There-is little doubt the US would buy Canada for $20 billion. They put out 15 million bucks for the Louisiana purchase way back in 1803 and $7,200,000 for that pig-in-a-poke called Alaska in 1867. . Things like separatism -- both the BC. and French Canadian types - the chicken-and-egg controversy, the selling of our natural resources - gas, water and electric power - the problems of poverty, pollution of the Great Lakes and the Arctic, the mishandling of the Indian and Eskimo -- all these and our many other woes and worries can be a thing of the past. We're offering riches to all. A good life forever. A Canadian Utopia. And it's all so simple. The plan, folk, is E.C.A.M. If you haven't heard, the initials stand for Every Canadian A Millionaire. A status we're sure few, if any, would turn their back on. Can you imagine having a million dollars . . .? . . . your neighbor having a million dollars . . .? . . . everyone on your block havingamillion dollars. . .'? . . .each and every Canadian having one million dollars to do with what ever one wanted to do if one had a million dollars? The mind boggles. But it's not impossible. Each and every Canadian can become a millionaire. We can all be wealthy beyond our wildest dreams when E.C.A.M. goes into effect. How? As we said, it's simple. We Canadians just have to sell this country to the United States of America for twenty billion dollars and distribute the proceeds equally amongst our twenty million population. Voila. Each and every former Canadian is now a millionaire. This week we offer a simple solution to all Canadian prpblems. _ . . A. _ - . Ptgr6--Ns Intake! Mt-tr-n-hr, up“. an iii. ix if..

It has become rather a common affair to turn out for some athletic practice in the field of sport. The baseball bat may be easily heard at some distance from the scene of operation. While practice of this kind is quite legitimate on six days of the week and very commendable, those who engage in these exercises as a pastime on Sunday afternoons should have at least some regard for the day of rest so wisely provided for us and set apart for our good as to refrain from engaging in these exercises, which make them amenable to the civil laws of our land. The people of our other- wise quiet town have no desire to be disturbed by any unseemly noises emanating from the sporting field on the afternoons of the day of rest. 20 Years Ago A recommendation that a subway be constructed at Lawrence Ave. level crossing was brought in by an inquest jury following the death of a motorist.

We are to love him simply because he is a human being, created in the image of God. As a human being God puts great value upon him despite the possibility that that man is in rebellion against God. In our task of portraying the love of Christ we Christians too often have been lust a dark negative instead of a clear shining picture. The world has turned away because the image is ugly, Let us, as Christians, avail ourselves of the power which God has put at our disposal in the person of His Son and allow Him to show through us His infinite tenderness to a lost and a dying world.

Several additional con- tracts are currently under negotiation with various industrial research laboratories, The committee assessing proposals for research contracts is composed of industry and federal government officials. It is under the chairmanship of Dr. Harry Schwartz, director of program co- ordination for the Canadian Forestry Service. The program was established in 1970 with a fund of $600,000 to encourage increased research into water pollution abatement from pulp mills. This amount was increased in 1971 to one million dollars a year for five years, contingent upon the pulp and paper industry increasing its private tum ding of such research by at least a million dollars over the amountspent in mo. The privately funded research in 1970 was estimated at $1.4 million and is expected to reach $3 million in 1914, oetotter.Wittitheminimtun MWdayanoticerequirmiby Iaw,thatmeansitcmtldbe called any time during the first three weeks of Sep has fixed voting for a Thursday now, so the magical dates are, perhaps, September 30, but more likely October 7, M, or 21. There are a number of pieces of major legislation which I would like to deal with in the next few weeks, but for the moment, an overview of the session, and particularly its final weeks, is most useful. By reason of the con- servative leadership con- vention, and the forming of the new government, this year's session didn't get underway until very late - March 30, to be exact. Taking into account the 10 day Easter recess, that meant the legislature was actually in session for no more than three and-a-half months - the shortest session in many a year. The other outstanding characteristic of its program was that very little govern- ment legislation was in- troduced until the final weeks when some 40 to 50 bills were deluged upon us. At that point not only was the legislature itself sitting, but often two of its standing committees were meeting simultaneously to consider departmental estimates. Often one was faced with trying to be in three places at the same time. To make matters worse, the government attempted to bring the legislature to a close as early as July 16, resorting to the usual procedure of the final week - adding morning to the usual afternoon and evening sittings. But that proved futile, so the following week,' the government used its majority to impose, in ad- dition, extended hours of sitting - which simply meant that the obligatory adjournment at 10.30 would not be observed. That opened up what turned out to be the most ludicrous situation I have experienced in my 16 years in the Ontario Legislature. The eleventh hour in. troduction of the government legislation was undoubtedly a calculated strategy - to dazzle the electorate with the public image of intensive activity. But it is simply impossible under the cir- cumstances to do justice to important bills under these conditions. In the weeks of July 19, we sat through till after mid- night, and then 3 a.m. and 3.30 a.m. But even that didn't clear off business. So last week were back for two days whose nights ran to 2 a.m. and 4.30 a.m. As one rather well-known government member from the Metro area commented to me privately: "No businessman would ever run his own business that way - or he'd have no eruployeesâ€. More likely, there be a law against it! But whatever the con- sequences, the government was determined to bring matters to a close. Now members are catching up on sleep and preparing for the election. That makes it possible to meet many more consistuents than normally is the case. I look forward to doing that. Canada's chartered banks have become the largest nom government source of funds for residential mortgages, says the Canadian Bankers' Association! The banks' outstanding mortgage loans amounted to $1,784 million on June M, up from 81,357 million at the beginning of 1971, and of 38,700 individual dwelling unit loans approved by all private institutional lenders in the first four months of the year, bank funds accounted for some 11,500. To April 30, 1971, the banks' mortgage lending increased 117.2 per cent over the first tour months of 1970, Comparable increase for all institutional lenders com- bined was “A per cent during the same period. For when? Best guess at Biggest Source of funds Abt As the term implies, chronic ironchitis is an inflammation of the ironchi ot.all sizes. This inflammation causes an ob- structive thickening of the wall of the air- way: and an increase in the amount of mucus normally produced. This change results in a narrowing of the airway so that the person with obstructive bronchitis has difficulty in getting air into his lungs, and even more difficulty moving air out of the lungs. At this stage he may have noticed difficulty in beaming, often with a wheezing noise being present particularly when blowing the air from the lungs. The cause of the inflammation in chronic bronchitis is not infection but an irritation factor in the bronchial tubes -- and it is hard to avoid the fact that the commonest irritant is inhaled tobacco smoke, Le. personal air pollution. In ad- dition there are the aggravating factors of actual viral and bacterial infections and environmental air pollution. Allergies may also contribute to the irritation process in the susceptible person. Cough is the most common symptom in chronic Ironchitis. It tends to occur more frequently in the morning and to last longer Although cough is the most common symptom, sputum is the most prominent objective evidence of pulmonary disease. Normally, glands in the walls of the bronchi secrete mucus that forms a thin film over the airways trapping foreign particles such as dust, bacteria, air pollutants and products of smoking. When the bronchi are irritated more protective mucus is formed and is often thicker. Its colour may change from clear to yellow or green and this does signify that infection has developed as a Chronic Bronettitig " I diagnostic term was first used in in.

