Mr. Norton said that his party was already on record in support of this. but Mr. Deacon saw it as an unnecessary expense, while Mr. Wells considered that such a function was being ade- quately looked after by the existing‘ Department of Education. I do not think that many stud- ents listening were convinced. In the first place we students are aware that young people are forming an increasing pro- portion of the nation’s population. Also. many so‘called youth problems are developing simply because the older generation does not really know what it is like to be young in our day and age. In fact. Mr. Wells made nostalgic reference to the happy days he spent at Richmond Hill High School. This may have sounded good to him. but students do not seem to be much impreSsed by this “Hi Neighbour" approach today. In short. we think that there is a lot of merit in the idea of a Ministry of Youth Affairs â€"â€"if it has a lot of bright, young people in it! Other probing questions were asked. many of them dealing with the practical aspects of the. candidates' proposals: How would Mr. Norton's party raise the funds necessary to subsidize higher education for deserving. but needy students? Where would Mr. Deacon find the land necessary for the low- cost housing the Liberals promise to offer? How would the Conservatives plan to encourage the development of industry in the north. and keep gifted people there? And. why. some students wanted to know. were all the parties offering: the ‘plum' of northern development only now at election time when they have left the problem unsolved until this time‘.’ . In summary. most of us found the session enlightening â€" as much for what we were not told as for what we were! Some of the students I talked to after the meeting felt that the candi- dates did not give straight answers on some of the questions. but “beat around the bush." Others felt that the politicians went to too great pains to be nice to each other. in other words. no sharp debate. and none of the fireworks we expected from the collision of ideas. In short. we'd like to <99 the standard of political thinking and oratory iii t‘anada improve. Perhaps that‘s a challenge that some of the young people who attended the meeting will one day pick up. llllltlllilltlltlllllhltl’lllIllllllllllllltllllllllllllmllllttllllltllltlllllllllllllllllltlllltltllllltllll“lll(litlllllIttillRIilllIlillllllllllllllllltIllllllllllttRimllllllllllllllllllllllll‘llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllltlllllllllllmJ1llllllllllIlllllllllmlllNUMNMHMWWWIMWimmluflmtmmmmflllmtflllmmtllllllllltlllllllllllmfillll “‘ ““ m 'Calll.\ “limit is a secondary SL'llDDl student residing in Richmond lllll' 6‘lllllllll‘lllllllllllllllllllllllllllIll\llllllIllllllllllllltlllllllllllllIlllllllllll'Illlllllllllllllllllllllllllll"lll|||lllllltlllllllilllitllllliillll'l lda‘tlll'g :iiutei iii LIBERAL CLASSIFIEDS-Get Results-884410 which is often too late.

Wages are 18% higher than the na- tional average and since 1963 personal incomes have risen 290}. Mr. Deacon charged the Con- servatives with spending moneyl ,carelessly â€" money. which he claimed could have been saved and spent more profitably else-l l where. Exemplifying this claim, he cited. “The Conservatives creat-l ed a beautiful conservation area: at Bruce's Mill, but paid $25,: 000 an acre for it. Just three‘ miles north lies an area with equally as much potential which, would have cost just $1,000 an, acre. “That's why 1 say the waste of money is the main issue toâ€" day. There are many instances of this terrible waste â€"â€" and I contend that we have to get more value from our tax dollar today to ease the burden on the average taxpayer." Mr. Norton referred briefly. to the “Preston Incident" ill-l, volving removal of two children from their foster mother’s home‘ by the Children's Aid Society. "The street ruckus that reâ€" sulted was nothing short of a disgrace. Reaction of the gm- eriiinent in this case is typical of its reaction to many other problems. The government had six to eight weeks to prevent‘ this situation from developing but just sat back and allowed 'the entire matter to disinte- grate. It was only after the disgraceful street scene that Mr. Robai‘ts decided to set up an inquiry into the case, but even then he said there wouldn‘t be a change in the taxi "'l'lie (‘oiiseiwalne (iil\6i'n» :ncnI strictly a ginei'liineiit by inquiry" .\lr.
