mr johnny cobb entertained a number of his friends at his birth day party saturday dear people of york east the legislature is making pro gress the throne speech with its three amendments ottered by the three groups in the opposition was voted on and of course the speech was carried by the government majority the amendments defeat ed on the last day of the week premier frost who is also pro vincial treasurer brought down his 7th budget and in all those seven years we have had buoyant revenues which means that he has always had surpluses and nothing makes a treasurer so happy one year the province showed a surplus of twentyfive million dollars that was in the days of george drew and members of the opposition thought much of it should have been spent for the people of the province this year a new method was followed twenty million dollars was put in a sinking fund and only a noriiul surplus was shown there are o big changes in taxation the tax on icfce track betting is increased from ten per cent to twelve and a half and the amusements tax i- lowered from twenty per cent to fifteen with no tax on shows charging 15c or less the only contentious piece of legislation we have had recently is the new marriage act it represents a complete revision of an act which it is admitted needs some changes and harry nixon lib brant who headed the criticism of the bill said that he approved of 51 of the 55 sections but he vigorously disapproved of civil marriage to be performed by a magistrate or judge rather than a clergyman if the contracting parties so wished from the opinions expressed so far it seems likely that support or opposition to the civil marriage section will cut right across party lines the supporters of the civil marriage section of the bill point out that it is hypocrisy to require people who have no religious be lief to take part in a religious cere mony as the present law does they also say it is unfair to ask a minister to hold a religious cere mony for people who he knows do not believe in it that view has been expressed by some clergymen as well as laymen opponents of civil marriage claim that it would cheapen the marriage vows and make it a casual afrair rather than a sacred sacrament they feel thata religi ous ceremony emphasizes the solemnity and importance of mar riage whereas a wedding in a judges or magistrates office will not mr nixon has moved an amendment to strike out the civil marriage section which is to be voted on later in two of the western provinces civil marriage is permissable yet only a fraction 1 or so have ever used it and i am sure the same would likely happen here in many european countries both cere monies are performed usually civil marriage first with the religious following ontario has been one of the few places in the civilized world where civil marriage is not permissable w h temple ccf high park who has a separate bill on the order paper requiring anyone who plans to marry to have a blood test for syphilis asked the govern ment to incorporate the principle in their act thus people planning to marry would know whether or not their partner had venereal disease they would not be pre vented from marrying in such a case but they would not take such a serious step in ignorance of the fact a really good speech his first was made by dr mackinnon phillips pc grey n the bulk of it was devoted to hospital care about which he knows a great deal he thinks that the chronically ill and the people who are convalesc ing should be in hospitals that do not liave the expensive equipment of the operating room radiology etc and thus relieve the pressure on general hospitals he stressed too the need for more help for young farmers by longterm low interest loans to help them get started on a farm of their own he felt that such loans were especially needed where the farmer had more than one son that wished to farm bill temple who is a dry dry informed the legislature that we spend 60 per capita on liquor each year but only 15 on educa tion the desertion of a family by a father and breadwinner is riot pursued by officers of the law and brought back to assume his respon sibility but a thief who breaks into a store and steals 50 is pursued and punished campbell calder lib london concluded the throne debate for the liberals charlie millard west york for the ccf and the hon dana porter for the government the rumor in the corriders was that calders speech was a bid for the leadership if so i think it was not a strong bid it was a well delivered speech but the contents were very light and in my opinion was not in the same category as the speech delivered by oliver their present house leader agnes macphail mpp for york east 11 pepler avenue toronto g ont first come the
