'The matter of redistribution and the proposed split of the Provincial Riding of Ontario was discussed. A brief history of the practice and origin of redistribution as a means of ensuring popular government and not, as many people have the mistaken belief, of enabling the government to secure an advantage, was tendered by the Minister of Health, Dr. M. B. Dymond. The Royal Commis- sion Report containing the pro- posals for redistribution is al- ready on the order paper and should come before the Legis- lature within a few days. If adopted, the Report would create a net increase in the government of nine members. Dr. Dymond went on to ex- plain the problems facing his Department with regard to re- tarded children. Among the most urgent is the lack of quali- fied staff, a problem which the government is presently trying to remedy. A further and a soul-searching problem is what is the best way to deal with retardates. Although great ad- varices have been and are being made in teaching the retarded, with small exception there {is no cure for retardation known to medicine.
