Not just bus fares that


have gone up


IN his Westminster Viewpoint last week, Mr David Waddington makes reference to the in­ crease in bus fares over the last 10 years.


Of course bus fares


have gone up. So has gas, coal, electricity, water, rents, rates and every­ thing else and for the gre­ ater part of those 10 years, his Government has been in power. Let me remind him of


happier times, before 1979, when £5 would buy six gallons of petrol and a doctor’s prescription cost 20p. About phone tapping.


As the man said, if your phone is being tapped you will not know, and for some people that is the worrying factor. Worrying because the


Tories have reached the stage when criticism of the Government means being unpatriotic. Even church leaders are now being castigated for speaking out against parts of Government policy which they believe to be wrong. The civil servants who


leaked the information about phone tapping did so because they believed they had a duty to the people of the country as well as the Government. And rightly so, for this


country belongs to the people not the Govern­ ment. They are only caretakers and a pretty lousy'job these masters of civil servants are making of it. As for phone tapping


being a protection against the criminal, the spy and the terrorist, don’t let us be naive about this. These people are not


foolish enough to use the phone; that is why they are so rarely caught and even when they are it is after they have done whatever they wanted to do and not before. Finally, if this had hap­

pened when a Labour Government was in power Mr Waddington would have been one of the first to condemn it and accuse it of adopting policies used by governments from behind the Iron Curtain. He knows it, I know it


and I challenge him to deny it.


CLARIE GERRARD, Press Officer, Ribble Valley Labour Party.

No defence for phone tapping


“ W E S T M I N S T E R Viewpoint” — what marvellous column, full of interesting anecdotes, and even the odd titbit of in­ formation about Par­ liamentary business.


However, our Par­


liamentary representative does seem to be trusting some strange people lately. The overwhelming evi­


dence on phone-tapping, as seen both in the Press and on television, is brushed aside because another MP says it would be undetectable! Even more astonishing


is the fact that this MP is John McWilliam, a Labour member. Does Mr Wad­ dington believe all that the Labour benches tell


him? However, we all know


that the issue is not the tapping of terrorists’ or spies’ phones, but that of legal organisations and or­ dinary citizens. This is in defensible. Even more incredible is


the tale of barrister Ivan Lawrence who broke the record for the longest speech delivered in the chamber. Is not being an MP


full-time job? Are they not paid enough and have to do two jobs at once to supplement their meagre earnings? Or is there labour shortage? I cer tainly hope Mr Wadding­ ton hasn’t got a “Saturday job.”

Retired farmer


A FARMER in the Ribble Valley for more than 30 year s, M Edmund Seed has died aged 82. Mr Seed farmed the 61-


acre mixed holding Bonny Blacks, at Gisburn, until retirement through ill- health in 1961. He subsequently moved


to Conway Avenue, Clitheroe. He was a keen gardener and, in 1971, won Clitheroe Town Council’s best-kept allot­ ment contest. A widower, Mr Seed


leaves two sons and two daughters. A service at St James’s


Church, Clitheroe, tomor­ row, will precede inter­ ment at Clitheroe Cemetery.


Damaged window


CLITHEROE man ap­


pearing before the town’s magistrates for damaging a plate-glass window valued at £355 told the Bench that he had been drunk at the time of the incident and could not re­ member much about it. For damaging the


window, at Whittakers’ shop in Well gate , Clitheroe, Michael Wil­ liam Dixon (21), of Church Street, was fined £50 and ordered to pay £355 com­ pensation. Dixon told the court


that he had drunk about 12 pints and could not re­ member what had hap­ pened.

Caretaker at village school


FARMER’S wife who


was a “second mum” to hundreds of Bolton-by- Bowland schoolchildren has died, aged 69. Mrs Emily Alice Coates


was caretaker and dinner lady at the former Lane Ends School for more than 30 years, in addition to helping her husband Jack at Lane Ends Farm. When she retired 13


years ago and moved to Albemarl e Street , Clitheroe, her job at the school was taken over for a time by her daughter, Mrs Brenda Dewhurst, of Lane Ends House. In addition to her


daughter, Mrs Coates is survived by her husband, who is recovering from a stroke in Clitheroe Hos­ pital. A service took place at


Accrington on Tuesday, prior to cremation.


A lifelong supporter of church


A LIFELONG supporter of SS Michael and John’s RC Church, Clitheroe, Mrs Joan Preedy, was taken ill and died during the funeral service of a friend at the church on Friday. Mrs Preedy was 72 and


lived in King Street, Clitheroe. She had been closely involved with the church ever since she at­ tended SS Michael and John’s School as a child. Her husband, Reginald,


who died in 1982, was a professional footballer in the 1930s, playing for Darwen and Blackburn before he became a pro­ cess worker at ICI. Mrs Preedy leaves a


son and two daughters. Requiem Mass is to be offered today at SS Michael and John’ s Church, prior to inter­ ment at Clitheroe Cemetery.


CINEMA


THE Ewoks are back in a tale of magic, courage and warmth in a distant world the film “Caravan of


Courage” showing tomor­ row for the week at the Civic Hall, Clitheroe. The furry creatures


won the hearts of cinema audiences worldwide when they made their debut in “Return of the Jedi” and in this latest offering, producer George Lucas promises some amazing visual effects.
