Over 90 Percent
Agree To Vaccine
Parents of Goderich elementary
school pupils have responded very
well to the consent forms sent out
in connection with the polio vac-
cination program.
Dr. R. M. Allis, medical officer
of health, reports that over 90 per-
cent of the parents have signed the
forms consenting to Salk shots
for their children.
Of those parents who have de-
clined to give their approval yet,
most have done so because of al-
lergic tendencies which their child-
ren have shown to drugs.
A Shipment of the Salk polio
vaeeine may be received by the
Huron County Health Unit ah any
moment now, according to word
from the OnItario Department of
Health.
The vaccination program will
likely begin in Goderich, then
spreading oqt to other Huron
towns, villages§ and townships. De-
tails are now being worked out by
the health unit under the direction
of Dr. Addis.
Last year, pupils -of grades 1, 2
and. 3 received two Salk shots
eayrh. This year they will be given
a third injection and, all other ele-
mentary school students will re-
ceive their first two shots.
"We had a very good record
with .the use of the polio vaccine
last year," says Dr, Allis, com-
menting on the health unit's-'Islens.
Experience 'has shown that child-
ren are more tolerant of drugs
than adults and less likely to have
-allergic reactions.
QUEEN'S PARK REPORT
(By Tom Pryde, M.P.P.)
The Session opened on February
lst with the usual Speech fron
the Throne, in which some very
important measures were forecast
and much of it actually translated
into legislation.. Something q,,
very real importance to Western
Ontario has been started on its
course. The Ontario Water Re-
sources Commission has been form-
ed. Its function will be to devise
ways and means of piping water
from the Great Lakes to cities and
towns which have not an adequate
supply readily available to take
care of their expansion and ever
increasing needs. It will also have
power to control and try to carrect
the problem of pollution of our
rivers and streams. This- is; auge
undertaking and will involve-mil-
lions
nvolve mil -lions of dollars of expenditure and
years of work.
Possibly Stratford and the Kit-
chener -Waterloo area would draw
water from Lake Huron and a pipe-
line from a paint just north of
Grand Bend would be the shortest
route for such an undertaking. If
this comes to pass, many places
through the southern part of the
County would benefit. -This is only
one phase of this vast undertaking
which would be of local interest.
Hospital Plan
The much discussed National
Hospital Plan has also been set in
motion by the passing of an Act
establishing The Ontario Hospital
Services Commission. This body
will plan and direct future hospital
expansion so that it will fit in with
the needs of a national hospital
scheme.. It will also be charged
with the operation of the Hospital
Plan when it is finally decided
what form this will take. The dis-
cussion on this subject has-been
long.and varied. Experts in every
phase of this matter have appeared
before the com+mrttee and almost
everdy-.has a different opinion
of _what is meant by a,.plan-of--hos-
pital insurance. Some think it

