OTTAWA NEWS LETTER HBAl/TH BSHiL WOULD AID RURAL FlARmS Vastly improved medical, hospital and nursing services for farm areas, village^ and towns is one of the prime oibjects of the Dominion Governiment's Health Insurance Bill, Hon. Ian MacKenzie, Minister of Pensions and National Health, told the Dominion-Province Health Con- ference here. Due to lack of doctors, nurses, hospitals and public health seivices in rural districts, sickness and death rates are much higher in the counti-y than in unban centres, Mr. MacKenzie stated. Less than six per cent of rural communities have fulltime medical health officers, sur- veys show. "Our people can enjoy full and vigorous health only if adequate facilities for preventive and cura- tive medical care of the highest standard are readily available to all, in-espective of geographic location kenzie advised provincial' ministers and financial status," Mr. Mac- and deputy minister^i gathered to consider the bill. The Dominion Health Minister made it plain that one main purpose of the plan is to expand hospital, medical and dental services in rural aeras . He suggested to the provinces that doctors and other professional people engaged under the scheme to serve the public be paid on a sal- ary basis in rural sections to ensure i.s good sTviee for people on farms 'nd in villages and towns, as for hose living in cities. "CHEMe TO COST â- 250,000,000 YEARLY Of the $250,000,000 annual cost f •omplete medical service to all, it is 'xpected' that $1SO,000,000 will he net by contributions of insured per- sons and that the Dominion will pay "he balance of flOO,000,000. Prov- nces would thus have to pay only ^ost of those unaible to pay the stip- ilated nominal charges. In this regard the impression is strong here that cost of the scheme to individoials will be reduced below the amounts : origtinally proposed. Financial details will be settled at a general Dominion-Provincial con- ference later. Individual provinces, having authority under the B. N. A. act over health, can join in the scheme or jiot, as they wish. But most have indicated their intention to participate. CANADA TO DEVELOP NiORTHERN OIL FIELDS Exploration and development of oil fields in the Northwest Terri- toines and the Yukon will continue with Dominion Govemmer-t en- couragement, Hon. T. A. Crcrar, Minister of Mines and Resources, told Parliament. At the height of the Japanese in- Alaska. vasion threat in 1942, the United States was given the right to develop the fields arouK-l Fort Nor- man, to rovide gasoline ar.d oil for Canadian and United States' forces along the Pacific Coast and in The U. S. spent §134,000,000 and uncovered a proven field of 4,500 acres, with an estimated reserve of 00,000,000 bai-rels of crude oil. Now that the Japanese menace has been largely removed, the United States is discontinuing its operations. iPrnperial Oil, Ltd., who did the drilling and production for the United States, has agreed to con- tinue the work at its own e.xipense. The Dominion Government will get one-third interest in all oil and de- velopments and 10 per cent of the net profits and can cancel the Im- Derial permits at any time. New territory will be opened up to all concerns desiring to explore and the Dominion will get substan- tial royalties and the i-ight to re- T>oissess such oil field's if deemed in the public interest. Canada now imports 85 per cent of its oil and Mr. Crerar said it is important to every Canadian that the Dominion develop its own re- sources. The SS.'J.OOO.OOO refinery and pipe lines built by the United States must be offered to the Do- minion Government after the war and if not taken by it sold only to such interests as the Dominion may approved.
