The Select Committee studying Ontario's Health Care system has com- pleted three weeks of hearings and with the number of groups and individuals who have expressed an interest in making a submission, it appears that the Com- mittee is going to be hard pressed to report its findings to thea Legislature by mid- October. This Select Committee was the product of a major •co.nfrontation in the Legislation this past spring. At that time Treasurer Darcy McKeough announced in his budget an increase in OHIP premiums at 37.5 per cent which was strongly resisted by the two' Opposition Parties. When an election was threatened over the premium increase, Treasurer McKeough, retreated from his earlier position, offered a much reduced premium in- crease which was ac- cepted and the Legislature referred the entire matter to a Select Committee. The OHIP Select Committee is chaired by the Conservative Member for York East, Dr. Robert Elgie, and being a member of that committee, I thought that I might comment on the hearings to date. I have been pleased with the development of our enquiry as we have already had before us a number of expert wit- nesses who have ex- plained both sides of the premium question. For my part, I feel very strongly that we must find the most fair and reasonable way to finance our health care system. It seems to me that the present premium mechanism has some very unfair and inequitable features about it. The most startling inequity is, of course, that which involves the OHIP subscriber who must pay the entire premium directly. This 'contrast very shar ly with another._ subscriber who may have his or her OHIP premiums paid in full or in part by an employer. Because health care is such an important and fundamental part of our social service system, I feel that no one person should be discriminated against in this way when it comes to financing health care. As one member of the Committee I am in- terested in examining all possible alternatives and the alternatives certainly include a substantial reform of the premium system.; Other alter- natives would involve the. abolition of the premiums and their replacement with a payroll tax deduction or the abolition of premiums and their replacement by a general income tax, provision. It is also possile to shift the burden away from the premiums to some kind of shared base, that would reflect increases in Through the weeklies The St. Marys Journal Argus has reported that the water tower in the town has been designated as a heritage structure. On hand for the historic event were members of the Local Architectural Conservation and Advisory Commission (LACAC) which was iinstrumental• in bringing about the designation as well as obtaining a $12,000 grant from the province which was used to make repairs to the tower. Another small, country store is closing. Last week, the Lucknow Sentinel reported on the selling of the Whitechurch Village Store, which was to be put up on the auction block August 5. As is the case with many other small general stores, Margaret Moore, who operated the store with her husband John, explained to the Sentinel that "people want a convenience store." About 23 families did their winter shopping at the Whitechurch store, but in the summer only three families shopped there exclusively. Wingham's getting ready,- not only for the plowing match, but for the upcoming re -opening of their main street. The Wingham Advance -Times reported that along with official ceremonies, a steak barbecue, specials at the Wingham businesses, a pet show and ° a special flower show will be held for the occasion. The Mitchell Advocate reported that a group of volunteers working under the hoses of the Mitchell Fire t epartment were able to save $50,000 worth of equipment and a barn at the Kim Leonhardt farm, RR 1, Bornholm. About 20 volunteers armed themselves with pitchforks, The Advocate explained, to quickly empty a mow of hay that was in danger of bursting into flames. The fire department was Called out to oversee the work and fans were suspended from' barn rafters to blow methane gas out of the barn before the workers could be overcome by its fumes. ' The Brussels Post has a new look as of last week. The paper has changed to a new column format of six columns. The paper will now have a brighter and more airy appearance and there will be more room for news and ad copy. The Zurich Citizens' News ".• reported that a decision will be coming shortly regarding the plans for the Hay Township Farmer's Mutual Fire Insurance Company's new building The new office is to be located at the in- tersection of Highway 84 at Goshen Street in Zurich. The plans for the new building should be finalized within the next two weeks and that tenders on the proposed building which closed about two weeks ago, were not accepted. The Goderich Signal Star gave its readers actual proof that there are seating problems at the new grandstand that is now being constructed. Through pictures, the Signal showed why work was halted en the structure after it was learned that the track was not visible from all seats in the grandstand. The photographs show an eye level view of the track from both in .the front and ,rear seating areas. From the middle to the rear of the seating area, less of the track is visible. The popular event .of the season, tractor pulls, were scheduled to hit kincardine last , Satur- day. The Kincardine News reported that the town's Kinsmen club was sponsoring the pull which was hoped to bring some 2,000 spectators. Five classes in the out - of -field or stock division were planned as well as two in the modified division and a class for 4 - wheel drive vehicles. The Listowel Banner reported that at least 4,000 people lined the streets of Stratford recently to view. 113 entries in a parade to celebrate Perth County's 125th anniversary.

The Huron Expositor reported that the Kit- chener -Waterloo Record has expanded its cir- culation and coverage into the Seaforth area. The Record, an in- dependently owned paper, has six sub- scribers in Seaforth now and a number of other Seaforth residents have indicated that they will take the paper in the winter months. David Kunder will act as carrier boy as well as correspondent for the events in the area. As well,' Frances Barrick of Goderich has been hired as the Huron County correspondent. She will cover county council and hoard of education meetings regularly as well as report on news of county -wide interest. The Exeter Times - Advocate reported that • provincial leader Michael Cassidy paid a brief visit to the Fleck Manufac- turing plant in Huron Park recently. . Cassidy went on a walk around the plant, with about 15 of the strike - supporters and in an address said to them "the eyes of Ontario are watching you" and what the striking workers are doing here in aiding the cause of labour across the province. Carter's expand After 10 prosperous years as the owner of Carter's West End Garage, at 215 Huron Street, in Clinton, Harvey Carter has expanded his business to become a Superior Muffler dealer. With over 350 dealers in Canada after just one year, Superior Muffler is the largest muffler network in the world. They are highly suc- cessful in lip. t xhaust system repair business because of their quality service and products, and especially because they offer a lifetime guarantee that not one more penny will be spent by the customer for parts or labour after his first exhaust system repair. This is the only guarantee of'its kind. personal options. This is what the committee will be-„ entertaining for the next several weeks.

I would certainly encourage any local resident who has strong views about these mat- ters relating to the health care system to com- municate them to me so that they can he taken into consideration during the course of this enquiry. i zehrs BONE IN FULL CUT ROUND STEAK PERSONALS Mrs. Hilda Beer and daughter Mrs. Ralph MacArthur of Edmonton returned from a pleasant holiday in Bermuda.
