Engineer calls for development of river basins ‘EY—The need for a con- gency which can plan jena co-ordinate the development of major B.C. river basins was outlined in ‘an address here last Wednesd: by C. W. Nash, the B.C. Power Commission’s load development director. Speaking to Rotary, Mr. Nash | recalled the destruction by the 1948 floods of Lower Mainland | communities and farmland, and pointed out that the Fraser River board recently recommen- ded combined operation of stor- age reservoirs for flood control and hydro-electric generation purposes. The Power Commission en; eer said that the Fraser Rive’ Board, established as a “crisis agency” designed to investigate flood hazards in the Fraser Basin, provided an outstanding | “| Mr. Craig. Tl companies which answered our example of co-ordination of effort by various levels of gov- |ermment but he expressed the view that the present institu- tional framework through which resources development is affected is probably inadequate to ensure implementation of the schemes proposed by the board. “The harnessing of our water resources is complicated by the multiplicity of local, provincial and national agencies concernel | with resource development,” Mr. | Nash said, “and machinery required to bring the various agencies together.” He used as |an example the Advisory Counci |on Water Use Policy which he |said includes representatives jfrom Department of Northern | Affairs and National [veseources, jAgriculture, Trade and Com- merce and Public Works. Mr. Nash said that an advisory coun- cil at the provincial level would be a major step toward more effective liaison between various agencies and between federal and provincial authorities. The Power Commission official termed the Fraser River Board Report a landmark in the de- velopment of an objective ap- proach to water resource man- agement in B.C. “Those con- cerned with policy-making must now translate the principles out- lined in the report into prac- tise,” he said.

That's why far-sighted mothers and fathers who want to give their children the best possible in life for the plan far in advance rising costs of higher education. For many Canadian parents, the monthly family allowance cheque provides an opportunity to lay the groundwork of a savings program designed to cover the costs of higher educa- tion for their children.
