Q. When was the first escalator?
A. In 1900, an Otis Elevator Company escalator was ex-
hibited at the Paris Exposition. After the exhibit, the
escalator was dismantled, shipped across the ocean, and in-
stalled in the Gimbel Brothers building in Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania.
Q. What do the terms first, second, and third world mean?
A. Using these terms is a way of categorizing the countries
of the world by their economic development and political
philosophy. The fust world countries are those industrializ-
ed countries which are not communistic. Canada belongs in
this category. Communistic countries of Europe and Asia
belong to the second world. (There is some dispute about
Peoples Republic of China. Some contend that it belongs to
the second world; others say the third world. )
The third world represents about 120 countries in the
world, most of which lie in the Southern Hemisphere areas
of Latin America, Africa and Asia. Most of these countries
have an economy based on agriculture as opposed to in-
dustry and are relatively poor. Most were colonies of
Western European countries until the end of World War II,
when they were given their independence. Politically, they
have not aligned themselves with either the first world or
the second world countries.

About Poverty
by Bob Watson
There was a convention in downtown Toronto last week
dealing with hunger in Canada. It was the first one to be
held in this country. While we support any community ef-
fort to aid people who are victims of circumstances beyond
their control, we found the conference getting emotional un-
necessarily, in our opinion.
Let's take the case of a young 20 year old woman who said
she had only $11 a month to buy food after she pays her rent.
She added that she had to run around the street looking for a
blanket because it was so cold. She felt hurt and depressed.
Her boy friend, aged 27 and she came south to Toronto
from a town up north. He said he was hungry and tired of
people looking down on him like a piece of garbage and add-
ed that "all those well-dressed business people just walk by
looking at you but never looking into your soul."
He then continued by saying that it was not his fault that
he is down so far, that a lot of people can't turn to the people
they love for help. His parents had told him never to come
around. He said that the government has money to help peo-
ple like us but it doesn't!
Well. instead of crying, we would like to have asked this
young Asan if he were working or trying for a job - a point
which did not come up in the news report of the meeting.
There are a lot of jobs in Metro Toronto going vacant
because they are jobs most people do not like. But when you
are hungry you do those jobs, in our humble opinion. We
can't sympathize with these two young people because we
have hundreds of young mothers with children attempting
to survive and they have a much greater problem to solve.
And speaking about poverty, there are not many Cana-
dians who understand poverty - we mean the definition ap-
plied to those millions in India who have nothing each and
every day in a place like Calcutta.
Subways Better
Dear Sir:
In vour Oct. 1st article, "More Roads Please", you call
for the construction of more expressways as the long range
answer to our crowded roads and highways. While many of
your points are well -taken. I believe one of your statements
is a distortion and warrants clarification.
The statement in question reads, "Roads cost less than
subways and move more people in an hour .." While the
first part of the statement is correct for the pure engmeer-
ing. structural and construction costs. it may not be true
once the property costs are included.
In order to match the people -carrying capacity of one
subway line, it would be necessary to construct one ex-
presw•ay with 28 lanes, 14 in each direction. or the
equivalent of 4 to 5 expressways with 3 lanes in each direc-
tion. It is obvious that the corridor width required for road-
ways is much greater than for subways. In many cases.
subways have been built below existing roadways with
minimal land acquisition requirements. The lower
engineering and construction costs of expressways can be
offset by the higher land acquisition costs for expressways.
Thus, the dollar cost comparison of subways vs ex-
pressways is dependent upon the land values of the area
where such a facility is to be constructed. However, the
dollar cost of such facilities is only one factor to be con-
sidered.
The question has to be "Where would you put these ex-
pressways"'. More importantly, the issue becomes - -At
what cost'". The social and environmental intrusions of ex-
pressway construction have become a prime focus, apart
from the pure dollar casts.
Finally, in terms of beg range planning. I suggest to you
that it would be wiser to construct subways at a higher con-
struction cost, lower property cost, and less intrusion to ex-
isting neighbourhoods. As congestion continues to strangle
the roadways, subways will continue to operate on
schedule.
I believe there is more to effective long range planning
than simply a comparison of dollar costs per passenger and
in fact the citizens and their elected representatives have
recognized this when the commitment to Network 2011 was
made. Network 2011 is a giant first step to relieving some of
the congestion you speak of.
Yours very truly.

