Safety Councilor Bruce Searle this week told the Executive Committee of Pickering Council that he is most concerned about the lack of adequate fencing around the construction site behind the IGA Plaza in Bay Ridges It is on this site that a 180 unit apartment block is being built. -There is a big hole" he said, '• and until proper fencing is erected 1 think we shouldmake a motion to close down the site.

Mr. Barron explained that there is a school bus pick-up on that corner and that he has ex- perienced considerable vandalism and litter problems for some time now. He told Council that students cut across the corner of his property and he has had to -repair the existing wooden fence on several occasions. The matter was referred to this week's meeting of the Executive Committee in order to allow Council members an opportunity to view the situation for themselves. At the possibility of Council's refusing Mr. Barron's request. Councillor Alex Robertson said ••I am not against enforcement of By-laws, but the rights of people and the protection of porperty are our respon- sibility and to just put aside this man's request is wrong. I feel that Council, the School Board and parents have an obligation to alleviate the I✓ vandalism where students are licked up. I think we should meet with the School Board. The corner in question is only one block away from a school, and the students could possiblly be picked up there.” Mayor George Ashe said that Councillor Robertson had made a `really nice speech'. However, the Mayor went on to say that he thought the motion not to allow the fence should be supported. "This is not a new problem- he said. It has been resolved to a degree by approaching the School Board. who in turn have moved part of the pick-up. The Police are also aware of the problem and have en- forced regulation. I do not thunk it is fair to motorists on Krosno to have to look at a five foot fence. Councillor Ken Matheson, agreeing with the :Mayor, said -If we allow this then we will have people saying they cannot see the road. - Although a 42 inch chain link fence was suggested, it was later pointed out that the existing By -Law in fact only allows a 36 inch fence.

Watsor TELEPHONE 284-1767 Opinion Decision Time In, Bob Watson The scene these days in Metro Toronto is becoming ridiculous. Every day our news media work up our emotions to appreciate the problem of U.S. draft dodgers. Yes, poor fellows they can't make their minds up whether to go back to the land they deserted and take the punishment or stay up here and give us the benefit of their indecision. Speaking as a native Canadian. I say to these Americans "make up your minds". Either they stay American and go back and face up to their medicine or become Canadians. not just in citizenship but also in mind and energy. But I believe we should be careful about taking these deserters into our family of citizenship. It could be in the future these same men who deserted their responsibilities in the U.S.. could also let us down in a moment of crisis In my opinion it is time for Canadians to force these Americans to decide. We want citizens who can take it through thick and thin and are not just with us when the going is easy. As a Canadian I'm not interested in criticizing these deserters for their moral decisions to leave the U.S. That was up to them. But I am gang to tell them what to do while they reside in Metro Toronto and continue their "griping" about U.S. regulations. We will. no doubt. be compelled to hear more about these exiles, as our tax -operated CBC seems determined to expend TV time each and every day on the latest "gripe" of the thousands of Toronto-based deserters. Perhaps a Canadian stony could develop which w ill allow us to learn more of other news iterns which are currently topical. Free The Public! The Civil Service Association of Ontario wants us to "Free the servants" - and what they mean by "freedom" is to have the right to withdraw provincial services from the public - and in addition the association wants a mere 61.5% raise in pay. Well we believe that the CSAO has just made a bad move because we feel that a majority of people prefer that civil servants not be allowed to strike. In fact, we sense that the majority of taxpayers would like to see a ban of strikes at all public levels - municipal, provincial and federal. Of course, we also believe that the public would like to see a better way of labour -management negotiations in order that the employees get a fair deal. Unfortunately• what seems like a fair deal to a provincial civil servant may not seem like a fair price to taxpayers. There seems to be a number of occupations at Queen's Park which are underpaid in relation to the same trade elsewhere. But if such large wage increases are to be made, then tax- payers are really going to expect a much higher degree of efficiency from these provincial departments. Many ob- servers feel that there is a number of employees who are surplus to the needs of a more efficient government. However, we can't see the public approving of the CSAO issuing an ultimatum that it either gets its way or it will defy provincial law and strike. More and more citizens are ex- pecting laws in this area to be enforced, and on this point we believe that the association has picked a poor time to be militant. Sour Grapes We must be dense, but we find it difficult to work up en- thusiasm for those locally -based groups which are deman- ding that we stop buying Californian grapes. We use sugar cut from fields in Jamaica and other tropical spots where the workers' pay is away off our standard. We buy oil from Venezuela where the poor are oppressed and hungry. 'Ne are not discouraged from buying clothes made in Taiwan, when our own garment people are out of work. What we are being asked to do is exert pressure on the California grower and government to change their ways. We are being asked to force California to have collective bargaining for its farm workers when Ontario farm workers don't "enjoy" such a privilege. An advertisement in the Toronto Star says: ......hundreds senselessly arrested because the powerful growers and politicians control the laws There is no justice." Well we hope politicians continue to control the laws. because under other groups. such as the local groups paying for these ads, we might have no grapes to enjoy at all. Perhaps the grape workers in California do have legitimate complaints. Frankly, we think Americans ought to decide Golfing hazards found in Bahama Islands actually welcomed by most golf enthusiasts THE RAH AM AIS—Water bazxds are one of those little devices invested to make Ior averne golfer lose bis leseper — sot to mestios Rolf balk.

