•-Why then is it that we are re-
garded as off the beaten track? I
do not know, bat that is my object
in returning to the subject so- of-
ten, so long as I remain the, mem-
ber for that riding -4 -mill continue
to repeat the story.
It is admitted that this country
is very diversified in climate, na-
tural resources and opportunities.
Inour discussions with the gov-
erntnent of Canada' it is freely ad-
mitted that we have the "haves"
and the "have note', and that the
opportunity of maintaining what
we call a "Canadian standard of
living" is not easy in some places
in comparison to others.
It is admitted that, in devising
a formula to equalize opportunity,
there must be a system of taking
from one and giving to the other.
Similarly in the province, in the
matter of government grants and
subsidies, this difficulty is also
recognized. For instance, in the
matter of school grants, a small
rural school section gets a propor-
tionately higher grant than does a
large city.
We have what are known as
"high income areas" and "low in-
come areas", and it is better when
the difference between these two
groups is narrow and the average
high.
At the present time..as a nation
we are prosperous; industrial pro-
duction is at its peak, wages and
other incomes are at an all time
high, and people. generally are en-
joying a good standard of living.
The point I wish to make is this
-.--the high income group is not to
be found in agricultural counties
such as Huron. Finding a remedy -
for this condition is one of the big
questions to be solved. We cannot
have a healthy economy when one
segment of the population is weal-
thy and another poor.
As I have pointed out many
times before, agriculture is the

she is a spastic and must wear a brace on one

walking without a brace are proMioing. But
she has to attend a therapy class every week, so
she must be in a home near a clinic. This

pill along the shore of Lake On-
tario, industrial establishments are
increasing by leaps and bounds.
The southwestern sections of the
province, say in 'the Chatham,
Windsor and Sarnia triangle, is
highly industrialized; but from -
Sarnia north along Lake Huron in
the counties of, Huron, Bruce and
Grey, we are still largely agricul-
tural. As a consequence, we are
not sharing in the general pros-
perity of the country.
Recent assessment figures in the
County of Huron indicate Several
of the towns have decreased in
population in the last year or two,
and this in my opinion is a de-
plorable situation.
A great deal has been said about
the task of the Water Resources
Commission, and I would like to
link up with this thought, the im-
portance of this commission. The
creation of this body is one of the
most important measures under-
taken by this government, and in
my opinion it will rank as the
greatest monument which our hon.
Prime Minister has created to
himself. For many years I have
said the day was not too far dis-
tant when water from the Great
Lakes would have to be used in in-
land communities. I said that in
this Legislature six or seven years,
ago.
Although I will be unrelenting in
my efforts to publicize Huron
County, I will admit that, even
with water at our doorstep, some
parts of the county lack an ade-
quate supply and are handicapped
in attracting industry.
Despite the difficulties being en-
countered by the Water Resources
Commission in dealing with the
problem, of various municipalities,
I think the very number of pro-
jects placed before it in the first
year of its existence serves to
prove the statement I have made,
that its task is monumental, and
on its success depends the pros-
perity and growth of a large sec-
tion of the province.
One of its great financial, if not
engineering, tasks, will be to bring
water from the Great Lakes to in-
terior points.
A study of the map would indi-
cate that if water is to be drawn
from that inexhaustible source to
meet the needs of Western Ontario
cities such as Stratford, Kitchener
and Galt. and also London and
surrounding territory. a point on
Lake Huron just north of Grand
Bend appears to be the logical
point of intake.
The Water Resources Commis-
sion is a body whose activities I
will follow with more than casual
interest, and I am sure their work
will be of incalculable benefit to
Southwestern Ontario in particu-
lar.
I have tried to indicate that Hur-
on County is very important, but
that, as an agricultural county, it
might be called a "have-not" 'part
of the province or in the "low in-
come group." We are not sharing
in the general prosperity of the
nation,
There is no easy remedy, but I
submit a few thoughts which may
in some measure help the situa-
tion:
1. Improve marketing techniques
so that the farmer may have
greater control over his products
until they reach the table of the
consumer. In a word, so that the
producer will secure a greater
share of the consumer's dollar, but
I hasten to explain that I do not
suggest this is a cure-all. A large
exportable surplus of farm pro-
ducts no longer exists, the home
market is most important. and
more prosperous small towns would
be of inestimable benefit to the
whole economy.
2. Greater efforts must be ex-
erted to attract industry, and I
believe our Department of' Plan-
ning and Development is doing all
we can expect a government to do
towards' this end. We art* not a
totalitarian state, so we cannot tell
au i.ritlustrialist: "You must build
your plant up in Huron, Bruce or
Gref," but I would like to corn -
Mend the department and the
boards established under its plan,
for the great efforts they are put-
ting forth in Oda respeet. •
The County of Huron is on the
lake, and We want to -sell that to
everybody who may be looking for
a° location for new industry. It
should be easier to take industry

