~ Power variety favored.

_. REGINA (CP) — Just because someone ‘1s:.in. favor of. solar power does not

- necessarily mean they are against nuclear °

‘power, Stuart Smith, chairman of the ‘Science Council of Canada, said Tuesday. ‘In fact, Smith said, lumping the two Broups into one is actually hurting the efforts of the pro-solar movement.

' Speaking to the Energex “82 conference, Smith said limited dollars available for energy projects have sometimes left the Solar and nuclear factions on opposite ‘sides of the fence,

- “But it is not necessary to believe nuclear is dangerous in order to believe that solar is beneficial,” said Smith, a former jeader of the Ontario Liberal party appointed to the council after leaving Politics. _

-He said it is important thet those who. believe in renewable energy squrces not be lumped in with anti-nuclear groups.

."You have the right of course to appose nuclear, if you believe it’s dangerous, you .have ‘the right te oppose whatever: you teh told delegates to the week-long ‘conference on energy conservation and renewable. resources.

_; We have to convince the people there is

a 1 need, that we have a viable alternative |

that works and that it’s. the best alter- “native,” he-said.

-- It's not necessary to pravake feelings that other alternatives are neccessarily dangerous; he went on.

Smith said solar proponents are not neccessarily opposed to giant energy- development projects ‘either.

“Again there's no real reason why you can't be in favor of the production of ail from offshore and favor renewables too. "

' he said. . ;

He aaid it’s agreed that oil will still be needed, at least to produce petro- chemicals,

“There’s no neccessity for those of us having a tough enough time fighting for renewables to have to be loaded down with being against megaprojects and against nuclear energy."

He linked many of the misconceptions to the movement in the United States,

“When I watch TV, it’s seems to me that T see the pro-solar folks, the movie stars

and so on as the same people that are . carrying an anti-nuclear message,” ‘he —

“But I don’t, think it's good for the mal 4 Sida sna

‘iovement’ to: be linked totally! WniiSlike HaventGdt. Those sau distinct issues."

' He said the pro-solar forces have to set~

their own course in’ selling the » public on

“solar beliefs,

with the. | he “And be twa a getting shat impression you're ‘élther on’

think the average citizen's

the side of the Green Revolution or on the, side of Nukes.”

He said that i impression is neither a fair nor useful way of putting the argument.

“Liberals tested’ Pe

OTTAWA (cP) — Federal “byetections ‘announced - Tuesday in three Ontario ridings will be the first real test of Liberal strength since last summer and could indicate the level of popularity of government economic ‘policies.

Prime. Minister Trudeau caught his supporters and- op-

“ponents off guard by calling byelections for Oct. 12 in the

ridings of Broadview-Greenwood, LeedsGrenville and

: Timiskaming.

The antiouncement came ‘in a one-paragraph news release from his office while Trudeau continued his holiday,

__at nearby Harrington Lake.

The contests will be the first real test: of the. Liberals’. popularity since Trudeau's former principal ' secretary. Jim Coutts went down to defeat in a byelection in the Toronto. riding of Spadina last: summer. ;

They also could provide an indication of how successful. Finance. Minister Allan MacEachen has beén in winning public support for his proposed wage and price restraints. - NDP Leader Ed Broadbent promised a campaign that would focus on unemployment and predicted the Liberals would lose all three byelections.

Progressive Conservative Leader Joe Clark was on- vacation and could not be reached for comment Tuesday, but:party_finance critic Michae] Wilson said he la pleased the votes have finally been called after months of prodding “by opposition MPs.

- Norm MacLeod, national president. of the Liberal Party,

’ said he, too, is optimistic about the outeome, despite recent

polls showing the party's popularity at its lowest level in decades. He discounted a suggestion that ‘Trudeau himself could be

a liability in the campalgn in light of the hostile reaction to

Trudeau's recent hollday trip by rail from the West Coast. The Toronto. riding —of “Broadview-Greenwood - WAS .-
