The report, by Mr, Justice Thomas Berger of the British Columbia Supreme Court, rejected any route for Alaska gas across the en- . ‘vironmentally sensitive north slope of the Yukon on the Beaufort Sea and called for 2 10-year moratorium on any pipeline ‘development in the Mackenzie Valley. He Class delusions on dope smoking VANCOUVER (CP) — Ken Stoddart, a University of British Columbia sociologist, says the North American middle-class is involved in a massive con- spiracy of self-deception to maintain its respectability. Stoddart, who was a re- searcher with the federal Le Dain Commission into the nonmedical use of drugs in the early 1970s, said in an interview he is disturbed about recurring patterns of dishonesty that he has ob- served recently among parents unwilling to accept the fact that their children use drugs. He says pressure to change marijuana laws did not become intense until middle-class arents started worrying that their children might be denied access to professional training because of criminal records for possession of drugs. “When it was poor people and jazz musicians who were using marijuana, nobody was particularly concerned about what criminal convictions might be doing to that group,” says Stoddart. ‘‘Decriminalization is just another instance of an - advantaged class asserting its position, It’s a means of maintaining the re- spectability of an already respectable group. “It's the great middle- class conspiracy.” He says governments are trying to protect the middle- class's respectability rather than concerning themselves with the activities con- cerned, “We can hardly call an action liberal or radical when such pillars of society as the attorneysgeneral of various provinces have expressed support for decriminalization.” Stoddart argues that whenever such euphemistic namechanging occurs, instead of facing social changes frankly, people are instead creating an ideology for a situation they do not have the courage to deai with, He says this is having a dangerous effect on family relationships and public attitudes toward authority. -Carson said an Alaska Highway route might be feasible from an engineering and en- vironmental viewpoint. The panel, headed by Viinsipeg, told the inquiry innipeg, to e inquiry that iy in advance: of pipeline construction’ a carefully planned, program must be developed ‘“‘for mitigating the damages and enhancing the benefils to the human environment,” Panel members told the inquiry, headed by Kennedy Lysyk, dean of the University of B.C. law faculty, that they agreed with Berger's comment that terms and conditions cannot rotect the environment on arge projects. JACK’'S NOT WORRIED VICTORIA (CP) Energy Minister Jack Davis said Tuesday he isn’t con- cerned about oil tankers moving into Vancouver's Burrard inlet to fuel British Columbia Hydro thermal generating plants, He said B.C. has been importing heavy oi for decades and adds that whatever oil is brought in will be in relatively small quantities. The minister said that the questions of how much Hydro’s Burrard thermal plant is used, and what fuel is burned, still must be resolved, 4 P Berger said here igh eeling at when eno studies and reports are done all will be well. “This comment applies to the Alaska Highway route as well as to the Mackenzie route,’’ said the panel members, “We are concerned that some seem to interpret the Berger Report as saying that the Alaska Highway route is preferable and therefore‘ an unconditional approval is warranted. NO SNUB VICTORIA (CP) Premier Bill Bennett said Monday Conservative leader Scott Wallace is wrong in charging that a de- cision by Washington Governor Dixie Lee Ray to cancel a visit to Victoria is an insult te British Columbia. - . Bennett said Ray’s visit was to mark the season’s first run of the Princess Marguerite cruise ship, not to hold important talks on oil - tanker traffic and the like. The premier said those talks will be held some time in the future. fe aa er atatere ee ata ee! \ sed tab aeaameee At RARE ACAI RR RRR EER ES Mills Memorial continues its expansion stim 75a aT ateTePatettaterate patience cover the next Here a worker find ot pecatetateticeeatreesate week while the ground floor departments move into the new wing.

The Mission rison, considered a model in- stitution, began receiving prisoners Jan. 1 andnow has a population of 65. It eventually will hold 180 prisoners. Stewart said only five of the prisoners were working and it was not known whether the seven who were scheduled for work later in the day would leave their cells, He said the work primarily consists of maintenance jobs such as kitchen wor niture for. use within the prison system. Prison staff were performing main« tenance work during the work stoppage. Prisoners in federal in- stitutions receive from 75 and con- struction of modular fur- | cents to $1.20.a day of which 55 cents to 95 cents may be used for purchase of canteen items while the remainder is put in compulsory savings, ' tewart said. He said there was a meeting Monday between administration and risoners’ committee mem- rs at which complaints were outlined but no threat of a work stoppage was made. ; He added some of the prisoners refused to go for reakiast. _@ ° e Nothing like it Canada’s most respected 8 year old whisky.
