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

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 ost one-

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- ing Plane to improve the situation.

was passed unanimously. It now 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-

of the new 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.