Frequently the morning cough is described as a "cigarette cough" or a "hackers cough" and considered to be normal. Some people may even deny the presence of a cough or pass it off with a shrug and a comment such as “well doesn't everybody cough?". Speaking for one of the largest groups of dwellers, The Italian "would-be" buyer, let me tell you that ... he prefers tn live in bungalows, split level or two storey houses. The following is a reprint from a Thornhlll newspaper called "The 3 Echoes". This letter appeared In the section entitled “Crisis in the Homefront." Why Italians won't live in a high-rise This is a big question for the average Italian buyer who buys a house not only out of necessity, but to reach the "STATUS" for which he came to Canada. The average Italian buyer after a period, of, say, five years in the slums of Toronto or pearby, decides on one of two alternatives: Northwest Toronto or east. The majority however prefer the Northwest because "others do the same" "Cumpare" Tony bought his bungalow in North York, I havel to follow. Maybe this is a ridiculous attitude but if the reader thinks of the great dif- ferences between the human relations of the Latins and the English stock, he will find that the unorthodox way of thinking is more than justified. The Italian family stays together, to help each other, to keep the national relationship. The "Curm pare" is part of the family, the guy that used to live next door in the old country. This natural process that could be identified as a "commune" produces the paradox of housing developments bought almost entirely by Italian families. often from the same village, After the urban Chronic bronchitis Wbynr.(hnm-C.Gny humane-mum: WWW In the midst of the very alarming spread in vertical living, cage-condominiums, armored sky scraper cubicles that in some part of the world present a victory over the limitations of available land, it will be a good point if the little guy, "L'omino della strada" expresses his feelings, before the drama of misguided concepts develops into a tragedy, that could be coped with only the mechanical help of an army of bulldozers.

The excessive sticky mucus Recognition of chronic bronchitis depends on a carefully taken history revealing cough and sputum. After an or- dinary chest x-ray special lung function tests (using a spirometer) will help to establish the presence of obstruction to air flow, but this same problem is present in emphysema and in asthma during an at- tack. Chronic bronchitis should be prevented or checked by eliminating the major cause, inhaled smoke from cigarettes. Other forms of treatment are aimed at opening up the airways by eliminating secretions (mucus), arntrolling infection and training patients to heathe and cough properly so as to minimize breathing difficulty and break- down of lung tissue cells (emig1ysema). Swrtness of breath may also be a symptom ot chronic tronehitis but only at an advanced stage. Breathlessness is more common in emphysema. It is a sad commentary that about 30 per cent of all cases of chronic bronchitis are diagnosed only when the person becomes sick enough to enter hospital, and that means that the patient probably has serious and permanent disability. m the past ten (10) years the death rate from chronic bronchitis has increased fourfold. To put it another way, in the past fifteen (15) years the number of deaths attributed to chronic bronchitis has almost doubled every five (5) years. The problem of the person with chronic lronchitis needs much more attention with respect to the cause of his disease, its prevention. early detection, treatment and rehabilitation. It is an increasing problem; and in addition to the effects of chronic bronchitis on the individual's health, one must also consider the socioeconomic ef- fects on the community as a whole. control of indoor air to breathe, the not-so-handy elevators, the danger to see our son fly down from the 22nd floor, the garage of parking space always oc- cupied by somebody else, the unhealthy incinerator. This highrise living imposes associations of children to the luring saunas, open doors for mischievousness and sexual abnormalities. The high rates offer little comfort from the open invitation to airlines and their infernal machines passing close to our balconies. Ma che? Scherziamo'? No, we are not joking. These are realities too well known and common among high rise apartment dwellers. In a country like Canada, in a progressive city like Toronto, such a series of legalized crimes against the population, are a shame for those politicians that permit such incredible impositions to the patient citizen who "in absentia" of a better way of life, are forced to rent a cubicle on the 17th floor of a modern Tower of Babel. The little Italian guy wants to live "horizontally". He wants to plant his tomatoes in his backyard. . .He wants to fence his land and keep his little ones alive. He wants to choose his neighbours and this is the freedom is is prepared to pay for. . There is a general trend to go north, northwest. There is a lot of land around Toronto. if that land is used for vertical living then the Italians will bypass Toronto. A garden on the Mth floor is unthinkable; tomatoes do not grow in the wind.
