In a letter addressed to several newspapers in the area Mr. Livingstone states that "since the governments Enjoying Jl%b people enjoyed a great dance on Sat. May 4m at Sheridan Mall when sloe Pickering :.,ricewasheld.Someofthecouplesenjoyingtheactivitiesammenabove.(Pholo Inerease Recreation Trt,,.,)r biahopi have expropriated the land and homes the land has gone into rapid decline of weeds, building deterioration and community indifference." He says "most long term residents have moved away, and in the Cedarwood region tenatns are moving into properties that have always been owner -occupied. With final expropriation the whole area will then be totally tenant -occupied and there will be no one with any roots Mr. Livingstone continues "Empty beer bottles strewn along the fifth concession and dead end sideroads tell a silent story if illicit guzzling. There are rumours that the hill climbing motor cyclists will soon be gathering in the old gravel pit between the fourth and fifth concessions. If this -is taue, the rancous ear- splitting din from their open mufflers will definitely add to the deterioration of the community and no-one with any respect for shlence will want to live within two miles of that area". At Pickering Council this week Councillor Jack An- derson said that he had received some 22 calls over the last weekend coneern. 9 ,his type of problem. He said 'hat then has been coo- -:derabbe damage to vacant and properties. These :properties have been ex- propriated, he said, and therefore the Province ,hould police the area. ouncillor Anderson then put forward a successful motion suggesting that 'the Province should be requested to set up security system in the North Pickering arra similar to the Federal Government system in the Airport site. No Deviation Allowed From Site Plan Agreement A letter to the Pickering Town Clerk from Mr. C.J. Williamson. President of the Pickering Harbour Company Limited, states "a number of years ago we purchased the property at Wharf Street and Won't Go To Region A resolution re -affirming Pickering's opposition to the proposed Airport and seeking the support of the Regional Council of Durham in this matter has been tossed around between Pickering's Executive Committee of Council and the Council itself for some time now. This week the issue ap- peared to have arrived at a conclusion when the resolution was soundly defeated in Council. 4320 Kingston Rd. ' wes! lit 1,w8 rence , .284-4721.

We have people who are interested in renting a portion of land from us on which they wish to erect a metal clad building. It is my un- derstanding that except for a provision for masonry construction in the aforementioned Site Plan Agreement that this type of building would be acceptable under Pickering By -Laws". Pickering Council this week decided not to allow this one deviation from the original agreement Counchllor Don Kitchen moved that the Harbour Company should be advised that the Council of Pickering endorsed the views of the Engineering and Planning staffs that the original Site Plan Agreement conditions should be adhered to.

Councillor Alex Robertson noted that at the Ajax and the Art Thompson arenas there is no charge for schools, and wondered if it were necessary for Pickering to charge schools for the use of the arenas. Councillor Bruce Searle said that he had also been contacted on this matter and thought it possible to dif- ferentiate between school functions (carnivals etc.) and groups of students booking through their teacher.

May 9th, 1974 PICKERING POST Published every Tharggay by WATSON PUBLISHING CO. LTD. Postal Address - Box 111, Agincourt. Ont. Publisher - R.M. Watson TELEPHONE 284-1767 Opinion Another Mistake The federal budget has been brought down by the Hon. John Turner and the opposition parties appear to be dissatified to the point where they will not support the Liberal government any longer. We concede that the budget has no overnight solutions to many of our problems, but it has attempted to assist those at the bottom of the economic ladderwhile taking it away from the rich. Mr. Turner is obvioush• convinced that the rapidly- hxTeasing inflation trend has been slowed and will soon be at a normal pace. The New Democrats are complaining about the lack of government intervention into the excessively high profits of some corporations and the Progressive Conservatives are using the lack of sufficient anti-inflationary measures to call for an election. An election right now would be a decided mistake however, as in our opinion, the public hasn't noticeably changed its mind from the last election. A new election precipitaled by the NCP could result very easily in that party losing some seats at the next vote. The Conservatives similarly are not really in a position to gain more seats. The price and wage control platform is not receiving much acclaim and Robert Stanfield's ability to lead a government is still debated in many areas. Any independent observer of Parliament during the last 18 months world state that this minority government seems to have given very good government with the only weaknesses still in the manpower and immigration department_ Un- fortunately, the mess left by Bruce Mackasy, has not been corrected completely by the Hon. Robert Andras. If we are to accept Progressive Conservative arguments about how to handle the economy. then we will have to be prepared to accept price and wage controls, which have proved to be unworkable both in the U-S.A. and Britain. A visit to the U.K. would convince anyone that we Canadians are very fortunate people. The statistical facts show that our inflation has been contained better than anywhere else in the Western World. Why is there inflation' Well the recent large increase has hit us in a delayed rebound from other lands. Economically expanding countries. -such as Japan, have created a great demand for food and other products. Our food production couldn't handle the demand because farmers have been leaving their work due to a return which is too low. Then the oil crisis hit us, and petroleum affects a vast number of commonly -used products - clothing and food to name only two. The federal government's best work has been to give en- couragement to more food production and redistribute money to those on less income. People from the U.S. and Britain are envious of how well we've handled this phase of our economy. The Liberal government's biggest deficit is its handling of manpower and immigration, but it is attempting to correct the errors of the past. Let's take a look at the New Democrats' arguments. They feel that the Liberals have allowed corporations to reap larger profits at a time when poor people are getting poorer. This is an area where your political philosophy comes out. We don't believe that socialist governments have produced more food or goods for its people. The oil companies have argued for much more profits in order to get money for further oil developments. If they use their profits for this work then it would be a benefit to everyone generally. Previously development money came from the sale of shares to the public but this source is a pparently drying up. If the opposition parties force an election they are not reflecting a need from the general public.

