Mosley Auctioneer and Proprietor Lawrence explained that the latest figures from $tatisitcs Canada showed that food and other prices had escalated in the past month and that this was damaging to the Canad- ian, econqrmy, especially to F those Canadians on fixed incomes. H1e said it was apparent government efforts hàd failed to control the upward spiral- ing of prices and that the government had not informed the House of its plans to fight inflation since the budget7in February. Mr. Lawrence said the House was expected to ad- journ shortly for many weeks, without opportunity to debate the critical and deterioriating situation. Motions under the standing order are rarely granted and Mr. Lawrence's was no ex- ception. The speaker pointed. out that fie must decide if the House would have another opportunity to debate the subjeet without setting aside its regular business., He noted that the committee on food price trends would probably be reporting to the House within the next week and this would afford a better opportunity to debate the issue., He said he was assuming the committee would report very soon, but if such a report was not forthcoming then the advisability of a debate under the standing order would be reviewed. Later in the question period Mr. Lawrence rose to ask a supplementary question of the Prime Minister. 1 will try to make it as simple as possible. How far does Canada's cost of living have to go up before the government will do something to haît it. he said. When Mr. Trudeau did not make a move to reply, Conserva tive MP George Hees called out "This is known as Liberal dynamiým."

Most of the considerable fortune he amassed was left to charity at his death. The Atkinson' Charitable Foundation he established has distributed more than $17 million to a wide range of charitable causes in Ontario over the past two decades. Although he lef t Newcstle 90 years ago, there are stili many in this village of 1,993 who remember Atkinson's gener- osity to his birthplace af ter be became a successful publisher Cecil Carveth, who was reeve during many of the Depression years in the 1930's was responsible for getting Queen's Park to recognize Atkinson's place in' history through an offical plaque. "H1e was an outstanding man,"' said Carveth, 81. The former reeve said The Star publisher used to match any funds rasied in Newcastle during the Depression years to buy Christmas gifts for child- ren of the unemployed. H1e said Atkinsonwas a firm believer in sei-f-reliance. "You had to help yourself before he would help you," Carveth said. "Mr. Atkinson always went out of his way to help villagers get a job," said Pauline Storks who operates a Newcastle dress shop. She recalled that when she was in high school there were only two places students on school trips to Toronto wanted to see - the Royal Ontario Musem and Atkinson 's news- paper. SA fire in Newcastle launch- ed Mr. Atkinson into a career in jouralism that was to make him one of the best-known and often most controversial fi- gures in the newspaper busi- nes. H1e went to work in a Newcastle woollen mill before his l4th birthday after the death of his mother, who had been running a boarding house to support her family. But the mili burned down throwing young Mr. Atkinson and 150 Others out of work. H1e secured another job briefly with the post office but at 18 jôined the Port Hope Times. H1e also worked with the World and the Globe in Toronto and the Herald in Montreal before he took over the faltering Torono Evening Star which he renamed and built into Cana- da's largest daily newspaper. Chester Massey was born in Newcastle in 1850 at a time when the Massey family's small plow manufacturing business was a mainstay in the village. Its departure in 1878 to Toronto, where it grew into a giant among the world's farm implement manufacturers, was a blow to Newcaslte. Only in recent years has the village's population exceeded the numbers of a century ago. The Massey gift of the imposing cut stone and red brick community hall with classical lunes comparable. to another Massey family endow ment, the University of Tor- onto's Hart House, helped Newcastle forget its loss. For the pasýt haîf century the hall has been the centre of much of the village activity. It houses the council chamber, municipal office, library, Hydro office and quarters for the Scouts, Lions and Masons. NO MOBILE HOME PERMIT Mobile homes and trailers OBITUARY Mrs. R. E.
