From me to you
Will you ever know what hit
by Rhea Hamilton
"On March 19 in Amsterdam
more than 50,000 people part-
icipated in an international
demonstration against the in-
troduction and production of the
neutron bomb. The march
organized by the Netherlands
Stop the Neutron Bomb group
was preceded by an international
colloquium of 1,500 representives
from Eastern and Western
Europe and eight international
organizations, S
The demonstration marked a
climax in the largest anti -
armament movement Holland has
know since the War. Nearly 1,2
million signatures decrying the
neutron bomb have been col-
lected, Several speakers at the
final meeting emphasized the
need for international action and
cited the Dutch movement as an
example and stimulus for action
elsewhere."
excerpt from "de Volkskrant,"
Amsterdam (independent)
Mar, 20 in Atlas May '78.
Now this may not seem an
unusual way to start a personal
column to the readers of the Blyth
Standard but I feel there is
something here for everyone who
cares about the life around them,
if not for the themselves then for
their children, The neutron bomb
is now a reality in many
countries around the world people
are praying and uniting together
to stop it.
The neutron bomb is the 'Clean
Bomb,' and works on the bow and
arrow theory. the bomb -actually a
shell or missile warhead - is a
nuclear device in which the
explosive energy is mostly re

leased as neutron radiation rather
than heat and blast. Like the
arrow it kills people sometimes
slowly and painfuly. Unlike the
' arrow it penetrates buildings and
tanks to do so.
But beyond an immediate blast
arca of few hundred yards across,
it leaves buildings intact wile
releasing an invisible bonib-
ardment of neutron radiation
which causes damage to the
mammalian central nervous
system -that's us.
All previous notions of nuclear
war were so brutal and destruct-
ive that the world powers he-
sitated to put holocaust like that
on the surface of our planet yet
they are ready to stock pile these
weapons now.
- The "benefit" of the neutron
bonbis that it leaves buildings and
industries intact and just
eliminates the "human enemy".
Even soldiers in tanks and
shelters would be annihilated,
In the words of Gen. Johannes
Steinhoff, former chairman Qf
NATO's Military Committee, the
new weapon "makes the un-
thinkable conceivable".
The bomb is by no means
merciful for these innocent of
war. Soldiers are of course
required to perform their duties
until they die, and the clean
tactical value of the neutron bomb
seems to be that it knocks the
enemy out of their tanks thus
eliminating the possibility of, a
breakthrough. There arc the
quick dead (7%) and the quick
down (9%) and 40% who either
go down and then get up again to
function abnormally and un-
predictably or who go down
slowly with increasing disability
and impairment.
And then there is the re-
mainder who will suffer radiation
sickness and damage that will
never heal. This "clean'' weapon
will leave effects later of blind-
ness, cancer, impotence, and
early death.
The word clean comes from the
military definition "that which is
of no importance to the course of
the battle is of no significance."
Now many of you may say that
this is, fine and dandy but what
has it got to do with us in good old
Canda? NATO, of which Canada
is a member, has promoted the
development of the neutron

bomb, even going so far as to
have smaller versions created for
the guns and missile launchers.
Military leaders of the world
have appealed to NATO to adopt
the weapon but two things have
happened in the mean time..
1. Soviet power has grown; 2.
The military's enthusiasm for the
neutron bomb is by no means
shared by others.
Before the Soviets had ad-
vanced to this point, the west had
viewed the neutron bomb as a
clean and smaller weapon to use.
But the weapon here is no longer
simply an defensive alternative. It
disturbs the balance of power and
makes it vunerable to public
opinion.
In recent months the press
around the world have played the
issue up and thus NATO has not
voted in favour of the bomb, and
U.S. President Carter did not
approve its production.
Although the weapon remains
in limbo now, there will be a time
when the neutron bomb will
require a decision.
Inorder to have the only right
decision made we must all make
known the distate we have for
such a dehabilitiating weapon.
This is latest development which
makes nuclear warfare more
realistic. To believe that the bomb
would be kept in storage would be
to believe in fairy tales, Can we
afford to be childish when so
much is at stake?

