With hel from the government to reduce oubledigit inflation And the city has cut back on its We know this is roads programs But really Bayfield Street is disaster area There are too many vehicles using it expecially on Saturdays Plans have kicked around for some time to extend Toronto Street over Highway 400 That would help and egress problem for folks wan ting to shop at the malls Better access off St Vincent Street could carry lot of traffic to the other side One thing almost as sure as city solve an access taxes going up every year is that traffic congestion on Bayfield will not

the surprise decision by the North Koreans to drop their demand for Korean debate at this session of the UN General Assembly Their action removed from an already crowded agenda thorny issue which over the years produced some of the most acrimonious debates held in the Assembly chamber Its removal permits the Assembly to concentrate on the more im mediate issues arising in south ern Africa The North

director of CSIROs mineral research laboratories said this is where the doubt exists One has to be cautious because sometimes thermal ef ficiencies do not scale up he said What you do on small scale rig is not necessarily duplicated in large commercial plants Pyrolysis is heating coal in an inert atmosphere to drive off votatile matter as gas Part of this gas is condensed into tar which can be treated to produce gasoline or light fuel oils Surplus gases can be recycled to feed the process The residual product is char Even the char is useful for generation of electricity Bradshaw said In fact the amount of char the process produces provides one problem for the future there will be so much char we will have to find new uses for it It will be possible to convert existing power generating plan ts to char but their consumption would be insufficient to con sumeitall Bradshaw said flash pyrolysis if successful would be only one of the many measures needed to offset dwindling supplies of oil It might provide five or 10 per cent of Australias liquid fuel requirements Even so this could be significant con tribution toAustralias energy needs in the light of rising im port prices and dwindling oil reserves Flash pyrolysis could also be useful to other countries which have suitable coal resources or countries which are able to im port the right type of coal Bradshaw said research into pyrolysis is going on in the United States but its aims and line of research are different The United States has great deal of coal with high sulphur content and the first aim of their research is to over come this problem so the coal can be used for power generation heifers as ninth annual Innisfil school fair takes place Cpl Ralph Thompson of Sanford Street receives Canadian

no explanation for their deci sion Diplomatic sources sug gested they had concluded that with the US in the middle of presidential election campaign this is not good year to pro voke major debate on the Ko reanissue further suggestion is that the North Koreans may have come to believe they might be able to get better deal in an eventual Korean settlement from an administration headed by Democratic presidential candidate Jimmy Carter than from Republican President Gerald Ford assuming Carter wins the Nov election Informed sources said the North Koreans had taken head count based on develop ments at the nonaligned con ference and found that their resolution would draw five or six fewer votes than it did last year This would amount to psychological defeat which they would prefer to avoid Sheep ranching started big By BOB BOWMAN Earlier this week story about the great explorer Robert Campbell mentioned his first job in Canada It was to travel from Red River to Kentucky to get sheep for the Hudsons Bay Companys experimental farm He managed to buy 1370 sheep and herd them to Red River but only 250 of them survived the journey Calgary ranchers dm better 50 years later Although the economy of the area was based on horses and cattle in those days it was decided that sheep raising could also be profitable The British American Ranch managed by Kerfoot ar ranged to buy 8000 sheep in Montana and they were herded to the Elbow River on Sept 24 1884 They had travelled about six miles day practically without loss Calgary Herald reporter described them as being as fat as butter The problem was to get them across the river but the sheep solved it themselves or perhaps with some prodding They swam across few weeks later they were joined by 200 rams imported from Britain and the huge flock prospered One year later about 50000 pounds of wool were shipped to Montreal However the development of sheep raising was not pular with cattlemen genera ly and some of them took steps to make life miserable for shep herds and their flocks Another danger was prairie fires which destroyed some of the sheep Oil was almost Unheard of in Alberta in those days although Kootenai Brown collected some Excuse me sir Well have to inspect your friends luggage FROM PARLIAMENT HILL Liberals on election trail to beat that terrible 29 By STEWART MacLEOI Ottawa Bureau Thomson News Service Well Prime Minister Trudeau and his cabinet didnt take long to get out on the hustings after concluding that Canadians dont understand the governments policies This conclusion had been reached in general sense af ter the cabinet spent eight hours in country ouse star ing at public opinion poll which showed that Liberal pop ularity had plummeted to 29 per cent We are obviously not doing good job of explaining our pol icies said Prime Minister Trudeau later We are going to have to go out and make sure Canadians are understanding what we are trying to do And since the meeting was unable to isolate one single rea son for the current discontent it was decided that all major policy areas required bit of reselling It is amazing just how quickly ministers can re spond to suggestions like this from the prime minister Within days Mr Trudeau himself was touring the Mari times listening to beefs and discussing regional policies Science Minister Hugh Faulkner was in Calgary delivering speech on bilingualism that had echos of 1969 and Labor Minister John Munro was in Vancouver going back to square one on the THE WORLD TODAY Zagreb disaster in perspective By JOHN IIARBRON Foreign Affairs Analyst Thomson News Service The headon midair crash at 30000 feet between British Trident jet and Yugoslav DC over Zagreb is the one in ten million chance of that kind of air crash which finally took place The reason given has to do with language usage Appar ently one of the Yugoslav con trollers in the Zagreb airport tried to talk down the British Trident pilot in SerboCroat language he did not un crude in the Waterton area in 1886 He used it to grease ma chinery on his ranch An oil well was drilled there in 1902 but soon petered out Turner Valley operations did not begin until

