WTiile councillor Raymond Luneau believes the action is too hasty, Marcel Joyal and Jean-Marie Boisvert feel that the city has been too patient with the company.The quality of Drummondville's drinking water suffers as a result of pollution from Domtar's Windsor and East Angus mills, says the city's council.U.S.radar aircraft meet NATO request Pesticides change environment OTTAWA (CP) — Canadian farmers are radically changing the environment by dumping “millions of gallons” of chemical pesticides on their fields, the New Democratic Party science critic said Tuesday.In spite of this, the department of agriculture argues against stricter labelling rules and fails to keep the public informed about hazards from farm chemicals, said Simon de Jong, MP for Regina East.“The fear that I have is that the department of agriculture has worked too closely with the chemical industry,’’ he told the Commons.However, Agriculture Minister Eugene Whelan and Progressive Conservative back-bencher Fred McCain accused de Jong of attempting to scare Canadians unnecessarily De Jong’s speech made it appear the Canadian environment is on the brink of disaster, Whelan said De Jong said the wide use of pesticides has resulted in chemicals entering the food chain and spreading throughout the environment, either by animals consuming them or by wind and rain distributing them WASHINGTON tAP) - The U.S , in sending four of its most advanced radar planes to West Germany, is bringing its military units into play for the first time in the Polish crisis to get a a belter look at Soviet military movements Pentagon officials described the move Tuesday night as a prudent and precautionary “defensive measure" but did not try to hide the fact the deployment is linked directly to the Polish situation.Officials said the four E-3A Airborne Warning and Control System planes were ordered to West Germany for a training exercise with part of the NATO air defence system in central Europe.But at the same time, the officials said the AWACS aircraft will help NATO to monitor the Polish situation.A Western military leader, meanwhile, said at a NATO defence ministers meeting in Brussels that the Soviet Union could move into Poland on a few hours' notice.NEED LITTLE WARNING “The ability of the Soviets to intervene in Poland is such that they could do it with very little warning," said Admiral Robert Falls of Canada, chief of the NATO military committee.“Indeed, I’m talking of hours, not days or certainly not weeks They are in a state of readiness now that they could move in practically (so) that we would hear about it almost after the event ” The Pentagon announcement on the radar planes followed reports from Brussels that they had been requested by Gen Bernard Rogers, supreme allied commander for Europe.The NATO defence ministers endorsed that request.In Ottawa, Prime Minister Trudeau confirmed he sent a long communication to Soviet President Leonid Brezhnev last week expressing concern about the situation in Poland.The message was sent Friflay after the prime minister consulted Western allies about coordinated action, his office said Tuesday.Earlier in the Commons, Trudeau (old Opposition Leader Joe Clark about the communication, refusing to give details Clark said outside the House it was unforgivable for Trudeau to refuse to divulge its contents.Trudeau told Clark there will be a meeting of “like-minded" countries in Paris in a few days to consider "possible alleviation of the economic problems in Poland." Poland’s army warned Tuesday that the country would not tolerate trade union activity directed against the Communist-ruled state, and the Polish news agency reported a case of possible industrial

Waikiki condominium When he resigned from that job Oct.23, “he signed the log sherd John Lennon instead of Mark Chapman,” said building manager Joe Bustamonte.Lennon’s three former colleagues were reported in mourning Tuesday.An ashen faced Paul McCartney, who co wrote many Beatles’ songs with Lennon, told reporters in London: “I can’t take it at the moment ” Study: Canada recovery slow Poll: Canadians opposed 2-1 MONTREAL (CP) — Canadians disapprove by about a two-toone margin of federal plans to unilaterally patriate the constitution, says a Gallup poll published today.A majority of those polled in each of the five regions said they were against the unilateral move.Respondents were asked: “Overall, would you say you approve or disapprove of the federal government acting on its own.and without the unanimous approval of all the provinces, to bring ithe amended constitution home?" .