Section Two The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville. October 6. 1976 9 Bermuda's a Great Place for a Picnic A loaf of bread, a bottle of wine, and the Bermudas for a nicer way to spend a afternoon? Visitors who i Bermuda, which offers a variety of food carts and ol lunching locals and visitors alike. HAMILTON BERMUDA - - quaint Bernuda cafe, but Bil Guide Michelin has probably Saints has heard of Michelin - never heard of Bill Saints' he knows they make tires for his restaurant. The only rating Bill's Mobile /ULSAY Canteen would ever get from Michelin would be 8.70 x 16, six ply, but his loyal followers, ABOUT M/DDE BAGE from dockhands to dowagers, S claim the epicures' Bible doesn't have enough stars to BR/NGS PEOPLE do Bill justice. Officially listed by the Bermuda Government as MARTY'S Auto Repair 3 Queen St., Bowmanville 623-3896 itinerant restaurants, Saints' mobile lunch counter and several more like it have been providing Bermudians and an increasing number of visitors with filling, low-cost meals for years. Every day about 10:30, they drive to their assigned beach- side or city parking areas, open a variety of doors, windows and hatches and let the aroma of simmering food advertise their arrival. Marvels of ingenuity and compactness, the wagons are sunshine -- who could ask ike picnics are in luck in ther facilities catering to fitted with refrigerators, freezers, ovens, grills, steam- ers - - everything necessary to prepare meals on wheels. Saints' two wagons were converted from mobile banks to mobile restaurants. "The only green stuff we carry now is the lettuce in the fridge there," he quips. According to all of Bermu- da's 13 mobile lunch counter owners, the demahd for their services from visitors seeking a quick, cheap and tasty meal while enjoying the island's climate and beaches is in- creasing. Saints, who has served as a head chef in everything from an Army kitchen to luxury hotels and cruise ships, be- comes part-time socialogist, philosopher and economist in analyzing the increase in lunch wagon business. "People enjoy Bermuda by being out of doors and meeting Bermudians," Saint says. "That's why they like us so much. They can go to the beach and find one of us close by. People also don't have as much money to spend as they used to." "I don't have to charge as much as a restaurant does for the same food. Once I've paid my annual licensing and insurance, except for my gas, oi, tires and electricity, my overhead is taken care of. Besides, I don't have room enough in here for a waitress even if I needed one." In Bermuda, people are loyal to one lunch wagon just as they are to one cricket or soccer team. Wilfred DeGraff, probably the senior lunch wagon owner, draws his regular clientele of insurance executives, paint salesmen, labourers and pas- sersby to his little corner of the Hamilton City Hall park- ing lot. They swear by his homemade beef pies as they cool off under the beach umbrella spread to shade the truck from the midday sun. Those who patronize Sim- mons lunch counter on Front Street will walk blocks for his hamburgers. Saints, whose wagon at John Smith's Bay attracts many sun-bathing Bermuda visitors, introduces them to curried mussel, mus- sel and beef pies, corned beef cakes, fish cakes and banana A lot of people like the Royal Bank 'frTerm Plan Loans. For when it makes good sense to borrow. Should I1Borrow is a question we al ask ourselves at one time or another. But now it's a lot easier to come up with the right answers. Because the Royal Bank has put most of the answers into a new booklet called "Should I Borrow?" It explains how interest and time payments work, how to examine your budget to see what you can afford, and almost everything else you should take into consideration. Why not drop in today and pick up your free copy. If you have any questions, please corne see me or one of the staff.