Canada's First Woman Prime Minister Somewhere in Canada, a girl is growing up to become Canada's first woman prime minister. She probably shares certain characteristics with those other Canadian children, girls or boys, also destined to become leaders. They have a strong relationship with the parent of the opposite sex - the girl with her father, the boys with their mothers. Both parents love them consistently and without question. All children seek adult approval• and these kids are getting it in full measure from loving, supportive parents. They're probably growing up in an exceptionally open and broad-minded en- vironment. Their parents are opening as many doors as possible, and the children are likely to be self-confident and achieving. These are some of the points made in a for- thcoming episode of the award-winning TV series. The Human Journey. The hour-long special, titled leadership, will be seen on the CTV network on Sunday. September 29th. Singers The Bill White Singers came to life in 1966 as the Scarborough Centennial Singers. With the cessation of Centennial Year ac- tivities, the group decided to carry an under the name of their founder and director. The Singers have per- formed on numerous oc- casions throughout Metro Toronto and beyond.

Today, it's "Buy now - save later". In reality this is not a slogan. Nor is it a fact. But it could be a very good bet. According to the fourth edition of the Canadian Consumer Credit Factbork, the price of consumer durable goods has so far been the least affected by the inflation we have been experiencing. Between 1967 and 1973, durable goods' prices have advanced by only 8.3%. Compare that with the semi - durable goods' price increase of 16.8%, the nondurable this matter. After all they have powerful unions and church grqups who could carry the ball for the migrant workers. And the U.S.A. at last report, cad have elections in a democratic way. If Toronto citizens do stop buying grapes and therefore the Californian sales drop, we would think that the next step would be for the growers to stop picking grapes and the worker would be laid off. The next step after that is for the grower to cease business, if he can't sell his grapes. If the working conditions are so poor, why don't the migrant workers seek other employment' If the growers can't get workers, he will have to pay more and deal with his em- ployees better. If such a "boycott grapes" campaign were in action in the United States - "boycott Canadian beef" - we'd be highly aggravated. Or if our neighbour makes his children work diligently in the home without pocket money, should we in- terfere'. This boycott campaign raises a lot of questions which we feel have not been faced by people in the United Church, Roman Catholic Church, Anglican Church or Hebrew congregations - groups which are listed as supporting this campaign. ------------------------ Waste Broadcaster Peter Trueman told the Ontario Association of Homes for the Aged convention this week that we are wasting our most neglected treasure - older people. And he is right' Mr. Trueman suggests that those who dislike their work should beallow•ed to retire early and enjoy their hobbies. But he makes an excellent argument to allow those over 65 who want to work, continue. As Peter Trueman says, we can't get enough experience when we are young and then when we are older, experience is almost a liability. Perhaps it is time we take the minimum and maximum age limits off retirement to allow those who want to work to do so and those who find their jobs distasteful can retire. goods' price change of 33.4%. and the even bigger price change of 39.2% for consumer services. But those data are descriptive of what happened up to 1973. The question is. what will happeta in the future' There is strong evidence that cost-conscious Canadians ought to buy consumer durable goods now rather than in a year or two. The price hike in raw materals that is already in the cost pipeline has not yet been passed or td consumers. But it is coming - slowly but surely. The Factbook is published ny the Canadian Consumer Loan Association and the Federated Council of Sales Finance Companies. The clue to future price changes in consumer durable goods is contained within the price index of 30 basic industrial raw materials. Contained within the index are such materials as are traded on world markets and about which Canadian manufacturers can do little about. The 30 basic industrial commodities in the index contain such items as linseed oil, raw rubber. beef hides, iron ore, unbleached pulp, steel bars, sheets, and scrap, and of course crude oil. Between 1967 and the first