LETTER UNANSWERED.

Herald stalf

An attempt to bring
several key local issues into
the provincial political
arena split Terrace council
down the middle at Mon-
day’s meeting. .

Ald.. Vie Jolliffe, after
criticizing Premier Bill
Bennett for his refusal to
respond to all the items in an
earlier letter from the
district, moved that council
write to individual ministers
and send copies to leaders of
all political parties. .

Jolliffe, while acting as
mayor last month, asked
Bennett “to follow through
with your government’s
announcements’® on the

establishment of the CNR
service depot, building of
the new health centre and
settlement of Nishga land
claims, .

Bennett’s letter men-

. tioned “matters discussed

in your letter," but made
only direct mention of the
land claims issue.

_ “Pm really disappointed
in. the premier,” Jolliffe
said, and suggested the only
way to draw attention to the
three issues would be to
write to individual members
and circulate copies.

Ald. Doug Mumford, Dave
Pease and Jack Talstra
yoted. against the motion,

Gillies said in a news
release he joins ‘other
members of the Progressive
Conservative party ‘‘in
calling for an economic
reconstruction of this
country.”

“Ag a start towards
rebuilding our crippled
economy, a new budget

should reduce. sales taxes |

‘and personal income taxes
for low and middle income
oups,’” he said.
“Tn addition, anew budget
should. provide investment

incentives to business to -

increase the supply of
tradeable goods where
Canada has an apparent
comparative . advantage.”
Gillies said inflation “will

-remain very highin the near

future, as increased energy
prices work through the
economy and as the impact
of currency devaluation
continues to be felt.”

Both Gillies and Ed
Broadbent, leader of the
New..Democratic Party,
predict unemployment will
get worse this winter.

Gillies sald Wednesday
the economy “has slipped
into a state of crisis and it is
too late now to avert dismal
economic performance this
winter.”

_After the latest jobless
figures’ were released,
Broadbent urged Commons
Speaker James Jerome to
recall Parliament im-
House ‘‘can turn its energy
to finding solutions to this
economic malaise.”
