PAGE 18. WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 22, 1984, WHITBY FREE PRESS OTT1AWA - Despite the rantlng and ravlng of his collegues, Ontario RidIng MP Scott Fen- nels reaction to the recently brought down federal budget was sur- prising ho-hum. "'We had a budget, so what,"l the Opposition Progressive "Conser- vative frontbencher commented from his Ot- tawa office last Thur- sday afternoon. "It must of been writ- ten in the fog," he said, "There's some good ideas, but there's no legisiation, the only thing is the $50." Fenneil was referring to the $50 a month in- crease in the Guaran- teed Income Sup- plement paid to senior citizens. He does not even think that the government's annual economic statement was meant as an election ploy. "I think it's so bad that they couldn't get away with it, I mean it's not really a budget." However, in the true tradition of the Op- position, Fennell is con- fident that this party would have brought in a real budget. "'We would have put in incentives to get jobs created in the private sector," he saîd pointing out "1that until the economy gets moving we can't get out from under the deficit and the only way to get the economy moving is to get people, working again." In fact, his major criticism of the budget cornes in the form of a .startling statistie. "You know, the cost of the deficit this year equals the deficit when Trudeau took office." And because of that our local MP predicts a rise in interest rates not Budget non-event for Fenneli Auto Parts & Serviee EE Brake Inspection or F RE front end Inspection With lube & ohl change WE SERVICE ALL CARS & TRUCKS 317 HOPKINS ST.

Car Care Council says a well-rnain- tained vehicle is worth hundreds of dollars more at trade-in time than a ne- glected one. Appearance condition is a big factor. Here*s sonme advice of- fered by the Council on keeping up the appearance of your car: A weekly washing. with mild detergent or Just cool water. is vour tirsi step. Don*t do it in the hot suni and be sure vou've rinsed off aIl detergent. After your wash Job. give your car a close ex- amination lor surface rust and pain t chips. Cover thern with wax or clear nail polish until you can repair them properly with primer and touch-up paint. Wax your car whenever the paint begins to show dulling from the elements. Twice a year is a good practice. Use a good dlean-' er or. mild rubbing com- pound be fore appiying wax. Give the car a thorough interior cleaning about once a nionth. more olien if it begins to look dingy. This should include va- cuuming of carpets and wiping off the uphostery with vinvl cleaner or mnild uphosterv cleaner. depend- ing upon the type ol'interi- or. Clean all elass with a product that leaves no film. Just as with a house, a car tends to accumnulate dirt to a point where a cleaning job is miuch more dîlficult than il'il had been apply liquid wax. Ad- vanced rusting. usually first indicated by bubbling of the paint. may have to be treated by removing the paint to the metal in that area and doing a spot prime and paint job. Keep your vinyl roof' dlean. Because of the grain pattern. vinyl tends to col- lect dirt and road f*ilm -and should be scrubbed with a soIt brush and vinyl or leather cleaner. Then apply a vinvl protective coating. ava ilable at au tomnot ive supplv stores. Pay particular attention Io signs of' rust t'orrnation. Use chrome cleaner to re- move surf'ace rust. Then perl'ormied on a regular ha- sis. Don't delay collision re- pairs.
