She also suggested writing lettere in which the author claims to be a member of the New Democratic Party con- cerned about some aspect of that party.

Record spending OTTAWA (CP) — MPs meeting today for the first time since the May 22 election will soon be asked to approve spending of a record $11.5 billion by federal governments since last March, Word that the cabinet ap- proved $2.7 billion to pay for routine government operations in October was released in the Canada Gazette just before the of- ficial opening of the 3ist Par- liament. When Parliament is not sitting, the cabinet is per- mitted by law to issue special warrants to pay for eperations. The tatai of such warrants issued first by the former Liberal government which disselved Parliament in March end then by the Joe Clark Conservatives now has reached about $13.7 billion. Parliament must retro- actively approve — this enending al the earliest magaihte time, | Clark is in hot seat now Pierre. Trudean, who occupied the prime minister's seat for 11 years, sat across from Clark 8s leader of the Opposition. Clark walked across the Commons shortly after entering and shock hands with Trudeau, who was rot wearing the customary rose in his lapel. “T must confess that [ feel alittle likea father sending a son off into the world,” Trudeau quipped as he seconded che nomination of Jerome. Jerome is the first op- position member to serve as Speaker of the Commons. First elected to preside over the House in 1974, he was re- elected today with the support of all four parties in the House. However, Marcel Prud‘homme (L—Montreal Saint-Denis) took brief ex- ception to the fact that Social Credit Leader Fabien Roy had been recognized after NDP Leader Ed Broadbent. The Socreds, who now sit on the government side of the Commons, have only five members and are not con- sidered a party under parliamentary rules. Following remarks by the leaders, Jerome was taken arm in arm to the Speaker's chair by Clark and Trudeau. As he pretended to dig in his veels ot the honor bestowed upon him, Trudeau feigned a kick to get him moving. Jerome himself reminded MPs that the role of the Speaker in Britain centuries ago was to defend the rights of the Commons before the monarch. And he noted that one early Speaker had been beheaded for his efforts. "T say that so my reluc- tance in coming to the chair ia understood," he said. One hour after the traditional ceremonies opening a new Parliament were completed, the Com- mons adjourned until 3p.m. EDT to await the reading of the speech from the throne by Gov.-Gen. Ed Schreyer. Earlier in the Senate, 16 new senators were sworn in, 13 PERCENT - Bank rate Is up again _ OTTAWA (CP) — Gerald Bouey, governor of the Bank, of Canada announced today . be is raising the bank’s lending rate to a record 13 per cent, although he is aware the high level of in- terest rates in the country is hurting individuals and businesses. Effective immediately, the bank's pace-setting lending rate goes up by three- quarters of one per cent from the 12,25-percent level an- nounced Sept, 10, This is the second bank- rate increase in less than a month and the third since the Conservatives came to power in May. It follows an an- nouncement Saturday by the U.S. Federal Reserve Board that it was raising the discount rate in that country to 12 per cent — the highest it has ever been, Since March, 1978, the Canadian bank rate has been raised 10 times from eight per cent. - resisted an increase. in in- terest rates two weeks ago when the Federal Reserve Beard announced a previous half-per-cent increase in ita lending rate, But Bouey said today he felt the central bank had to match its’ U.S. counterpart this time. By raising its rate, the central bank signals the chartered banks and other lending institutions that it wishes them to charge their borrowers more, discouraging credit buying and tightening the amount of money circulating in the marketplace. The chartered banks normally follow the central bank’s example within one or two days. This would push their prime lending rate — the interest charged to their blue-chip corporate borrowers — to 19.75 per cent, Most olher“interest rates, inuding those for consumer loans, mortgages and the interest banks pay thelr depositors, can also be ex- pected to rise. Bouey said in a news release the 0.75-per-cent increase was needed to fight inflation and to keep the dollar from sliding on world currency markets. Referring to the U.S, in- crease, Bouey said; ‘While short-term interest rates can sometimes move differently in the two countries, there are severe limits to the degree to which Canada can matintain short-term in- terest rates lower than those in the United States when Canada is as dependent as It currently is on inflows of capital from abroad to finance the large in- ternational payments deficit on its current account,” Finance Minister John Crosbie has predicted the economic country will have an in- ternational payments deficit of $7 billion this year, but recent unfavorable - developments have convinced many econo- mists this estimate is too. optimistic, - The Bank of Canada news release said; ‘The governor said that he is well aware of. the problems that current interest rates are causing to individuals and to business." ‘' The underlying cause of these problems is the high * present rate of inflation, of which the current level af interest rates is a symptom. The only effective way to -bring Interest rates down on a lasting basis is by achleving success in lowering the rate of the in- flation,” .

The last time the seasonallyadjusted unem- ployment rate, the govern- ment’s usual indicator of the seriousness of unem- ployment, fell to 7.1 per cent was in September, 1976, Seasonal adjustment means the rate compensates for’ predictable seasonal fluctuations in the job situation such as the be- ginning of the school year or freeze-up. The number with jobs in September was 10.53 million compared with 10.91 million in August. The drop reflected primarily the removal of student workera from the job force with the end of summer vacations.

Alcan faces charge By ANN DUNSMUIR Herald Staff Writer The Houston Forest Service has filed a trespass report against Alcan Smelter and Chemicals Ltd. for slash cutting in the Nanika River- Kid Price Lake area. The cutting, involving 3.6 hectares of timber, resulted from engineering studies commissioned by Alcan on the feasibility of the proposed Kemano 11 hydro- electric project. Larry Hall, deputy ranger of the Houston Forest Ser- vice, said Friday the trespass report has been sent to Prince Rupert for advice from Legal counsel, Hall said any future action will depend on whether or not the water rights agreement made in the 1950's between Alcan and the B.C, government gives the company the right to cut trees without authorily from the B.C. Forest Service. Alean spokesman Brian Hemingway, said Friday that it was assumed the original government agreement gave permission to clear trees. We will be looking at the agreement again to make sure,” Hemingway said. He said the company has “heard talk of charges being laid” but so far there has been no official word. Hemingway could nat identify who did the tree clearing because Crippen Engineering, the making the study, employs several sub-contractors. “We will have to make sure people working for the company are aware of our concern for the en- vironment,"" Hemingway said. A report from the Father Morice Outdoor Recreation Society of Houston claims trees have been cul several hundred feet up both sides of the Nanika River near the outlet of Kid Price Lake. Members who visited the site also claim trees and silt have been deposited in the river, although It is a major Spawning area for several species of salmon.