Whatever their specialities, the wagons have one thing in common - - the highest price on the menu is around a dollar. The lunch wagons are not alone in providing moveable feasts for both local and visiting outdoorsmen, which include just about everyone who comes to the island for a holiday. Nearly every hotel will prepare box lunches to take along on a day of sightseeing, cycling or sailing. They usual- ly include sandwiches, fruit, cheese, cake and possibly a salad and are priced at around $5. Neil Hansford-Smith, the former principal of Bermu- da's Hotel College who now toils in the aromatie atmos- phere of his own patisserie, pushes "Neil Meals" - - the English equivalent of a sub- marine sandwich constructed of beef, ham or tuna with lettuce and tomato all careful- ly nestled between the slices of a fresh roll. Also available from Hansford-Smith's pastry counter are Cornish pastries, crammed with diced beef and potatoes, or sausage rolls. Hamilton's Shabazz restaur- ant on Reid Street also offers mouthwatering local delica- cies including carrot, bean, beef and mussel pies, whole wheat cakes, and their spe- ciality, steak sandwiches served on their own freshly baked rolls. Supermarkets, of course, also offer cold meats, fresh English cheeses, bread and occasionally wine or beer to take along for arf impromptu beach pienic. If you desire a moveable feast, Bermuda is the place to find it.

The most important achievement has been the drop in the inflation rate. A year ago, consumer prices were rising at a rate of 10.6%. By August 1976, that rate of increase had dropped to 6.2%. This fall some unavoidable increases in energy costs and municipal taxes will affect the rate of inflation. In spite of this, the first year target of an inflation rate of no more than 8% will be met. Increases in al forms of incorne-wages, salaries, fees, profits, dividends-are also being successfully restrained. On the average, prices have gone up less than-wages this year This means that most Canadians can cope a bit better, we have more buying power than we had before the program began. The goal of the second year of the anti- inflation program is to bring inflation down even further, to no more than 6%. This can be achieved only if increases in everything slow down together In our kind of market economy, prices have to be able to move up and down to some extent. But the anti-inflation program does put an effective restraint on prices by controlling profit margins. In the second year, the price and profit controls are being changed to make the rules simpler and to apply restraint more fairly among different companies. They also include important incentives to encourage the investments the country needs to make the economy grow and create new jobs for Canadians. New investment credits will make allowances for company profits re invested to boost production and productivity In the area of wages and salaries, the second year Guidelines limit increases to 6% as a protection against price increases,with 2% mare added as a share of national productivity Government I of Canada Gouvernement du Canada This Guideline is designed ta protect and improve the real income of orking Canadians, while bringing down the rate of inflation. All govemments are restraining their expenditures. The federa government is limiting growth in its own spending to keep it in line with the overall growth of the Canadian economy This means that every day hard choices must be made to limit new programs and trim old ones. These choices are painful. But they have to be made if the government is to restrain its costs and avoid contributing to inflation. Nobody likes controls. Not the people whose private decisions are affected by them. And not the governments that have to enforce them. But controls were and are needed, to bring inflation down and to assure a growing economy The program will be terminated by the end cf 1978 Until it is ended, the government is committed to making sure the controls work hard to bring about a continuing reduction in the rate of inflation. Inflation has ta be cut down ta protect our personal buying power, our savings and pensions, and jobs for Canadians. If last year's spiral of rising prices and incomes had continued, Canadian-made products would soon be unable to compete in world markets. Imports could easily undercut goods produced and sold here at home. It's especially important for us to keep our prices and costs competitive with the United States, and on both counts the U.S. is still doing better than we are. Finally inflation also hurts investment. And when investment goes down, unemployment goes up. After a year of controls, inflation has come down. Progress has been made, in protecting Canadian jobs and improving Canada's well being. The success of the anti-inflation program so far has depended a great deal on the co- operation of many Canadians With continued co-operation, we can all look forward ta sharing a more prosperous and growing economy COMPLETE KITCHEN DESIGN and LAYOUT CUSTOM KITCHEN PLNCENTRE PLAN NOW FOR CHRISTMAS ORDER BEFORE OCTOBER 15 and SAVE 120 One of our representatives would be pleased to give you an estimate with no cost or obligation 799C Farewell Ave. Oshawa 728-8783 or 728-1221 THE ANM- INFLATION PROGRAM AREVIE W YEAR ONE