Parking problem
Shoppers are always a welcome sight in any village
or town, but in Blyth the shopper may find it hard to
park his or her vehicle in order to get in and shop.
From the Board of Trade recently came a plea for
the erection of signs limiting parking time along the
business section of Queen Street. The thought is well
taken but maybe the members of the board of trade
should police themselves as they are among thea'
greatest offenders.
So many times at nine in the morning you can see
shop owners and employees park their cars or trucks
in front of their businesses. Looking down the street
at the same situation in front of their neighbour's
store it's easy to regret the loss of the parking space.
But how many do you see righting the situation by
moving their vehicles down one block to the
convenient parking spot located across from the post
office on the corner of Queen and Drummond
Streets?
The idea of having the main street free for parking
is not only for the local shoppers but also for out of
towners coming through. If travellers spot something
of interest and feel the urge to stop, unless there is
an easy spot to pull into they will keep on driving.
The other argument is that not to have any cars on
the main street gives the village a ghost town
appearance. Shoppers have a tendency to keep away
from unpopular locations and lack of traffic is
sometimes taken as an indication of slow business.
Depending upon the action taken by the ministry
of transportation and communications (Queen Street
is a highway under their jurisdiction) as to whether
the signs will be erected it will be interesting to see
how effective they turn out to be.
Maybe the main street offenders will take the
problem to heart and try to rectify the situation
without strict no parking enforcement being
necessary.
To the Editor:
Co-operation required
I would like to enlist your co-operation again this year in
assisting to carry out a research program 'on Ruffed Grouse
supported by the Ministry of Natural Resources, If you could bring
the following information to the attention of your readers, I
would be most appreciative.
As part of a continuing research program on Ruffed Grouse at
the University of Guelph, we are again attempting to collect a
sample of eggs from the wild. The eggs are required to provide
grouse for use in the research project.
Because of the great difficulty in locating nests, it is necessary
to have the co-operation of as many people as possible. Anyone
locating a nest within 200 km. (125 miles) of Guelph is asked to
mark the location, but not to disturb the nest. He should contact
us by phoning collect to: Betty Campbell (519) 824-4120 ext. 2703
during office hours. At other times, call collect to: A. L. A.
Middleton (519) 836-3033 or Allan Garbutt (519) 836.5346.
We will come and pick up the eggs as soon as possible, and
%%ill pay the locator one dollar per egg for his trouble.
The number of eggs collected in an area will not be sufficient
to harm the local grouse population. All captive birds are, of
Lours°, given the best possible care,
Your co-operation last year was most appreciated. The birds
raised from eggs we collected have allowed us to make a number
of significant findings.
Thank you for your co-operation.

Behind the scenes
By Keith Roulston
My red neck is showing
1 guess my red neck is sticking out again,
but the latest proposal for law reform has me
a little upset.
There's a good deal of concern today about
child beating and I'm the first t0 admit that it
isa terrible problem. I've known some parents
with vicious tempers who take out their own
frustrations on their kids.
However there are those who feel the
tunswer is to change the law so that any parent
who so much as slapped a child across the
bottom could be charged with assault and
that, in my humble opinion, is going a little
too far.
I couldn't believe the proposal when I first
heard it a few months ago. Apparently there
are already some countries in the world that
have such a law. Sweden, I think is one.
Recently a coroner in Toronto has been
pushing for such a law to be brought in in
Canada. Frankly, I wonder if the man has
-children.
Now spankings are something that are fairly
rare around our family. There tends to be a lot
more yelling, screaming and pleading than
there are spankings. We seem to have
youngsters with particularly tender feelings
who can break into tears at a mere cross look
(frankly 1 think they'll all someday get into
acting and win Academy Awards). Still, I
reserve the right to give a kid a swat across
the seat of the pants when all else fails.
Now I know that makes me anything but an
enlightened parent . And enlightened parent
is supposed to be above physical punishment
in the 1970's. We're supposed to reason with
our children, explain to them why they
shouldn't'do this or that. If all else fails we
should, administer a mild punishment such as
sending the kid to his room.
But what does the enlightened parent do if
the child refuses to see the logic in the
argument but simply stands there stamping
his feet and screaming that he'll do whatever
he wants and nobody can stop him. So you
ever so enlightenedly ask the child to go to his
mom and he tells you where to go. You snake
the command a little stiffer, without, of
course, raising your voice too high because an
enlightened parent doesn't do that, The kid
graphically tells you what you can do with
your order.
S o where does the enlightened parent go.:
from here? Well, he can either give up, or he
an throw away his Dr. Spock and fetch the
surprised kid a slap on the bottom, Redneck
that I am, I'll take the latter course.
But what happens when you reach such a
showdown of wills with a seven year old if'the
new law coshes in? if two adults come to such
an impasse they can call in the cops to charge
the other one with breaking some law, or they
atn call in the lawyers and sue each other, or
they can move out of the same neighbourhood
tin(' never have to deal with the other person
again. If it happens to be a husband and
wife , the lawyers get rich again fighting the
divorce case.
But what, pray tell, do you do in the case of
a seven-year old? 1 mean there is no law on the
statute books that says a kid has to remove the
frog he just put in the kitchen sink while his
sister was doing the dishes, The cops can't
come to your assistance and besides they're
too busy chasing murderers, rapists and
people without their seat belts done up to have
time for such little things. I don't think there's
acase for law suit unless it was the frog who
wanted to sue for being stuck in soap suds
thus ruining his environment and perhaps
effecting his health (might be a settlement for
$150,000 the way things are going these
days). The law says you have to care for your
children so you can't move out and leave him
and there's no case on record of divorce from
father to son.
So what do you do? Well I guess the kid just
walks all over you. Unless, unless...maybe if
you yell and scream and stamp your feet the
kid might get mad enough and haul off an
smack you one, at which time you could
charge him with assault and the cops could
come to your rescue afterall.
No I hate to make light of a problem as
serious as child beating. I know that many
people do go too far in physical punishment. I
remember friends of mine when I was growing
up who lived in terror of their father's leather
belt with metal studs on it which would come
in sharp contact with their bare skin when
they displeased him. They had nightmares
about it, but I think they grew up pretty
normal for all that.
People talk so much about the trauma of
physical punishment but what about the
trauma of psychological punishment. Didn't
we learn during the Korean War and since that
psycological warfare such as brainwashing
was every bit as bad as physical torture? Why
then do we now feel that a good slap on the
rear which the child will recover from in two
minutes, is more traumatic than spending a
couple of hours in his room shut off from
friends and family? I just can't see the logic in.
it, but then I guess that shows I'm just a

