He is only five months old but already sits up with a minimum of support. Young as he is, George is a really active boy. lie loves to be played with and enjoys being bounced, or bouncing himself in his jumper. He rolls from side to side and is trying hard to roll over. He reaches out for things and greets attention with smiles and gurgles. George is on a good routine — eats solids well from a spoon and sleeps soundly all night. He is a short, stocky fellow with brown eyes fringed by long lashes, dark wavy hair and olive skin. This bonny boy needs parents who will not be concerned that little is known of his father.

Huron ready in June', A date' has been set for the COMPletinn Of regional government Plans for the Midwestern Ontario region. The date due for this region is Julie 30, 1970, Provincial Treasurer Charles MacNaughton told a gathering that ended .an all-day conference of, the Midwestern Ontario Regional Development Council in Stratford last week, / Mr, 'MacNaughton said that 'the plans will be submitted to IViODA councils to convene sessions like last week's for critical assessment by People who live in the region. They will also be reviewed by the department for„,specific program analysis. "These final comments will be assimilated into the revisions that will go to the cabinet, committee on policy development and ultimately to the cabinet itself for approval," he said. "I submit," Mr. MacNaughton said, "that this schedule reflects our commitment toward a responsible program of provincial planning." The Midwestern Ontario region includes Perth, Huron, Waterloo and Wellington counties, The Ontario government also is considering a reconstitution of the regional development councils to encourage the participation of all local governments and their agencies, including the planning boards in each region. Mr. MacNaughton, speaking to more than 150 persons, said that in this way each local government not only would have a voice in the affairs of the council but also would use that voice to ensure that the council is a truly representative body in advising on the shape and content of the regional development plans. Mr. MacNaughton said that regional development councils will continue to assist the province in planning for their individual regions on an advisory basis. "I anticipate that you will be requested to carry out regional studies of a specific nature from time 04! time, and to react, to I var4.1440v4nmerit niian'Oga of a regional nature when they are being. considered."

Mr. MacNaughton said that regional units of government must play a strong role in regional planning. Their Participation must relate to the communities around them, since no unit can live in isolation, he said. Mr. MacNaughton spoke further on regional government and regional government PrOgrarn, He said that the government is encouraging two kinds of planning in the province. • "One is for local needs, carried out by individual communities and regional governments under the planning act. The other is provincial planning, undertaken by Queen's Park in partnership with regional The whys and wherefores of regional government were discussed at the opening sessions of the Midwestern Ontario Regional Development Council autumn conference in Stratford last week. More than 150 representatives from the four member counties of Perth, Wellington, Huron, and Waterloo and planners and government officials were in attendance to hear the points of view on regional government. D. M. Coolican; chairman of the regional municipality of Ottawa-Carleton, said that the need for planning on an area basis was one of the reasons for going into regional government. He said that urban areas are growing very fast and are spilling over their established boundaries. These areas outside the boundaries were not serviced with the essential services and friction between cities and urban areas developed. Annexation, it was• found, did not work, since bitter feeling was felt on both sides. Something better was needed, and regional government seemed to be the answer. At present :there are three .•% regional governments hi the, province, Ottawa-Carleton, Toronto and the newly-formed town of Lincoln. Ottawa-Carleton, Mr. Coolican explained, is made up of the city of Ottawa, Carleton County, and all other municipalities a close in this, It coverssome 1,150 square miles, in which 425,000 people live. Representing the new town of Lincoln, mayor-elect D. J. Bucknall said that most people don't know about 'regional government yet. "It is possible to talk to all the people," he said, "but not all the people become informed." He added that one of the important selling points for regional government was to have an overall body with sufficient resources in land and finance to properly deal with this ever increasing problem. "Government, regional or othervyise, is about people. They may expect too much too quickly, mistakes will be made, but we must take the attitude that if we can make a wrong decision today, we will make a better one tomorrow, he said.

"Our regional development program, in short, can provide the key to quality control over unprecedented prosperity far this provinee over the next decade.

I hope that our partnership approach will help us to provide an enlightened climate for sharing the development and preserving the character of Ontario." for the restructuring of municipal governments to meet the changing conditions of our times," he said. "The established government in, rapidly urbanizing areas is an attempt to give municipal government the muscle to cope with the problems of growing population and expanding needs for services of all kinds. "Regional development councils with representation from a large economic area have a duty to advise the government in all of these changes, co-ordinate the efforts of the various departments of government and help structure an overall plan for the total development of the entire province," Brian Donaldson, senior research officer of the municipal research branch of the department of municipal affairs, said there is a role of local governments in the new system in providing a symbolic link to the democratic processes of the province and the country. It is also a watchdog for local community interests and will serve as an administrative unit. One of the main reasons for regional government from the provincial standpoint, he said, was to eliminate many of the boards who were making separate decisions and duplicating programs. It was also to bring the counties and urban areas back together and restore faith in loca government. Food hints.
