At one time defective but use- able tires were marked "Reject" and sold for use on slow moving vehicles, where they would not pose any hazard, says the Ontario Safety League. However, it was found that unscrupulous opera- tors were buffing the word off the tires and selling them for regular automobile use. Now, the tire in- dustry destroys . all defective products.

(HURON -BRUCE) Report from Queen's Park This week the hottest issue before the House was the Work- men's Compensation Board which apparently has dropped at least $560,000 in penalties against General Motors and Ford during the past two years. The penalties for poor safety. conditions were cancelled after the two firms withdrew from a group of industries planning an attack on the Board's efficiency OTHER JUDO ENTHUSIASTS are Murray Metcalfe and Andrew Heim who try out different, holds while waiting their turn on the mat. -Staff Photo. and fairness The two had helped to organize the lobby. The Workmen's Compensation Board presented Ford with a $260,206 bill two weeks after the lobby was formed and word went out that G.M. was next with a $300.000 penalty. The penalties were cancelled nine months later, on appeal, when Ford promised it would improve its safety program. However, the implication has been left that W.C.B. withdrew the penalties provided that G.M. and Ford would drop their lobby against the Board. Meanwhile Dalton Bales, Ontario's Attorney General, has denied that a deal was made with a former vice-chairman of the Workmen's Compensation Board, by which the man was paid full salary for two years after he resigned. Mr. Bales said Mr. Cauley was paid about $54,000 when he resigned from the .W.C.B., but this was not salary it was for accumulated sick . credits and holidays which Mr. Cauley hadn't taken in his 25 years with the Board. Mr. Cauley has said he was paid $62,000 for 28 months in which he' didn't work. He is wait- ing for a cheque for about $28,580 to cover 29 weeks' holiday pay plus the six months' maximum accumulated sick leave benefits. The Workmen's Compensation Board has now been called to come. before the Natural Res- ources Committee on the 29th March to explain' matters associated with these 'two inci- dents. I. took part ' in the. Throne Debate this week,' and this af- forded me an opportunity to speak on the need fdr passenger rail, service into our' part of the country. Most people find the bus ser- vice totally. unsatisfactory and the railway provides the only other means of public transporta- tion. I suggested if the Government' of Canada was worried about the extent to which it would have to LEARNING THE basics of.a defense against a stick attack are Cathy'Foxton and Susan Rude, two of a dozen girls meeting with the judo class at the high school. —Staff Photo.

I also pointed out that in 1970, of . the 921 new medical doctors registered to practice in Ontario only 37 per, cent were Ontario graduates. Over 50 per cent, of the new M.D.s came in from other countries while .the remainder came from other provinces. At the same time, in 1969 Ontario Medical ,Schools rejected 36 per cent of applicants whom they considered acceptable but for whom there were no places. Close to 200 Ontario students were denied this professional educa- tion for which they were con- sidered qualified. It is obvious that Ontario has elected to provide increased medical, manpower needs through immigration. I find this totally unacceptable and I hope the province will take steps to correct the , 'situation im- mediately. The Hon. James A. C. Auld, Minister of ' the Environment, and Hugh Edighoffer, M,P.P. for Perth, announce the approval of a provincial grant of $5,,000 to the Maitland Valley Conservation Authority for the Galbraith Con- servation Area. This conservation area com- prises some 100 acres of land in the Township of Mornington and is located on the Elma-Morning- ton Township boundary, apprpxi- mately four miles south` ,f High- way 86. During the current year the authority is proposing 'to esta- blish camp sites, improve sani- tary anitary facilities, pond and service road and carry, out other general development work. All member municipalities will bear the authority's share of the cost.

Members of the Turnberry Council at their regular meeting last week, endorsed the action being taken by the Federation Of Agriculture regarding a larger area of toll-free telephone serv- ice. The tender of Joe Kerr Ltd. for supplying, crushing, hauling and spreading gravel, was accepted. Council members also agreed to the sale of lots in the village of Blueiale to John VanCamp of Belgrave. Owing to the changes made in the Warble Fly Control Act, it was decided to discontinue the spraying of cattle in Turnberry Township. General and road accounts of '$8029.58 were approved and or- dered paid.
