The act says that where a ma- jority of voters of, two or more school sections decide to form a union, they must be represented each year by three trustees. The recent amendment says that at the first meeting following such a un- ion, the ratepayers shall elect five trustees. For years, however, the board of trustees in the . Dubin area has been controlling a Separate School Union for Sections 2, 3 and 4 in Hibbert Township and No. 1 in McKillop Township. Since the union has existed for several years there were many ratepayers who felt the amend- ment did not apply. If it did ap- ply, the question then -arose whe- ther an entirely new slate of elec- tors should be elected or if those trustees with unexpired terms should be allowed to complete them. Mr. Justice Moorhouse field that the intention of the amendment was to increase the number of trustees for union sections from three to five. The section (of the act) as it now appears, he added, deals with the election of the first group of five trustees. The wording of the amendment, he said, would seem to refer only to the first election following the formation of a union, but, "this would fail to give effect to the intendment of the legislation." On the question of whether trus- tees with' unexpired terms should be allowed to serve them out, Mr, Justice Moorhouse said he believ- ed they should necessarily be di- vested of their office by the in- tent of the legislation. London lawyer Frank Carter, who represented the school board, had` argued that. trustees with un- expired terms should not be forced to retire because they had a pre- existing right. The application for a judicial terpretation of the amendment was brought last Friday in weekly court. Trustees Joseph Shea, with years remaining in his term office, and George Ducharme, one year to go, are affected the decision. Elmer Bell, QC, of Exeter, ed for retiring trustee, Zech R and ratepayers Stephen Mu and Wilfred O'Rourke, who tended that an entirelnew s of trustees should be chosen. Reasons For Judgment The reasons for the judgment Mr. Justice Moorhouse follow: "The facts of this matter are in dispute and are relatively s ple. The Notice of Motion served by publication pursuan the Order of His Honour Ju McCallum, dated 4th of Janu 1961. I do order that all inter are represented by Counsel peering before me. By Section 33 of the Separ Schools Act, R.S.O., 1950, Chap 356, provision was made for ion Schools in rural areas to be presented by three trustees elec as therein provided. Provision Made for retirement by rotation the case of rural trustees. Sec 23, Subsection 33 specifically p vided that Union Board Trust should be elected as. provided Section 26. Subsection 3 (d) of S tion 26 provided for "electing trustee or trustees to fill any v ancy or vacancies". I am of opinion the necessary inferen from this is that the trustees Union Separate School Boards tired by rotation. In 1960 it was intended to crease the number of trustees five and certain amendments we made which now appear in Cha ter 368 of the R.S.O. 1960, Secti 32. The matter now concerns t interpretation of this amendme Of the many fine characteristi of the national background of t ratepayers in this area,'ff lane m correctly assume that from surnames of the people, one h been aptly described by Sir Jo Davis, when he said many yea ago: "There is no nation and the sun that does love equal a indifferent justice better than t Irish, or will rest more satisfi with its decisions, although again themselves, provided they ha the protection of the laws whe they so deserve it." This chara teristic too has the effect bringing home most pointedly the draughtsmen of our legislatio the constant necessity for caref thought and diligent consideratio which is, I regret to say, not man fest in the amendment. Mr. Bell argues that Unio School Boards under the 1950 Ac were elected for one year only. cannot give effect to that submi sion, Mr. Caeter submits that the elec tion for the 1961 board should b for three men only. That is fo the increase of two and to replan the one whose term would ordin arily expire at the end of 1960 0 the rotation principle. There f great force to this argument, as i is a cardinal principal of law tha vested rights are not divested ex cept by clear and explicit languag or by necessary intendment. Ther seems to be no express languag divesting those members of th Board whose terms have not ye expired, of their office. There is a further question which arises and that is on a true con- struction of the amendment does it not refer ably to Union Separ- ate School Boards thereafter to be formed? The amendment, now Sec- tion 32 (1) reads as follows: "The majority of the supporters of the Separate Schools under the jurisdiction of each of two or more Separate School Boards at public meetings duly called by each Sep- arate School Board MAY FORM a union separate school of which un- ion the trustees shall give notice within 15 days to the minister and where the schools are located in one or more municipalities, to the two of with by act- yan, rray con - late by not im- was t to dge ary, ests ap- ate ter Un- re - ted was in tion ro- ees by ec- a ac- the c - the ce of re- in - to re p - On he nt. es tie ay the as hn rs er nd he ed st ve n c - of to n ul n t• I s- e r e n s e e e e Church Members atWoItor HearR�vjewofyea r'sWork Encouraging reports were pre- sented from every department of the church, when members of Duff's United Church, Walton, net for their annual Meeting in the church basement on Thursday ev- ening.

The capitals are mine. This con- struction, location as it may seem from reading the section, fails to give effect to the intendment of the legislation and may perhaps cre- ate a hiatus. Section 32, subsection 3, as it now appears R.S.O. 1960, Chapter 368, deals with the term of office of the five trustees first elected. in my opinion, effect can only be given to this section by holding that the office of the previous trus- tees became divested by necessary intendment. This I must say is a most unsatisfactory way of arriv- ing at a conclusion, and I must say in fairness to the trustees and ratepayers that I do so with some doubt. The question is therefore answer- ed that the present election should be for five trustees. Counsel have asked me to fix the costs and have agreed that in fairness ,to all they should be paid from thfunds of the Board of the Union Separate School. With that submission 1 agree, The costs of the applicant I fix at $175, to which may be added all proper disbursements and those of Mr. Bell I fix at $150, plus all pro- per disbursements."
