Com public interest is best served by system which pro tects individual freedoms is sound There has to be incentives to those initiative and hard workd necessary to maintain and increase productivity at high level to ensure good economic con ditions for people generally The Chamber of Commerce is cer tainly far from alone in feeling that much of the current economic ills fired by inflation are attributable in large part to too much ment administrations living eyond their means and increasing taxes and costs which is undermining the well being of the productive sector merce that the who

financing which increases public debt and carrying charges for taxpayers to carry It is essential that the money ply should match the trend of the economy The Chamber further be lieves labor should be

yright Registratio Number 203815 register 61 temp ted to end the anti bilingualism strike Personally my feelings are that we will continue to have problems until such time as we come to the realization whether we like it or not that Canada IS composed of two founding nations The English may have beaten the French way back in 1763 but there is no way that we are ever going to eradicate the French language from our Canadian heritage However am not so much concemed about the English and the French issue at air ports Those problems have way of sorting themselves out soonerorlater Regrettably there seems to be the unfortunate necessny that people must strike ministers must reSign and heads get banged together before such matters can be resolved There is however third language used at air rts which feel is far more istur bing and far more important an issue than either English or French In my opinion the people of this country should stand up and be counted and if going on strike is necessary then go on Bl BLE THUUGHT The nest need of the chun ch ay is to have an old fashioned famll reunion with Jesus at thehoa of the table am the bread of life Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness and are dead This to the bread which coined down from heaven that man may eat thereof and not John Oz There is no hunger like soul hunger and there is nothing that will satisfy it but the Saviour Come and dine the Master callethcome and dine strike we should against the use of the third language The third language is used by all public address announcers and is called Snargeiese For example You are stan ding in the concourse of Toronto International Airport waiting for an announcement that your plane is ready for loading You would like to be able to answer the first call in order to get nice seat by window and not overlooking wing where it is impossible for you to see the ground without looking back ward Suddenly you hear the an nouncer Flight snargeldey een departing for Squiglo is now in the process of boarding This will be the only call Needless to say an an nouncement like that can leave you somewhat shaken and distraught Were they calling your lane Who should you ask here should you ask Does anybody know Does anybody care Or have you ever had the discomforting feeling when the third language is utilized to page somebody It sounds something like this Would Mr Str frum imm oglo Grum lease call your offham iatelv The culpability of the an nouncer is obvious in that he or she will repeat the an nouncement using the exact same inflexion Nobody knows for sure who it is that was paged and where it isheshould cal You are thus left in paralytic state wondering whether to board your plane should you have been fortunate en to have found the boar ding ocation or whether to call your home your office or your Great Aunt Susan As far as am concerned itis only the third language at air ports that presents problem How canvassing for the By

