DIAMONDS - WATCHES - GIFTS QUILL TO COMPUTER—Adramatic 146 -year contrast between the Bank of Montreal's first system of handling accounts and its now "Genie" system is shown in this photograph. Here, Miss Marion Ryan compares the B of M's first ledger dated 1817 with the computer which forms the heart of the bank's new "Genie" centre—the flrst fully -integrated auto- matic banking systeln in Canada. The new system goes into operation this week. Mak- ing full use of electronic speeds, Canada's first data processing banking operation of su ch scope combines cheque clear-ing and ledger posting for many of the B of M's Montreal area branches. The centre is the forerunner of a number of similar "Genie" operations scheduled for development by the B of M across Canada in the future. Corporation Studies Small Town Housing Greater urbanization and con- tinued rapid growth set the pattern for Canada's develop- ment today. Two out of every three Canadians live in a town or city of more than 5,000 popu- lation whereas only a few short decades ago half the inhabit- ants lived on the land. Paral- leling this shift from rural areas to towns and cities has been a tremendous growth in popula- tion. The 1961 census showed the population has increased by four million people since 1951. It revealed that most of this growth occurred in and around urban centres, and indicated that increases 'in population and the movement towards towns and cities will continue. The trend towards bigger and more numerous towns and cities is placing heavy demands on housing. In the smaller cen- tres of population for instance, there is a need for good, eco- nomical rental accommodation. In the years ahead, the de- mand for hpusing will become more pressing, more wide- spread. Of the 18.2 million people in Canada in 1961, 71/2 million or 41.8 per cent of the population were in age groups ranging up to 21. This figure alone gives some indication of future housing needs. Impor- tan�t additions to future demand will also result from immigra- tion and the replacement of old- er homes. All these factors as- sure a growing demand for ac• commodation. In such circum- stances, housing must be con- sidered one of our most,critical endeavours. - Much of Canada's housing is SEAFORTH SHOP AND DANCE '�"ak / k • •• • EVERY OTHER ARTICLE IN THE STORE Special Weekend Discount - - 110% SEAFGRTH, ONT.

The Act has already helped many towns and cities obtain invalu- able information on the condi- tion of existing buildings, estab- lish the need for conservation, rehabilitation or redevelopment and the need for additional housing. NHA facilities have also helped thousands of Cana- dians own their own homes and has provided shelter for thou- sands of low-income families and elderly persons. Another section of the Act authorizes Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation to in- sure loans made by approved lending institutions such as banks, life insuranl e and trust and loancompanies for the con- struction of rental housing pro- jects. Because lenders confined most of their activity to major urban centres as opposed to smaller centres, CMHC was em- powered to make direct loans for rental housing. The intent of the move was to ensure that the facilities of the Act would be available in communities in Canada where a need for ren- tal housing . existed that was not being met by lenders oper- ating under the Act. The need, of course, seemed to be more acute in. the small centres of population and it is largely with the interests of these areas in • mind that the CMHC rental loans program was arranged. It was felt the new financing facilities offered ex- cellent opportunities for en- trepreneurs and builders in and around small towns to invest in rental housing projects. CMHC rental loans are made under, the same terms and con- ditions and subject to the same limitations as those upon which a loan may be made by approved lenders under the provisions of the Act. Rental housing loans may be up to 85 per cent of the lending. value of such projects, as determined by CMHC. The Federal housing agency will make direct rental loans if an applicant can estab- lish that he has been unable to proceed with an otherwise ac- ceptable project because of in- ability to obtain financing from approved NHA lenders. In addition to providing a substantial solution to the need for rental accommodation in many small towns, it was thought that the millions of dollars that would be invested on rental housing projects as a result of these loanscould boost employment in the build- ing trades in these localities. To date, the response to the CMHC rental loans program has been below expectation, probab- ly because builders and en- treprenenrs are not yet fully aware of the assistance that is available. As more of them learn of the CMHC rental loans facilities, their participation in the program is expected to in- crease. There are few communities in Canada that can claim to be completely satisfied either. with the state or the supply of their housing. The National Housing Act is not a panacea for hous- ing ills, but it can remedy some of the problems. The Act was especially designed to help communities and individuals alike improve -, general living conditions, and greater use could be made of its provisions as a means of meeting housing needs.• CHINESE THEATRE Recent scholarship indicates that the origins of Chinese theatre may go back about 4000 years. Practically no sceneiw is employed on the traditional Chinese stage. Gorgeous cos- tumes supply the color. The actor who carries a whip is unr derstood to be on horseback. If he paddles with an oar, he is in a boat. If he climbs on a table, he is on a mountaintop. Audiences are skilled in under- standing these conventions. DOLMAGE MILLING CO.
