw him in a jail cell,"” Mrs. Bakker said after a six-hour meeting with her husband, PTL founder Jim Bakker.

“Jim said it was the most humiliating thing he had ever been through.”’

U.S. District Judge Robert Potter ordered Bakker to the Federal Correctional Institution at Butner for psychiatric evaluation after the evangelist broke down on Thursday in the fourth day of his fraud and conspiracy trail in Charlotte

Nutrition risk in Victoria

VICTORIA (CP) Children in Victoria and its suburbs are at greater risk to have poor nutrition than any other urban area in British Columbia, says the health officer of the Capital regional district

The risk is greater because health officials don't have the staff to teach proper eating habits either to parents or to school children, Dr Shaun Peck said

The district has the number of nutritionists based on population of all urban health units in the province, says a report to be considered Wednesday by the district’s community health committee.

Gas pipeline may go ahead

AMICTORIA (CP) — The Vancouver Island natural gas pipeline project may get the final go-ahead from the B.C. government early next week

Premier Bill Vander Zalm and Energy Minister Jack Davis have scheduled a news conference for Tuesday morning in Nanaimo, where they are expected to issue an energy project certificate for the $485-million project

The pipeline is slated to carry natural gas from the mainland to Van- couver Island

Tax unfair to soft drinks

TORONTO (CP) — The proposed goods and services tax is unfair because it is imposed on soft drinks, but not on such competing beverages as coffee and iced tea

All non-alcoholic drinks should be treated the same, says a brief sent Friday to the House of Commons finance committee by the Canadian Soft Drink Association

“To treat competing beverages differently under the tax regime is un fair and creates an uneven playing field in the marketplace, as well as making it confusing to the consumer,” says the brief

Vancouver abortion clinic during a July protest were sentenced Friday in B.C. Supreme Court to three months in jail for criminal contempt of court

But Mr, Justice Kenneth Lysyk said the sentences would be-suspended if the five agreed no to go within one block of the clinic for the next year

The five are Dbnald Spratt, 37; Christina Hendrix, 58, both of Surrey; Hubertina Polfliet, 63; Frances Butt, 61, both of Richmond; and Robert Pickering, 32, of New Westminster

Immediately upon sentencing, deputies cleared the courtroom so the anti-abortionists could consult with their lawyer.

“They are praying about whether to sign the undertaking to stay away from the clinic,"’ said Charles Lugosi, lawyer for the five, said then. “It may be that some will go home and some will decide to stay in jail.”

Spratt, Butt and Pickering later signed the order and were released, Lugosi said Friday evening. Hendrix and Polfliet “were still praying” about what todo.

Lugosi said he did not know when Hendrix and Polfliet might reach a decision

The protesters were arrested July 8 for disobeying a court against barring access to the Everywoman’s Health Centre, the only private abortion clinic in British Columbia

Hendrix, who did not apply for bail, has been in jail since her arrest

During the blockade, Hendrix was chained by the neck toa piece of piping that other protesters said contained gasoline. When their biuff by callinga city works crew with a cutting torch, a key was produced from the crowd and Hendrix was freed. The piping contained concrete

**We are a society of bullies and but- chers,”’ said Spratt, an ordained minister who included dozens of biblical quotes in his 25-minute remark,

Lysyk warned the gallery, which in cluded about 50 supporters, to main. tain order after a burst of clapping

Prosecutor Lance Bernard asked that Lysyk impose a sentence in

keeping with the punish- ments imposed in the previous cases.

Hendricks and Spratt should receive greater penalties because they already were convicted of civil contempt in- volving the same injunctior’, Bernard said.

‘There was no value in jailing other wise model citizens for following their consciences in trying to stop abortion, Lugosi argued

On Thursday, Lysyk expressed regret at the provincial attorney- general’s failure to respond to a con.

argument on behalf of five anti-abortionists.

Lysyk, although he rejected the con: stitutional argument, indicated the court \would have welcomed some response from the attorney-general on the protesters’ right-to-life sub: mission.

The judge noted that Bernard, in- vited to respond, advised the court he had been instructed by the attorney: general not to make a submission on the merits of Lugosi’s constitutional argument

Environment Minister Bruce Strachan, ina letter to Kelowna Mayor Jim Stuart, said he is prepared to present an order-in-council to the legislature officially designating Ogopogoas ‘‘wildlife.””

“This is very, very good news,” Stuart said in Kelowna after receiving the minister's faxed letter

Stuart said the protection Strachan has promised would be extended under the Wildlife Act

**Under the Wildlife Act we can prohibit any person from capturing, killing or even harassing the creature,”” provincial wildlife director Jim Walker said from Victoria

“Now we can protect the creature because we can puta total closure on its capture. It would be most exciting if it was some species not known before."”

Stuart, however, said he was distressed that the location of the recent alleged sighting of Ogopogo has been made public and he’s asked the RCMP to watch the area

VIDEO FOOTAGE

Car salesman Ken Chaplin, who has made a video of four alleged Ogopogo sightings, told reporters Thursday the location along the Lake Okanagan waterfront from where he observed the creature over a period of four days in July

“It’s unfortunate that the location is now public,”’ said Stuart. ‘I've asked the RCMP to watch out for possible problems on the lake and additional traffic along the shore.”"

