LS hance nr oe ap ge a pide Terrace down in donations he 1978 Christmas Seal ampaign has reached the halfway mark in its goal to raise $700,000, with Terrace having raised only $250 of a larget of $3,900, the British Columbia Lung Association reports, The actual dollars received are a little less than at the same time Inst year, but may be due in part to postal disruptions in early November when the cam- paign was launched reports ill King, president of the Associatlon. With all homes in British Columbia having now received Christmas Seals in their mail box, donations are beginning to pick up he says, and he is optimistic that the campaign goal will be reached. King also said that the recent change of name tothe British Columbia Lung Association — it was for- merly the British Columbia Tuberculosis-Christmas Seal Society — now indicates more accurately to the public the modern wider scope of the Association's work. With tuberculosis now’ a controllable disease, the present thrust of research funded by Christmas Seal dollars is centred on asthma, ehronie bronchitis and emphysema — the most rapidly growing group of aeeases in Canada today. It is perhaps not general known that an estimated rif million Canadians | suffer from some form of long ease. Christmas Seal dollars are used not only to support medical personne! but to assist with capital ex- penditures. The recent purchase of an” electron microscope for the Pulmonary Research Laboratory of St. Paul's Hospital altows Magnificativor slmost one million times, allowing researchers hitherto unavailable data. In cooperation with another agency, the purchase of a mobile lung function testing unit will lake a fully . equipped laboratory to the workplaces of British Columbia in the in- vestigation of occupational health hazards. The Christmas Seal committee chairman here is Mr. Alan Sandereott of 31 - 4619 Queensway Drive, Terrace.

Cousins hits air plan “The present Trudeau Bevernment's air policy has resulted in poor service at a high cost to the Canadian traveller,” complains Rod Cousins, the Progressive Conservative candidate for the federal riding of Skeena. The P.C. party's policy of encouraging more com- petition between national air carriers and increasing the number of routes available to regional carriers, is ex- tremely attractive to all Canadians, Cousins said. “Increasing the number of routes available to regional carriers would be of par- ticular benefit to us in Skeena riding where we are heavily dependent on air travel that is both costly and could stand general im- provement in service.” Place To Try?

This move toward more competition is not a statement of lack of con- fidence in Air Canada, states Cousins, but a belief in Air Canada’s ability to stand on its own feet in a competitive environment.
