HOE CUNNINGHAM, Editor oS ‘ sess peeeneerre® seks consents RoR MSRM RRR SM NMS The real ssue Progressive Conservative candidate Ver- non B. Ciccone should at least receive a vote of thanks for bringing the Federal election into perspective from the mias- mal haze of cloud cuckoo land. Ciccone’s first statement in a bid to, win Skeena riding for Tory leader Rab- ert Stanfield put the focus on national issues, He spoke of an economy in jeopardy, growing unemployment, sky-rocketing in- terest rates, and increasing inflation. And he pointedly asked if the coun- try can withstand another five years of the present type of government. These are the issues which are per- tinent to a federal election. They are the issues which affect Canada and Cana- dians, as distinct from one segment known as Skeena riding. Both incumbent M.P. Frank. Howard and perennial Liberal challenger Art Bates have to date bypassed the basic issues of a national election in favor of projecting a wonderland of goodies for Skeena if either should be elected. From statements issued to date the House of Commons is that Great Big Pork Borrell in the East, from whence the good life comes to the downtrodden of Skeena. A federal government warks for the good of the nation. While it is an essen- tial duty for a member of parliament to press continually for the betterment of the area he represents, it is an insult to voters to bypass the basic issues of a federal election in favor of unrealistic Promises to a particular area. The issue of the federal election is the economic survival of Canada, not the potholes on Highway 16. From the churches Mountains and molehills By Rev, Geo, Keenleyside KNOX UNITED CHURCH Most of us are pretty familiar with the common phrase — “He is making a mountain out of a molehill.? Most of us are pretty good at doing it too —we blow little things, worries and problems, that deserve only passing atten. tion into monstrous mountains that take all our time and energy and leave us exhausted. But because someone has sug- gested that we often get a new view of truth by standing an old idea on its head, perhaps we could think about our prac- tice of turning mountains into molehills. Actually we do this just as well, and very often with equally disastrous results, For instance, we oftentreat the, great mountain of moral majesty as if it was only a little hump on the plane of life and there- fore of little conse Ten Commandments stand as high as they ever did, we make molehilis in their place raise Peaks of nationalism cr racism or colourism or *4sm"’, world has become a mountain wilderness.

L CANT A MAN COME ‘OME ~% WITHOUT BEIN' CROSS: EXAMINED I LAS Editor, Herald, The editorial in the Terrace Omineca Herald, (May 22), in response tothe proposal that the Arena be built in Little Park is entirely in accord with my opinion, To further clutter up that Park would be a grave error. The large arena would take upagreat deal of space and the remainder would become a parking lot = inadequate at that, Arthur Laing ‘arrogant’ Tory charges VANCOUVER —A Conserva- tive Party spokesman charged Northern Affairs Minister, Arthur Laing with high-handed arrogance in the matter of Roberts: Bank port development. Eldon Wootiams, Tory MP for Bow River, Alberta, since 1958, made his accusation in a telephone interview, . Wooliams, who is.an expert on wheat sales and the problems of exporting prairie production such as potash and other ‘west coast is very vital, “But I strongly support the stand of Premier Bennett and your Transport Minister, Ro- | bert Bonner, that British Colum- bia has the biggest stake in the pie, and has every right to have a share in that port develop. raent and a voice in its admini- stration,'’ he said, He branded Laing’s statement that the B, C, Government would /§ be on the outside looking in, as’ ‘*ypical of the heavy-handed way the Liberals try to govern the country.” LAFF - A - DAY From Herald readers: Don’t clutter’ Little Park minerals, said development of adequate port facilities on ihe AN ONLY THIS SMORNIN' SAD I NEVER TOOK AN INTEREST IN = ANYTHIN' 'E OID! ae. This park, along with others, was given to the Municipality of Terrace by my father, the late George Little, with the agree= mem that they be “used and maintained as public Parks,’* We are fortunate to have a green park area downtown and it should be developed as such, At any time, even during in- clement ¥ weather, children canbe seen playing there, Is our Muni cipal Council going to deprive |® them of this? An attractive green area for the pleasure of all is its intended purpose. The suggestion that its proxi- mity to the hotels is important, seems to me to be ridiculous. Is the Council catering to out-of. town ‘people coming ta see a hockey game several times a year? Surely our local citizens, especially the children, deserve consideration, I am certain that visitors would much rather have a Park within walking distance. Let us act with foresight and keep our park instead of having our children chide us for making an obvious mistake. I am in favour of an arena but there are other much more suitable areas available —the old Civic Centre “slab’, for instance, It is my fervent hope that the council will reconsider their ideas on the location of the arena. t would be unfortunate and ue pleasant to be forced to take further action to oppose this but many residents of Terrace feel strongly about this matter and will, if necessary circulate peti- tions or take whatever action is. required, (Mrs,) Edith Kawinsky, Editor, Herald ion §=Mr, Lane and Mrs, Cooper and others inter ested, ’ Please do not deprivethe small children of their playground at the corner of the park, I suggest the north-east or northwest undeveloped portion east of Kalum St, park area for the ies arena and parking or, better still, the hangar slap at Riverside school, John Haaland waitor, Herald: - I got a big bet on with Emil Haugland, .
