R.M. A. Francis Gary Powers was the American pilot shot down over the USSR in a U-2 spy plane in 1960. The Soviets releas- ed him in 1962 and he worked for the CIA for a short while before moving to Los Angeles where he got a job as a radio station traffic reporter. He was killed in a flying accident in 1977. Q. What does the "D" in D -Day stand for? How about the "H" in H -Hour. A. The "D" in D -Day has so simple an explanation that it is hard to find verification of its source. According to the Dic- tionary of Word and Phrase Origins by William: and Mary Morris, the "D" in D -Day simply stands for "day". So D -Day literally means "Day -Day". Likewise, the "H" in H -Hour stands for "hour". Both term were first used by the military in World War I as code designations for allied offensives. The most famous D -Day. of course. is June 6. 1944, the day the allied farces began their invasion of Normandy in World War 11. Q. What is the source of the expression "OK"? S.C. A. This colloquialism has come into international usage but it is American in origin. In 1941 Allen Walker Read describ- ed in the Saturday Review of Literature how this expression began. In 1840 the supporters of Martin Van Buren, who was run- ning for a second term as president, organized a group in New York. Van Buren was born in Old Kinderhook, New York and practiced law there in his youth. During the political battles of the Jacksonian period he came to be known as the Red Fox of Kinderhook. This led to the nam- ing of the club, The Old Kinderhook Club, which was shortened to the OK Club and the expression OK became the watchword of the political campaign.

Aug. 5, 1187 Opinion a page for expression for you and us Campaigning Begins by Bob Watson Well, the provincial election is on and a lot of people will be campaigning during this warm, sunny, summa month of August to get their favourite party into power. It is our opinion that Premier Peterson made a mistake in calling an election in August as some voters will not be hap- py at having their holiday time complicated by politics. If there was some urgency to the matter people would unders- tand, but there is no emergency about this call to the polls. We believe that this early summa call will cost the Liberals some votes - maybe not enough to hurt - but it will cost some in any event. The liberals have the polls in their favour and being already in power have a decided edge on the vote. However, PC leader Larry Grossman is making lots of hay out of the calking of an election when the liberals could have stayed in power for another two years and saved $30 million in casts! The New Democrats sound awfully weak with leader Bob Rae strolling along Kew Beach this week and remarking that he would have spent lots of money on cleaning up the polluted waters. Our guess on the election result is a Liberal majority .. or . if the PCs campaign right and come uta with definitely different policies it is not impossible to predict another minority government! Most voters we talk to wound like the three parties to stop sounding the same - all socialists - and get back to their pro- per role in the spectrum of left. centre and right! The Majority Speaks It is nice to know that the majority of Canadians Will shout when some issues come tip - like the illegal im- migrants. IamI MPs have been swamped with phone calls for tougher legislation to control people landing on our shores unannounced. The minority can go to the United Na- tions and complain if it wishes but this tune the majority has voiced its feelings. Death Penalty Or Death Knell I have been standim quietly in the long shadow. cast across Canada by the Peace Tower in Ottawa, listening to the debate on capital punishment. I can still fed the chill even in these warm summer temperatures even though debate has ended. After the vote was cast. the roil call showed the four Members of Parliament from Scarborough - Pauline Browes. Bob Hicks. Paul McCrossan, the Rev. Reg Stackbouse - all voted in favour of capital punishment. I am sure they voted to follow the wish of their constituneats because the mail they received and the polls showed very decidedly in favour of the return of the noose. I really wonder if that is a good enough reason. Prune Minister Mulroney spoke so eloquently against capital punishment. Is there no comment from our lips on the Ten which Maces brought down from Mart Sinai. one of which said., '"Thou shalt not kill"' The executioner would only be the handmaiden of Parla- ment. and our MPs, in effect, would have. by winning the issue. tightened the noose around each neer and given the order. On whose hands would the blood be' - The executioner' The judge' The police? Or the MPs' What I find most disturbing is the number of "ayes" cast by MPs who are also clergymen. Can one see Jesus voting or speaking in manner'this Let us hope that we have now heard the death knell of the capital punishment debate. Let us also hope we will start to see enlightened legislation from Ottawa imposing penalties of retribution on the convicted who pays back in part at least, for the harm down by a criminal act. The innocent must be compensated. Surely, the public deserves something from this debate besides continued isolation of felons from society in general. I do not write this letter from a partisan point of view, just a moral one. Why kill someone who killed someone else to show that killing is wrong?

