Great strides forward have been made in the orderly mar- _ keting of farmproducts. Price supports are a reality. with Premier FROST These last ten years, beyond all comparison, have witnessed the greatest development in the history of our province. In these ten years, Ontario's advances in the development of resources, business expansion and human betterment have been unsurpassed anywhere. The dynamic economic creed of the Government of Premier Leslie Frost has been—and continues to be— MORE PEOPLE, MORE INDUSTRY, MORE JOBS, MORE WAGES, MORE OPPORTUNITY, and from these MORE PRODUCTIVITY AND REVENUE TO DO THE JOB. Great as Ontario's progress has been, under wise and sound Progressive Conservative policies, even greater progress lies ahead. HIGHWAYS In ten years, Ontario's invest- ment in our vast provincial highway system has risen from $65 million to $238 million a year. Road grants for the improvement of municipal roads are up from $15 million to $61 million a year. MUNICIPAL AID P -C Government policies have lightened the burden on every municipal taxpayer. Provincial aid has increased from $82 million to $310 million annually in ten years. HUMAN BETTERMENT Ontario's' advances in health, education and welfare are unequalled, Investment in human betterment has risen from $104 million to $329 million a year— about half of Ontario's total revenues, Personal income has risen much faster than living cost. HOUSING Vigorous governinent action has abated the acute housing shortage. In 10 years, 425,000 new dwelling units have been completed, a record without equal on this continent. 1958 saw an all-time high of 64,000 completions.

Any owner or harborer of a dog who allows it to run at large can be sum- moned into court. The fine in a case of this kind could be $50.00 and costs. The Council and myself would ask all citizens concerned to comply with the laws and avoid the consequences. E. F.
