' (AP Wirephoto) Toronto Exchange Plans -Tighter ReviewOf Firms By FORBES RHUDE Canadian Press Business Editor TORONTO (CP) -— Actions of companies listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange will be subject to stricter review under a' new ruling announced Wednesday. The ruling will require each listed company--except those spe- cifically exempted — to file with the exchange a report which will make “full, true and plain disclo- sure” before the company takes any action which will result in a material change in its business or affairs, including the making of any underwriting or option which might involve using the facilities of the exchange for primary dis- tribution of stock. Announcement of the ruling was made at a specially-called‘ meeting of the exchange in state- ments ‘by James G. K. Strathy, chairman of the board of govern- ors, and A. J. Trebilcock, presi- dent. DISTURBED BY CHANGES Mr. Strathy said the board has been considerably disturbed, pa- rticularly in recent months, con- cerning certain developments in connection with proposals for pri- mary financing through the facil- ities of the exchange and for other arrangeineuts by some listed companies. “The board is also perturbed,” Mr. Strathy added, “over the fact that in a number of demonstrated incidents, listed companies have recently disposed of very appre- ciable-cash assets for properties or securities of dubious value. This is, of course, a very uneth- ical, if not necessarily illegal; . practice. “These developments have been the subject of conversations be- tween the exchange and the On- tario securities commissipn and a number of arrests have been made. As these cases now are pending in the criminal courts, it l7-Ye-or Te-rm ,.For Bank) Ba-nclit BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) — Car- melo J. Giambra, an admitted bank robber who struggled with his guards and kicked at a pho- tographer before a scheduled court appearance a week ago, calmly accepted a 17-year prison term at his sentencing Wednesday. Giambra, 31, is an older brother of middleweight boxer Joey Gi- ambra. . The sentencing was postponed last week when Giambra, who pleaded guilty in the $23,775 hold- up of a neighborhood branch bank in 1956, created a scene in the ':ourthouse lobby. ‘ Four MenlM,issi«ng ln Helicopter HALIFAX (CP)-—Four men in a helicopter are missing in the'Knob Lake area of Eastern Quebec, RCAF search and rescue service reported Wednesday. _ The helicopter is operated by Spartan Air Services and carried survival equipment and food for a week. It disappeared Wednes- day morning. ’, Another S p a r t a n helicopter searched for the missing plane Wednesday but found nothing. Snow halted the search Wednes- day night.

Names of the missing men were not known here. is not possible to give further pa ticulars at this time.” I Mr. Strathy said the Toronto exchange’s new procedilre has been discussed with representa- tives of the Canadian Stock Ex- change of Montreal. There was complete agreement with the prin- ciples enunciated and similar re- quirements will be implemented by the Canadian Stock Exchange in the immediate ‘future. The report of filing statement required under the new ruling M11 be considered by the board of gov- ernors of the Toronto exchange and, if it is accepted for filing, the company will be advised that the plan may be carried out, an- nouncement will be made accord- ingly and a printed filing state- ment containing all the particul- ars will be made available to members, the press and the pub- lic. ‘ - If the statement is not accepted _for filing, it must not be pro- ceeded with—-otherwise the shares. of the company will be removed from the list. Mr. Strathy said: "In considering the report the board cannot be expected to pass .on the merits of every proposed change in the business or affairs of the company, or of every pro- posed underwriting, option, prop- erty purchase or other arrange- ment set out. “Any attempt to do so would be beyondthe jurisdiction of the exchange, and shareholders and the public must realize that it is for them to, judge the merits on the basis of full, true and plain disclosure which the company will be required to, mak .” Expect Government To-Spencl More On Def-ence Research By DAVE McINTOSH OTTAWA (CP) -- The gove§n- ment likely will -spend more on defence research in the coming fiscal year, informants said Wed- nesday. The increase would apply to the Defence Research Board’s regu- lar annual operating budget of $24,000,000 and to amounts, spent on specific projects for the armed forces. The Liberal government ear- marked $64,796,000 for these pur- poses in the fiscal year ending March 31. But the Progressive Conservative administration has already exceeded this estimate by $12,549,000. Officials said the $12,549,000 in- crease went for research and de- velopment in air defence, most of it on the supersonic CF-105 Ar- row, _to be test-flown for the first time early this year. , Two types of Soviet missiles are of particular concern to Can- ada: The intercontinental ballis- tic missile which the Russians claim to have test-fired success- fully, and the 500-mile missile carried by submarines. __STUDY SUB DETECTORS ‘Thus emphasis is being placed on developing a defence against the - intercontinental missile and improving underwater detection equipment. DRB scientists are conducting counter-missile research at Val- cartier, Que., Shirley’s Bay, near Ottawa and near Prince Albert, Sask. . At the naval research establish- ment at Dartmouth, N.S., the hunt goes on for better undersea detection systems. The services are expected to acquire anti - aircraft, anti - sub- marine and artillery rockets in the next two to three years. It wil1_be DRB’s responsibility to see they get the best from Amer- ican and British sources. Spraying For Buclworm A Depletes N. B. MONTREAL (CP)-—A fisheries‘ biologist said Tuesday young sal- mon in New Brunswick rivers are‘ severely depleted following DDT aerial spraying to combat spruce budworm. M. H. A. Keenleyside of the St. Andrews, N.B:, biological station, said “salmon populations appear to recover if spraying if not re- peated over the same areas for -an interval of at least three years. “With morp frequent respraying one age class of salmon can be affected more than once and smol-t production from rivers in the area will be seriously cur- tailed," Mr. Keenleys-ide said at the Northeast Wildlife Confer- ence. He said spraying also killed off young trout and eels.’ The younger the fish the more severely are they affected, both by DDT and by -the oil in which it is dissolved. In -the northeast Miramichi River, Mr. Keenleyside said, an annual census has been taken of young salmon since 1950. In 1953, a year before the first spraying, the 10 census stations on the river counted 1,200 fry——salmon less than a year old. FIND N0 FRY After the 1954 spraying, the stations found not one fry. Parr —salmon two and three years old -—were reduced Fish Stocks I Curiously, the next year the fry were more numerous than ever, Mr. Keenleyside said, but the parr——fry a year earl-ier—were scarce. It was believed the fry were more plentiful partly be- cause of less food competition from the parr. In spite of extensive a.nd costly control measures, Mr. Keen1ey- side said, the budworm popula- tion has continued to expand. . ST.

