The bargaining committee was instructed to request a meeting with the OGH board to continue bargain- ing on the basis of the minority report. The major- ity report was endorsed Friday by the hospital board at a special meeting. The report, submitted by Judge H. C. Arreli and D. E. Houck, stated that some wage rates paid at the hospital were lower than wages paid at hospitals in communities of a similiar size.

Mr. Robarts. has several things in common with Sir John A. He too was born on Jan. 11 and today is celebrating his 48th birthday; they shared the same profession law; the same avocation -- politics; the same affiliation Conserva- tive; and both became leaders of government. The special train made its regular whistle stops between Toronto and Kingston and a spe- \cial flag stop at Napanee. It arrived in Oshawa at 11.36 a.m. and stopped for three minutes.

Gwenth Puffer, 14, of 384 Sharon street told police that one of the boys, the one with the gun "looked at me funny". She started to run away from the pond, at the end of her street, and was struck in the upper arm and thigh by pellets.

MAJORITY REPORT The majority report recom- mended that the contract expire May 6, 1967, and that.a five per cent general increase be grant- ed immediately. A further five per cent wage increase was re- commended for May 7, 1965, on rates then in effect, and a final five per cent wage hike on ex- isting rates May 7, 1966 . The majority report also stat- ed that settlement, pay or re- troactive pay, from May 7, 1964 until the present, be negotiated between the parties, with no re- commendation from the board. Mr. Pilkey's report stated that he disagreed with the as- sumption that three per cent was the average wage increase , in provincial hospitals and sug- /' gested four and-a-half per cent as a truer figure. "My recom- mendation is for full retroactiv- ity and 10 per cent increases in each year of a two-year con- tract," he stated. He also stated that three-year contracts are not of the 'gen- eral pattern in the hospital field where contracts are of one or two-year long terms. _ Mr. Pilkey's report read: "It is stated that the hospital is ee vg Rapp! a long term men: order that proper budgeting and planning A sg done. To this I must reply that: The budgeting problems of persons earning $40 per week in this day and age are far more difficult than any budgeting problem faced by the hospital. There is no long term budget- ing in the matter of wages since this matter is adjusted annually by the Ontario Hospital Ser- vices Commission, The implementation of the new Minimum Wage Laws has had an important effect on wages in this hospital, As the 'Law becomes operative through- out the Province during 1965, all hospital wages are bound to in- crease in the next few sve bag therefore, be rong le the employees of the Oshawa General to Hb low rates for such a long period.

The quartermaster officer told police that the theft of the old army issue rifles occurred sometime between Thursday and Saturday.

YEAR PASSES W: A. Holland, hospital admin- istrator, said that almost a year had gone by since the last con- tract expired and that the board approved of the three-year con- tract recommendation. "It would mean a longer period of hospital stability," he stated, "and would make it'easier for the hospital to budget. "We are interested in keeping our employees on a comparable rate with like-sized hospitals in the province," stated Mr. Hol- land, "wages cannot always be related to industrial jobs but with comparable jobs in the community, store clerks, house maids etc. This hospital serves more than 70,000 people," said Mr. Storie, "'and we wish to give the best of patient care..To that end we wish to continue a relation- ship with our employees which on Re ial been on the highest level."

OGH catches up to them and wages of the majority of workers would be equal to the present average in other hos- Pitals at the end of the three- year contract. "The employees were quite justified in making the decision expressed by their majority vote," he stated. PROMOTED UNION OTTAWA (CP) -- Philip S&S. Forsey, who campaigned with Premier J. R.
