The Goderich Signal-Star, 1974-11-14, Page 30. Our readers write..... (continued from page 2) that everyone also keep in mind ° the point that, as indicated in the' 'working document by Minister of National Health. and Welfare, Mark Lalonde, A New Perspective on the Health of Canadians, "The annual rate of cost escalation has been bet- ween 12 percent and 16 per- cent, which is,far in excess of the economic growth of the country; if unchecked, health pare costs will soon be beyond the capacity of 'society to finance them." Also, according to the Lalonde document, "it is estimated that about half the burden of. illness is psychological in origin and this proportion is growing." Under the current Ontario Hospital Insurance Plan it is profitable - for physicians to spend a great deal of their valuable time and use expensive hospital facilities. treating such illnesses, many of which could be cared for equally as well in the com- munity by other professions, such as nurses, so.cial workers, and psychologists, at far less expense to the taxpayers. One proposal,in the Mustard Report is• a group delivery of services including such. professions as those mentioned above ' along with the physicians.. For such a system to work, the report indicates that the professionals 'frust put the,_, problem . of ^Fheaith—care delivery before their -,profession -- end respect the knowledge of others and their right to par- ticipate. • A hope was expressed that the attitude of the professional ass.ociations would help in this respect. obviously this is not the case where the Ontario Medical Association is concer- ned (also from the October 31st Signal -Star publication). It is not difficult to understand the animosity , of the medical profession towards the Mustard Report when one considers the. financial implications it has for the physicians. I do 'not wish to state that the points Dr. Mills makes are inaccurate and should be ignored. But, I would like to suggest that 'before everyone hurries to rally around his flag and reject the Mustard Report, they look carefully at that flag and make certain that it is the maple leaf they see there and not the snake entwined symbol of the medical profession.

I think of all the used postage stamps that are needlessly discarded. .These seemingly worthless articles, from any country,°are sold in bulk by the Scarboro Fathers, to stamp dealers, to help finance mission • projects throughout the worid. In 10 months I have received over 100 lbs. of cancelled postage stamps, in small quan- tities, in very large quantities, from schools, service clubs, companies, individuals etc. Alley add up . quickly if everyone collects them for me. It „hardly takes a second to rip the used postage stamps off of an envelope leaving a bit of paper around it. • • This can be YOUR way of - helping the world's poor without costing YOU a lot of time or money.

Issue not dead Dear Editor, Dding May Of 1972, the very important Transport Commit- tee ,of the •House of Commons conducted thorough, and exten- si .'e public hs arings throughout Southwestern Ontario tin the need, the desire for, and ad- visability of restored rail passenger service in our area. The response from citizens in our area was swift and Com- plete, and the good M.P.'s returned to Ottawa to table an unanimous report. This unanimous recommen- dation of the Committee was quote 'That all rail passenger service discontinued in Nov. 1970 be re -instated im- •mediately.' The majority of the Transport Committee were Liberal members. No govern- ment (or cabinet) action followed -this recommendation. Following , 197.2 Summer recess, Parliament was dissolved, a general election called, and a minority Liberal government was returned to of- fice. Once again, no action on the recommendation was un- dertaken. Now, with a majority Liberal Goyernment re-elected, we believe we -have the right to ask the Prime Minister, and 4Fthe Minister 'of' Transport a . few questions, and in return to receive some straight -forward; yes or no, black and white an- swers. 1 Why would' the Govern- ment spend hundreds of thousands of dollar`s on public , rail: hearings for our area, if it ,did not intend' to take action? 2. Is, not. the running and control, of our„ railways a Federal responsibility?. 3: Are not vital issues such as preservation of the ecology, the control of pollution, rising traf- fic fatalities, skyrocketing costs of highway construction and maintenance sufficient reasons for immediate implementation of the Transport Committee ° recommendation of June 1'972? - 4. When are we going to get honest -to -goodness, yes or no, -black and white answers, in- stead of evasive tactics or stony silence? You, as a tax -paying resident of this area, have the right and • privilege of asking the., Prime Minister and the Minister of Transport these questions throijgh your own M.P.. Correspondence to M.P.'s* in Canada's Parliament ;mailed postage -free: Remember; with the total elimination of rail passenger service . in this area,' we have become second-class citizens.

It is the "administration itself that offers one of the most fruitful areas for economies. I feel that education is essen- tially the business of the tax- payer, especially parents and their children. There is nothing too technical or obscure about education that the •average citizen cannot readily un`der- stand.•The'people must"be kept .informed, have available to them through the press and other media the debate and, decisions reached at Board meetings. The Board is supposed to represent the people, but if the people do not know what their board members say, how they vote, ^or whether they are even attending the meeting, then this representation becomes an illusion. I have given my energy and dedication in the classroom to many generations of Colborne and Goderich township students. I would now ask that I be given `the opportunity to continue to strive for educational quality at reasonable cost by representing these townships on the ,Huron County Board of Education. Donald S. McKee Fort Erie,. Ontario, Stabilize prices ti Dear -Editor, The National Union has initiated a plan of action to take place right across Canada to focus attention to the need of a stabilized price for farm products. At the present time there is a crisis in the red meat industry, and every crisps the farmers go through is Worse than the last. one._ Cow -calf operators need imrpediate help as these far- mers have no facilities to house their calves•through the winter. The N.F.U. does not condone the slaughter of calves. Most farmers feel it is a ridiculous situation that they do not receive an adequate in= come for 'producing food in a world that is suffering from hunger. Ottawa has been approached, and there will be demon- strations in capitals across Canada to press the Govern-' ments to take caltner meat off the ,market and make it available • where needed. The long term goal of the N.F.U,- is to establish a national meat authority which would have'the authority to control imports. Research has shown • that production and"consumption of meat in Canada is about equal. Imports make the -"surplus". G.
