Home My WebLink AboutThe Blyth Standard, 1972-08-09, Page 1West Wawanosh sets m i l l rate Township drains were a main topic of discussion at the August meeting of West Wawanosh town- ship council held last week in the township hall. Two by-laws were passed by council to cover changes in the Rintoul drain. One covered in- creased costs above the engin- eer's estimates and the other additional work, William Shifflett of the engin- eering firm of Gamsby and Mennerow was in attendance at the meeting and discussed with council several drainage prob- lems including the Dungannon Drainage Works. The mill rate for the coming year was set at 15.35 for farm and residential and 18.78 for commercial and industrial. This is the same as last year. IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII Theatre painting to begin Monday A large number of volunteers together With members of the Blyth Recreation Committee and the Blyth Board of Trade turned out Tuesday night at Memorial Hall to put the theatre in shape for painting. With so many helping hands, a great deal of work was com- pleted in a few hours, With the clean up well under way, effort can now be turned to painting, Another work bee has been planned for Monday night when everyone is asked to show up with a paint brush or roller to help out, Interest in the project seems to behigh, Already a number of donations have been received through the Bank of Commerce and the names of the donors will be published next week, A number of teen- agers turned out to help Tues- day night, IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII11I11II1111IIIIIIIIII1I111111111II1111III11111111I111 VOLUME 82 - No, 32 No- road blocks foreseen Wednesday, August 9, 1972, St•t 'through' tactorylo -De close�po'rmanentW Blyth village council moved Monday night to help a local industrialist out of a sticky problem, George Hubbard approached council for help after he found a long -forgotten street ran right through his factory on Dinsley Street, The street, which runs'south from Dinsley runs through the H. L. Hubbard Ltd. turnip plant about where the cold storage area is situated. Mr. Hubbard told council that the building was apparently in two parts originally but had been joined together at some time before he acquired the factory several years ago, The part joining the two buildings is the part on the street allow- ance, After a good deal of good- natured kidding at Mr, Hubb- ards expence, council agreed to look into the matter as soon as possible, A by-law will likely have to be drawn up on the matter, Council was not so good- natured however when it came to .a decision on whether or not to agree to help finance, with the Public Utilities Comm- ission, a new well and pump and new auxiliary motor and pump for emergencies, The ire of the councillors was especially raised on the Federation to continue telephone fight The Huron Federation of Ag- riculture has not given up yet in its fight to gain large toll- free calling areas in the north- ern part of Huron County, a spokesman said Thursday night. George Underwood, R, R. 1, Wingham, chairman of the Federation's telephone comm- ittee said the Federation was "most disappointed at the re- action of Bell Canada" after Bell had told the Ontario Fed- eration of Agriculture the failure of Bell to win govern- ment approval for increases in telephone rates which the company had asked for would ,nean Bell would not be able to afford to expand services for the next few years. This news seemed a blow to the attempt of the HFA to have calling areas in the north- ern part of the county enlarged. At present, free -calling areas in northern Huron are much smaller than elsewhere mean- ing increased telephone bills for most customers due to large long-distance calling charges. The Huron farm group began its battle last August when Harry Baaker of Londesboro ask- ed the Federation to see what it could do to have the areas en- larged. The Federation circulat- ed petitions in the area and found strong support, both among the people and among municipal councils. The petitions were then presented to Bell. Mr. Underwood said that Bell employed people to scrupulously go over the petitions to make sure each name was a bonafide telephone subscriber. He indic- ated, however, that the teleph- one committee had also found places where Bell had made errors. "We're not through yet" Mr, Underwood said. He said the committee lgad arranged a meeting with Murray Gaunt, M. P. P. for Huron -Bruce and would keep fighting until it won the larger area, In other business at. the August meeting of the Federat- ion held in Clinton, the county federation approved a plan put forward by the OFA which would turn over refunds from CIAG insurance to the OFA to help pay the cost of setting up area offices such as the one in Clinton. Under the plan, the county federation would than keep all money from township grants and levies for work with- in the county, rather than pass on a part to the OFA for use at the provincial level. This would mean a slight saving for the Huron Federation, The county now pays over $6000 in affiliation fees to the OFA and receives about $5700 from the CIAG. Under the new plan the OFA would get $5700. A letter was read from Grant' Wallace of OFA office which clarified the situation on elm tree removal grants and income tax. Mr. Wallace had asked for a ruling from income tax offic- ials on the grants and was told that they were not to be consid- ered as part of a farmer's in- come and that expenses incurred in elm tree removal could not be considered a legitimate expenc e. Huron will contribute funds and help staff a tent for the OFA at the International Plowing match in September near Stratford. matter of the auxiliary pump- ing system, Fred and Jim Howson of Howson and Howson Ltd. had approached council earlier to ask council to pro- vide a better emergency pump- ing system. At present, there is an auxiliary diesel motor which can be used to pump water but this is a manual operation and must be switched on if the regular pumping system fails, The new system would mean the diesel engine would cut in automatically if the power failed or if pressure in the water mains dropped suff- iciently, This would provide increased safety in case of fire, particularly far businesses with sprinkler systems installed in their buildings, After the earlier meeting with council, the matter was referred to the PUC for a recommend- ation, The PUC is in charge of waterworks in Blyth. The PUC, however, passed the matter back to council without a recommendation and the councillors felt the PUC was trying to duck respons- ibility on the issue for fear of raising hard feelings. The councillors, however, reviewed the situation and after becoming convinced that the Continued on page IC Stream study is an important part of the work being performed by Junior Conservationists this summer.

(Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources photo) Local girl in conservation program Velma Fear of R; R. 3, Blyth is one of only eight girls taking part in the 1972 Junior Conservat- ionists program in Ontario. The program, for which the teenagers must have an avid int- erest in natural environment backed up with a lot of hard work, also has 24 boys taking part, The students, all between 16 and 18 years old, are spending their summer working, (and playing) in four of Ontario's 38 conservation authorities, The Junior Conservationist Award Program is sponsored by the Ministry of Natural Resources. It has been under the direction of the Conservat- ion Authorities Branch since its inception in 1966 when 10 students participated in the first program. Including this year's participants, 159 students have been involved in the pro- ject. To be eligible for the educat- ion -work experience, the stud- ents must be nominated by such resources -oriented organizations as boy scouts, girl guides, 4-H clubs, conservation authorities, naturalists clubs, etc. The stud- ents must also have proven records of personal involvement in some outdoor enterprises. All told, the students spend six weeks in the program, the first at the Albion Hills Conservation Area where they received an intensive education course in such resource management tech- niques as map reading, water pollution testing, compass read- ing, basic forestry and surveying. Upon completion of the course, they were divided into four group; to work independently on their assigned projects. Velma, and the other seven girls, are working together in the Saugeen Valley Conservation Authority where they are living in a 100 -year-old farmhouse without electricity. The students put in a normal, hard day's work six days a week for which they are paid five dollars per day plus room and board. In their spare time they have plenty of opportunities to learn more about the environ- ment and its preservation and conservation. They also have time for varied outdoor recreat- ion activities from fishing to canoeing, from swimming to hiking to camping out. The program is under the gen- eral supervision of co-ordinator Paul Attack of Huttonville, a graduate of environmental stud- ies at the University of Waterloo. ;Each project group has a . qualified senior leader. "The Junior Conservationist Award Program has proven to be an excellent means of introduc- ing serious, conservation -minded young people to the day-to-day resource management situation in Ontario," commented Natur- al Resources Minister Leo Bern- ier. "We are pleased to provide these students with this opport- unity, and we are confident that the experience will stand them in good stead in achieving any aspirations they may have in this field.