The POST, Pickering, Ontario. Dear Sir: The land speculation rare recently tabled at Queen's Park is cruel legislation which heavily penalizes thousands of rural land owning Ontario residents whom I suspect have no idea that they are being acted against. When the law is passed, these people will find they are subject to a tax of 50% on their lands when solei. The tax will be in addition to any capital gains tax they have to pay the Federal Government_ All of this amounts to expropriation of lands with little compensa tion. The following is a partial list of properties which are taxable: 1 t All lands owned by rural residents, unless the property is smaller than ten acres and is lived on. If it is lived on and greater than ten acres then it becomes taxable. 2) With few exceptions all rural income producing properties which are not a place of residence. The tax is unfair to farmers, lumbermen and other rural people who have worked all their lives on their lands and have their life savings tied up in this asset. You really have to stretch the imagination far to classify them as land speculators, as the title of the bill suggests. The government has stated that they intend on driving the price of real estate down by passing the land speculation tax and another tax of 20% if a rural resident sells any of his property to a foreigner. This, of course, will enable the government to buy rural lands at cheap prices. They have also conveniently worded the legislation to read that if land is sold to the Crown instead of private persons, the tax will not be payable. The government will now be in a position to force the farmer or lu nberman to sell his land to them. Land speculation and skyrocketing house prices is strictly a city problem. This being the case, why should the farmer and the rural resident have to suffer because of the situation in the big cities and surrounding areas' It is unfair to harness country people with this legislation. These laws should only cover certain cities and towns and not the whole province. Yours truly, Marvin Lee, 140 Erksine Ave., Apt. 2818, Toronto. Summer Enterprises Aided By Loans Enterprising students who would like the opportunity to work for themselves this summer may get their chance, thanks to "Venture Capital," part of the Ontario Govern- ment's "ExperiencO '74" summer employment program. Students who qualify will receive financial assistance in setting up their own small businesses for the summer months. It comes in the form of interest-free loans, up to $1,000 per venture. "Venture Capital" is administered by the Ministry of Colleges and Universities with the assistance of the Ontario Chambers of Commerce and the Royal Ba nk of Canada. Interested students s elect a venture and prepare an analysis of its business potential with the help of members of the local Chamber of Commerce. These analyses are forwarded to a provincial panel for approval. Successful applicants then receive an interest-free loan to cover the starting costs of their operation. The loans arefree of interest fortheduration of the project All monies made by thes tudents. after expenses are paid, remain them own. Projects that might qualify for "Venture Capital" Difference Narrowed In Pay Rates That the difference between average Canadian and United States labour income was almost cut in half during the 1960's is one of the trends indicated in a study of labour income released today by Labour Canada. The report says that while labour income per worker in the U.S. exceeded that in Canada by 21.8 percent in 1%1, the difference was done to 12.7 percent by 1971. Titled "Canadian Labour Income - Recent Trends, The Current Picture", the 54 -page report covers the period 1961 to 1972. The report contains new data compiled since the publication of two earlier reports prepared,in the Department, "The Behaviour of Canadian Wages and Salaries in the Postwar Period" and "Wages in Canada and the United States, an Analytical Comparison " The report says that the wage differential between skilled and unskilled jobs appears to have been fairly stable since 1960. in contrast to a distinct narrowing in the immediate postwar years. There was also little change in the structure of industrial wage differentials, except the wages in construction rose more than wages in other industries. The pattern of regional and provincial differentials within Canada was almost the same in 1972 as in 1965, notes the report. Average weekly