All three political parties have approved the idea of an inquiry, although they disagree on the scope and form of the proposed investigation. Counsel William Poole submitted a strongly - worded report to the committee, based upon public testimony by a number of witnesses and confidential interviews with six food suppliers. In his opinion, "the arranging of discounts is an unequal battle bet- ween strong (super- market) chains and weaker (food) processors which may have the effect of gouging." Discounts "do not seem to be related to volume selling, but perhaps are related to concentration in the hands of a few." In: the course of his submission to the com- mittee, Mr. Poole mentioned Liberal MPP Jim McGuigan (Ken- t)Elgit), "an apple grower before this coomittee," who had objected to the discounting, which c at)„sed the chain stores to make a change. "If all apple growers did that, they'd do away with this discount. In other words, you scared them off" he told McGuigan. He warned that too much power among the retail chains will reduce competition at the processor level and lead to a system of vertical integration, in which the chains control food processing as well as retailing. The committee has recommended that the investigation should be carried out by an in- dependent body, and proposed a food industry trade practices com- mission, which would consist of a nominee of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture, the Ontario section of the consumers association of Canada and each of the three political parties in Ontario. The Lieutenant Governor would appoint the chairman from the five nominees, and the commission would have a broad mandate to look into "the marketing of food in Ontario with respect to prices, price spreads, price discounts, rebates and allowances, trade practices, methods of financing and management policies relating to the marketing of farm produ'cts." About a month ago, injured workers and Metro Toronto Police clashed during a demonstration calling for increased benefits from Workmen's Com- pensation Board. Now the Minister of Labour, the Honourable Bette Stephenson, has proposed an average 25 percent increase in benefits. If the legislation is ap- proved, the increase will take effect July 1. This would be the first such increase in three years. The Bill will be retroactive in three stages to July 1, 1976, and would include any im- mediate lump sum payment. It would raise the ceiling on earnings for a temporary disability allowance to $16,200 from $15,000 and the maximum rate of compensation payable to injured workers would increase by eight percent to $233.66 a week. The minimum permanent pension for total disability would increase to $509. from $400 a month ; for 50 percent disability from $200 to $254.40; and for 25 per- cent disability to $127.25 from $100. For a dependent spouse the pension would in- crease to $365 a month from $286, for dependent children to $99 from $77 and for orphans to 8113 from $88. The initial lump sum payment for dependent spouses and the burial allowances would increase to $800 from $600. Opposition members have been calling for such an increase. Liberal Leader Stuart Smith said he was "bitter" that, injured workers were forced to "suffer through - a hard winter and spring" when the money for increases was available all the time. (The minister had been refusing to legislate any increased compensation until a report on the financial structure of the Board was completed , and the report, com- missioned over a year ago, was.. only recently tabled.) The Line Fences Act, 1978, was introduced this week by the Honourable Darcy Mc eough. The new bill cage about as a result of lengthy discussions particularly with representatives of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture and the Rural Ontario Municipal Association. In the new Bill as op- posed to the present Line Fences Act: • The distinction bet- ween occupied and unoccupied lands is being removed. • A line fence will no longer be mandatory in every case, but only where one adjoining owner wants a fence. • Where adjoining owners cannot reach agreement, one owner may simply notify the clerk of the local municipality that he wants the fence -viewers to arbitrate the dispute. If, however, the municipal council has p, sed a by-law providing that the clerk is not to be involved, the owner will have to arrange the arbitration himself as with th.� present Act. • The . options oft the Fence -viewers in making their award are being clarified and broadened. •The appeal of either owner from the fence - viewers' award will be the Small Claims Court rather than, to the county or district court. - • If the owner fails to obey the award and the other owner does the work and wants to recover the value of that work, h'e will have the fence -viewers reconvene to certify the amount owed him by the defaulting owner, rather than having to take action in the Small Claims Courts. • In addition to the methods in the existing Act for collecting the amount owed him by the defaulting owner, the other owner will be able if the municipal council provides by by-law. to collect the amount from the defaulting owner as taxes with interest. The Minister of Community and Social Services, Larry Grossman, has indicated that the province will have to play a much larger role in supervising children's aid societies'in the light of a report that they have failed ' to protect children from abuse or violent death. This report recently released by a task force on the matter of child abuse has concluded that "the public and professionals have every right to be concerned about the failure of our children's services to protect children known to be in perilous situations." Last year, some. 1,045 incidents of child abuse were reported to the central registry in Ontario - 13 resulted in death. In 1976, there were 731 reported abuses , resulting in six deaths.• The task force report made 21 recom- mendations, including better ministry standards. and guidelines for dealing with child abuse and improved monitoring of the societies to ensure that the guidelines are followed in an effort to improve what is called "an alarming situation." Approval in principle has been given by the Legislature to a gover- nment bill which would make public the names of Ontario companies joining an Arab boycott of firms that do business with Israel. A number of opposition members. while supporting the bill in principle, expressed concern that the wording Night possibly bar someone from boycotting South Africa's wines in protest against that country's racial policies or boycotting products with no union labels.

