Here in.CYnatia women represent Blase to half of all post -secondary students - a higher:;proport-•. ion even than in'the United States. Over the past two decades, OECD countries have en- joyed industrial productivity increases of over 4 per cent. annually. However, vcr, when the growing; .-service-orientation in family expenditures is taken into account, it is not at all clear that their own demands for manufactured goods will grow fast enough' to keep pace with their growing labour forces. If this proves to be the case, the implication is that most OECD nations including Canada will be forced to broaden their reliance ori international trade and look to trider markets " for their industrial output. The conclusion reached by Mr.-renness• is that with the evolution to service-oriented economies, increasing num- , um, bers o.f the labour force will have non -permanent jobs, either from their own Indin'. ations, the dictates • of con- sumer demands. or 'simply the .Competitive pressures of wage costs. Obviously; ser- vices Cannot be. stockpiled, as can material goods,, . and. many demands for services involve daily. weekly or seas- onal peaks or troughs which: in turn result in: correspond- ing orresPond-ing ebbs and 'flows of jobs. Therefore; as basic wage rates rise, entrepreneurs, will almost certainly find it more economical to use part-time help, or to lease workers in order to avoid the overhead, costs of regular employees. Who winds up in these "secondary jobs"? Usually those with the Least bargain- ing power in the labour market, the least interest in a permanent: career, : or the least qualified. Often this: means %omen, particularly 'married women, and young people. Mr. Jenness has been a senior Economic Council staff member since 1973.

Reasons include:' speeding, inexperience, inattention and alcohol. In multi-caraccidents, the same reasons apply, but following too closely.,' ' . turning improperly and: failing to stop aggravate the problem.. To help reduce this dramatic increase in accidents, radar will be used more extensively in HuronCounty, says the police report. . Speeding fines have. been elevated to curb accidents, and because liquor abuse is a factor in these high statistics; • no out-of-court settlements will be allowed for minors charged with liquor offences,' and fines have been raised from S54• to 5104, A11» O:P.P:' letachements-- in Huron County are experiencing increased liquor violations andsome record increases of 100 per cent over the same ...period last year, the report. says. The following example illustrates the change in fines: If you are driving with open beer in your car and driving 120 kilometres in an 80 kilometres zone your fine would be 5100. plus $4 cost for the , liquor and $100 plus 53 costs for speeding; n to alli t g 5207, plus 6 demerit points, against your licence.
