His appointment emphasizes the importance with which this administration regards the needs of the agricultural areas, and the economic requirements of the province as a whole, as they relate to the operations of the department of highways of which he will now be the min- ister in charge." Rapid advancement The appointment, just four years after he won his seal' in the legislature, indicates the Huron. member's rapid. rise to a major post in the government,. He succeeded the late Thom- as Pryde as PC member for Huron in the by-election of 1958 and was re-elected in the gene- ral election of 1959. Mr, MacNaughton was ap- pointed to the Ontario Water Resources Commission in Jan- uary, 1960 and on November 8, 1961, was sworn in as minister without portfolio, Although his new post will re- quire much more of his time and will necessitate a consid- erable amount of travelling throughout the province, the Huron IMPP indicated his rid- ing's interest will remain fore- most among his duties. "I don't intend 'to lose sight of 'the fact that it all starts and ends right here in Huron," he stated. In the official list of the On- tario cabinet, whose order is established by seniority, Mr, Dismiss appeal Ontario dep't of ,education has dismissed an appeal from. Usborne township requesting transfer of parts ..of union sections at Kirkton and Wood- ham to the .trshorne school. area. In the letter advising of the dismissal, the deputy minister of the department indicated that the disagreement should be settled by local effic.ials. since it was a local matter, 'Osborne council liar not yet discussed any further action in regard to the matter. It will probably be on the agenda of the regular, meeting next week. Blanshard township refused to break up .the union sections because, according to its re- solution, no move was being made by Usborne to construct a central school, since the ratepayers turned down the proposal in a referendum last year. Blanshard indicated it would reconsider if 'Osborne. planned to proceed with the Provision of central facilities. The conflict arises from a meeting earlier this year among Biddulph, Blanshard. and Osborne officials at which plans were made to redistri- bute school boundaries accord- ing to municipal boundaries, Ths affected the union schools in Whalen, Woodham and Kirk- ton. The bylaw splitting up the Whalen section, which involved all. three townships, has been passed and approved by the three councils, 'Osborne passed the bylaw to bring the 'Osborne sections of Kirkton and Woodham under its township school area juris- diction but Blanshard has re- fused to accede, Of the Kirkton section, the Usborne portion amounts to about 39% of the assessment. It is a two-room school, In the Woodham section, Us- borne assessment amounts to 46%. It is a one-room opera- tion, The changing of boundaries has been precipitated by the proposal to build a central school in Biddulph, MacNaughton now stands 17th in the 21-member body. A former desk-mate of Mr. MacNaughton, William 0, Da- vis, of 'Brampton, who was elected to the legislature about the same time, was named min- ister of education in Thurs- day's announcement.
