lld'ozer caltches fire - but department +extin,
By Doris Hunter
BAYFIELD - Did you wonder where the
fire was early one morning this week? A
bulldozer belonging to the Diemerts caught
fire at Snowden Acres. Our men were quick-
ty on.the spot with their customary efficiency.
We hope the folks who race through our
streets, with squealing tires and no regard for
pedestrians can be made to realize that
ayfield is not the raceway at Indianapolis.
Qne mother of two small boys narrowly
escaped injury from reckless drivers turning
tie corner at her own home, while a walk
&own the long hill road,ivith cars ignoring the
red warnings, made her feel she was some
ki'id of a target trying to avoid being hit with
h . little boys. Responsible citizens should jot
dothe license numbers of such drivers.

Traveller Returns
Susan Eibel who lives on Louisa Street has
returned from a most eventful trip to Europe.
Coming from Rumania, she has observed the
conditions in Eastern Europe over the years
and her vivid impressions on this trip are
quite revealing. She was travelling through
Austria at -the time fo Kurt Waldheim's par-
tial election, then in Rumania at the time of
the Chernobyl disaster. Reports of vegetables
being ploughed under, milk and fresh cheese
not edible because of radiation with iodine
tablets distributed to the children are quite
true.
It was five days before they were warned

of the accident. However the people of
Rumania are suffering from malnutrition
already. Mrs. Eibel says that it would take
the work of 60 Rumanian farmers to produce
what three Canadian farmers. provide.
Factories have been built in place of the
farms, and the people must work seven days
a week under the Communist regime. Ruma-
nians, of German descent can immigrate to
West Germany, but it could take as long as
40 years to obtain a visa and the payment of
7,000 German marks.
It would take three and a half hours of labor
to earn the equivalent of one Canadian dollar
in lei, the currency of the country.
Should you wish to cash a dollar at the bank,
you might receive 10 lei, perhaps nine or what
the rate of the day is, but on the black market
probably, 35 lei.
A pound of sugar, if you could get it, might
be as much as 30 lei. Milk is only available

for children up wane year of age and there
is duty charged even on presents taken Into
the country. The people have a fat look about
them, but it is riot caused by over eating,
rather dependence on bread as there is no
meat for the masses. Susan had bloodtests
taken in Germany and again in Toronto on her
return to discover how much, if any, radia-
tion she had received as -her stay in Sibeiu,
Transylvania was so close to Kiev.
Her travels took her through Hungary and
Germany as well as day trips to Holland,
visiting relatives she has obtained a true pic-
ture, not a tourist's view of the condition of
the six million people living in Austria,
23million in Rumania, and eight million in
Hungary.
She is happy to be back at home, with the
wide open spaces of Canada and the good
earth of Huron County.
