Cooler air starnL to take. over, the evenings begin t( shorten, our thoughts turn more to thf Canadian National Exhibition and pre. parations for- back ta- school for th£ youngsters. But we have to admit that the Civic Holiday weekend was gotgeous with rain at a bare minimum and sunshine providiiig almost ideal weather candi- tions for anything that anyone wanted to do. A great rnany folks spent most of the holiday on the-packed highways, uite a. few of thenM on the way to Expo, this year's place to go no matter if yau corne frorn Toronto or Calif or- nia. We have neyer seen traffic east- bound on highway 401 to equal thal en Saturday afternoon. If it continues to build up, there certainly will have to be another freeway buit in the near future, or the present one will have to be widened to eight lanes to handie the travellers. Police, tow trucks, the hospital staff and ambulance had a busy time of it with minor and major accidents that ruined quite a few out- Ings and also -caused one death in this area. Enough nef lection on the week- end, now let's look ahead to the imn- mediate future. What's conming up? They tell us that business should im- prove in the last haîf of the year, pro- viding more ernployment and the pas- uibility of more cash ta meet payrolls and rebuild profits. That certainly would be welcorne news toalal con- cerned if there weren't soene clouds on the horizon, such as the contract ne go- tiations at General Motors that could bring on a crippling stnike for this area or at least will again upset wage patterns in this region causing adjust- mnents ail down the line. Incidentaliy, mnany of those who have been employ- ed on construction at the new St. Mary's Cernent plant west of here, are now laid off because of a steel stnike, with no indication when work will be resumed. Let's hope it's soon for every- one's good. In political circles, thene is consid- erable activity in the off ing that shouid inake things interesting particularly for September and Octoben. The Libenal governrnent in Ottawa is meeting now, planning its prognam for the coming session. It no doubt will be laying the grouridwork for soene legisiation that it feels will be popular with a great many of the voters, thinking ahead to, a,.possible federal election next year. ie The. Conservatives have a "thinking ce Conferenice" on at the present time, g- hoping that out of it will corne some s fresh ideas to present tai thein leader- o ship convention early in September, ie which incidentally, should be one of e- the mnost exciting political events in a ke long time. Either just before this con- vention or shortly afterwards, it is ex- ic pected that Ontario's Prime Minister h John Robarts will cail a provincial elec- ýe tion for October. i- Locally, we should have an excit- d ing fail. We have heard rnurrnurings of ;t a local group of citizens who are stu- sdying ways and means of iknpro ving o representation and activities around r the town hall. Once September arrives, -they should resurne their meetings preparatary ta an election this Decem- t ber. After the letters we have received 9 the past couple of weeks, we can only hope they w ill corne up with sorne plan ta improve conditions at Bowrnanville ?Beach ta ne3tone this area ta its former ewell-kept resort status. Unfortunately, ta bring this about, they will also have ita find sorne way of clearing Lake Ont- aria of its rnelly algae, which will present quite a pnoblem. Sa, we can look fonward ta plenty of interesting action while we enjoy the next few weeks that rernain of summer and anticipate the faîl and w inter ahead. If you have already seen Expo and its glanies you rnight well take in the CNE, and the faîl fairs in this area whene you certainly wan't have ta wear your legs out walking or standing in line for the rnany attrac- tions. Yau might also contemplate what this centennial year has meant ta you and yours. From our point of view we have had a gloriaus birthday panty, but as with so rnany other cele- bratians we can't help wondering if wei might have been wise ta have been notj quite so extravagant. When Expo is finished, the caravans, the trains, the« games and so on are ahl over and the buis start coming in, aur binthday cele-1 bration rnay look not quite s0 rosy in retrospect. We rnay indeed be in rnuch the same situation as the couple who have a trernendous wedding with al the trirnrings and then find out later1 they could have used the rnoney ta r'nuch better advantage on home furn-c ishings instead of going fan into debtk for thern.C These are just a few thoughts thatta came ta mind and no doubt are being 0 considered by many other folks as they n return home after enjoying the Civie holiday weekend. Now, it's back ta t work until the next holiday. Have fun! c Is This ReaIIy Equity? Indications are that Ottawa is &!afting legisiation ta renovate Can- 3%daýs financially troubled unernploy- muent insurance fund and provide ievenues for higher benefits, perhaps by requiring all employed Canadians ta contribute, Currently only those earning up ta $5460 a year pay into the fund and, by gaing universal, an extra 2.5 million Canadians would be added ta the existing 3.5 million con- tributors. This appears ta be a for.n of rough justice and it was a recammendation cf the Gill Committee on Unemploy- ment Insurance, says The Financial Post. In the Canada Pension Plan and i n most hospital and medical insurance programs, the general pninciple is everyone pays in and everyone stands te