The visit was instigat- ed by a letter from a cor- respondent who raised some interesting questions about the provision of fish ladders at- several favorite angling spots and the contin-

“that the water tables has been

Every time a new well is sunk, every time a new processing plant is set up, the demand in- treases. Every time a stream or a watershed is polluted the sup- ply decreases until you reach a point where something has got to give. There is every indica- tion that demands will increase!

ADMIT MISTAKES

| There was a frank admission that mistakes had been made in lthe past, because of a lack of \co-ordination between “depart- ments concerned and because those same departments simply didn’t have the staff and resour- ces to look at all the possible side effects.

But it was encouraging to hear that there is every intention not to repeat those mistakes in the \future.

A great many more dams are ito be built in this province, in fact six more are under consid- eration at the present time and several others have been sufvey- sideration by our legislators as they approve the necessary funds for construction is that fish ladders and the like are ot frills but should be considered an integral part of the ovérall picture.

It’s very easy to approve a single project, and lop off the

fish ladder will cost a few more dollars, but if you repeat this

long. before you’ve effectivelv killed off the trout population. Of course, the next big question is whether or not the fish ladders will effecti- vely do the job. All informa- tion I get from the experts

It would seem to me though that more care should be taken jin providing:deeper water in the lopen stream below the ladder. {in the process of grading and construction a lot of gravel seems to have been pushed into the stream and there really isn’t too much. water left. If the stream bed is to be, altered any- way why not put a clamshell in and scoop out the bottom so that the fish will have deeper holes to rest in before they go up the ladder. The way it is now any kind of good sized fish will be scraping his belly on the bottom as he swims along.

It will take observation of sev- erl seasons to see if the ladders are working properly but I’m afraid fishermen and fish are going to have to live with more dams and more fishladders in the future.

The thing to do now is to collect reliable information as to whether the ‘fish are able to use them and keep the pressure on the politic- fans to make sure they pro- vide the necessary funds so” that well designed ladders that really work can be in-»: stalled.

OTTAWA (CP) — A_ head-on clash with the. federal govern- ment is in prospect if car mak- ers fail to narrow the price difference between U.S. and Ca- nadian 1967 models, a federal spokesman said here.

The spokesman said the gov- ernment- expects a-reduction’ in the differential when new-car prices are announced shortly. One company doubted the re- duction would occur.

There also were signs of gov- ernment concern of the possi- bility of price increases in 1967 models.

Industry Minister Drury was to fly Wednesday night to Mont- real where he will talk with Fi-
