4 @ THE OSHAWA TIMES, Friday, May 14, 1965 Lewis Implores Delegates TORONTO (CP) -- Delegates at the Ontario Welfare Council conference Thursday were to register their opposi- tion to the province's proposed new Child Welfare Act. Stephen Lewis, New Demo- eratic part member for Scar- West, told 150 welfare workers they should object to the act giving municipalities fi- nancial contro] over children's aid when many municipalities have proved themselves to be not "overly generous" in their welfare programs. A children's aid society would) have to negotiate a new budget'statement made earlier by Dr. each year with its municipality, he said. Mr. Lewis said the new act would make the province pay 40 per cent and a municipality 60 per cent of the child care and protection costs. This financial formula was contrary to cost- sharing plans in other fields of legislation, and was not th method suggested by either the Ontario Welfare Council or the welfare minister's own advisory committee on child welfare, he said. DEPENDS ON RULES | Mr. Lewis agreed with Elizabeth Govan, professor of social work at the University of Toronto, who had said much of the act's effectiveness depended| on regulations devised by the government. Mr. Lewis, who was not in- vited to the conference, also at- tacked the section of the pro- elposed act that says two chil- establish a group home or other facility and get 50 per cent paid by the government. ; "Where will the rest com from? I suggest we will have to go back to voluntary appeals for charity funds,"' he said.

Mr. Allan said the new tax will mean no increase in price of cigarettes. It will re- place the existing three - per- cent sales tax on cigarettes and provide a more efficient method of collection. The primary change involved, by the new legislation will be a one-quarter-of-a-cent increase on the tax of a price of a pack- age of 25 cigarettes.

ARE INEFFICIENT During another part of Slconference Dr. Patrick Bruce- Lockhart of Sudbury contended that public medical care pro- grams are inefficient. The doctor, a past president \of the Ontario Medical Associa- volved in "plodding" committee procedures and "maddening slowness'? when they adminis- ter such programs. He was a member of a panel discussing medical care. Dr. John Hastings, of the Uni- versity of Toronto school of Hy- giene, said there was nothing in- herently wrong in government- run schemes. He said it depends on how well a program is set up. D. F.
