(AP) About 1,200 tugboat masters, mates and engineers went on strike Sunday, shutting down the British Columbia towboat Industry and adding to the growing labor unrest In the province. Members of the Canadian Merchant Service Guild took to the picket lines after weekend talks between the guild and the B.C.

Towboat Owners Association under federal mediators William Kelly and Don Tysoe, failed to resolve key Issues In the union's contract demands. Union members earlier voted 76 per cent In favor of a strike and 84 per cent for rejection of a federal conciliation board award. Arnle Davis, chief negotiator for the guild, said talks failed to make any headway on their demand to have the key Issues of manning, safety and towboat accommodation negotiated Into the contract. Dick Mahoney, chief negoti. ator for the owners, said these Issues should be settled outside of contract negotiations.

A federal government report on the B.C. towboat Industry released two weeks ago said SO per cent of west coast tugboats and half the men who man them are constantly exposed to unsat- Isfactory and dangerous conditions. The report Is critical of work. Ing conditions, inadequate living conditions on vessels and badly or inadequately trained crews operating in conditions of lessness condoned by masters. Guild members want some of these conditions remedied by specific clauses in a new contract.

In addition to better working conditions, guild members are seeking $200 a month across-the- board Increase on rates that range now from $583 to $980. OLYMPIA The State De- Partment of Agriculture will hold a public hearing In Olympla Wednesday, May 20, to consider establishing fees for nursery Inspection. The hearing will be held In the General Administration Building, large conference room, at 1:00 p.m. Director Donald W.Moos said the cost of nursery Inspection Is paid by the industry and up to this time has been financed from license fees. He said that because of rising costs additional funds are needed for the program and It Is proposed to establish Inspection fees on a sliding scale based on the time required to Inspect each licensee.

The funds derived from In- spectlon fees would supplement those from license fees. Nolley's calls back batch of canned chili TACOMA Nalley's Food In Tacoma has recalled 3,700 cases of canned chili after discovering that 75 cases of It had been Improperly cooked. David McDonald, executive vice president, said the Food and Drug Administration and state health agencies in California, Oregon and Washington had certified there was no serious health hazard. The chili, McDonald said, "would have caused no more than stomach upset." He said the chill was In 30- ounce cans of Nalley's thick chill and had the code letters MBOTA stamped on the metal ends. All but 14 cases or 168 cans had been accounted for by Saturday, McDonald said.

The entlra day's run of 3,700 cases had to be recalled because the code for the cooker that produced the 75 bad cases was stamped only on the case and not on the individual cans, he said. "These cases were all distributed in Washington, Oregon, Montana, Utah and northern California after being canned here," McDonald said.

Condominium controversy touched off in ski areas OLYMPIA, Wash. views regarding development of ski areas on National Forest land have touched off a controversy centering around a long word many skiers had never heard of a few years ago. The word is condominium. It means an apartment house In which each apartment is owned Individually and the common areas are owned in common. Condominiums have become Increasingly popular In ski areas on private land since federally Insured financing for them became available In 1961.

The Forest Service, which several years ago abandoned Us practice of permitting construe- tion of private summer homes in the forests, reserved judgment on the condominium issue. In 1963 and 1964 it granted per- mils for development of three condominiums at Crystal Mountain and White Pass, both in the Cascade Mountain Range In Washington, provided 20 per cent of the units were available at all times for rental. Then it imposed a moratorium on further development until there was time to see how the Washington experiment worked out. There are 180 ski areas In the United States located at least partially on Forest Service land. The moratorium expires this year.

It was shortened by two years after a 1968 meeting of Forest service officials with Gov. Dan Evans, who believes restriction of condominium de- elopment will hamper growth of THANK YOU The family of Ella Pahler wishes to express its thanks for remembering our sister with cards and gifts during her illness. Mrs. Florence Dahl Meivt'n Ha Ivor son Pacific Northwest ski areas. The governor owns a condominium unit at Crystal Mountain and puts It up for rental except on the few weekends each year that he and his family use It.

The Forest Service hired three University of Washington professors at a fee totaling $12,100 to conduct a study. Their report, released late last year, concludes that condominiums do not provide adequate public accommodation facilities. At the request of the ski area managements, the Forest service has put off a decision until it receives a study being made for the industry by Mel Borgersen and Associates of Seattle. The report Is due May 18. The state legislature stepped into the controversy earlier this year when both houses passed a resolution favoring the condominiums and asking the Forest Service to put off a decision pending a review by state as well as federal officials.

Daniel B. Ward, state director of commerce and economic development, who sought passage of the resolution, says there has been no response. Ward and the legislature contend the professors' study was too narrow and should have In. eluded the success of condominiums on private land at Sun Valley, Idaho, and Aspen, Colo. Dr.

Warren R. seyfrled, professor of urban development and head of the three-man study team, replied that these "have nothing to do with how the For. est service runs things." Thile recommending against condominiums with public occupancy, the study team sidestepped the question of whether they should be permitted as purely private dwellings. ''Those who advocate condominiums on Forest Service lands are advocating long-run exclusive use of prime public recreational land," the team said. "Whether this is to be so is an important question of pub.

lie policy determination that Is beyond the scope of our research." The researchers did observe, however, that such condominiums "have the potential of restricting future uses that could better serve the public interest." Other members of the study team were Dr. Earl Bell, assistant professor of urban planning, and Dr. George I. Prater, associate professor of accounting. All three men are recreational skiers.

Among their findings were: are rented to friends in some cases on a preference basis. The relatively low rent charged by the Forest Service for the land provides a subsidy for the condominium owners. Reservation practices ''were in a constant state of inconsistency and conflict." Hotels and motels are placed at a serious disadvantage competing with condominiums for off-season business. all three condominiums the facilities have not been kept up to the standards of a hotel or lodge serving the public. There is a conflict between reasonable standards for public accommodations and what the owners desire to do with an apartment which is essentially their private ski cabin." and more, the owners tend to consider the condominiums as private, exclusive apartments." The condominiums apparently contributed to a greater proportion of mid-week skiing, as had been hoped, but did not induce greater overall skiing.

A key question is whether fi. nancing is available for hotels and motels In the ski areas, where occupancy would be concentrated in the through April skiing season. There is general agreement the money was not available when the condominium permits were Issued. The study team believes financing could be ar.

It recommends a change in Forest Service policy under which cost of such installations is paid by the developer. Three motels have been built at Crystal Mountain since the condominiums were erected. One was built by condominium backers, but the others were erected independently. "My opinion is that theyprob- ably would not be there if the condominiums had not been built first," says Borgerson. The research team, however, said it found no evidence the con.

dominiums stimulated development of other facilities. There are 96 units in the two condominiums at Crystal Mountain and 55 units in the one at White Pass. They sold for to $14,000. Rents range from $7 a night for a single person using a hall shower to $51 for a deluxe apartment for eight. The study team concluded the rents are comparable to those at other ski areas.

The team rejected proposals that the state take over the ski areas in return for other land, saying there was no evidence states would be better mana. gers. It recommended against selling base area land to private ownership. The team called for improved long-range planning by the Forest Service for ski area develop, ment. Portland, attorney Ferris Soothe, former president of the Pacific Northwest ski Association, assailed the report as "nitpicking and criHcism." Boothe, in an article in North, west skier, contended the For.

est Service is "virtually incapable of successful management of recreational facilities." The three professors called Boothe's criticism unfair. The final decision will be made by Edward P. Cliff, chief of the Forest Service.