*VThe highest percentage of disap- proval — 72 per cent — was recorded on the Prairies, followed by British Columbia (61), the Atlantic provinces (58), Quebec (55) and Ontario (52).The highest degree of approval was seen in Ontario — 35 per cent — while the Prairies and Atlantic had the fewest respondents in favor at 18 per cent each.British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, meanwhile, says she has no plans to meet with Prime Minister Trudeau to discuss patriation of the constitution.^ When a request for patriation does reach Britain from Canada, “we shall try to deal with it as expeditiously as possible and in accordance with precedent,” she told the British House of Commons on Tuesday.Britain will be breaking with precedent if it agrees to Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau’s constitutional patriation plan, the Quebec government argued in a brief presented to a committee of the British Parliament The brief, dated Nov.28.was made public Tuesday at the first day of hearings of a special national assembly committee on the constitution and was submitted to the British Parliament’s select committee on foreign affairs A decision by the Manitoba Court of Appeal will not be the last word on the province's challenge to federal plans for constitutional reform, according to Chief Justice Samuel Freedman.However, Freedman said the near certainty that the case will go to the Supreme Court of Canada, “will not affect in any way the care and attention we (the five appeal court judges) will give to our consideration ’’ OTTAWA 889 22 H cookshire » 1 WED , DECEMBER 10, I9«0 3 The Townships ifeeunl Sherbrooke's new director: A team By JAMES DUFF SHERBROOKE — Roch Letourneau, the city’s new director-general, says only teamwork and close co-ordination of the city’s many departments can keep things working as smoothly as they have in the past “I promise you a well-motivated, dynamic, efficient, self-effacting ad- ministrative team.” the 36-year-old surveyor told assembled councillors and media at a press conférence announcing his appointment yesterday."We re not going to talk about the director general, but the director-general team,’’ Letourneau, head of the city's technical services division since 1970, told the convicial assemblage at Howardene News of Letourneau s appointment, made at a workshop session of council Monday evening, was first announced in La Tribune yesterday morning, much to the chagrin of Mayor Jacques O'Bready and the councillors, who had hoped to make the news known at yesterday's gathering But O'Bready still managed to conserve a little of the limelight as he announced that the city’s organizational chart would be amended to shift responsibilities among Letoumeau's three deputies Charles Martel, assistant director in charge of finances, will oversee ac counting, the tax roll, budget, pur chasing, and connected dossiers.Richard Fabi, assistant director of protection, promotion and related services, gets responsibility for police, fire, the industrial commissariat, public relations, insurance, the

Quebec’s proposed new family law isn’t getting the close public scrutiny it deserves, Pierre Paradis says, and it could set some bad precedents for the whole civil code Back home after his first full week in the national assembly, the new Brome-Missisquoi member blasted Bill 89 "Anything that affects precedents in the civil code will affect every individual in the province,” Paradis explained "The civil code is in effect the individual’s own constitution with society.It does not govern relationships between larger bodies.It tells him what his rights are with respect to his own H.Gordon Green C Misery in hell demands company Going through an antique store the other day I picked up an old book on Hell, and since I hadn't heard much on the subject for some time and several of my listeners have been insisting lately that I really ought to go there, I brought the book home with me.Thought that it might help me look forward to the journey.Now this book was published in 1886.It’s called “Future Punishment" and it was written by the Rev.Dr.Wm.Cochrane of Brantford, a former moderator of the Presbyterian Church.Just in case a sinner like me might have some doubt about the authenticity about Dr.Cochrane's findings about Hell, I see that he quotes no fewer than 86 authorities on the subject, most of them doctors of Divinity like himself.The author seems to have supposed that his book would be a popular number to present to certain categories of readers - to those oldsters who were getting ready to cross over, perhaps; or to the young and impressionable - and there is a very handsome dedication page opposite the author’s picture.I read in this scholarly work such quotes as these; ‘‘Only conceive the poor wretch in the flames of hell! See how "his tongue hangs from between his blistered lips! How it burns the roof of his