"The generous acceptance of an increase in membership fees has remedied this problem for 1963", he told close to 200 mem- bers. Mr. Riehl called the past year one of "outstanding pro- gress" and mentioned some of the achievements of the Oshawa Chamber. Before presenting the gavel, symbol of office, to new presi- dent Charles World, Mr. Riehl wished the new executive suc- cess in the coming year. don Riehl, right, spoke with Ww. J.

Further universal government pensions and universal plans of state medicine severely burden Canada's capital-hungry econ- omy, said W. J. Adams, presi- dent of the Ontario Chamber. In dealing with the Medicare issue, Mr. Adams said the Chamber was behind the plan advanced by Canada in Health Insurance Association. This plan, he said, would pro- vide medical insurance for the elderly and uninsurable. This 'plan would be administered by bers at a dinner meeting Monday evening, at which Mr. World officially became president. --Oshawa Times Photo more than 100 insurance com- panies on a pooled or assigned nisk basis, OLD AGE SECURITY Canada is making a mistake in studying the United States' old age security plan asa scheme to add to Canada's present flat - rate plan, Mr. Adams said, The U.S system is not an ac- cumuiated tax plan but a pay- as-you-go plan, "'just like our flat-rate Canadian system." Although there is a curb as to how far the Canadian govern- ment can go in hiking the bene- fits, the American plan is with- out curbs, the speaker said.

ANSWER TO DILEMMA The answer to Canada's so- cial security @elimma can be found in Ontanio's proposed plan for portable pensions, Mr. Adams said. The Ontario plan, in commit- tee now, has the following fea- tures, the Chamber president said. --The amounts of pension are strictly in proportion to employ- ers and employees' contribu- tions, --There is no cost to the State. ed but the resulting capital in- vestment will be in private en- tenprise hands (Pension Fund Trustees, Trust Companies and Insurance Companies.) --Government inspections and regulations to provide for sol- vency, --Higher pensions per dollar « cost, as much as 50 percent higher than in .U.S. Social Se- curity Plan -- because of in- vestment earnings. --It will aid Canada's economy by creating new capital in Can- ada's economy by creating new capital in Canada, reducing our need to borrow abroad. |chamber; Douglas Fisher, gen-| Also at the annual meeting, | Gordon Riehl, of Monteith, Mon-| jcommittee chairman reported! tejth, Riehl and Company, out-| NO RESTRICTIONS year.