The hon. member for York West
(Mr. Rowntree), when commenting
on this subject in his address, not-
ed that action on this matter might
be divided into two Parts;
1. Facilities might be provided
Or those unfortunate children who
are mentally retarded in. the sense
usually accepted by the public.
that is the subnormal ones whose
intellectual capacities are suffici-
ently below average to constitute
a handicap throughout life, but who
through painstaking care and at-
tention from highly skilled teach-
ers:- would be enabled in the course
of time to care in some measure
for themselves,
A school of this nature might be
erected close to a medical school
where every facility can be offer-
ed for research and study.
2. On the other hand, unfortun-
ately a large number do not come
into this category, but require care
and attention only, in the midstof
pleasant surroundings. These re-
quire an institution where parents
with other normal children in the
family can place :them in the
knowledge that they will be well
looked after, and that other chil-
dren in the family will not suffer -
through the presence in the home
of a sub -normal brother or sister.
This kind of institution could
probably be located at or near
the lake, where fresh air and sun-
shine abound, far removed from
the possibility of being in the path
of an expanding city.
Huron offers all these advantag-
es plus roany more, including:
(a) Central location; I have
tried to dispel the idea that we
are not a part of the Province,
that we are away to one side. We
are away to one side but we are
a part of the provinceand we are
very centrally located in south-
western Ontario:
(b) Good highways within easy
driving distance of all the major
centres of population in Western
Ontario, not alone measured in
miles, but the ease with which
one can drive 100 miles compared
to driving a similar distance near
a city. It might be of interest to
know that we are now so close to
the city of Toronto that whole milk
is being produced in Huron for
distribution in this city.
(c) Btautiful summer play-
ground facilities nearby, and sun-
sets, the like of which are not to
be seen anywhere else in Ontario.
The construction of such a men-
tal institution in Huron would give
a lift to the whole community, and
would be a fulfilment of the prin-
ciple set forth in all our federal -
provincial dealings that I ,mention,
ed at the outset, that the strong
should help the weak, a chain is
only as strong as its weakest link,
and that we cannot have a healthy
economy if one section of the prov-
ince is rich and another poor.
We are not looking for subsidies
or money from the "public trough"
but I feel that the location of an
institution of this nature in Huron
County would serve the same pur-
pose as a shot in the arm to a
founded man who has lost a lot -of
blood. It would be a real •boest to
our economy at a time when it is
greatly needed.

ieve this matter is not settla4,
int in view, of all' the tliscusSiett
afternoon in 000 the
Minister of Ilealth (Mr. Phillipe)
took such a prominent part, eine
nhasizing the importance of water
supply, • sewage disposal and so
forth, all these difficulties will be
overcome if an institution were to
be built in Huron Comity.
We. are, close to the lake, we
have adequate supplies of water
that does not haye to be piped 50
or 100 miles. Aso, the sewage dis-
posal facilities are an easy prob-
lem to overcome, I believe, be-
cause of the sandy natuire of the
soil. Then, as I have already point-
ed out, Huron is centrally located,
it has everything to be desired for
an institution of this kind, and I
conclude these few- remarks by
again submitting to the members
of the government/ that Huron
County should be considered.

Uniformity of traffic signs has
been recognized by traffie authori-
ties throughout the world as one
of the major steps toward reduc-
ing highway accidents. Here, Vicki
Deverill shows samples of the
signs that have been authorized by
Ontario as part of the standardiza-
tion program. They were exhibit-
ed at the recent -convention of the
Ontario Good Roads Association in
Toronto to familiarize county and
township officials with the type of
signs that have been approved.
Made of retro -reflective Material,
the signs show up in headlights
with exactly the same shape, color
and appearance as they have in
daylight: With standardized signs,
traffic authorities say most of the
annoyance and many of the mis-
haps of motoring on unfamiliar
roads or highways would be elim-
inated. Identification by color is
an important part of the program.
