ONTARIO RIDING Parliament approved the new en- larged Municipal Winter Works Pro- gram at the end of the week and this | meant that some $40,000,000 was available for the Federal contribution | to work undertaken by some 2,200 municipalities across Canada. Look-| ing over the figures, I note that some | $180,000 has been expended as the] Federal Government share for winter | works in Oshawa and district since the program started in 1958. | Not a considerable sum, perhaps, in. comparison with the amounts provided | through Public Works for harbour | improvement and dredging; but, ne-| vertheless, significant in providing | employment during wintertime for many of those who otherwise might not have had work. I might say that when this item was passed this week, it also meant that some 100 municipalities, whose accounts were already in for this win- ter, could now get their money and be in a position to pay their bills. On Monday my colleague, the Hon- ourable Minister of National Health and Welfare, introduced a resolution raising the Old Age Pension by $10 a month. This is now being debated in the House and will then be passed as a Bill and is expected to become law] within the next two weeks. This is a matter of considerable in- terest to more than-1,000,000 old age pensioners across Canada; and it is noteworthy that among the audience in the House of Commons galleries this week have been a number of el- derly persons in the over-70 class. When_the Bill goes through, it will mean that pensioners will have bene- fitted by total increases of $19 month- ly since the present Government first assumed office. At the same time, Speaking in the House on Thurs- day, I pointed out that unemployment was lower by 115,000 than at this time last year ,and as a percentage of the labour force was the lowest it had been in December for five years. At the same time, some 180,000 more Canadians were at work. I also stressed the fact that the Government would continue to imple- ment measures to stimulate the econ- omy and to provide jobs, until such time as every Canadian who wanted to work was able to work. Perhaps the most significant fact in assisting the export drive has been the devaluation of the dollar and this has meant a vast increase in the sale of Canadian products overseas; and this in turn has been reflected in in- creased industrial activity and more jobs for Canadians. One of the encouraging develop- ments in recent months has been a marked increase in automobile pro- duction accompanied by higher em- ployment in the industry. Production was up 20 percent in the automobile industry, while employ- ment rose by 6 percent. This does not mean that we are out of the woods by any means; however, "a continuation of present trends, along with a degree of stability in labour- managment relations -- such as the | agreements recently concluded in the automobile industry--will be reflected by a high level of employment and continuing security over the next few years. Both management and labour ean |: take credit for some of these develop- ments; because, in spite of prelimin- ary' difficulties, there seems to be growing evidence of a greater degree of co-operation on both sides, in order to keep the economy f gear. This has been the key to success in Europe where management and labour have sat down together to deal with such problems as automation, export markets, training and up-grading of | workers and so on. It is evident that these principles must be applied here and there are encouraging signs that management rolling in high Manchester | Mr. Jim Stevens, Toronto was at his home here for the week-end, | We are sorry to learn that Mr. | Edward Mole is not so well, Sympathy is exended to the family of the late Mrs. Sarah Cook, who passed away on Friday evening at Port Perry Hospital, Mrs, Cook was a resident .of Manchester until her health fajled.

Of Many Things By Ambrose Hills READ A BOOK Last night I talked to a man who is a pretty fair curler. I asked him if he has ever read a book about curl- ing. To my surprise, he had not. He was simply a natural at the sport, and that was that. It is surprising how many people 10622 -- -- his future. He didn't seem to be get- ting anywhere, he said. I brought out a book I'd picked up full of vocal exercises. One of them, called the "hung E", was a favorite with Caruso. My friend hadn't reali- zed that as he was in the business of projecting his voice on the multitudes, he might learn something about it from books. He started practising these exercises, and then went on a search of the libraries for more of them. He became a top performer, but because he was bright in a variety of ways, he was promoted beyond the announcing chores. Books It seems so foolish to plow along! { the hard way when experts have so many tips they provide almost free. Politics, too, engages the attention-- or should engage it--of most citizens these days. They would be able to understand what is happening now much more easily if they read a few books on political history. There are many excellent ones in the libraries. Check up on yourself, Have you read some books lately ? If not, you're cheating yourself. Get busy and brush up. Farm Safety Conference The fourth annual Farm Safety Conference and Annual Meeting of the Farm Safety Council of Ontario was held at the 0.A.C., Guelph, on Febru- ary 6th and 7th, 1962. Over 800 farm people gathered at Guelph to take part in this conference and to hear a number of addresses on safety. The theme of the Conference was "Farm Safety Leadership in The programme included discussion started | - him on the upward path just the same. | | Representative, Uxbridge.