August 9, 1972. thndard/ Ed itotlaIs SOBER UP MATE, A WOMAN ALE'S,��,, LIKETFAT COULD`BE � ,t (ER DOWNFAI.I,- 'r 1 An: 'A' for norve The National Farmer's Union has been -called many things, but never humble, There must be no other organization in -Canada which gets as higNlnarks for having sheer nerve, as the NFU. Take for instance the, latest move of the farm organization which was reported in newspaper last week; the drive of the NFU to be- come the sole bargaining agent for all farmers in Canada, Now just saying it hoped to reach this goaltook quite a bit of nerve; but expecting to accomplish the attempt in the next six . months has to earn the award for something, For one thing, farmers in Ontario have never been able to agree on anything let alone getting both Eastern and Western farmers to agree. And if farmers were going to give full bar- gaining power to any group, it would not be to the NFU. Farmers in Canada are just too conservative to support a rad- ical group like the NFU on a mass scale, The NFU now claims a wide following of people who are almost fanatical in their support for the organization. But for every NFU supporter in this province, there are five farmers who would about as soon quit farming as become a member of the union. The war in Ontario between the Ontario Federation of Ag- riculture and the NFU has been going on for many years now and appears it will go on for many more, Certainly, the farmers would be better off if there was one voice when it came to dealing with government but they have already turn- ed down one attempt at this several years ago in the GFO vote. The NFU was the main opponent of the GFO because it wanted, even at that time, to represent all farmers in the country. Although the farmers turned down the GFO, they have not given much support to the NFU since that time either. It is obvious, that most farmers just cannot support the NFU so it will not become the voice of rural Canada. But it stubbornly refuses to have any part of compromise with any other farm movement and therefore makes any union of farm groups im- possible. As long as the NFU continues its stubborn course, farmers in Ontario will never have a strong, representative voice, High cel 01 useless knoIe�ge Most Canadians are probably relieved at the federal govern- ment's plan of action in the LeDain commission reports on non-medical use of drugs. The government, of course, refused to go along with the commission report that marijuana should be legalized. This was what the vast majority of Canadians felt was the right move, so in a way it was the democratic thing to do, But the less obvious problem is: how long will governments continue to appoint commissions which hold extensive and • expensive hearings, reach a decision and submit a report, only to have the report ignored almost completely. This has happened not only with the LeDain report but with so many other commission reports it's impossible to name them all. A commission, of course, is a very useful delaying tactic for politicians. Today, the Trudeau government just calls a commission while 1S years ago, the favourite ploy of John Diefenbaker was to call a Royal Commission, which sounded more impressive and was even more expensive, The comm- ission helps the politicians duck an issue while it's hot. They can appear to take action on an urgent matter while actually hiding in the bushes until things cool down and they can see which way public opinion is leaning on the matter. Politicians have to face the music, however, when the re- port finally becomes public, although as we have seen lately, it may take awhile for the report to reach the surface in the beaurocratic sea of red tape. So o often however, especially under the present government, there has either been no action cr the legislation formulated from the report has been nothing like the recommendations of the report. The LeDain commission report is one that has been practic- ally ignored and the Gray report on foreign ownership was well watered-down before it was introduced as legislation, The reason is, of course, that the recommendations were un - exceptable to the majority of Canadians in the first case, and the majority of businessmen in the second, It's easy to see the reasoning behind the changes, but one must wonder why all that money has to be spent in the first place when the government knows it can only go so far with any legislation, "Myth +CNA MOW assocctwn KEI1111, ROULSTON, Publisher JILL ROULSTON, Assistant 'editor Published every Wednesday at Queen Street, Blyth, Ont, Subscription rates (in advance) Canada: $6.00 Outside Canada: $7,00 Single cop es;I 15 cents each Second cl ass mailing registration number 1319 Box 10, Blyth phone 523-9646 f.r.�rt�l }.{•�; ;; v.t:$: `{.\v r:{::� •'r''' ' 'ir$ 1 $}fo�f�+,w::ttk•:.,.fJw �;�,'c�J,'�n�i:ii�>xr:.ar r:,�;::t;%cwt�r$/, Froni lJIflhIOW by SHIRLEY J. KELLER I shouldn't be writing this column to -night. I'm in one of those black moods after a long bad day, and this column isn't likely to come off light and cheering as it is intended. What caused my dim outlook on life to -day? No, dear read- ers, it was not my children. For once I can honestly say that ,ny children have been of little problem to me this week. After last week, there's nothing left for then to get into and what's more, they're worn out from their recent escapades. They are resting, getting set for the next round. And it isn't my job. I've learn- ed that every worker has ups and downs and Pm not immune, I'm growing quite accustomed to headaches and complaints --- and I can go home after a trying day and sleep like a baby with- out giving one thought to my daily shift at the salt mine, My husband is not the cause of my depression. He's seldom any problem to me, when it comes right down to it. He's really more than I deserve, At least, that's what he always tells me, No, the root of my trouble is in my conscience. I'm filled with guilt feelings because I've been doing