of people Yet it wasnt the biggest seizure of its type in the province the begins to wonder just how widespread the problem is aan whetherenougli is being done to end it Its not clear at this time where the ltiittinguislieiie speed was destined for or more importantly whether these kind of drugs aregetting into the hands of young people The fact that the lit Il litirl llllgt operation under surveillance for some months may provide some answers So too should the trial of three men arrested and charged with the possession of narcotics for the purpose of rattitkiiig What is known is that this crime iiet one to underestimate Speed is killer drug one which has no place in society We dont want Siiiieoe children or any others sub jected to its ravages Were glad to see the police success in this raid The various forces should have full reign to work closely together to close down these clandestine operat ions The public can help by cooperating fully if they suspect thug operations in their area We would further encourage the ittiiiis those caught on hard drugs to come forward for Iltitlllltlil and to help stamp out the problem at its source Vigilance and action will driie hard drugs from Siiiicoe ounty Let the pusher beware Your business By VINCENT EGAN Business and onsumer Affairs Analyst Thomson New Service Theres good news for jobseekers in the forecasts for 1980 capital spending It appears that Canadian business and industry may be ready to break out of the relatively flat period of the past few years and step up the rate of spending on new plant and equipment by somewhat more than the anticipated inflation rate If that increase materializes it will open up new jobs in the sectors affected both short term jobs in the expansion phase and long term employment in the ongoing operation of the new facilities The economists at the Canadian imperial Bank of Commerce expect an increase of lit per cent in capital investment in Canada next year or five per cent after discounting for in flation which the bank predicts will be about eight per cent in 1980 Robert Fricker senior vicepresident of Dominion Bridge Co Ltd has forecast that is only slightly less optimistic At seminar on the business outlook sponsored by the Conference Board in Canada Fricker predicted that Canadas real gross capital spending would increase by 33 per cent in 1980 with the government sector remaining flat and the business sector spending 38 per cent more after discounting inflation UTILIZATION RATE major reason for the anticipated increase in spending on plant machinery and equip ment is that 1978 and 1979 have seen more intensive use of existing capacity in Canadas manufacturing industries In the three years 1975 to 1977 manufac turers on average were using only about 83 to 85 per cent of their capacity With that degree of underutilization there isnt much iri centive to expand capacity But since early 1978 the utilization rate has been growing and currently stands at about 89 per cent bockgrounder Business to spend more on growth lhat average tigure however disguises the fact that several major industries such as ruining wood products and chemicals are operating at less titan 80 per cent of their full capacity now Nevertheless the rate of increase in construction contract awards during the first seven months of 1979 can be counted upon to show up as growth in capital spending next year Construction contract awards in the Jariuarvauly period were up 49 per cent in the industrial sector 22 per cent in com mercial and 13 per cent in engineering In stitutional construction contracts were 18 per cent lower than in the 1979 period and residential five per cent Iowcr BEYOND lash Looking beyond littitt prospects for further growth By 1981 construction of the Alsands tar sands and old Lake and Lloydminster heavy oil plants should be in full swing preliminary work may have started on the Alaska Highway gas pipeline and coal and uranium mine development will have accelerated says the CommerceImperial economists Metal mining and smelting potash and asbestos mining wood and pulp and paper in dustries investment will also be strong as the resource industries gear up to meet ex panding world demands Frickcr of Dominion Bridge says that there may well be capital investment boom in the 19818 period with yearoveryear in creases it real business capital investment in the seven to to per cent range after 1981 He warns however of the danger of new inflationary spiral similar to that of the 1973 75 capital expansion boorii when productivity declined and the costs of labor supplies and equipment soared Unless can maintain effective control over construct ion and equipment costs during the next capital investment surge growth in our economy will be

MacLEOI Ottawa Bureau Thomson News Service Yes it must indeed be difficult for Social Credit Leader Fabien Roy to sustain any semblance of enthusiasm these days as he surveys the raggedly remnants of his party and wonders who will be next Next that is to jump to the Tories Roy the firebrand orator who ignited the Quebec National Assembly with his explosive outbursts on behalf of Quebec nationalism and who entered federal politics with the heady notion that 25 provincial candidates would ride in on his coattails has precious little to smile about these days Even that ini tial support he received from the Parti Quebecois provides few happy memories Roys biggest concern is maintaining fivemember caucus Already one of his party crossed the floor to join the ruling Conservatives and speculation continues to swirl that others will follow Richard Janelle elected as Social Credit MP in Lotbiniere decided to throw his support to the Conservatives after being lured into the winners camp by Senator Martial Asselin who promptly predicted that the Tories would have majority within six months Even with the election of Liberal Speaker four defections would be required to furnish this majority NOSILE It soon became evident that the on servatives were concentrating their recruiting drive on the five remaining Social Creditors all of them from Quebec where the Tories are desperately anxious to gain new members The pressures are very strong acknowledged beleagured Fabien Roy And in an obvious effort to rally his troops to new declaration of loyalty he proudly proclaimed that am

