i Sh ER TE EPRIDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 1948 "THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE NINE 'Drew Favors Expansion Canadian ocial Security Plan P.C. Leader ader Warns Constitution Must Not Be Weakened Toronto, Nov. (CP)--George Drew, National leader of the Progressive Conservative party, said Thursday night that he is in favor of health, social security and public construction plans which go beyond those put forward by Open N New Girl Guide House Here -- Afternoon |Open Research Foundation In Ontario City London, Ont,, Nov. 5--(CP)--The Shute Foundation for medical re- search into treatment of heart and circulatory diseases was officially opened Thursday. Ceremonies included a banquet in honor of 'three district researchers --Dr, Evan V. Shute of London, his brother, Dr. Wilfred E. Shute of Guelph, and Dr. Arthur Vogelsang of London--whose use of vitamin E in treatment of heart disease and other conditions has stirred a cone troversy in the medical world. Commenting on criticism of the use of vitamin E in treatment of heart, vascular and kidney diseases and diabetes, Dr. Evan Shute said a major criticism "has been that we have claimed too much, I am sur- prised that in the epoch of penicil- lin or the sulpha drugs or benadryl this should be regarded as a valid objection." "If penicillin had to wait 14 years for recognition, we can wait an- other day or so, too," Dr. Shute said, HAS TWO NAMES The North Sea, between the east of England and the northern part of Europe, is sometimes called the German Ocean. the Federal government. "I believe, however, that they can ®---- and must be financed without im- posing new income taxes and a poll tax such as that insisted upon by the Dominion government fat the £.946 Dominion-Provincial confer- ence)," he said in a speech, broad- cast over a national network as one in the CBC's free-time political series, "The Nation's Business." "I am also convinced that we must not endanger our federal system or weaken our constitution when we put them into effect." Mr. Drew said that, since he was chosen as national leader of the Progressive Conservatives a month ago, there has been "a very notice- able effort" to create the impres- sion that while he was Premier of 'Ontario he opposed measures which 'would have been to the advantage of the other provinces. One provincial premier had said that Mr. Drew prevented adoption of the health and social security plan put forward by the Federal government. "He attended the conference and therefore knew that his statement was directly contrary to the facts," Mr. Drew said. . "In many Other cases, I know that this criticism is made in good faith 'Pecause my position at the confer- ence has been misrepresented by fhe Dominion government through every one of the costly propaganda ge gencies under its control. So far it as been impossible for me to deal effectively with this misrepresenta- 'tion except in Ontario. Now for the first time in the wider field I am 'able to put this record straight." ! Mr. Drew, as Premier of Ontario, headed the province's delegation to the Dominion-Provirkeial confer- ence, "Having regard to some of the statements you 'have read, you may be surprised to know that at every stage of the conference, and since then, the Ontario government ad- vocated and in fact was the first to advocate, a national program for health, social security and public construction." Mr. Drew /said that, to pay for the proposed health and social Se- curity measures, the Federal gov- ernment suggests imposing a five- per-cent tax on all incomes, without exemption of any kind, in addition to present income tax. In addition, it proposed the levy of an annual poll tax, then estimated at $12, on every person 16 years of age or older, whether working or not. "Behind the proposals of the Do- minion government was another very objectionable feature. They proposed that the provincial gov- ernments should give up their most important taxing powers in return for annual subsidy payments . . ." Mr. Drew said a national health, social security and public construc- tion plan "mus depend upon a . clear understanding of the constitu- tional position of the different gov- ernments, and there are very good reasons why such a plan would not be workable if the provincial gov- ernments are to be dependent upon gid subsidy payments in place of meir own taxing powers for a sub- ntial part of their necessary revenues." HOUSE LEADER Quebec, Nov, 5--(CP)--George C. Marler, 47-year-old member of the Quebec Legislature for Westmount- St. George (Montreal) division, was chosen Thursday as House leader of eight Liberals in the Quebec Legis lative Assembly.

Toronto, Nov. 5--(CP)--A half- pint locomotive, only five feet high and weighing eight tons, is on dis- play in a downtown department store.

Owen Sound, Nov. 5--(CP)-- A new hosiery plant is to be built here by a local group headed by Leo. H. Liddell. It will be the third stocking plant in Owen Sound.

The builders have removed old inner walls giv- ing the interior improved spacious- ness; the narrow sash windows have been replaced with wide case- ment windows allowing the maxi- mum of light, and the furnishing and decoration would please the most exacting. It is both beautiful and practical. The walls are panelled"in satin finish plywood in natural colour and the floor covering is a soft grey Modern furniture of limed elms along Swedish lines is upholstered with sponge-filled cushions in French blue and, coral vinylite and the drapes which have the appear- ance of block linen, are printed with habitant figures. framed in splashy blue squares. Large Recreation Room The large lower recreation room has a grey stone fireplace, sturdy work tables and stacks of tubular metal chairs with French blue lea- ther -seats are ready for lectures or banquets. A" painting of a typical Canadian Girl Guide, presented by the Henry K. Wampole Company hangs over the fireplace. Opening off the entrance hall on Oak Street, which will be the entrance used by the Guides and Brownies, is a locker room with storage cupboards built around the walls for each company; an upto- date washroom and a well-equipped kitchen in which cooking will be taught and banquets prepared. The woodwork and cupboards of this housewife's dream are in azure blue with counters of stainless steel, emphasizing the blue and grey dec- or used throughout. There is a two oven electric range and an enorm- ous counter type refrigerator. The cupboards are filled with cups, sau- cers, plates and dishes in unbreak- able coral plastic ware, and every- thing in the wi of utensils from giant carvers to potato peelers can be found in the drawers. Tea-toweis and pot holders are all in blie and white. For serving refreshments there are handsome hammered alumi- num 'trays and grey pottery créam and sugar sets. Bowls and platters inthe same grey pottery are there for flowers or attractive centre- pieces and pyrex ware for baking and making scalloped potatoes are neatly stacked, ready for use. Has Board Room & Upstairs is another meeiing hall similar to the one below though not quite as large and adjoining it is the board room where the exe- cutive council can meet Grey, blue and coral are the predominating co- lors used again in this room, with. antique elm lamp tables and lamps which have coral parchment shades. This room will be available _to the Mothers' Auxiliaries, the Guid- ers Club and the Brown Owl's Club and the local association. In the basement an oil burning furnace has been installed and a fire escape added from the upper floor. Not one thing have been overlook- ed. There is even a janitor in resi- dence to keep this Guide House the pride of the Dominion. As one little Guide said.