As Co4luuraman of the Human Services Committee for the City of North York. Vice -Chairman of the Special Education Consultative Committee for the Board, and as a volunter as well as spectator at the recent Ontario Han- dicapped Games, I want to acknowledge the fine way in which these games were organized and carried out. Certainty, the Organizing Committee under Chair Betty Ilndsay, the city, the ministry, and the many volunteers, all made these games, hosted this year by North York, a huge success.

Aug. 1, The Hospital for Sick Children in downtown Toronto will close its 370 -car parking garage. But don't panic! Parents with cars should head for Elm St. between Bay and Elizabeth. There's an indoor lot on the south side of Elm, and an outdoor lot at the northwest corner of Bay and Elm. If you've got a big car, Mend for the outdoor lot. Directions will be painted on the hoarding, which is presently under construction. Both lots are less than two blocks away. And parents on inpatient or ort - patient visits are still en- titled to a daily parking dis- count. The parking garage will be demolished along with the old nurses' residence on Elizabeth St. Later this fall, work starts on a 1,000 -space underground panting garage, slated to open in 1909. Thar, the new patient care centre goes up. It's scheduled to open in 1991. Sick Kids has more than 20.000 inpatients and mace than 240,000 outpatient visits every year.

T'I'C Loses Lost err Found Keeper For almost 33 years, Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) riders who have last items on the system have had a friend in Dave Lane.

Take Action Now Reg Stackhouse, MP Scarborough West, recommends that the government take steps to recwvene the House of Commons in view of the widespread concern about the possible admission of 174 East Indian migrants who landed in Nova Scotia on July 12th. Telephone calls to his Scarborough West office and door to door canvassing have impressed Stackbouse that the migrants are the number one issue in the rounds of his con- stituents. oo-stituents. This has been confirmed as a national priority by telephone calls and mail he has received from coast to coast. "People do not object to their being admitted if they are genuine refugees. But they are concerned about people gaining access to Canada just by landing on a beach and claiming to be refugees. They expect the government to take action. If new legislation is needed, they expect Parla- ment to pass it. I hope that the House will meet soon and that Bill C-55 will be supported by all parties. The public is fed up with excuses. It wants action now." _........... Give A Gift That Lasts All Year!

Windows can allow ex- cess sunlight into a home, raising the interior temperature significantly. To avoid this, use room - darkening drapes or blinds with a tight coloured lining an east and west windows. Leave drapes on east - facing windows in the afternoon or before laving for work in the morning. Another way to reduce sunlight is through the use of solar control films. These reflective films can be attached directly to the window or are available as rolling blinds. South -facing windows do not let in as much beat as east and west windows because the summer sun is high in the sky. This causes moa of the sunlight to be reflected off the glass or blocked by overhangs. It's best not to attach solar control films to south - facing windows because this can reduce winter beat gain. Roll -dawn awnings, or permanent overhangs should be used instead. Roof skylights often con- tribute to overheating because their sloped angle exposes them to the full brunt of the summer sum.

The incoming air evaporates the water and is cooled. To some, this idea conjures up romantic no- tions of hot Louisiana frights, and has a certain aesthetic appeal. Try to put off chores that generate bat or moisture until the coder parts of the day. Even reducing lighting can help. If you must cook or bathe during the hot afternoon, use bathroom and kitchen ex- haust fans to get rid of the hat and humidity, but turn them off promptly if you are using an air caudi- tianer. Finally, don't forget yourself. Eating light, and consuming less alcohol in hot weather can help you stay more comfortable. Wear lightweight clothing.

