why?
Another increase in gasoline is on its way and once again
we ask why?
Canada is a country struggling to produce competitive
products in the world markets and is constantly hampering
this critical export effort through government interference
in the market place.
The latest abuse is the drive to get our domestic oil price
up to the world one. Is there any real reason why we should
pay world prices inside Canada? Sure, charge world prices
for our exports but let's take a tip from Venezuela and keep
home prices low. This will hold down transportation casts
which affect our product prices considerably.
The Ontario government is protesting this constant in-
crease, but Alberta and Ottawa are wallowing in juicy
millions gained through these price increases.
We should have an emergency force getting Eastern
Canada on to the Canadian oil pipeline and incoming oil cut
to the minimum.
As Ontario Energy Minister Reuben Baetz said an Jun
2Dth:
"It seems very strange to me that the Federal Minister
would in early May of this year, urge the OPEC nations to
maintain a freeze on world prices because the Western
economies were just recovering from the sharp increases of
1973, and then to turn around and one month later impose
such an increase (3.5t per gallon) on Canadian con-
sumers...
With al explorations really booming in 1977 and with a
very soft economy and too high inflation, the sensible thing
to do would be to cease increasing domestic oil prices. But
common sense in government canes very slowly, ap-
parently.
No Discipline
Dear Sir:
Earlier this week we discussed the problem of un-
disciplined children running at large on residential streets
and, mare specifically. to these same children playing
games (tennis, baseball. hockey, frisbee, and other) right
on the street itself, and presenting a danger to motorists
and themselves. The origins of this increasing city danger
appears to stem from the indifference of paresis to hazards
that are obvious and also to the violation of a borough
bylaw.
While the police are attempting to do what they can, they
are hampered by the feeblerhess of enforcing the bylaw. My
Question to this explanation is Why was the bylaw made in
such a way as to render it feeble?. If a child were killed in a
traffic accident and while engaged in any one of the above
activities. it is quite obvious that the person behind the
wheel of the car would be found at fault. Yet, the child (or
person), should not have been playing on the street in the
first place.
It is my contention that we are allowing a form of per-
missiveness, which will continue beyond childhood and into
adulthood. When and if pressure is exerted at this time, it
will have been the fault of our society for having condoned
the break ing of the law when the person was a child. And
furthermore. having violated one law, would they not fed
that there were other laws which could be disregarded'
To attempt to reason with a child who, through his parents
believes he is not doing any wrong by playing games in the
street, would be like telling a devout person there is no God.
It would not register.
It is time the city fathers and politicians took a good took at
the situation - causes and effect, and tried to come to grips
with the problem in a conclusive way. The streets were
designed to convey traffic, not to serve as playgrounds.
A Concerned Citizen of Scarborough.
Bob's Notes
CREDIT DUE
There is always more criticism than praise on our opinion
page, so here is some praise to correct the balance.
We would like to give a big hand of applause to SCOPE
(Scarborough Committee for Organizing Parades and
Entertainment), the volunteer group which handles things
such as Scarborough's big Canada Day Parade.
As usual. the organization was good and everything
seemed to go great. The only disappointment with the
parade was that a number of majorette groups were absent
at a competition in Winnipeg and less people than usual
were on the streets watching the many groups go by.
Success in numbers is usually complicated by what day
July 1st. falls on and whether summer cottages have lured
many out of town that day.

Helping Revolutionaries
This week we Canadians have just celebrated 111 years as
a country and many of us feel that this is one country which
keeps its nose out of,ether countries' business.
But do we? "Action', a quarterly publication of the
Canadian International Development Agency, is a tabloid
style newspaper printed on highly expensive paper ( a
typical government program - use the most expensive
paper possible) and pocked full of opinion which many
Canadians might find objectionable.
On the trout page is an article by a Dennis Schroeder
which criticizes Canadian news media for its lack of
coverage of global poverty. Mr. Schroeder also complains
of lack of coverage of "third world countries".

in the neighboring 'frontline" states of Botswana, Zambia,
Mozambique, Angola and Tanzania, it supports the visits of

