B. Mitchell and Civic Officials Expect That Scheme Will Reduce Re- lief Payments By the City to Indigent People Over Seventy Pension Will Cover Cost of Maintenance of Indigent " Occupants and City Will Thus Pay Onefifth In- stead of Whole of Cost The Old Age Pensions scheme which is proposed in Ontario will benefit this city, in the opinion of Mayor T. B. Mitchell and civic offi- cials who are in touch with the sit- uation, While this view of Oshawa officials varies with that expressed by the mayors of certain other cities in a Toronto newspaper, the local view is borne out by what appear to be strong arguments. : "It is my opinion that Oshawa will benefit if the Old Age Pensions Bill I now before the Ontario Legislature is enacted," said Mayor Mitchell in an interview with The Times today. Mr. Mitchell expressed his opinion that under this bil. which provides that the city is to bear 20 per cent of the cost and the Provincial and Dominion governments the balance, hte city will be relieved of a consi- derable proportion of the relief money paid at the present time to people over 70. The bill provides that all persons over 70 are to be given a pension of $240 per year, this amount being low- ered where the pensioner is already receiving certain incomes, and the pension will not be paid to persons whose income reaches a certain amount annually, It is pointed out by civic officials and the mayor that, in many cases, the city is now pay- ing a considerable amount of money in relief to aged people who have not a sufficient income to keep them- selves, and, under the Old Age pen- sions scheme, the governments are taking a large portion of this ex- enditure off the city's hands, and leaving it with only a fifth of the pension to pay, The scheme would be a saving to Oshawa in another way also, Mayor Mifchell stated, This was in refer- ence to people from this municipality now in the House of Refuge at Whitby and, being classed as indigs ents, are maintained in that institu- tion by the city. The government will, under the Old Age Pensions scheme, give each one of these per- sons over 70, $240 per year, which is sufficient to cover maintenance in the institution, and the city will only have to pay 20 per cent of it. Oshawa's position in regard to the Pensions = scheme is different from that of most of the other municipali- ties, in this respect, that it is a city of rapid and "recent growth, and therefor the proportion of people over 70 is much less than the pro- portion in other cities, Mr, Mitchell said. This would make Oshawa"s share of the payment of the 20 per cent of the cost less than the per capita share of some other cities, No definite figures could be obtain- ed by The Times as to the number of people in Oshawa who might come under the provisions of the Bill. Al- though the = assessment, department last year had received a questionaire from the government asking for in- formation, it came after the assessors had made the most of their rounds, and they could not make a compila= tion of the figures. It was pointed out by City Assessor R. H. James that compiling the total number of people in the city over 70 would in itself be of no value, for, without getting definite information from each of them, it would be impossible to determine how many of them would be eligible for the pension, as the amount of their annual income would be unknown.
