The increase is 50% over the former 3% paid by the province. All deposits are guaranteed by the government of Ontario..The new rate will be applied ,to savings on deposit sipce May 1, when, banks raised their rates followirig amendments to the federal bank act. L The 4% % interest will be paid on all savings on deposit and will be calculated on the minimum monthly balance. Cus­ tomers will continue to receive full chequing privileges.’ - The provincial-savings offices have about 70,000 ' depositors whose savings amount to ap­ proximately $81 millipn. The bulk of this amount .is trans­ ferred tq the province’s con­ solidated revenue fund and forms part of the government’s borrowings.

Not all swimming this .sum­ mer will be done at a super­ vised pool or beach. In fact, more and m°re water sport every year is enjoyed in waters which are unknown — thanks to the popularity, of the motor boat which wisks people away from the comparable safety of the shoreline into the deeper, deadlier waters. „ ’ Boating is fun. We enjoy it. But let’s ihake Very certain to observe the-rules — don’t over­ load the boat; don’t forget life­ jackets for dll; do have the cor­ rect motor for the size of the boat. Oh, yes, one more. A drunken driver is a public menace whether he is behind the wheel of a car or the wheel of a boat, * * * , FROM TIME to time we hear from Robert F. Nixoh, Ontario Liberal Leader. Here’s What he had to say this week: "After approving a budget of $2.2 billion arid passing’ more than 140 bills, the Ontario Leg­ islature has prorogued its 1967 session. "Oh the Whole, the ’ five months of sittings were pretty dull. There were few high points that would mark it in history as one of the outstanding ses­ sions of the past 24 years of Conservative government rule. In fact, it wili probubiy only be remembered fof its failure to grapple with the most import­ ant provincial issue of the day —the relief Of the municipal tax burden. ' . "There were some Very Worthwhile pieces of legislation notably, major amendments to the Mental Health Act and a Strengthening of the Air Pol­ lution Control Act, but there vvas ho effective legislation to provide provineiai relief to municipal taxpayers Who face substantial increases in mill fates right across the province. We’ve maintained that, Iff Spite of the fact that the Smith Re­ port on Taxation will not be made public for several weeks, the, major-policy decision should have been taken during this session to have the province as­ sume more of the costs' of edu­ cation -ri and eventually eighty percent of .those costs within four years. "The Smith Report, no doubt, will. be one of the most import­ ant documents prepared for the government in many years. It will be the forerunner of des­ perately-needed reforms in our system of taxation. But it has been used for too long as an excuse for inaction in the face, of unrelenting increases in the costs of' education at the local level. “The session also failed to ZT"". 1 ".....................................

Games were 'played in the Orbit Room on the base with dinner between sessions served at the OR Mess. A two-session open pairs game was<played with combined total point winners as follows: Mrs. M. Harper and Mrs.. Mary Broadbent, St. Thomas, 325 %; D. M. Burke of London and D. J. Curran of Toronto, 313 %; J. Jeffery of Scarborough and J. Barker of London, 303 %; Mrs. M. C. Rivait and Mrs. G. Wesenger, London, 298.' ’ . The local • tournament was held in place, of the annual two-day event .which ha? been taking place in Goderich for* over 30 years but was given up . this year because of a drop ill attendance. Mrs. Ivan Pap­ ernick, president of the club, expressed pleasure at the ap­ parent success of the new ven­ ture, with much credit accorded to base personnel, and an­ nounced tentative plans for a similar eVent to be held in the fall. " ' ' produce any programs which would economize or streamline government operations to make such local tax relief possible/ and,, despite a spate of an­ nouncements, a few months' ago, it saw- little . legislation to deal effectively withs the current housing crisis in our cities across the province. "There was nothing either in the legislation or in thd budget to excite the people of Ontario as we enter our second century of Confederation. There was nothing to promise us "that we would be living in an exciting, vibrant province in the years ahead. “One note of tribute to Farqu­ har Oliver, the 63-year old Dean of the Legislature who has de­ cided not to\run for office again in the election expected in the fall. During his nearly forty- one years as a member, Farqu­ har Oliver (he was leader of the Liberal Party on three sep­ arate occasions) > contributed much to the progress of this province. His departing words — "I did what I could with the capacity I had” — demon­ strates the modesty of this great parliamentarian. All of us in Ontario owe him much.0 1 ........................■"■mm ■■■■■■—.i'i.
