W� :ONTARIO, . _, WEDNESDAY; no. 15th, Ottawa; • February 10th,, 1961 Dea, Eilitpr and Folks;,' • • Just a; few ,comments; :on the situat'on.. as it appears ;here: at , your Hpuse .of 'Commons; in Ot- tawa. • The most interesting legisiatio., that; was brought ; do',wn this week 'was a resolution ,by the Minster of Veterans Affairs • This. resolution .reads; "That it.is expedient to 'bring in a. Measure. to amend the Pen- sion, Act to provide for increases to ' disabled veterans an4 theirpaymentependents; '.to , permit ' payment of supplementary • perisions in certain cases;, to permit': a,pteals. frosty •decisions of 17 -,the former board of pension' commissioners;` and to protide for .certain ' furth- er ch.at ges in connection with the , `:administration of tlie; ,act..." ,m I May state' that, the eprevious Minister of Veterans Affairs had n tended' ayear to ago 4 bribnut,g owinthis g, retosolSi in ver. al reasons, one of ,which: was the. thorough study that had to , go into such an. important; measure, it was, not possible to introduce this 'bill 'at- that time. The . standing Committee on Veterans Affairsis one of" the most. non-partisan committees, in the ,House of Commons. It is. comprised of veterans of either' the First of Second World Wars, so .you ' May rest assured that every 'consideration is given by the committee towards bringing in legislation that is in• '• their minds fit and 'proper; ' There'• is what is, known as a Pension 'Act and there is' also what is known as the War Vete:, rens 'Allowance Act. The Pension Act governs, pensions to veterans who have been disabled in any way, shape , or form in connec = tion with their • work in the ser- vice. The War Veterans Allow- • ance Act is a measure to provide for veterans who,. for some reas- .on ,or other, ' are not financially able, to get along properly:. We have. been assured . by the Mini- ster that the revision of the Warr Veterans Allowance' Act :Will be coming up in the very .;near fu- ture. I am sure that .an increase in the. War :Veterans Allowance Act is nearly .overdue. Looking •. towards the • interna- tional situation, I may say that t, is ,;very interesing .to know• that' Mr. Diefenbaker, our Prime Minister, has been invited to: visit' Mr. Kennedy, the President of the United, States. Mr. MacMillan; the Prime- Minister of ,Britain, I understand, 'is also going' to pay a visit to the States and also it is expected he will "visit Canada. ''There will' 'be a meeting of the Commonwealth prime'. mini- ste'rs' in ,Britain very : shortly... It is; hoped that ,there wi1:l be. much good come out ofthese different meetings that I. have 'mentioned., We hope that ways 'and means can be arrived ; at to relieve the tense. situation • that prevails in many different ..parts' of'. the world ' to; -day. • Before : I close ",'I • wish to say that after the very cold weather We . have had . this winter, :it is very pleasing to see .the • spring _Pike weather that we. have been. enjoying for'Tthe—iast`wweek• - Yours Sincerely, Andy' Robinson, Federal 'Member for Bruce: THE HUMP.
