It‘s time for an Ontario Job Corps. There are thousands of worthy projects in Ontario. Parks need upkeep. Roads need maintenance and cleanups. Manâ€"made dustâ€" bowlis and abandoned farms need reforestation. Community centres and facilities need improvements, while governments waste millions in welfare to keep healthy men idle. This is folly for the taxâ€" payer and unhealthy for those on the dole. With government policy creatâ€" ing unemployment and increasâ€" ing automation, many unemployâ€" ed are out of work through no fault of their own. Ontario now makes grants to municipalities, but the situation 'ts steadily worse. The province should assume all welfare costs and establish an Ontario job corps. All ableâ€"bodied unemployed could be given work at the provincial minimum wage till economic conditions improve and they can get better paying jobs elsewhere. The money would be spent on welfare anyway; the taxpayers will get something for their taxes;, the jobless can have some garding education. i; * : k Some small but a&gnie schools have been comple abanidoned; some sold to individual owners for homes, and others to organizaâ€" tions for club activities: adequate. From the teachers‘ standpoint, the new system relieved them of ‘: heavy responsibilities of teachâ€" four grades per instructor. I wonder which is worseâ€"the tremendous expense incurred by the newlyâ€"adopted system, or the heavy load previously borne by rural teachers. | Readers‘ letters to the,editor | Rural citizens resent the fact that their children are piled into buses and sent to larger schools in central locations.

Vandalism mounted to several thousand dollars a year. Just keep on cutting down on manpower, make one man do two men‘s work and put the surâ€" plus on welfare with more inâ€" come than the working man. Here in Kitchener, we have graduated students demanding groceries plus a place to eat them and they are getting what they want without working. Let‘s throw in the towel. HERBERT E. SCHMIDT Mr. Stephenson came here from Brampton, where he was assisâ€" tant manager. Prior to that he held a similar post in the Burlingâ€" ton branch of Canada Trust. The boys at the top thought they could make this a oneâ€"man operation. They laid off the conâ€" ductors who are now on welfare. Then they tell us that the unâ€" employed totals are getting higher and higher. Where did we save? We have men walking the streets looking for work â€" men to whom we are paying welfare because there is no work for them, but we have a lot of places where someone is doing the work of two men beâ€" cause some idiot at the top thought he could save money by cutting down on the help. In Toronto, cash fares are also requested at certain busy interâ€" sections but they have women out there in uniform, rain or shine, selling tickets or tokens to the customers. Thomas L. Stephenson has takâ€" en up duty as manager of the Linâ€" coln Plaza branch of Canada Trust. was a pleasure to know that at least one person took the time out to put his opinion of our transportation system on paper. I am old enough to know when the trolley buses were purchasâ€" ed. Previously, the street cars had a conductor and a motor man. One drove and the conducâ€" tor collected the money. The same thing happened with garbage collection. Oneâ€"man garâ€" bage collection trucks were put in operation. One man drives the truck and also picks up the garbage. My point, however, is that the people in charge of the public transportation have no right to tell a person to get off the bus if they have not the exact change. The citizens still own this sysâ€" tem and don‘t have to be told when and how they can ride on it. work and we can abolish ‘welfare for the ablebodied. Â¥# Mount Albert. Ont. It from the government. We were given guidelines on the: amount of Canadian and U.S§S. talent which might be carried on radio and TV.

Hate Literature bill and the Davey Commission disperse our money and possesâ€" sions after death. Jean Louis Gagnon‘s Information Canada even launched a program of guidelines on what we would be permitted to know about govâ€" ernment‘ Along the way, we have lost sight of those guidelines which founded and fashioned this landâ€" the guidelines of God‘s word, the Bible, the eternal verities, the 10 commandments, the golden rule, the inalienable right to life (including the life of the unâ€" born), the guidelines of a day‘s work for a day‘s pay, of parental authority and common courtesy among men. The country which chooses to forget or overlook these guideâ€" lines, overlooks its divine origin and purpose. When this happens, all the guidelines on prices and wages are to no avail as citizens stumble around helplessly in a morass of humanism and dogâ€" eatâ€"dog selfâ€"interest. what we m‘mt earn and keep, exâ€" pand our iness operation or SUITS or DRESSES ...........