quarter of 1974 the price index of these basic materials has increased by 88.3%. These price hikes are just now being fed into the production costs of the manufacturers and. together with other cost increases for wages and borrowed capital, will ultimately have to be passed along in the form of increases in wholesale prices and consumer prices. The general wholesale price index has already begun to show the effects of earlier rises in the industrial raw materials price index. Since 1967, the general wholesale price index has increased 64.8% to the end of the fourth quarter, 1974. In contrast, the consumer price index for all items has advanced only 38% since 1967, and it appears clear that the recent rises in the world prices of basic commodities have not yet seeped through in their entirety into the prices of the durable goods people buy. Raw material prices started to rise in 1972. That year prices rose by 12%. But the real increase came in 1973 when prices rose by 29%. But the increase for the first three months of 1974 was 23%. By way of contrast, the wholesale price index rose by less than A in 1972. During 1973, it began to catch up with a 21% increase and so far in 1974 there has been a 15% price rise. Changes in the consumer price index have been lagging far behi nd with a 5% 1972, and 8% price increase in 1973 and a 6% price increase to the end of the fourth quarter of this year. Unless something remarkable happens the consumer price index has a lot of catching up to do. If this analysis holds true, durable goods will be more ex- pensive in the future. Even if the prices of raw materials stay at their current levels• forward looking Canadians will buy their durable goods now at today's prices. Thurs. Sept. 26th, 1974 THE POST Page 3 DON VALLEY.

Hughes, Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food horticulturist. Repot the plants in con- tainers one to two inches greater in diameter than the root balls. Prune them to compensate for the loss of roots and to shape the foliage. Watch for insects, both on houseplants brought in from the garden and on those newly purchased. Until you are certain they are free from pests, isolate all plants, especially African violets. If you do not, aphids and whiteflies may quickly infect all the "clean- plants in your home, while spiders and scales can also cause RAY'S TREE SERVICE Tree Removal - Trimming Eayestroughs Hedges 266-8276 lkeed tipraymg.

Aerosol spray insecticides are available at most garden centers and are simple to use. Place a cardboard carton on its side, put the plant in it, and direct the mist into the carton. Hold the nozzle away from the plant so that "burning" will not occur. This method con- centrates the spray on the plant and avoids con- tamination of the rest of the room. Some houseplants can also be dipped in insecticides. The dip should be in a con- tainer large enough to take the whole plant. Hold a cloth over the soil in the pot and tip the plant upside down. Dip the foliage in the mixture. You should have no dif- ficulty in finding the right chemicals for your houseplant insect problems. Follow the package in- structions carefully and store the chemicals in a cool. ventilated and locked place. Kee them away fr m r o I children and pets. BLLIFE u� Bring Glads In Before First Frost Make time soon in your fall schedule to dig and store your gladiolus corms. "Dig them just before the first severe frost, preferably on a warm, sunny, October day," recommend U.B. McNeill, Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food hor- ticulturist. or- ticulturist. Gladiolus leaves should be left on the plants as long as possible. Either cut and clear away the foliage before digging to prevent thrips migrating to the corms, or cut the stems and foliage off about an inch from the corm after digging. "Cure your corms at 80 degrees F for two to three weeks to stall fungus diseases." advises the specialist. To control thrips, shake the corms in a paper bag with five percent car- baryl (Sevin) dust or dusts Dig Dahlias Just After Dahlias are susceptible to frost. and should be carefully stored for the winter, points out R.F. Gomme, hor- ticulturist with the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food. After the first killing frost, the stems should be cut down to within a few inches of the ground, and the roots carefully dug out to prevent damage. Then turn them upside down to air-dry for a day. The roots will store quite successfully in the cool temperature of the basement, provided it has some humidity and is frost - free. Covering the roots with dried peat moss or sawdust will prevent them from drying out.

