The American proposals were put on the agenda by the assem- bly’s 25-country steering com- mittee Wednesday ‘night.

Howard — OTTAWA (CP) — A motion that the Commons should say thanks to the U.S. Congress for voting against the proposed nu- clear test blast: at Amchitka, Alaska, was tumed.back in the | House Thursday. Along the way it. sparked some discussion about House procedures, including a sugges-- tion that members denying unanimous consent required for some farms of motions should stand up and be counted. . Frank Howard (NDP—. Skeena) proposed the motion, which would have had the Cana- dian Commons extend its “ap- . preciation to the U.S. Con- gress”, including an expression a of hope that President Nixon would adopt the same attitude. Congress Wednesday denied funds for the Amchitka test un- less the president issues a direct order for it, Mr. Howard's motion required unanimous consent and didn’t get it, as some Members called No. . VANCOUVER (CP) — Stu- dent demonstrations to protest the proposed United States nu- clear test explosion in the Aleu- tians were planned today at several Canada-U.S. border _ etossings, with the announced goal of closing the border. — on Amchitka blast issue “We're willing to get arrested if the police move in... Our argument isn’t with the people ‘of Blaine, it's with the Ameri- can government which persists ‘in its desire to see the Amchitka blast go off.on schedule.” - Similar protest actions are planned in other parts of Can- ada. Students at the University ‘of Windsor will attempt to close the tunnel hetween "Windsor and Detroit. Loyola University stu- dents in Montreal are also plan- ning a border-closing demon- Stration, ~ , Meanwhile, the Canadian Coalition to Stop the Amchitka: Bomb said Thursday it had sent U.S. President Richard Nixon more than 30,000. names of per- sons opposed to the test. _ The largest ‘demonstration © ‘was expected near Blaine, Wash., 30 miles southeast of - Vancouver, where organizers from the University of British Columbia expected more than a thousand students. Eleven buses have been chartered for | the trip from the campus. UBC student president Steve Garrod said earlier this week the demonstration at Blaine is. planned as a non violent. ° protest. TOTAL PANIC Gastown got the mounted VANCOUVER (CP) — City police inspector Hobert Aber- erombie said Thursday that he wouldn't have been able to clear . demonstrators from Maple Tree Square in the Gastown area Aug. 7 without using the mounted police he called ‘ini. i iMe:tola:t the-in i police in clearing the area that he did so because demon-. strators at a marijuana “smoke-in" began sitting down. People are just not going to sit in front of horses, he said. He added that six policemen were hurt in the disturbance but it: would have been more without the use of the mounted officers. Inspector Abercrombie agreed with a questioner that it was “quite Probable” that many people in the square did _ Hot -hear the warning he gave over a loud hailer that the crowd had two minutes to move or police would clear thie square. Kenneth Lester, 22, a city so- ‘dial worker and writer for the Georgia Straight Alternative ‘Press newspaper, testified that “the horses went right over top of the péople.”” FALLING DOWN ‘When the police hit the crowd, there was “total panic, total panic, total surprise — people were falling down, it was very - confusing.” Lester, described in police evidence as having been’ ac- tively involved in Vancouver demonstrations for 18 months, said he has never advocated - _ “violence or violent resistance to the police” You th “OTTAWA (CP) — State Secretary Gerard Pelletier - hinted Thursday that plans for a youth program next summer are in the works, whether or not the government eventually decides to approve them. _ . Speaking to the annual meet- ing of the Canadian Council on - Social Development, he said the 1971. Opportunities-for-Youth program was “announced and established later than’ was desirable,”” He also emphasized its’ exper- imental nature: “Many students found it diffi- cult to prepare adequate sub- missions, and the administra- tion set up to initiate the prv- ~ grams was initially swamped by the magnitude of the ap- plications. “To avoid a repeat of such a | situation, we have begun our program — in the works planning process. Any program which gains approval for next summer would need to be an- nounced early in the new year so that everyone has time to prepare,” Under the Opportunities-for- Youth: program . administered by Mr. Pelletier’s department, $24.7 million was provided to 2,316 selected projects designed and run by young Canadians Jast summer. Asked following’ his” speech when and how decisions on fu- ture funding will be made, Mr. Pelletier said the normai proc- ess of consideration is going on. - HAS TO BE EARLY ‘But. whatever. decision was ; made, it would have to be taken “in time for an anmouncement late this year or early next year” if there avere to be a sim- ilar program. ‘dnto. the, | e actions of ™! Ps asks” | for snow slides — Frank Howard, M. P. for Skeena today requested that the Minister of National Defence, The Honourable Donald Macdonald review the possibility of permitting controlled snow slides in the mountain areas of B.C. between Terrace and Prince Rupert. . Mr. Howard stated in his letter to Mr. Macdonald “It is my understanding that your Department uses artillery shells to dislodge accumulated snowfall. in some of. the mountain areas of B.C. in order to have a controlled snow slide in a volume-and at. a. time that doesn’t cause damage to. the. travelling public,” — . "Between Terrace and Prince Rupert in B.C. there is a particularly. hazardous stretch that sees snow | Slides: occur every winter, and on occasion twains have been derailed as a r- ‘esult.
