board of directors was told the ser vices committee had met with the child abuse team the previous night The two rties agreed to form committee to prepare brief asking the pro Vince for money Marilyn Hamilton services committee chairman said the project would allow the team members to spend more time with families where child abuse is problem They could counsel parents and children more fr uently over longer riod time not just when ere is crisis shesaid At the moment they are able to give help onLy when an study explosive situation leinands it The project would also allow team members to provide some training to foster parents and staff who must cope with the abused child READING RESEARCH There would also be time for reading and research into related problems This project would have specific measurable aim such as lowerin the number of abused chil ren that come back into care after being returned to their own homes Mrs Hamilton said The ministry of community and social services has set aside $250000 for research into child abuse The local society is asking for funds to cover substantial protion of the three team members salaries and ex penses so they could lower their case loads to 10 to 15 from the current load of 35 This would allow them time to carry out the aims of the proect and allow the agency suf icient funds out of regular bud et to hire two more social wor ers to carry the extra caseloads Mrs Hamilton ex plained aimed at freeing the dowmrod den of the world from oppres sion is the most important event for Christians since the Protestant Reformation Liberation from economic and political oppression and the salvation traditionally taught by the church are two sides of the same coin you cant have one without the other he said He cited Christs own pro mise set the captives free in Luke 418 as the the Jesus manifesto You cant cant preach the Gospel without politics he said You cant preach the Gospel without setting the cap tives at liberty Its political from the beginning Western missionary work has historically gone hand in hand with Western political and economic domination Dr Powles said Whatever the subjective feelings of the missionaries they were also involved in total expansion of Western civilization which came at the countries of what we call the Third World as an invading power he said In China he said mission work advanced in the wake of treaties im sed by western powers an Bibles and tracts were often unloaded from one side of ship while opium which the British forced on the Chinese was unloaded on the other TIME TO STOP Now that Third World coun tries are struggling to escape the aftermath of colonialism he said it is time to stop sen ding western missionaries overseas and let native Chris tians run their own affairs We need to give churches in these countries chance to develop on their owu he said He said many denominations have already brought most of their missionaries home there are only 13 Canadian Anglican missionaries overseas at present while in the past there were often hundreds and others have been expelled by host countries because they are in the way With an end to traditional missionary activity he said TWO QUEBEC UNIVERSITIES 32000 students affected by strike MONTREAL CP At least 32000 students at two Quebec universities are without classes as their professors strike for

saulting police officer SOME HOLD CLASSES group of business profes sors who withdrew from the professors union for ideolo gical and professional reasons gave classes Monday but un ion spokesman said no classes were givenTuesday there remain number of avenues for action for churches in Canada and other wealthy countries Putting pressure on corpora tions to stop ex loitative policies in the Thir World is one way he said The whole of our capitalistic system today is based on an antiChristian assumption that we have right to rape the earth he said Working with theoppressed such as the native peoples in our own countries is another priority he said third avenue is financial assistance and moral support for liberation movements in Third World countries he said and he described the World Council of Churches decision The business professors pro tested what they said were the leftist political motivations of union organizers Union spokesman Michel van Schendel said crucial issue in the dispute is academic free dom for professors with the key factor being the powers of the studies commission con sultative body which examines giliestions of study and resear The professors want the ow