such a lousey job lately in the housewife depart- ment. Pm not the kind of a woman who goes hysterical if the beds aren't made or the dishes washed. If the afternoon movie is good and I'm at home, I can sit right beside a basket of iron- ing until the last tear has been jerked from my heart. But then, after the movie is over, I like to get up and fly around the house, getting as much done as I possibly can before it is time to begin supper. I stuff garbage into bags and clothes into closets and papers into drawers at lightning pace until the house on the surface looks neat as What COMBS now ? With citizens already in a turmoil over the imposition of reg- ional government by the Provincial Government, one wonders what to make of the government's recent decision to abandon the economic regions such as the Midwestern Ontario Develop- ment Council. The government announced some time ago that it will with- draw its financial support for these councils at the end of the year. Since the councils were financed mainly by the province, it means almost certain death for the 10 councils which the gov- ernment appointed 18 years ago. There will be few local politicians who will be sorry to see MORDC go down the drain. There has been some question in the past year just what the council was doing for Huron. Huron county council did a lot of soul searching before it agreed, last spring, to join the council for another year. The main problem was that the economic councils were tools of the Toronto beurocrats and politicians. Any governing body, to be successful, must have grassroots support. But the ordinary voter, indeed even municipal councils, didn't have the slight- est idea what MODRC was all about, Looking back, it seems that the economics councils were just a way for the Provincial government to break the idea of region- al government a little easier to the local people. In almost every case so far the boundaries of the regions set up as regional governments, have corresponded exactly with the economic council boundaries for the area. If such is the case, what does the latest,government move mean? Does it mean the government has softened it stand on regional government and is willing to let local governments . continue to operate but under a loose regional plan? Or does it mean that the government has decided, in its own wierd wisdom, that the regions it had earlier set up are not big enough and that 1 now it will have only five'huge regional governments in the province? The way the government operates, the latter seems more prob- able, but we can only wait and see. One thing is sure: when it comes to regional government, the provincial government holds all the cards. If we win any concessions at all, it will be be- cause they feel gracious enough to give them. The people of Ontario handed the Davis government the right to rule as it sees fit, with little opposition, for the next four years. By the time the next election comes, regional government is likely to be an accomplished fact in most of the province and the battle to retain local autonomy will be lost. pin. When husband arrives home, everything looks ship- shape. He's relaxed, Pm at ease and no one is any wiser. Sooner or later, though, things begin to pile up. Nothing is the same, I can't hide it any longer. The house needs a major clean- up and I get depressed. Thus my black mood of to -day, I've just taken stock of the sit- uation. I figure that to put the house back in shape, I need two weeks and enough energy to move mountains, But I know myself better than that -- so, at the best of going it will take me two months to get things back to normal. Quick calculation brings that to mid- October and Thanksgiving is looming, Next cones Christ- mas and winter and furnace dust and closed windows. At this point logic takes over. Why, I ask myself, would any- one spend time and effort housecleaning when it is so obvious it won't stay that way? What's the sense in that? Then comes the next thought process, Why not move? Maybe a smaller house, a newer house a sunnier house would be easier kept. Maybe I wouldn't let it get in such a state if it was more modern with less closets and corners and hiding places to clutter. Moving is a real hassle, though, I recall, It entails hours of hard work, plenty of bucks for new drapes and rugs because the old ones never fit and more money for stove hookups., lawyer's fees and the inevitable changes to suit the family. No, moving . isn't the answer. It is definitely not the route to take just be- cause one doesn't want to face housecleaning. There's no way around it, I think, -- Housecleaning is an absolute must -- but why wash woodwork that needs painting so badly? Why dust walls that are drab? Why not contem- plate redecorating parts of the house and let the paper- - hanger and the painter do all the hard work? Which rooms would I like to see done, I ask myself. Well, the hall could use a facelifting. And our daughter's room. And our son's hangout. And the livingroom, New drapes and some lamps would dress up the family room, Some new curtains in the bath- room. The elation soon fades as stark reality hits me in the eye. Who can afford it? So the black mood prevails be- cause no matter which way I slice it, the future holds house- cleaning of the deep -down type -- and that's as depress- ing as anything can be, THE BLYTH STANDARD, August 9, 1972, PG, 3, Federation of Agriculture seeks drainage meeting The Huron Federation voted Thursday night in Clinton to seek a, meeting of the Ontario .' Legislature's Select Committee on Land Drainage in Huron,' - The committee,was setup: June 30 by the Ontario Govern- - ment to,look into all aspects' of, municipal drains. John Soldan, R. R,1, Zurich, who made the motion to call for the meeting, sited the prob. le is with engineering as one of the major reasons why such ' an investigation is needed. He said.the government inquiry - was a. good' idea and that "it should have been -done long ago".

