MANY MORE ELIGIBLE He drew attention to the fact that thousands of people are elig- ible for unemployment benefits who were not eligible in 1955 and 1956. This was due to the relaxing of the restrictions on married women; by including fishermen and broadening the seasonal benefit formula and ex- tending the period. This has cre- ated a degree of statistical une employment which had not exist- ed in the past. An examination of Natonal Employment Service figures howed some 200,000 women at f The St. Catharines Standard, thanked Mr, Starr. EXPERT SECURED The. speaker said that the committee has set itself a rigor- ous schedule and has secured the services of Dr. J. J. Deutsch, one of Canada's outstanding authorities on the economy, who will assist in the study. "One of the problems facing the government is the paradox of ment in an di the height of the registration sea- son. There is also a large num- ber of workers in the over 40 group and a large number in the 21 to 25 year old group. LACK OF TRAINING 1t was pointed out that the situ- ation as regards the older work- ers was brought about by their failure, through lack of training, to adapt themselves to advances in industrial processes. Automa- tion was not intrinsically bad, Mr. Starr ted, as it may be economy," Mr. Starr ed. The problem had been ren- had been a determined effort to picture the unemployment situa- tion in the light of a national crisis and even as the forerun- ner of depression. The picture painted by the critics was not borne out by the facts. MORE WORKING He pointed to the fact that more before; that wages in industry production is up all along the line. Mr. Starr stressed that pub- lic confidence is essential for a prospering economy and that the destruction of this confidence re- moves the ingredient essential to economic progress. For the past 15 years, Mr. Starr said, it had been possible to maintain a remarkably con- stant relationship between the number working and those cap- able of working. He pointed to the fact that in June, 1946, a year of high employment, centage of those working the per- the factor that will enable Can- ada to price itself back into for- eign markets. "We are now in the day of the skilled worker and over the next few years those without skills will have difficulty finding work," Mr. Starr said. Due to expansion of industry there may be serious shortages of skilled workers. In order to minimize the changes due to automation supplementary training for those dislodged must be provided. At the same time we must make further training available to the younger work- er," the speaker added. NOT ISOLATED PROBLEM "You cannot consider unem- ployment as an isolated problem. You must consider it in relation to the general economy. Unem- ployment is a symptom of mal- adjustment in the economy and the whole economy must be studied in order to ascertain ex- actly where the maladjustment is," he continued. The widespread use. of ical and electronic syste the repl t of unskill and over was 54 Cc cent. MEASURING METHOD CHANGED Admitting that there is a. de- gree of unemployment in Canada, Mr, Starr stated that the method of ing loyment has changed considerably over the years and that there are two and sometimes three sets of figures dealing with the matter, He charged that some have not been satisfied with one set and have att ted to arrive at new Charge Is Refuted By Park Owner Mrs.\James Welch, proprietor of Sumwer Wonderland Park South of Brooklin on Highway 12, has replied 'to what she termed "unpleasant publicity" given her park at a recent meeting of Whitby Township Council. Mrs. Welch referred to a letter read to council, from a Hamilton woman, who complained about a visit she and her family made to the park, May 24. Among other things, she stated that she was charged $1.50 for each fish caught by her party, and that a sign over the park gate stated the cost per fish was 10 cents. ENTIRELY UNTRUE "This is entirely untrue' Mrs. Welsh said. "We charge $1.50 for every fish caught, and this lady was told the cost before her party started fishing. The fish are no heat is required, is $1200 per month. The Oshawa and District Association must therefore raise about $13,000 annually to keep the school running. In raising funds for building the new school, which was started last year, the association has had considerable support from local persons and organizations. The Kinsmen Club has built and furnished one classroom and furnished a second classroom. The Soroptimist Club and the little publicized Corsage Group made sizable donations, which to- gether with large donations from | the Rotary Club helped build the | school, which was constructed by| Bathe and McLellan contractors. | Another Oshawa construction cially trained teachers painstak- ingly develop the learning power of the children to the maximum, combining recreation with educa- tion, so that the children enjoy| going.to the school, and learn as much as they can. Before being admitted to the school, each child is examined by a psychologist, who determin- ed what special training, if any, is required by the child. Children subject to seizures, such as se- vere epileptics, are not admitted to the school, and incontinent ¢hil- dren are not admitted, be- cause of the disturbing effect they might have on the other pupils. To be admitted to the school, a child must have an IQ of 50 or less. In the normal child an 1Q of 100 is average at 16 years. The school cares for retarded children from the ages of five to 18, with an adult class ranging in age from 18 to 25. This adult class is the nucleus of an ambi- tious scheme of the association, a "sheltered workshop", where older retarded children will even- tually be able to work and sup- port themselves by "their work, persons who would not be able to| work in a normal factory of plant. | COSTLY PROJECT | Although subsidized by provin- cial grants, a school for retarded children is an expensive project | William A.

Holidays Summer is the season of aban- oned pets, and the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Ani- mals wishes fo issue this mes- sage as a reminder to all pres- ent and would-be pet-owners: It is the legal and moral re- sponsibility of every pet-owner to provide adequate food, shelter, water, and care for his pet, but the vast number of stray ani- mals found in the cities every summer, and in the resort areas every fall, testify that many people are not only unwilling to accept this responsibility, but are cruel enough to take the easiest way out of it. This is not an acceptable way to end ownership. NOT TEMPORARY PLAYTING A pet is not a temporary play- thing, and those who are unwill- ing te make him a permanent part of the family are urged not to buy one. If the children are a nuisance while travelling, they are not left in the city when you go to the cottage; if they be- come tiresome in winter, you would never think of leaving them at the cottage to fend for themselves when you come home in the fall, Pets no more deserve such treatment than children, and they are protected from it by Criminal Law. Animals can usually be trained to be very good travellers and vacation companions and, in most instances, could and should be taken along.

S. Ebbs here this morning. Bruce Affleck is conducting the ease for the crown while Norman Borins, QC, of Toronto, is acting for Rev. D. L. Michael, Dr. A. E. King, Alpha McPherson and Stanley Hartwig, the accused in the action, The courtroom was completely filled by members of the congregation, The complainant said the inei- dent out of which the charge arose occurred April 23 on the occasion of the opening of the church. He testified he was told on entering the building, he could not enter unless he promised not to cause a disturbance. This he refused to do, Subsequently, he said, Alpha McPherson seized his arm and held it so tightly his watch left across the foyer and into the dea- marks. He said he was pushed con's room where he was forced over a table and more pressure was applied to his arm. When he cried for mercy his arm was re- leased. In cross examination Mr. Smith admitted having been ex-com- municated by the First Church of Seventh4lay Adventists, Torons to and also that he had been con- |victed of causing a disturbance in Halifax some years ago. The case is continuing.
