PU Right now people who believe themselves to be humane are atâ€" tempting to force the Ontario government to withdraw proposed legislation which is needed to alâ€" leviate the suffering of those who are sick. Bill 194, an Act respectâ€" ing the care and provision of aniâ€" mails for research, seeks to estabâ€" lish the principle that animals which are presently destroyed in the public pounds should be sold to universities where those who treat the sick are educated and the search goes on for ways to prevent and cure disease. We would all oppose the use of pets in research and Bill 194 enâ€" sures that they will not be obâ€" tained for these purposes. Where there is none now, this Bill would set a minimum redemption period across the province to give pet owners time to find lost animals; pound keepers woulgd have to notiâ€" fy, by law, the owner of any aniâ€" mal bearing a tag or tattoo. Aniâ€" mals not claimed by their owners could be held indefinitely and sold or given away to anyone wanting to adopt a pet. Only those which would otherwise be deâ€" stroyed could be sold for teaching and researchâ€"not sold to dealers but directly to registered and inâ€" spected research facilities. Dealâ€" ers who buy dogs and cats for resale to laboratories are eliminâ€" ated under this bill. The inhumanity of man to his fellow creatures is a frightening thing! Research â€" institutions would also be controlled under Bill 194. They would have to meet high standards before they would be registered. They would be inspectâ€" ed regularly by qualified employâ€" ees of the veterinary services branch of the Ontario Departâ€" ment of Agriculture. These inâ€" spectors would be responsible to the public through the elected government just as policemen and firemen are through the municiâ€" pal and other governments. _ _ in Kâ€"W reach Area director for the Western Ontario region is D.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR _ Local girl tops m views known to the government and their local members. Bill 194 protects pets, safeâ€" guards animal welfare, and it is humane to people too! Should many thousands of unwanted and unciaimed animais be killed when they are needed to cure and preâ€" vent diseases?‘ Should other dogs and cats be bred and raised at great public expense when far more than are needed are killed at our expense in the public pounds? It is a strange kind of humanâ€" ity which demands the killing of pound animals and yet is untouâ€" ched by the suffering of sick huâ€" mans and animals. Associate professor of physiology, Queen‘s University, Kingston. That picture of the governmnet and the church receiving recogâ€" nition for which both have paid dearly for centuriesâ€"was an anachronism which could have been taken seriously by only a few and which many could not view without a smile or even a sneer. Sir: The picture, taken at the fall convocation of Waterloo Lutheran University, showed the recipients of honorary doctorates, Mrs. Rolâ€" and Michener, Paulâ€"Emile Cardâ€" inal Leger and Dr. Frederick Minkler with Governorâ€"General Michener and university officials. They were adorned (that may be the only possible word) with the garh of scholars of a bygone era and a farâ€"off land. The caps and gowns have ne place in today‘s modern Canadian society. The wearers looked as uncomfortable as a lodge potentâ€" ate caught in full regalia by his fellow workers from the meatâ€" packing plant. Intellectuals have progressed from caps. and gowns to tweed with leatherâ€"patched elâ€" bows, to turtleâ€"neck sweaters and peace symbolsâ€"and beyond. Michener is a fine fellow. But this is a time when being a fine feliow fails to meet the needs of even the humblest position. In the case of a governorâ€"general, BROADLOOM AND ORIENTAL RUCS 742â€"9110 the image is as meaningless as the insulting title awarded its bearer. In this day of antiâ€"colonial and antiâ€"military feeling, we want neither a governor nor a general. Such appearances by our mildâ€" mannered governorâ€"general and his spouse may help to placate the Ruleâ€"Britannia crowd in this portion of the crumbling Empire but they do nothing to soothe the fever of our young republicans.

Such an image is the very antiâ€" thesis of a swinging young Canâ€" ada in a spaceâ€"age world, as epiâ€" tomized by that other fellow in standing sound. all transistor FM/AM/FM Stereo Multiplex radio with automatic frequency control for locked in signal fidelity.
