Don't forget that 2 of our Free Canadian blood eliminates Hepititas In the United States, 17.000 people every year suffer from hepatitis, a liver disease they contract from tainted blood in hospi- tal transfusions. And, according to official reports - of the U.S. Department of . Health, Education and Wel- fare. 850 of them die. In Canada, there is hardly any hepatitis after transfu- sions and deaths are virtu- ally unheard of. The reason is that Cana- dians give their blood freely to Red Cross blood banks while in the U.S., commer- cial blood banks pay donors -- between $5. and $12. a pint -- and charge the hos- pitals from $45 to $65 a pint. As a result, the least healthy members of U.S. society -- derelicts, winos, slum-dwellers and even drug addicts -- sell their blood because they need the 'wmoney and are given an incentive to lie about their medical history. In Canada. where Red Cross standards rigorously exclude potential donors suffering from such di- scases as tuberculosis, dia- older citizens are having birthdays next week. betes. epilepsy, cancer, heart and kidney disease, and permanently exclude people who have ever had hepatitis. jaundice or other liver disease, there's little likihood of a hospital patient receiving a transfusion of tainted blood. And Dr. Dam- iana Wrobel of the Red Cross blood transfusion ser- vice in Toronto says that people are scrupulously honest about their health * "history simply because they're giving a free gift. We Canadians must pre- serve our system of free blood, freely given and freely received. For once. it's something we have the U.S. wants to copy -- to the point that the U.S. govern- ment is considering legisla- tion. The way to assure that our system continues is for every qualified Canadian to make regular, routine de- posits in the blood banks. Then we need never fear the horror of hepatitis nor the need to pay exorbitant prices for the transfusions we need when we're ill or injured. bist along.

Proposed ward 4 Plan forwarded to Region by Ashok Chandwani A proposed official plan for Ward 4 of the township of Scugog (formerly the township of Cartwright) will be forwarded to the Region- al authorities for their comments. Council took this decision Monday in a committee of the whole meeting. The proposed official plan, which is a part of the original United Counties Plan. makes the following recommendations: Areas designated as semi- urban centres shall be de- veloped with all the services required for relatively self sufficient urban communi- ties with populations rang- ing up to 5.000 persons (council reduced this to a 1.000), except that endploy- ment in each centre may not fully match the working force. An imbalance be- tween residential and com- mercial - industrial assess- ment shall nevertheless not be permitted to reach such proportions that the finan- cial stability of the local muncipality would be threa- tened. The communities of Blackstock. Nestleton, Caesarea and Cadmus may or may nol. be permitted to grow to full town size de- pending on future determin- ation of the feasibility and desirability of providing sewage treatment plants. The rural areas designa- ted on the concept plan may include the following: Agriculutral uses, hamlets. estate residential areas, seasonal dwellings, recreational commercial uses such as golf courses, ski clubs etc., mineral resource areas, institutional areas. forests and conser- valion areas, transportation facilities, including an air- port. tourist or farm- oriented commercial uses and a limited number of industrial uses which are neither large scale water users or potential polluters. The general of principle of preserving good farm front in land for farms use shall be employed provided it does nol impose an unacceptable cconomic burden on the farmer. SPECIAL FEATURES OF THE PLAN ARE: A waterfront plan for the entire Lake Scugog waler- the Township of Scugog. This plan will pro- vide a program to ensure that adequate access to this major feature is not lost to the majority of the popula- tion as development pro- ceeds. Scenic routes shown on the concept plan shall be protected from develop- ment that would adversely affect their scenic proper- ties. They shall not be deve- loped primarily as traffic arteries. In drafting the plan the planners have recognized that existing trends are ex- Liberal Association hold meeting On March 14th, 1974, the Provincial Durham Liberal Association held one of their periodic executive and general meetings at Lie Memorial Park Club House in Bowmanville. Mr. Alan Beer. President of the Association, presided over a well attended gathering of Liberals. Items of interest dealt with by the meeting inclu- ded amongst other matters. the choosing of delegates for the Provincial Liberal Convention to be held in Sudbury. on the 26th, 27th and 28th day of April. 1974: Mr. William Bragg was chosen to the chairman of a selection committee for Durham provincial election candidates: the formation of a Liberal Council of Ontario for the purpose of organizing the next provin- cial election and the announcement that a Lib- eral workshop open to the public. would be held at Durham Community College in Oshawa on the 6th day of April. 1974. pected to continue. Trends such as: A continuing decrease in the population actively en- gaged in full time farming. A continuing decrease in the rural non-farm popula- tion. both permanent and seasonal. A steady growth of the , hamlets and a demand for suburban building lots. The basic ~ objectives of the plan are to maximise the potential of the land resources of Ward 4. to promote development that will minimise costs to public bodies, to protect features of Ward 4 which are likely to become a priceless assest as popula- tion increases and to focus on the position of the farmer and the respon- sibilities of the public. at large where policies for the preservation of rural land conflict with trends. The official plan is a very generalized document in- tended to be used as a framework. Further plan- ning for precise areas is expected "to be done by passing zoning by-laws. cl) WALL WASHING economic Painting and Decorating INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR ® Wallpapering ® RESIDENTIAL-INDUSTRIAL-COMMERCIAL ® Janitorial Service ® FLOOR STRIPPING AND WAXING WINDOW CLEANING ® Air Conditioning ® ELECTRONIC AIR CLEANING HUMIDIFICATION The need for an official plan arose when it was realized by Council that no official plan exists and the possiblity of the Region coming up with a suitable one in the future, is dim.
