rules governing the release of information collected the government It about time For too long the official attitude both in Ottawa and in the pro to ward the disclosure of what could and should be public information has been the less aid the better All public business obiousl iiii in fionl i i the pit of But much of the inform toilette In the cox especi studies reports it direct Ixiring on decisions tint it feet the of should be kept The penchant for is in part the result of a belief bx in the inherent in of the public to understand those in according to this ire equipped to inter pret the government s information so it is better not to expose the fellow to all those facts The onh thing wrong with this is that those in authority do not hae a monopol on all the wis dom There just isn t a whole lot with exposing the taxpayers and xoters outside hose hallowed corridors of power to some of the facts that have been assembled for the decision makers- before they make a decision No need to panic Warm weather and abundant rainfall the perfect conditions for growing things tomatoes lettuce fruit and Because of these ideal conditions Ontario is now experiencing one of the three biggest outbreaks of encephalitis in North America this year Between and cases are suspected in Windsor others in the Samia St Catharines and Welland areas But in relation to the total population these figures cannot be termed epidemic proportions This word of comfort comes from Prof Russell Wright a University of Guelph entomologist There is no need to panic Prof Wright assures us Most people these areas are not going to become infected Healthy individuals even if bitten by a transmitting mosquito may suffer no more than a fever or headache There are some species of mosquitos in Ontario Most do not carry the encephalitis arbovirus Prof Wright has been conducting research on biting flies primarily on livestock for four to five years There are four major arthropod born viruses in North America which could affect Canada reports Prof Wright although all are a greater threat m the U S Western has been found in the prairies for a number of years with suspected cases earlier this summer m Winnipeg Eastern encephalitis has been reported only twice in Canada the last time 72 in Quebec The third group is St Louis encephalitis the type now found in the Windsor area The fourth virus the California group arbovirus has been included Never before have so many night school courses been offered in thisdistrict In addition to the usual classes in town there are courses offered at and Next week is Fire Prevention week About twothirds of all fires happen in the home so be par careful Firefighters find they can blame many fires on care lessness or lack of knowledge Fire safety in your own homes is to each person As the fire fighters say Think about fire Think a bit about it and prevent it Prof Wright research program this past year Although no cases in this group have ever been reported in Ontario Prof Wneht believes it does exist But what about another outbreak next year Even in the Windsor area Prof Wright says it is unlikely because of the special conditions it takes for the virus to be transmitted However he ad nuts there is a need for more research Those falling leaves Warm still days like Monday are perfect for leaf viewing The gorgeous colonngs line our streets and smother the hills Some rainy day soon the glorious leaves will fall under the weight of cold rain and the trees will be bare For the next seven long months So feast your eyes while you can Morris