And the story by Dave Beer continues:
The Toronto committee is one of a dozen "support groups"
in as many cities across Canada. raising the political issues
involved in the continuing crisis in the area, publishing
information on the struggle for human rights, self-
determirstion. and the military struggle being carried out
to win freedom."
Well, anyone who has visited the United Kingdom for a

porary bus service on
Scarden Ave. be removed
and re-routed to Sheppard
Ave.
The decision was made on
the basis of what Alderman
Joe DeKort called a
"serious hazard" to school
children playing on
Scarden Ave. over the
summer.
The temporary route was
slated to end before Sep-
tember on the completion
of the Birchmount Rd.
overpass currently under
construction, with normal
bus service to resume on
Birchmount.
But in the meantime,
according to Earlton Rd.
resident Mrs. Abigail
Whitehurst, the re-routing
to Sheppard Ave. will mean
inconvenience for many in
the area who use public
transportation.
"The re-routing will add a
total of half an hour to
someone's round trip in
tush hour," she told the
committee.
"In addition it will make it
harder for senior citizens
and mothers with children
to get to the bus."
Mrs. Whitehurst said that
Michael, a young crippled
boy she knows. will not be
able to go to school this fall
if the bus is on Sheppard
Ave. because of the
distance to walk.
"It's a plain in-
convenience for 250 of as,"
she concluded.
Scarden Ave. resident Cal
Steacy told the committee
that "there have been no
traffic mishaps involving
children" while the
Scarden bus has been
operating.
"The T.T.C. is to be
commended an the cour-
tesy and safety of the
drivers. We see the tem-
porary route on Scarden as
a short-4erm event to make
a better community,"
Steacy said.
Mrs. Claire Green and
Mrs. Anne Ross of Scarden
Ave., who have appeared
several times in protest of
the bus route on their
street, emphasized to the
committee that Scarden
residents should not be
blamed for any in-
convenience.
"The grade separation is
the cause," said Mrs.
Green.
She said that Scarden
Ave. residents
"deliberately refrained"
from naming another
residential street as an
alternate route.
"We place danger to
residents and children on a
higher priority than our
personal convenience," she
said. "We're not asking
anyone else in the area to
do anything we wouldn't do
ourselves.,,
Alderman John Wimbs
rallied for the bus to
remain on Scarden Ave.
Until the completion of the
overpass.
The drivers are highly -
trained with an accident
rate second to none," he
said
"Anyone backing from
their driveway and not
seeing a T.T.C. bus
shouldn't be on the road,"
he added.
He called for common
sense as an alternative to
emotion for "this tem-
porary measure," a
suggestion backed by
Alderman Ron Watson.
However, both were op.
posed by Alderman Carol
Ruddell, Joe DeKort, and
Mayor Paul Cosgrove on
the basis of safety to
residents and expedally
children out of school.
"U's really a matter of
common sense to keep
buses on main streets, not
residential streets," said
Mrs. Ruddell.
Mayor Cosgrove said he
"would be reluctant" to
have someone complain
that the "temporary in-
convenience" caused a
child injury.
"I opt for safety." he said.

In 1975, St. Louis encephalitis spread by
certain mosquitoes was reported in Ontario for the
first time. There were about 70 human cases,
mostly in Southwestern Ontario.
During the 1976 and 1977 mosquito seasons a
combination of factors—including public aware-
ness and care, and municipal mosquito control
programs—reduced the number of cases to four in
1976 and to none in 1977.
We will be prepared again this summer.
Since a recurrence of the encephalitis virus is
difficult to predict it is necessary that scientific
surveillance and mosquito control programs be
continued during the summer of 1978.
There is no known treatment for the disease so
prevention is essential. Symptoms of encephalitis
include drowsiness, loss of appetite, fever, head-
ache, nausea and vomiting.
It must be emphasized that most mosquito
bites this summer will be simply a nuisance.
However, should symptoms occur, you should
consult your physician.

Summertime -
A Time To Beware
You may not think we've
had such a hot summer so
far, but it's happening
already! Some recordings
on loan from the Scar-
borough Public Library are
being returned in poor
shape -
They look as if they had
been to the hairdresser for
the la test wa ve set - in-
stead they've just been left
in the aur for ten minutes.
Wavy edges and melted
grooves can result for
instance, from thoughtless
exposure on the back
window of a hot car.
Here's some advice from
your library an the use and
abuse of recordings. It's
belpful for your owe disks,
as well as those you borrow
on your library card:
— Give 'play' in storage
areas; don't pack records
in tightly. Stare in an even,
- Avoid touching the
playing surface.
- Velvet pads for cleaning
are good only if changed
frequently - otherwise they
become just another dust
distributor.

week that the Birchmount
bus be moved from its

Scarden Ave. to an
alternate route on Warden

Scarden Ave. residents
Mrs. Claire Green and Mrs.
Anne Ross were present at
the June 25 Board meeting.
Mrs. Green said she was
"very happy" with the
recommendation but
emphasized what she
called 'I lack of eornr-
munication" between the
group which wanted it -to
stay on until the Bir-
chm ou nt overpass is
completed.
"rhe other group is more
interested in tran-
sportation and con-
venience; we're more
interested in traffic
problems," said Mrs.
Green.
.Both groups will be in-
convenienced the same
way by removing the bus
from Scarden Ave."
Mrs. Green said she and
those in support of
removing the bus "are
willing to be in-
convenienced especially
since the children are now
home from school".
She told the Board that
Council will "serve and
protect" by approving the
removal of the bus.