mouth as if it were a firebrand! Behold him crying for a drop of water.I will not picture the scene, suffice it for me to say that the hell of hells will be to thee, poor sinner, the thought that it is to be forever.Thou wilt look up there to the throne of God -and on it shall be written “Forever”.When the damned jingle the burning irons of their torments they shall say “Forever”! “Forever” is written on their racks, “Forever” on their chains; “Forever” burneth in the fire, “Forever” ever reigns.” Are you old enough to remember the good old days when the fear of hell was the chief reason for your being a good boy and going to Sunday School?Are you old enough to remember the days when to listen to a hellfire evangelist for an evening was enough to keep you awake for the rest of the night?Well I’m that old, and I don’t recall that part of my religious training with any fondness at all, and I had no regrets when our bigger Theological colleges quietly began to phase hell out of their pulpits.But for some of the evangelically minded, hell still burns as fearsomely as it ever did.Seems to me that the reason that the people who believe in hell is because they just stand the thought of anybody getting away with anything, As some wit once observed, “Misery not only loves company: it demands it.” And incredible as it may seem, there are still people who actually get a thrill of some kind by terrifying kids entrusted to their care with their lurid descriptions of the geography and climate of hell.In my own community every spring sees a certain hardshelled preacher signing up youngsters for what he calls his “Gospel Camp”.Children from homes where no religion of any kind is taught are of special interest to him.The camp generally sounds like a wonderful deal to the youngsters, and if the parents are willing a bus will start calling at their door just as soon as school is over to take them out to the camp every morning free of charge.And there the all important mission of that preacher and his staff is to tell these youngsters how’ to avoid hell.„ I am well aware of the fact that some of these Daily Vacation Bible Schools are an excellent idea.It will hurt no youngster to make the acquaintance of the Bible, if the obscene parts are left out.But any man who will deliberately set out to scare a defenceless child into the kingdom of heaven is, to my mind, an ignorant and a despicable character.There ought to be a law against him.He ought to burn in hell.DR.ALLEN L.FEIN M.D.(McGill) C.C.F.P.(College of Family Physician) Has joined Dr.Michel Barette 155 Principale West.Suite 104, Magog, Que.Tel.: 843-3873 Daytime and evening clinic; home visits.person and property.Bill 89 would make changes in the civil code that set precedents for taking away these rights.” “It is not that we’re against the specific provisions of the family law — we do not believe the government has the power to do what it is attempting.” Paradis and the Liberals object to Bill 89 on two grounds First, the section covering divorce law would regulate an area now under federal jurisdiction.Second, Article 419 “introduces the possibility that the provincial executive can make amendments to the civil code unilaterally, without consulting either the people or their representatives The article itself,” Paradis notes, “is of minor importance It merely concerns power to impose fees for marriage licenses However, ‘‘Our law operates on the English common-law principle,” Paradis points out, “whereby each new law and regulation sets a precedent for extension of authority What may tie done in one area legally, may be done in other areas as well If the provincial executive can intervene unilaterally in these matters, then by following the precedents the executive could eventually establish a dictatorship." It is relatively difficult to repeal precedents, according to Paradis, "and very seldom done, unless the laws are obviously grossly bad ’’ Once a precedent is established, fui ,her laws and regulations tend to be founded upon it so repeal upsets jurisprudence.Seizure of federal powers concerns Paradis no less than the extension of precedent "It is agreed,” Paradis believes, "that the new constitution will turn over marriage law to the provinces The provinces want this and the fédérais are willing to give it to them However,” he cautions, "we do not yet know what will happen in negotiation, or how> long the repatriation process will take.” The Parti Québécois may no longer hold power by the time the new constitution is ap proved “Meanwhile we will have this bill that has passed three readings, and is ready to come into effect whenever the federal government finally gives us this right.This bill could come into effect 10 years from now when it