A thorough and comprehen- sive study of the causes of in- fant mortality, was urged to- day by Oshawa's medical offi- cer of health. Dr. C, C. Stewart said the study should be conducted to find out why there are varia- tions in the rate of deaths in different regions; what the ac- tual causes are; and how the rate can be lowered. The study, he added, should be directed by senior levels of} government. Dr. Stewart said he was not able to explain the "fluxuation" in Oshawa's infant mortality rate. The five-year city average has been 22.9 deaths per thou- sand babies born. the rate of death," said Dr. Stewart. Of the 31 deaths in Oshawa in 1965, 14 were at- tributed to prematurity, five to congenital malformations and 12 to other causes. "I don't think anyone really knows all of the factors which influence the infant mortality rate or what can be done about the factors we do know of," said the MOH. MENTAL HOSPITALS Mr. Lewis also criticized most mental hospitals in the province for not asking local public health units to follow up with community treatment for patients released from Ontario hospitals. Dr. Stewart said in the past Into Infant Mortality it has not been unusual for a patient to be discharged from an Ontario hospital into the community with the family physician and the health unit not knowing about the dis- charge. Sometimes, he added, the first time the doctor or the health unit knows a patient has been discharged is when the pa- tient is in "acute difficulty". Two-way lines of communica- tion between hospitals and doc- tors and health units must be established and maintained, said the MOH. "There has been some effort made but there is still a lot of room for improvement," said Dr. Stewart. In 1961 there were 20.8 deaths per th born; in SAFETY DAY SLATED, BUT... A federal government safe- ty campaign for children has been organizéd for Sunday, May 1, but somebody in Ot- tawa forgot to tell Oshawa "organizers" about it. Purpose of Child Safety Day is to make adults more aware of their responsibilities in pre- venting child accidents and to train children in _ safety habits. The campaign is sponsored by the National Safety League and the Canadian Highway Safety Council in co- operation with clergy. "Clergy of all faiths are expected to participate Strongly," a Safety League circular states, But Rev. D. R. Sinclair, head of the Oshawa Minis- terial Association told The Times Thursday: "Never | of it." And Constable Bill Mor- ring, police safety officer, said: 'This is the first I've heard of the campaign. Who's organizing it?" 1962, 28.0 deaths per thousand; in 1963, 21.4; in 1964, 26.9; and in 1965, 17.5. ALL LESS THAN ONE The MOH noted that the rate includes all children less than one year of age. In the Ontario Legislature Thursday, Stephen Lewis, NDP- Scarborough, said infants have a much better chance of. sur- vival in certain areas of On- tario than in others. Mr. Lewis said the provincial average is 23 deaths per thou- sand babies born but noted tha the average in Grey County is almost 32 per thousand. He mentioned severai other rates including Oshawa's which he said was 26.6. Dr. Stewart said he believes Mr. Lewis was quoting the latest figures available from the Dominion Bureau of Statis- tics which were for 1964. The MOH said the actual 1964 fig- ure in Oshawa was 26.9. The chief causec of infant Plan 'Far From Scrapped' To Redevelop Bus Station Bus terminal redevelopment plans are "far from _ being scrapped", says the president of the firm which operates the downtown Oshawa station. Thomas Lemon, president of Tedel Ltd. said today pro- posals for redevelopment of the ti block bounded by King, Prince, Bond and Church sts., will be presented to city planning board and council's traffic com- mittee in the near future. A special board meeting scheduled Wednesday night on the redevelopment proposal was cancelled. G. A. Wandless, city planning director, said the com- pany has indicated it will sub- day. The redevelopment was on the April 13 board agenda but the company did not have its plans completed and the mat- ter was postponed. Frank Slywka, one of three partners in Tedel Ltd., said ne- gotiations with the city have been underway for more than one year. "The city wants so much space for Public Utilities Com- mission buses it is an almost impossible situation," he said. Details of the proposed re- development are still sketchy but a new terminal for city and through-city buses, stores, off- street parking and possibly a mit preliminary plans on Fri-|motel have been mentioned. mortality, said Dr. Stewart, are prematurity; congenital mal- formations; respiratory dis- tress and infection; and birth| injuries.

Public Utilities Commission- ers last night received a compa- |rative operating report which showed that during the first three months of i965, the bus department had a $4,239 net rofit. The total net loss recorded in 1965 was $47,559. SERIOUS STUDY J. B, Annand, PUC manager commission mem- bers and officials are giving the deficit situation serious study. A slight increase in passen- ger revenue during the first three months of this year was }more than offset by increased expenditures. Operators, wages are up $10,- 700, bus maintenance and re- pair is up almost $5,000, bus debenture charges are up about $5,000 . and building operation and maintenance is up $7,000. (Building rentals are down $3,- 750 -- the PUC bus department 'moved from a rented building to a new Fareweli st., building 'officially opened in June, 1965). In other bus matters the com- mission: --approved a new blue and white bus stop sign which ev- entually will replace all exist- ing signs; -- agreed to provide a limited service on Normandy and Lo- mond sts., in the Christine cres., area on a trial basis for several weeks to see if it is reasonably economical to esta- blish the service. A route sche- dule will be sent to all area residents before the limited ser- vice starts. Scouts Receive Their New Flags King Street United Church Scouts..and Cubs will be pre- sented with new flags on Mon- day to replace those lost in the disastrous fire that destroyed their church in January. The presentation 'will take place in the Memorial Hall at- tached to Simcoe Street United Church. The flags are to be presented by representatives of the city tiga Order of Odd Fel- lows.
