SURGEON NOTED FOR RESEARCH Uxbridge surgeon, Dr. John A, McIntyre, in the July issue of the Canadian Journal of Surgery, has three case reports printed on his re. search in acute duodenal obstruction secondary to traumatic hematoma. -- Research in this particular field was carried on over three years and more particularly when he was resident at St. Joseph's hospital in Toronto, The medical discovery has to do with this acute intestinal obstruction which is considered a rare occurence. ~ Cases happen most frequently in children but.can occur in adult life.

Arrell, chairman of the Ontario Muni- cipal Board Hearing announced that permission was granted to proceed with the Sutton Sewage System. Mr. Arrell reached his decision af- ter hearing almost two hours of dis- cussion on the proposed system. Approval of the Board is only ten- tative, but-allows council "to proceed with the drawing up of plans and the calling of tenders. If the tenders received are within 109% of the esti- mated $288,000 cost, the system will be installed." If the tenders exceed the 10% figure, the plan would have to go before the Ontario Municipal Board again, z The surprising feature of the Hear- ing, was the lack of objectors against the system.

This easy way has a strong attraction, particularly for politicians or stern disciplinarians. It is the way of compulsion, There is a less simple but much more effective way of getting things done. This difficult way has a strong attraction for individual men and wo- men, but it does not appeal to stern disciplinarians. It is the way of vol- untary co-operation. Our society, many years ago, elected to choose the less simple but more satisfying and effective way -- the voluntary way. Here on the North voluntary society. The theory was that men and women, working volun. tarily in their own best interests, would do better work and in the long run get more done. Under that voluntary system there was room for many individual mis- takes and individual successes. Fail- ure was punished, impersonally; suc- cess was rewarded, impersonally. No big boss called all the shots or de- cided the reward or punishment. It appeared to be an awkward, compli- cated, loose, disorganized method of getting things done---but it did leave men free, and men have always want- ed freedom. To the surprise of the pessimists, it created the highest living standards in the world -- not just for the few, 'but for the many. Periodically, of course, problems arose. To solve them, the easy way, compulsion was adopted. Govern- ments, which in the beginning limited themselves almost entirely to the job of protecting the voluntary system, gradually began to use a bit of com- pulsion here and there to solve some immediate and pressing problem. There is no denying that compul- sion, by the government, backed hy the army, works quickly.

Movement of Farm Implements I'arm safety specialists with the Ontario Department of Agriculture recommend that farmers moving ma- chinery on Ontario roads and high- ways get the recent Ontario Depart- ment of Transport publication entitled "Farm Implements on Ontario's High- ways", This publication describes, in a very readable question and an- swer style, the Highway Traffic Act as it relates to the movement of farm tractors and machines on the high- ways. It explains the legal status of a tractor travelling alone, or pulling a farm implement, It tells how to get a special permit, free, which allows you to move farm equipment that is larger than norm: ally allowed by the Act. In the in terests of safety it tells why certain restrictions are imposed. It tells you that a farm tractor i not a MOTOR vehicle under the Act, hut it is a VEHICLE and any require- ments for vehicles apply equally to farm tractors. For instance, did you know that your 15 year old son may ments began imposing more and more compulsion as the answer to each pressing problem, Today, our society is still mostly voluntary; but each year sees a few more scliemes based on compulsion being proposed. It is the old easy 1 hope North Americans will awaken to the danger, and start now to solve their problems through voluntary co- operation instead of compulsion.