is getting bitter There has been curiosity as to just what the relationship between the two actually was since Davis launched his attack on energy prices and incidentally on Alberta bit more than month ago The attack was made with some heat It was particularly scathing about the rich Alberta Heritage Fund built on windfall revenues from oil In response Lougheed was also heated confrontation was apparent not only bet ween the two provinces but also personally between the two premiers FEED This however could all have been part of necessary political Charade At home in Ontario it was necessary for Davis to register strongly with the public that he was fighting drastic oil price iii creases year ago at this time he hadnt registered this or at least not stroneg enough and the opposition partic gained political mileage With energy and oil prices shaping up as probably the most important political issue of coming months Davis obviously had to strengthen his position ILL

to new session of Parliament And it must have been distressineg difficult for Mr Roy after his freewheeling two years as the sole representative of the Parti National Populairc in Quebec City Without any followers it isnt necessary to become bog gcd down with such irritating discussions Anyway after three hours of soul searching Roy emerged from caucus with five fingers in the air sort of bilingual way of explaining that this number of lls PETER LOIGHEED political charade What the actual increases will be is matter of bargaining between the federal government the provinces and Alberta As remained in thefotd But it one finger seemed bit wobbly it was understandable While Mr Roy was able to extract oaths of alle giance from three of his Social Credit disciples he was obviously having difficulty with the fourth BItil IIINTINU Arnidn Catiuctte the MP for Abitibi has been showing signs of wavering under Tory pressures and his last known declaration whatthat he is available if the price is right In other words he is holding out for more than seat on the Tory backbenches he wants cabinet job or something close to When member begins window shopping for the right price its very difficult for the leader of any splinter party to compete with big govennnent So all poor Fabien Roy could say is that wearediscussingit What constituents mayfecl about their duly elected Il negotiating for the best available party bargain is quite another matter havent discussed it with the people in Abi Ill but have discussed it with number of tirinariied lories who seem to think their recruiting officers are slightly bonkers for riling the ranks of Social Credit Mr Roy has already made it clear that barring some urr ctiiiiprchcrisible confrontation over principle the lories could count on voting support from the my band of Social Credit MP5 none of whom want another election So for all prac tical purimsos the government could operate as majorit government anyway Iiut instead of giving Fabien Roy an en couraging pat on the back they are kicking him in the shins And as his party threatens to disintegrate around him the sad Social tredit leader would appear to have little to look forward to except perhaps some day defeating the government that now is making his life so riiiscrablc DovisLougheed relations bitter in public at least part of this bargaining the Ontario

reaction Iiad to be that this wasjust charade lwo top politicians going through one of the necessary set plays of politics lint apparently this was not the case Davis it seems personally feels strongly on the issue and has scorn not only for the Al berta posit ion but for Lougheed personally Loughced evidently reciprocates In fact this should have been evident from his first reaction when he was derisive of Ontarios alleged greed toward resource revenues in the past In the charades and set plays of polit ics derision is not normally used it can cut too dccp Just what personal feud might mean in this case cant be said until events develop It is probably significant however that Alberta holds the heavy hand it has the oil Inc happy note for Ontario is that relations between Prime

Interpreting the news Misery rules in Cambodia By JOHN WARD UNITED NATIONS CPI Western coun tries including Canada may have voted to accept the Pol Pot government as the Cam bodian delegation at the UN but the vote does not imply approval Over the loud protests of the Soviet Union and Vietnam which was promoting its client the Heng Samrin government the credentials committee and then the General Assembly voted to accept the Pol Pot delegation Many delegates have severely criticized the Pol Pot regime which was driven from Phnom Penh by the Vietnamesebacked Peoples Reviolutionary Council last winter The brutality of the Pol Pot government has left thousands if not millions of Cam bodians dead or destitute The country mined by 10 years of war that included savage American bombing campaign is prostrate Canada has repeatedly condemned the regime for its cruelties as have other Western countries but when the matter came to vote there was little choice but to support Pol Pot despite the terrible record of human rights The more pressing problem for the UN is how to get enough aid into the stricken country to prevent starvation that could kill as much as half the population REACIIED
