But Mr; 'Newbold emphasized. he spoke .as: a private individual and not ' as an officer of the :association. "When the province takes over ficerising'of nursing homes under the act, about 25 per cent ,of them will be forced out of business," -Mr -Newbold=said "They won't. be able to meet Ut:Goverimest Man the standards.. This Means closing down about' 150 nursing homes, There's a desperate shortage of nursing home beds now, Think what• it will be like then., . ""Myself, and a number of others had"planned to build large facil- 'ities to fill this need for beds.

"I believe that the department of welfare has created.,' .over, the years, :a sort of,civil service empire. With introduction of the Nursing Homes Act, some of 'its. •,authority will be taken away'.
