Aggravailng Action ran numberol occasions when Barrie TownCouncii has been discussing the town parking problem the theme has been off street parking Yet at Monday nights council meeting it appeared as if any such commendable thought had been negatied by recent police action Twotraders at the Juncuilnof Maple police had takenactlon to stop theparking of their vehicles between the sidewalk and their buildings something that these trad ers had been doing for quite time without complaint and without inconveniencing anyone Apparently the reason given for stopping the practice was that the cars were being parked on the boulevard contrary to town ljleW and that the vehicles were being driven over the sidewalk Both reasons seem to hold little waterfor in the first place there seems to be some doubt asbto whose property the cars are on and secondly the two parking places can be reached from driveway The position is aggravated by the fact that council has already prohibited parking both in Dunlop Street and Maple Avenue in the vicinity ofthe two properties Both tradcrs are dependent on the car trade and need space to put their own vehicles 1lere seems the height of misplaced zeal These vehicles have used this space for considerable time without trouble from anyhere and one trader was even given permission to pave his particular area at his own cost Now for no valid reason the traders must put the cars elsewhere The council through this action have added to their traffic problem While it may be true that the majority of council did not know that this had happens ed it is difficult to imaginethat some alderv man dldnot know oOpolice action We have most diligent police force it is true but we suspect that this action was taken after consultation with third party Yet it is difficult to see whatlit has accomplished other than aggravation The cynic might be prompted to say that it wasthe loss bf meter revenue which spark ed this trouble We would suggest that any reverlue loss would be adequately com park oil thastreet Important increase Recentfigures compiled in Ottawa give clear picture of the impact of postwar immigration on Canadaseeonomlc and cul tural life Most Canadians are awaretnat large numbers of immigrants have arrived in can ada since the end oiltha Second World War However it often is difficult to appreciate the effect of largescale immigration until someone provides facts and figures illustrat ing its significance since Jan 1046 more than 1500000 immigrants have settled in Canada allowing for deaths and departures uf the newcomers this means that at least one of every 15 personsin Canada todayis lo postwar immigra Putting it another way the number of immigrants who have arrived inthe last 111 years is equivalent to the population of either of Canadas two largest citim Toronto and Montreal At the 1956 census Torontos population was1385020 and lvlontrealsl 1802753 1n term of provinces the postwar im migration

of heat loss the evaporation of sweat man is supreme among animals Dr Edholm distinguished British phys iologist has been surveying resqu of studies of the way in which the human body adapts itself to

climatic chamber in London to an atmosphere about the same as the hottest days in SingaporHround 100 degrees for only four hours day he will become acclimatized to such heat in only two weeks The
