pause to think a bit doesn't it.
All the clamour to keep up with
the cost of inflation is not really
fair. If the cost of food rises by
ten percent, this means that the
pensioners' cost of living in-
creases by the whole ten percent,
for that is where his disposable
income goes.
For a member of parliament,
who makes $18,000, his food cost
will go up the same ten percent,
but this applies only to, say one
third of his income, or three and
one third of one percent, That's
quite a difference.

and on food purchasing were
done by the OFA research
department. It shows that in 1960
the food purchased across the
country was 21.6 percent of
disposable income. This per-
centage dropped steadily to its
lowest point in 1971 when it was
17.4 percent.
After this it began rising to 15.2
percent in 1973,stillwell below all
years before 1968, It cost more to
eat in restaurants than to eat at
home. Yet the money spent to eat
out rose from 15 to 18 percent of
the disposable income. Gives one

"FREE ESTIMATES"
By JACK RIDDELL. M.P.P,
Supplementary estimates
providing for the spending of an
additional $496 million by the
provincial government in the
current financial year were
presented to the Legislature this
week.
They show that the province will
need that amount over and above
the 8.3 billion listed in the April
budget to pay for its various
programs until the end of March
1975.
Much of the increased spending
is by the Health and Education
Ministries.
The total cash deficit put at
$847 million on October 31st could
rise to about $900 million by the
end of the year according to some
Treasury estimates.
A new Ministry of Culture and
Recreation is to be established by
the Ontario Government.
Legislation is expected soon to
protect buildings that are of
historic or architectural value.
The Ministry of Culture and
Recreation will inherit certain
responsibilities from the
established College and
Universities and Community and
Social Services Ministries.
The Education Act 1974 was
passed this week and among its
274 sections is section 49 which
permits parents of children at-
tending a public or secondary
school to visit the schoq at any
time, The same privilege is ex-
tended to Members of
Parliament and Clergymen to
visit any school within their
constituency or district as the
case may be.
The idea behind this is that
parents do have the right to visit
educational facilities where their
children are being educated and
for which they are paying.
Beer and soft dfink cans with
null tab openers will be replaced
by push ppen cans within a year
according to Environment
Minister Wm. Newman, , the
environmentalists are unhappy,
however that he refused to ban
the cans entirely.
Mr. Newman issued a
statement of policy in tabling the
1258 page final report of the Solid
Waste Task Force in the
Legislature.
What Mr. Newman will not
accept are the recommendations
in the report that retailers be
required PI carry returnable soft
drink containers of the same
brands and sizes they now carry
in non- returnables and the
suggestion that deposits on beer
bottles be increased. Over 96
percent of beer bottles are
returned now.
Mr, Newman said the
Government position on banning
non returnable containers
"blends positive improvements
to our environment with the
minimum disruption to em-
ployment, investment and
minimum additional cost to the
consumer."
He further went on to say that
next year he intended to sit down
with the industry and work it out.
The House adjourned this week
for the Christmas recess.
snowmobiler is injured, Gordon
Hill, president of the Ontario
Federation of Agriculture, said
today.
The new legislation, introduced
in the Ontario Legislature early
this month, is a tough piece of
legislation that deserves to be
passed, Hill says.
OFA strongly advocated such
protection before the
Legislature's Select Committee
on motorized snow vehicles and
all-terrain vehicles.
"We hope the Bill won't be
watered down on second reading
which is expected next week,"
Hill says.
Under Bill 161 a snowmobiler
will be required to obtain written
permission from the owner or
occupier private property
before he enters that property,
Failure to obtain written
permission will represent a
provincial offence of trespass in
the absence of any lawful excuse.
Upon request of the property
owner or occupier the
snowmobile operator will be
required to stop, identify himself,
and produce his licence as well as
written permission to cross the
property.
Where a complaint of trespass.
is made, the Crown will assume
responsibility for investigation
and prosecution.
The new legislation will ensure
that a property owner or tenant is
not liable for injury to a
snowmobiler who is either a
trespasser or a tolerated, but
uninvited, person. The latter
might have been given verbal
permission to cross the land but
not-an.invited or paying guest.
Any snowmobiler who
trespasses will be liable to a fine
of up to $500.
"From now on a snowmobiler
had better know where he is at all
times," Hill says. "The old ex-
cuse of saying he did not know he
was on private property, won't
wash any longer."

Contemplating changes in
By ADRIAN VOS
We are pleased to note that the
Ontario Government at last is
lirtening to farmers' complaints
that, while the erection of
livestock buildings is limited in
regard to distance to dwellings,
no limit is placed on the erection
of dwellings in relation to
distance to livestock buildings.
Some farms were limited in
expansion of their operations
because someone sold a piece of
land and the buyer put up a
house, and then started com-
plaining about the good country
air not being agreeable with his
city nostrils.
Change is on the way, the
Ontario government is drafting
legislation to make a' house
subject to the same regulations
as a livestock unit. It took a long
time, as is usual with govern-
ments, but many a farmer will
feel more secure in the
knowledge that his livelihood is
no longer threatened by this kind
of intrusion.

figures on dispensable income
