Duncan McLeod in a ecent issue .of Macleans Magazine~, telîs the same story of the Niagara fruit lands. Here it isn't the authorities who are responsible s0 much as indivi. duals. Some have been forced into selling their lands for in- .dustiial purposes because sa %xnany others have committed this folly that taxes have risen ta a prohibitive level for a few acres o! productive farm- land. Because of industrial -competition, labor costs have also risen ta a new high. *Hamilton wants ta annex 2600 acres o! land In the fruit blct for industries. And what * 1 ta prevent it?

The area is historie; it grows one third o! Canada's fruit crop, woth about ten million dollars, and garden crops represent another 15 million. But that's a drap in the bucket compared with big industry, isn't it? On the pàrkland questia'n, Rodemick Haig-Brown in Toý onta Saturday Nîght has a fine article entitled "The Van- ishing Parklands and Public Conscience." The -writer h4ts in mnd' particularly the big provincial and national parkc. "Exactiy as population builds and parks become more neces- sary, so economnic and indus- trial pressures increase and there i. demand that parks bc thrown open ta exploitation," he says. He cites examples, as the largest park ini British Colum- bia, Tweedsmuir, being taken over for an aluminium pro- ject, and hydro-electrie dams and mining projects in others. The article is well worth read- ing and consideration. We es- pecially like this sentence near ils conclusion: "Sn long as the public turns and bows three Mrnes in the direction a! Ilpro- grecs" or "industriel develop- ment", Provincial egislatumes cen be dependcd upon ta make bad decisions about parks, and Hospital, Report - For the week cf May 8-15:ý Admissions Births, 7 maie, 4 femal.
