But it's not that simple. Many people have the erron- eous idea that pollution control equipment can be purchased anywhere at a moderate fee, installed for even less, and presto -- nothing but clean air. At Whitby's Lake Ontario Steel Company, anti-air pollu- tion devices have been installed in its principal building. They will have cost the company $250,000 by the end of July. It is a common cry that com- panies don't want to spend their money to stop air pollution. It's not difficult to see why. First, any money spent on pollution control is a total write- off, a difficult situation for companies with a small profit margin, or those whose sales are declining. Secondly, sales taxes must be paid on all such equipment installed, even though they can hardly be considered as profit- making devices. Finally, even though a com- pany may elect to spend thou- sands of dollars on consultants and engineers to devise a sys- tem for its plant, there is no guarantee that the system will work. In LASCO's case, the prob- Jem began in 1964, when sev- eral employees walked out be- cause of the dense smoke from the furnaces. In the meantime, a second furnace was added, doubling the problem. In August, 1965, the company began installing a massive fun- nel-system to draw smoke from the furnaces. Originally budget- ed for $75,000, the installation on the first furnace cost more than $135,000, and a second had to be installed. On its completion at the end of July, the second device will have cost $120,000, bringing the total investment to more than $250,000. Then, there is the matter of jpkeep on the i it, which LASCO head engineer James Although the. system at LASCO is described as 95 per cent effective, there are times that, 'by necessity, the air must be polluted. into the furnaces, molten metal is poured, or fhe furnaces are checked, the huge funnel-type system of pollution control must be temporarily disconnected.

The cost of borrowing the money necessary for the purchase is normally included as part of a monthly payment, which is made from the bor- rower's earnings until the loan is repaid. The new Consumer- Protection Act helps the bor- rower to understand his com- mitments by obliging everyone selling on credit to state clear- ly, in writing, the true cost of the credit he is offering. This provision, and others in the Act, will not relieve the con- sumer of his normal responsi- bilities of shopping carefully and choosing wisely; but it will make it easier for him to make the right decisions. These important provi- sions of the Act will affect everyone buying or selling on credit on or after July 31st, 1967 Disclosure of the cost of borrowing In all time payment trans- actions the lender must pro- vide the borrower, before credit is given, with a clear written statement showing the cost of borrowing both in dollars and cents, and as an annual percentage rate. The lender must also set down in writing the additional charges he intends to make if the borrower should default on payments. Cooling-off period Credit sales by /tinerant sellers are affected by this new ruling. An itinerant seller, in the Act, is anyone who sells goods or services away from his perma- nent place of business, and makes a charge to the buyer for the privilege of paying for them over a period of time. Under the Act, any person who buys from an itinerant seller has the right to cancel the contract, provided he does so in writing, personally delivered or sent by registered mail, within two working days of receiving his duplicate of the contract. If he cancels the contract, the buyer must return any goods he has already received, at the seller's expense; and the seller must return any money or trade-in which he has received. When a trade-in is involved, the goods given in trade only become the seller's property after the two-day cooling-off period has expired without the buyer cancelling the contract. Registration of itinerant sellers No person shall carry on busi- ness as an itinerant seller after July 31st 1967 unless he is registered under the Act. If the seller is a company or a part- nership, only the company or partnership must register, not the individual employees. Information to be contained in a contract The new Act lays down the details required in a contract' for the sale of goods or services to a consumer where the pur- chase price is more than $50.00. For the contract to be binding, it must be made in accordance with the Act, it must be signed by all parties, and a duplicate original copy must be in the possession of each of the parties. Repossession After a buyer has paid back two-thirds or more of the pur- chase price of the goods, the 4 \ DEPARTMENT OF FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL AFFAIRS seller cannot repossess or re- sell the goods in case of default until he has obtained permis- sion from a judge. Other matters The Act also deals with rebates when payment is completed ahead of time, with permitted ways of advertising the cost of borrowing, with assignment of negotiable instruments, with unenforceability of liens on other goods, with false adver- tising, etc. Penalties Substantial penalties are pro- vided for contravention of the Act and its Regulations. All lenders and sellers likely to be affected should make them- selves familiar with the Act. WHAT YOU SHOULD DO Borrowers and buyers should bear in mind that nothing in the new Act re- lieves them of the respon- sibility of making careful decisions when .consider- ing aloan, or a purchase on credit.
