J, Waldo Monteith, Minister of National Health and Welfare made three major points| on radioactive fallout as it af-| © fects Canadians. Mr. Monteith said: "There is cause neither for panic nor com- placency about fallout. In particu. lar, there is no need for Cana- dians to curtail their consumption of milk or milk products." "The Dominion government", he said, "is giving the whole mat- ter high priority with a view to preventing Canadians or other peoples from drifting into danger unknowingly." "The people of Canada have been and will continue to be kep fully informed of the situation a it develops. The Dominion govern ment is not trying to hide any- thing and feels that Canadians are entitled to all the facts on this vital health matter," Mr. Monteith explained lucidly, step by step, the formation, cause - J. WALDO MONTEITH most widely publicized element in "Less than .2 of the total life- time radiation affecting the bone marrow is from fallout," he said, "and about .01 of the total radia- tion having a genetic effect re- sults from fallout." "What al this adds up to", Mr. Monteith said, "is that whe- ther you consider the somatic or genetic effects, fallout at the pres- ent time contributes only a small part of our total radiation expo- sure." Mr. Monteith spoke of the Do- minion program for measuring fallout, by means of a_ network of testing stations throughout the country. He pointed out that since milk is a chief dietary source of calcium, which resembles Stron- tium-90, the fallout picture is most clearly seen from milk sam- ples taken across the 'country.

"Fallout", he said, "refers to the radioactive elements produced in the explosion of nuclear weapons.

On the other hand, it is also evident that some people can consistent- ly exceed the speed limit without accident.

BACK TO SCHOOL The decline in emplo~ment be- tween August and September, the government said in a statement, was largely the result of the back- to-school movement of students who had taken summer jobs, a factor also partly accounting for the lessened number of those without jobs and seeking work.
