conspiracy among the govermrient the poor the earners the skilled tradesmen and almost everyone except the middle class to grind the latter exceedingly small im about as middle class as find plenty to be thankful for this week i met a lady who stock and despite the grinding is living on welfare her hus band from whom she is separa ted contributes nothing she has six kids to feed and clothe there is no car no treats no frills no little extras every month she is almost frantic with worrv trying to make ends meet ily is less than many middle- class people pay in income tax the lady is not well even if she could get to work it would i mean deductions from her wel fare cheque shes struggling desperately but cheerfully to keep her family together and give them an education and shes doing it but

ven ture into the world get a punch of discrimination right on the nose and escape to drink lots i of them do on the reserve too but what els is there to do weave baskets there s another group that i feel for a large one these are the elderly and the disabled sure they get a pension tiry living on it you middleclass crybabies happiest of these are the born bums whove always lived in a shack never paid taxes in surance and seldom rent they are in clover proportionately j but they re poor perhaps the maddest portion of this group is the elderly cou pies who worked hard never asked anyone for anything and saved for their old age they may have a small pension from the job or even some savings bonds and now ready to spend a few golden years their pen sions and bonds are halved in value their living costs tripled they cant pay the taxes and have to sell the home they have sweeted for and move into a couple of rooms the reward for 3040 hours years of honest toil its enough to make one ioin the hippies its a great country but next time you start whining because you cant quite afford a second car think of the farmer whose wheat pan t be sold the plumb er who cleans your stinking drains

mr and mrs keith hawkes the house continues in i session discussion centred trj ound the proposed rule changes in house procedures it bad been originally hoped to wind up the business of the house en 27th june and give memj bers of parliament an opport unity to get hojne to their rid- lugs and have a vacation it was my intention to take two weeks off apd then visit with people in their riding whether or not and when i will be able to do this remains to be seen what is actually going on here- in ottawa is a filibuster continuous talk in an at tempt to wear down members by the sheer weight of words the irony of the whole thins is that the matter under discus sion in the house is to prevent such a thing as a filibuster from happening but the point that is being stressed in the house now is that of parliam entary freedom under the pre sent rules a member may speak and express his views on any piece of legislation before the house under the new prop osal this will not be possible because of the number of mem bers which make up parliament there are a total of 264 mem bers and each member is allow ed to speak or forty minutes in addition to this amendments can be introduced and every member is allowed to speak on every amendment those op posing the rule changes have said that they are prepared to talk until hell freezes over and with temperatures here in ottawa running well into the nineties that certainlyappears to be a long way off ottawa i findcan beat hilton when it comes to summer heat in fact i have never been s hot in a hay field as i have been on soma of th days here this week the trouble in the house is that we are talking and not making bay strange to ssy neither i nor other members to whom ii have talked are receiving much play back from our natitul ents as to what is going on here on parliament hill usually when legislation is before the house i get many letters and calls from constituents but this time there has been relatively little reaction from halton i perhaps it is because this legis lation does not directly affects the average citizen or it may be that people are more inter ested in the astronauts on their wsy to the moon would toim
