(CP)--Canada launched on a new era of hii ment which history will record as | unprecedented, Robert Drummond | of Toronto said today. Mr. Drummond, president of the { Canadian Construction Association, | addressed the CCA's western re- gional meeting, and advised con-| struction men to get ready for the | bigger jobs ahsad. He noted that contracts in the | first five months of the year were nearly double those for she same | period in the record year 1950; and | that in the western provinces alone | construction rose from $73,000,000 | in 1939 to $772,000,000 in 1950. Even considering the rise in costs, this represented nearly a 500-per-cent | increase in physical volume. "1 personally feel," said Mr. Drummond, "that there is too great a fear of a depression in the minds of many people. The future of Can- ada has been underwritten by the expansion policy of government and business alike." Mr. Drummond nofed that all Canadian steel producers are ex- panding their facilities but while demands for new construction were at record levels, conditions were not even throughout the country. "While construction has receiv- | ed more steel to date this year than in the same period of 1950, the bulk of it has been channelled by gov- erhment authority to heavy con- | struction projects." While the association has urged | that governments reduce their pub- { lic works programs, Mr. Drummond says it feels the construction of roads should not be held back. "In addition to aiding in the de- | velopment of natural resources, na- tional character and tourist trade, ! defence factors point to the vital! importance of early completion of strategic thoroughfares such as the | Trans-Canada Highway. Mr. Drummond recalled the na- tional joint conference board of the construction industry in the second world war and expressed the hope that it may soon be operating again on a permanent basis. He suggested increased production | as the best cure for higher prices, and noted that labor unions "have agreed to the adoption of incentive wage systems in the construction industry in a number of western countries, and we should give their experience careful study." He advocated increased immigra- tion and said: "I would suggest to unions that the concern sometimes expressed over the entry of additional mem- bers into the building industry is based upon a false fear, Labor has | consistently benefitted from the ec- | |onomic development of the country, and there is no reason to question that this trend will continue."

Lady Curlers 'Enjoy Picnic At Lynbrook Members of the ladies' section of the Oshawa Curling Club staged | an interesting summer picnic out- | 'ing at Lynbrook Park, Thursday | | evening. | Mr. and Mrs. Fred McBrien, | proprietors of Lynbrook Park, acted | as host and hostess for the picnic, | which was attended by about thirty | lady curlers and their husbands. o Following the picnic supper, which all the lady curlers contribut- | ied, a series of competitions were | held. Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Gilchrist came out as champions in the nail- | driving contest; Mrs. F. McBrien | and' Mr. Frank Godden won the | shoe-throwing race. while Mr. and Mrs. Bert Granik captured the pie | plate race. The entire party was divided for a tug-of-war, and the winners each received a lollipop. Acclaimed a success by all, ten- | tative plans for a repeat af the event when the next summer rolls | around, were made by the lady | curlers but actually the main topic | of conversation was how soon the | next curling season would get under way.

ADVICE. New Hospital Will Not Solve Overcrowding "Building new aw hosplials will not solve the problem of overcrowding in our hospitals", stated Paul Mee- han, Fieldman and Sec.-Treasurer of Co-operative Medical Services Federation, when he spoke to the Annual Meeting of Ontario (County) Co-operative Medical Ser- vices at Sunderland. Mr. Meehan has noted as he travelled across the Province that the present trend is to go to hos- pital for every minor illness. This is on the increase wherever there is prepaid hospitalization--whether it is paid by co-operatives or other prepaid plans. A noted physician in the United States has said that if the present trend to abuse hospital services continues, hospitalization will soon .| be beyond the means of the work- ing people. "The main source of income any prepaid hospitalization organization has with which to pay hospital claims is the premiums collected", said Mr. Meehan. It is possible for the forty units of Co- | operative Medical Services in the | { Province of Ontario to educate the people to the fact that they can | only keep down premium rates by | not over-crowding hospitals with minor illnesses. This, however, can- | * not be done without the co-opera- | tion of the doctors. Mr. Meehan told the meeting | about the new, co-operative 12-bed hospital operating at Shelbourne. With a charge of only $5.00 per day, and without government grants, they are showing a profit. Mr, tion. We should study preventative medicine and safety measures. COUNTY CO-OP INCREASING Russell Morrison of Beaverton President of Ontario (County) Co- | Operative Medical Services, re- ported an increase of more than 32% in membership during the year and a 757% increase in income.

MEASLES (Continued on Page 5) TO MILK For a time, o dication from the and management in an attempt to possible to come MILK Many people have inquired as to the position of the farmers who were supplying milk to the Oshawa Dairy prior to the strike which began over a week ago. of these producers had no alternative but to "dump" their milk, which meant a daily loss of over $1,500.00. However, producers this milk is finding a market. Most of it is being processed by the other Oshawa dairies, who are working well over capacity The producers wish to express their appreciation of the time and effort spent on their behalf by the management of all of the Oshawa dairies in this period of emergency. While it is true that, over the years, the producers and distributors have had their differences of opinion, we have always found it We regret the inconvenience which the Oshawa consumers are presently experiencing, but trust that when the dairies are again operating in a normal manner, the service to which you have been accustomed will be resumed, and that you will re- ward it with your patronage.
