Mr. Johns told regional council members that slightly more than 5,000 people in the Durham region collected gen- eral welfare benefits last month. The highest previous figure was recorded in February, 1975 when 4,546 people were on the welfare lists, whicb was not far above the, Janeuary, An example of tasteless destruction occurred recently at t he Newtonville Cenotaph where unknown parties have broken two of the three flagpoles. Although Newcastle OPP were apparently not consulted, Coun. Ken Lyall aclvised the Statesmani of the situation on Friday. Conversation with Coun. Kirk Entwisle on Tuesday revealed the fact that the poles are to be repaired or replaced by a public spirited party in the person of Wallace Boughen aided by a group of Junior Scout Leaders. Quintet ai B.H.S. Monda y Evenîng Region I 265,000 Over 265,000 jobs will have to be available to people in the region by the year 2000 if Durham is to maintain its present level of "work and live" opportunities, an eco- nomie base study bas indi- cated. The study presented to the regional planning and de- velopment committee on Feb. 24 was prepared by the management consultant firm Woods, Gordon and Co. The report uses population figures that have been esti- mated by regional planners for the first official plan of the region. According to projections made for the officiai plan, the population in the region of Durham will increase to 660,000 by the' turn of the century. The report'by Woods, Gor- don and Co. indicates that there are approximately. 75,000 jobs presently in the tnat tnose on, welfare in the region were residents ratber than migrating welfare recip- lents from other parts of Canada. "The majority of welfare cases come from our own region," be said. Coun. Jim Potticary (Osh- awa) asked Mr. Johns if the region would be following the program proposed by the province to force able bodied recipients to take job offers or be refused benefits. "We have not received any instructions as yet from the Requires Jobs region's labor force to accom- modate the population of 235,000. The study also indicates that 85 per cent of the present labor force bas been able to find jobs in the region. Mr. David Douglas, a con- sultant with the firm, told the committee that 15 per cent of the region's population were "ýout commuters" with the bighest percentage in the Ajax-Pickering area. A fair percentage of people living in the northern township of Uxbridge commuted to jobs in the region of York and Toronto, the consultant said. "Approximately 60 per cent of the population of Ajax- Pickering commute to their jobs each day," be said. "The percentage is much smaller in the Whitby-Oshawa area," he added. In the study, the definition of labor force included every- Pre-Olympi"e rVALUE DAYSq He told councîl, however, that the social services de- partment already has, taken measures similar to the pro- posals of the province, "If someone in our area is able to work and refuses to take a job, we cut off bis benefits,"' The charges announced by the province also include refusing benefits to welfare 'recipients 18 years old and younger who have left home and are collecting because of it. attendants, he said. The report states that the number of jobs available to the labor force will have to grow at a faster rate than the population. "To attain the necessary level of long-termn employ- ment opportunities Durham would have to have 141,000 jobs Iby 1986," it states. According to the consulting firm, however, oinly 115,000 to 120,000 jobs will be avaîlable in the labor force of the region by that time. The report also makes predictions on housing in the future and the influencethat population growth will have on it. "The rate of housing de- mand will grow faster than the region's population with noný- family housebolds înaking -up an increasingly important component, " the repo;rt states. Fire, hospital and school services are expectect to create problems in the area of capital costs in the immediate future, Mr. Douglas said, but they will level off in the distant The Friendiy Peop 19 74 1974 1973 1 1973 1972 1974 I1974 The London Brass Quintet will be present ing a concert at the Bowmanville High School Auditorium on Monday, March 8thi at 8 p.m. Establishedseven years ago, the brass group's repertoire includes both classical and modemn works, and admission to the performance is $4 for aduits and $2 for students. EductionBoad's Finance Commttee Urges Restraint Ail schools and offices under the jurisdictîon of the North- umberland and Newcastle Board of Education were asked to make restraints in spending in a repbri given fÔ the board at a meeting on Feb. 26. The report hy the Finance Committee states that re- straints in spending are need- ed and will be required now that the provincial govern- ment bas imposed spending restrictions on education boards across Ontario. Unofficial communications from the Mînistry of Educa- tion have indicated that pro- vincial grant rates will be lower in 1976 than tbey were for both elementary and secondary schools in 1975, the report states. By applying the province s reduced rates to figures in the 1975 budget, the report shows that the new rates would reduce the budget by $524,150 for eiementary schools and $789.084 for secondary schools. The finance committee recommended that letters be sent to ail schools and offices under the jurisdiction of the board to inform tbem that the board is trying to restrain spending. Suggestions for turning down thermostats, switching off ligbts when tbey are not needed, voluntarily reducing long distance telephone calîs and saving paper and supplies wben possible should also be included in the letter sent around by the board to the offices and schools, the com- mittee recommends in the report. The committee's report aiso states that they hope that tbe scbool system will make a commitment to restrain spending and give information that would be, helpful in the new policy of restraint. The çommittee also recom- mends that 25 per cent of the 1975 f unds for extraordinary expense (capital) and main- tenance be made available in 1976. Ordinary expenses have been limited to 65 per cent of the total allowed in the 1975 budget according to the com- mittee's report. 1973 1_l973 1/ 1973 le o Say> $AVE TODAY UNTIL MARCH 31sf COU RIER Automatic, 1800 cc 4 cyl. engine.