A Canadian War Hero

A young Canadian doctor. Major Ben Wheeler, was held
prisoner of war from 1943 to 1946 in Japanese war camps of
World War II. He kept a secret diary, which was forbidden
The Significance of War Memorials
by Jolie DoU
Fairvie-a, Alberta
At a recent Remembrance Day service I stood alone
amidst the crowd. I had nothing to do with the wars. I simp-
ly didn't understand why we went through the motion of a
service every year to remind ourselves of the horrors of
war, violence and death.
As I wondered, my eyes caught sight of an old man. He
wore a beret and on his chest was pinned a bright red pop-
py. As the band played "O Canada", his eyes welled with
tears. Yet he sat erect with his hand elevated in a salute and
proudly sang along. His body was maimed. He sat propped
in his wheelchair and as I looked closer, I saw that he had
no legs. He had been in the war and despite his phenomenal
handicap, he made his way to the cenotaph to lay a wreath.
I continued to wonder. This man, so obviously destroyed
by the horrors of war continued his love of country and took
an active part in the service. Then something else caught
my eye. An elderly woman next to me clutched a yellowing
picture of a handsome young man, and as the bagpipes
played on, she smiled with pride and said to me as she
tenderly caressed the frame, "You know, he died for
freedom for you and me."
The service was over, and soon I was left standing alone
in front of the monument. As I read the names of those peo-
ple who died in the war, the words of that elderly women
kept running through my mind, .. "freedom .. for you and
me .." I continually envisioned the maimed old man sing-
ing "O Canada" and I finally realized why I attended that
Remembrance Day service. Those brave men and women
of days long past fought for me. They fought to preserve a
way of life for their children and their children's children.
They gave their lives for freedom. I realized that the
memorial services were not to immortalize the suffering
and hardship of war, but to instill in the hearts of all men
and women the pride and bravery of our ancestors, and to
help us prevent the tragedy of war from occurring again.
I finally understood that the world lay in our hands and
that by having memorial services we would learn to protect
it from evil and love it like those brave men and women lov-
ed it .. for all time.

in the camps, but this diary gave him the strength to help
the other prisoners who were sick. dying and going insane.
He himself had high fevers, diarrhea, and many other il-
hiesses, but he always found the strength to help the other
mea in their times of need.
Ben Wheeler was in his early thirties when he was cap-
tured. He had been sent from Alberta to work in an Indian
military hospital in India, when World War II broke out.
The Japanese attached Singapore, where Ben was working.
and the defenders surrendered in jest a few days. Ben and
many others were taken as prisoners to Japan. Even on the
awful trip, Ben helped any Amen who needed him.
When they arrived at Formosa. Japan, they were march-
ed to Taihoka Camp, to be yelled at and disinfected before
being taken to the prison huts, which were made of mud and
bamboo. and housed tie men to each.
Discipline was harsh. On meeting a guard, a prisoner had
to snap to attention and bow. A slow or sloppy bow meant a
slap or a punch. Some men were seriously injured, only
because they didn't bow properly.
Wheeler was the doctor of the camp. While the
reasonably healthy men went to work. Wheeler would stay
in the hospital hut, which was made for six men, but usually
held at least twenty. and try to help the dying captives. He
had no drugs, equipment or anything else - so this was not
an easy task. Ben, Wee the other prisoners, had to go to bed
at 8: 30 and could not attend to any sick men during the night
unless the guards permitted him to.
Soon the prisoners were moved to a camp called
Kinkaseki, which was like a nightmare. The prisoners slept
on bare boards, and most men were crawling with lice.
They had to work in a copper mine, and lots of them died on
the job. falling down rickety steps in the mine shafts or
becoming poisoned with copper sulphite, but Ben Wheeler
kept on helping them. One man was covered in festering
sores. Wheeler wrapped them in lichen he picked up around
the camp (-There must be iodine and iron in those plants!',
he had said), and the sores vanished.
The men called him a genius. He kept dispensing
medicine, even if it was only burnt rice rubbed together.
Every evening he went into the death but and crawled along
to speak to every man. His words seemed to work a kind of
magic, because the men believed in him. No matter how
badly he or the other prisorners were treated, he never lost
his control or his dignity, and this attitude encouraged the
men around him.
The men were freed in August, 1946, when the Japanese
surrendered to the United States. Ben Wheeler was taken
home to his wife and three children in Alberta. He received
many letters of thanks from men he had helped during the
war. In Canada, Ben studied to become a specialist in inter-
nal medicines, to continue helping people. After Ben died,
his daughter completed the award-winning film, "A War
Story", about her father with the help of his secret diary.
I feel that Ben Wheeler is a Canadian hero and has con-
tributed to world peace by setting an example of helping
others even while he was suffering, and by never giving up
hope for peace.

