To provide a medical in- surance prognam, sponsored and financed on a contributory basis by the federal government in co-operation with the provinces and the medical profession so that no one in the country will suffer privation because of sick- ness or. ill health.

LEADERSHIP QUALITIES "A leader," said Mr. Cafik, "tis a man who has the respect and confidence of the people he works with -- a capable man, with the ability to make deci- sions and delegate authority. 'Mr. Diefenbaker has proven te the world at-large, he does-. not possess these qualities," he said.

The classes are held each week day night at the R. S. Mc- Laughlin Collegiate and Voca- tional Institute with George L. Roberts, principal of the school as co-ordinator and H.

PLAN BAR SALE William Tane reported the Sale of chocolate bars by Osh- awa school patrols will com- mence March 21 at 3.45 p.m. The sale of the bars is to raise funds to enable Oshawa to send two patrols from each school to the safety patrol jamboree in Ottawa May 9 to 11 The reason for the early starting time is to afford every school an equal chamce to start selling. A 10-pound chocolate bar will be awarded to the top salesmen. There are several other huge bars to be given to those who finish with high sales. Ted Middlemas, past presi- dent of the league, received a plaque in recognition for his service to the association in the last year.