Huron F of A votes
down OFA tax reform
[by Keith Roulston]
Despite emotional appeals that the Huron
County Federation of Agriculture support the
Ontario Federation's stand on lapd tax
reform, members voted strongly against the
O.F.A, proposal for farm tax reform Thursday
night.
About 40 attended the meeting in Belgrave,
many saying they had come to the monthly
meeting of the Federation only because they
had heard a vote would be taken on the
proposal, They wanted no part of the O.F.A.'s
proposal that food producing land be tax
exempt and farmers only pay taxes on their
farm homes and a minimal acreage around the
house. Speaker after speaker doubted the
government's motives in the proposal to ease
the burden on land tax by paying the taxes for
farmers on all but their homes.
In supporting the motion against the policy
of O.F.A. and the proposal of the provincial
government, Jim McIntosh, director for East
Central Huron said that a large majority of
farmers in Huron are not willing to have the
government pay tax on all but the farm house.
There is nothing wrong with the market value
assessment which the province will be
adopting, he said, if all properties arc justly
assessed, As a former clerk -treasurer for
Tuckersmith township, he said, he didn't like
the farm tax proposal. He said the OFA should
stick to its original proposal of people taxes
paying for services to people and property
taxes paying for services to property.
Debate stopped at this point when Merle
Gunby, vice
'resident of the Huron Federation and
cfirector from north west Huron to 0.F.A.
moved a tabling motion which was defeated.
Mr. Gunby claimed that the time for
opposition to the O.F.A. policy was earlier and
that now that the policy had been accepted by
O.F.A. the county should stand behind the
provincial decision.
After the tabling motion's defeat, Jim
Armstrong of Wingham said he felt that the
government's proposal was part of the
government's cheap food policy. He noted a
meeting of consumer groups and labour
unions sone time ago in which both groups
called for public ownership of food producing
land as a way of keeping food prices down, He
wondered what would happen if he didn't pay
the taxes on his house for three years
therefore making it liable for tax sale. Who
would then get the land on the farm, he
wondered. Land taxes make up only about one
per cent of input costs, he said, and weren't
that serious a problem for farmers.
Defended
Maurice Bean, director for central west
Huron defended the 0.F.A. Policy. He said
that farmers seemed to be happy with the 50
per cent rebate on taxes that the 0.F.A. won
to offset education taxes so what was the fuss
over 100 per cent. If farmers feel so strongly
about paying their share of taxes, he said,
then why did farmers want exemptions from
sales tax on items they buy?
George Underwood of Wingham said that
he was concerned that many of the 0.F.A.
directors from across the province who
approved the policy don't really know what's
going on. He said that at an information
meeting held earlier in Clinton the 0.F.A.
executive didn't seen to get the message that
farmers didn't like the policy. Maybe now
they'd listen, he said.
Ernie Ackert, a visitng member of the Bruce
Federation, related the story of a number of
lakes on farms in Bruce county where, during
the depression the owners had asked that they
be relieved of paying taxes on the water
portion of the lake since it was non-productive
farmland. Later these owners discovered that
they had lost ownership of the lake portions of
their farm on their deeds and the lakes were
now owned by government.
Paul Ross, a Clinton lawyer, said that
before coming to Clinton he had worked for a
time at the Ministry of Revenue and felt that
they themselves didn't seem to know where
they were going with land tax reform. "Why
take chances with your own land?" he
wondered.
Gordon Hill, past president of OFA cane to
the defence of the 0.F.A. policy saying he
believed the government was sincere in its
proposal. As far back as 1948, he said, the
Federation had been asking for tax relief,
Under a great deal of stress, the government
did come up with the education tax rebate in
1970, he said. He said the government's task
in reform was complicated by the pledge of
former agriculture minister Bill Stewart that
any new taxation system would not be harder
an the farmer than the old system. With the
education tax rebate and the fact that the
whole tax assessment could be claimed as an
expense it meant that farmers were only
paying about 10 per cent of their assessed
taxes, he said.
People Taxes
As for the 0.F.A, policy of people taxes for
people services and land taxes for land
services, he said, the problem was just what
were the services to land, The land itself
didn't need any services if there weren't any
people around.
Without tax reform, he said, how could
Ontario farmers compete with farmers in
Alberta or New Brunswick who don't have to
pay property tax?
He said the new policy for farm tax reform
was a good one because he thought the
government was going to raise a lot more
money from land taxes in the future than they
had in the past. The 0.F.A, had two options,
he said. It could continue to say it would go
along with the old policy, or it could say
"we've tried, but now it's time to make a
deal."
Survey
Jim Hallahan, R. R. 113, Blyth termed Mr.
1 -fill's arguments "a lot of bull". He said he
had recently taken part in a survey of farmers
in East Wawanosh township and many were
