I cet occ a "WHITBY And DISTRIC Whitby Bureau Office 111 Dundas St. West Manager: Rae Hopkins Tel. 668-3703 NEW PHASE MARKED With the completion of the _ new School of Nursing and Residence to be opened offi- cially Thursday, another phase in the history of the Ontario Hospital, Whitby, has been com- leted. It has been an interest- = history right from the be- ginning some 50 years ago. Construction of the original hospital was started during| World War I and, indeed, the buildings were at first loaned to the Federal Government for military purposes. Construction work was done by prisoners from Guelph Reformatory. After the close of the war, the hospital was opened for patients and served well the East Central part of the prov- ince. Additions were. built as need for expansion arose, the most recent being the new patient Wing opened in 1958. The School of Nursing was begun shortly after the opening of the hospital and was very popular because of the quality of the teaching and training always insisted upon. However, advances in nurse education and the preference of students to train in general hos- pitals took their toll, and the school was scheduled to close when the present minister, the Honorable M. B. Dymond, MD. took over the Department of Health. He believed the Ontario Hos- pitals could, and should, train and educate nurses, and per- suaded government to estab- lish a new school at Whitby Croven Workers Veto Union Organization An attempt by IUE (Inter- national Union of Electrical and Machine Workers) to organize a union at Croven Limited in Whitby has failed, sources re- vealed, Monday. The application was turned down after the Ontario Depart- ment of Labor took a special rather than discontinue the func- tion. This was begun last year, and now, on completion, wil receive the first students with the opening of the fall training sorted The cost of construction has been almost one million dollars; and, when completely equip- ed and furnished, the total will 4 in excess of that, The school will accommodate 156 students, or a class of 50 in each of the three years. Not only is the school used for the training of nurses in preparation for the "Register- ed Nurse' examinations, nurses from many general hos- pitals spend some time in most Ontario Hospitals in psychia- tric training, since the Ontario Government operates more than 95 per cent of all psychiatric beds in the province. (We often lose sight of the fact that these total 47 per cent of all hospital beds in the province.) THE HOSPITAL AS AN INDUSTRY The hospital should not be looked upon primarily, or ever, as an industry, but the fact does remain that Ontario Hospital, Pipe Band To Add Color At Concert A special attraction at the fourth Whitby Brass Band con- cert to be held at Centennialj Park, Thursday, Sept. 12, at 8 p.m, will be music by the Cale- donian Pipe Band of Oshawa and Highland dancing by dancers from Mrs. Con- "lan investigation of alleged cor- Half Century History f OHW Interesting Whitby, is probably the larg- est single industry in Ontario) County, employing some 791 men and women on a year round basis. The annual payroll has now reached approximate- ly $34 million, and is steadily jrising. In this area alone there has been much change and pfo- gress over the past five years. Staff turnover, once a very great problem, is at its lowest level ever, due in large meas- ure to improved salaries, wages and working conditions. Not only have salaries and wages been greatly increased-- other émployee benefits include: 40-hour work week, three weeks vacation with pay, cumulative sick leave, what is widely be- lieved to be the best retirement plan in Canada, etc. All these have come into force and show that govern- ment is a .good employer. In addition, although not union- ized, the Public Service has bargaining rights through their Association and, a few years ago, an independent Grievance Board was set up to which the employee can turn should he aig wronged or unfairly treat- ed, Local purchases amount to LINDSAY, Ont.

The discussions would have taken place before the officials had completed their report. Mr, Frost was commenting in a telephone interview on state- ments by Liberal Leader John Wintermeyer during the Ontario election campaign that the gov ernment had changed the offi- cials' report to protect Gordon Lavergne, mayor of Eastview and Progressive Conservative' member of the last legislature for Russell. Mr. Wintermeyer challen: Mr. Frost to deny that he dis- cussed the report with the in- vestigators--F, G, Blake and C.

It was announced that Thursday, Sep- tember 12, Mrs. Colonel Simis ter of Belleville will be guest Change In Keport Denied By Frost W.

I didn't intervene what- ever, It was as it should be ac- cording to the powers given by the legislation.' Mr. Frost added that to have intervened would have been high-handed defiance of the leg- slature.

The opinion was probably obtained during their hearings -- 'before they rendered the report, in any event." Describing the report, which found widespread misuse of funds in the Ottawa suburb, as a "good" one, Mr. Frost added: "There's only one way in which Mr. Wintermeyer's remarks would have any validity: If there were a whitewash. Read it yourself and see if there was a whitewash." 2 Mr. Wintermeyer has said he has 54 photostatied pages of a report on the Eastview investi- gation which were never pub- lished. They contain 31 pages marked by circles, and the cir- cled passages do not appear in the published report, he said.
