Walkerton To Vote Soon
On New $90,000.00 School
Walkerton ratepayers will be ask-
ed to vote soon on a by-law for tite
purpose of erecting a new High
School at an estimated cost, with the
required equipment of $100,000, less
110 per cent., or $10,000 000 to be contri-
buted by the Provincial Government,
leaving it net amount of $90,000 to be
raised by the ratepayers, and repay-
able by debentures over a thirty-
! year
hirty-(year period at 33 or 4 per cent. This
was the decision reached at a joint
'meeting of the Town Council and the
'High School Board held in the School
on Monday night.
Such a move was found urgent

the rather poor condition of the pre-
sent building, which has been in con-

'which is found inadequate tit _carry

contract for $18,000 to provide a suit-
able addition to the Collegiate Insti-

NOT IN FAVOR OF RADIOS
IN SCHOOLS
Informed that a radio is now ap.
proved school equipment and under
new regulations subject to Govern
ment grant, the Middlesex Trustees
and Ratepayers' Association on Sat-
urday rejected a proposal asking the
Provincial Government to place a ra-
dio in every school in Ontario. •
At the same Mine it took steps to-
wards giving children in small -meal
schools equal educational opportuni-
ties with those afforded students in
large wealthy urban institutions.'
Holding their annual convention in
the city, hall auditorium, London, 150
official delegates joinedother groups
in the province in their aim to obtain
a greater Government aid for educa-
tion. Each of the seven main addrres
ses included pleas . for co-operation
and a "united front" so- that the "cen-
tral Government" would pay more
than 11.5c of every dollar expender"
for education in Ontario, Resolutions
adopted by the convention suppo•tei
proposals designed primarily to give
children of every section equal oppor-
tunities with those of every other sec-
tion.
The association supported Govern-
Ment policies by rejecting recommen-
dations that would abolish or even de-
crease summer courses for teachers.
It also turned down a suggestion that
the Hydro -Electric Power Commission
be asked to remove service charges

THE CLINTON NEWS -RECORD

COMMUNICATIONS
Dear Mr. Editor: -If ever e country
were dependent on transportation,
that country is Canada with its im-
mense area and relatively small popu.
lation; and it is equally true that
Canada is dependent on not just one,
but
onanrin
number of different types of
transportation Railways lake and
river steamers, airlines, motor trucks
and busses have all demonstrated that
they perform not only a useful but
necessary public service.
That there may be too much' com-
petition wiithin one or more of the a-
bove divisions of the transportation'
industry and also too much competi-
tion between some of thein is not de-
nied. The Cheerier Commission is the
latest body to be appointed to inquire
into the ills of our befuddled trans-
port industry anti it probably' won't
be the last. Discriminatory competi-
tive rates are alleged to be quoted by
the railways, and the railways in turn
claim that the original responsibility
for rate cutting belongs ko the truck
operators. In many instances it is
claimed or inferred by one or other of
the factions that rates are unecon-
omically low or below cost of service,
But regardless of the ills which
may be attributable to excessive com-
petition, the fact remains that any
solution of the eeuntry's transporta-
tion problems must be based on sat-
isfying public needs, and the public
by its patronage has conclusively
shown that all existing forms of
transportation are needed. The chief
problem therefore would seem to be
one .of co-ordination of these various
.forms. As between railways and
trucks, for instance, some hauls can
without doubt be done more"economi-
cally by trucks, whereas for others
the railways have the field to them-
selves. In a good many intermediate
distances the two . systems should
probably compete but not to the point
of reducing rates to uneconomically
low levels.
Reasonable, equitable taxation of
the competing systems is requisite
but one system should not be taxed
merely because it has taken some
business from another or is compet-
ing with another where formerly there
was no competition. All systems are
-necessary if the public is to be pro-
vided with adequate transportation
and the chief point to be kept in mind
is that the public is the chief loser
through any unfair, diseintinatory
taxation. -Win. A. Smart, 64 Donegal
Drive, Toronto.
"Speers, Sask., Nov, 21, 1937.
Rev. G. G; Burton, Clinton, Ont.
Dear Mr, Burton -No doubt you will
receive many notes of appreciation
from the people of Speers for car of
fruit and vegetables sent us by Clin-
ton district, but as president of United
Church Ladies' Aid here I feel I' must
add a word of thanks to you all.
This was a very difficult district in
which to distribute the things as
one family would have a fair garden
and could manage to' get through the
winter while the very next fancily
would not have a single thing. The
grasshoppers were somuch worse in
some places than others, and some of
us were in the path of a big hail storm
which gave us moisture our neighbors
did not get. Rev. T Musto, our min-
ister, 'was
inister,'was in charge of the car and
handled it splendidly, Up-to-date I
have not heard one complaint and
that is pretty good in a district where
it was unfair to give everyone the
same. . Ile had around 215 families
and foundout by phone just what
each one respired most. To those
who, said they could manage without
anything he sent apples so everyone
got' something and it was grand.
Especially where there was a number
of little children was their rejoicing
over the donation from the car.
We ere all looking forward to bet-
ter things next year. If ever the east
is in need (we hope you, never are)
may it be that the west will be in a
position to repay you for your great
kindness.
Wish more of the folies had put
names in things so we could thank
them personally.
\Vith sincere thanks, I am, Yours,
Mrs. E. E. Auckland"

A Carnegie Institution scientist pre-

red during the past week are likely to
recur in Iess thana month's time.
Such storms. which cause serious
interference with radio, 'telegraph ,and

due to. the occurrence of titanic vol-