irate about the 0. F.A. policy. He said that.if
0.F. A. went through with the policy it would
lose half its membership in Huron County.
Frank Wall of the 0.F.A. executive was at
the meeting and said that the report of the
committee studying land tax reform
recognizes the rights of the farmer to his land
even if lie doesn't pay taxes on the land.
Others supporting the 0.F.A. policy said that
the ownership of the land depends not on who
pays the taxes but on who owns the deed. But
Mr. Ross argued that just because you have
the deed to property doesn't mean you own it.
Another speaker warned that if the gov
anment is looking ahead with this policy, it's
looking ahead to a cheap food policy. The
policy will be a great incentive to farmers to
buy up more farms, wipe out the farm houses
to keep down the taxes and just work the land.
it will make the countryside look barren, he
argued.
Mr. Gunby then returned with an emotional
speech in support of the O.F.A. policy refuting
many of the earlier arguments against the
policy.
He claimed that a move by Huron county to
oppose an 0.F.A. policy would weaken the/
position of 0.F,A. and make it look ridiculot s.
He said that the new proposal wouldn't mean
that farmers weren't paying their fair share of
taxes because it likely wouldn't mean any
difference in the amount of tax they paid. He
said that if the government really did want to
get control of farmland then it could find much
-Easier wa, ys than under the new tax
proposals, He argued that farmers shouldn't
be against seeking a better break for
themselves because industry is always taking
government tax concessions.
Mr. Gunby said that he hadn't seen the
figures of what market value assessment
would mean to tax bills in Huron, but in
Halton region it would mean an increase of
four tines the present taxes and farmers
couldn't afford a bill like that.
He said the 0.F. A. stand was approved by
about 90 per cent of the directors from across
the province at the March meeting in Toronto.
A procedural hassle then arose since the
meeting had run past the 11 p.nn. deadline set
by the Federation for completion of the
rmnthly meeting,Several people insisted that
a vote be taken on the motion. Mr, Gunby
tried to block the vote by moving another
nation to table because he. said the motion
was not properly directed as to who it should
be referred to. This was shouted down.
Finally Gordon Hill suggested the motion
be sent to the O.F.A . as the policy of the
Huron Federation. The vote was taken and
showed strongly in favour of the motion,
apposing 0.F.A. policy. Mr. Gunby said he
could not argue in favour of the notion in
Toronto and offered his resignation.
Mr. Hill said that wasn't necessary saying
the motion can simply be stated as policy of
the Huron group without having to be
supported by Mr. Gunby or any of the other
Huron directors.
THE BLYTH STANDARD, MAY 10, 1978 --
Police are friends
municipalities hear
The policeman walking the
beat, riding on motor car patrol,
or judges and other court officers,
are good friends whose job is to
see that justice is done.
That was the theme of three
addresses Friday at the silver
anniversary conference of the
organization of small urban
municipalities (OSUM),
And all three speakers
emphasized that there .should be
no disgrace in providing informat-
ion to assist those authorities,
The theme of the conference was
"Law and order --who's protect-
ing whom?"
Ontario's Attorney General,
Roy McMurtry suggested "law
and justice" as appropriate for a
modern society where there was
uttagonism toward enforcement
officers, and that the "justice"
should be aimed at everyone
trying to see that just that,
justice, was done.
He said seven municipalities in
Ontario are taking part in a pilot
project dealing with vandals,
whereby convicted persons arc
"sentenced" to work to repay for
damage. The type of work varies
according to municipal needs.
But one point is not yet clear in
the courts --docs a provincial
judge have authority to assess
working hours in a criminal code
case, the criminal code under
Federal jurisdiction. He said that
point is being studied.
Earlier at the Frida y session,
during a panel discussion, Sam
Lerner, London lawyer, said
Somebody
Wants What
You Don't Need!
responsiblility for justice went
"right back to parents, school and
the whole community. Let's have
a system of education," which
produces respect for each other.
He put the blame of the news
media for lack of credibility of
police,
Bruce Affleck, of Oshawa,
former crown attorney who has
handled 35 murder cases and
35,000 criminal cases, told the
350 delegates that vandalism was
becoming aisource of conern, and
that while legislation was coming
to compensate the victims such
legislation was valueless if the
convicted person had no money.
He said there had to be some
foram of deterrent.
Police superintendent W.
Mervyn Johnson of London was
third innember of the panel.
"Crime prevention is the re-
sponsibility of everyone in our
society," and he thought there
was insufficient effort in pre-
ventative measures.
Mr, McMurtry said that "when
we have three public commissions
investigating activities of our
national police force which is an
internationally recognized symbol
of law and order, we all have a
duty to reflect upon what the rule
of law really means in Canada
today."
"The rule of law simply
reflects the fact that any society is
in very deep trouble when it starts
to settle its disputes in the streets
or at the barricades rather than in
the ballot box and the court
room."

