November 20, 1969 During the past two weeks I have been at the United Nations studying the prob- lem of Foreign Aid to under developed countries, as a member of a sub-Committee on External Affairs and Na- tional Defence. This was my first trip to the United Na- tions on any official assign- 'ment, and I must say that it was both interesting and re- warding. The first three days were primarily devoted ' to ac- quainting the members of the Committee with the func- tions of the United Nations and its various Committees. Many do not realize the ex- tent of Canada's financial contributions to the United Nations.. The operating costs of the United Nations are met by assessing the member Report nations in accordance with an agreed formula based on their relative capacity to pay. In 1968 Canada's share of the regular budget was 3.8 million dollars, or 3.029, of the total. This makes Can- ada the eighth largest con- tributor to the regular bud- get of the United Nations. In addition to the activi- ties covered by the regular budget, theyUnited Nations carries" out extensive pro- grams of economic and tech- nical assistance, aid for re- fugees, etc. These are fin- anced by voluntary contribu- tions of member nations. From March 31, 1945 to March 31, 1968, Canada paid assessments of about 41.8 million to the regular budget of the U.N. and of approxi- mately 15 million as its share of the cost of peace-keeping operations in the Congo and sary nutrients . . .

By the end of March, 1968, Canada had also absorbed costs of about 12.4 million without seeking reimburse- ments from the United Na- tions to maintain its peace- keeping contingents in Cyp- rus. From March 31, 1945 to March 31, 1968, Canada made voluntary contributions to special U.N. programs, such as the United Nations Devel- opment Program (U.N.D.P.), United Nations High Commis- sion for Refugees, United Na- tions Children Fund, United Nations Relief and the World Food Program of over 217 million dollars. In addition, Canada as a member of each of the thir- teen specialized agencies of the United Nations and of the International \ Atomic Energy Agency, was assessed and made contributions of about 90.7 million excluding contributions we made to the Bretton Woods Institutions. Therefore, Canada's total contributions to the United Nations & its related bodies, the LA.E.A. and the United Nations Association in Can- ada, total approximately 376.9 million during the period of March 31, 1945 to March 31, 1968. Our contribution to these bodies in 1968/69 will approximate at 336.48 million dollars. ' It is fair to conclude that Canada carries a great deal of the financial weight of the United Nations, and it is only fair to ask what happens to the money. I am satisfied '| that these expenditures are well worth it and that the U.N. in fact does play a very important role in the vor today. I think it is important to | realize that the United Na- tions main preoccupation is peace. First of all, preser- vation of peace of its peace- keeping activities, and seec- ondly the elimination of the causes of war. In other words, one is peace-keeping and the other paece-building. In the peacekeeping area there have been sbme suc- csses and some very notable failures, such as the Middle: East & the Nigerian-Biafran conflict to take only two ex- amples. However, there have been successes as well, such as in Cyprus, the Congo, Korea, and other troubled spots. The real successes how- ever. are rarely ever men- tioned, sych as enormous work that is done in the de- vloping nations to make them self sufficient and self sup- porting, in order to assist To The Electors Of The TOWNSHIP of REACH For the past, two years | have served this Township as Councillor. | now respectfully solicit your support and influence for the election to the office of Councillor, promising continued .service on your behalf. Wednesday, Dec 3, 1969 Catton, Art o » £ TH % : HASAN TA 3 LX RO A EN Tet A I RA Sl SRA 1 Prince Mrs. Les Beacock We all enjoyed quite an active week-end recently when one Saturday evening our church sanctuary and gallery were both filled to capacity comprising of an in- terested and happy group of all ages represented from disfant localities as well as locally. This special entertainment was arranged by the faithful stewards of the church who planned a' variety night in the form of "Uncle Benny Wilson" radio announcer of CHOO, plus a few promising amateurs. The evening entertainment commenced at exactly 8.30 when every minute was occu- pied as artists each contri- buted their talent in the form of modern and sacred selections. It was a very successful performance. We appreciate the donation of four practical prizes which were won by four lucky per- sons, namely Mrs. B. Snel- grove, Mr. Jas. Doupe, Mr. Chas. Willes and a Toronto person, name unknown. Then the next day Sunday, Nov. 16 our worship hour was favourably attended and as usual our minister Rev. M. Reeves, B.A. delivered a splendid message. We also appreciate the attractive flor- al artangement placed in them to achieve an economic level suitable for human life. Unless the U.N. succeeds in reducing the gap between the haves and have nots, war and the threat of war will always be with us. [bert | memes ot the late Mr. Ar- thur'Bond. The mixed choir did full justice in rendering their anthem, an old familiar number of which one never tires. Then as customary two young men, Mr. F. Olsen and Mr. T. Hodgins did their bit in the life of the church by gathering the offering. Yes worship hour was over. Then what? Practic- ally everyone totalling near 80 adults and families filed downstairs to the church par- lors and immediately sat at white covered tables. At this time Mrs. B. Snelgrove and Mrs. G. Hunter, who in the past had attended "Five Oaks, conducted some of their program in music and song which created vocal ex- ercises- for the entire group. This was followed by an edu- cational film on western scenes entitled, "The Rural Church", provided and nar- rated by our minister Mr. Reeves. _ Nearing five o'clock all were given ample helpings of sumptuous food served. bv the church elders. This treat 'proved especially true for the ladies who for once re- mained seated and enjoyed the Chinese food which sure tasted '"morish" and most everyone did just that, '"re- filled their plate". It seemed to be a general feeling that everyone present had fully enjoyed the warm atmosphere that blended into the rewarding afternoon in general. We duly appreciate the kind and thoughtful gesture on the part of the 'elders; es- News pecially one who was instru-% mental in bearing the finan- cial angle. Birthday greetings were Mrs. = Snelgrove, sung for } Chas. Wille, Mrs. Holtby, Bryan Beacock. And so heaps of thanks to everyone who helped make the delightful hours possible. Rumour reports similar event is being book- will be welcome, - Monday might Rev. M. Reeves and elders met at the home of Mr. Les Beacock where much' business was discussed. We offer our condolence to Mr, and Mrs. B. Fear who attended the funeral of his sister Miss Bertha Fear of Toronto.
