Scores Triumph
1. No4roning .
A Canadian product has scored a
triumph in a field in ' which the
United States has always been
considered the leader—the develap-
ment Of "wash and wear" fabrics,
The Velar first fabric to be grant-
ed ah. 'unqualified no Ironing ap-
proval by the 'United Statta Test-
ing Company is a terylene trieot
produced in Galt, Ontario, 'The
testing laboratory has given mini-
mum care rating to many fabrics
but it has never before been able
to vouch for a fabric as requiring
no ironing whatsoever,
The continent's top wash-and-
wear' fabric is a distinctively Can..
adian development and nothing
comparable has yet been produced
in the 'United States, Since the
cloth was introduced in 1056, men's
terylene tricot shirts in white or
with a fine stripe of colored .nylon
have become well-known from
coast to coast and women and
children have been wearing striped
tricot dresses and blouses In a,
wide variety of styles.
Recently, the fabric-maker de-
cided to see how this Canadian
Success would stack up against
fabrics produced south of the
border. Sample garments were sub-
mitted to the testing 'company. The
verdict wits that the fabric per-
formed better 'without Ironing than
any Material ever tested, It can be

I do •kelieve, however, that this

vince-wide 'basis,. .
The haphazard manner in which
Ulm 'matter is now .handled results
hot only in pure confusion but in
scores of instances extreme incon-
venience and in fact . hardship,
There are periods of several weeks
both spring and fall, where pro-
bably half the municipalities in

Mg time While others are on 'stan-

uncommon for the older children
hi a family 'to be attending school
in town which is on standard time
while the younger children attend
public school in a municipality
which o is still on daylight ;time or
,vice versa,. The •extreme incon-
venience of such a situation will,
I am sure, be obvious' to all Hon.
Members and may I assure you,
Mr. Speaker, there are many other
Inconveniences with which all of
us are quite familiar.
Mr. Speaker, Lit e foregoing
pr'om'pts me to ask the following
questions:
(1) Have the municipalities the
authority to set or change time
standards?
(2) Hag the 'Legislature or We
Government any authority or Jur-
isdiebion in the mattes'?
(3), In any event has the Govern-
ment considered a course of action
In response to the countless tem-
'talons' which have bean submitted
to many ,:Hen, Members .and turn.
sub/rated to the Hon, Provincial
Secretary?
May 1, Mr, Speaker, express: the
epinien that this is a matter that
warrants careful consideration and
appropriate action MI the part of

Mr. Speaker:
Before the. orders 'of the day I

some , information on a Matter
which I ans. convinced is of great
co.:Mein h very considerable
number of people Ontario, par-
ticularly, in the rural sections ,of the
Province. '
I refer to the confusing and al-

people of ,thlo Province 'for many
years and 'appears likely to do so
