(Continued from Page 1) Stephen Lewis as Ontario prime minister. “The father and son' combina- tion might make it easier. On the other hand it could make the situ- ation more difficult," said Mr. Clifton. Ontario NDP leadership hopeful Stephen Lewis arrived right on time for his Richmond Hill meet- ing with the York Centre Riding Association members. “The Tories need only lose nine seats and they’re out. And their 28 years of continuous rule will be over,” said Mr. Lewis, in his open- ing statements. “In areas where political opin- ion is in a state of flux, the feel- ing is that the NDP is the conâ€" tender for power. The NDP is being seriously viewed as the serious alternative to Tory power in Ontario. “If we do our work well, We will make enormous gains in the next election. “We could make Ontario a model for all of North America. I’m sure we could do enough in our first four years of power to make certain we would be re- turned to power in a subsequent election,” said Mr. Lewis. “We're going to give the Tories a battle in every riding like they’ve never seen before. Stephen Lewis Visits York Centre Riding In NDP Campaign “it appears true that we are going to form the government of Ontario in one election stage, or two. PERSONAL VIEWS Turning to his personal views and reasons for seeking the On- tario NDP leadership, Mr. Lewis pointed out that his roots in the party go back many years as the son of national NDP Deputy-leader David Lewis, and that he has a long involvement with NDP af- fairs. “I personally believe party pol- icy must be set at convention time by the party membership. You need have no fear that I would dictate policy just according to my own wishes. “I believe economic and struc- ural changes in government are only made for human reasons. I think a feeling of personal alien- tation and enormous frustration are characteristic of the effects of Tory rule.

Judge Pearse gave him a $200 fine, with the alternative of tw0 months in jail. Darby was also told he can’t carry a gun for five years. His palm-sized auto- matic pistol and shells were confiscated. The court was told Darby had a previous conviction in 1959 for theft under $50. An off-duty policeman saw Darby’s gun sticking out of a back pocket, and Darby was arâ€" rested when Markham Town- LONGHORN ‘ INN DON MILLS ROAD AT THE MT. ALBERT SIDEROAD SHARON, ONTARIO “I’m not an advocate of the Wat- kins group. I early fell out with the Waffle movement on several basic reasons. I’m sympathetic with their feelings, but not in agreement with their solutions. “Ontario is not so ultraconserv- ative that the NDP has to be in- distinguishable to win support. The party must be individual and distinct. It is only that our pol- icies must not be explained to the electorate in a threatening way. v-j‘BErâ€"Hrogfams can be described in acceptable terms. We must pro. vide a real alternative," said Mr. Lewis U.S. DOMINATION Asked about US. domination of Canadian life and affairs, Mr. Lewis began by saying he felt there are two areas of US. dom- ination. First there was the old and long-established economic domination, but there was now what he called recreational dom- ination. “We are going to have to re- claim our recreation land, like the shores of Lake Erie, for public use. Even now the northwest Ontario cottage and beach areas are 70 to 73% foreign owned. “When we come to power we will reclaim the beaches, and no shillyâ€"shallying about it. “We’re also going to have pub- lic ownership of tracts of urban lands to solve the problem of housing. And we're going to have to have land banks. “A land use plan is possible for Ontario. We have to have a tax on land speculation. This is be- cause land has been so badly raped in Ontario,” he said. Mr. Lewis went on to say that the NDP advocates a provincial foundation program which will even up revenue among the mun- icipalities by means of equaliza- tion grants. 7 “The Achilles heel of the Tories is that they’re just too friendly with business. The NDP in On- tario need not bow to industry as Manitoba’s NDP Premier Ed Schreyer had to. 7 “Th'e Ontario economy is more resilient than Manitoba’s. There is more dissent and more ferment. “Business is actually under less strictures in‘ Canada than it is in Europe, Mexico, or even the Un- ited States. “We say, 'Here we are. Take us’," said NDP leadership candi- date Lewis. Questioned about education, Mr. Lewis said he feels the focus in Ontario education is on numbers and costs, rather than, on the ship Police were called. Alan Hudema, 21, o! 51 Oak Avenue, Riohvale, July 28 in Richmond Hill Court admitted driving dangerously May 14 and was fined $150. His driving pri- vileges were also suspended everywhere in Canada for a year. Hudema was arrested at 1:45 am at Bathurst Street and Car- rvilLe Road after his motor burned out in a high speed game of tag with Vaughan Township Police. The police chase involved speeds of 100 mph in 50 mph zones. Stop signs were ignored. A car was forced off the road at a one-lane bridge. Davis’s car finally flipped over and landed on its wheels. A whit- church Police cruiser was close behind, followed by the Mark- ham Township Police car. He was one of two drivers observed speeding north on Yonge Street, two abreast and at about 50 mph. Stopped by police, Hudema made a U-turn and sped away south at speeds up to 80 mph. Taking Highway 7 west to Bathurst Street, he drove north at speeds around 110 mph. DaVis.

