turally unsound Shelburnc was one of about 200 communities told by the government the roofs of their arenas could collapse under the weight of snow The closing order has taken bevy toll of various

expected its membership to drop to about 73 by this spring from about 230 last year RESIDENTS ANGRY Many residents said in inter sive local councils for not tak ing action sooner to make the arena safe The design of the arena caused problems since it was built In 1955 repairs were needed and report in 1965 and another in 1970 warned that fur ther strengthening was needed The current plan calls for the town to construct an arena and an outdoor swimming pool at cost of about $210000 About $05000 has been raised Meanwhile the town of liar riston about 40 miles northwest of Waterloo is busy

for st office management and employees conflicts over automatln Canadas mail system were limited to di fercnces in attitude toward the countrys largest mechanized postal plant spokesman for the postmastergenerate department says Its real grabber most impressive while kesman for the Canadian Union of Iosta Workers CUPW says Its monster that would frighten you They are referring to windowless football fieldsized plant in Torontos suburban Missisaauga There are these issues at stake the unions right to negotiate technological change job security for workers whose duties are being phased out or changed and job surroundings or tlhose who run the machines or handle the mar Beyond the love or hate attitudes toward machines lies article 29 of the collective agreement signed last year by CUPW and former postmastergeneral Bryce Mackasey READY AND WAITING And behind the contract clause are the computers lettershaker machines conveyor belts optical character readers coding desks and lettersorting machines in the new automated postal plants To date there are fully or partially automated plants in dozen large anadlan cities and post office spokesman John McTa art says by 1980 there should be 30 such ants in 26 centres Mr McTaggart estimates that whenever the automation plans are fully im plementedfive to 10 years from now15 or 25 per cent of the billions of pieces of mail travelling the country still will be handled manually It is in the sorting process CUPW says that thousands of jobs will gradually be eliminated So far both sides agree that no one has been fired or laid off due to automation But CUPW is critical of the governments current practice of hiring only casual or tern rary workers who can be laid off as their jobs become obsolete FIXTURES FALL And the union wants other problems resolved well before machinery is installed and computers are programmed CUPW president Joe Davidson says the vibration of machinery in the Ottawa plant has caused light fixtures to fall from the ceiling And there are problems with heat and noise he said in an interview In the collective agreement the union agreed to the post office desire to phase jobs out through attrition However Mr Davidson said internal job changes are creating job security problems For example if manual sorter or bag handler applies for job on letter coding desk he is given 71 minute dexterity test anly one in three workers are passing the st If he fails the 712 minute test he doesnt get chance for the job Mr Davidson said But under our agreement he should be allowed up to six months to learn the job if he has seniority Mr Davidson said CUPW will take every legal means possible to get the government to negotiate technological change If that doesnt work he predicts locals
