Mr. Moore circulated the sworn statement of Dr, Gerald Henry Gardner, DDS, among the members of the Council. Dr. Gardner swore: "... lady came to my house and ask- ed what our attitude was on fluoridation, and I heard my wife say that we were very much in favor of it. "(That) I put on my robe to, méet the person who was inter- ested in fluoridation. She intro-| duced herself as Mrs. Sturgess| and said she had a petition with respect to fluoridation "(That) when I spoke to her) I said: 'This is rather odd. We) have voted on it and it has been} decided'. She said there was an error in the wording of the by- law and it had been found that/ it was illegal and we had to! start over again 'as we want the best for our children'." (The petition was circulated before the actual introduction of fluorides into the water supply. It was for this reason, Dr. Gard- ner Stated, that he gave credence to the story that the bylaw was invalid.) Dr. Gardner added that he and Mrs, Sturgess then discuss- ed fluoridation "IT remarked to her that I was very interested in it and that we had made a survey of school children caries in Timmins "I had never found a report that contra-indicated fluorida tiom and I quoted the fact that the national, provincial and state dental societies had given it their blessing . . . I had known two or three dental men quite well who were opposed to it but they were not general practitioners who had not looked at caries for 30 years." PREAMBLE MUTILATED Dr. Gardner then. agreed to sign the list because: 'I said I would do anything to assist in bringing in fluoridation," He said he had been sick for a period of time and, because of this, he was unaware that the bylaw was actually effectual "There was no writing or typ- ing on the sheet of paper that was handed to me for. my signa ture, "When I asked for the pre amble she explained that it had been mutilated by children with grease "I did not see it any though I asked for it He said that at the time he expressed regrets that he could do -no more (for the cause of fluoridation) than to sign the petition. time though his name did not appear on the petition submitted him by Mr. Moore yesterday after- noon. although I observed what purports to be my wife's signature."

Durafilm gives you easier starting --greater gasoline economy. (Up to 10% better mileage in city driving.) Durafilm reduces repair bills by preventing contam- inants such as sludge, rust, dirt and water from depositing in your engine. Plug fouling and oil-induced pre-ignition are elimi- 'nated with new B-A Durafilm. Vv V Vv 4 YOU CAN'T BUY A BETTER MOTOR OIL Should you use B-A Dutafilm in your car engine? if you own a late model car or are planning the purchase of a new one, B-A Durafilm is the motor oil for your car. B-A Durafilm was created for the high-powered engines of today's automobiles. These engines are harder on component parts. Valves, cams, bearings and spark plugs are subject to greater stresses; higher temperatures. And crankcases are getting smaller, This means that these more powerful engines have to be lubricated with less oil. Obviously, the oi! must be a lot more efficient. Surpasses all car manufacturers' requirements. New B-A Durafilm motor oil has been fully tested under conditions pre- scribed by the car manufacturers themselves. In every case, B-A Dura- film surpassed by far the requirements of the most severe service tests, B-A Durafilm is not just a good motor oil, it is a vastly superior motor oil, your car engine run better, last longer and cost less to operate and maintain. Easy starting-greater fuel economy. New B-A Durafilm has a very high viscosity index. (Flows easily at extremely low tempera- tures and does not thin out at extremely high engine operating tem- peratures.) This means that extreme temperatures have less effect'on viscosity than is the case with ordinary oils. This makes your engme start easier and gives you better valve-lifter performance. You will get better gasoline economy, (up to 10% better in city driving). You'll also use less oil and have lower piston ring wear. B-A Durafilm absorbs contaminants. One of the functions of a motor oil is to "hold" contaminants such as soot, dirt and water and prevent them from depositing in your engine. When too many contam- inants get into the oil, it. breaks down and releases these contaminants throughout the engine. This clogs the engine with gummy deposits, sludge and rust. When this happens, you're faced with a big repair bill. New B-A Durafilm prevents this. Two grades of B-A Durafilm. New B-A Durafilm is available B-A Durafilm keeps engines clean. Newly developed and ex- tremely powerful. detergents and inhibitors have been used in new Durafilm. The inhibitors prevent oil breakdown at high temperatures. The detergents keep the engine clean. This means no clogged oil screens, no stuck valve lifters, no draggy pistons, no stuck piston rings. B-A's new detergent combination also eliminates oil-induced pre» in SAE 10W-30 for most driving conditions and SAE 5W-20 for exe ignition as well as plug fouling and engine ramble. Durafilm makes treme cold. B-A Durafilm Motor Oil is at your B-A dealer's now. IN EVERY B-A me]
