OltONO WEEKLY LMS HRDY L0EBR2t,16 T fo obtain approval for enforc- jr g thse existing Parking By-law for the Main'Street of Orono and to institute furthser Parkiaiig By- laws for other Orono streets as saggested by E. R. Woodyard, chairman of the Trustees, may be as difficuit to accomplih as it is' to now motor through 'the busin- ess section in its present chaotic condition. Opposition within the Police Irus4ees te the existing Main. Street Parking By-law is present- ly delaying the enforcement of tisis by-lawand could be a factor in further delays to bring somle relief to the present condition. opposition' was also expressed in establishing other parking re- strictions as suggested by thse chairman of the board. Parking irestrictions are cert- ainly' a necessity in any buil.t-up area as the middle of Orono. Not only is this section thse business heart of the Village but it aise fias the highest density of popu- lation. These two factors along wth narrow 'streets and no re- strict'ions develop the condition t1wa no(w exîsts. 'Tie Trustees are embarking on a proposed road re-construction p:an for a number of streets in te' centre of Orono at a cost of $108,000.00. This plan of re-con- struction. will be greatly reduced in value te, the Village if restric- tions in parking re not estab- lished and enforced. Good roads are of little use if it is necessary. to wind in and out, dodging park- cd cars 'and other obstructions. iefui success of the re-cen- stuinplan could very wefl lgeon the type of- parking re- stitosinstituted by the Trus- Thtisisu has been hanging fire far too long and -some decis- ive action and co-aperation is 110W needed and this piust be register- t-d wthin the three-man Police Trusjtee, Board. this Pi t sîei ~ xyTiursclay at tke o±L ,>f publicatio LE2babItshed in~ 198 by R. A. Forre(-ster Fý .) Fori ester -- EdItor anid Manager C riSes InHealth Ca"reâ Resursesz Pinpointed Th e Ontario Medîcal, Association býas performed a public service particularly pertinent at this time. When politicians are concerned about tlie 'consequences of the postponement of -thse institution of medicare, the Medical Association hias devoted an edition of the Ontario Medical Review- to emphasizing its concern of thr- consequences of hrînging in sucis a measure when thse country was so iii- equipped to handie t. Thre doctors who would be cha g ed with the respons- ibility of *servicing medicare empisasize effectively thse "crisis in hea'th resources." They point toý the seriousness of the sho-tage of doctors and otber healtis Personnenl, thre shortage of hospital beds, thse need for funds for research. Oin thse shortage of medical manpower, it is pointed out the doctor population ratio of 1:,766-in Ontario is mis- eadig. n 54 per cent of the doctors iný Ontario aie aaabeto tcake direct calis from the public. The otisers a ýeeosu a-ts, teachers, administrators, civil servants oi e ,-i oJ inl industry. The Royal Commission suggestion for raýining new physicians was' desîgnated to maintain thirt ratio, thus in 1991 the situation would be unchangeda far as number of doctors is concerned, yet the demand for doctors would be vastly increased. At present the Association has calîs for 63 doctors sxt. Ontario and enly. three Ontario physicians available to f111 them. Without thre immigrant physicians* (they made uj. 30f per cent of doctors beginning practice in 1957 to 1965t the situation would be desperate. Regai ding the shortage of accommodation, it is xe- perted that 10 of the province's iargest hospitals, with a total bed capacity of just over 6,000 beds, having waitiug lists requiring almost 5,000 beds. Jo reésearch, tire federal contribu tion of 90 cents per -, a fa- far short of the $650 per capita provided by thec fedleral goverament in the United Stateýs. On this basîs thse iaeris een that while Canada nilgis build. fine instits. tions :they'll be "devoid of the high quality *and number cf teachers essential te the provision of first-class personn'el in tire health field in Canada." It must be recognized that medical men have a de; , and' understandable aversion to anything resembiing gox- ernment pressures in their profession'. At 'the same ti-,, they are our experts in the field of health . care and as sue- their vwarnings should be heeded. To, Wtldrat Custom Sport Coupe with optional si ,l top.