earnings in British Columbia continued to be 10 percent above the average, while in the Atlantic region they were a bout 16 percent below, with Quebec three to four percent below, Ontario about four percent above, and the Prairie provinces about four and one-half percent below the average. The report does not try to explain the existing wage structureorchangesin it, although departmental research is continuing into these and other aspects of wage behaviour. a ssis to nce a re limited only by the imagination of the students a ndcurrent market conditions in thelocality. Preference will begiven to those projects that do not compete directly with business es already established in a given community. Examples range from cutting firewoodio taking baby pic- tures and might include landscaping, house painting, pet care or even vegetable farming. The main thrust of "Venture Capital" is to give community college and university students a chance to gain valuable business experience and, hopefully, to earn money at the same time. The amount of remuneration gained will hinge directly on the amount of planning and effort students put into their businesses. To ensure that ventures are operated in a business -like fashion. students will utilize a standard record system and prepare periodic progress reports. In addition, a local group of businessmen will make themselves available to students as consultants. "Venture Capital" is only one of many projects that together make up the Ontario Government's "Experience '74" summer employment program. Designed to provide over 7,000 experience -oriented summer jobs to Ontario students, "Experience '74" is co-ordinated by the Ontario -Youth Secretariat with individual projects administered by the various Ministries of the Ontario Government. Reclamation Bernard Newman (Liberal MPP for Windsor-Walkerville) has introduced a Private Member's Bill to establish an Ontario Waste Disposal and Reclamation Commission. "The Bill proposes a utility similar to the Hydro Com- mission, to provide solid waste disposal and reclamation services throught the Province, including incineration and landfill", said Mr. Newman. "Municipalities which do not have the financial resources for elaborate waste collection systems would be assisted by the Provincial Government, through the Commission, in much the same way as municipalities receive Provincial assistance with other projects. -West Shore News- by Diane Matheson LADIES'SOFTBALL Well girls, it's that time of year again when we realize just how bad a shape we're in.

What species of fish will they encounter, where will they find them, what is the best time of year to fish for them and what bait and tackle is most likely to result in a rewarding creel? These questions are cer- to inly a sked by a ll fishermen visiting Ontario for the first time. But here it's a bit tougher to come up with the answers. Boasting 250,000 lakes and as many rivers and streams, Grubs 8 Weeds properly fertilized grass gets a jump on weeds in the spring, and then about the only problem is grub activity which reduces the vitality of the grass to a point where it cannot compete. The first indication of grub activity is brown patches in the lawn. These spots will quickly fill with weeds. To make certain this doesn't happen, treat those patches with a good grub killer such as "CIL Chlordane Ant & Grub Killer". Th is should be done early in the season, and will likely have to be repeated every two or three years as the lawn can be re- infected from nearby in- fested areas. If brown patches developed in the lawn last fall, par- ticularly after the dry season in July, it is necessary to WHITE SIRCH TREES CEDAR TREES All Stas SPRUCE a PINE fm: Quandt, Au titan M. K.

The grubs eat the roots, and while their activity may not be evident u rider n orma 1 conditions, the grass is under particular duress in thedry seasonand is very susceptible to grub damage at that time. Any indication of an ant or grub population should be treated early in the season before the grass is damaged or the population has an opportunity to increase. Ant and grub killer can be efficiently applied with a "CIL Hose -End Lawn and Soil Sprayer.- This inex- p ensiv e sprayer attaches to the end of the garden hose and meters the correct amount of water with the product. "CIL Ant & Grub Killer' come s in a 16 oz. bottle, and five to nine oz. when mixed with 15 gallons of water. is enough to cover the average size lawn.