Miss Marina Brown employed Page 12, The Guardian By BRUCE LEVETT Canadian Press Staff Writer TORONTO (CP)—When a plan- tation worker in Ceylon is step- - ped on by an elephant or a Puerto Rican cane chopper nicks himself, it’s comforting to know that Ontario has the Work- _men’s Compensation Act. The connection? Puerto Rico has modelled its legislation on the Ontario plan. Ceylon and the Philippine Islands are drawing up similar plans now. Indonesia and Pakistan have it under study. In the ‘last year alone, 60 del- egations have come to Ontario from outside North America to study the plan generally recog- nized as one of the world’s best. MODEL FOR CANADA Pioneered by Ontario, it forms the basis for compensation to in- jured workmen in all other nine Canadian provinces. E. ‘E. Sparrow, former paint and varnish executive who be- came board chairman in 1948, admits: “We have gained some .meas- ure of leadership.” Evidence of this is that when Puerto Rico, the Philippines and Haiti — lands which look to the United States for leadership - came to North America to study the best compensation plan avail- able, the U.S. sent them north to- Ontario. “Probably the most attractive aspect of our act is that it takes compensation out of the courts enabling justice to‘be humanely and speedily administered,” Mr. Sparrow says. \ “Justice humanely and speedily administered" was the aim of Sir William'Meredith, a former chief justice of -Ontario. The act he drew up in 1915 was based on the most attractive legislation then in existence in England, the United States and Europe. , ' VIRTUALLY UNCHANGED Since then, the ct has been amended only to e end coverage or increase benefits. Two royal commission studies in the last 40 years have left it virtually intact: In Ontario, there are 1,750;,000 men and women covered by the act. Their coverage is paid for by 90,000 assessable employers, whose charges range from 15 roll for certain classifications of workmen in hazardous forest op- erations. Of the 252,248 accidents re- ported during 1956, 70,733 rated compensation, another 170,606 were covered by medical aid only. Claims totalling 10,909 were rejected. ’ . Benefits totalled $29,419,090. , Mr. Sparrow. with vice - chair- man J. F. Cauley and one com- hnissioner, Dr. E. C. Steele, form the three-man executive board of the workmen’: C o m p 0 nsation Board of Ontario. “None of us is a civil servant," Mr. Sparrow says. ’ (‘The labor minister speaks for us on the floor of the legislature. "We are divorced from politics and this gives us a smoothness of operation over the years." PAYMENTS To INJURED If an employee is off the job for more than four days as a re- sult of an injury,-he receives 75 per cent of his weekly pay based on average earnings during the prior four weeks, up to a max- imum of $72.11 a week. All med- ical and hospitals bills are paid and benefits continue as long as the disability lasts.

She receives a pension of $75 a month until death or re- marriage and the allowance for each child is $25 a month up to age 16. “Every employer in the prov- ince contributes a few cents in the event of a disaster,” Mr. Sparrow says. The board’s dis- aster ,fund is maintained ‘at $750,- 000. An example of how compensa- tion works, Mr. Sparrow said, was the cdse of a newspaper re- was paid 75 per cent, of his sal- ary while off work, his medical bills were paid and the board brought him an artificial eye. LIFE PENSION “Now, a one-eyed reporter is just as able as a reporter with two eyes,” Mr. Sparrow says, “but because he suffered a perm- anent, although partial, injury, he receives about 18 per cent of the 75-per-cent figure for life.” A noted blind singer’s case was another example. “The man was blinded in a welding accident, so because he is unable to return to his employ- ment, he will receive a pension for life.” In addition to medical and rehabilitation payments, the board spent $3,800 in singing les- sons. Another prime aim of the board is to prevent accidents happen- pened, to heal the injured work- man—-and 3,437 of the 64,438 com- pensatibn cases last year were women—then rehabilitate them and return them to work. To do this, a $6,000,000 treat- ment and rehabilitation centre is being built on the northern out- skirts of the city replacing the decrepit ‘former RCAF barracks which houses 500 patients at sub- urban Malton airport. 8041 s porter who lost an eye.
