Zurich Citizens News, 1974-05-23, Page 13THURSDAY, MAY 23, 1974 Queens Park Ontario Provincial Police are investigating Toronto lawyer, Joseph Burnett's involvement in the potato wholesale busin- ess in Metro Toronto, solicitor general Geroge Kerr, indicated in the Legislature. Mr. Kerr said Mr. Burnett's business operations are also part of an investigation into laundering of money in Toronto. Appar- ently the three largest potato wholesale campanies in the Toronto area have closed corp- orate ties and farmers have complained they cannot get a fiar price in dealing with them. Mr. Burnett owns a sudbury fruit company and lent $600, 000. to Rocco and Gordon Cap- puccitty, the largest dealers in Ontario grown potatoes in the Metro Area. Mr. Kerr said the investigation into the potato industry does not necessary include just Mr. Burnett. Ile said it might lead to charges under the combines investigat- ion act. Three major Oil Companies have increased gasoline prices to dealers by more than 9¢ a gallon which will probably wear a 10¢ increase at the minimum to Ontario's motorists. Premier William Davis said there are no plans to review or stall the increase in gasoline reftstsewelencommelanrsientsoiraileoweielmumaNyair DRIVE®1 THEATRE FRI. & SAT.

It was estimated that the stock of oil and oil products produced at the old price of $4.00 a barrel for oil at the well head would last until May. Mr. Davis told the legislature he found it hard to understand an increase beyond the estim- ated 7¢ that was agreed to at the Ottawa conference six weeks ago. Ontario residents pay a total of $44 million for each 1¢ increase in the price of a ZURICH CITIZENS NEWS gallon of gasoline and fuel. The Provincial Tax on gasoline is 19¢ a gallon, The Ontario government has changed its mind for the second time and decided denturists should be allowed to work indep- endent of supervision by dentists if they passed qualifying exam- inations. Health Minister Frank Miller said that the denturists who wrote the examination to qualify to work under dentists now would be able to work indep endently. However, they will have to pass upgrading examin- ations when they are set. Dent- ure Therapists will riot be allowec to make partial dentures except under dentists supervision. They will be restricted to full upper and lower plates for fitting in a mouth where no Teeth remain in the upper or lower jaw or both. Making a partial denture is a much more complicated procedure than making a full plate according to Mr. Miller, because of possible problems with adjacent teeth and so this work should be supervised by a ' dentist. Ontario Hydro is to be allow- ed to expropriate certain lands required for relocation of a Canadian Pacific Rail Line to make way for the controversial dam near Arnprior. However, it has been refused the go ahead it sought to acquire other land it needed to use only during the dam construction and for a trans mission line for which hydro had no firm plan. Hydro may re -apply for expropriation of further land when it can more precisely state how much land it needs and where the trans- mission line will be built. Other wise the way is cleared for the $50 million dam. Environrnent Minister, Will - PAGE 13 'lam Newman, confirmed the enquiry officer's findings that hydro's evidence about how much land it needed and for what purposes was vague and unconvincing.
