Buy Less, Sell More ON FOREIGN MARKETS ROBARTS URGES ONTARIO TORONTO -- If every citizen in Ontario reduced his purchase of -im- ported goods by less than half of what he is spending abroad now, 60,- 000 new jobs could be found for the province's workers, Premier John Robarts said last (Monday) night. Speaking over a CBC network of Ontario vadio stations, Premier Ro- barts explained that the average Canadian spends $236 a year on im- ported goods. This compares with $60 per person in Britain and West Germany, and $32. in the United States. "It is a general belief that $10,000 worth of business creates one job in Ontario industry," the premier said. "Using this as a yardstick, reduce our imports by $100 per per- gon, and manufactured $600,000,000 more a year, we would provide jobs for 60,000 people". Claiming that the Canadian content of many of our most important manu- factured products is "far too low", Mr. Robarts called this reduction in foreign buying " a minimum initial target to keep our economy expand- ing". "I propose it because economists predict that we must find that many jobs in Ontario every year for the next ten years", he said. Recent pegging of the Canadian dollar and the imposition of surtaxes give: Canadians an extra advantage in making imported goods more ex- pensive, said the premiér. "But to be effective, this program must have the full support of all", Mr. Robarts said. "The consumer can help by buying fewer imports and more Canadian-made products. Manufacturers can help by expanding théir markets through exports and reducing prices through volume pro- duction". Admitting that this description of Ontario's trade position may appear "somewhat forbidding", Premier Ro- barts said that efforts of the past few months "offer evidence that there is a place for Canadian products in the world markets'. ~The--premier announced that addi- | tional Ontario Government trade of- fices are to be added to those now in existence in Chicago, New York, Lon- don, and more recently, Dusseldorf, West Germany. N.H.L. All-Star Unfortunately, after 6 weeks of very dry weather, the rains came last Friday and necessitated the cancelling of the Official Opening of the Park and the appearance of the N.H.L. All- Stars. The Park Committee, under chair- man Roy Cornish, not to be dismayed by the set back, started working im- mediately on a new date. Secretary Howard Hall informed this paper Game Postponed NEW DATE SAT. AUG. 25th- this morning that after contacting Bobby Baun the earliest possible date would be Saturday, Aug. 25th. Our thanks to the many people who braved the rains on Friday night and turned out for the event only to have it cancelled.

Sonya, July 22--The Sonya Braves picked up two points from the Lind-' say Walkwood's here this afternoon, | without as much as swinging a bat. failed to field a team, and forfeited the points and $20 to the host Braves. This forfeiture may well signal the end of a U.C.LL. franchise, for what loop. Just two short years ago, Lindsay captured League laurels, and boasted two -ex-pros in a line-up of aggressive and reliable ball players. The same team lost in seven games to the Braves in last year's semi-finals, | amid protests from the Lindsay fans and players alike, that they'd take the Brave's measure in '62. But 62 has seen nothing but dissension and fail- ure, as the Walkwood's look up from the bottom of the heap. Many of The points were earned as Lindsay ; want them disappointed. has become the trouble spot of tho; last year's stars didn't return in '62, for reasons I can only guess at; those who did (in particular ex-St. Louis Cardinal farm-hand Andy Bushey) made valiant attempts to hold the, squad to-gether, despite a playing field, once the envy of all, that had become a black mark on Lindsay's | record, and the worst in the League by far. The twenty dollars that must be paid to the host team in penalty of forfeiture, is balm for the non-offending. team,. but. awhat of our rabid and faithful Sgnya Brave base- ball fans, the best in the Province of | Ontario. Some of our followers came from as far away as Brooklin and Oshawa and many' from Port Penry and Uxbridge, as well as those in the immediate district. Braves Remain Tied for Top With Little Britain We have built this host of fandom, by placing their interests high on our totem pole, of things that must be protected and cared for, and we don't So, take a long hard look at yourself, Lindsay. It's bad when you allow villages with a fraction of your population to beat you handily, but when you're too timid to compete . . . cheez! With the two gift points the Braves tied Little Britain with a 12-4 record and first place. Earlier in the week the Tribe suffered a 6-5 set-back at the Little Britain Club's hands. Mor- ley Davidson looked after the Brave scoring with a pair of 2-run homers. McTaggart bested Warriner in a fine- ly pitched contest. It was Warriner's first loss after six victories. Saturday at Sonya the Braves crept to within 1 win of Britain on the heels of a 12-11 verdict over the Sun- derland Tigers. Marv Hartin picked up his first win of the year, in relief of Doug McMillan in a wild contest that saw the Tigers turn a 4-10 de- ficit into a 11-10 lead going into the last inning, only to see the "Injuns" pound back with 2 and victory. Caw- ker, Healey and Warriner picked up 2 hits each, with one of Warriner's a 2 run shot over the right field fence. Saturday the Braves wind up their season's efforts with a game with Valentia. Game time is 6.45 for the last home game, before the play-offs. The Braves need this victory to as- , sure no worse than a first place tie.