It is ideal for use any time broadleaf weeds are a problem There is no advantage in spraying the lawn with weed killer before the weeds emerge as it kills by being absorbed by the plant. Results are best when the application is made when the weeds are growing actively, and the temperatureis about 50 degrees F. Wait several days after mowing the lawn before applying weed killer a nd d on of apply when rain is forecast Care should be taken to avoid wind drift of the spray onto flowers, vegetables and ornamentals. Ornamentals include shrubs, and trees, particularly birch, evergreens, junipers, etc. CIL Lawn Weed Killer can b e a pplied with a "CIL Hose - End Lawn and Soil Sprayer". These sprayers. which are attached to the end of the garden hose, are calibrated to ensure the correct mixture is applied. Application is fast and easy. A 16 oz. can of "CIL Lawn Weed Killer" will cover 6,400 sq. ft., which is an average size lawn. Ant and grub killer, lawn weed k iller and the hose -end sprayer are among 10 new pest control products from Canadian Industries Limited this year. They are available at all quality garden centers, and in certain hardware and department stores. In using any pest control product it is important that the directions on the label regarding use, storage and handling be followed carefully. the province offers a fisherman's heaven that's hard to beat The variety of sport fish and the wide habitat range of most of them make it impossible to list all the hotspots and local bait preferences. But, there are time-honored - or just - discovered -spots for the nine most -often -sought sport fish and tips that will help get the most from a fishing trip. If you have chosen to seek that most savage of all Ontario fish, the maskinonge, or muskie, proper tackle is of prime importance. Unless an angler is familiar with these fight -crazed fish - which often top 40 pounds - he is advised to use line testing 30 pounds and up. Best month for muskie fishing is Sep- tember, with June a close second. Most productive method is trolling a large sucker or jointed plug of from six to 15 inches in length. Muskies range through the Kawartha Lakes. Lake Nipissing. Lake St. Clair and Lake of the Woods in nor- thwestern Ontario. The real die-hard muskie fisherman has added to his fun by turning to the lighter 12-14 pound test lime, spinning gear and bucktad spinners for near -the -surface casting action. One of the province's easier sport fish to catch, but one nevertheless which should never be maligned, is the ever -abundant northern pike, fast cousin to the muskie. Pike are wide- spread across the province and are really tops in the Georgian Bay, Savant Lake, Red Lake, Pickle Lake and Kenora areas. They can be caught nearly any time of the year with spinning gear and varying sizes of wob- bling spoons the favored tackle. Walleyes, often incorrectly thought to be part of the pike family and misnamed pickerel, are considered by most to be the tastiest of Ontario's sport fish Trout fanciers put up a good argument but it's hard to argue with a fresh -caught walleye fillet, dipped in egg, rolled in cracker crumbs and fried over an open fire. These golden members of the perch family are at their best in May and early June in the Lake Nipissing, Lac des Mitles Lacs, Thunder Bay and Lake of the Woods areas. Spinning gear and minnows account for the majority of the limit catches. None of Ontario's trout could win preference over the others, as all offer top sport at different times, at different places and with different methods The spring run of rainbow trout in the Georgian Bay area is renowned. Also popular are streams running into Lake Superior and Lake Huron itself. Another run in the fall offers equal fishing opportunities and action. Spinning gear with spawn bags or small spinners usually results in rainbows taking to the air with never - to -be -forgotten attempts to throw the hook. Brock trout, or speckled trout, are tops in the spring but can also be found in good fighting spirit when the waters again turn cool in late summer and early fall. With these scrappy trout the fly fisherman comes into his own. Here's the real challenge for him. Found in the greatest numbers throughout Algonquin Park in the south as well as the Lake Nipigon area, this colorful and tasty trout fats equally as often to the spin fisherman. . Lake trout are the lunkers of their family. While not usually known for out- standing fighting ability, lakers redeem themselves with outstanding size. Most abundant in the North Bay, Sault Ste. Marie and Kenora areas, lakers are sought twice during the year and by two fishing methods. In early spring, just after ice -out, these fish can be taken near the surface on rocky shoals with spinning lures. Later, during the summer, it requires wire line, trolling tackle and large spoons and minnows to entice them from the deep cool waters in which they seek refuge. For the man who has refused to change from his tried and true level -wind casting outfit to the newer spinning and spin -cast outfits. the large -mouth bass is ready-made. Hitting mainly on noisy surface lures or live frogs cast among the lily pads, the largemouth provides un- forgettable top -water antics. The really hot weather of mid -summer finds the largemouth addict heading for Georgian Bay and the Rideau Lakes, haunt of Ontario's greatest largemouth population. Smallmouth bass, again, are most often sought in mid- summer. There aren't many baits or lures this fish won't take but favorites include spinners. worms, crayfish and minnows. Hotspots include the Kawa rtha Lakes, Long Point Bay in Lake Erie, Pelee Island and Lake Simcce. Spinning gear is the answer for more fighting action with these popular game fish. The list of sport fah to be caught in Ontario doesn't end here. There are whitefish, herring. perch, smelt, catfish, bullheads and more.

