The an- nouncement was made by E. H. Walker, president of General Motors of Canada, on behalf of the seven GM companies in Canada. The distribution this year rep- resents a return of $3.27 for each dollar saved by GM sal- aried people enrolled in the program. This return is based on the closing price of GM common stock on December 31, 1963. BASIS OF PLAN Under the program which began April 1, 1956, all GM salaried people in Canada with one or more years of continu- us service may participate vol- ly and save up to 10 per cent of their salaries. Today's distribution results from $1.042,- i savings by employees and $521,000 contributed by GM dends earned between January 1, 1958, and December 31, 1963, and appreciation in value of General Motors common stock, employees received 31,474 shares of GM common stock with a market value of $2,650,- 000, Canada savings bonds hav- ing a current value of approxi- mately $578,000 and $178,600 in cash. The distribution creates over 800 new Canadian owners of General Motors common stock which is available on the| changes. "The savings-stock purchase program offers GM _ salaried People an opportunity to make regular savings through payroll deductions and at the same time to become General Motors shareholders," Mr. Walker said. 81909 PARTICIPATE "Currently, 81 per cent of eligible salaried people are tak- ing part in the program saving an average of eight per cent of Salary.

Half of the employees' sav- ings is invested in Canada sav- ing bonds and half in GM com- mon stock. GM's contribution and all dividends are invested entirely in GM common stock. "Classes" under the program are formed each year and ma- ture five full years after the year of formation. The next distribution will be in 1965 for Commencing with the "class" formed Jan, 1, 1960, a partici- pation option was made avail- able consisting of a registered retirement savings plan under which part of a salaried per- son's savings may be used to purchase an annuity at retire- ment or other termination of service, | General Motors companies in} Canada include General Motors of Canada, McKinnon Indus- tries, Frigidaire Products of Canada, General Motors Diesel, General Motors Acceptance Cor- Motors Insurance Corporation. poration, Motors Holding and 'MAN IN THE STREET Talents Of al jawa was one of the two labor }10 had a substantial labor sur- OTTAWA (Special) -- market areas in Canada to im- prove its unemployment picture in November, the current edi- tion of The Labor Gazette re- veals, In its monthly classification of all Canadian labor market areas. the Gazette reveals that while 46 areas changed classi- fication toward greater unem- ployment in the month, only two,.

Mr. Curry also said that a national office for the 31 branches of the association, would be of great assistance to them and to any new branches. There were over 300,000 known diabetics in Canada, he said, and over 300,000 unknown. Only 4,000 diabetics belonged to asso- ciations, said Mr. Curry, and #2 \this was not a compliment to the country in which insulin was discovered. He urged more summer camps for diabetic children and more thought for senior diabetic citizens. "I ask you to join me in helping fellow diabetics," he said. Mr. Curry then showed slides on the Kiwanian camp for dia- betic children, Camp Banting, north of Ottawa. Camp Banting is one of the ten summer camps for diabetic children in Canada.
