SUGGEST CHANGES FOR I VAUGHAN RELIEF ADMINISTRATION An inspector from the Ontario De- partment of Public Welfare visited; Vaughan Council Tuesday and sug- gested that it would be advisable for Vaughan to engage jointly with Markham Township, Mr. Orr as Rev lief Officer. It was pointed out that Mr. Orr was a well qualified and experienced man and that it would be possible for him to do the work in both townships. It was pointed out that there were many complaints re- garding relief matters in Vaughan. Complaints from ratepayers as to the continued high cost and complaints from recipients as to various matters. There is also outstanding the matter of clothing distributed last December. The township distributed about $1300. 00 worth of clothing and as yet has received no government subsidy be- cause no proper vouchers or receipts could be produced. In the ordinary course of events the township would have received two thirds of this amount as a refund but such refund has been withheld owing to the cir- cumstances surrounding the distriâ€" bution. The inspector also pointed out many weaknesses in the present system of administering- relief in. the township. The total relief account for the month would probably reach nearly $2000.00, one grocer alone having an account of $504.00 for relief supplies. The members of council were in- clined to agree with the inspector that there was room for improve- ment but no action was taken as Reeve Kellam was absent from the meeting owing to illness. It is understood the proposal had been made that Markham and Vau- ghan share equally in engaging Mr. Orr as relief officer who received for his services $125.00 per month and mileage.

ONTARIO THURSDAY, JUNE 6th,1935 Markham Township Council went on record on Tuesday as favoring the calling of a. meeting to consider the advisability of scrapping the North Yonge Radial and the substitution of a bus service. This action brings to a head a movement which has been carried on for some time with the View of getting rid of the car service on Yonge Street. Markham Township Council In Favor of Conference to Consider Scrapping Radials Those who favor the abandonment of lone radial service north from Steele’s corners suggest that With the impending widening of Yonge Street. by the provincial government the municipalities would have an excel- lent chance to unload the existing de- bentures, having them taken over by the province in return for the radial right of way which would be paved. To date the province has made no such proposition to the municipalities and to say that the department of highways would be willing to do so is just speculation, as far as The Liberal'can ascertain this morning. The proposal of th0se who would abandon the radial service is to sub- stitute a bus service from Richmond Hill td Steele’s corners, where the passengers would change to the North York Township car line, and change again at the city limits to the To- ronto cars. The conference of the municipal councillors of the municipalities con- cerned will likely be held in the very near future, but it is very unlikely that any action could be taken with- out consulting the ratepayers. The people of the defined Yonge Street area voted for the radial service and any deficits have been charged to that area and are not born by the township as a whole. None of the members of Markham Township Council who have taken the initial step to consider abandonment of the line live in the railway area. The whole matter has been brought to a head by the urgent need for the widening of Yonge Street from Steele’s corners to Richmond Hill. Those who would like to \see the radial service scrapped in favor of a bus service to Steele’s corners where it would act as a feeder for the North York Township car line argue that now is a good time to get out from under the load. Many citizens interviewed by The Liberal who are residents in the Yonge St. area stated that they would vigorous- ly oppose any move to discontinue the line and substitute a. bus service. “Why people outside the area are kicking, I can’t understand,” said one ratepayer. “Those of us in Yonge Street district pay the debentures and any small deficit which may come along and we think it’s well worth it.” This we believe is the attitude of the majority of citizens of the dish trict. The line has been operated during a period of the worst economic depression in history and its operat- ing losses have been very small and amount to practically nothing on the tax bill. Reeve J. A. Greene of Richmond Hill is a firm supporter of the radial line and he will vigorously oppose any move to abandon thre‘line without consulting the people. Deputy-Reeve Robert W. Scott of Vaughan Town- ship who lives in the radial anea is a supporter of radial transportation on Yonge Street. “I believe the abandonment of the line would mean a great loss in property values and would be a serious blow to the North Yonge Street district,” he stated to- The Liberal. While citizens interviewed opposed to the limit any proposal to abandon the radial they all agree the widen- ing of Yonge Street is very neces- sary. However,'this is entirely a pro- vincial matter and when done will be paid for entirely by the province. The Yonge Highway Improvement Association has gone on record as favoring a widening plan similar to the improvement done in North York Township with a. pavement on either side of the radial line. It is under- stood a meeting of this association will be called at an early date to dis- cuss the whole matter and make rep- resentations to the department. v....~..-r ..---- .. r“.-__.~_-- _._ __.W‘_ ide of the radial line.

Mr. Mulock briefly reviewed activities at OttaiWa and took the Bennett govern»- ment sternly to task for its failure to deal with the many urgent prob- lems of the day. Hon. Ian McKenzie, one of the out-i standing members of the Liberal; party and a former cabinet minister, paid tribute to the work being done at Ottawa by North York's member. “Mr. Mulock has already made his mark at Ottawa and he has been made chairman of the Liberal committee on \veterans pensions.” In regard Mr. lMcKenzie said 001 Mulock was ren- dering very valuable service to the veterans of Canada and to the citi- zens of the country who wanted to see those men get a square deal.
