Number four, our bureaucratic system has let the big businesses who handle the commodities essential to all rich or poor, increase their products about three times a year. Yet they expect the poor and low income to live a happy and normal life and pay for these things at about five percent of their high wages.

(continued from page 3) Councillor Frank Falconer said, "I don't like to see our ratepayers charged at the door.'.' Mrs. Cardn, said the Tuckersmith children in- volved were mainly from Harpurhey and Egmondville, both hamlets adjoining the town. Reeve of Seaforth, John Flannery, was the spokesman on the chaxge of $1,400 asked by the town from the town- ship for use of the dump.

Mrs. Flannery said the operating cost of the dump last year was $4,667.35. Mrs. Cardno asked the township council to consider sharing the cost of a building inspector with the town.
