The town has various plans for the buildings - from a library to a day care centre, to an "incubator mall" for fledgling new businesses, supervised by the town's Economic Development office. But the Auditor's rules don't allow that kind of creative solution. Bud Wildman, the MPP who represents White River, is now a cabinet minis- ter. He told me the new NDP government is thinking about reforming the process of dis- posing of government proper- ty. "It seems to me that it might be useful for us to con- one ead of the top of the basket.

In other words, Wildman says the NDP is thinking about reforms that would allow the old MNR buildings to be sold to the township for a dollar, instead of the current rules, set down by the Provincial Auditor, which force the province to sell the buildings for market value. Unfortunately, until that reform is made, it seems quite likely that the "White Elephants of White River" will remain stuck in a quagmire of Government red tape - just where they've been, for the last 11 years. e LINDA PELTO eo oh 824-3044 FY «EVENINGS TN S WEEKENDS CAP call 824-3345 Support for those soldiers willing to risk their lives Continued from page 4 I was stationed in Europe duringthe Cuban Crisis, at another time when humanity stood at the brink of war. I know from personal experience the attitude of the average soldier in such a situation. When we entered into the forces, we did it with the full knowledge that some day we might have to fight, even to die as the result of our decision. Our choice came up for review every three years when the time came to re-enlist. We were physically, mentally and spiritually prepared for possible combat. It was important for us to know that our cause would be just, and that our country approved of our actions. Fortunately for us, conflict was avoided and we never had to put our resolve to the test. I wholeheartedly support the cause of peace, but this war seems to be the only solution. Not to fight would likely pro- duce dire consequences not only for the middle east, but for the entire world. I would urge the peaces activists to target the real criminals in this affair - the countries and the industries who provide these unstable countries with the weapons and technology of mass destruction. Advocate for their prosecution, boycott their exports, but lend your support to those soldiers who are willing to give their lives to clean up the mess these unconscionable people have created.