Card of thanks UPSHAI.I. i wish to thank the residents of Clan Gregor Apartments for the flowers and all my friends and neighbours and the I.adies Guild for the 2^as and kindness shown m ' ,t the time my sister, Mrs••. fayter passed away. Mrs. Rota Upsha l 1.-26 By Alice Gibb Declining enrolment, the sword hanging over the heads of many school boards, was a major factor in the decision to terminate noon hour busing for separate school pupils in Goderich, St. Mary's and Stratford. The Huron -Perth Roman Catholic Separate School board, on a close vote at Monday's meeting, agreed to ter- minate the noon hour service for urban pupils due to declining loadings on school buses. The board will save $12,000 annually by cutting out the service. The decision will affect 65 pupils in the town of Goderich, 50 in St. Mary's and 205 pupils in Strat- ford. In Stratford, the per pupil cost of busing is $207 per year, but this will drop to $171 per year -per pupil if only morning and afternoon services are offered, a saving of $36 per pupil. Ronald Marcy, a Stratford trustee, said pupil schools in the city now offer noon hour busing during the winter months and "we must remain competitive." He said he felt the separate schools would lose students if they stopped `' providing the noon hour busing service for their urban pupils. David Treehan, another Stratford trustee, also spoke against the motion to terminate the service, saying there was quite a problem in the .city over busing in the past and separate schools lost a number of students, some of whom still haven't returned to the separate school system. He said he felt the recommendation to terminate the service in Stratford hadn't had a proper study.Ronald Marcy put forward a motion to delete the town of Stratford from the original motion but this was defeated. Another trustee said he. felt each town should have been dealt with separately. Connolly, said he could see no reason for offering the noon hour busing service since it wasn't available in other centres such as Scaforth. Ronald Marcy said when the busing costs for Stratford students were looked at on a daily basis, it was costing the board about 15 cents per pupil to send 'students home for lunch, which was less than students would pay on the public tran- sportation system. He said the board must remember the public schools had started noon hour busing two years ago. William Kinahan, the vice-chairman, said he wondered what kind of a can of worms the hoard would he opening up with St. Mary's and Goderich if Stratford was exem- pted from having their service terminated. In a recorded vote, board members 1Ronald Marcy, David Treehan, John O'Drowski, M. Vere, A. • Haid and V. Young opposed the motion to end the noon hour service. Trustee Ted Geoffrey asked to abstain from the vote, which meant chairman Donald Crowley had to cast the tie -breaking vote. Mr. Crowley voted to ter- minate the service. Ronald Marcy then requested a check of the board's bylaws to ascertain if it was legal to allow a trustee to abstain from voting when he didn't have a conflict of interest or hadn't been excused from voting on a vote of the board. The trustees then passed a motion sup- porting chairman Crowley's decision to let Mr. Geoffrey abstain from the vote. The board members also approved a recommendation to reduce the n•imber of buses which transport students to Mount Caramel School from five buses to four. In the past, the county of Lambton has paid the Huron -Perth board a tuition fee for, Bosanquet Township students who attend Mount Carmel, the separate school closest to Grand Bend. Lambton County then contracted for their own busing service for the students. Starting in September, Lambton County will pay the Huron:Perth board both transportation fees and tuition costs. This means the Bosanquet Twsp. students will ride the same bus which is picking up Huron County students in the Mount Carmel area. Jack Lane, superin- tendent of business and finance, said reducing the number of buses will reduce the costs of transporting students and improve the loading ratio on the buses. Board members also agreed to advertise for sale on 1970-66 passenger school bus which was used to transport students to the Zurich school, The bus has been replaced with a 1977 model. Help your Help your Heart... Heart Fund sugar necessary for four syrup strengths. +Thin, 250 mL sugar + 500 mL water. Moderately thin, 250 mL sugar + 400 mL water. + Medium, 250 mL sugar + 250 mL water + Heavy 250 mL sugar + 200 mL water. To make the syrup, stir the sugar in the water until dissolved, then chill. Allow 175 to 250 mL syt up for each 500 mL con- tainer. Choose the strength of syrup ac- cording to the acidity of the fruit and your own personal preference. Slice or cut the fruit directly into containers and cover with the syrup, leaving headspace for expansion. Peaches and apricots require' the addition of ascorbic acid to prevent discoloration. If freezing in syrup, keep these proportions in mind. To 1 L of cold syrup, add 1 m L 1 crystalline or powdered ascorbic acid (vitamin C) or 800 mg of the tablet form. When using tablets, dissolve in 15 mL of water before adding to the syrup. If you prefer, you can freeze desserts you prepared ahead. Fvuit pies are always a favorite and can solve the drop-in guest problem. It is best to freeze pies before they're cooked. Remember to increase the thickener in the fruit mixture by one-third and do not cut vents in the top-, crust. Simply freeze unbaked until firm, then wrap in freezer bags or wrappings. They'll retain their fresh flavor up to six months in the freezer. When the time arrives for them to be taken out of the deep freeze and cooked, cut vents in the top crust. Bake 20 min. at 220 degrees C, then reduce the heat to 180 degrees C and continue baking until the pastry , browns (60. min. in glass plates, 70 min. in metal and 80 min. in foil plates).