forces with the Canadian
Diabetes Association to
pound it off for diabetes.
Getting an edge on
November's National
Diabetes Month, from Oct.
20th to Nov. 29th, the
Weight Watchers "Poun-
dathon" will raise funds for
the CDA's Charles H. Best
Fund. This fund supports
research into the causes
and treatment of diabetes.
Poundathon participants
will be sponsored for the
pounds they lose during the
six-week campaign. Last
year in a similar cam-
paign, Weight Watchers
members raised $85,000 for
the Heart and Stroke Foun-
dation.
"There is a natural shar-
ing of concerns between
obesity and diabetes since
the overweight are at
greater risk of getting
diabetes," said Marie Lud-
wick, President of Weight
Watchers for Central and
Eastern Canada.
"Eating sensibly is
equally essential for the
diabetic and for our
membri," she continued,
"so we feel that the Poun-
dathon campaign is an ex-
cellent way to benefit
diabetes research and
education while motivating
our members to lose
weight."

paign was kicked off
simultaneously today in

at 9:30 a.m.
in Cmati the Room No. 1. Scarborough Civic Curtin
a Resolution of the Ontario Association of Property
Standards Officers which is opposed to proposed action
by the Ministry of Municipal Affairs to restrict municipal
Property Standards By-laws only to maintenance of the
exterior of buildings.
Further proposed legislation under Bill 51, if passed,
will provide, for residential rental property (only), provin-
cially established property standards regulations to be
enforced by every municipality in Ontario through the
application of rent control legislation. rather than through
the Courts.
This will be of interest to residents concerned about
maintenance or property standards in rental properties, in
particular, and to property owns who are interested in
the maintenance of existing buildings in their
neighbourtwods.
Members of the community aro invited to attend this
meeting and to discuss a request that the Ministry of
Municipal Affairs reconsider its position on this matter.

Report From Parliament Hill
by Bob Hicks, MP Scarborough East
The mid -point of any mandate is a time to reflect on the
achievements of 2 years past and the promise of 2 years to
come.
In the 25 months since assuming office, this government
has presided over the largest employment and economic
growth of any industrialized nation in the world. This infor-
mation comes not from a government report; it is the result
of a study carried out by the prestigious Organization for
Economic Co-operation and Development (O.E.C.D. ) bas-
ed in Paris.
However, job creation in itself does not satisfy our pro-
mise of renewal, if these jobs are concentrated in one
region or benefit one sector of the population. Consider
these facts then.
Atlantic Canada has seen a 250% increase in job creation
over the record of 19101984, or 1,300 per month since 1984
compared to 500 per month under the last government. On-
tario alone has seen an increase of 284,000 jobs.
Just under 600.000 jobs have been created nation-wide
these past 2 years. of 24.800 per month, compared to 7.300
per month under the previous govenment. Of equal impor-
tance, over 75% of these jobs are full-time opportunities,
while more than 60% of the jobs created during the life of
the last Liberal government were part-time jobs.
Youth unemployment has dropped by 3.4 percentage
points, which innslates to 112,000 jobs for youth since late
1984.
328.000 more women are working today than in
September of 1984. and these figures represent employment
growth in all 10 provinces. all age groups and backgrounds.
By way of legislative activity, lower-income Canadians
will benefit from recent government initiatives. Bill C-64 in-
creases the maximum Child Tax Credit by $70 in 1986 to
$454, and up to $524 by 1986. The credit will be reduced by $5
for every $100 of family income over $23,500.
Currently, recipients receive their annual benefit after
filing their tax return in the spring. Bill C-11 will permit the
government to prepay to the recipient approximately 2'3 of
the credit. or $300 per child, in the previous November. Any
remaining payment per child will be made after the 1986
tax return is filed in early 1997. This early payment is made
to eligible claimants with a family income of less than
$15,000 in 1985, and requires no application to be made_ It is
estimated that 725,000 families, with 12 million children,
will benefit with the payment before Christmas. This
represents an early payment of $390 million to lower-
incorme Canadians -
Furthermore, Bill C-83 restricts the amount of a tax re-
fund which may be taker as payment by a tax discounter,
and upcoming legislation will provide a new refundable
Sales Tax Credit of $50 per adult and $ZS per child for
families with an annual income of less than $15.000. This
crediit will be paid when tax returns are filed in the spring.

The opponent who won
had an unenviable choice.
He could lead a diamond
( thereby removing
declarer's guess) or lead a
heart. A heart would pro-

throw dummy's diamond

Now the diami nd loser had

So remember, if at all
possible, try to avoid a
finesse. You can always
fall back on it later. In this
hand if our declarer had
been really lucky, she
would have found

Plan your play and use
finesses only when you
must. This declarer show-

no finesses. That takes the
guesswork out and that is
good card play technique.

