There is evidence that the spectre of a world con- sumed by the mouths of its own people may never .come to pass. With the world's population now • more than three billion, and increasing so rapidly that this figure will double in the next 35 years, a reversal 'of these trends would be the greatest news of our lifetime. And indeed, such a reversal, still yet barely noticeable, ap- pears to be now in the making. The past year has seen a near -revolution in general ac- ceptance of the need for birth control around the world. The birth Fate in the United States and Canada already has dropped, and recent studies have confirmed that in even Roman Catholic Quebec, the day of the large family has passed. The birth control revolution is now being won on • •the po- litical and religious fronts all around the world. It has al- ready been won on the private family front in North America, olics, practise family planning aided by birth control devices. Although the Roman Catholic Church has not yet softened its opposition to birth control among its own people, a subtl: but ...vastly significant change, has already occurred in the at- titudes of leading Catholic pre- lates.

Phone 527-1410 Seaforth wherethe vast proportion of the population, including Cath - dissemination of birth control information, -even to non -Catlin - lies, the Church is now care- fully avoiding efforts to impose its .strictures on other faiths. ' When the U.S. Supreme Court struck down Connecticut's anti - birth control law, Cardinal Cushing, of Boston, announced' that he would not oppose re- peal of a similar law in Massa- chusetts. "I will make no ef- fort to impose my opinion on others," he said. Catholics are now awaiting the,. report of a commission ap- pointed by Pope Paul VI to re- examine the Church's teachings in this area. At present, the Church sanctions only the rhythm method - abstinence during t woman's fertility periods. But eye if Roman • Catholic teachings remain unchanged, the fact that the Church ap- pears to no lodger oppose birth control by others relieves West- ern governments of tremendous political pressure. It • is this . spirit which has enabled the U.S. to initiate birth control aid abroad with- out running into political dan- gers at home. In becoming the first U.S. President topublicly support birth control, President John- son recently 'urged Congress: "Let' us., act on the fact that less than $5 invested in popu- lation control is worth $100 in- vested in ,economic growth." The wrld's most. crucial populatio problems are in La- tin America and Asia. In Cath- olic Latin America; -were the population problems are in La - while production increased on- ly four per cent in the past' decade -' mobile birth control units are roving through native villages. In India, the government has undertaken a campaign to bring the birth rate down from its turret level of 40 per thou- sand to 25 per thousand, com- parable, to the Canadian rate. The oral contraceptive pill (developed by a Catholic physi- cian) is the main factor in the increased acceptance of birth control, although India is. put - ting its. hopes on the IUD' (in- trauterine device) which is ev- en simpler, cheaper and more reliable. China, too, has em- barked• on a birth control pro- gram. There is now hope that world population in this century may level off at around five billion, and that it may thereafter be kept within tolerable limits. FALL FAIR. DATES Bayfield ,,.

' whey • pro, ducers for wheat sold during the past crop year (July 1st, 1904, to June 30, 1965), it was announced by the Ontario `Wheat Producers' Marketing Board. Board chairman R, T. Bol- ton, RR 1, Seaforth, said the auditors' report received at a board meeting held in Toronto August 19th, disclosed that last year's stabilization fund was completely exhausted by costs incurred in disposal of the largest volume of •surplus wheat ever handled by the board in one year. Mr. Bolton said this is the sec- ond consecutive year in which a rebate could not be„made. "The year previous the board handled nearly 3,500,000- bush- els of surplus wheat..anc( found that the 9• cent per bushel sta- bilization fund levy then in ef- fect ffest was inadequate to cover costs." "As a result," Mr. Bolton said, "we tried to provide • a safety measure by increasing the levy to 15 cents per bushel for much needed added collater- al for loans and in the event that a still greater volume would have to be taken off the market by the board." "It is now obvious," the board official said, "that our decision was well founded because the board was required to purchase and in turn export more than 5,000,000 bushels out of last, year's crgp." gsti ales' pibce.total, pr u6- tion of ,flntario winter wheat last year (1964) at .18,5Q0,Q Q bushels, Rf which nearly 14, •.000,900 bushels were, sel4 >f y producers. The 5,000,000 bushel surplus handled by the beard, came out Of the 14,000,000 bushels sold. by producers.• • The stabilizationfund'is Matte up by au accumulation of 15 cents per bushel deducted on all wheat sold• by producers and it is out `ef -this 'fund that 'the costs of purchasing, handling and exporting are paid by ,the board. ,: A further one cent per bush- el licence fee is deducted on all wheat sold by producers to cov- er board administrative costs, making a total deduction of 16 cents per bushel, Mt. Bolton said "it was un- fortunate that no rebate could be made, but in consideration of all the facts,. including a 20 cent drop in the world wheat price during the marketing year which had a definite ill -effect on our price for export, we have come through' a very try- ing . and complicated year,': ' Mr.. Bolton . also announced that plans have been set for the Ontario Wheat Producers' Marketing, Board annual meet- ing, to be held in.

Township of Tuckersmith School Area Board IVAN FORSYTH, Secretary e.Canada Pension:Plim. ,nil its benefits: Here is what the Canada Pension Plan will do for people like Thor Andersen, a farmerwho works for. himself and makes $4,000,a year. The Andersens are both aged 45 and have no family. If Thor's earnings continue at $4,000.a year • until he reaches age 65, he can look forward to a retirement pension of $83.33 a month from the Plan. This, plus the $75 each Mr. and Mrs. Andersen will receive from Old Ape Security, will give them a total of $233.33 a month --equal to 70% of Thor's previous average earnings. If Thor becomes disabled anytime after 1970, having contributed until his disability began, he will -get a disability pension of $87.50 a month. This will continue until he becomes 65 when he will receive his retirement and Old Age Security pensions.' Should Thor die anytime after 1967, having contributed until his death, his wife will receive a widow's pension of $56.25 , - a month until she becomes 65. • From that on she will get $125 a month -$50 from the Plan. and $75 from Old Age Security. At• the time of Thor's death Mrs. Andersen will be entitled to a lump sum payment of $500. • All benefits under the Plan will maintain their value. The actual benefits payable will probably be higher than those given here since benefits will be adjusted to meet changes in living costs and in wage levels before they are paid and changes in living costs after they Become payable. . What will the Plan cost you? If you, like Thor, in a particular year, have self-employed earnings of $4,000 you will pay $122.40 in instalments, in the same way you pay income talk This advertisement is one of a series -which relates some of the important benefits of the Canada Pension Plah to individual circumstances.