Blyth UCW plan banqu�t
The May meeting of the
Outreach Unit of the U.C.W. was
attended by 16 ladies on Tuesday
afternoon.
Mrs. M ary Wightman took as
her theme "Love", and
developed ideas taken from the
U.S.C, conference in Stratford in
April, She also had a question-
naire on "the qualities of love",
and all participated in a
discussion.
Mrs. Edith Button read the
Scripture. Mrs, Pattison and
several ladies presented a skit on
"Outreach". The group's
catering committee will look
after the C.G.I.T's, Mother and
daughter banquet on
May 17, Hostesses at the social
hour were Mrs. Harve McDowell
and Mrs. Lloyd Walden.

persons from all the churches in

speakers
Mrs, Dorothy Beaton and Miss
Isobel Fox, conveners of
Community Friendship in the
church in Society, led in devotions
at the meeting of the Blyth
General U.C.W. held on Monday.
Mrs. Beaton's meditation was
on the beauties of spring and her
poem, on "What My Mother
Taught Me". Guest soloist was
Miss Valerie Wasson who sang,
"The Impossible Dream". Mrs.
McDougall's piano Prelude made
everyone again reflect on the
beauty of bird song and flowers
on what was, weathcrwise, a
dreary afternoon,
Isobel Fox's topic was thought-
provoking. Taken from the United
Church Observer, it was entitled
"My Church has let me down" as
related by a minister's wife
separated from her husband. 4
lively discussion and debate
followed: Did the fault lie with the
church or with the lady in
question' or with both? Miss Foxs
audience was left wiht a desire to
give strangers a feeling of
belonging in all phases of church
lift.
Miss Fox brought a fitting
climax to her topic by reading a
poem, "Do not judge too hard"
published in "Voice for Health".
President Evelyn Smith
conducted the remainder of the
meeting. The roll call was
answered by 19 members, Mrs.
Mayme Crawford, treasurer,
presented a healthy financial
statement. The Evening Unit was
praised for the tremendous
organization and hours of hard
work behind the success of their
annual Garage Sale on May 6.
One of the many topics of
busincs was the passing of a
resolution that a letter be sent to
members of the Huron County
Board of Education commending
them on their restriction of the
use of prescribed English text
books containing undesirable
language, and expressing a hope
that their policy in their regard
will continue at the time of
selecting future English literature
texts.
Sunday, Oct. ,1, was the date
set for the fall Thankoffering

sleeting at 8 p.m. instead of 2'