Interest in all aspects of
horticulture is growing
among all groups in On-
tario. For 60,000 people in
the province, this interest
is expressed through
membership in one of the
250 horticultural societies.
If you've ever wondered
what these societies do, or
what kinds of people
belong, you will find the
answers to these questions
In a new 16mm film
"Growing Together",
produced by the Ontario
Pffini Agriculture and

The film, which
premiered recently at the

HUMAN BRAIN AFFECTED BY
SHORTAGES OF NUTRIENTS,
EXPERT SAYS
— The brain doesn't always
stand first in line for nutri-
ents it needs from the body,
an authority from the Mas-
sachusetts Institute of Tech-
nology said today.
Dr. Richard J. Wurtman
told the Kellogg Nutrition
Symposium that he and asso-
ciates found "normal varia-
tions" in nutrient intake affect
the brain.
Speaking to doctors, educa-
tors and experts in the field of
nutrition gathered for the sym-
posium sponsored by Kellogg
Salada Canada Ltd, Dr. Wurt-
man pointed out the brain is
not invulnerable. He said it
has long been known that pro-
longed malnutrition can cause
important changes in the com-
position of the brain and in
behaviour.
'But there is evidence that
variations, specifically in the
amounts of protein or lecithin,
in a single meal cause predic-
table changes in the amounts
of two important chemicals in
the nerves of the brain.
He said the chemicals called
"neurotransmitters", are used
by the brain cells to carry sig-
nals to other cells. They con-
stitute the 'language' of the
brain.
Diet is important, Dr. Wurt-
man said, since brain tissues
That summer -great lawn
may be harboring hairy
chi nc h bugs, so
homeowners should pian
their control campaign
now.
Dr. M. K. Sears, an On-
tario Agricultural College
entomologist. has received
funds from the Ontario
Ministry of Agriculture and
Food to do research on
these pests. He says they
batch from eggs laid in late
April or early May.
In hot weather, the rust -
colored, white -striped bugs
feed on the crown and
succulent stems of turf,
bentgrass being a favorite.
Chinch bug damage is
usually noticed in early to
mid-July, when dry sunken
patches of grass appear.
The homeowner may
think the bugs are
spreading in the lawn, but
the blotches indicate the
areas in which the females
laid their eggs after
leaving winter hibernation
sites in nearby hedges,
To check the lawn for
chinch bug infestation, Dr.
Sears suggests cutting out
the bottom of a gallon -sized
can and forcing the sharp
edges in the soil. Then fill
the can with water. Stirring
the contents forces the red -
colored nymphs to float to
the surface where they can
be seen easily.
"If this is done 10 times in
the front and back yards in
suspected areas or on the
edge of dead patches and
any bugs are found, there
_ shard J. Wurtman
alone cannot produce the in-
gredients needed to create the
neurotransmitters.
He said the diet -induced
changes "have important phys-
iological effects on such brain
functions as sleep, food con-
sumption, pain sensitivity and
hormone secretion".
Dr. Wurtman called the
findings extraordinary. "Until
we did this work, everybody,
myself included, would have
told you that the brain regu-
lates its own business — that
'the brain is so important that
it gets whatever it needs from
the circulation.
"So the brain, by virtue of
its exalted position, has been
thought to be immune to what-
ever was taking place in the
rest of the body," he said.
Scientists assumed the brain
got first pick of the body's nu-
trients because it was true for
glucose, oxygen and heat.
But Dr. Wurtman said the
hour -by -hour dependence of
the brain on the level of nutri-
ents in the blood is a "very
r at" exception.
1 he doctor said he could not
Hhy nature had allowed

:hat it might allow the neurons

:•t, can take advantage of
phenomenon in many
t,. Dr. Wurtman said.
A previously untreatable
neurological disease has been
treated by using lecithin for its
effects on the nerves, and it
will probably have nuaherous
other medical uses as well, be
said.
Raid Chinch Bugs In July
are probably a wtgh to
justify treating the lawn. It
is cheaper to treat the lawn
than to let ch=hch bugs ruin
the grass. Laying sod or
reseeding is expensive."
One chemical treatment
In the first three weeks of
July has proven effective
because the total
population is present by
that time. Early treatment
misses the bugs because
they may invade from
untreated areas, or hatch
from eggs unaffected by
the insecticide.
Diazinon, chlorphrifos
and carbaryl are recom-
mended at the rates
specified by the
manufacturer.
Dr. Sears advises
sprinkling the lawn for an
hour after application of
the insecticide to help
penetration. This floods the
chinch bugs ftnrn their
protective cover so they
contact the chemical.
Hairy chinch bugs have
been a nuisance in Ontario
metropolitan areas since

