) 2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Soturdey, May 9, 1964 GOOD EVENING -- By JACK GEARIN -- ¢ DR. WATT'S WORDS SHOULD BE HEEDED DR. WATT When will the powers-that-be start listening te Dr, J. EB. ( Oshawa's outspoken director of Environmental Sani. Public concern, indignation he expressed in 1961 when he bluntly informed City Hall that hundzeds of children were swimming in two civic Pools with a bacteria count as high as that found in the "effluent" outside the City's Sewage disposal plant. The pools were closed, Dr. Watt told the Civic Af- fairs commitee of the C of C Friday that the City's Food and Shop bylaw (governing restaurants) had plenty of teeth, but it was not rigidly enforced -- he will seek per- mission next week te do this. He says members of his three-man inspection staff -- woefully inadequate in size for proper surveillance of the Ci ty's food catering outlets -- sometimes visit an establishment as many as eight or nine times before the proprietor decides to carry out the depart- ment's recommendations, a deplorable and discouragiing sit- uation that should be corrected without delay. What does he recommend? He would make it compulsory by law for all food handlers, ineluding restaurant proprietors, te attend special classes in food handling -- no establishment would be permitted to operate , or handler to work in said establishment, without a graduation certificate. Restaurant proprietors and food handlers simply will mot attend such courses on a must pass a test before he can volutary basis, "A plumber get a license," said Dr. Watt, "but anyone can start up in the restaurant business without the least bit of know-how, trai MUST FIND NEW TAXATION "We on City Council have ning." SOURCE been meeting with the Board of Education to discuss their proposed five-year capital ex- penditure plan for such things as eonstruction of schools, alse additions to them, I can tell you here today that this is going to make heavy new demands on the tax dollar. also tell you that the average I can home owner is carrying just about as much as he can carry in the way of municipal taxes and that, therefore, some new source of taxation must be found if we are to meet these requirements." ALDERMAN WALTER BRANCH, chairman of Finance, to the Civic Affairs committee of the Oshawa C of C Thurs- day, Mr. Branch deserves credit for publicly acklewleding that the average home owner has about reached his maxi- mum tax load; as chairman of finance, his words have spec- fal meaning. What Mr, Taxpayer wants to know is this -- when is City Council going to cut down on needless and obvious municipal waste, such as that $175,000-$2 00,000 annual expenditure in the Board of Works Yard for 27-odd employees for whom there is no work, or little work? Council is understandably concerned about lopping these men off the payroll, but what has Council done to remedy the situation? Has it made any constructive plans for their transfer to departments where their services could be used, or has it buried its head in the sand, hoping that the passage of time would remedy the situation? With an election campeign approaching, each Councillor individually should answer these important questions.

(CP Wirephote) Servicemen To Get Cash On Separation OTTAWA (CP)--A cash set- tlement will be paid to service- men with more than five years of service who are forcibly re- tired by the defence depart- ment's new program to inte: grate the navy, army and air force. Maximum will be 10 months' pay--up to $15,000 for senior of- ficers, All payments are sub- ject to income tax. Associate Defence Minister Cardin announced the bonus plan Friday in the Commons, saying it is designed to relieve the hardship of prematurely-re- tired servicemen in reverting to civilian employment and com- pensate them in part for the pay and pension benefits they would have received by serving until normal retirement age, It will apply immediately to the 500 officers being retired by the RCAF this. summer as sur- pus to air crew requirements. Integration plans call for eli- minating 10,000 armed services personnel in the next two years, thus reducing the total force to 112,000. It will be done by comining many of the "house- keeping' activities now carried on separately by the three serv- ices. WILL QUALIFY Most of the 10,000 men in- volved in the reduction will qualify for the new bonus, Oth- ers won't because of normal re- tirements. Those with under five years') service aren't included because they have no present pension rights anyway, Also, they haven't been out of civilian life I sition difficult.

Answering questions from the audience of 280 executives at the business conference at the University of Western Ontario, Mr. Drury said the U.S. real- izes there are only two means of righting Canada's imbalance of trade--limiting imports or in- creasing exports. He addedt hat the U.S. reec- ognize that the latter is the best plan. Under the auto incentive plan, Canadian auto companies can earn a rebate of import duties --varying between 17% and 22 per cent--on an amount of im- ports equivalent to increased exports to the U.S. In the "rst two months of 1964, Canadian auto-parts sales to the U.S. were $6,500,000 ahead of a year earlier while American exports to Canada had increased by $32,000,000.

"One student from (MacKen- zie's) residence came in to us last Friday all hopped up and we sent him to the infirmary to settle down," he said. ONE FAINTED Another student said a stu- dent who had been taking pep pills fainted after completing an examination and had to be car- ried from the reom. A survey by the student serv- ice commission last winter showed that 37 per cent of male students used the pills, when under pressure and 18 per cent continued their yse, About 36 per cent of female students used the drugs regularly.
