FRED BOWDEN CENTRALIA At the Sunday morning service in the United Church Mr. Paul Schott referred to Jesus' entry into Jerusalem as one of the high points in His ministry. He came to the people at a time when they were happy and joyous and sought to instill in them a deeper faith and to show that God’s love is for all people. The children’s story was told by June Essery and the choir sang an anthem. In the evening at the combined service for the Centralia and Zion West congregations the Rev, Harley Moore administered the rite of baptism for Allison Jean Baynham, daughter of Mr. & Mrs. B’ob Baynham, London, Kurt William MacLeod Mills, son of Mr. & Mrs. Ray Mills, Steven Lindsay Hern, son of Mr. & Mrs. Lome Hern, Julie Anne Rollings, daughter of Mr. & Mrs. Harvey Rollings, Curtis Allen David and Christopher Stanley Robert Schott, sons of Mr. & Mrs. Paul Schott.

These accusations followed the resignation of the branch director, who said in his letter of resignation that the office of the Premier had interfered with his job, bringing pressure to bear to keep Opposition Members off guest lists. The Minister maintained that the official’s charges were “totally unfounded” and denied Opposition •demands for an inquiry into the allegations. Liberal Leader Stuart Smith said “a man of principle” appears to have resigned with very serious charges, and asked the Minister why the Premier’s office was involved in multiculturalism through an aide listed as being responsible for special assignments. The Minister said the Premier “chose to step up the work- of multiculturalism several months ago. An opposition member charged “You have as much commitment to multiculturalism as an alley cat has to morality”. The question of OHIP services continues to be debated. Opposition parties have continued to press the Minister of Health on how hospital medical services will be guaranteed at Ontario Health Insurance Plan rates. However, few details have been for­ thcoming. Last year, Liberal Leader Stuart Smith attempted on a number of occasions to make the Minister of Health fully aware of the danger to universal access to medical care posed by the rapidly increasing number of physicians who were opting out of OHIP. However, the Minister remained unconcerned about the problem until it became clear last month that the number of opted out doctors had reached a poirit where it was difficult, if not impossible in some com­ munities to obtain medical services at OHIP rates. In addition, certain specialist services such as anaesthesia, surgery and obstetrics were not available without surcharge because all the specialists at certain public hospitals had opted out. The Liberal Party remains absolutely committed to the Passenger injured in resort collision A Grand Bend woman sustained injuries in the only accident investigated this week by the Pinery OPP. The accident occurred on Thursday when a vehicle operated by Richard W. Moody, Grand Bend, was in collision with a utility pole resulting in approximately $2,100 damages. A passenger in the car, Catherine Anderson, received minor injuries and was taken to South Huron Hospital for treatment.. Constable R. M. Brown of the Forest detachment in­ vestigated. During the week, the Pinery officers laid eight charges under the Liquor Licence Act, two under the Highway Traffic Act and one under the Narcotic Control Act. Thre were three charges under the Criminal Code and one impaired driver was charged. idea that medical services must be available to the people of Ontario without any charge above what is paid by OHIP. To guarantee this, we advanced, and the government accepted, several recommendations. In order to keep general practitioners participating in OHIP and encourage those who have opted out to opt back in, we proposed that the government increase the rate of remuneration for services performed by general practitioners under the OHIP Schedule of Benefits. We urged that in areas whe^e all the doctors have opted out of OHIP, the government encourage the establishment of Health Services Organizations (publicly funded medical clinics) to provide service at OHIP rates. With reference to services provided in public hospitals, we stressed the urgent imporance of the government ensuring that such services are available at OHIP rates and that the patient is not subject to a means test administered by the physician. Of course, the safety of nuclear generating stations is very much in the news because of the crisis situation at Three Mile Island in Pennsylvania. Ontario has made a very heavy commitment to the nuclear industry in Canada, and the economic as well as energy implications of any debate regarding that in­ dustry are enormous. There would appear to be good reasons to believe that the Canadian nuclear system is vastly safer than other available alternatives. It is, therefore, essential that discussion be conducted in a rational manner without hysteria or panic. As Stuart Smith pointed out, it is essential' that a sideration of the safety of Ontario’s nuclear reactors take place immediately in the context of what has happened in Pennsylvania. We in the Liberal Party feel that any delay in the process of this public consideration will simply permit rumours and uninformed speculation to influence public opinion in this very important period of time. All sides in the nuclear safety argument must be given a proper opportunity to present their case and question each other. There are a number of ways in which this debate and the necessary public disclosure can occur. We would recommend that the Select Committee on Hydro Affairs be specifically charged with the immediate responsibility of in­ vestigating the matter of nuclear safety and be given permission to sit con­ currently with the Hosue so that it might begin im­ mediately. It is important that the debate occur in an at­ mosphere as non-political as possible and that the Committee be able to benefit from what is already done so that duplication can be avoided, mended Porter, Royal Electric Power Planning, be seconded as a special con­ sultant to the Committee for the duration of the hearings on the matter of nuclear safety. Dr. Porter could organize the work of the Committee and be of enormous assistance in the questioning of witnesses and the assessment of material presented. We have recommended that the Premier ask Dr. Porter if he would be willing to serve in this way, as soon as possible. In this way we can be certain that the con­ sideration of nuclear safety will be carried on in a responsible and informed manner, so that the public can be fully confident of the facts as they are made available.
