Domestic buyers force price

VANCOUVER (CP) —
Consumers face  sub-
stantially higher prices for
fresh and canned salmon this

year because of brisk foreign

buying of the catch olf

British Columbia's coast.
Prices paid to fishermen

for troll-caught red spring
salmon, the highest quality
fish, are up about 15 to 20 per
cent from last year while

Japanese buyers on the west
coast of Vancouver Island
have been paying more than

Pope tells crowds to
resist atheist appeal

- KRAKOW, Poland (AP) --
Pope John Paul flew Wed-
nesday to this ancient city,
scene of his years of con-
frontation with Poland's
Communist government,
after making an emotional
appeal to workers le resist
atheist calls to abandon re-
ligion.

The former Karol Cardinal
Wojtyla served as ar-
chbishop of Krakow, in
southern Poland, before
being elevated to. the papacy
last October, It was here that
he had sought, greater

" yeligious freedom for the

estimated 30 million
members of the Roman
Catholic Church in Poland,

When the papal helicopter

‘touched down in downtown

Krakow, thousands of
residents of the city of
500,000 and from nearby
towns had lined the streets
10-deep to catch a glimpse of
him —‘some standing for
hours despite a constant
drizzle.

On Sunday, the Pope plans
to celebrate .a pontifical

strongly in the three days he
was in the city of
Czestochowa — the Pope has
challenged the Communist
government to recognize
religious rights and improve
the conditions in which the
church operates:

On Wednesday, a govern-
ment spokesman expressed
“surprise” at how much the

pontiff was speaking out
bout matters thal touched
on politics. Later in the day,
the Pope preached against
building the human spirit
anly on the basis of labor.

Speaking at a second mass

“The meaning of this
pilgrimage is quite inex-
pressible," said the pontlff..
“7 shall not even try to find
words to express what it has
been for me and for us all.”

The Pope, speaking to
thousands * who had once
been members of his
diocese, was dressed in his
traditional white robes. His
voice was raspy but still
strong after a rigorous series
of speeches since his arrival
in Poland on Saturday.

It was his third ap-

" pearance of this ‘day alone in
Czestochowa, where he had

in two days for Silesian drawn large and enthusiastic
workers, hesaidworkis the crowds since arriving

man’s ‘life on earth,” but
added :

“Do not let yourself be se-
duced by the temptation to
think that man can fully find
himself by: denying Gad,
erasing prayer from his life
and remaining only a
worker, deluding himself
that what he produces can on
its own fill the needs of the
human heart.”

After one of those appear-
ances, at noon, witnesses
said plainclothes security
guards jostled and shoved

several people, including at -

least one priest and two
Western photographers
while clearing a path for the

pope. -

‘and a French photographer
working for Newsweek
magazine were reported to
have been roughed up, but
the UP] photographer said
he was not seriously hurt. It °
was not immediately clear
whether the security guards
were from the Polish
government or the Vatican.
The government official
who said the extent of the
Pope’s comments on church-
state relations surprised him
also disputed estimates by
foreign reporters and church
spokesmen of the size of

worship with the po,
' “The ” figures Port. you
journalists are highly
exaggerated,'’ Stefan
Staniszewski, a foreign’
ministry spokesman, told re-
porters. He estimated that
120,-000 to 200,000 pilgrims
had come each day to attend
the pontiff's public ap-
pearances. Foreign re-
porters and churchmen had
estimated the figure at up to
