John Van Gastel, 50, of Brantford, and formerly of Vanastra, the owner of Van Gastel Real Estate, was recently convicted in Kitchener Provincial Court of income tax evasion. Earlier this year, Fred Ginn, 58, Waterloo was sentenced to 1,80 days in jail or fined $26,432.99, the amount of tax avoided on in- come,of $90,403 from 1972 to 1977 inclusive. Fund Reaches $50,000 Mark - Donations are still coming in steadily in the Clinton Public Hospital's fund raising draw, but the project can't get started until there is $170,000 in funds and pledges, one of the fund raising committee members said this week. George Levis of the fund raising commit- tee, said Tuesday that the hospital board in under orders not to proceed with construc- tion of the $866,000 addition until they have at least $170,000. Penny Sale Nets Most $$$ Ever - The most successful annual penny sale since its begin- ning 27 years ago was held Saturday in the Clinton Town Hall. Approximately $3,500 was realized due to the excellent co-operation of local and area merchants and private cash donors produc- ing beautiful useful and necessary articles for prizes totalling over 200. 10 years ago September 30, 1976 Miller Says He'll Quit If Hospitals Stay hospitals, - If he can't close including Clinton Public Hospital, Frank Miller will resign from his post as provincial health minister, he announced late last week. If the government loses their appeal in a court decision to close hospitals in Clinton as well as Chesley, Durham and Doctor's Hospital in Toronto, Mr. Miller wants to br- ing in legislation which will allow a health nunister to close a hospital- gpr If the- government decides against bring- ing in the legislation Mr. Miller said he would resign. Auto pact crucial... freza page 4 comply with rules of the auto pacts. Im- porters currently account for a minority of vehicle sales - about 30 per cent. With 428,000 jobs created by 70 per cent of the market, each one per cent mathematically could be said to mean about 6,000 jobs in Canada, the majority of which are in Ontario. A number of import companies are now moving in Canada with kit assembly of their products. They plan to bring in their own parts, and some of their own workforce, without falling under the guidelines of the auto pact. In short, they wish to sell in our country, but not provide additional jobs, in the marketplace. These companies are Hyundai, Honda and Toyota. Each one per cent increase in their sales will result in the Loss of 6,000 jobs in Ontario - jobs for people who may be your friends and neighbors. The auto industry in Canada has shown it can manufacture better products with bet- ter efficiency than the importers. A survey of auto engineers in the world rates Mercedes No. 1, G.M. No. 2 and Ford No. 3, with Asian importers trailing. Asian vehicles have performed poorly in government sponsored crash tests and in some countries last only one third as long as North American produced vehicles. In addition, North American dollar sales per employee are 50 per cent higher than Japanese importers and 200 per cent higher than Korean importers. There are two ways that we as Canadians can keep these 428,000 jobs intact and possibly increase them. One, as consumers, is to buy products built by companies concerned about employment in' Canada - those companies that fall under the auto pact: AMC, Chrysler, Ford, GM, Volvo and Suzuki (in AIL 1989). IMF The other is to apply pressure to our governments to put pressure on these other companies not following auto pact guidelines. Let's keep our country strong.