Rouge Hills 13 Bus Is
Needed Say Residents
by Gay Abbate
TTC plans to discontinue
the Rouge Hills 13 bus
because of poor ridership
would leave hundreds of
,Scarborough residents
stranded says the president
of a community associa-
tion.
Elaine Lennox, president
of the Old Lansing Cutoff
Ratepayers' Association
Mold officials last week that
the Rouge Hills 13 bus
which services the West
Rouge and the area along
Sheppard Ave. E. north of
Kingston Rd. was "the only
life line out of there".
Although there are few
homes along Sheppard
Ave. E. a large subdivision
presently under construc-
tion will provide hundreds
of riders when the homes
are occupied Lennox told
the TTC at a meeting of the
city's works and transpor-
tation committee.
Removing the bus, Len-
nox stated, would "com-
pletely -
pletely strand" students,
seniors and anyone else
depending on the bus for
transportation. Residents
would face a 2 to 3 mile
walk to the nearest bus
route.
Lennox argues that the
bus has poor ridership
because it goes nowhere
else during off peak hours
other than the Metro Zoo.
Lennox presented a peti-
tion with over 800 names
objecting to the removal of
the bus service.
Heather Muse of the
West Rouge Community
Association said the entire
northern part of her com-
unity would be left without
bus service.
One resident, Daryl
McKenzie of Blue Anchor
Trail, wanted to know how
he was going to get to his
job downtown if the bus
was taken away. McKen-
zie, legally blind, would
face a one and one-quarter
mile walk from his house to
public transit. In the
winter, this would be im-
possible he stated. "I
bought my house because
of the good bus route,.' he
said.
But Gerry Brolley.
manager of service plann-
ing. said that the ITC is not
a taxi service. "We can't
provide buses on every
street. We have to face
financial restraints." He
added that there are many
areas in Metro Toronto
without bus service.
At the request of the
worts and transportation
committee, Brolley agreed
to reconsider future rider-
ship needs on the Rouge
Hills 13 bus before remov-
ing it from service.

Florida can satisfy — or
pique — your sense of
natural and human history.
The distinctive display of
more than 1,000 fluorescent
minerals under special il-
lumination is a highlight of
a free tour of the Gillespie
Museum of Minerals at
Stetson University in
DeLand.
Over 25,000 mineral
specimens including
meteorites, Florida coral,
and precious and semi-
precious minerals are
horsed in the museum. The
colors and textures are as-
tounding! The museum is
open Monday to Friday, 9
to 4 during the summer.
Several separate
museums are contained in
the same building at Pen-
sacola's West Florida
Museum of History. The
1970s Greek Revival Dorr
House, Furnished in late
Victorian style. is reminis-
cent of the Old South, and is
open from 10 to 4 Monday to
Saturday.
A warehouse constructed
in 1811, the Hispanic
Building houses permanent
displays depicting west
Florida's long and eventful
Spanish period. It is open
9:30 to 5, Monday to Satur-
day.
The 1820s home of a free -
lack woman, Julie Cottage
illustrates early 19th cen-
tury construction techni-
ques. The La Valle House,
an 1803 duplex, also ex-
emplifies building techni-
ques of the Gulf Coast of
the early 19th century. It is
open 9:30 to 4, Monday to
Saturday.
The Transportation
Building, open from 9:30 to
4:30 Monday to Saturday,
houses a full-scale turn -of -
the century street scene
complete with buggies,
trolley and fire engine. T.T.
Wentworth Museum
preserves local and natural
history, Americana,
photos. artwork and ar-
tifacts of all kinds. Open 2
to 5 Saturdays and Sun-
days.
Further east. in Florida's
Big Bend country, is
Tallahassee's Museum of
Florida History. an exten-
sive series of exhibits trac-
ing Florida from pre-
history through Indian set-
tlers, Spanish explorers,
steamboats, and space
shuttles.
The museum is open
Monday to Friday. 9 to 4;
Saturday, 10 to 4:30. and
Sundays and holidays 12 to
4:30.
South Florida boasts one
of the world's most impor-
tant collections of Baroque
art, including a renowned
group of works by Peter
Paul Rubens, at the John
and Mable Ringling
Museum of Art. Open
Saturdays from 9 to 5.
Soak up some history at
the Greek -founded com-
munity of Tarpon Springs
on the Gulf Coast north of
Tampa. Tarpon Springs
has what is thought to be
the world's only museum
dedicated to the history of
sponging.
The Spongewama Ex-
hibit Center depicts the
history of the area's sponge
diving industry with an
early 1900s Greek spongers
village. See Sponges pro-
cessed at the sponge fac-
tory. The Spongeorama
Exhibit Center is open
every day.
Some of Florida's
greatest natural highlights
cost nothing but time to en-
joy. State park admissions
are only 50 cents per per-
son, and the extensive park
system offers examples of
just about every
geographical or ecological
point of intermit.