News Service When Canadas security ex perts in the RCMP and our Ar med Force wanted check list of world terrorists who might attack the Olympics they went to the Israeli intelligence ser vices When Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin described the Entebbe Raid this former ma jor general of the Israeli Army also calmly revealed the name of the head of the terrorist team in Uganda and the location of major Palestinian hijackers unit in Somalia When the Israeli commando units landed in Uganda from three Americanbuilt C130 Her cules jet transports they knew exactly where to go Israel dur ing an earlier time of friendship CAN ADAS STORY Former planters were sympathetic By BOB BOWMAN Although Nova Scotia did not join the rebel states in the American Revolutionary War there was great deal of sym thy and support for them any people in Nova Sootia were former planters from New En and who had taken over the ends of the Acadians after they were expelled in 1755 few Nova Sections tried to foment rebellion there Most notable were Jonathan Eddy and John Allen They tried to capture Fort Cumberland but weredefeated Allen was former member of the legislature and suggested to the Americans that they should ca ture villages throughout colony by sen diqgsmall boots up the rivers is plan proved to be very effective and Pictou Canso Cornwallis Annapolis Royal and Lunenburg were amon the places raided and plun with Uganda had built the air port terminal These and other littleknown factors have been made public in the latest and most spectacu lar of the many commando op erations on sea as well as land which Israel has per formed with stunning success since the formation of that countr in 1948 Unti the Entebbe raid Is raels unexcelled rformance in these swift and rilliant ma noeuvres rested on the escape of five 240ton Frenchbuilt un boats from shipyard at er bourg in 1970 Gen de Gaulle had cut off French arms shipments to Is rael even though an order of five badlyneeded missile equi ped gunboats was about conc uded Against the same kind of odds The big ships of the Royal Navy were not able to deal with the American mosquito fleet because the water was too shal low However the raids backfired Gradually sympathetic Nova Sections became hostile to the Americans and organized their own fleet to deal with them They armed ships of 50 tons and sent them to patrol the coastal waters In 1778 ships such as Loyal Nova Scotian Revenge Buchran and Insulter brought American raiders into Halifax as prizes They were sold to the highet bidders and realized great deal of money There were number of stir ring batties One took ace July to 1W8 when the nva Scotia ship Resolution met the American raider Viper off Hali fax Both sides suf ered heavy osses also be good spot to house the Chamber of Commerce with an office full of information for anyone who wanted to take the trouble find out thln about our fair clty and earl accessible to tourists Thlii would put Barrle on the map like nothing ever did before Most tourists and cottagers and holldayers want to know ubout the area the are in and why shouldnt ey be in terested in the most exciting cl ly in Canada Getting back to financing Some of the people can tacted reminded me of our an nual church meeting When asking for hands rulsod vote on an issue the men look around first to see if their wives have hands up or down It was like the story about the Irishman that landed in Canada If you have govern ment here Im ailin it at sea which the Entebbe raid ers faced on land the gunboat crews pledged to sea trials in Cherbourg Harbor and not to venture further sneaked the vi tal naval ships out of French waters and through the length of the Mediterranean AGAINST GREAT ODDS Arrayed against them were the many Soviet warships in that elongated sea mum with the latest radar the ch Mediterranean fleet and any number of hostile merchant ships from Arab nations in the region The Hercules jet transports which flew few days ago like the gunboats which made it un scathed to Haifa escaped all kinds of sophisticated enemy radar The rejoicin festivities and prayers rais up in January 1970 inTel Aviv had not been exceeded until few days ago when the airborne commando team brought the Israeli hos tages home The uick wellorganized tacticallyperfect commando raid has been feature of the Israeli military since before in ndence historic and continuing reason for them is Israels iso lation in the Middle East totally surrounded by enemies tiny nation often in need of inter national support when it is not forthcomin The Israe commando raid is the most obvious expression of country which has had to maintain garrison society lin ce its formation and where the swift sharp stroke rather than traditional war must have the same or greater effect Take the equallyswift com mando raid on the Beirut Inter national Ai tin late Decem ber 1963 ithin minutes it had destroyed about 702a cent of the Middle East iriines Lebanons international air carrierAIRPORT RETAIJATION The reason was to retaliate for the machinegun assault by El Fatah terrorists on In El Al Boeing 700 at Athens airport week earlier REASONS VARIED The reasons for nonoupport were varied But the only valid one was concern about tax burden to the city This is definitely not so It will not be tax load The story behind this is lengthy to relate but can be ob tained from the FOF Any of the merchants called on could have given up one or five and never missed it Its tax exemption anyway Lets look at it from finan cial point of view from the donor It comes off your tax im mediately For those who want to save their money for somebody to fight over well it wont be very exeitlng limit after the federal government gets its succession tax We have individuals and cor porations which could fund the 11 SUN srael master of the commando raid Israel could not afford to go to war against Lebanim even though it was being constantly assaulted by Palestinian terror ist outfits based there Such war might bring in the Syrians implacable foe of Is rael and being reamed at that point with new Soviet battle tanks and the new MigZl jet fighter The record of such Israeli raids goes back to the days of the War of Liberation against the Arabs and the time of the Haganah the paramilitary or ganization of the late 403 from which the Israel Army emerged During that 1948 Arablsraeli War the Israelis set so called film corn to of all things ilm about the Royal New Zealand Air Force in the Second World War To make it authentic the Is raeli film company purchased four Bristol Beaufighters and Mosquito on the understanding they would not be flown out of Britain few days later they all Ian ded in Jewish territory in Palestine as rt of desperate effort to buid an air force to combat the Arab air power based on British Spitfires and Hurricanes sold openly to the Egy tians after the Second Wdeu Understandany the Israelis have kept silent about the kind of structure and the sort of leaders assigned over the years tosuch commando units SECRET SELECT MEN Basically they are picked from an amalgam of military talent using IFloris developed by Israels itary intelligence and CIAstyle civilian in telligence gathering Brigadier Dan Shomron commander of the Entebbe commando unit is new wave 39 yearold officer too young for the first ArabIsraeli War but veteran of the other three 1956 I967 and 1973 Continuity of technique and officers in command also play rt in what will continue to be raels permanent commando operations aminotmiuit We also have lot of people who could throw in $1000 and notmissit But that wouldnt be alto ether fair to the rest of the pew in Barrie are definiwa going to have the

persuade him not be Businessmen in Canada have nofriends They are seen as pariahs milking the rest of us for everything we have and givuig nothing back On this page there is an Ex aminer Forum which goes on about the difficulties raising funds for Barries White Elephant the Fireball It is thinlyveiled attack xi the business community of Bar rie for not so porting the Fireball financial The author of the Forum fundraiser for the Fireball was apparently turned down by the merchants and busi nessmen he visited when he asked for money The orin valid reason for businessman saying No says the fundraiser is the tax ques tion lAnd despite the protesta tions of everyone involved with the Fireball there cant be sane person past the age of ma jority who doesnt know that one day somehmv tax dollars will gotothe Fireball The merchants the fund raiser called on could have spared $1 or Without even missingit That attitude that iner chants and busmessmen have all kinds of money is nonsense No businessman no mer chant is in business to make mone togiveaway that is what the Fireball is asking merchants and businessmen todo Lets be quite clear about that quite blunt about it you to give it money You will get nothing in return for your money Absolutely nothing But we all know merchants The Fireball wants and businessmen have that money arwnd and are usi waiting for an opprxtunuy lo
