It was expected that there would be a contest for the reeveship but Mr. Greene withdrew from the race on Tuesday. IntervieWed by the Liberal, Mr. Greene stated that in as much as there was not a contest for the council or for the school board he did not wish to put the municipality to the trouble and expense of an election. Four were nominated for the‘three seats on the Richmond Hill Board of Education, Garnet H. Duncan, Frank Atkinson, Harry Endean and Wesley Palmer. Mr. Palmer did‘not qualify as he stated to The Liberal that he did not feel like causing an election and the three former members were elect- ed by acclamatibn,” ' The nomination Was graced with on- 1y a fair attendance of ratepayers and it was notably quiet. harmonious and devoid of anything in the nature of fireworks. Only one lady was pres- ent which was regretable but may have been accounted for by the fact that many homes were celebrating Christmas on Monday. Mr. A.J.

Greene criticized the council for constructing drains in early De- cember when the ground was frozen and the cost much above what it would have been if the work had been done under normal conditions. He charged the council with a lack of foresight in this matter. He thought it was poor business for the council to purchase pipe to the extent of $1100 for the ex- tensions to the waterworks when they were not going to be used until next year. Why lay out the taxpayers money like this when it has to be bor- rowed at six Der cent he asked. He asked why an effort had not been made to dispose of certain equipment which was scrapped when the new electric light system was installed. The Liberal Office or Phone 30-W.

In answer to this question, Reeve Lunau said that Mr. Greene had tried to sell it when he was in council and was unable to do so. The council were willing to sell it but could not do so until they got a buyer. Mr. Greene contended that the Reeve Vshould be able to tell what the road would cost if a proper contract had been made with the Warren Pav- ing Company. He reviewed his eff- orts on behalf of lower fares on the radials. in having a survey made for industrial plants.