M � Page 6 THE POST Thurs. Sept. 26th, 1974 Pickering Requests Meefin With Minister Of Environment Re Garbaae The Executive Committee of Pickering Council this week unanimously voted to seek a meeting between the Pickering Landfill Negotiating Team and the Minister of the En- vironment. It was also -requested that the Minister should press forward with a decision on the suitability or otherwise of the Brock North Site, and issue his findings as quickly as possible. A 2D0 acre parcel of land• close to residential property, on the proposed Brock North Site has not been approved by the Environmental Board for landfill use, and studies on the remaining acreage are currently being un- dertaken. However, concern has arisen from reports that despite the restriction on the 200 acres. Metro actually wants to use 'all' the site. The resolution came as a result of lengthy discussion, with Mr. David Newman of the Greenwood Ratepayer's Association getting the ball rolling by saying, "We, of Greenwood, are totaliv opposed to garbage sites in Pickering and Ajax. We are deeply concerned about the unsightliness and the proximity of the proposed site to residential properties in the Greenwood area. We -have written to the Ministry of the Environment and we have been told that their studies do not confirm that the Brock North site is suitable for garbage. We ask that those lands rejected as unsuitable by the En- vironmental Board should not be used for garbage. We need assurances from both Metro and Pickering Councils to protect the residents of Greenwood. We recommend that this Council should take the initiative in this matter, and we shall also continue in our efforts at the levels of the Minister of Housing. the Minister of the Environment and Metro Toronto. From what I have read it would seem that there has been a 'site switch' and we should know if previous Councils knew of this switch when they signed the documents... Councillor Alex Robertson was quick to come to the defence of past Councils saying "I have read the reports and can find nowhere any indication of a site swap without the knowledge of Council". Councillor Don Kitchen, who was on Township Council in 1968 when the agreement was made said "It is very dif- ficult to recall everything said six years ago. Basically, in our discussions with Metro, we were con- cerned with the financial aspects of the matter. The fact that the site was changed was not ever an issue with respect to Township Council." Mayor George Ashe said that Councillor Kitchen's statement was borne'out by the Town Solicitor's study from which it appears that the change became an ongoing thing through negotiations. "I think that to some degree we have to go on recollection" said the Mayor, "and it would appear that there was no wrong doing unless the Metro Committee went beyond their terms of reference." Referring to the reported inference that Metro may want to use all of the site, Mayor Ashe said "No member of Metro Council made that statement. It was made by a staff member, in a facetious manner, as he knows they cannot do it!" Councillor Kitchen also told the delegation of Greenwood Ratepayers' that "The Big Voice in this area is Bill Newman, Minister of the Environment, who has veto powers over any site un- suitable for garbage. He has the authority, now, to say publicly that no garbage will be dumped in that area." Mrs. Nora Geraghty also addressed the Executive Committee, saying that the Group Against Garbage had UNDERWOOD BROADLOOM'S CLEARANCE OF LINES Note: You'll certainly save a lot of $$ by buying NOW!

Fri. 9-9 30 been very disappointed at the results of the meeting between Ajax, Pickering and Metro. "Metro isusing Ajax and Pickering as a garbage pail" she said. "It should be possible to obtain a release from Metro of those lands restricted by the En- vironmental Board. It is hoped that we may also know why and how the Brock North Site was. included. In the opinion of G.A.G. Pickering has three options - a. to break the agreement; b. to appeal to the Courts to expunge the Brock North Site; and c. to seek a Judicial Enquiry." A Motion by Councillor Spratley for the release of the 200 acres was un- successful. The concensus of opinion was that it would weaken Pickering's case and give a false impression of conceding the rest of the site. "Why take one slice of pie when we want the whole thing?" asked Councillor Kitchen. To loud applause Councillor Alex Robertson said "I cannot support a motion that only covers Zoo acres and not the whole site. I want landfull stopped and that is what I will vote on'."
