School’s first grads

Terrace photographer

visited K’san Village and
the Kitanmax School of
Northwest Coast Indian
Art where they have just
released their first
graduates.

by Philip Musselman

When Roders was in
Hazelton he visited the
Kitanmax School of

Northwest Coast Indian.

Art and found silk

. screening, carvings, and

other forms of art on

display and for sale to
the public. The school
has only been open long
enough to release its first
graduates.

This area is great for
tourists, said Roders,
because of K’san Village
and its new school, and
because of the great
steelhead fishing along
the Kispiox River.

.K’san.is easily access-
ible from Terrace (about
a two-hour drive}, which
only adds more tourism
to the Northwest area.

wanted fetuses are not
going to make any dif-
ference. This scientific
view also suggests that if
we have the right to
search and destroy in the
womb, why not nuke the
Soviets if we so chose,
or if the Americans so
chose, or the British.

I am pleased to read
that. the scientist
understands that the
argument against abor-
tion is the same argu-
ment against pollution:
that it is based on natural
law which should be
allowed sway with
minimum control (laissez
faire and not socialism)
over the environment,
including the environ-
ment of the womb.

I suggest that every

law of God, whether
natural or spiritual, has, -
when broken, its own
built-in judgment. When

the natural laws of the .

environment are broken
by humans who think
they are in control, there
is the judgment of pollu-
tion, which has brought
us 20 years away, in my
opinion, from the total
annihilation of our
planets, and our lives.
For the built-in
judgments of abortion, I
suggest people contact
their local Pro-life group
for details.

Terrace Review — Wednesday, May 21, 1986 15

To the editor:

This is in response to
Bill Homburg’s letter in
the May 7 issue of the
Terrace Review. It seems
he tends to lay blame for
many ills of the world at
the doorstep of the com-
munists,

He seems to claim that
the free people of the
world have one enemy
and that is communism.
He tends to overlook. the
threat that facists pose to
the same free people.

Bill may be right that
the communist leaders
can’t be trusted. How-
ever, there is the other
side of the same coin.
How many sensible peo-
ple would trust North

American leaders? We

don’t have the chance to
actually see if the com-
munist leaders are ac-
tually scamming their
people or not. However,
we get a birds eye view of
our North American
politicians sticking it to
us every chance they get.
They keep telling us this
is a free country then
proceed to take away our
rights without ever a care
as to how many get hurt.

Bill also talks of inter-
national terrorism. Just
a question for Bill here.
What’s worse — the ter-
rorist who puts his life
on the line to personally
carry out his (or her) act
of terrorism, or the per-
son who supplies the
weapons and explosives
for this act? If like most
decent citizens you agree
that both are equally

' guilty, then you have just
labelled Ronald Reagan

an international terrorist
for his actions against
Nicaragua. His .supply-
ing weapons and funds
to the Contras in their at-
tempt to overthrow the
duly elected government
in that country will prob-
ably cause the loss of
many innocent lives.
Because of this, I believe
he is as guilty as any
Arab terrorist and
should be subject to the
same punishment he
feels they deserve.

Mr. Homburg seems

to claim ‘‘peaceniks”’ are
strange people. Is it so
strange to want to ensure
a safe and secure world

‘for future generations

(not to mention a long
and prosperous life right
now)? He also states that
the Soviet Union has a
larger arsenal than the
U.S. That’s nice, but so
what? How many times
would they have to blow
the world up to decide
who’s the winner?

When this planet goes
up for the first time, all
the rest of the excess
missiles will just sit
around and rust. So ir-
regardless who pushes
the button first, we all
end up dead. It doesn’t
really matter whether it’s
an American missile or
one with a Russian trade
mark on it, it’s going td
kill us just the same. And
Bill, remember we're
right on the flight plan

across

for all those lovely
nukes. After all, right
B.C. is the.
shortest distance to
Russia from the U.S.
(and the same in
reverse). So lucky us will
get all those lovely stray
bombs that don’t make it
to their target. And after
the cruise missile fiasco,
I’m sure there'll be lots
falling upon our heads.
In closing, Bill states
that peace comes only
with strength: I think
that’s a crock. When I
was just a young pup,
there was this bully at
school. He had us all
pretty scared because
he’d regularly beat us
severely about the head
and shoulders. For the
longest time none of us
would stand up to him.
Finally a bigger and
tougher dude came to the .
school and put a thump-
ing on this bully. Our

Lotter The other side of the coin

savior had finally come
and rescued us, right?
Wrong, he just took up
where. his predecessor
had-left off and things

were as bad as ever. All:

that was gained is that
the beatings about the
head and shoulders now
hurt more than they had
before. From strength, I
believe the only thing
that occurs for sure is
that the tough dude will
be feared and there’s
always somebody tough-
er out there who wants to
knock the big boy off.
That sounds like war to
me!

So I think, Mr. Hom-
burg, your way of think-
ing (and those who think
like you) may be respon-
sible for leading this
planet to its destruction.
