Fire, insects, and disease take as much wood each year as this industry. groomsman, | New Bri ghton Manager Well: Known Here Kenneth Pearce, son of Mrs. H. R.: Pearce and the late Mr. Pearce, of Newcastle, was appointed manager of the Canadian Bank of Commerce, Brighton, in May, and on June 15 as- sumed his new duties, Mr. Pearce came to Brighton from | the bank at Sudbury where he was accountant from 1948 and where it required a staff of 28 to handle their share of the business of this booming city. In 1939 Mr, Pearce married a Port Perry girl, the former Jean Cawker, whom he met while a member of the bank staff here. They have two children, Peter aged eight, and Claire aged six. Mrs, Pearce is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Aylmer Cawker. Starting in the old Standard Bank at Newcastle in 1925, Kenneth has had an interesting career and has seen many changes during that time. In 1928 he was transferred to Port Perry and it was .during this year that the Standard Bank amalgamated with the Canadfan Bank of Com- merce, The year 1936 saw Mr. Pearce moved to Lansing for two years, after: weathering the depres- sion years in Port Perry. Oakville was his next stop, and here he was promoted to the position of acountant. After three years in Oakville, Mr. Pearce went to Midland as account- ant in the branch there. In 1948 he received further promotion in being appointed accountant at the large and Busy branch at Sudbury where responsibility was great and the work strenuous. In the booming northern mining city of Sudbury, Mr. Pearce watched tremendous growth in popu: lation, mining activity and the bank- ing business. The new manager of the Brighton Canadian Bank of Commerce there- for is well equipped in background and experience to perform capably in the new capacity to which the Bank has promoted him.

Paul Mastin, Minister of | spent | the day in Ontario Riding where he spoke at 'meetings in Port Perry and Oshawa.on behalf of the Libeyal can- didate, Mr, John Lay. His Visit to this part of the province is the final leg in an extensive tour that has taken him. to more than a score of points in Ontario, reaching as far west as Fort Frances and Sault Ste. Marie. The Health Minister winds up his cur- rent trip to-morrow: with meetings in Brighton and Belleville, In a speech prepared for delivery at Port Perry Wednesday afternoon, Mr. Martin dealt with what the Federal Government has done for health dur- ing the past fou and a half years. "The federal National Health Pro- gram", he declared, "is perhaps the greatest single events in Canada's health history. 'It stands as a monu- ment to a great Canadian statesman, the late Prime Minister King, whose name holds a special significance for those who will have the opportunity on August 10th to vote for John Lay. "Under this program", Mr.. Martin said, "more than $167,000,000 has been' available to the provinces to help. them in surveying their basic health needs; in building additional' hospital ac- commodation; and in strengthening health facilities and services in such fields as tuberculosis control, cancer, mental health and programs for erip- pled children." The Health Minister felt that this program was one of the most exciting news stories of the day, but unfortunately, a story that had never been adequately told to the Can- adian people, "Just think", he said, "how this pré= gram has reached out-into our daily lives. These grants "have directly touched the lives of fully 76 per cent of the Canadian people". In indicat- ing a few of the major advances made possible by this federal program, the Health Minister pointed out that more than 8,600,000 people, or 60 per cent of Canada's entire population are now served by health units; that with the aid of these federal grants, more than 2,000,000 .free chest X-ray examina- tions are now given each year to help discover tuberculosis in its early. and curable stages. For cancer sufferers, he pointed out that diagnostic services have been provided to more than 100,- 000 persons. "Iive years ago, in all Canada, there were only two impor- tant cancer research projects under- way; today there are more than 100, thanks to this program. 4 An interesting feature of is pro- gram", the Health Minister stated, "was the preventative medicine, particularly in the development of improved services for children." He cited as examples the gréat increase in school health seivices, in child guidance clinics, in child and maternal health care facili- ties and the tuberculosis immunization programs that had been developed for children. At his evening meeting in Oshawa, Mr. Martin reviewed what thé present government had done in the broad field of social legislation, "In the great emphasis placed on HON. PAUL MARTIN past four measures to care for human need, no country has done more than Canada", he declared. "From 1949 to 1953 the Federal Government has been able to increase its annual investment in hu- man welfare by more than 50 percent", "To increase the magnitude of fed- eral programs for social welfare by one-half in only four years", Mr. Mar- tin believed was "a truly-great human- itarian achievement, Most of this in- crease", he pointed out, "has been to help our older citizens those who have reached 65 and need help "and especially those at 70 or after who now receive a sure reward for what they have done to build this rich, re- sourceful land."