The grubs eat the roots, and while their activity may not be evident u rider n orma 1 conditions, the grass is under particular duress in thedry seasonand is very susceptible to grub damage at that time. Any indication of an ant or grub population should be treated early in the season before the grass is damaged or the population has an opportunity to increase. Ant and grub killer can be efficiently applied with a "CIL Hose -End Lawn and Soil Sprayer.- This inex- p ensiv e sprayer attaches to the end of the garden hose and meters the correct amount of water with the product. "CIL Ant & Grub Killer' come s in a 16 oz. bottle, and five to nine oz. when mixed with 15 gallons of water. is enough to cover the average size lawn. Oncetheants and grubsare taken care of the next problem is the a me rgence o f the broadleaf weeds such as dandelion, pla nta in, chick- week,clovers, etc. Norma By these weeds appear about the first of May. As soon as they emerge they should be trebled with a weed killer s uch as "CI L La wn We ed Killer." Thisisa highstrength weed k iller c orrp osed of 2.44) and Mecoprop, that controls the hard tokill broadleaf weeds as well as the common ones. It is ideal for use any time broadleaf weeds are a problem There is no advantage in spraying the lawn with weed killer before the weeds emerge as it kills by being absorbed by the plant. Results are best when the application is made when the weeds are growing actively, and the temperatureis about 50 degrees F. Wait several days after mowing the lawn before applying weed killer a nd d on of apply when rain is forecast Care should be taken to avoid wind drift of the spray onto flowers, vegetables and ornamentals. Ornamentals include shrubs, and trees, particularly birch, evergreens, junipers, etc. CIL Lawn Weed Killer can b e a pplied with a "CIL Hose - End Lawn and Soil Sprayer". These sprayers. which are attached to the end of the garden hose, are calibrated to ensure the correct mixture is applied. Application is fast and easy. A 16 oz. can of "CIL Lawn Weed Killer" will cover 6,400 sq. ft., which is an average size lawn. Ant and grub killer, lawn weed k iller and the hose -end sprayer are among 10 new pest control products from Canadian Industries Limited this year. They are available at all quality garden centers, and in certain hardware and department stores. In using any pest control product it is important that the directions on the label regarding use, storage and handling be followed carefully. the province offers a fisherman's heaven that's hard to beat The variety of sport fish and the wide habitat range of most of them make it impossible to list all the hotspots and local bait preferences. But, there are time-honored - or just - discovered -spots for the nine most -often -sought sport fish and tips that will help get the most from a fishing trip. If you have chosen to seek that most savage of all Ontario fish, the maskinonge, or muskie, proper tackle is of prime importance. Unless an angler is familiar with these fight -crazed fish - which often top 40 pounds - he is advised to use line testing 30 pounds and up. Best month for muskie fishing is Sep- tember, with June a close second. Most productive method is trolling a large sucker or jointed plug of from six to 15 inches in length. Muskies range through the Kawartha Lakes. Lake Nipissing. Lake St. Clair and Lake of the Woods in nor- thwestern Ontario. The real die-hard muskie fisherman has added to his fun by turning to the lighter 12-14 pound test lime, spinning gear and bucktad spinners for near -the -surface casting action. One of the province's easier sport fish to catch, but one nevertheless which should never be maligned, is the ever -abundant northern pike, fast cousin to the muskie. Pike are wide- spread across the province and are really tops in the Georgian Bay, Savant Lake, Red Lake, Pickle Lake and Kenora areas. They can be caught nearly any time of the year with spinning gear and varying sizes of wob- bling spoons the favored tackle. Walleyes, often incorrectly thought to be part of the pike family and misnamed pickerel, are considered by most to be the tastiest of Ontario's sport fish Trout fanciers put up a good argument but it's hard to argue with a fresh -caught walleye fillet, dipped in egg, rolled in cracker crumbs and fried over an open fire. These golden members of the perch family are at their best in May and early June in the Lake Nipissing, Lac des Mitles Lacs, Thunder Bay and Lake of the Woods areas. Spinning gear and minnows account for the majority of the limit catches. None of Ontario's trout could win preference over the others, as all offer top sport at different times, at different places and with different methods The spring run of rainbow trout in the Georgian Bay area is renowned. Also popular are streams running into Lake Superior and Lake Huron itself. Another run in the fall offers equal fishing opportunities and action. Spinning gear with spawn bags or small spinners usually results in rainbows taking to the air with never - to -be -forgotten attempts to throw the hook. Brock trout, or speckled trout, are tops in the spring but can also be found in good fighting spirit when the waters again turn cool in late summer and early fall. With these scrappy trout the fly fisherman comes into his own. Here's the real challenge for him. Found in the greatest numbers throughout Algonquin Park in the south as well as the Lake Nipigon area, this colorful and tasty trout fats equally as often to the spin fisherman. . Lake trout are the lunkers of their family. While not usually known for out- standing fighting ability, lakers redeem themselves with outstanding size. Most abundant in the North Bay, Sault Ste. Marie and Kenora areas, lakers are sought twice during the year and by two fishing methods. In early spring, just after ice -out, these fish can be taken near the surface on rocky shoals with spinning lures. Later, during the summer, it requires wire line, trolling tackle and large spoons and minnows to entice them from the deep cool waters in which they seek refuge. For the man who has refused to change from his tried and true level -wind casting outfit to the newer spinning and spin -cast outfits. the large -mouth bass is ready-made. Hitting mainly on noisy surface lures or live frogs cast among the lily pads, the largemouth provides un- forgettable top -water antics. The really hot weather of mid -summer finds the largemouth addict heading for Georgian Bay and the Rideau Lakes, haunt of Ontario's greatest largemouth population.

