cent. The average per-
centage increase allowed by
the arithmetic guidelines
(taking into account the
basic protection factor of
eight per. cent, the national
productivity factor of two
per cent and the experience
adjustment factor of plus or
minus two per cent) is 11 per
cent, That means of all those
AIB forms received, the
average compensation
increase requested was 1.1
per cent above the arith-
metic guidelines.
Compensation cases
where the wage settlement
is in excess of the guidelines
are considered by the seven

‘members of the Anti-

Inflation Board. As of May 6
this Board had considered
457 cases representing
148,411 employees including
302 cases in the privale
sector with 96,083 employees
and 155 eases. in the public

sector with 52,328 em--
pioyees.

The average increase
sought in the cases dealt
with by the full board was
17.19 per cent. The arith-
metic guidelines permitted
an average increase of 10.43
per cent, ar an average
increase in excess of the
guidelines of 3.92 per cent.

In the private sector, the
average increase sought
was 15.27 per cent and the
arithmetic guidelines.
permitted 9.82 per cent.
‘Full Board’ decisions
resulted in reductions to an
average 13.18 per cent for an
average increase of 3.36 per
cent above the guidelines.

Tn the public sector, the
average increase sought

The figures for the public
sector include cases
covering some 40,000 On-
tario secondary school
teachers where increases
averaging 18.67 per cent
were allowed by the Board,
primarly on the basis of
maintaining reasonabl
competitive salaries wit
the two-thirds of Ontario
school: boards’ which had
signed agreements before
the, anti-inflation program
was announced.

Jn. the public sector,
excluding teachers, the
Board had consideered 93
cases representing 22,208
employees. The Board

. decisions have resulted in

an average increase of 13.19
per cent which is 1.77 per
cent above the avearage
guideline of 11.42. The in-
crease sought on an average
was 16.11 per cent.

Included in the above

) Encephalitis carrier mosquitoes

on increase.

“Because of warnings by
public officials that en-
cephalitis-carrying
mosquitoes may reappear

this summer, S.C. Johnson.
is undertaking a iow-key

information campaign to
provide the media and the
ublic with useful in-
formation so that camping,
picnics. and other outdoor.
activities can continue to be
aved Canadian
families” according to J.E.
Cullen, Technical Director.
The St, Louis Strain of
encephalitis is carried by
mosquitoes of the Culex
Pipiens variety, not the
flood-water mosquitoes of
early spring-which is why
the disease makes headlines

‘in late July and August. The

disease runs a tight bird
mosquito cycle in some

-areas horses act as hosts for
. other strains of encephalitis.

Infected birds, whether
local or migratory, are
bitten by mosquitoes
carrying the disease and in
turn, infect other‘birds. The

birds themselves are not a
hazard nor are all birds
necessarily carriers.
However, infected birds act
as hosts to pass the disease
organism. to other
mosquitoes.

The disease appears to be
on the increase, although, no
one seems to know whether
it will continue to increase in
Canada or even if it will
return every year. A
University of Toronto
medical entomologist, Dr.,
Susan McIver, said recently
that she believes the virus
has now been established in
the bird and mosquito

ulation. This appears to

e true, particularly in -

Ontario and the western

“pravinces.

For personal protection,
there are insect repellents
formulated to repel
mosquitoes before they land
on the body. Fluorocarbon-
free sprays can be used on
clothing and exposed skin to
provide a thin, uniform
protective. film. For ad-

ditional protection, use &
personal insect repellent
and insecticice spray oF
fopger in the yard and
around bushes, or in the
woods. Camping enthusiasts
and hikers should use a
heavy-duty repellent for
extra tough biting fly
problems. And all types
should be used only aller
reading the label in-
structions. :