ON STAGE: When I was a
young fatherless boy, an
uncle, who knew of my love
of show business, passed on
some advice to me. He
encouraged a love of
theatre that I shouldn't.
ON STAGE: When I was a
young fatherless boy an
uncle, who knew of my love
of show business, passed on
some advice to me. He
encouraged a love of
theatre but warned that I
should never go to
Burlesque because I'd see
things there that I
shouldn't. I disobeyed his
warning only to discover
that he was right. I did see
something there that I
shouldn't have seen. I saw
my uncle sitting in the third
row!

Over the years I also saw
some of the greats of
Burlesque .... Georgia
Sothern, Ann Corio, Rose
LaRose and even, Cup-
cakes Cassidy. The best of
them all though, was
Gypsy Rose Lee who
brought an air of elegance
and class to the often
sleazy world of Burlesque.
I saw her comF alive again
last Monday at The
O'Keefe.
Oh, she didn't come back
to life, of course, but she
might well have in the
person of a delightful
young lady who bills
herself as Nana. She ap-
pears in the title role of
Gypsy, a musical fable that
tells, more or less, her
story. When she appears as
the adult Gypsy in the final
scenes, she IS Gyp-
sy...striking. glamourous
and exciting.
Gypsy and her sister, who
performed in motion
pictures under the name of
June Havoc, were the
entertainment products of
their mother...a bitch of a
woman consumed with the
desire to see her girls
among the show business
greats and to bask in their
reflected glory. The part is
played by Angela Lan-
sbury. And, how she plays
it! She sings; she dances;
she cavorts and virtually
does everything but chew
the scenerv. . One is left
loving the performer and
hating her role but
rewarding both with an
opening night standing
ovation.
Now. for those who don't
know the play, it might
seem from the foregoing
that it makes for heavy
evening of theatre. In-
credibly, it is not. Out of
wha t should ha ve been a
sordid story, Arthur
Laurents has conceived a
book that is light and easy.
Add the music of ever
rel table Jules Styne and the
lyrics of a young Stephen
Sondheim and you have a
stow that well deserves
this revival.
It's also a lavish show
with many scene changes
and an opening night, the

Scarborough mainly in

The report also stated that
no rabid animal has been

The West Rouge
Canoe Club
The local flat water canoe
racing season got off to a
good start on June 24 at the
Credit River with a warm
sunny day for the
Mississauga Regatta.
Although we are short of
paddlers in all age
categories and had few
entries, some of our
members made their
presence felt in the events
entered.
The Midget K1 (single
Kayak) with Tony Bunce
as the "spider paddler"
Fame in fourth in a pack of
seven.
Richard Helyar came in
3rd in Midget Cl (singgle
canoe) and was up with fie
leaders in a group of six
entries.
Our Junior C4 (4 man
canoe) with Mark Butler,
Steve Barton, Lex Clark
and Richard Helyar
showed a promise of big
things to come by placing
3rd out of six entries
against such heavies as
Dean and Scott Oldershaw,
Adrian Tailor and Jim
Reardon and other
Mississauga and Toronto
Island greats.
The ladies in Midget K2
(Kayak doubles) with Sheri
Bunce and Marisha Roman
did their best and finished
the race as good sports
should. The girls are 13 and
11 years old and it took
couragge and � sport-
smanship to paddie against
the 15 and 16 year old
amazons who were their
competition.
Lil Guidette and Elaine
Marshall were makuhg a
good showing in the Ladies
Juniar K2 but decided to
take their Saturday night
bath 12 hours early and
dunked 100 meters from the
finish line.

THE PROPERTY TAX
As promised in my March Newsletter, this is the fust of a
series of seven articles on property tax reform in the
Province of Ontario. Even though reform measures have
now been postponed indefinitely, I believe it is still ap-
propriate that I provide my constituents with an ex-
planation of this complex issue.
The general concensus of all parties in the Ontario
Legislature, as well as representatives from local govern -
merit is that if local needs are to be financed through the '
property tax, then the present system needs reform.
Perhaps the most recognized features of the property tax
are that it is certain and it is unpopular. Also, it is at
present the only major direct tax source available to On-
tario's local governments. If such governments are to
remain strong, they must be able to produce the necessary
dollars to meet the demands of their individual com-
munities, because without financial responsibility there is
no authority. And itis very important that the municipality
does remain a strong level of government, because the
municipalcouncil is the most easily accessible place where
citizens can approach an elected body directly to present a
point of view or request a service.
If activities and incomes were the same everywhere in the
Province. and if all residents had the same tastes and