May 9th, 1974 THE POST Report From Queen's Park by William Newman, M.P.P. Ontario South Living in Ontario South, we are influenced greatly by Metropolitan Toronto, and, as such, have felt the squeeze of inflation not only at the grocery store and in clothing our families, but in the cost of housing. Recognizing that inflation is a serious problem, Ontario's 1974 Budget takes definite steps to: - offset the effects of inflation; restrain inflation; - stimulate supply; - share with the public the profits from inflation; - share resources with local governments. Firstly, in an effort to stablize land prices and recover for the public a major share of windfall gains from land speculation, a land speculation tax went into effect April loth. This tax imposts an additional 50% tax on the increase Invaluerealized on the sale of land. Over and above this tax, normal personal and corporate income taxes will apply. I am pleased to see this tax come into effect as it should be effective in discouraging the buying and re -selling of properties without any real value being added. I must add, .however, that it is not the Ontario government's intention to discourage development and construction of industrial, commercial or residential buildings.The following exemp- tions, therefore, have been provided for: - sale of property for commercial and industrial purposes; property where the vendor has complied with a sub- division agreement or has bought serviced land and con- structed residential or commercial premises; - homeowners are exempt for their principal residence including 10 acres of land; -family farms a re exempt when they are transferred within the family and continue in agricultural use. Control of another aspect of rising land prices, i.e. large- scale acquisition of land by non -Canadians, will be controlled by a land transfer tax. Non-residents purchasing property in Ontario are now taxed at 20%. More specific details of both these taxes are included in the budget which can be obtained from the Ministry of Treasury, Economics and Inter - Governmental -Affairs, Frost Building, Toronto. Last year, Ontario municipalities received directly large provincial grants that enabled them to either hold the line in property taxes or reduce them. This trend is continued this year with the Property Tax Stabilization Program. The total amount of the provincial grants is $124 million, and will hold property tax increases to an average of 3.2% instead of 10% across the province. Being located in the Regional Municipality of Durham, the municipality receives a property tax stabilization grant while the three lower tier municipalities receive separate grants over and above the regional one. I thought it would be of interest t o y ou to see w ha t these estimated grants a re: Durham $743,000 Ajax $590.000 Picken ng $571,000 Whitby $703,000 There are many more details of the budget that I would like to discuss with you: the GAINS program, increased tax credits. more exemptions in retail sales tax, increased mining and timber taxes. I will talk about these in next week's column. I began discussing with you in last week's column parts of Ontario's 1974 budget, specifically thosedesignedto curb the rising cost of land and housing. The land speculation tax, the land transfer tax and the Property Tax Stabilization Program will affect Ontario citizens indirectly; the budget, however, does contain many other measures that will benefit us directly. By the beginning of May, we should a Il notice a difference in our drugstore and grocery bills. The retail sales tax will be removed from any cleaning and personal hygiene items. Retail sales tax will also be removed from shoes and other footwear costing less than $30. It is estimated that this will include most children's shoes as well as lower priced skates CANADA S ND. 1 /CE SIM TING CENTRE.

It is important to note that Ontario's exemptions are more extensive than those granted by any other Canadian province exploying sales tax. I was particularly pleased for the senior citizens in Ontario South to hear Ontario's new Guaranteed Annual Income System (GAINS) announced in the budget. GAINS will guarantee an income of $50 a week for all single persons and `$100a week for a ll married coupies wh o a re a ged 65 a nd over. GAINS will also apply to those who are blind or disabled and receiving Family Benefits. Under the program, a single pensioner with no private income would receive Old Age Security and Guaranteed Income Supplement for a total of ;191.06/ month. GAINS would contribute another $25.61 for a total of $216.67 a month. Magi edpensioners, alsowith no private income, would receive $433.33 a month. Single pensioners, therefore, have a guaranteed income of $2,6000 a year and couple, $5,200 a year. This represents the highest guaranteed income for senior citizens. The fust GAINS cheques will be mailed in July this year. Senior citizen's income will also be augmented by a new program for prescription drugs. Starting in September, all those receiving the Guaranteed Income Supplement (and Provincial assistance programmes) will receive free prescription drugs. I know how costly prescriptions can be and welcome this step by the Ontario government. Other highlights of the budget are: (1) the property tax credit will be doubled to $180; (2) the Pensioner Credit will be increased to $110 - Financial support of public transit in- creases to 50% of operating losses; (3) Venture Investment Corporations will help small businesses to obtain, at reasonable cost, venture equity capital; (4) Ontario citizens will receive a larger share of profits from mining and forestry resources through new mining and timber taxes. I am very pleased with Ontario's L%4 budget. It is an example of the Ontario government's determination to take forceful action against inflation As Treasurer John White said when presenting the budget, "The Government of Ontario is willing to use every practical measure ... to combat inflation. This is our promise and this is our challenge." WHY PAUL WILLISON CARS COST YOU LESS During 1973 we x $43 leas an each new vehicle sold than the awr+o� vollsro deaim in Ontario.

