It would also set standards and prices for the insurance that private companies make available to those who can af- ford premiums. In neither case would the insurance be compul- sory. . The government would pay all premiums for persons with no taxable income. Premiums -|would be subsidized for per- sons with small incomes. If the bill passes, it would take effect June 1, 1966. Health Minister Matthew Dy- mond, who introduced the bill, estimated the cost of the pro- gram to the government would be $70,000,000 in its first full year of operation. Asked about a possible tax increase, he said: "I let the provincial treasurer iworny about that." SEES $175 COST Mr. Dymond said the premi- ums haven't been set but it ap- peared family coverage would cost about $175 a year. He estimated there are about 1,000,000 persons in Ontario with Ino taxable income and about 800,000 that would qualify for subsidized premiums. , Insurance would cover phys- icians' and surgeons' care, ma- ternity benefits, annual check- ups and psychiatric treatment, The government's decision to offer a publicly-operated med- ical care plan for low-income families appeared to be a vast change in its thinking since No- vember, 1962, It was then that Premier Ro- barts first announced that a medical insurance bill would be put before the house.

One contract will be the same as that provided under the pub- licly-operated plan, The second will be a "co-insurance"' con- tract in which the insured fam- ily pays the first $50 of medical costs during the year, plus 20 per cent of the remainder. Its premium costs will be lower. The government will establish a new division within the de- persons, The division will be lo- cated in the Ontario Hospital Services Commission building so it can use the commission's administrative machinery in its operation. A nine-man medical services insurance council will be estab- lished to administer the medical care legislation. It will be ad- vised by an association of pri- vate insurance companies, to be i |known as Medical Carriers Inc. The carrier corporation will recommend the level for premi- ums initially, and thereafter ad- vise on any changes in pre- mium costs, WILL BE FROZEN For the first two years of the scheme's operation, the pre- mium costs will be frozen. The corporation will also ad- vise the council regarding the benefits to be offered, and the dates of open enrolment pe- riods, To guard against persons try- ing to buy medical insurance only after illness has struck, enrolment periods will be held only once a year. After enrol- ment there will be a waiting liga for coverage to take ef- ect. turned after government Rangers reoccupied the city which was overrun by Viet Cong guerrillas May 11.

Its findings, to be- submitted to Justice Minister Favreau, will help the federal cabinet de- cide whether to lay criminal charges against a junior civil servant for his part in a sex- and-secrets plot which already has produced the expulsion, of two Soviet embassy officials. Prime Minister Pearson said in a Commons statement Tues- day that consideration is being given to prosecuting the un- named government employee, who accepted "thousands of dol- lars" from the Russian spies over several months and con- fessed to his sins only when confronted by. the Mounties jearly last week. The civil servant, employed in a 'non-sensitive" job and de- partment outside Ottawa, cur- rently is 'gravely ill" and on sy leave, the prime minister said. LIMITS QUESTIONS His illness, which Mr. Pear- son said was due to natural and not self-imposed causes, is lim- iting police in their interrogation of him, With this and other factors outstanding, both Mr. Favreau and RCMP sources said they could not estimate when the in- vestigation might be completed and a report handed the justice minister, Among the other factors a parently is the scope of the stilt active probe. Mr. Pearson told the Com- mons it might be advisable "as the investigation continues" to provide other party leaders with confidential briefings on it. Some observers took this as an indication that more than the question of prosecuting the civil servant is involved. PM Praises Second Canadian Whose Actions Shattered Plot While raising the possibility of criminal charges against the civil servant, the prime minis- ter had warm praise for a sec- ond Canadian directly involved in the espionage plot, first un- veiled Saturday in an external affairs department announce- ment_ that Soviet Commercial Attache A. E. Bytchkov and embassy clerk V. N. Poluchkin had been expelled from the country. This individual, identified onl; as a naturalized citizen, ha come to the RCMP from_ the very first approach by the Rus- sians and co-operated with se- curity officers throughout the case, This, said Mr, Pearson, was the action of a 'conscientious and patriotic Canadian" and was "certainly to be praised, not censured." Deaf-Mute Jamie Goes To Milton TORONTO (CP) -- Jamie, an eight - year - old emotionally- disturbed boy and focal point of controversy for a month while a ward of the juvenile court, will attend a school for the deaf at Milton, Ont., a judge said Tuesday. Jamie was taken before Judge William Little April 13 by his mother, who said she needed help. She said the only way she could get it was by bringing him into juvenile court as an incorrigible child, SUES In the case of the civil serv- ant, '"'the circumstances unfore tunately were different." Although under RCMP sur- veillance for many months, he made no effort to report to or co-operate with security officers until they went to him last week, Only then did he provide them with "some useful infore mation." With evidence from the natue ralized Canadian, the civil serve ant, and a "number" of Canadians involved in the 6 ring on a second-line basis, government confronted Soviet Ambassador Ivan Shpedko last Tuesday and told him Bytchkov and Poluchkin had become "per+ sona non grata" in Canada, They left for home Friday. Their -departure raised to seven the number of Iron Cur- tain diplomats ousted from this country for espionage activity by the Gouzenko affair in 45, Two of the previous cases, a Soviet attache in 1959 and a Czechoslovakian secretary a year later, were brought to light for the first time in the prime minister's statement Tuesday, As far as Canadian citizens are concerned, however, there have been no prosecutions in relation to espionage cases jsince 10 individuals were con- victed of various offences aris- ing out of testimony by former embassy cipher clerk Igor Gou- zenko two decades ago.
