Report from Queen's Park The legislature reconvened on Tuesday, April 14th with the estimates of the Dept. of Pub- lic Welfare and the Dept. of Tourism and Information. The Minister of Tourism and Infor- mation, Mr. Ault, stated that there are more people, with more money and more time, de- manding more facilities which has led to a crisis in recreation and travel. At the present time the tour- ist industry means 1.4 billion dollars to the Province ofOn- ta rio. On Thursday of last week the Police Commissions report on crime in Ontario was discussed.

This bill was de- signed to curb the criminal el- ement in our society which I am sure every responsible citi- zen in the province would want to do but, unfortunately, the bill went too far in its applica- tion and the offensive section 14 had to be withdrawn because it could affect the basic rights 4 of all citizens of the province, not only those of the criminal element. As was pointed out in the debate we can come up with a satisfactory solution by co-ordinating and more strictly enforcing the powers that the police already posses', in deal- ing with criminals. e:o-ordina- tion between the R. c;,,M, P, , the O. P.P. and the F. 13, I, in the U.S.A. is a prerequisite to con- trolling crime in Ontario. If these things fail to control crime in the province then more drastic measures will have to be taken.

Some of us were there last year and were very much impressed with the Georgian Gentlemen,(Owen Sound Chorus) under the ca- pable direction of Harry McC- arthy. Try to attend as it will be a good show. During smoke break, Pres. George Cousins and Hap Swat - ridge very quietly handled the business for "Chartering" . When the smoke had cleared, 28 men had signified their wish to join the parent organization, and these will be joined by several others who were not present. We will soon be members of the world's largest male singing group which boasts a member- ship of over 30, 000 singers, and is growing steadily.

It is always a pleasure to listen to an organi- zed foursome that has a few songs that are new to us, and they are always a big help to the chorus during practice. Harry McCarthy closed the meeting by directing the sing- ing of our theme, "Keep Am- erica Singing". We are sure everyone was surprised and de- lighted to see some of the "game" and the overtime when they got home. The executive was held back for a short meet- ing and missed out on the ho- ckey. Too bad. Quite a few of the boys were at the Stratford parade last week and some of same are going to the conven- tion in Toronto, week -end May 9. That will be a real "do". Sing you next week.