On his Doctor's advice he is apparently going into consulting, and hopefully this work will not be quite as pressing as his present work for the Town. Both Councillor Kitchen and Mayor George Ashe said that they wished Mr. Willis every success in his new field, and the best of health in the future. Another reason for changes in a lot of Pickering Staff, Councillor Kitchen said, is that under Regional Government the respon- sibilities left with the local municipalities have been diminished and therefore there is no longer such a great challenge at the local level. Mayor Ashe noted that while many local municipal employees are now em- ployed by the Region, the local municipalities should still be able to benefit from their expertise, but not in quite such a direct manner.

New Agreement Between Pickering And Board Of Education A 1971 Agreement between the Corporation of the Township of Pickering and the Ontario County Board of Education concerning the -construction and main- tenance of a swimming pool at Dunbarton High School has been amended by the Council of the Town of Pickering and the Durham Board of Education. Mayor George Ashe ex- plained that under the original agreement there was provision for the School Board to pay percentage on the hours of use and costs of running the pool. Several differences arose out of this on how the pool should be run, and related expenses. The School Board presently operates the Vanier Pool in Oshawa, and under the amended Agreement they will submit audited costs for the Vanier Pool and will pay that cost plus 10% for the Dunbarton Pool. Prehistoric Monuments A Continent Apart In Europe these simple forms of megalithic tombs can usually be guaranteed to intrigue Canadians visiting the old continent for the first time. Called dolmens, they consist of large capstones and three or more supporting uprights. The two examples pictured here in photos by Jack N. Oldham were taken a continent apart. Top, a tourist examines one in a farm field in southern Ireland where they are often called Giants' Tables of Druids' Altars. Below is the Strandza dolmen in the garden of the museum at Bourgas on Bulgaria's Black Sea coast. It was moved to the s ite f rom a small Bulgarian Village to preserve it. Dolmens such as this were used by theThracians for tombs around the 8th and 7th centures B.C. Dolmen capstones are often of enormous size, giving rise to wonder about how they were ever placed in position. A dolmen a t Kilternan, Co. Dublin. Ireland, for example, has a capstone measuring 23 feet long by 17 feet wide by six feet thick. Mix in or water -in thoroughly before you plant.

What he couldn't have foreseen was that this piece of wit would ring rather hollow in 1974. Today, more people are drinking more. When the province of Ontario lowered the legal drinking age from 21 to 18, it increased the number of drinkers by eight per Fent. In Ontario, alcohol plays a part in half of all auto accidents, ac- counts for hundreds of thousands of man-hours annual absenteeism from -work, and for more than 10 per cent of all hospital costs. This is not to suggest that anyone who takes an occasional drink is on the road to ruin. But the step from regular or heavy social drinking to a dependents on alcohol is not all that steep. There are three main reasons why people are drinking more — in Canada. about 30 per cent more than they did 25 years ago. Alcohol is cheaper lin relation to income) than it's ever been: real or imagined social pressures persuade people that they need some kind of drug — and alcohol is a socially accepted and legally available one: and thirdly, the brewers, distillers and vintners aim at convincing us that it's fashionable to drink. Look at all those bronzed canoeists and balloonists quaffing in the ads. But in reality, in Ontario today. close to 300,000 people drink enough alcohol to endanger their health. What that rmeans is a daily intake of about mine ounces of spirits — or the equivalent in beer or wine. Alcohol abuse exerts a tremend- ous toll on lite and health in our society, contributing not only to diseases like liver cirrhosis, peptic ulcer and pneumonia, but also to car and fire accidents, family break- ups, and suicide. While the effects of drinking vary from individual to individual, ex- perts in alcoholism say that it is not the type of beverage or the mixing E 6RCOW0W9 • Golfers, sardemers and other types can take heart! Warm weather is definitely on the way. For a little spring zing in your menu, serve these Ham and Cheese Stacks. For four sand- wichcs, butter eight slices of bread. Spread the unbuttered sides of four slices with pine- apple -cheese spread. Place a slice of cooked ham over the cheese and add a slice of ched- dar cheese to each. Close sand- wiches with remaining four bread slices, buttered side out. Cook on a heated griddle until bread is golden and cheese melts. ' Spring fever ism't always conducive to domestic pursuits