They were seeking support in their fight against the proposed dump in their come triunity by the City of London, The Board of Directors of the County Federation agreed to support the position taken by the ratepayers for the following reasons - 1. Prime Agricultural land should not be used for sanitary land fill. Everyone should be concerned about the disap- pearance of our most limited resource. 2. The emphasis should be on an alternative method of disposal as the problem of garbage is a mutual one for all Municipalities, 3. Expropriation of land by a large Corporate body from another Municipality for sanitary land fill seems to us morally wrong. Removing families from century farms is difficult to condone. The property owners involved proceeded to set up a committee to function with the Federation 11 1 1 iiiii IfilM111111111fillOn1H111111111.1fliM1111111111111j1 ii iiii 1.011.11 ,.1111 111.10111110.1,0fi.11.4.1.111,1,111 llllllll n,1 1, DALEY'S WEEKLY COMMENTS Important dates Church news Whalley, Lot 8, N.L.R.
