For Mr. Clow‘s information, the desperate housing situation here in Metro is at least twice as bad as the current sit- uation reported on television. radio and in the newspapers. For another, the ORC statistics are practically meaningless since most people know that it would be useless to apply for public housing because For another, there are probably half a million residents here living in slums and basements and other forms of inadequate accommodation. For one thing, possibly one million of Metro's two million population are paying rents and mortgage payments in excess to the sum that they can " ford and comfortably manure. Emerson Clow, chairman of the On- tario Housing Corporation gets the Marie Antoinette award for suggest- ing last week that the Metro housing crisis cnn't be all that bad. A survey. he revealed, shown that only one half of 1:200 frmiliets on an OHC waiting list still intorestcd in moving into Marie Antoinette" famous dictum: "Irthey are hungry, let them eat cake" has finally been done one bet- ter. oirc low rental housing.

Weston, Ontario CH 4-5547-8-9 III-01mm Vol-l Guaranteed MUSIC Figures do-not reveal the number of police that have to be hired to protect the community from criminals who got their Mart in back alley ghettos. Who knows the number of family breakdowns that occur due to ter- rible living conditions; the number of social welfare workers that have to be hired'because the will of the father has been broken due to regular rent increases that eat into wages needed for food and clothing? How many, psychologists. psych- iatrists, psychometricians. s p e e c h therapists, counsellors and others in this field have to be retained by school boards to correct pupil mental disorders that stemmed from rotten environments? Yes Virginia; even though Metro is the richest city in Canada there is a housing crisis. Beyond a doubt the Marie Antoinette award tor 1968 should go to those people working for the Ontario Housing Corporation who fail to see just how serious this crisis is. But even these figures fail to tell the true story of human want and tragedy in Metropolitan Toronto. Who knows how many babies are fed tranquilizers to keep them quiet so that the family won't be kicked out of an overcrowded tenement because of too much noise? OHC just cope with the demand To sell pop in bottles that are dan- gerous before as well as after use, lshould be made a criminal offence. The big supermarkets like Lob- laws should refuse to sell soft drinks in these terribly dangerous andmostly bottles. If they have no conscience. however, and force unwanted and useless glass on their customers. the government should outlaw them in Ontario. The eyesight of one small child is worth more than the whole throw-away glass industry. A third obnoxious feature about these 'No Deposit - No Return' con- tainers is that they add much to all the glass that goes into the garbage can, which in turn costs the munici- pnlity a fortune to process. use of these cheap throw-aways is the fact that's all they are - throw- :wmys. Bottles that require I 2 cent or 5 cent deposit Ire returned to the store and therefore are much less likely to be shattered on a beach, a rock or 1 field where some unsuspect- ing person might come along in bare feet and got a musty gash requiring 10 stitches. on up.
