advice is sim ple stick as close as possible to budget and dont over extend yourself on credit WHAT OILD HAPPEN But not overextending Whelan means that when deciding how much credit you could handle take into account what your financial situation would be if you were hurt in an accident and off work for while ifyou lost your job ifone of two salaries is no longer there or anything that could change your financial situation The majority of his cases he said involve people who could handle their own finances until one of the above things happen ed Whelan said the service has clients from all walks of life and wage brackets lle outlined one case Mr and Mrs came into the service from outoftown in July 1976 They owed three creditors total of $315137 Their monthly payments were $180 but after working out budget Whelan found they could only afford to pay $100 month He arranged for their debts to be prorated In March Mr received retroactive pay cheque that enabled him to pay back all but $1000 Whelan arranged for bank loan to cover the remaining debt and the DS were con sidered rehabilitated But they will only remain rehabilitated if they stick to their budget keeping in mind monthly living expenses and any other expenses that could arise he said Since the counselling service opened in September 1973 it has handled 1000 cases with l1l£tl $65 million debts involv The service is busiest in February and March Whelan said and there could be three week wait for an appointment In the summer things are not as hectic and the wait is only about week Consumer ministry says rattles may be unsafe TTAWA Federal con sumer minister Tony Abbott has announced an amendment distributors several months ago The department is also aware to regulations governing the of four other nearfatal cases in design and construction of baby rattles under the Hazardous Products Act The revised regulations are effective immediately and ac tion will begin at once to have rattles not meeting the new standards removed from the marketplace Consumer and corporate af fairs Canada developed the changes to the regulations after the tragic deaths of two infants aged seven and eight months who suffocated when small rat tles became stuck in their throats cutting off breathing The rattle model involved was withdrawn from the market voluntarily by the May Court Club installs executive Canada and similar number of fatal and nearfatal incidents in the United States In both deaths the rattle was around three and threequarter inches in length with heart shaped ends oneinchwide There are many rattles of different shapes on the market today that could be just as hazardous Abbott said Rattles must be constructed to take full account of the facts that an infants natural tenden cy is to put any object in the mouth and that infants may be expected to play with this type of toy without constant direct supervision While most manufacturers of childrens products are con too cerncd with this as with all design safety aspects fatal ac cidents have occurred because of the absence of uniform safety standard Abbott said Under the new regulations all rattles must pass test to ensure that no part can project into an infants throat and the importation sale or advertise ment of dangerously designed or constructed rattles is pro hibited he said dangerously designed rat tle is defined as one of size and shape where the whole rat tle or any part of it could enter the mouth of an infant to depth of 30 mm slightly more than one inch rattle of this length could cause suffocation either by becoming lodged in the back of the throat or by stimulating vomiting Members of the May Court lub of Barrie held their seventh annual meeting at the Schnitzel IIaus The 197778 executive is left front
