sditvutlp n haying interlude statistics statistics rajgtt statistics can be interesting the recent report by the ontario department of econ omics predicting a hallon population of 216000 by 1976 doesnt seem so ridiculous as one might think the population of helton in 1951 was uit 44003 end in 1961 the ceptui figures when released will show a population in ex cess of 111000 the increase there is well over double 1n 1956 the latest actual fig ures available by census showed a popula tion of 68297 and about 26000 of that total were under 19 years old more than half of the total provincial population increase between 1951 end 1956 was added in two regions metropolitan in cluding haltqn and niagara the report notes lhat urban areas generally tend to have low birth rates but notes the excep tion of halton and peel which both have higher than avorage birth rales because many of the citizens are young persons living in new suburban communities there are endless statistics in the report prepared by the ontario department of ec onomics and leafing through the pages can be both interesting and overpowering for instance something seemingly insig nificant is catalogued ontario has a higher percentage of households with both hot and cold running water piped inside than the nation as a whole there has been a steady increase from 69 per cent in 1951 to 68 per cent in 1960 then too you may be interested in know ing that wood was used in less than five per cent of the province s homes for heat ing in 1960 against 14 per cent in 1951 or perhaps you find it interesting to know that less than nine per csolcif the provinces homes were without telephones four per cent without radio 12 per cent without el ectric washing machines statistics can be interesting but wo al ways have a corlain sympathy for tho per son charged whh filling out the question- aires and tho person responsible fortheir tabulation provincial recognition the strategic location of halton has been acknowledged by the province in its de cision to construct the planned provincial school for the doaf in the heart of halton calling for tenders on the construction of the multi million dollar provincial facility was the milestone accomplished last week that will lead to the initiation of construc tion this september adequate land in the 97 acre site south of the countys halton manor has been acquired the only n two urh srhoo for the deaf in the province aro at belleville and toronto the addition of the third school indicates something of the population growth and progress in the diagnosis and special training for deaf children in the province eventually the halton site will provide accommodation for 450 children with 200 in the junior school 200 in the high school and 50 in the kindergarten the classrooms of about 10 children will permit highly in dividual instruction vehicular traffic is to be restricted to the perimeter of the campus and prohibited in aroas where children might be playing bocause of course the child ren do not respond to spoken diroctiorr fire alarms will be by light signals instead of sound the special planning involved in con structing a facility of this type is bound to attract attention of those in other provinces and indeed other countries the school will include the most uptodate facilities and equipment thatw4llmakottaraongthemi advanced of its kind anywhere that halton has been chosen as the site for such a facility and milton in particular is an indication of the important place the areas of the county will play as the popu- lat on and development of the province con tinues i we ii be pleased to welcome the school and congratulations to those who undoubt edly played a part in establishing it in hal ton political expediency at the end of the governments fiscal year march 31st last the unemployment insurance fund reached a new low of 185 million a year earlier the total was twice that amount and only a little over four years ago in december of 1959 the fund was at an all tjme high of 926 million it may be as some pessimists predict that the fund will disappear before this fiscal year is out when the insurance program was estab lished 20 years ago the ceilirig of annual earnings for insurable worker was 2000 this limit has been raised over the years un til in 1959 it was stepped up from 4800 to 5460 it was charged at the time that few people in this upper bracket are likely to be subject to lay offs and including them in the schenje is less a means of protecting them than of taxing them to bolster the fund at that same date the annual matching con tributions to the fund by employers and employees were increased from a minimum of 4 16 and a maximum of 31 20 to 5 20 and 48 88 respectively the changes were effective in boosting the fund s income in the year ust ended revenue totalled 330 million an all time high and up by nearly 50 million from the previous year but the 1959 changes also committed the fund to a higher outgo maximum week ly benefit was raised from 30 to 36 and the maximum duration of jegular benefits was extended from 36 to 52 weeks so while in the year ust past payments into the fond reached a new high payments from the fund climbed even faster and total led 510 million as has been so often said the basic problem wtth the v insurance program is that it has strayed so far from sound insurance principles it was intend ed to cover occasional and unpredictable unemployment it has been broadened to cover the regular and predictable layoffs of such seasonal workers as fishermen log- ers sailors and stevedores also no effec tive safeguards have been imposed to lim it the demands of persons mainly working wives who are voluntarily withdrawing from the working force and are not really among the needy obless in other words political expediency has nearly destroyed the effectiveness of the unemployment in surance program return trip an old lady kept asking the bus driver to tell her when they arrived at a certain small town she asked so often that finally the driver got nervous and passed through the town before he realized it he apologiz ed to the other passengers turned around and drove back then he said to the old lady this is the town where you wanted to get out who wants to get out she answered the driver said you did no she said my
