Obviously we cannot afford to reduce the productive capacity of Killala Lake. For this reason the Minister of Natural Resources has issued a closed season variation order for Killala Lake prohibiting angling for any spe- cies during the fall, winter and spring per- iods from September 15 to the following June 15. In other words, fishing will be only be allowed during the summer period when the trout are down in deep waters. We are well aware of the fact that a good number of fisherman have enjoyed winter and spring fishing on Killala Lake. However the production of lake trout eggs from this lake is so essential to our stocking program that it must take priority over sport fishing. We hope that the sport fisherman will ap- preciate the importance of the Killala Lake trout to our stocking program and we request their cooperation by adhering to the shortened] fishing season for this lake.

A total of twenty- five public and private hearings were held throughout the province. A total of twenty- five public and private hearings were held throughout Ontario during the first year of operation - from Kenora and Thunder Bay in the northwest, to Ottawa and L'Orignal in eastern Ontario, and London, Chatham and Wind- sor in the southwest. In the current fall series, members of the 'Office of the Ombuds- man will, by December have conducted hearings in the smaller centres of northern Ontario reaching from in the northwest Dryden, Sioux Lookout and Red Lake areas, to towns in the Timiskaming District along the Quebec border. As' the province heads into winter, Ontario Hydro warns that consumption of electric power goes into high gear, and asks for moderation and conservation. : The return to standard time, shorter day- light periods and colder weather bring, almost overnight, a dramatic jump in daily demands of two to three hundred thousand kilowatts, according to H.K. Wright, Director of Energy Conservation. This is the time too, when plans are made to brighten the early winter with Christmas lighting displays. While not wanting to re- duce the spirit of Christmas, Hydro points out the need to moderate the size of the lighting display as part of its conservation program. It has also adopted the slogan of "Off un- til 7 p.m., and off again at bedtime," regard- ing indoor and outdoor lighting displays for homes, stores and offices. Hydro does not anticipate a problem in meeting winter power needs this year, but points out electric power consumption contin- ues on a rising curve. Last winter, for in- stance, five all-time record peak demands were set in successive months. Any savings along the way, such as with Christmas displays, help to keep these increases more moderate.