that the proposed recreational haven might remain dream on drawing board The province wants 1300 acres in Lobo and Delaware townships near this community just west of London It has got ten only 187

Antoni former London business executive who has built home he says is wor th $300000 on his lot on the edge of the designated park zone The price tag is $500000 if the government wants to buy it But dont think they will derstand Well you guessed it The or ganizations in Canada opposed to two languagts in our air traf fic control rations are wait ing eagerly or confirmation of this fact as ammunition in their fight to remove French from Canadian air space The two major organizations in this country who say French must go in air traffic rocedure because they claim Anglish is the lingua franca of the worlds airports are the Canadian Air Line Pilots Association CALPA and the Canadian Air Traffic Control Association CACA Mr Roger BurgessWebb CALPA spokesman hs said obviously it the Zagreb dis aster has possible application here if the facts of the first re port are confirmed Now most of the worlds air line tragedies from year to year have not been the result of lan guage misinterpretations as may be blatantly the case in the Zagreb disaster These are listed annually in Britains prestigious Flight magazine as aircraft failure human error mainly by pilots adverse weather conditions collisions for other reasons than language At Frances Orly and Charles de Gaulle airports near Paris French is often used to talk down international flights since many European pilots in air lines using these airports like Sabena Lufthansa SAS French even if members our CALPA in an officially bilingual country cant or wont The fact is almost all major ports of entry for international carriers are used for domestic air Operations including Zagreb Buenos Aires Argentinas capital is served by two air ports These are Ezeize the in ternational facility which is used by our CP Airlines and the municipal airport in the centre of that large city The air space of both over laps in terms of some of the WE WANT YOUR OPINION Letters submitted for publication must be

