Opposition Parties Urge

Broadening Of Grants To Needy Veterans & Widows

0'l'l'AWA. (CP) Opposition part- in in the Commons are unanimous in wanting the government to broaden its plans for increasing allowances to burned-out veterans. -All three opposition groups ex- pressed criticism Tuesday night as Veterans Affairs Minister Lapolnte announced the scale of increases offered by the government under the War Veteran's Allowances Act.

The bill he introduced provides a Z)-per-cent boost in payments to needy veterans and widows and or- phans of veterans. The maximum monthly payment to single veter- ans would be rnised to 360 from 850 a month and for married vets to 5108 from 590.

Criticism centred on the amount of additional earnings allowed be- fore the paymeuts are reduced.

The measure would increase per- missible ceilings on over-all in- come to 8640 from 8720 for single veterans and to 51,440 from 31,200 for those married.

SAY IT'S NOT ENOUGH

Opposition members promptly noted that the higher ceiling would permit single veterans no more than the extra 810 a month they now can earn in outside income without affecting their allowances. Married vets could earn 512 a month extra instead of S10.

Lt.-Col. Lapolnte said the changes will mean an additdional outlay of between 39.225000 and 39.500000 a year.

"It will raise appreciably the standard of living of many veter- ans," he said.

But Lt.-Col. llouglas H.-irkncss PC-Calgary North iermed it "a very nigglin: effort.”

The allowances were started

some 20 years ago with the stated Harmvme 11 3- "L Brwkfleld alaim of helning "huriicrl-out" vet- 5crans of active IIIII). All 3”? W9lC0m0- R9V- LBWFCM-'9 JZIIISE it was C0llSl1lPi'P(l ili.'ii trcuch warfare reduced the length - wage-earning life by 10 years.

TORONTO. rCP) - A Chicago real estate expert said Monday the apartment house is becoming obsolete except for housing the higher income group.

tization. most people will choose the house.

Mr. Downs spoke to delegates to the 33rd annual convention of the Ontario Association of Real Estate Boards.

Mr. Downs said he considered apartments within city limits. how- ever, sound ventures which will be occupied by families with a- hove-average incomes. But he was disturbed by the number of apartments being built in outly- ing districts.

He said when Canada seeks to stimulate housebuilding by re- ducing or eriminatlng down pay- ments. demand for apartment houses will decrease.