Therefore, while there is still an advantage to receiving dividend in- come over interest and employment income, the advantage has been significantly reduced. Finally, there have been major changes proposed to the taxation of capital gains. Effective Jan. 1, 1988, 66 2/3% of the capital gains will be taxable, in- creased from 50%. The new taxable portion, combined with the new lower tax rates, result in an effective top federal/provincial rate of tax on capital gains in- creasing from approx- imately 26% in Ontario in 1967 to about 30% in 1988. A further increase in the tax- able proportion of again to 75%, effective Jan. 1, 1990, will result in an effective top rate of approximately 34%. Also, the $500,000 lifetime capital gains exemption, fust introduced in 1965, will be limited to $100,000 on most assets. No restric- tions have been placed on the types of investments which can give rise to the gains qualifying for the basic $100,000 lifetime ex- emption. The net taxable capital pins otherwise eligible for the exemption after 1967 will be reduced by the amount of cumulative net investment losses claimed after 1967. This restriction will not affect an individual's cur- rent deduction for such ex- penses nor will it reduce the available lifetime ex- emption; however it will reduce the rate at which the exemption can be utilis- ed. In some circumstances, it may be advisable to ac- celerate the disposition of certain assets from future years into 1967. As a result of the reduc- tion in the rate of tax ap- plicable to Canadian dividends and the increase in the rate of tax applicable to realized capital gains, the existing preference for capital gains over other types of investment income has been effectively removed, except where such gains can be sheltered from tax through the capital gains exemption or the application of net capital loss carryovers.

Ontuio Riding For the last two weeks, 1 feel I have been constantly on the telephone listening to the complaints of my consti- tuents, on the government's actions regarding the 174 migrants larding off Nova Scotia. My constituency office has been deluged with dozens of calls every day, and everyone objects to allowing the migrants to stay in Canada. I want to go on record as stating I positively agree with their sentiments. One just has to look at any newspaper to understand that we are not alone in our feelings. The Canadian public as a whole, has been very critical of the manner in which these persons arrived in Canada. It has been suggested by many that these people should be immediately removed from Canada and be processed through normal immigration channels like any other immigrants wishing to come to our country. I understand their opinions, but unfortunately, our regulations do not allow us to do so. When the current Immigration Act was drafted in 1976 anyone in Canada, whether here legally or illegally, was given the right to: 1) a determination of their claim by the Minister; 2) a redetermination before the Immigration Ap- peal Board of any claim rejected by the Minister. These were not simply assurances or administrative ar- rangements but were rights established in the law which make it impossible to remove anyone until these rights are The more people who abuse the system, the more all yr, _ 9" ' •r.•...... a.:.:twit:::::::::;:•:::::••.:�:�_:�•:•::::•_��:e:•::�:r:�.::�:v:•::� Report from Queen's Park By George Ashe, MPP Durham West REFORM THE WORKERS' U MPENSATTON BOARD During the past couple of years, my constihrency office has had a growing list of complaints regarding the workers' compensation system. Complaints from employees have always been nunw roes but complaints from employers have significantly increased. The present Workers' Compensation Board does not offer fair and just compensation to workers injured on the job. In spite of all the reviews of the WCB that have taken 'phare over the years, including the Weiler Report, and in spite of the huge increase in staff over the pest decade, the present system still does not offer fair and just compensa- tion to many workers or, in many cases, fair and reasonable assessments to employers. On June 3, 1987, the Ontario Legislature supported a mo- tion put by Phil Gillies, P.C., M.P.P. from Brantford, to revamp the WCB. While work begins on the Royal Commission, Gillies and other M.P.P.s - Bill Barlow, Andy Brandt, Jim Gordon, Jack Pierce and Don Criers - have agreed to co-chair a Conservative Party committee that will formulate a new policy direction for workers' compensation in Ontario. The goals of the group are to create a platform for changes to the Waters' Compensation Board and to ad- dress the unacceptable status quo of the WCB. "The system is too complicated and costly," says Gillies. "While rehabilitation and health care costs rise annually, the cost of administration is rising at an equally alarming rate." Businesses are also strug1ling to keep up with the rising cosi of compensation premiums. Premiums range from about 30t per $100 of employee salary to as high as $37.50 per $100. Many smaller businesses are unable to keep pace with the ruing casts that are running well above the rate of inflation. "Considering the problem government, bsmess and employees have with the system, we should be able to reach constructive conclusions and design a WCB act that meets the social and financial concerns of both employers and employees," says my colleague Don Carseat, M.P.P. for Yat Centre. I would suspect that this will be one of the last, if not the last. Queen's Park Report for a while.
