Hallman hopes to lead way to non-smoking Mark Bryson Chronicle Stan Terry Hallman has vowed to do away with his pack-a-day smoking habit in 1986, hoping others at city hall will follow suit. Hallman, Waterloo’s personnel director, has tabled March 1 as the tentative date for his cold-turkey act. The move is geared towards taking the lead in the city hall initiative of providing a smoke-free environment for its workers. Public Employees are still unaware of the plan, but as a result of a report prepared by Hellman, the city will introduce a voluntary non-smoking program in 1986 to encourage employees to cease smoking in the workplace. As part of the program, the city will pay the costs incurred by an employee to a maximum of $100 towards any program recognized by the city that has as its goal the ending of the smoking habit. - Hallman says the plan will be put in place because of pressure from non-smokers who wanted city hall's act cleaned up. The pressure resulted in a survey in which Hallman received 76.2 per cent response from city staff. It revealed that 72 per cent of workers are non-smokers and 73.6 per cent would not be opposed to efforts to effect a smoke-free environment. While the results may be conclusive, Hallman says the city must tread lightly. "rt's a tough area to work with, we're going to have to be careful. The easiest way would be to ban it outright, but that would likely be the cause of Waterloo's first revolution." said Hallman. Following the year-long voluntary program, Hallman says he will conduct a similar survey near the end of the year to see if attitudes have changed. If so, further steps could be taken. "Over the next year, we'll be looking at establishing specific smoking areas and limiting it to break periods. One thing we'll have to keep in mind is that many of the non-smokers are concerned with taking away the rights of smok- ers," said Hallman. "The first year will be an education process." As for his own story, Hallman has put off his He feels the publicity given to drunk driving and the initiative of various agencies to offer transpor- tation for impaired drivers are just two of the many reasons the numbers are down. Between Dec. 17 and Jan. 1, 4,492 cars were stopped by RIDE.

The ironic twist to Hallman's story is that he started smoking because council meetings in 1973, his first year with the city, were an event where everyone seemed to be puffing on something. So he began out of "survival." There was also 574 warnings issued ranging from seatbelts to faulty headlights. 'TThen, of course, they promptly passed the bylaw prohibiting it," said Hallman. Terry Hallman has set March 1 as the tentative date of his last cigarette.

In all probablity, this income started when Mom or Dad said "if you will make your bed. . . or wash the dishes . . .or take out the garbage, etc. I will pay you-" Therefore, at an early age most of us began to utilize one of the ways to earn income. Later in life, we will get full-time employment, and earn an appropriate income in relation to our skills and work effort. But that "second" source ofincome is often neglected, Many people gd through life until they reach middle age or older and never think about es- tablishing a "second" income.

I've stated over and over again in these columns that a young person who would startsavingjust $50 per month at age 2l, assuminga 15% rate of return, will end up at age 65 being worth over $2 million. That $2 million. even taking only a [0% in- come from it, would produce a retire- ment income of $200.000 per year. lfyou watt until age 30to start build- ing that second income, by saving $50 monthly. you end up with a value of $600,000, which would. at 107r, give you an annual income of $60.(X)O per year. Quite a difference from the per- son who started nine years earlier, at age 21, who would have a "second in- come" of $200,000 per year.
