an

asked

It

Deputy

said
Thursday
the

The

sticking

said
one

Well

The

which
took

when
it

announced

He
said
Friday
a

preliminary

nary
search
by
department
officials
showed
the
Mowachat
band
owned
the
land
on
which
they
built
the
blockade
But
further
checks
revealed
a
1938
cabinet
order
which
apparently
gives
the
province
the
right
to
use
1

of
a

for

Mr

said
it
was
clear
the

owns
the

Lillooet

of
the

near
Mount
Currie

that
it

30000

VANCOUVER
CP
The
Greenpeace
expedition
to
save
the
whales
in
the
Pacific
ended
Sunday
30000
in
debt
but
an
expedition
crew
member
promised
it
will
resume
next
summer
Bob
Hunter
told
a
crowd
of
3000
gathered
at
Jericho
Beach
to
welcome
the
Greenpeace
V
and
VI
home
that
the
group
will
sail
a
bigger
ship
next
summer
to
harass
Russian
whalers
Mr
Hunter
said
a
larger
boat
is
needed
because
the
Russian
fleet
which
has
a
top
speed
of
20
knots
was
able
to
quickly
outdistance
the
Greenpeace
V
the
fishing
boat
Phyllis
Cormack
which
has
a
top
speed
of
nine
knots
He
said
the
confrontation
with
Russian
whalers
off
the
California
coast
would
never
have
happened
if
the
sperm
whales
had
not
been
attracted
to
the
Greenpeace
V
The
whales
came
right
at
our
boat
and
the
chaser
boat
we
were
following
had
to
change
course
said
Mr
Hunter
a
Vancouver
Sun
columnist
Thats
the
only
reason
we
intercepted
them
the
whales
Mr
Hunters
speech
also
contained
criticism
of
the
Canadian
government
which
he
said
is
in
the
business
of
saving
whalers
and
the
International
Whaling
Commis
Commission
¬
sion
which
he
called
a
fraud
and
a
front
operation
He
said
the
Greenpeace
Foundation
which
paid
out
70000
for
the
expedition
now
will
concentrate
on