such as planning. For quick, casy luncheons that also provide nutritous eating, try wieners or a variety of other sausage products. e Picnic lovers are beginning to pick up the scene of outdoor eating weather. It's not too early to get out the picnic basket and make sure it's stocked with paper plates, cups and other pharapher- nalia. Then keep the refrigerator stocked with wieners, lunchmeat and other quick -fixing food so you'll be ready when all systems of drinks, but the total consump- tion of absolute alcohol that really counts. It's also a matter of person- ality and attitude. Dependence on alcohol can creep up on the social drinker. Rather than drinking with friends and with meals, he begins to view drink as a relief from tension, as a regular part of his daily routine — as a social crutch. Soon, he becomes a gulper rather than a sipper, and finds that it takes increasing amounts of alcohol to achieve the same effect. He begins to take a 'belt' alone, and at more frequent intervals. Of course, not everyone makes the step from casual drinking to reliance on alcohol. But OWario's Addiction Research Foundation points out that certain characteris- tics mark the alcohol dependent person.

What he couldn't have foreseen was that this piece of wit would ring rather hollow in 1974. Today, more people are drinking more. When the province of Ontario lowered the legal drinking age from 21 to 18, it increased the number of drinkers by eight per Fent. In Ontario, alcohol plays a part in half of all auto accidents, ac- counts for hundreds of thousands of man-hours annual absenteeism from -work, and for more than 10 per cent of all hospital costs. This is not to suggest that anyone who takes an occasional drink is on the road to ruin. But the step from regular or heavy social drinking to a dependents on alcohol is not all that steep. There are three main reasons why people are drinking more — in Canada. about 30 per cent more than they did 25 years ago. Alcohol is cheaper lin relation to income) than it's ever been: real or imagined social pressures persuade people that they need some kind of drug — and alcohol is a socially accepted and legally available one: and thirdly, the brewers, distillers and vintners aim at convincing us that it's fashionable to drink. Look at all those bronzed canoeists and balloonists quaffing in the ads. But in reality, in Ontario today. close to 300,000 people drink enough alcohol to endanger their health. What that rmeans is a daily intake of about mine ounces of spirits — or the equivalent in beer or wine. Alcohol abuse exerts a tremend- ous toll on lite and health in our society, contributing not only to diseases like liver cirrhosis, peptic ulcer and pneumonia, but also to car and fire accidents, family break- ups, and suicide. While the effects of drinking vary from individual to individual, ex- perts in alcoholism say that it is not the type of beverage or the mixing E 6RCOW0W9 • Golfers, sardemers and other types can take heart! Warm weather is definitely on the way. For a little spring zing in your menu, serve these Ham and Cheese Stacks. For four sand- wichcs, butter eight slices of bread. Spread the unbuttered sides of four slices with pine- apple -cheese spread. Place a slice of cooked ham over the cheese and add a slice of ched- dar cheese to each. Close sand- wiches with remaining four bread slices, buttered side out. Cook on a heated griddle until bread is golden and cheese melts. ' Spring fever ism't always conducive to domestic pursuits such as planning. For quick, casy luncheons that also provide nutritous eating, try wieners or a variety of other sausage products. e Picnic lovers are beginning to pick up the scene of outdoor eating weather. It's not too early to get out the picnic basket and make sure it's stocked with paper plates, cups and other pharapher- nalia. Then keep the refrigerator stocked with wieners, lunchmeat and other quick -fixing food so you'll be ready when all systems of drinks, but the total consump- tion of absolute alcohol that really counts. It's also a matter of person- ality and attitude. Dependence on alcohol can creep up on the social drinker. Rather than drinking with friends and with meals, he begins to view drink as a relief from tension, as a regular part of his daily routine — as a social crutch. Soon, he becomes a gulper rather than a sipper, and finds that it takes increasing amounts of alcohol to achieve the same effect. He begins to take a 'belt' alone, and at more frequent intervals. Of course, not everyone makes the step from casual drinking to reliance on alcohol. But OWario's Addiction Research Foundation points out that certain characteris- tics mark the alcohol dependent person. Among them: inability to take family responsibility, lack of self-discipline, pre -occupation with oneself, feelings of sexual, social or parental inadequacy, negative attitudes towards zvehoritr, and limited interests.
