levels have more than tripled in some of the

welcomed by the main line carriers.
Project ReRail was developed in the
1977-81 period to look into ways of improving
rail service in Midwestern Ontario and in
other parts of the province.
Recently we discussed the problem of
railway abandonments which are growing
in numbers each month with the Ontario
Ministry of Transportation and Com-
munications. They were quite favourable

Dear Editor:
1986 marks the 40th Anniversary of the
United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF).
During the past four decades, UNICEF has
established an international reputation for
emergency relief and long-term develop-
ment programs which have saved and im-
proved the lives of millions of the world's
most needy children.
In the beginning, UNICEF's mandate was
to assist m the re -settlement of 20 million

health care; improved nutrition, clean
water and sanitation, and basic social ser-
vices to millions more children in the
developing countries of Asia, Africa, Latin ,w
America and the Far East.
In the 80's, UNICEF is leading a virtual
revolution in child survival. Through a sim-
ple, low-cost four-part health program
which uses local volunteers and materials
readily accessible world-wide, many, many
children who might have died before the age
of five years are now surviving.
One of the most important aspects of this
program is UNICEF's commitment to im-
munize all the world's children by the year
1990. At present, five million children • '
around the world die each year from
vaccine -preventable diseases including ':
Measles, Polio, Tuberculosis, Tetanus Dip-
theria, and Pertussis (Whooping Cough). ;'
This tragic toll in young lives is indeed a
strong motivation to help UNI
C F reach
ac thiss immunization goals by
decade.
As Honorary Co -Chairmen of the Ontario
UNICEF Committee, we would like to invite
your readers to join the CHILD SURVIVAL

REVOLUTION today, as they prepare
the holiday season ahead. Just $5.00 - less',
than the price of one box of UNICEF
