In the "managerial-professional- technical group there is only 15 per cent of the male population here as compared with 25 per cent in Metro gennerally.

This by comparison with the 10 percent average for Canada needing mental health help is. needless to say, appalling. There is some excuse for York municipal councils and school borads of the past not being sensed of the need for more and better staffed and equipped social service agencies to help cope with the problems of youth. The rapidly changing complexion of our population ethnicwise has been and still is a big factor. Today roughly 50 per cent of our people are of British origin. Of the total York population of 129,700 there are 23,600 Italians or 1512 per cent. The newly arrived immigrant groups, it is in- dicated, comprise 13 per cent or 16,700 people representing 44 different nationalities. Many of these, the report points out. are southern European in origin. The thorough way in which the York survey was carried out and the report on it by Geoffrey V. Brown. Regional Chairman. make it an in- controvertible challenge. The deplorable situation in respect of availalble services in York for troubled youth "can. only be called primitive", states the report. It is noted that Canadian metnal health statistics estimate approximately 10 per cent of theyouth populationofthis countryarein need of some form of mental health service. The local survey revealed that some 2.080 children were being served by agencies such as the Children's Aid Cradleship Creche. Family Service. the Cam.

' P k 13 Queen s ar iomment first effort in d Throne Speech Debate. In my opinion, Archdeacon Bolton's speech was so well put together, and is so im- portant in terms of the principles of life that it lays out, that I have decided to quote part of it for this column. He begins by suggesting to the Legislature that there is a message for the govern- ment in his election in Middlesex South. He suggests that the farmers, the Indians, and the labour force in that area are fed up with governmental action. He goes on to say: By Donald C.

We do well to remember that people under the age of 25 will soon form the majority of our population, and the reason that] refer to youth in that they are giving in- creasing evidence of their alienation from the society in which they live and they do this with very good reason. They find that we who are older are not listening. They find that we who are older seem unaware of the urgency of the times. They believe that we live in a world of words unmatched by action.

This in my view is part of the messsage of Middlesex South?' cation I speak as a conservative. I believe society has a duty to conserve many things. The ancient virtues of honesty, compassion and justice, for example. I believe that each generation has a duty to comerve the environment. This generation must answer for polluted streams and lakes, and ravaged land and poisoned air. What a monument to man is his use of the land committed to his charge, that in the name of private profit he has reaped so much public destruction.