preferences, there might not be a need for local govern-
ments. But the people across Ontario do want different
things for their communitites, and the property tax is a
means of providing local governments with the necessary
money to meet the unique demands of the local residents.
Over the years, there has been a greatdeal of debate about
the best means of raising money to finance local govern-
ment needs, for example through an income tax, a wealth
tax or a sales tax. All of the various theories do have merit,
but they also have flaws. I would like to briefly highlight
only the flaws of the tree mentioned examples at this
point.
Income Tax: Use of the income tax to offset, or eliminate,
the property tax in the financing of local government
expenditure may initially sound good but there are several
difficulties with this method. First of all, it could not be
administered locally because of the 600 plus municipalities
in Ontario, some 500 have populations of less than 2,000.
These small communities could not afford to hire staff with
sufficient competence to administer the complex system.
To collectsuch taxes in conjunction with the federal income
bet would tremendously increase the federal bureaucracy.
The result would be that more of the actual tax dollars
presently collected trough the property tax would be used
for the mechanics of collecting and distributing taxes. Thus
fewer of the same dollars would be available for providing
the necessary local services. As well, many property
owners in Ontario do not live or work in the community
where they own property. Should the tax relate to where
Put Houseplants Outdoors
For The Summer.?
Summer is finally here.
Before you decide to put
your houseplants outdoors,
carefully consider their
individual needs.
Theo Blom, Ontario

Food extension bor-
ticulturist, says putting
some houseplants outdoors
may do them more harm
than good.
"One of the major factors
to consider is suriscorch. If
you decide to put plants
outdoors, dont place them
in full all<* sun, even if
they have been kept in
sunny windows indoors.

such as a screened porch,
gazebo or under trees or
large struts are best.

most sophisticated computers cannot be programmed to
deal equitably with the distribution of the income tax when
a taxpayer owns property in a community where he does
trot live or work.
Wealth Tax: This is a levy imposed upon individuals on
the basis of their net personal wealth,, that is the total value
of all assets including cash, bank deposits, securities, real
property, jewellery and the like, less debts or other claims
outstanding against them. This type of tax is used in 14
countries throughout the world, particularly in those
countries with a high concentration of wealth such as India
and Pakistan. One of its weaknesses is how to place a value
of many of the items, such as small business holdings or
jewellery. But the main argument against such a system is
discovery. There is no registered title or external in-
dication of existence for cash, jewellery or non -registered
bonds. Much of the potential revenue here would be lost
unless all property were discovered and valued with equal
effectiveness.
Retail Sales Tax: The obvious disadvantages to raising
local revenues trough a retail sales tax is fist, if all local
governments did not impose the tax, the results would be
disastrous to those that did because people would simply
shop in the nearest town that did not have a sales tax. And
second, usually one urban location is the commercial
dormitory suburb or agricultural municipalities would not
get the benefit of a large part of the tax collected on pur-
chases made by its residents. Even if taxation was uniform
and revenues pooled throughout entire urban areas, the
problems, while reduced, are not eliminated.
Many people believe that education should not be financed
through the property tax. The reality of this is that only
about 42% of the total education costs are met from the
property tax. ( This is a provincial average, and varies
greatlyhom municipalityto municipality ). The rest of the
money is provided through transfer payments from other
Levels of aDvernment. At that, many people, especially
senior citizens feel this is an unfair burden. I must point
out that with the introduction of the Ontario Property Tax
Credit plan in 1972, very few of the senior citizens residing
in Ontario contribute to the cost of education trough
pmperty taxes. As well. the basic tax credit to seniors will
be enriched from $290 to $510 in conjunction with the im-
plementation of property tax reform. I would be pleased to
provide a complete outline of how this system worts, upon
request.
The undeniable consequence of removing ALL costs of
education from the property tax is that any thread of local
government control that does exist with respect to
education would disappear. Authority without any finan-
cial responsibility is wholly unrealistic.
If the property tax system was not in existence. we could
perhaps develop a system that was theoretically perfect.
But it must be recognised that the property tax has been in
existence in its present to for many years in Ontario. It
is impossible to completely abandon the social and
economic consequences produced by this system and
crw be instant perfection. Some relief to the property owner
can, should and is provided through provincial grants to
local governments. I will be dealing with this subject in a
subsequent column.
In the moving weeks. I will be explaining why reform is
necessary and bow the proposals for reform will affect the
