Perhaps the greatest all round need. - “adequate hospi- tal facilities within our own area" - has inspired and spur- red us to greater effort than previous requirements in that this is one project that con- berns everyone in our comm-un- ity. No one can afford to hang If the portraits unveiled was aha-t of the late Jack Fraser. whose Guernsey farm at the :orner of Duiferin St. and Highway No. 7 was one of our better-known landmarks, as well as being a beautiful farm. Several members of Mr. Fras- er's family were present for the ceremony. along with Mr. and Mrs. Hamid Ciapp and children. Mr. Cla was farm manager at Frase ale for sev- eral years.

WILLOWDALE : William Ly~ on, cowncillor for Ward 8, North York Township has an- nounced his retirement from municipal politics at the end of this year to seek the provin- cial Liberal nomination. The people of Ontario can make a $600,000,000 present to themselves in one year by reducing their spending on imported goods by $100 per person. This action on the part of every person in the province would help create 60,000 new jobs. We are the world’s greatest importers of manufactured goods. Contrast our yearly total with that of other countries: Americans spend $35 per capita The British spend $75 . . . West Germans spend $60 . . . Canadians spend $235 per person per year on manufactured goods. If these expenditures in Ontario on imported goods could be reduced by $100, we would still be amongst the world’s greatest im- porters. Ifthat $100 were diverted to Cana- dian goodswe would add$600,000,000 to our economy and help create 60,000 new jobs! To accomplish this, the consumer must become “label conscious”; it is the sum of all our day-to-day purchases which can add up to the success or failure of our economy. Whenever the consumer reaches out for an imported product, he or she should ask, “Is there a Canadian equivalent?” For in most cases there is a Canadian product that is as good or better. The more money we spend on things we make, the more prosperous the people of Ontario will be!
