Cha s general Council discusses the situation by Gene Telpner an atmosphere of watchful waiting dominated the opening of the 95th annual meeting of the Canadian medical association monday in Winnipeg waiting to see what would happen in Saskatchewan. Although there w a s a fairly Large delegation of Saskatchewan doctors at t h e convention apparently there was an agreed upon silence about what was Hap pening in the province at least until after monday s Federal elec Tion. Or. H. Dalgleish president of the Saskatchewan College of physicians and surgeons indicated he might have something to say tuesday but hardly be fore. Observers from More than 14 newspapers and at least one Magazine were in Winnipeg in Quiring about Saskatchewan and the doctors attitudes. Open secret monday morning the association s general Council met at the Royal Alexandra hotel and Al though its reports Are not made Public until completion it was an open secret that the Saskatchewan situation was on the Agenda. A medical source said it would be difficult for a doctor who did t have first hand experience with the activities of the Saskatchewan government and the professional climate in the pro Vince to Analyse what was Hap pening. Those of you who Are Fortun ate enough to live in a province where a Friendly and co opera Tive spirit prevails Between the medical profession and the government should t judge events in Saskatchewan of your stand Ards. No such spirit of co opera Tion exists in Saskatchewan and the prevailing the government toward doctors would not inspire your the source said. Called Misnomer the Saskatchewan medical care insurance act is slated to take effect. July 1. The act s title has been labelled a Misnomer by some doctors because the Legisla Tion did t represent insurance in the Normal accepted it represents rather an ingenuous method of controlling doctors and the practice of medi Cine in a political economic and legislative said one medi Cal spokesman. He also said the act gives the Saskatchewan s provincial Cabinet and the medical care commis Sion there Powers far beyond those necessary to run an insurance plan. It was not beyond the Powers of the commission to decree the hours during which a doctor s office would be open the number of patients he would see in a Day or the number of times he might treat a patient for any Given condition. The act the medical spokes Man charged provided economic control of the profession. Econ Omic control was present when Ever any Agency government or private became the sole Biyer and seller of medical service the Community or any other ser vice for that matter he said. Although controls were written into the act the Saskatchewan government apparently had in formed doctors they would not be used the source said. To this the doctors had replied if the controls Are not to be used Why were they written into the the spokesman said it is the profession s opinion that the health of their patients and their professional integrity Are too important to depend upon the pro Mises of anyone s guess what will happen after the election was anyone s. Guess but the attitude expressed monday by the medical spokesman was that Man drowns swimming in Assiniboine a 25-year-old Manitoba Man drowned sunday afternoon in the Assiniboine River. Ramp said John Sawchyshyn of the Birdtail Man. District drowned while swimming in the liver one mile West of St. Lazare Man. His body was recovered at . Coroner or. M. Pasyniuk of Birtle has ordered an autopsy. No decision on an inquest has been reached. From a Legal and practical View Point the doctors of Saskatchewan have concluded it was not possible them to carry on their practices outside the act and they would not accept ser vice under the act. The spokesman said the feel ing was still Strong As of Mon Day that the great majority of doctors offices in Saskatchewan would be closed on july 1, with emergency services provided by Hospital based teams of doctors. When would Normal practice of Medicine occur to that question the spokesman replied when the profession is assured that government legislation will be withdrawn and that the govern ment is willing to sit Down and discuss ways and Means of introducing programs of insurance for Saskatchewan residents rather than programs of control for Saskatchewan 1 in 6 school bus Drivers fail vehicle Branch test the motor vehicle Branch has examined Manitoba school bus Drivers failed one i six and ordered a variety of improve ments in privately owned school vehicles. Nearly All those who failed have been reinstated after Spe Cial training though several such As the Man who apparently made a practice of racing with trains have been ordered to Stop driving children to school.

In Case of fire or Acci Dent the children simply could t get out said a spokesman in the Branch. In this Case the operator was told to provide windows and a better latching system on the door. In other cases half ton trucks used to transport children were found which carried boxes fixed on with one or two bolts. These were ordered strengthened. But there was Little else the Branch could do because there Are fewer specific regulations controlling privately awned school buses. The Law merely requires that they carry a sign and have proper Stop Ping signals. The province wide crackdown on school buses and their Drivers began two years ago when after a complaint the Branch gave the Hurt As tire being filled blows up Woody Gauthier. 44, manager and owner of custom sales and service. 505 King Street trans Cona suffered and leg in juries at about 8 .