B of E to ask parents about classes
The Huron County Board of
Education decided Monday that.
since parents complained about
extended periods at Seaforth
District High School and South
Huron District High School then
parents should be asked if they
like the lengthened classes.
The board was told Monday by
its school programs committee
that no action should be taken to
alter period lengths at the two
schools, despite complaints from
parents that the classes were too
long. 1'he committee said both
principals had conducted surveys
of teachers and students and
received a positive reaction to the
extended periods.
Seaforth trustee John
Henderson reminded the board
that it \vas parents, riot studncts
or teachers, who complained
about the period length. He said
it was parents who were
concerned and it should have
been parents who were surveyed.
Conimittee chairman Dorothy
Wallace told the board that the
principal's survey showed that
both students and teachers liked
the extended periods. Teachers
felt that the extra class time
improved the quality of work,
permitted them to get more done
in a class and to improve the
content of each lesson. Students
felt that the extra time permitted
them more time for under-
standing lessons and that extra
time in study periods allowed
then) better use of school facilities
such as the library for personal
use.
Mrs, Wallace said the
principals indicated that the
parents had a certain responsi-
bility to keep students in line
during their time out of the
classroom. She said the schools
weren't to blank if students
enjoyed the privilege of using the
family car raid an extended period
to "run down to Stratford for a
Big Mac",
Mr. Henderson said some of
the parents against the extended
period had children going to
school. on buses. Hoe said the
students in some cases get to
school at 8:30 in the morning and
don't have a class until 10:00 or
have an early class at 9:00 and
nothing to do until after lunch.
Mrs. Wallace said the
principals felt that recent
problems in the field of education
in Huron made a parent survey
unpopular. She said the mood of
parents was not right for an
accurate survey of opinions and
feelings.
Clinton trustee Dorothy
Williams said she made the
original suggestion for the survey
and had recommended that
parents be surveyed. She said
someone else added that teachers
and students be included.
Superintendent of education R.
B. Allan said he was inclined to
agree with the principals that the
Huronview
Dick Roorda led the Sunday •
acning song service slionsorcd
by the Clinton Christian Reform
Church and Miss Margaret
McQueen accompanied at the
piano. There were special musical
numbers by a group of girls called
"i'hc Rising Sun" who sing in

climate was not right for a survey'
of parents. He said the general
feeling of the public was "tense"
and that the survey may be more
accurate if it was delayed.
"The climate is going to get
rougher," said Brussels trustee
Donald McDonald.
Colborne trustee Shirley Hazlitt
reminded the board that a survey
done in the fall would be pointless
since it would be too late to make
any changes in timetabling. She
said if parents wanted the periods
shortened now was the time to
find out, to allow change to be
made for the 1978.79- year,
"The climate is not good now
but it probably never will be in
education," she said.
Zurich trustee Herb. Turkheim
suggested that perhaps now is as
good a time as any to "get all the
dirty linen washed at once".
The matter was sent back to the
program committee for further
investigation with a reminder
from director of education John
Cochrane that principals arc in
charge of the management of
their schools,

County
pays cut
The Anti-inflation Board rolled
back wages in four county offices
by two percent recently and the
new salary schedules were
approved by county council at its
Friday session.
The four employee groups
affected by the cutback --county
planners, health administrators,
health inspectors and secretarial
staff --had two percent slashed
from wage and benefit packages
negotiated during 1977 and 1978.
Employees in the county
planning department had. from
$200 to $400 taken from their
annual earnings. The wage of a
planning technician was cut from
$12,740 to $12,558. Both county
planner wages were rolled back,
one wage from $19,786 to $19,318
and the other from $18,616 to
$18,148.
S ipervisory staff in the health
unit did not escape the AIB
pencil. Three top administrators
had two percent taken from their
wage and benefit package. The
director of nursing for the county
now makes $18,642, the director
of inspection makes $18,642 and
the home care supervisor makes
$18,122.
Health unit employees that are
members of the Canadian Union
of Public Employees Local 1305
reworked their contract after the
AIB cutback altering the expiry
date and the benefit package. The
employees were ready to settle, on 1
an 18 month pact incorporating
salary increases of four percents
effective July I, 1977 and six
percent January 1, 1978. Along .
with those increases was an
agreement for the county to pick
up two thirds of a dental plan for 1.
the employees.
Non union secretarial
employees were also cut
be left in the church basement by
May 20th.
Mrs. H. Craig reported she had