It is hoped, if we can have the co- operation of the weatherman, to have the band again, some- time, for a concert on the lawn. Under the present conditions, it is difficult to get the goods 'to the Carribean and so the buyers turn to U, S, suppliers.

It was pointed out the pump would serve in any emergency and would also be important in helping attract new industries. Council was also unhappy about the fact that the PUC did not make a solid rec-r ommendation about the need for a new well, although it had indicated that one was needed and that the PUC did not have the funds to finance it. The well would be an 18 inch well and with pump and accessories, the cost would run to $15,000, This, along with the cast of the PUC has only enough money to pay about $6000 of the total, Council decided to invest- igate financing of the well and try to get construction under way so the well can be com- pleted before winter. Council also decided on re- construction of several streets in the next few weeks with additional work to be done if costs do not rise too high on the first projects, Two new lights are to be installed on Dinsley Street near Hamm's Garage. George Hamm was present at the meeting to ask council for the lights.

GODERICH 'PONTIAC - BUICK - CADIILAC - GMt 524 -6591 I've suddenly discovered that my wife isn't such a lazy bum after all, and that most women aren't ap- preciated by their husbands. Last week I wrote an idyllic column about how peaceful and beautiful it was at Grandad's, out in the :ountry, overlooking the bay, quiet, restful and all that guff, It wasn't guff at the time, but it is now. It's neither peaceful or quiet around here, though it's still beautiful, Yes, we're still here. On the eve of our departure, my silly old woman stepped out of the car, twisted her silly old ankle and broke the silly old thing. We didn't know it until next day. I thought it was probably a bad sprain. But on the morrow it was the shape and colour of a fully matured beet, so off to the hospital for X-rays. That was quite an experi- ence. It was one of those dripping hot days, and also a Saturday. Normally, a small-town hospital is a pretty quiet place, But on a Saturday afternoon in mid- summer, in tourist country, the emergency ward is a bit of a mad -house. We were lucky, The girl at the desk had gone to school with my wife and had our names written down before I could open my mouth. Another school friend is a nurse, and though off duty, came in and help- ed in many ways, There was one `doctor and one medical student on the job. In poured the pa• • tients, and I couldn't help admiring the way the staff coped, in the appalling heat. I hope Doc Leeson, an- other old friend, had his breakfast that morning, be- cause he certainly didn't have any lunch, Here's an Indian girl with a sick baby. Here's a twelve -year-old boy being carried in by a wor- ried father. The boy has cut his leg badly. Tourists. Here's a young kid who has burned his hand badly. Here's a young fellow with his hand all mangled. Here comes a very pregnant lady, just about ready to pop. I see the doc in the of- fice, a cup of coffee he's trying to snatch held in one hand, phone in the other. I know it's a bad one, because he's lost his joking, jovial, personal manner and looks grave, Two orderlies and the medical student tear down the hall in the direction of the ambulance garage. Run- ning, flat out. Sure enough, it is a bad one. Plane crash just a few miles out of town, The doc can't leave. He has to read X-rays, bandage wounds and deliver a baby, But he phones for help at the accident scene and goes right back to work, He's dis- Now turbed, because he's a flying buff himself, But he doesn't show it, He goes right on toiling with ailing humans, joking, call- ing them by their first names, doing six things at once, (Later he told me there were two killed father and son, in the crash.) He finally got a look at my wife's X-rays, cheerfully told her yep, it was broken, and swiftly and skillfully made and slapped on a walking cast. The nurses, though run- ning in all directions, found time to put herr in a wheel- chair, get us out to the car, and loaned us a walker, a thing you push ahead of you, hopping on one foot. What a difference from the impersonality, and even Inefficiency so often found in a big city hospital. There, too, there are dedicated people doing their best, but there's a mass of paperwork, a coldness, a lack of inti- macy that is rather off-put- ting. Well, I've digressed, but the hospital scene impressed me deeply, It's the way a hospital should be: friendly, concerned, and with a mini- mum of red tape. Anyway, the old girl is lying on the chesterfield with her leg propped up and feeling furious and frustra- ted. She's the type who does everything in the house at about eighty miles an hour, and the speed at which I do them, about one-tenth of that, is driving her insane. Every time she remem- bers that she's going to be THE BLYTH STANDARD, August 9, 1972, PG, 11. know it was all guff hobbling for six weeks, can't go swimming or play golf, can't get at her wash- ing, she gets angrier.

