Repods GODERIGH,Effective control of pollution is lacking in Can- ada, this country's approach to the problem having been splin- tered by the terms of the Bri* tish. North American Act, Dr. R.M. Aldis told Huron County Council in presenting the report of the county health unit on Monday. "As the tourist season begins to burst upon this county," he Grace Mathers To Entertain Guest from Wales Again this year the Junior Farmers' Association of Ontario and the Ontario Department of Agriculture are acting as joint hosts to delegations of Young Farmers from Northern Ireland, Scotland and England.

" We do know that right now the rivers are carrying pollution into Lake Huron; in turn many ditches and streams help to spoil these rivers, The respons- ibility for controlling pollution is local and/or provincial, with varied enforcement in each municipality and province. Ef- fective control rests upon na- tional enlightenment. Let us hope that the Royal Commission on Taxation will corse up with recommendations which will include a more effective formur la for underwriting pollution control costs in our country." Dr. Aldis cited large sums being spent in the U.S. for in- stallation of control units, and for Great Lakes studies, while the total Canadian effort amounted to about $250, 000, The M.O. H. demonstrated for council the operation of an audiometer, used to ascertain if students' hearing is defec- tive.

Rabies incidence is down in the county. Dr. Aldis reported only seven cases, including a deer, a fox and a skunk. " We are very happy about the situation this year," he said. CANADA'S NEW LABOUR CODE/Hon. Allan MacEachen, Minister of Labour, answers some questions: "Our new Canada Labour Code has been called a•'first,' Mr. MacEachen. Would you agree?" "Briefly, who does this new Code apply to?" "Let's get down to specifics. What, exactly, does it promise to those employees who are affected by it?" "You said the new Code applies to industries under Federal jurisdiction. Would you name them?" "Yes, and it is one of the most all -embracing. Canada has a right to be proud of it. It sets higher standards than have been set for any other country I know. Other countries are taking note of the way Canadian Parliament is ensuring that more workers share in this country's growth." "It applies to industries which fall under Federal jurisdiction— and may well prove to be a guide for other industries. The Government itself, which is a large employer in its own right, will take the lead by applying the Code's standards to its own federal employees." "As we said, it sets minimum standards—and I strecs that these are minimum, because, of course, a lot of workers already enjoy higher standards than the Code sets. First, it sets a standard 8 hour day and a 40 hour week, with overtime limited to 8 hours a week, and paid for at time -and -a -half. Second, it sets the minimum wage rate for all men and women over 17 years of age at $1.25 an hour. Next, it provides for two weeks annual vacation with pay, after one year's service; or 4% of wages as vacation pay for those with from 30 days to a year's service. Finally, it stipulates that each employee shall get eight statutory holidays with pay a year— or get a full day off in lieu of the holiday." "The Code covers interprovincial or international rail and highway transport, primary fishing where the fishermen work for wages, air transport, radio and TV, shipping, banks, uranium mining, grain elevators, flour and feed mills and warehousing, seed cleaning mills, interprovincial or international pipelines and ferries, interprovincial or international telegraphs and telephones, most Crown corporations and one or two other smaller industries." If you are not sure whether you are covered by the Canada Labour (Standards) Code, write to Department of Labour, Ottawa.