Salaries are 75 % BofE budget
If quality of education hinges
on personnel costs Huron County
should rank as having one of the
best education systems in the
province, Just under 75 percent
of the money Huron taxpayers
pay for an education system goes
toward salaries for teachers,
administrators, secretaries,
janitors and bus drivers,
Roy Dunlop, superintendent of
business affairs for the board of
education, said Monday that 74.6
percent of the total education
budget is designated for salaries,

tration, which includes Dunlop,
some staff at the board's adminis-
trative office and school secre-
taries cost $218,192 in 1978,
Teachers', principals, vice
principals, superintendents of
education and the education
director costs the taxpayers
$14,529,704 this year.
Employees in educational
services which include audio-
visual technicians and a librarian
cost $60,259.
Janitorial staff in the county
schools cost $980,099 and bus
drivers cost $152,506 in wages.
'1'hc budget•,, less the salaries,
leaves the board with $5,441,099
to operate its education system.
That money is used for
purchasing supplies for schools,
paying legal costs, insurance
costs, operation of buses,
operation of elementary and
secondary schools, debt charges
and capital expenses.
The cost' of wages in the
operation of the education system
has always been a source of
concern for trustees trying to
justify annual requisitions to the
county's 26 municipalities. The
trustees argue that three quarters
of the budget is fixed costs like
salaries and they have no power
to alter that, Added to that are the
fixed costs for debt charges and
plant operation which means taht
if wages are beyond the control of
the board's budget then over 90
percent of the money spent
annually is out of the hands of the
board of education trustees,
The high precentage paid in
salaries is a shock to many
business minded people. Many
claim that if wages exceed 50
percent of gross expenses a
company is paying too much for
staff. If that rule of thumb applied
to education or many other
government agencies then one
third of the board's staff would
have to face early retirement or
school taxes would have to be
increased by 30 percent.

Ontario has reformed its family laws.
We think you
and your family
should
know about
them.
The purpose of the new legislation is to
strengthen and encourage the role of
the family by bringing outmoded and
unfair laws into line with modern
family life. Among the subjects
covered are:
• Matrimonial property — the sharing
of family assets, including the family
home.
• Support — the mutual obligation of
spouses to support themselves and
their children.
• Domestic contracts— what they are
and how to make them.
• Abolition of the status of
illegitimacy— equal rights for all
children.
The Ministry of the Attorney General
has prepared an easy -to -understand
pamphlet which summarizes the new
law. For your free copy, write to:

• Marriages—age of consent and civil
ceremonies.
• Succession rights — the rules for
making wills and rights of surviving
family members.
The new laws substantially change the
rights and responsibilities of every
person in Ontario.

