ELGIN MILLS R0 The government also was right to oppose Alberta in its efforts to raise the price of crude oil. ‘ The $1,500 bonus, plus the $500 federal bonus made up the down payment on a house for many young people. Housing, itself, created more employment. Therefore, just as the department stores had pre- Christmas sales, the government put in what kind of “fiscal incentives it could." The first was criticized as just an election gimmick because it was only in effect until January. Incentives needed However, the economy was in a slump and people responded to lower prices. He cited the 2 percent sales tax cut and the $1,500 housing bonus for people buying their first house, as among its top features. Budget features He said the recent provincial budget was both “good politically and from a business point of view." That was his “hard line, right wing, Conservative side speaking," Miller ad- ded, giving the audience a glimpse of his lighter side as he said it. Society was the same as a family, and as such it had to realize there was “an ab- solute limit on what we can spend and borrow. It must be more productive; there was a limit to the demands it could make on the state. Costé'Wodidvfio up and up The constant concern with “rights” and demands of every description were “not what made this country great," Miller said. “Society has lost sight of that," he sai_d. Society's present ob- session with “what the state owes them,” will destroy the country “in the final analysis." Ontario Health Minister Frank Miller told the annual meeting of York Centre Provincial Progressive Conservative Association last week at Markham Community Arena. Miller tells York Centre Pessocletv must limit its demands on the state $5995 $2995 $3995 $4995 $2250 $1995 $5995 $4995 Dr. Walker will be taking a 12-month course on this equipment to provide our patients with the best of technical knowledge. Executive Director James Hepburn spoke of the need for funds in other areas of the hospital. He impressed the nearly 500 canvassers so much they were eager to get out to the community and start raising the money necessary for the equipment to bring the new Langstaff Wing up to the best possible health care level that can be provided. Nuclear medicine Dr. Des Walker explained what nuclear medicine is and how the equipment works, also the function of the diagnostic ultra-sound equipment â€" which is all part of the dream of York Central. Larry Epworth, a former patient, told of his seven- week stay in a traction bed and of his, and other patients’ extra special care given by the hospital's nurses and doctors. York Central Hospital's $1 million campaign got off to a good start April 23 and 24 when kick-off dinners were held. He said Ontario had a record deficit budget this year, but it was spending $1.7 billion on capital in- vestment at the same time. Government profit If it were a business. it would show a profit of $200 million, as its capital in- vestments were in excess of its operating cash shortage. and it wasn't a field for the government to be in. “I‘m a free enterpriser Miller said. $1 million YCH campaign is off to good start He said lives of citizens of That's exactly what we did for you.

Little concluded by reading a poem, written by his father Robert Little, especially for the occasion. Little Senior was the chairman for Richmond Hill Chairman Little inspired such confidence in the canvassers that the goal of $1-million can surely be realized by May 12, Hospital Day. Chairman Don Daynard of the speakers' bureau was the master of ceremonies for the evening and introduced General Chairman Don Little. After a delightful half hour of song, the chorus en- tertained the patients in the continuing care section of the hospital. They also sang two numbers which won for them eighth place in the recent convention held in Toronto. The Thornhill Barbershop Chorus entertained the canvassers after dinner with renditions of old time favorites. the community must not be jeopardized by their being forced to go elsewhere to obtain medical help. Now with hindsight, he could see that “you shouldn‘t be an expert in your ministry“. You shouldn't go into something with all your biases set.
