ROOM FOR COMPLAINT
Many of the residents of the
Hillcrest section of the town, are
seriously concerned about- the pro-
posed selling prices of the' homes
they occupy in the Central Mortgage
and Housing , development: At • a
meeting in' the council• chamber on
Tuesday evening oflast ,Week offic-
ials of the Corporation :announced
that homes in Hillcrest will be offer-
ed at prices ranging from $6,100 to
$6,900. Opinion expressed by the
tenants was that the prices are away
too high, and we are inclined "to
agree.
Constructed ten years ago; these
homes did provide a much-appreciat-
ed accommodation for the many
veterans and their families who
could not find housing elsewhere in
the town. However, the houses were
not •expensively constructed in the
first place. None were plastered,
the walls being faced only with
plaster board ; no eave troughs were
installed, with the result that many
of the basements were wet from the
',very beginning; : Needed repairs for
the homes have invariably been slow
—in• fact residents at the meeting
pointed out instances where it took
nionths and even' years to have steps,
storm doors and the like replaced
when needed.
A large majority of the families
have looked after their own redeCOr-
ating rather, than wait for action
from the Corporation. ,Most of the
homes have been *proved substan-
tially by the :tenants at„ their own
expense. :
Although we do not have the at-
tual figures it is doixbtful that the
best of the Hillprest hoittes,cost even
$5,000 :to erect—or if, ,t1mr, did the
Crown Corporation was a very poor
buying agency. Again, the best of
the homes (three bedroom units)
have rented for $39.50 for the past
ten years, bringing a revenue of
$4,740.00 to the Corporation, which
now asks the sum of $6,900.00 for
the same hoMe.
It is true that the CMHC has
borne the cost of maintaining the
homes during that time, but as we
have already pointed out, they have
kept those costs to a bare minimum,
a large share of the burden being
assumed by the tenants. In addition,
the Corporation never at any time
paid 'the same rate of taxes for their
property as did the rest of the home
owners in Wingham. In fact the
taxation agreement which was
:worked out with the town was so
generous that the rest of the taxpay-
ers were simply subsidizing CMHC
throughout the ten years.
A study of the prices which have
been realized for other and much
more substantial homes in Wing-
ham, even within the past year
would indicate that the OccUpant8 of
the Hillcrest homes are justified in
their protests, Another important

'RESPONSIBLE. LABOUR
Dr. Sylvester Perto, now a law
professor at New York University,
used to work in a steel mill
near Chicago. Afterwards he helped
organize a union at Republic Steel.
In 1939 he began working his way
through the University of Chicago,
where he was awarded a doctor's de-
gree. From 1946 to 1949 Dr. Petro
edited "Labour Law Reports”, spon-
sbred by the Commerce Clearing
IrOnse.'' His first book was "The
Labour Policy of the Free Society”.
Or. Petro's latest book, which
has just been published, is entitled
"Power Unlimited—The Corruption
Of Union Leadership". The, book
contains' a comprehensive outline of
the evidence presented to the McLel-
lan Labour Committee at Washing-
ton. The• testimony quoted shows
how corruption in the labour move-
'rnent gnaws way into business and
government.
Dr. Petra's conclusion is that
corruption in unions has stemmed
froth ,the virtually unlimited power
that unions have won' frdin govern-
inkts:
As to remedies, Dr. Petro sug-
gests that the destructive special
privileges of unions be withdrawn
and that unions return to free collec-
tive bargaining and voluntary union-
ism. He believes that unions and
free collective bargaining are vital
to a healthy, free economy.
Dr. Petro would prohibit all
forms of compulsory unionism. He
would outlaw all strike violence and
mass picketing, insisting that local
law enforcement officers do their
job of protecting life, liberty and
property.
Surnining up, Dr. Petro, declares,
"We have thousands upon thousands
of rules and statutes, millions upon
millions of government employees.
Yet we have no law." Responsible
voluntary unionism and limited gov-
ernment , intervention are his main
objectives. Perhaps there should be,
both in Canada `and the United
States, a new sense of just who with-,
in the nation constitutes the major-
ity.. Our whole conception of gov-
ernment is based on the belief that
the wishes and needs of the majority
must receive first consideration.
A perpetuation of the present
labour and strike situation is d glar-
ing oversight .of the fact that the
unorganized classes of our society,
the countless thousands of business-
men, farmers, widows, pensioners,
industry workers, fishermen,• house-
wives, children, students —are all
paying a high forfeit every day of
their lives to meet the demands of
organized labor,

of this and many other countries, It
is the first indication, in a whole
element of city youngsters, that they
intendto do as they please„ despite
the best , efforts of social workers,
youth leaders and law enforcement
officers. Vandalism has become, in
our time, a disease rather than a mis-
demeanor.
It is to be hoped that the acts
which have been committed here are
merely the one and only outbreak of
a group of otherwise sensible young-

they are an, invincible set of wash-

thingand that is right now.

will no longer be subject to subsidiz-
ed taxation, but will be assessed on
the same basis as the rest of the

Only fair.'
• The big questiori7707T7i7cis
is why the Corporation, which is
suppOsed to be a non-profit crown
corporation, is asking a figure which
would certainly appear to leave con-
siderable profit on the over-all rent-
purchase deal.
