The tour, sponsored by the federal trade and commerce de- partment, included represent- tives from Lebanon, Jordan, India, Norway, Argentina, Eng land and Paraguay. They were taken on a tour of the plant by resident , Jii.tn K. Sully and later were guests of the company at a dinner in the Redford Hotel.

Dr, D. M. Moogk, 11I.A., assist- ibility of preventing and treat - ant superintendent at the On- ing mental illness. He told the nurses there was a real need for a "sheltered workshop" in Huron County where\ ex -patients would be re- tained in working conditions. "Many mental handicapped people are unable, because of long illness or severe symptoms, to compete., with' well workers in the•labor.inarket," he stated. He also zieported many 'lonely peg ie finch it diliicult to fit into ordrnary social organizations where they must dress well and share responsibilities in the operation of the group. The nurses were. told that in many cities and towns the Can- adian Mental Health Association has organized "half -way clubs" where -0' ex -patients and other:- may ther: may find fellowship and where the atmosphere is relaxed and undemanding. Dr. Moogk - urged ever y one interested in helping those with mental health problems to giye their fullest support to the Mental Health Associ- tario Hospital, Goderich, told the members of the Huron County Chapter of Registered .Nurses Association that if neigh - bars. and fellew workers were willing to put up with unusual behaviour in others, some peo- ple with minor symptoms would recover more quickly and never have to go to mental -hospitals. Speaking at their March meet- ing at the hospital, he 'said that when in spite of the best efforts of all (the family doctor, the minister or teacher) to help the person with his problem, admi-- sion to hospital for treatment is necessary, recovery is spetAl if friends visit and if the family is willing to take the patient home as soon as possible. • Dr. Moogk gave a resum9 ' the "Dymond Report" which outlined plans of the Provincial Department of Health to provide mproved and expanded facil- ities. for the prevention and treatment of mental illness. He noted the place of the Mental Hospital in the Com- munity Health Program' but pointed out there is need for individuals and groups within every communi,ty to share with the professional workers in the mental health field the respons- S, I \,larch 22, repro_:tinting a -small d increase over the actual 01)1.- 1 .'ting, en its of last year: Joan System The board aI-o accepted the wo:king agreement with the Goderich Police Association previously ratified, and auth- or:zed- the secretary to notify th-' secretary -treasurer of the • Ontario, Municipal Employc,'s 'etirement System that the board hr d elected to join the • system.

He was selected from five applicants who appeared before the hoard, namely: Paul McAlliine of Toronto, Willard Morris of Owen Sound, Elgin McNall of Goderich and John Ruxton of Port Elgin. The board granted a travel allowance of $10 each to the unsuccessful candidates to -'-'-cover costs of their trip here. Raise Salaries On' motion -_of_- Judge F'rarik Fingiand and Magistrate- H.

The other board mem- bers remained ---on the present rate. The annual report by Chief Constable -F: Minshall, was pre- sented to the board and accept- ed, and has been 'dealt with in detail in a separate news story in this issue of The Signal - Star.
