Mr. Deachman stated that "Plan" is now operating' in eight different countries and is expanding by leaps and b each year. Hong Kong, for ex- ample, has six full time doctors working for "Plan" in the care for the welfare and health of adopted children. Among other stipulations every "Plan" child must attend school where books and supplies are given. A question often asked is "What happens if a child is dropped by his Foster Parents? "Plan" carries on and ldoks after the child just the same until another Parent is found. At the moment theré are over 32,000 adopted children under the "Plan". scheme, of which 6,000 have "Plan" parents in Canada.

Ona recent trip to Ecuador, Mrs. Matthews stated "It's a little over a week since I. left Ecuador, yet the sights, sounds and smells still haunt me. Conditions are almost in- describable. Many of our fam- ilies live in tiny one- or two- ds|room huts, raised on cane stilts, above steaming, fetid swamps. There is never running water in the house. A pail of dubious cleanliness is filled once or twice a day spigot a few blocks away. In back of each house is a small open square, usually wet and muddy. This is the so-called toilet facility that is one of the major health hazards in a semi- tropical country like Ecuador.

John Langdon's original col- ection of Canadian powter was started thirty-five years ago. While searching for the pewter pieces he discovered silver, which did not fit into either English or French F Through his reading he found work. His research has taken him to France, Eugland, United States and all over Canada. study has been his collecting of silver pieces made by early silversmiths, He has given the 'Royal Ontario Museum a re- presentative collection of silver made by various French re- gime and English regime sil- versmiths. k Mr. Langdon's authoritative book, "Canadian Silversmiths and Their Marks, 1667-1867" is now out of print but a second book, mére extensive than the first, is under praparation. The Oshawa and District So- ciety is very pleased to be able to make it possible for mem- bers and friends to hear Mr. Langdon speak at the Mc- Laughlin Public Library Audi- toriym on May first at 8 o'elock. Mr, Langdon invites those at- tending the meeting to bring any pieces of silver which they woild like him to identify.

(Special) -- Mem- be working for the good of the), 9 country in a non-partisan way, Michael Starr, MP for Ontario, claims. The Oshawa MP takes issue with the view expressed by many writers and commentators that the Commons is too con- cerned with party politics and not concerned enough with the welfare of Canadians. "T ran for parliament on a political platform representing a political party and I believe my duty in the House of Commons as a member of the opposition is to provide an alternative to the present government," Mr. Starr declares. "'That is the way in which to conduct the business of this house. We are all work- ing for the good of the coun- try." WRITERS NAIVE He asid there were writers to- day who were so naive as to suggest there should be no par- tisanship in the Commons. "What are they proposing? A one-party system which would eventually end in a_ dictator- ship?" Mr. Starr asks. "Parlia -- ment bers of parliament should not} P@ Nine Teena hi is a place of politics and tis ip." He denied that parliament has in -- recent years and says it is the same now as when he first came to the Commons in 1952. There was politics and partnership then 'and that is the way he likes it and the way it should be. "That is why the democratic system works and when we end this system we will be 6n the road to dictatorship in country,"" he warns. ONLY LIP SERVICE He charged that non-partisan-| ship is paid only lip service and cited the case of organizing one of the standing committees. of the house. A 'chairman was elected who was a Liberal, which he 'said is quite proper. The chairman expressed the hope that the committee could carry on its work in a-non-parti- san way for the good of Can- ada. Immediately afterwards, a vice-chairman, also a Liberal, was elected. "That is a good example of a non-partisan attitude. They say, let us be non-partisan, but we are all going to be Liberals who control this committee," Mr. Starr charges. $< $$ gers Hurt At Pickering ~ Pickering (Staff)'-- A light van struck and injured nine out of a party of 11 teenagers 'walk- ing .home from a dance here late Jast night.

BROUGHAM -- The policy of lighting two parks in the south end of Pickering Township was angrily debated by the Bay Ridges Community Centre Board and the Pickering Town- mittee, this week at Brougham. Paul Lyons, chairman of the Bay Ridges Board, supported by other members and residents of Bay Ridges, fired questions at the committee about the basic functions of local parks boards, and of the" township parks board, about the thinking in establishing a lighting system in Bay Ridges park when _ their budget had advocated a paved area in the park for the pursuit of all recreational activities wihter and summer. "How is it that the township board has the right to budget 50. per cent of the budget on one minority sport?" asked Mr. Lyons, BUDGET SPLIT Donald Hopkins, a member of the township board, explained that it was not all of the parks budget .that was proposed, but a splitting ot the parks budget and recreation budget that would be used for the two parks. The softball budget has been reduced to $1300 this year, from about last year to make- the light expenditure ible. Mr. Hopkins explained R tholi 7 C Council. In Canada, a number of centres has seen Roman Catholic and Protestants meet- ing in fellowship and for con- Sultation in order to promote iand develop greater understand- ing.

"We have the responsibility to look after these people, and to spend the money where the best need is seen for it." "T am of the opinion that the township stepped out of line," said Mr, Lyons.

"Would this board give us a paved area instead of lights?" asked Mr, Lyons, directly. He ship Parks and Recreation Com-! insisted upon a firm answer. "There are two sets of lights in the north end," said Chair- man Donald Beer. "I think there should be two sets in the south end," "We are not holding a gun to |your ear," said Terry Ryan, a township parks board mem- ber, "Another park wants lights if your board does not approve". BOARD SUPERFLUOUS | "I am left with nothing more than the impression that our own board is superfluous,"' said Mr, Lyons. "I don't see any need for us. Is it the intention of the township board. to make all decisions for us? Are you prepared to step into Bay Ridges to run the parks? We cannot get any firm answer from you -- nothing we can get our teeth in." Parks Administrator Harry Ashton said that he had an idea that if so many members of the board resign, that it is unlawful. "You must have a quorum on Group Resigns En Masse From Its Parks Board park rather than baseball lights, reasonable. When the delegation had de- parted Mr, Hopkins said: "In two separate instances members have telephoned my house and stated that if things were not done to their satisfac- tion that I would not be on this parks board following this meet- ing." "I do not intend to back down from my original motion," he continued, "'of the way we spend the money -- not to be stub- born, but because I think it is right. It disturbs me that there are groups in this township who gain their end by this means." "How are other areas going to benefit from this paved area?"' asked Gordon Shaver. TENDERS OPENED Three tenders were opened for the lighting of two parks in the south end of the township, and the lowest, from Power Line Construction Limited, at setting up was not un- the board," he said. "How can we be responsible as a board when decisions are made for us? You are not, tell- ing us what budget we are going to have. We shall appear be- fore council on Monday night and offciially hand in our resig. nation." ALLOCATION QUESTIONED At one period when the dele- gation questioned an allocation for the Lakeshore League of $200 -- part of the $1300 softball budggt -- and claimed that this particular league did not even play in the township; and when Mr. Hopkins saiq that it did not matter where they played as long as they were from the township, the meeting got noisy, and out of hand. $2,989 per park, was accepted for East Woodlands. Park. The respective park boards submit- ted their approval by letter and were represented at the meeting by Ray Traynor and Mrs. Ethel Hull, who said that they expect- ed their baseball schedule would not be affected by other town- ship groups, and hoped that they would be granted sufficient funds to maintain their com- munity centre. A resolution was passed that due to the anticipated résigna- tion of the Bay Ridges Park Board, that the matter of park lighting and further considera- tion of their budget, be held in abeyance.