Heaven forbid. Except for a brief return to the place of former glory dur- ing a high school assembly, I haven't been on stage since my glorious starring role in the Luck - now Public School Grade 3 play at a Christmas concert nearly 20 years ago. Oh I was a star: my mother, grandmother, aunt and uncle and all our close friends said so. Such poise; such a voice; such a talent. What they didn't know, was that the dumb kid was so scared it took a lot of will power to keep dry pants. box until my cue came. Then Back in those days of the height; I would jump up and do my of my career, I learned the ' bit. troubles one must go through to P 11 never know just how be a star, My first Christmas many hours I spent in that darn - concert I showed my musical ` ed box during rehearsals while talents. That was the year we every kid in the class acted out had the Grade 2 rhythm band. their parts and had to repeat to be a hitch or two. First there were lines to learn and I said those darn rhyming lines over so many, times I still find myself mumbling them e i (night- mares, e on es tm in dreams s ( g mares, of course). Then too, there was the • makeup. I had to dress in this stupid clown costume and have my face painted. Yuk, did I hate that paint, especially the lipstick they used for the over sized mouth (I don't know why they had to make MY mouth bigger). But most of all there was the most important part of my per- formance. I was to play this jack-in-the-box and was to sit quietly in this huge grocery I played the drums. I remem- ber I really liked that and even thought of making a career out of it until my mother's solemn edict that if ever someone gave any of her children a set of drums they should never again set foot in her house for fear of life and limb. So, there I was, seven years old and already thrown into a quandry about my future. But by the time the concert was over, I was just as glad to forget about my musical amb- itions anyway. You see I had to theatre because you don't want stand right beside the two to give that Roulston fellow a cymbals players.

However, there proved ition is stepping aside, them until they got their lines right, Between those intermin- able rehearsals and the show itself, I spent so many hours in that blankety-blank box that I still get claustophobia every time I go into a dark closet. That effectively ended my acting career, except as I said earlier, for a short return to the stage during high school when I botched the punch line of the whole skit. So now you know that you don't have to refuse to supp- ort the fund for refurbishing the That is the date the province divorce the public from the has said it will no longer grant provincial governments plann- subsidies to the 10 councils as it moves suddenly to create. five "planning regions" for Ontario, The councils are made up of appointed municipal officials and, in some cases, represent- ing programs, Mr, Curtin told the conferen- ce that the folk "movement" ofthe development councils hadn't worked out as expected, He said in the 18 years since the economic regions were atives of business and industry, ,created, only one ,council had Although the councils are aut- onomous corporations and there- fore the province cannot disband them, withdrawal of provincial subsidies will mean the local municipal and private sector support would end as well, thus causing the councils to fold, Mr. Fisher said, S. J. Clasky, director of the regional economics branch, said in an interview from Tor- onto, that details of the new area planning setup are still being worked out. He said in the place of the councils the province will invite local gov- ernment representation through the municipal liaison committ- ee of the municipal associat- ions. Another advisory board repres- enting business and universities will also be formed, he said. Mr. Clasky said the "cold, hard fact had to be faced that the economic councils had out- lived their usefulness, n He said some discussions are being held to see -if the local representative machinery of the councils could be used in conjunction with the province's ' industrial opportunities program directed by John White, min- ister of trade and development. Dr. E. G, Pleva, of the Univ- ersity of Western Ontario, said he was disappointed at the move, He has been associated with the Erie council as a research offic- er and he called It one of the' best in the province. Dr. Richard Thoman, former director of regional develop- ment for Ontario, said. "in my mind that's definitely a retro- grade step.11 He said the councils offered the province a cross-section opinion of Local communit- ies and he questioned whether in fact the new system wouldn't voluntarily produced a report that was of value, He said the remainder had had to be "nagge'd and cajoled" by provincial civil servants to do their job. Mr, Fisher said that late in June the province said it wouldn't be funding the coun- cils after the end of the year. He said there was some elab- oration at a June 27 meeting of the various councils in'l'or- onto, but other than that the councils have received no further information, Miilsuinmer VALUES =SHIRTS and SHORTS STANFI ELD' S UNDERWEAR for good fit and long wear and boys shorts, tops and T-shirts R.
