ORONO WEEKLY TIMES, TMMUSDAY, AUGUST l5th, 10 ORONO WEEKLY TIM1ES AuthorWed ii- Second Cas- Mail, Post Office Departmelit, Ottaw%ça. EstablJlihed in 1938 by R. A. Forrester RFoy C. Forrester- Editor and Manager A Net ded Seivice The re'cent announcemenft by the directors of the Little Charitable Foundation of Oronio to the effect that they have obtained a dentist to set-iup a dentist practice ia the Orono Medfical Centre, will surely be recognized as a noteable acconiolishmeant. Such a service has been lac'king in this commrIun ty and area for a numrber of years. Ilt is a credit ao the Founda1-tion in having Dr. R. A. Heston-Cook B.D.S. to practice out 4-f the Centre. Dr. R. A. Heston-Cook, presenitly of Stirling, will open bis practice la ýOrono on October lst. Appointments can be booked from September 9th by phonin'g 189, Orono. l' is to be lioped that this venture will receive the sp ortff the community and area, which we have littie doub't that it will. Again, congratulations are in orderto the Foundation in providing this needed service to the community. Should Be Nationial In Scope Recent developrmrents at bot the provincial level cf government and that of the federal government assure that contrtbutory goveriment pensions will be in force within -a short period of time. There secms little doubt that bath levels ù'f gover-nm-ent will seek to bring this legisiation into effect ndt formiulate the pension pnn. The public on the other annedonly one pension plan and either the Provinces or the Domuinon governmcnt is going to have to give Up on pensioni. It would appear that if we are ta have a government pension plan of à portable nature, that the most logicalI gov- erniment to administer the plan would be the federal. Through this media the plan could certainly be national in sc-ope and would provide a unîversal plan throughout Canada as a whole, Also it would be much ensier to be portable from one part af the country ta another and this is important in this era of mobility f the population. Provincial legisiation in setting up a pension plan could differ greatlly throughout the ten provinces and even with cases where no pension plans exist. Government con- trifbutory pensions should be national in scope and only thrlough.the Federal government can this be obtained. This view hias been uphelId by a Toronto evening paper who also found more desirability in the proposed federal plan ±inancially and thus favoured this over any provincial seheme proposed to date. Federal actuaries feel t'hat costs would flot be greater titan 2% from the employer and 2% f rom the employee. This cost rnay rise as does everytling. Of, course much bas yet to bo done in ciartfying government pensions. and we feel especially in establishing it where private plans now e;gàt. The brcblem arist. .. Can a persan beiar the oost of both pnivate and federali sdhemes? Is he te subsidize a government oheme even though he does not participate in the plan? The Goverament 0f Canada is to meet with the ton -Pýr»vinces in the miatter of contri'butory pension plans and the direction surely must be that the fedoral bouse should set Up the plan and administer it for allI0Canadians on an equal basis. Views 0f Others -MAKE THEM STAY WITHIN IT Gps Township Council bhas apparently been' oaught up in the craze for speed which is sa prevalent on our highways today. The members, according to a report of their most recenit meeting, have decided ta go along with a suggestion from the 'Onbario Dept. of Highways to increase the speed 1 mit on Highway 35 on its northexly course f rom Lindsay ta the Ops boundary from,50 to 60 miles per hour. R is sug- gested. that people don't drive within the limit anyway so it might as well be raised. This, of course, is ridiculous because raising the speed limit 10 miles per hour isn't going te ensure that people will stay within the higher limit . . . Ini tact, the chances are îît will be interpreted as license, to go another five or ten miles faster than the proscribed rate. tEx pect Excellent Tobacco h \~iJJ Ili11 1 J v itiI 'JAA1.~ Wth favoureble weather condi- tive age," said C.
