THE INDIAN AND THE CITY Many of Canada‘s Indians, when they gravâ€" itate to cities like Toronto, head for the slums â€" sometimes because of a poor education or lack of ambition, but more often because most of us are unwilling to accept them as equals. Three highâ€" ly educated Canadians of North American anâ€" cestry are holding a panel discussion at the Pine Point Community Centre at 10:30 a.m., Sun,, Oct. 17 titled: Understanding Our First Canadiâ€" ans. Howard Staats an Osgoode law student, Basil Johnston a high school, history teacher and Peter Oliphant a chartered accountant, will look at the problems of an Indian moving from the reservation to urban society.

There are also many other youngsters who know you will also provide coins for their UNICEF (United Nations Children‘s Fund) Hallowe‘en collection boxes. The money is used to feed, cloth, educate and house less fortunate children in other parts of the world. 4 & Despite all the cars that jam almost every street in Metro (including Weston Rd. during rush hours, there are still millions who use the the TTC‘s buses, streetcars and subways. Paid fares will hit 280 million this year â€" up 12 million from 1961. With this kind of record, it‘s a pity the authorities don‘t reserve some streets for exâ€" clusive TTC use, instead of forcing TTC drivers to compete with the private automobile for rushâ€" hour road space. . At the present rate of increase, the populaâ€" tion of North York by 1971 will hit the half milâ€" lion mark. Since 1956 it has â€"more than doubled to 361,000.

In Canada, great metropolitan areas have emerged. Growth has been swift and problems and pressures are sharp. City areas have spilled over into suburbs. "Sound development of Canada requires equal opportunity for evâ€" ery part of our land. What were regarded as local problems a generation ago are now of natâ€" ional concern," declared Yorkâ€" Humber Conservative candidate, Vic Colebourn. British statistics proved his point.

In reply to a question from the board regarding referrals and how long a pupil would have to wait before he was seen, senâ€" ior psychologist Nancy Elgie exâ€" plained that the deadline for reâ€" ferrals for the school year was March 5.

The figures for Scotland, according to the brief were three times as bad.

Mr. Stanger suggested when the facts are bared and the Downsview Rotary bail proposals become widely known, the presâ€" ent bail system will then be radically changed and brought up to date. + A â€" Progressive â€" Conservative government, will accelerate the program of urban renewal and replacement in coâ€"operation with the provinces and the municipalâ€" ities and assistance in research on city planning on a national scale. he said. It will provide through the Natâ€" ional Housing Act for mortgages on older homes, Colebourn added, to assist the mobility of our proâ€" ductive population. It will furâ€" ther provide through the National Housing Act for the writing up of existing partly paid up NHA mortgages to assist in the sale of older homes and to increase the ease of population shifts. According ,to a questionâ€" naire _ circulated â€" in _ York Centre by chief Government whip James Walker, 88 perâ€" cent of his conmstituents are aware of the ‘extent‘ of forâ€" eign ownership of Canadian industries and resources, 62 per cent think steps should be taken to reverse this trend, but only 40 per cent is willing to "accept a tempâ€" orary lower living standard" to accomplish this aim. How can foreign ownerâ€" ship of industries in Canada be dropped and at the same time the high standard of livâ€" ing be maintained? Mr. Walker‘s poll was sent out to 65,985 homes and to date more than 2300 have been returned and tabulated. His ;eampaign director said Walker‘s Poll Proves Can‘t Please Everyone UOS ing . .

The Grits realized in 1962 and 1963 that the focal point of any campaign in Yorkâ€"Humber is the short distâ€" ance on Bloor Street between Jane Street and the Humber River. The traffic count on this stretch of roadway, with South Kingsway feeding cars in from the south, and Jane Street delivâ€" ering an uncountable number of people from the north, makes it mandatory that a committee room with accompanying advertâ€" ising, be maintained at this crossâ€" roads of the riding. Cowan‘s supporters tried for ten days to rent some store propâ€" erty on Bloor Street but, as the member says "prosperity is so universal in Canada right now, we couldn‘t find a store that was vacant or coming vacant soon." The Liberals therefore rented a 38 foot long trailer for the Swanâ€" seaâ€"Etobicoke‘ office and have placed it on property at 2486 Bloor Street West where a hundâ€" red thousand cars a day are able to read their advertising. Despite Clouston Objections it was held up were the objectâ€" | ions of Clouston Avenue residents. | Clouston Avenue West residents who are surrounded by commercâ€" | ial and industrial buildings, opâ€" pose a move to zone the area "redevelopment", . and bitterlyf complained about a car dealer | who purchased several homes on , their street and then used the | property for car storage.

The $6,000 contract was strongâ€" Iy opposed by Councilior Lloyd Sainsbury who stated at council the funds should be used to purâ€" chase more business parking space near Weston Road. He said the present six by six foot hut at the entrance of the John Street lot was large enough for the parking lot attendents. C At the next meeting, council expects to receive a report on the parking needs of Weston. In Mimico, the Grits have ‘hundreds‘ of the returns inâ€" cluded letters and commenis with â€" qualified â€" explanations and answers. The questionnaire, which Walker says will assist him in caucus (if the Liberal party is elected) in represenâ€" ting the views of his constitâ€" wents. indicates that almost every one in York Centre beâ€" lieves that legalized governâ€" ment sweepstakes is the most painless way to build more hospitals and schools. Eightyâ€" three percent supported govâ€" ernment sweepstakes and onâ€" ly 14 per cent opposed. On the question of automaâ€" tion only 22 per cent felt that it endangers their jobs, while 56 per cent felt the three levels of government have not yet come to grips ’secured the same offices as they rented in the last two campaigns. | The building has been marked‘ i for demolition because of road | widening plans in Mimico but its removal has now been delayed! until after the election.

Finance Committee idents apparently don‘t know what kind of zoning they want, and will therefore recommend to council that Clouston West be rezoned â€" "commercial." There are seven areas in town council would like to see zoned "redevelâ€" opment", most of them near the Humber River. Refuses Builder‘s Zoning Request A Weston construction company was told by the town finance committee Tuesday that council cannot change the zoning bylaw so that he can build a small comâ€" mercial project that falls short of the number of parking spaces required. H. S. Levine asked the commitâ€" tee to loosen the bylaw, warning if he was refused he would be stuck with a useless piece of property. His lot is on the west side of Weston Road, opposite Church Street. Several committee‘ members told Levine that he knew the zoning restrictions when he purâ€" chased, and could not expect council to "bail him out", partâ€" icularly when there is a serious parking shortage in the area. The finance committee did agree however. to consider buyâ€" ing the property as an entrance to Weston‘s Centennial Park beâ€" side the Humber River. with the problem York Céntre voters are alâ€" so in favor of more immigraâ€" tion. but only in moderate amounts.