Huron teachers
Professional development (PD)
thy: for students it means a free
day from classes; often for ninny
pxrrents it means another toasted
holiday for the teachers and
pupils, but, for the teachers
themselves, PD stands for a day
of learning and discussion, which
in turn is passed on to the
students in their classroom work,
Such was the case when over
350 school teachers from Huron's
public schools gathered at Huron
Centennial School in Brncefield
on Friday, to study the effective
use of media in the classroom.
With the aid of guest speakers
an d advisors from other
efucational institutions and the
Ontario Educational Com-
munications Authority (OFCA)
the teachers spent the .day in
lectures and workshops to im-
prove and further their know-
ledge of audio and visual facilities
in the classroom.
The sessions involved: audio
production and utilization, to
develop better listening skills in
students; film in the classroom,
making the best use of Huron's
excellent film collection; photo-
graphy and pictures, to develop
the teachers' critical eye and
increase the impact of pictures in
the classroom; portapak product-
ion, to explore the use of
television production in the class;
bulletin boards and chalkboards,
to enhance wall space as the
centre of learning activity.
Other workshops included the
use of overhead production, use
of the large selection of radio
programs from OECA, a media
approach to literature and most
importantly the maintenance and
operation of audio visual equip-
ment,
As well, OECA spent half of the
day presenting sessions of their
educational television program-
ming. In their presentations
attempts were made to demon-
strate the practical application of
the programs to meet the stand-
ards of the curriculum. Three
sessions were held for the various
grade levels, primary, junior and
intermediate.
For Huron teachers media and
many audio visual equipment
pieces are a new teaching device
since the Media Centre, located
at the Board of Education offices
in Clinton was set up in 1973.
While record players, overhead
machines and film projectors
have been in use for a number of
years, learning can now be
enhanced and made more in-
dividualistic by the use of private
viewers and sound equipment,
Alice Andrews, librarian and
coordinator of the resource centre
at the Clinton Public School
explained that audio visual and
media materials are, "being used
a good two -third's to three -
quarter's of the day.
Individual viewers are ex-
tensively used at the school. Here
a pupil can use one of the six
machines to study film strips that
individually help him with pro-
blem subjects, or give extra work
if he is ahead of the class,
Similarly the school also uses
listening centres. With this piece
of equipment pupils can plug
earphones into a central box
vMich in turn broadcast any audio
signal. Without disturbing the
rest of the class, .pupils can listen
to cassettes, record players, films
and so forth.
"A picture is worth a thousand
words," Mrs, Andrews pointed
out.
With this in mind a class of
students, after listening to the
story Charolette's Web in a series
of cassettes, made a film using
their own art work. Writing their
awn script, based on Charolette's
Web and making their own
artificial • television set, the
children put together a series of
pictures and drawings for their
cxvn production,
Angus McLellan, principal at
Hallett Central explained that by
using media facilities in the
classroom, "The interest is in-
creased and its More realistic."
He went on further to say that
the media is brought in to most
lessons, at Hallett, from record
Mayers to television.
Audio visual equipment has
also been used for special projects
by Huliett students, A grade 2
THE BLYTH STANDARD, MAY 10, 1978 — 15
learn on PD day
class presented a slide show
about animals in danger of
extinction. From their drawings
of the animals, slides -were taken
and put together al the Media
Centre to produce a film strip,
"In the last five years video
tape has become widely used,"
mplained Dave Bieman of the
Media Centre, "1 hasn't been
used so much at CHSS because of
equipment problems, but it's
used a lot at the Clinton Public
School."
He continued to say that he and
two technicians spent a big part of
their day sending out films, some
7,000 a year, and taping pro-
grams from the television for
future use,
Presently the Media Centre has
a film library containing 898
prints and 500 video tapes of
television programs. Once the
video tapes have been used by the
various schools they .are erased
and used again to record another
educational program.
Along with the 24 elementary
schools in the county, the centre
also serves three trainable re-
tarded schools and five high
schools,
Although films and video tapes
make up an important part of the
use of media in the classroom,
bulletin boards in most schools
become an important visual aid,
PAR1ICH'AIE IN C
i S EMPLOYMENITAXCREDIF POOCHAM.
Tdhe Government
of Canada has intro-
uced the Employment
'fax Credit Program to stimu-
late employment in the private
sector by providing a tax rebate.
Here's how it works.
1. If an employer expands his
normal work force
by hiring an unemployed
person through
a Canada Manpower
Centre/Canada
Employment Centre,
and the job has been
created as 0
a direct result of the
Employment Tax
Credit Program, the
business is eligible to
claim the tax rebate.
2. Almost any
business that's been in
operation for
more than one year is
eligible.
3. The rebate is
calculated '
at $1.50, $1.75 or $2.00
per hour. This rate is
determined by the geographic area
of Canada in which the new employee
will be working.
4. The rebate is deductible from
federal income taxes payable but
must be added to
taxable income. Unused
amounts may be
carried forward for up
to work with a mini
.•�-x' to five years.
5. A claim may be
made for up to 40 hours work a
week for each new employee
for a period of up to
nine months.
6. Each new job
must be full-time. Nor-
mally no less than
35 hours a week.
And that's it, es-
sentially. The program
has been designed
to work with a mini-

Fatalities cut by belts
by Murray Gaunt, M.P.P. sn•ces is closely monitoring the
The death toll on Ontario's lake Erie fish crop to protect
loads dropped in 1977 to the Ontario fishermen, according to
lowest level in fifteen years, and Rene Brunelle, Provincial
.at belts and lower speeds are Secretary for _ Resources
being credited, In 1977, 1,418 1kvelopmen1 Mr. Brunelle was
people including 251 pedestrians responding to M.P.P. James
died in motor vehicle related
accidents. That is 6.2% lower
than the total of 1,511 in 1976•
The 1977 total is the lowest since
'1962.
'Transportation and Com-
munications Minister James
Snow said he shares the belief of
many police and safety officials
that the compulsory seat belt law
zinc' lower speed limits are having
"a noticeable effect on the death
statistics",
Seal belt usage peaked at 74%
when the law first came into
effect, but has dropped to about
55% The Ministry intends to
spend $100,000 in an advertising
campaign this summer, to en-
wurage motorists to buckle up as
\Nell as to point out the im-
portance of driver alertness. The
lower death and serious injury
late has important implications
for .Ontario health costs. The
annual cost to OHIP because of
atrnage on the roads is about $70
million. -
In an attempt to control the
rowdyism and drunkenness which
has traditionally marred holiday
week -ends, a temporary alcohol
ban has been imposed in ten
Southern Ontario Provincial
parks, and a partial ban has been
imposed in one other park. The
ban will be lifted on June 19, but
for the remainder of the season
open containers of alcohol will be
permitted only at campsites at all
128 provincial parks. Under these
alcohol regulations to be applied
on a trial basis this year, park
officers have the power to remove
violators and cancel their permits.
Anyone caught breaking the rules
will not be allowed to return to the
park within 72 hours of the
offence without the permission of
the park superintendent.