collect. .5However, in this case, most of the 25million new contributors stand next J ta no chance of ever collecting a cent. It isin f essence, a $240 million net gain for the fund. and nurses) and civil servants are vir- j'tually assured of employment. The suc- cessful workers eanning more than $5,460 are unlikely ta lose their jobs; hand clearly. won't sit back ta, col1ect the few dollars in benefits that W~ill corne t heir way. In effect, they and their employers are being taxed exclu- sively, while Ottawa is able ta main- tain the appearance of nat having in- creased taxes at ail. If this is ail the federai govenn- ment does ta "fix" the fund, it lays * itself open ta much censure. The Gi people included universal coverage as * part of an overail pragram., This invaived: a propen irlsurance plan supported only by contributions from ernployees and e-.nployers to ab. senb the finst impact of unemployrnent; extended benefits ftom the public purse to thase who exhaust ýheir insurance benefits, taking seàsonal workers into account; an assistaie plan, alsa sup- ported by government revenues, to caver residuial unemployment on 'i rneans-test basis. In 1963-64, as the chant shows, the fund nearly went bankrupt when the number of clairnants averaged 376,000 a rnanth. The lesson from that debacle was that the unernployrnent insurance fund was asked ta bear much more than it should, especially when. season- al workers such as fishermen and lum- berjacks were brought in under the scheme. It is hoped that this lesson will sink in and that any a,.nendrnents ta the Unemplayment Insurance Act will place the scherne on a truly sound fin.- ancial' basis. Universal cavenage may boister the fund fan a while, but by itself is not a guarantee of permanent solvency. Four years have gone by since the GuI committee reported and it wouîd be iranical if the government were ta wait until another cnisis in the unemployrnent insurance fund forced action on the coSnmittee's rnost import- ant proposais.

Once a year, in co-opera- tion with the Canadian Insti- tute on Public Au airs, it stnikes back with a cunious sort ai teach-in devoted ta probing the deficiencies af other mass media and the politîcians who vote tax rnoney for its survival. This year's Cauchiching conference, the 36th ai its kind (the CBC has been a co-sponsor since 1952) at- :empted ta lay bane the ne- ality ai politics, so heavily obscured in the view ai nany delegates, by the '<im- age-makens" ai press, adven- ising and public relations. Promînent representatives if the media were invited te panticipate and defend them- selves from the shaits direct- ed at them by thein cnitica. As might be expected, the CBC, which sent a bountiful array ai some 40 vice-presi- lents, producens, dinectons, 'ee-lance contnibutars, cam- ,ramen, saundmen and head s. se ar e office secretanies ta the con- ference (ail, presumably, at taxpayers' expense) escaped senious criticism itself. But the admen, the public relations people, the poli- ticians (panticulanîy thase ai the aid-uine parties) and the press endured a constant barnage ai vitupenative as- sault. The conference theme was "The Image or the Issue". This soon nevealed itself as the dank suspicion that ail, or at least Most, was flot what it seemed ta be as pre- sented ta the guillible public in the fornmi o advertising and daily news. Although commercial tele- vision toak its lumps for presenting tnivîa and taste- less, nepetitive commercial messages, the cathode tube was widely credited with expasing palitîcal phonies, wants and ahl, in a way that the Press neyer could, or would. Newspapers, an the ather hand, wene accused ai ýdis- tortion and misrepncsenta. tion, ai forsaking objective repantîng in favor ai pro.- motîng palitical causes, bath in the news and edi- torial columns. Not ail this criticism came fnom the convention floor. k Mrs. Wm. Creighton and tdaughter Alice,NewBrigden, Alta.,who have been visit- ing ber parents, Mr. and Mrs. John Sanders, have ne- turned ta the West and will visit her brothers at Win- nipeg and sister at Lang- ham, Sask., enroute.

The adventising industry came in for special critica] attention. Its moguls, two or three ai them featured conference speakers, were charged with selling poli- ticians like saap, ai direct- ing rather than assisting major election campaigns, and ai raising the cost af many staples afi lue by aven- selling themn, eithen in pnint or by broadcast means. Only occasionalîy, and without great ent;husiasm, wene they also credited with raising standards and forc- ing the introduction afi mi- proved pnoducts by engend- ering greater sales campe- tition. "If it weren't for automno- bile adventising"l, said one unconventional housewife, "I'd stîll be dniving a Madel T". The adman on the plat- form at the time, George S in cl1ai r ai MacLaren's Agency in Toronto, led the astonished applause. Several p ubli ic relations men, including Frank Man- kiewicz, Senaton R ob er t Kennedy's image-maken in Washington, and Don Pea- cock, press assistant ta Prime Minister Pearson, ofiered the rebuttal that thein efforts are devoted anly ta telling the truth about their charges, regard- less af cansequences. But many delegates appeared unconvinced. As one young lady put it, in likening the social sciences ta bikini bathing suits, "What they neveal is inter- esting - but what they conceal is fundamental". The same might be said, in a more all-embnacingg way, fon bath the images1 and the issues ai the Couchi- ching conference itseii.
