2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Monday, November 9, 195y | WOULD BOOST INCOME TAX TORONTO (CP) -- Despite a plea for civility from a fellow worker, 2,000 federal civil serv- ants roared disapproval Sunday when a member of Parliament said he was against giving them salary Increases. Fred Stinson, Progressive Con- servative MP for York Centre, told a mass meeting he had in- vestigated civil service salary levels and found them similar to comparable jobs in industry. The uproar which followed sub- sided only when a postal em- pleyee walked to the foot of the stage and begged his fellow workers to behave like ladies and gentlemen. With each sentence still punc- tuated With booing and heckling, Mr. Stinson went on to say Fi- nance Minister Fleming had stated that proposed civil service salary increases would mean a personal income tax increase of 15 per cent.

Greeted with loud cheers, Paul Hellyer, Liberal MP for Trinity, said the wage dispute was the re- sult of an incredible mess the government had made of fi- nancial affairs. TORONTO (CP) -- Aino Pir- skanen, Finnish-born CBC ac- {ress, has been granted Canadian citizenship after a 16-year fight. Miss Pirskanen, 36, will re- ceive her papers here Tuesday.

"It breaks my heart to think of all the people in Ontario who will be needing help -- and there will be no Whytehaven to assist them." Provincial health authorities removed 97 children from the nome 14 miles east of Oshawa last July following an outbreak of infectious disease. A court ruled the children neglected and all but one now are placed in custody of their parents or chil dren's aid societies.

Last year the society decided to build a home elsewhere.

Mr. Davis is an artist with the surveys and mapping branch of the lands and foresis department which now is preparing six de- taled sectional maps of the prov-i ince's surface. His job is to draw the relief picture on eah of the maps com- piled from the branch's stock of fraction of their size, a magnify- ing glass, bottle of ink and a crow quill pen. The photographs were taken at various altitudes up to 12,000 feet.