in Mr Trudeaus office All the min isters will be participating and we will be going right back to thefoundationo ourpolicies In Calgary Mr Faulkner re ferred to terrible lack of ac curate information about bili ngualism and he did acknowl edge that the federal govern ment must bear some re sponsibility for this Actually it bears most of the responsibility but there is no point quibbling Basically the minister delivered firstclass speech There is little comfort in the flight paths which foreign car riers and domestic aircraft ar riving in the city often have to take So in Ezeize much Spanish is used and has to be accepted by the pilots of international air lines They dont have any al temativc The same is true of most ma jor air rts in Spain major venue or forei ntourists arriv ing by air Bil a0 is one of the major domestic airports of nor them Spain But it also services Britain and Western Europe with daily international flights The same is true of Zagreb which is receiving more and more foreign tours but is also major domestic airport linked to other Yugoslav cities like Belgrade the national capital The federal transport depart ment is trying to settle for French usage in restricted number of Quebec airports in effect use of the official lan guage in the same kind of do mestic operations associated with international ones which CALPA members must accept abroad Except in this country we have two official languages and this does admittedly coni plicate the issue It is already made com lex by the historic refusal Englishspeaking professionals includin airline pilots to be bilingual ere the profession would be better ser ved This more than technical air poblems is the underlying issue II 010 63 lrlhhilvbutlitflI tintit THE PICK OF PUNCH it fact that Mr Faulkner had to deliver this basic lecture on bilingualism full seven years after passage of the Official Languages Act it was all vint age 1969 material You hear from time to time people say the Trudeau government is ramming Fren ch down my throat May say bluntly that that is rubbish And he used other wellWom phrases that obviously didnt make the necessary impact when coined originally recall hearing once before that Quebecer visiting the West does not expect to buy stamps in French everywhere he goes But Mr Faulkner perhaps de livered the most com prehensive statement on ilingualism since the Act was passed And there will be no turning back he said separation and assimilation are not part of our political vo cabulary And in Vancouver the ex planations by Mr Munro were even more basic The antiinflation program will be one year old in little over three weeks he told his class of Rotarians dont know whether anybodys going to bake cake but do believe that Canadians are better off than we were year ago We have good reason for quiet celebration as the anniversary approaches And speaking about recycling old phrases he explained that the program was the govem ment response to world wide inflationary trend and that the AntiInflation Board has by necessity been forced to administer some rough justice Since the program came in to effect weve made some en couragin improvements in price leve Prices are still go ing up but not as fast as year ago imagine both speeches will form foundations for other min isterial offerings And while the ministeis are doing to selling there are indications that Mr Trudeau will be listeningto other people If spent all my time ex pllaining our policies wouldnt ve time to listen to their the publics concerns he said in Charlottetown He seemed im pressed with what he had lear ned about regional trans portation policies His aides say he will be un dertaking many more trips of this nature as art of the pro am to rebuil sagging party ortunes Since the next eneral elec tion is not expecte before 1978 we could be in for long cam paign It just says the View from this point In brought to you courtesy of Crudgwltli Rural District Council QUEENS PARK Have they won on disposables By DON OHEARN Queens Park Bureau Thomson News Service TORONTO Antipollution ists in Ontario will have offi cially won their sixyearold bottle battle Or will they The battle of course has been to have disposable bever age containers done away with in the province They havent fully succeeded in this of course But they have forced the government to put through regulations that en coura the use of refillables And is will be considered as having won the battle STORE PROBLEM The first stage of these regu lations goes into force Oct As of then retailers will have to pay 10 or 20 cents de nding on size for any refilla le bot tles returned to themprovided they have sold that same size and brand in the last six months This is great headache to storekeepers who now must set up bottleretum mechanism including storage space But the first big im ct will come next April when or every disposable can or glass con tainer carried on the shelves there will have to be match ing refillable and refundable YOUR BUSINESS Money growth spur to stocks By VINCENT EGAN Business and Consumer AffairsAnalyst Thomson News Service Only sli htly behind cue the stock mar et has begun to show its potential strength Few things in the investment field are as predictable as rally on the New York stock market just after Labor Day especially in leap yearthe time of presidential election campaign Since late last winter the stock market had been flat In recent days however stocks have broken out of their narrow trading range and the Dow Jones avera of 30 leading New York in ustrial stocks has advanced to its hi hest level since the peaks January 1973 As usual Wall Streets strength has an influence on other markets Canadian stocks have also turned somewhat fir mer in response to New Yorks lead And also as usual the experts offer variety of explanations for what appears to be new trend in the market The theoriststhose who base their opinions on reading of historical charts showing predictably repeated peaks and valleyssay that the current uptrend is normal cyclical movement whose time has come The fundamentalists 0n the other hand attribute the strength to the influence of number of current economic trends The most important to those trends influencing the stock market at the moment is prob BIBLE THOUGHT And ye will not come to me that ye might have life John 540 Simply stated we can and we must take the ste toward God Today set as de your reservaqu and turn back to Him He will not turn you away container Finally year from then there will be limits on the sizes that can be carried PUBLIC BUY To me the big question in this whole program is Will it work Aside from the retailers and what they might do and some brands it would seem may dis appear eventually with the pin on shelf space what is the public reaction going to be Is the customer going to out more for refillable bott es even though eventually he will be able to get the extra back in refund Even though the cost of the refillable will eventually be lower and it will be because the container cost will be less in todays convenience society it is hard to see good many people paying out an ex tra 60 cents on halfdozen car ton of small pop or $120 on large ones and then going to the bother of keeping and re turning them Perhaps they will They do it to large extent on beer now But certainly the seeing is go ing to be the believing And in any event we certainly are not going to see the end of disposables ably moneythe supply of it an thecostofborrowingit The monetary policy of the Ford administration in Wash ington has tended toward ease Money sup ly is growing little faster an interest ratzs are weakening slightly Such politically motivated changes in monetary policy are normal just before an election Heres how monetary polic makes itself felt in the market First it influences liquid ity or the amount of ready cash that people maintain People have what they regard as desirable level of mone holdings and they buy or sel stocks and other financial as sets in order to keep their liq uidity at that level Second it has an influence on the growth of Gross National Product and hence on corporate profits The publics spending goes up when peo le have ex cess cash down en they are squeezed Those fluctuations are mirrored in the output of the economy and the anticipa tion of corporate eamings which in turn affect the prices of stocks INTEREST RATES Third it influences interest rates When the money supply is increasing and interest rates go down for example investors alter correspondingly the value they place on divi ends To 11 lustrate company may maintain its dividend rate un changed but the market puts higher valuation on that divi dend flow when interest rates are going down That brin us to the int at which New ork and ot er ma jor stock markets are pulling in different directions Here in Canada the govern ments monetary authorities are resisting the tendency of in terest rates to decline since thats considered inflationary In the United Kingdom the Laboggovemment has ust in creas the minimum ending rate to 13 per cent from 115 per cent in an effort to restore in ternational confidence in the British economy
