workable,

On Tuesday, the British
Columbia Supreme Court
upheld 4 three-year contract
awarded to workers at 103

The arbitration award, re-
quested by the Hospital Em-

provisions of the act, was
challenged by the Health
Labor Relations Association,
bargaining agent for the
hospitals.

Williams refused . to
comment on the remarks by
Justice George Murray that
the legislation was poorly
written.

He said he expects both
sides to get together to
implement the award.

Did you know that we buy
tractors from Russia?

A few years ago, we im-
ported our first Russian
tractors. They were slow to
catch on and were bought
mostly in the prairie
provinces. They are mw
available at your local
dealer's establishment.

1 do not buy Communist-
made goods. I have my
reasons and Jam firm in that
decision, However, I am
intrigued by this evidence of
increased trade with Iron
Curtain countries. Why, for
example, do we buy a
product that is produced in
abundance in Canada? Is the
quality better; or the price?
How do such goods compare
with, say, Japanese or West
German products’? The
(limited) Atrill report
follows:

Price seems to be the

biggest inducement to buy

Communist. Prices on ail
products, whether shirts or
machines, are usually 30
percent below prices of
Canadian-made goods. I
have been able to observe no

other inducement to buy
Tron-Curtain; quality is
inferior, workmanship is
reminiscent of our early-
days band manufacturing
and I shudder to think about
the availability of parts.
Looking over the several
sizes of tractors, 1 was
amazed at the combination
of old and new, Hand
painting of parts, for
example, and a modern
diesel engine. Tires were
accidentally painted with
yellow and then repainted
black, by hand. Castings are
generally unfinished. Thick
paint is used to cover im-

perfections. Sheet metal is .

poorly fitted. .

One of my brothers drove a
large Russian tractor for an
Alberta farmer. He monkey-
wrenched and awaited parts
and fought with it for several]
weeks, finally refusing to use
it. By contrast, I have a
Massey-Harris that is still in
top running condition after
twenty-five years of use.

Anyone’ who buys a
Communist-made product,
deserves it.

Lawyers Like Queen

HALIFAX (CP) — A

proposal that a Canadian -

replace the Queen as head of
state drew less fire than
expected Wednesday from

more than 7 lawyers at the |

Canadian Bar Association
convention.

They jammed an
auditorium here to question
authors of a constitutional
report about the proposal,
one of 193 in the report.

Many expressed affection
for the Queen as head of
state and some said they
feared that replacing her
witha Canadian would mean
political appointments. — .

But Douglas Brown of
Vancouver, one of the 12
authors of the report, said its
underlying philosophy is ‘‘a
faith in the Canadian
people.”

Brown said he heard
lawyers say that a “political
hack" would be appointed if
a Canadian became head of
state. ‘

He pointed to Canadians
who have held the post of
governorgeneral: Vincent
Massey, Georges Vanier,

other cabinet ministers Roland Michener and Jules

another package of spending
reductions to follow the $1.5
billion incuts he made public
Aug. 17. Most of the
reductions come from future
spending plans, rather than
from current spending.

It is known already that,

federal spending next year
will still rise by about nine
per cent or $4.4 billion to
around $52.7 billion. The

said, :

One of them wasn’t an

REACTION NEGATIVE

The sudience applauded
him. However, most reaction
to the head of state proposal
was negative.

Mr. Justice Kenneth

opposed it because the Queen

MacKay complained that
the report offered nothing to

Quebec whose rights “have
been taken away from

He was also applauded.

“Let's take this and throw
it In the garbage,” Bill
Thompson of Peterborough,
Ont., proposed. He said the
report is divisive.

Brendan O'Brien of

FREDERICTON (CP) —
Canadian Indians agreed
Wednesday to_send 300 or
more of their chiefs to

against propesed con-
stitutional reforms.

A resolution approving the
unprecedented trip was
passed. unanimously | by

‘delegates to the ninth annual

place next spring, sald one
Brotherhood official.

There are 510 Canadian In-

would be able to make the
trip so the Brotherhood was
contemplating bringing
about 300, he said.

The resolution sald the
delegation of chiefs is to
inform’ the Queen, her
British prime minister and
foreign secretary, that they
do not want the constitution
patriated to Canadian soil
“where the white immigrant
governments can further
jeopardize the rights of
Indian governments.”

The. trip would include a
stop in Paris where ,
chiefs would seek the sup-

_ port of the French govern-

ment—an idea put forward
by Quebec delegates.

Chief Max Gros-Louls said

French war aver Canada

between the French and
Indian nations. The French
government could be asked
to tell Britain to observe that
treaty, he said.

‘SUN BEGAN TO SET'

“When the sun began to set
on the British Empire the
Queen gave Africa back to
the Africans,” said Clive
Linklater, a former
Brotherhood vice-president
who helped put together the
trip idea.

an Indian elder from St,

George Erasmus, leader af
the Dene Nation in the
Northwest Territories, said
his people favor the trip, but
only if the chiefs do not go

aging,

‘THES IS OUR LAND’

“There is nothing we
should be asking for," said
Erasmus. “This ig our land.
We should take it.”

That was seen as a call for
Indian soverelgnty—for all
Indians to assert themselves
as nations and to govern

_themselves. Erasmus has

demanded the federal
government turn over much
of the Mackenzie River
Valley of the N.W.T. to the
Dene, who would rule them-
selves.

Prime Minister Trudeau
has said there can never be
any ethnic states in Canada.

Dave Abenakew, president
of the Saskatchewan
Federation of Indians,
supported the call from
Erasmus, saying leaders of
Canada's major political
parties are meaningless to

Indians,

Joe Dion, Alberta Indian
association president, said
the visit to the Queen might
prove needless. If delegates
were sincere about
sovereignty, they should be
prepared to take other ac-
tion—such as no longer being
British subjects or Canadian
citizens.