The appeal of the

It has been many years
since we first read them
and considerably more
years than that since they
were written but they still
evoke pleasure at nar-
rative content and admira-
tion for their style.
Some will argue that the
style is dated but they will
be those who have not read
the writings of any author
born before the twentieth
century. Before the so call-
ed liberation of taste,
writers were compelled to
convey the passion in
words that were cir-
cumspect, not explicit and
Jack London was an expert
in the genre.
His stories all embody
and glorify the deeper emo-
tions but they are never
rough .. savage and harsh
perhaps but never rough
and never in bad taste.
Some will perhaps argue
whether the stories in this
collection are Mr. London's
best (we missed The
Shadow and Flash for ex-
ample) but none will deny
their universality of ap-
peal.

NEW LEGISLATION - CHILD TAX CREDIT
To provide timely assistance to low-income Canadian
families, our government has introduced an amendment to
the Income Tax Act, ( Bill C-11) to allow for the prepayment
of the Child Tax Credit. This amendment will allow the
government to prepay a portion of the Child Tax Credit that
would otherwise be payable only at tax time the following
Spring.
The tax credit allows low and middle-income families
with an annual income of less than $15,000, with a refun-
dable tax credit. It is expected that over 725,000 families
with a total of 1.3 million children will qualify for the
prepayment.
For 1986, the amount of the prepayment will be $300 per
child, which is approximately two-thirds of the full credit,
($454). The remaining amount, if any, will be paid after the
1966 tax return is filed in 1987. For every $100 of family in-
come over $23,500, the credit will be reduced by $5. In cases

NEW HOME PURCHASERS BEWARE!
The problems associated with the purchase of a new
home have been discussed a great deal in the last number of
months. Unfortunately, delays in meeting closing dates has
become an on going, yet growing, problem. This issue has
been regularly brought to my attention and I am hearing
more of this type of problem every day. I would caution all
new horse purchasers about the hidden dangers inherent
with builders not being in a position to honour contracted
closing dates.
The building industry as a whole has experienced
numerous problems this past year. An overheated market
place, problems in obtaining building materials, everything
from bricks to lumber, to windows, to interior finishings.
They have experienced problems in securing qualified
tradespeople, but the biggest delay this year has been the
over abundance of rain. Weather plays a very important
part in the building schedule, commercial, industrial or
residential.
When a family decides to bury a new home they should
take the time to investigate the builder. Talk to other people
who have purchased new homes and see if the builder has
been able to set and meet realistic closing dates. See if they
have experienced appropriate service after occupancy.
Check with the building department of the respective town
you are thinking about living in to see if they have had
significant complaints about the builder from whom you
are considering your purchase. In other words let the buyer
beware!
If selling a currently occupied bume, make sure you build
in a sufficient extra time frame on your closing date com-
pared to the house you are buying. This will help to insure
that you will have some place to live should your new home
not be ready on time. Always have your sales agreement
checked over by a competent lawyer. A few extra dollars
paid out in legal fees can often save real headaches later on.
Use cornmhon sense when buying a new home. A short list of
some things to remember:
1. Check out the builder.
2. Have all legal documents checked over by a competent
lawyer.
3. Build into your sales agreement, if selling a current
home, extra closing time.
4. Don't be talked into something unreasonable by a sales
person.
5. Make sure your financial planning is well in place before
signing any offer to purchase.
6. Do not forget to budget for closing costs to include
transfer taxes and legal fees.
Most Importantly, remember the old saying "Buyer
Beware"!
LET'S
SEE YOU
DO [T_
OUMOORS! w�nn,arno,�.
where there are no taxes payable, the credit will be refund-
ed, again benefiting those families with low incomes.
No application will be required for the prepayment, and
payments will be made to the recipient of the family
allowance sometime in November. Under the present
regulations, recipients receive their benefits after filing
their income tax returns in the spring. In the past, many
families have gone to tax discounters to obtain their
refunds earlier, but now this prepayment will reduce the
need for tax refund discounting. Legislation has also been
introduced to restrict the amount which may be taken by a
tax discounter of a tax refund.
Other legislation will be introduced to provide a new
refundable Sales Tax Credit of $50 per adult and $25 per
child for families with an income of less than $15,000. This
will also benefit low-income Canadians, many of whom are
elderly.