Chaplin said Ogopogo’s so-called “feeding ground” is at the north end of Bear Creek Provincial Park

Chaplin said his parents saw the creature while they were walking along the beach. His father Clem saw it again the next morning. Chaplin says he has seen it five times while his daughter and father saw two of the creatures on one

Shead said discussing policies such as graduation requirements with a ministry committee known as the Principal Advisory Group over the past 2% years and teaching in different types of schools in the province have given him a broad base of experience which probably contributed to the ministry’s job offer

Shead said he is pleased with the new programs that were in- roduced while he was principal, including peer counselling and tutoring programs and a jour- nalism program that started this year

And he said a highlight of his time at Stanley Humphries was working with the parent group to build a “partnership” between parents and the school

Jack Closkey has moved from vice-principal to principal at the

school and Grant Lenarduzzi is now a full-time vice-principal

Shead said Closkey, been with SHSS for many years, and Lenarduzzi, who is relatively new to the school, will be a ‘good blend of youth and experience.””

SHSS is a strong school, Shead said, and the new teachers coming to the school to replace those on leaves and taking early retirement are bringing new energy and ideas tothe school

Shead’s departure and the ap- pointments of Closkey and Lenar- duzzi were announced last month by the school béard in a news release

Twelve Tofino-area residents went to jail last year and another 20 were fined for blocking logging activity in Sulphur Passage, located in the heart of Clayoqout Sound

and's struggles continue

The Sinixt/Arrow Lakes Band (in- terior Salish) is alive and well and defending the band’s ancestral burial grounds at Vallican,

On Aug. 26, we travelled to South Slocan to meet members of the band in an effort to find out first-hand their history, present situation and future aspirations. While there, Celia Gunn, co-ordinator of The Vallican Ar- chaeological Park Society, also con- tributed current, scientific and historical information.

We learned that 200 years ago, 85 per cent of the Lakes people died of diseases introduced by the arrival of the first white people. Most of the sur- vivors fled to the lower part of their territory

Then the 49th parallel was pushed through. They were told by gover nment officials to choose which side of

the border they wished to stay, This order meant nothing to them. Their territory was one, even though two- thirds was above the border (as we know it) and one-third below.

A few stayed in the Arrow Lakes area and were given Oatscott Reserve north of Edgewood on Lower Arrow Lake. In time, only a few elders remained there as the young moved

‘ross the late to Burton to work and school their children, The last elder, Annie Joseph, believing she was the last surviving band member, willed the Oatscott Reserve to the Okanagan In- dian Band. She died in 1953 or 1954 and in 1956 the reserve reverted back to the province, by order-in-council

The Sinixt/Arrow Lakes Band was arbitrarily declared extinct.

This extinction was proven incorrect in 1972 when J. Quintaskat, an elder of

Minister defends welfare letter

There has been a great deal of editorial comment on the letter I recen- tly sent to 49,000 employable income assistance recipients telling them that they will not receive another assistance cheque until they produce proof that they are looking for and have been unable to find work.

The general public (the taxpayers)

have responded very positively to this. _

Many people have told me personally t they support this approach »wever, editorial writers in some of the major newspapers seem to have missed the point. Even the major elec- tronic media have made a special effort todistort the value of the program Temporary assistance is intended to provide support for those who are out of work and who have exhausted all other sources of income. We make every effort to encourage people to get back into the work force as quickly as possible. To quote a Vancouver columnist, ‘“‘hand-ups are better than

hand-outs.””

his is what we are trying todo — to provide the assistance people need to become self-supporting. We will assist with transportation costs, work clothes, training and work experience And we will also keep the pressure on employable people to get them back to work.

I want to emphasize that my letter went only to singles and couples, without dependents, who ployable. 1 want to assure the elderly and people with disabilities that we will continue to assist them so that they can live independently.

I find it curious that the major media assume such an adversarial position whenever the government announces a worthwhile program. Maybe they see the need to play the role of the official opposition.

I would like to thank Helen Lee and her staff of dedicated volunteers for enabling the people of the West Kootenay to enjoy the consistently high quality of exhibits at the National Exhibition Centre.

the Arrow Lakes Band, came forward to the government in Victoria to ask “Why are there not any Arrow Lakes Band reserves in B.C.?””

No one has been able to answer.

In 1981, archeologists removed six bodies from the Vallican site to the Royal British Columbia Museum for age and dietary analysis. Some remains were dated as old as 2,000 years, others as recent as 200 years. Clearly, they had been using the site for along time.

At present, the Sinixt/Arrow Lakes Band has two struggles on its hands — band members want the remains being held in Victoria returned to them for proper reburial, and they want the bulldozers to stay off their ancestral site.

The Highways Ministry is currently interested in installing a new bridge and road at Vallican.

It is possible that people only have one life tolive. That life should be lived to the fullest. People should have the opportunity to feel good about them- selves, to feel they are accomplishing something even if it is only creating their own living.

This would start a chain reaction in their lives that would bring better and

thing. A person can be ‘‘just a waitress or a gas jockey,”* but their attitude can make them the ‘‘best’’ in their trade. Not only does this make them feel good about themselves but others notice — bosses don’t want to lose good dependable people, other job opportunities open ‘up, enthusiasm gets circulating in their system and they might train for a better paying job. Their work attitude will help them land that job. Good relationships can
