Health and Welfare Minister
John. MUM° has announced a
federal government program of
research, training and public
information in family planning.
4 "In adopting this program",
Mr. Munro said, "the
government recognizes and
supports the right of Canadians
to exercise free individual choice
in the practice of family
planning. It is our hope, through
the program, that family
planning information and
services will become available to,
all who want them."
He said hisidepartment would
•, encourage resbarch in this field
through grants and contract d to
other agencies as wellas within
the department. It will
undertake the dissemination of
family planning information in
collabOration with provincial
governments and private
agencies. In the area, of training,
the greatest need is to prepare
* health and welfare professionals
to become more effective.
Mr. Munro emphasized that
use of the information and
services tope offered would be
on a voluntary basis. "The use of
family planning". he said, "is a
decision to be taken by the
individual citizen, There will be
no suggestion of coercion
toward anyone;. we sluill4;do
everything possible to safeguard
against that."
The government has, been
concerned with Canada's rate of
progress In reducing infant
mortality, being outranked by
countries having national family
planning programs,
"There is good reason to
believe", Mr. Munro said, "that
effective programs for family
planning would reduce the
incidence of unwanted children,
of child neglect, abandonment,
desertiOn, welfare *dependency
and child abuse."
' The Minister pointed out that
a number of the provinces
already offer family planning
services AO varying extents.
Discussions to' date indicate a
positive interest in federal
information And consultation
proposals. The organization and
administration of family
planning programs, like other
areas in the fields of health and
welfare, will be assume4
primarily at the provincial level,
"The federal department and
4 the Medical Research Council",
Mr. Munro said, "are sponsoring

DEAR ANN LANDERS: I
was fascinated with the letter
from. the woman whose husband
wanted her to have an affair
with K, a mutual friend.
Apparently their sex life • was
unsatisfactory and he suggested
an "outside , experiment" to
pinpoint the deficient partner.
The wife agreed to go along. She
reasoned, "If K and I hear a
thousand violins we will know
there's nothing wrong with my
sexual responses. My husband
will then go for counseling."
Obviously, that couple could
riot have had much of a musical
education. They don't know the
difference betweeh violin music
wind an organ exercise. Your
. column has done a great deal to
help people distinguish between
the two. Please continue to give
those wonderful • music
appreciation courses, " Ann.
People need to listen more
carefully and recognize what it is
they're listening to. Great violin
music demands true artistry and
dedicated practice. PlaYing, an
organ is a different story. All
you need is an instrument. -

factors involved --
"The new 'program," said the
Minister, "will . require close
collaboration among
governments, professional
agencies and other interested
bodies, and- this- applies
particularly to the public
inforniation task. Family
planning services must be known
and available to' all citizens -
not just those in high income
levels."

consumers.
The specifications have been

be forbidden.
The Minister expressed his
thanks to' those .who have
_offered.,zeo.aperation -in the
introuuction ot tne system, an
urged consumer . groups and
individuals to support it. „
"We have worked out a
system for Canada that is
designed for our needs," Mr.
Basford said. "I believe it will be
helpful in • the . care and
preservation of Materials. Similar
systems have proved effective in
• Europe."
Descriptions of the system

available from the Department

Affairs.
With Thanksgiving the air,
perhaps it's as good a time as
any to giYethanks that all our
women have not joined the
lunatic fringe of the Women's
Liberation Movement.
I'm not knocking the Move-
ment. The maiotitY, of those
who belong to it ant wok for it
are mature, intelligent women
who believe there is discrimina-
tion against Women" in sofhe
areas and want to abolish it.
I agree with them about the
discrimination in some areas. .
But I want no -more to 'do, witb,.
the screaming, bra -waving,
int,staht-abortion parodies of
women"- Who - haunt their ranks
than I do with the hard.pore of
Maoists who turn every peaceful
protest meeting into a -riot.
'Twas not always thus. 4,
look at history shows us sritrie
remarkable women who, had
tremendous influence without
ever waving a placard or scream-
ing epithets at policemen. Back
to Greek mythology. Hera, wife
of Zeus, was a wicked old
dowager who repaid him in
spades every time he strayed
from the straight and narrop.
Venus and Aphrodite did all
right for themselves. Among
. mortals, Helen of Troy launched -
a thousand ships. And she didn't
do it by flaunting her girdle on
the end of a pole. She did it with
her face. • • ,

Moving quickly, look at the
