" lil) One other item enabling him to relinguish the leadership with a maximum of ease is the fact that he is in great demand province-wide to aid in campaigns of other NDP candidates. His schedule reads a lot like what I would imagine Stephen Lewis; Bill Davis; or Robert Nixon's would. Take this week for instance: Monday is spent home in York South, Tuesday in Middlesex North (London), Wednesday in Brantford and Paris, Thursday back to the home constituency, Friday off to Grand Valley and Saturday back to London, MacDonald calls them "mini-tours" but they in- volve a lot of Criss-crossing throughout Ontario. He has found the transition from leader to local can- didate an easy one. One reason for this is he never found any serious conflict between representing York South and the people of Ontario. "The basic issues relate across the board," he ex- plained. "Canadian Gypsum Company is a pollution problem in York, but it is also a local manifestation of a general problem." It was last spring when Donald C, MacDonald retired as leader of the New Democratic Party and heralded M-year-old Stephen Lewis as new leader of the party he had helped build. "I've got more time to be in my own riding now," he said in an interview Monday at his Eglinton Avenue West campaign headquarters, "I've spent the first two weeks of the campaign in York South. This was unheard of when I was leader." It is actually the fifth campaign for the 17-year political veteran, but it's the first time Donald MacDonald will not be running as leader of the New Democratic Party. And he is discovering that he is enjoying his first ex- perience as strictly a local candidate. DONALD c. MacDONA LD by Cathy Dull!” This provincial election is a first for York South's New Democratic candidate Donald C. MacDonald. First time election The top issue of this campaign for York South constituents, Mr. Mac. Donald contends is unem- ployment. The NDP ad- vocate a "make home" Mr. MacDonald believes community involvement is necessary to make this project work because modern psychiatric therapy calls tor rehabilitation within the home and com. munity as well as in the hospital. Northwestern has no psychiatric facilities at all. The government says there should be a psychiatric unit per 30,000 population, but here we have over 400,000 people in North West Metro without adequate facilities." Donald C. MacDonald "The labour force is not capable of producing jobs in the traditional sense for the youth," he stated, "We have to develop a greater range of jobs in people services, in careers such as teaching The youth of the province have also been hard hit by unemployment. Mr. Mac- Donald contends that the unemployment figure for 16- 24 year olds at 10 to 12 per cent is double the entire population average. "To double the housing program would be the biggest single catalyst to the economy and to the unem- ployment rolls," he declared. program with 150,000 homes its aim. These issues plus the growing awareness of American industrial domination, are the problems worrying York South residents, Mr. Mac- Donald said. "There are also concerns affecting the entire pr?vince,r' he explained. A good enough reason why being a York South New Democratic candidate isn't that different from being NDP leader in election time. Another NDP stance Mr. MacDonald gives strong support to is a reassessment of taxes to ease the burden of property owners. "The NDP has pledged 80 per cent financial support of education systems," he said, "we could easily finance this if we taxed through income tax rather than property tax." He said the Ontario Milk Market Board authorized an increase to farmers amounting to about lac per quart. The dairies, however, correspondingly upped their price on a quart of milk 4c during the past year. Mr. MacDonald says that if the government established a Prices Review Board to examine any price increase and if necessary call a company forward to present evidence supporting the increase, consumer costs could be kept down. "There is a growing feeling that it there are wage restraints then we must also have a check on un- warranted price increases. Often profit increases are disguised as wage in, creases," Mr. MacDonald emphasized. in York South is the rising cogt of living, the candidate child care. This way we appeal tokids'ideariam--an attitude we must en- courage." Nexi to unemployment, the greatest area of concern In the past 25 years UNICEF has accomplished a great deal. From the many hundreds of achievements a few highlights are: Nearly 400 million children vaccinated against tuberculosis. 415,000 children cured of leprosy. 425 million children examined for yaws and 23 million treated. 71 million children examined for trachoma (an eye Nevertheless there are signs that a start has been made in attacking these ancient ills, and UNICEF which has developed from an agency created for emergency relief to its present long term development and humanitarian role possibly best typifies this vital change in attitude. . The steady growth in the sales of Canada Savings Bonds may not seem an event in the same class as the conquest of Everest. However, it is a story of new heights attained each year since the inception of Canada Savings Bonds in 1946. Onward and upward sym- bolizes the 26-year history of Canada's most popular in- vestment. We all know that the world can conquer these problems with its newly-found technology and ample resources, but we do not yet know that we have the will to do so or the awareness of what will inevitably happen if we do not. In December 1971 UNICEF celebrates its 25th anniversary. But in recalling the events of the past quarter century any Sense of pride in its accomplishments is mixed ‘with concern for the nearly 'one billion children still living under appalling conditions of poverty, disease, hunger and ignorance in the developing countries. UNICEF - 25 years old but it's only beginning Bond sales up With such backing and such goals, no wonder the sales of Canada Savings Bonds have been reaching new heights each year. Canada has been one of the principal supporters of UNICEF since its earliest days and strong support is given to the UNICEF fund- raising programs at The need, however, is still there and it is still growing. The number of children in the developing countries will double by A.D. 2000 and the major increase in population will come in countries least able to support them. UNICEF's main task in the next few years is to double its income to meet pressing disease) and 43 million treated. UNICEF 's main role is to act as catalyst to enable countries to learn to help themselves. Education, therefore. has become a major priority. Some achievements in education are: Nearly 600 training institutions for nutrition personnel have been helped. These are just some of the ways that UNICEF has been helping countries help themselves over the past 25 years. 965 vocational training schools have been equipped and 31 training institutions for in- structors. 2,500 teacher training schools and 56,000 associated primary and secondary schools have received UNICEF equipment.

Canadian children started collecting for Hallowe'en in 1952 but the first major campaign really began three years later in 1966 and raised $15,000. By 1970 this amount had reached the startling total of $900,000 every year, all collected in small coins by young children at Hallowe'en or through teenagers programs which they arrange themselves. Please support the 1971 Hallowe'en for UNICEF campaign even more generously than ever. Please have plenty of small coins on hand to welcome our youngest UNICEF sup- porters.
