More Of The Facls Ahout Uxbridge | Hospital A district 'newspaper has recently carried the story that the Uxbridge Hospital has been assured of govern- ment support. This is true only upon condition that Reach Township as- sumes its share of the financfal bur. den. Unless this support is forth- coming the hospital is doomed. In an interview with Mr. Fred Tay- lor of Uxbridge Hospital Board, he reported that according to the Fifth Tax Interest Table the amount of taxes on a $5,000 assessment to meet a $10,000 debenture would be $1.42 per year or about % mill (.26) in- crease. This would mean that the av- erage taxpayer in Reach would con- tribute less than $1.00 per year in order to save the Uxbridge Hospital - surely a well invested $1.00. If it should be that the Uxbridge, Hospital venture colaspes it will, in all likelihood, mean that Port Perry Hospital will have to expand to meet the increased demands for hospital services. Should it ever become nec- essary to expand the Community Mem- orial Hospital at- Port Perry the in- creased costs would again come back to Reach Twp. to supply its shave, It does scem a shame to allow matt- ers to reach this point and to throw away all that has been accomplished | in the Uxbridge Hospital. Forward | looking tax payers can forsee that to get behind the Uxbridge Hospital' now will mean smaller costs to them in the long run. Word was received on "Wednesday that Lou C. Scott, the contractor, is proceeding with his lien charges to- day in Whitby. All the municipalities in the des- ignated area have pledged their supp- ort and it only awaits the assurance: from Reach Township to get the work started again.

Smith, secrttary of the National Safe- ty Council's Committee on Speed. Smith, a traffic engineer, pointed out that the Uniform Vehicle Code recommends that an auto's bright lights be capable of illuminating an | object 860 feet away. But at 60 miles an hour, a passenger car's stopping distance is 366 feet. "I'm sure that cars with properly adjusted sealed-beam units meet the requirements of being able to spot an object 860 feet away," Smith said, Yand most modern-day cars have seal- ed beam headlights, But they are not always adjusted, the lenses or wind- shield may be dirty. "A car's lower beam won't meet the requirement. With the low beam, you seldom can see more than 100 feet ahead, especially when the glare of an oncoming car's lights hit you, - Improper lights are probably a de- finate factor in one of every 100 fatal accidents, Smith said. Statistics indicate that, natioally, chances of a motor-vehicle fatality at night are three times as great as dur- ing the day. | 6 & 8 years, Rost Ellen Hannah; Bun- ny Hop 10 to 12, Janice Byers; girls 13 'and under, Janice Byers, boys 11 to 13, Jim Byers; ladies 14 and over, Mrs. Bruce Taylor gents 14 and over Stuart Dorrell; peanut scrambles were enjoyed by all the younger child- ren.

Ontario Not Affected By Asiatic Influenza Health Minister Mackinnon Philips said today his department is keeping a vigilant eye on the progress of Asiat- ic Influenza, particlarly in Europe and the Middle East. "To date", Dr. Phillips said, "there have been no cases reported in Ont- ario". The Health Minister went on to say that the few cases found in the United States, have been relatively "Present indications" Dr. Phillips continued, "are that this infection is mild, lasts 48 to 72 hours and incapacitates a person for approx- imately one week." We have no rea- son to expect dangerous complications. It is expected the problem will turn out to be the number of people affect- ed by the disease rather than its sev- erity. . The Minister said that preparations are proceeding rapidly towards the production of a vaccine. The extent of availability of such a vaccine will not be known until September.