should cover every form of .sick-
ness and any length of stay in
hospital; others believe it should
cover only catastrophic illness;
meaning that it should cover only
sickness of long Duration where a
person may lose his all --his farm,
his home or his business.
As this involves negotiation be-
tween the Government of Canada
and the province, no agreement
has been reached on several points.
For instance, the government at
Ottawa does not plan to share in
the cost of operating sanatoriums
or mental hospitals. Ontario
thinks people in institutions of this
nature should rbe regarded as sick
in the same way as anyone who is
confined in a public general hos-
pital. These instances are men-
tioned to indicate The complexity
of the problem. It cannot ,be too
strongly pointed out that it will
east every one of us money, so the
question- of- how -it- will be, financed"
is also of great importance. Shall
it be by -premiums paid by in-
dividuals or iby groups? How will
these premiums be collected? Shall
it be by 'imposing further taxes on
what we buy as, for instance, 'by
a sales tax at the retail level, or
shall it 'be a combination of both?
It wili not attempt to answer eithert
of these questions, but the Premier
has repeatedly said he wants .to he
sure the kind of scheme put into
operation will give the people o
Ontario a hospital plan which wil
be workable and meet the needs
of the people. Personally, I have
expressed the view repeatedly that
the position of the rural co-oper-
;,-"atives '.must be protected in any
scheme which may be adopted.
Marketing Act
As the validity of the Farm Pro
-d
,ucts Marketing Acct_ is in ,question
'and ii- -cott°e t eeor'e tine txprerne
Court of Canada in the course of
another month, very little has been
done abbeabbethis Act at this session.
The premier has announced that
a special session of the Legislature
will be convened at a later date to
consider this in the light of the
decision of 'the Supreme Court.
Another bill of importance to
the farmer is The Brucellosis Act.
The Act has been entirely rewrit-
ten and now provides for:
1. Provincial administration under
a supervised area system.
2. Vaccination and blood tests will
be made without cost to, the
cattle owner.
3. Cattle owners' will be -compen-
sated if a calf dies as a result
of vaccination.
The Budget indicated that OwOwrevenue and also the spending will
be at the highest level in the his-
tory of the province. Highway ex-
penditures will be at an all time
high. In Huron the work at pre-
sent in progress an No 8 will be
continued. Paving will be com-
pleted between Clinton and Gode-
rich; the grading and culverts east
of Seaforth will also be finished
and money is provided in the
estimates for paving as soon as the
road is in condition for this oper-
atian. A similar situation exists
on Highway No. 83 east of Exeter.
When grading is completed, paving
is provided for. As considerable
planning and engineering work is
necessary before actual conetruc
tion commences, I may say that
the highways in the County wil:
not be neglected and engineering
work is well in hand, The expend
itures on highways far exceeds the
revenue. The income from gaso-
line taxes and the licence fees f:rr
cars and trucks, etc. will approxi
imate 140 million dollars. Expend
iture on new construction will co
approximately 85 million dollars;
maintenance will absorb 48 million
dollars; municipal subsidies for th(
maintenance of their own road
and streets will account for 50 mil-
lion dollars. In additiop, some 11
million dollars will ibe spent in
acquiring land for widening exist
ing roads and building new four -
lane highways.
.New Schools
Over 108 million d:llars is al-
lotted to education, which, with
they expenditures at the Ontaro
Agricultural College, will account
for 28`;x, orf total government spend-
ing. New schools are required in
increasing numbers, particularlS
in the vicinity of the large cities.
Grants to school boards for new
construction have been reducer,
but all are treated alike. The
grant per -rooms is the same for
city school as it is for a smell
own.
In all, over one hundred and
forty bills were enacted. Some
of these, of course, were of a
minor nature and involved simple
changes in the wording of an exist
ing Act hut designed to clarify it'
meaning. Others are designed 1:
meet special Situations, while stili
others have a very far reaching
effect on the whole province.
Committees perform a very real
art of the work of the Session.
I'or the second time in three
years, the honor of bringing the
first ship of the season into 'Goole -
rich harbor fell to Capt. James
Burns of the 5.r. Imperial London.
Captain Burns, whose vessel dock-
ed on Friday shortly after 2 p.m.,
was presented with the traditional
silk topper by iMayor J. E. Huckins.
"We left Sarnia about seven
o'clock in the morning," said the
skipper, "and While we . encounter-
ed about a mile of ice, it was not
heavy." The tanker brought a
cargo .of 24,000 barrels of gasoline
to • Goderirch -frown Sarnia.
The mayor presented Capt.
Burns with the silk topper - at a
town hall ceremony, whielieewas
alsoattended by Reeve J. H. Gra-
ham, Councillor Charles Robertson,
E. M. Richardson, Goderidh plant
supervisor for Imperial Oil, S. H.
Blake, town clerk, and Police Chief
F. M. Hall.
Shortly _ after Friday midnight,
the Imperial London put out into
Lake. Huro again on its return
voyage to Sarnia. "
Last year, navigation was open-
ed at Goderich on March 29 by the
S.S. Imperial Sirncoe, another Im-

NAMED DIRECTOR
Rev. R. G. IMaeMillan, Goderich,
has been named director of the
Stewardship Sector Project for the
Presbyterian Presbytery of Huron -
Maitland. Co-director will be Rev.
T. J. 'McKinney, of Teeswater. A
steering committee comprising the
minister and representative elders
from the congregations willing to
participate was named. The fol-
lowing congregations to date are
participating: Goderich, Seaforth,
Teeswater, Molesworth and Gorrie.
The sector project is a combination
of the Every #'erSon canvass and
Visitation Evangelism.
WARNINGTOCLUBS
A special notice has been issued
for the benefit of district service
clubs by the ,promoter of a show
called "Magira•m:a." To any club
which may be approached re the
sponsoring of this shorov,, the pro-
moter, E. G. Haverstock, of Toledo,
Ohio, wishes it to be known that
Leland L. Curry is no longer in
,his employ.
Sixteen committees in all were
I appointed and your representative
1 was a member of fourteen of them.
As committee meetings are held
practically every morning after the
first week of the Session, it would
seem to indicate a very. busy time
for the .members.
Special Session
As previously intimated, a spec-
- sal session of the Legislature will

there is a`li'kelihood that another
one will be heid in the fall of the
year. In view of all of this, it will
be seen that the job of being a
member of the Legislature is be-
coming a full time one.
The foregoing is a partial ac-
count of what took place during
the last session of the Legislature
and I trust it will be accepted by
my constituents as a report by
their member. It was a pleasure
to have so, many people from
Huron visit with me at the Parlia-
ment Buildings and sit in and
observe the House..in session. To
many it was an ofd experience but
to others it was new and interest-
ing. I 'hope from year to year
during the time the 'Legislature
is in session it willbe my privilege
to welcome you in increasing num-
bers. The members regret that
the facilities for entertaining our
constituents are not equal to what
is available at Ottawa but that, too. 1
i� sorhething which will be improv-
ed as time goes on.
