Another', situation which will re- quire some thought in the next few weeks is the question as to whether or not the Council will be able to make their usual dip in the sinking fund surplus whichduring the last few years has averaged, from $2,000 to 53,000.00. This is questionable as the Minister of Municipal Affairs has made a definite statement that no deficits are to be covered from sur- plus accounts. In short, for the dur- ation of the war councils or other municipal bodies are to operate on a pay-as-you-go basis. To sum the matter up, I feel that the Council have not been letting the public know what is going on this year. Yours truly, KEN. G. WATERS v AMONG THE CHURCHES Clinton Mission • Supt.