His smoking car slowed down, rthe escaping oil spattered the windshield of the pursuing police cruiser. Hudema turned down Carr- ville Road, still going at high speed. His car slid down Carr- ville broadside for 50 feet, and stopped. When arrested he had a strong smell of liquor on his breath. the court was told. John Davis of 45 Wales Ave- nue, Markham, married and a father at age 19, in Richmond Hill Provincial Court July 28, admtited a charge of Flangerous driving May 23. Davis was finally arrested in Whitchurch Township after a long high speed chase by Whit- church and Markham Town- ship Police. The chase started in the Varley Village, Unionville area at 11:10 pm. He started his flight from Jeremy Drive when a police cruiser approached. Davis’ de- fence lawyer said the flight wasn’t the driver’s idea, but was caused by a passenger in the car. He didn’t say why the passenger wanted to escape. or who the passenger was. “You could have killed some- Ross body. It was just luck that you both didn’t,” Judge Pearse told told Davis. C1 He {vent through a red light quality of learning. “There is value in students be- ing educated in the community, instead of in the schools, either during school hours or after hours. "wé don’t need just massive buildings and endlessly expensive facilities and teachers. “Teachers and students should have much more power and influ- ence over the schools than the school boards now give them. I would favor greater democratir ation of the schools. TEACHERS REPRESSED “There is nothing more repress- ive than the present system of teacher training and education in Ontario. "Dr. Lewis said students must be provided with all sorts of creat- ive outlets. “The cynicism of youth, the whole drug problem, worries me. They are symptoms of social neurosis,” the West Scar- boro MLA said. Mr. Lewis said he feels there are three sources of decision mak- ing in the overall community. Firstly there were the corpor- ate board rooms. Secondly there came the vastly powerful civil ser- vice. Third, and most important of all, came the legislators. “Legislators are often smothered by the civil service. But I wouldn’t let the civil service block us on essential policies, whether I had to go around them, or use seduction or coercion,” said Mr. Lewis. Born in Ottawa, Stephen Lewis is now 32 years old. He completed his education studying modern history at Toronto and British Col- umbia Universities. He spent two years working in Africa. He was a teacher and lecturer at Accra High School in Ghana. He was principal of'Okiji Secondary School in Nigeria.

Hebbard was in a parked motor vehicle with the keys in the ignition, and had a breatha- Iyzer reading of 3.7, the court was told. A reading of 0.80 is the maximum allowed by law. An astonished Judge Pearse remarked, “I’ve never heard of such a high reading. This is the highest I’ve ever heard in this court in all the years I’ve been sitting “Neitherihave I ever encoun- tered such a high reading," re- plied the Crownflattqmefy.‘ ‘ He‘bbard was fined $100 and costs. ‘ Wayne King, 19, of 8185 Yonge Street, Thornhill, July 30 pleaded guilty to breaking into Marshall’s Shell Station at 8243 Yonge Street at 1:50 am, just a few hours before his court appearance.

He has since served as NDP Caucus speaker for health and welfare, and education and university affairs. He is now NDP labor critic in the House. The York Centre NDP Riding Association has passed nine resol- utions on policy for submission to the October 2 provincial leader- ship convention at the Royal York Hotel in Toronto. The first resolution is aimed at eliminating the loss of Canada Pansion Plan benefits that occurs when individuals are off work fol- lowing industrial accidents. The resolution is a follows: “Whereas Workmen's Compen- sation Board benefits are not con- sidered as earnings for contrib- uting in the Canada Penion Plan, and Whereas this deprives a con- siderable number of our citizens from being eligible for full penâ€" sion upon retirement, because of long term industrial disabilities; “Be it so resolved that the New Democratic Party. in conjunction with the Canadian Labor Con- gress, strongly petition the Fed- eral Government to amend this gross inequity in legislation by a1- lowing injured workmen (along with the accident employer), to continue paying instalments into the Canada Pension Plan until the injured workman is able to re- turn to gainful employment. "And be it further resolved that these contributions be de- ducted at the onset of any dis- ability, after one month.” The second resolution involves the controversial issue of main- taining sovereignty in union af- fairs and the relationship of Ontario locals to their parent ~in- ternational unions. The third resolution is as follows: “Be it resolved that, in order to strengthen Canada economically so that we are better able to determ- ine our future, steps be taken to expand trade abroad and increase Canadian investments in Canadian companies to 51% in each in- stance, in order to have control." The' fourth resolution is as fol‘ lows: “In view of the growing body of public and scientific opinion which maintains that pollution is basic- ally the consequence of over-pop- ulation, be it resolved that the Ontario NDP accept as a basis of its social policy the goal of zero population growth.” CANADIAN OWNERSHIP male.

It’s disgraceful,” said Judge Pearse, convicting Adams. He also put Adams on probation, ordered him not to operate a vehicle on any street or road for three months. The Judge also ordered Adams to stay away from the juvenile girl involved in the distur- bance (Continued from Page 2) ready-made at the local supermarket!

But never fear for these two Canucks! The Japanese have adopted western food in a most uniquely oriental blend of beef, fish, spagetti, rice, and salad â€"â€" all in one dish!

SOILS DEPLETION The sixth York Centre NDP res- olution is as follows: “In view of the depletion of our soils and the depreciation of our lakes, be it resolved that the Ontario Water Resources Commis~ sion develop an active advertising campaign to increase the amount of processed human excrement that is returned to the soil in Ontario. and if necessary develop a demonstration project as part of this campaign."