is no longer ap- plicable to the situation.” The result, according to Paradis, would be "complete chaos in marriage and divorce." Worse, “passing this law that intervenes in an area specifically under federal jurisdiction is setting a precedent for the separatists In their last days of (lower under their present mandate, they could pass a whole set of shadow laws for if they ever are allowed to make Quebec a separate country.Then they could go around for four or five years saying Quebec is being hindered from reform by the constitutional debate Paradis has other oh ser vat ions after his initial weeks in office "They have this problem that they refuse to read anything written in English," he says of Parti Québécois advisers "Thev try to draft all new legislation from scratch instead of borrowing from other provinces or the Halted States where similar laws have already been effective The other day we were dealing with a statute that would do the exact same thing as a statute in Ontario.The Ontario statute is a very good one that has held up In court I suggested that we borrow that one and translate it, but they had to write their own that will maybe not be as good." Paradis reports he’s overwhelmed at the amount of paperwork he must handle “This riding has not Townships talk William Shedrick, 18, of Clareneeville, changed his option and pleaded guilty to 15 counts of breaking and entering dwellings and two of burglarizing commercial establishments.“He was victimized by another person yet I have no alternative but to suggest a year from today,” Crown attorney Noiseux said."I also urge he be placed on two years probation and the order include the condition that he report to the Cowansville detachment of the QPF on the first Monday of each month for the first six months.” “The crown is most reasonable," defence lawyer Claude Hamann said Judge Normandin then imposed the sentence suggested by the crown.SHERBROOKE 45 9 30.Stranger 1?15.4 00 ?45 Conlinugm ihtwi on Sunday l DBRSB commissioner resigns COWANSVILLE (JM) — Timetabling for the 1981-82 school year occupied most of last night's regular meeting of the District of Bedford regional school board.Several proposals were proposed by educators to comply with the new norms being imposed by the ministry of education.They will be ratified and approved at a special meeting on Jan.13.The board approved modifications in the price structure at the Massey-Vanier cafeteria, snow removal contracts in Farn-ham and Stanbridge East and agreed to hire a firm of consultants to examine the advantages and disadvantages of the board joining the provincially-funded DICOS central computer terminal.Director general Jim Bissell suggested boards may ultimately be forced to join the system which is replacing SIMEQ and said DICOS offers the boards more flexibility.“It’s not as if the government doesn’t have all the information they need,” he continued, “If it isn't in their computer all they have to do is issue an order and we have to com- ply” Board members agreed they should prepare their own electoral lists for upcoming vacancies in Cowansville, Bedford and Knowlton.Veteran commissioner Ken Irwin who has served Waterloo for many years, announced he was going to hang up his suit at the end of the year Chairman Bonnar Lindsay thanked him for his devoted years of service and told the board a suitable replacement for the remainder of Mr.Irwin’s tenure has been found and would be introduced to them next month “You have often objected to certain steps the board was going to take but once the decision was finalized you threw your weight behind the wheel.This strength and support has been an invaluable aid,” Bissell told the commissioner.The board received a letter from Town of Brome Lake fire chief Jean L.Grenier on the Knowlton Academy.It read “I have made a complete fire and safety inspection of your establishment on Victoria street in Knowlton.I have found absolutely nothing that could be a fire hazard or could be a danger towards the safety and security of the occupants of this building.“I must recognize here that you and your organization are very responsible since you have not tried to avoid your responsibility toward the safety of your occupants by using a different excuse like we normally see in similar cases.“On behalf of the cupants of this building, I would like to thank you, Mrs Hadlock and your organization who have made this building one of the safest in the region.” The next regular board meeting will be held Jan 27 &r; 4- CARREFOUR de LESTRIE BouUvord Portland SHIMBBOOKI S*3-03*6 jTjjl I 'OK | , m La|lJ TIGHTLY PACED, GRIPPING AND EXACTINGLY ACCURATE." ».•lilt «Il ASM H I,VII IH'KIss .the man you thouqht you knew.An Inspit.ib •ail I ilnà IV- -ni't itM!
