' i Auguet 30, 1963 @ THE OSHAWA TIMES, Fridey, ERMEYER -- ALLAN BEER ANSWER QUERIES ISSUE STAND ON PENSIONS Beer Challenges PORT HOPE (Staff) -- Dur- ham Liberal candidate Allan Beer last night challenged his opponents to: state their position in the pension plan has- sie. | The choice between having a provincial plan or a Federal plan is one that Ontario people will have to make, Mr. Beer Claimed. He said that he preferred the proposed national plan of the ' Federal Government, This i plan, he said, will start as soon as the Federal government can get the legislation through Parliament. How soon this will be will de- on Premiers Robarts and , Mr. Beer said. "This national plan will be administered by Government.

Premier Robarts prefers his own plan which will be operat- ed by private insurance com- panies, Mr. Beer claimed. The Tory plan would pay less benefits than the National Plan and would only cover part of the people in Ontario, the can- didate stated. Martin Sees Foreign Aid I Rival Candidates It would not be portable out- side the Province, he added. Mr. Beer pledged that he would outline, in detail, his views on agriculture at meet- ings throughout the Riding dur- ing the campaign. He said that he was concern- ed with the "necessity to con- trol the expansion of vertical integration in this county and throughout Ontario." » National Marketing Boards should be set up where farmers want them, Mr. Beer stated. He said that the dairy and tobacco industry had expressed the need for these national boards. The Liberal candidate outlin- ed the Liberal plan'for a new minimum wage and the geo- graphical area to be covered. "I say there is no reason why the workers of Durnam should not have the benefit of minimum wage legislation the same as workers in the Niag- ara Falls to Oshawa area have." HIKE MINIMUM WAGE The Liberals. want a general minimum wage of $1.25 per hour for men and women, ex- cluding farm workers and do- mestic servants, he said.

The jury found John Hayman and Sons Company Limited of London negligent by failing to comply with directives issued by inspectors from the Ontario department of labor, Tories Refuse To Work Liberal Leader Claims PORT HOPE(Staff)--Ontario Liberal Leader John Winter- meyer, speaking at a rally here last night, blasted the present Conservative govern- ment for refusing to 'work in the public interest." "They have lost their in- itiative and desire to work for the public welfare," he charged. "Only the fear of being thrown out. of power motivates them." Mr. Wintérmeyer was ad- dressing a 180-person rally sponsored by the United Coun- ties Liberal Association at the Dr. Michael Powers School. He constructed a comparison of social policies adopted and proposed by the present gov ernment with those advocated in the Liberal platform. - He attacked the Tory govern- ment policy on crime, medicare, minimum wage laws, pension| plans, and credit; and offered alternatives. The Liberal Leader chided the government for appointing a Royal Commission to investi- gate crime in the province and then not acting on any of the recommendations from the Com- mission, He accused them of acting in direct opposition to the recom- mendations of the committee by appointing an official of the Attorney - General's Office as OPP Commissioner "to tighten political control over the On- tario Provincial Police." "The government's own Royal Commissioner was shocked at this . . . (he) said control of the OPP should be removed from political influence and I agree." Mr. Wintermeyer then 'drew comparison between the medi- care plans proposed by both parties before the dissolution of the last parliament. "The Tories want to subsidize insurance companies so_ that everyone can buy a minimum, bare-bones policy." ' He said that companies would be forced to join forces to offer even minimum coverage to the aged, disabled, ill and poor, so that none of them would suffer extreme financial losses. "The Bill gives no indication of what the premiums would be. It does not even say that the province will pay for those in needy circumstances, "It only states that the prov- ince may pay or that the muni- goatty may for those on re- lief." LIBERAL PROGRAM He outlined the Liberal plan: "The government would pur- chase coverage from PSI and other 'non-profit, doctor-sppn- sored medical service plans for all who could not afford it, The Liberal plan would im- mediately insure the unemploy- ed, the disabled, welfare cases and. those over 65-years-old. Then a plan for all the people of the province would be nego- tiated. Mr, Wintermeyer predicted that this plan would cause no tax increase and that the prem- jums paid would be less than those now paid to PSI and other organizations. e stated that under the Lib- eral plan the fees of all doctors would be paid, and that pre- scription drugs would be sup- plied free to the unemployed, the pensioners, the disabled and the needy, Concrete legislation for the establishment of .a Minimum Wage Law was the third point raised by the Liberal leader. He proposed a fixed mini- mum wage of $1.25 per hour for all workers, male and fe- male, in the province with the exception of farm end domestic workers. "If you feel it right and just that a man with a family should be expected to work for less than $50 for a 40-hour week, then don't vote Liberal, "The Conservative Bill pass- ed in the last parliament didn't even set a minimum eage.' It just gave the Minister of Labor the power to act." Mr.. Wintermeyer disgressed from his prepared text and called for the deéentralization of industry. He asked that in- dustry be given the opportunity to expand to all parts of the province and that the trend to situate in the large cities be reversed. : HITS LOAN SHARKS He attacked the Conservative government for not acting earl- ier to stamp out "the loan sharks and high-interest artists that have been bilking helpless 1} or eral government true rates of interest and important terms would, by law, be in large print on all agreements, and that any lender or broker that failed to one with the regulation would forefeit any interest on the balance of the loan. PENSIONS The Liberal leader directed the attention of the audience to a comparison of the Robart government's "Portable Pen- sion Plan." and the Federal government's "Canada Penion Plan." : He pointed out that the provin- cial pian would offer a pension of only $145 per month includ- | universal old-age pension of $65 after 40 years of contribu- tions while the Canada Plan would Pt, $175 a month after only 10 years, Other aspects of the two plans were then discussed. He said that: the federal plan was the self-employed, while the pro- vincial plan was ayailable to employees' in indusies of 15 workers or more; e federal plan was scaled to counteract inflation, the other was static; were proposed in the federal plan and the provincial plan offered no indication of total cost or employee-employer divi- sion of costs. ~ Mr. Wintermeyer ing' a stand on the question of pensions, and pointed out that, due to legislation passed by the Conservatives, it would be pres- ently impossible for the people Canada Pension plan. Ontario take the lead in the -- of the federal plan. He stated that a Liberal govern- ment would amend or repeal the Portable Pension Plan of the Conservatives, and 'take the leadership in equalizing the standard of social welfare and and desperate years." "The Select Committee of the islature which has _ been looking into second mortgage loans, and mortgage brokers is showing the public some of the thievery that the Tories have permitted to go on for years. "The last public outery over second mortgage loans was three years ago and resulted in a bill requiring brokers to be licensed by government.
