dont want handouts froln government Right at the moment in fact there is one sector rhin it seems may be on the way to active resisting such assistance The ctoristhepulpand papcrindustry You may recall that short while ago Ontario Treasurer Frank Miller announced ill the house that he wanted to work out co opcratively with this industry some incentive program to help it meet capital costs in all environmental cleanup Now word out of the industry is that it is not at all sure it wants such help Behind the treasurers initiative was simple set of facts Last winter government study of the pulp and paper industry in the province was re leased This showed that therc was serious problem in the industry Industry STOnCl test for Miller Its ability to compete in world mainly North Americani markets was threatened This was largely because good share of its plant was old and its relative productivity was low Also thcrc wcrc big demands from the province itself for environmental irn provemcnl again from large share of its plant This meant that large new capital 111 vestmcnt would have to be made by the in dustry And at the time Millcr then minister of natural resourccs indicach he felt that if both problems were to be met some govern ment assistancc might bc called for NO LEANING Now severle months later and from his new position he has publicly announced all incentive program is dcsirablc And perhaps unexpectedly to him the in dustry has indicated it is not too sure ll wants to go along One point of doubt is the handout aspects Despite the common impression that in

treaty is the Nobel prize committee The committee which is appointed by the Norwegian parliament and deliberates in se cret made it clear in the citation for the 1978 peace prize that it was making the award to Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin and Egypts President Anwar Sadat as an en couragement to keep them on their torturous path to peace The two leaders once sworn enemies will share $173700 in this years prize part of the bequest set aside by dynamite millionaire Alfred Nobel on his death in 1896 But whether Nobel intended the peace prize to be used as lure is not clear As laid down in his will the prize was to go to the person who shall have done the most or the best work for fraternity among nations for the abolition or reduction of standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace congresses THREAT REMAINS Begin and Sadat although they are working on an agreement are still meeting stumbling blocks The threat of new Middle East conflict although reduced has by no means disappeared Begins recent hawkish statements on the future of Israeli settlements in the occupied territories and doubts expressed by some lsraeli leaders over the wisdom of with drawal from the Sinai show that the peace movement started year ago when Sadat made his breakthrough visit to Jerusalem still rests on fragile base The announcement of the award drew cynical snickelslike the New York wag who remarked that the two leaders were glvcn the prize jointly to stop them from fighting over it and scathing condemnation In Moscow the official news agency Tass called the award bad joke denouncing Begin as terrorist and Sadat as sellout It is not the first time that the peace prize committee has come under fire for its award In 1973 the prize was awarded jointly to Henry Kissinger then US secretary ofstate and Le Duc Tho of North Vietnam for their work ill ending the war in Southeast Asia As it turned out Le Duc declined the prize and the war went on for another two years In Klssingcrs case the announcelnent came bcforc memories of the infamous Christmas bombing of iianoi had faded and there was criticism of his selection as laureate III the Til years since the prize was in stituled it has been awarded 59 times There wcrc 19 years irl which no choice was made including the ca rly years of both world wars Sometimes the award seems to be made to acknowlcdgc good intention PEACE ELISIVE anadas Lester Pearson won it in 1957 for championing the idea of UN peacekeeping forces Subsequent experience has shown that forces can maintain truces but cant producc pca cc That fact is clear from the history of typrus whcrc UN peacekeepers have patrolled the dusty hills and villages for 14 ycars without getting peace pact between the opposing factions on the island There have bccn TN troops in the Middle East since 1956 111 one force or another without peace The IN groups have tended to step aside whcn conflicts break out and then move in to separate the weary combatants until the next round Of coursc the prize has also been used to rccognlzc those who have fought the good fight against hopeless odds Andrei Sakharov thc dissidcnt Soviet physicist and 1975

group of congressmen ill study published Sunday The study commissioned by congressmen who opposed the project also predicts that the dcal between Ford and Canada may have major impact on the incentives policies of govcrllmcnts at all levels The study prepared by the Northeast Midwcst Institute follows Fords acceptance of soomillion Canadian incentive to locatea new engine plant in the Windsor area About $40 million came from the federal govem ment The study says the subsidy amounts to $7410 per job compared with subsidy of $4103 per job in an agreement between the state of Pennsylvania and Volkswagen which may be the largest aggregate subsidy cvcr granted by ally unit of government or combination of governments in the United Stalcs It also notes that Canada has offered silnilar subsidy of between $55 million and $85 million to General Motors to locate new plant in Quebec The deal between anada and Ford added new element to thc subsidy game which pre viously had bccn played only by state provincial and local govcrnlncnts study savs In the conlcxt of LSCanadian relations thc magniludc and forln of the subsidy its di rcct intcrllalional character and the degree of
