(n-lo-w-c A second nev‘vconier, Milt S‘a- vage, stated he could provide representation on council that Mr. Neufeld called for coun- cil to provide more leadership for the municipality. As chairman of the waier~ works committee, Mrs. McCon- key took credit for obtaining faster service for water users by installing two-way radios in waterworks truck-s. Completion of the township's first road-needs study during the last two years will lead to more orderly and cheaper pro- gram for township roads, he said. Mr. Kefier promised the same thing as he promised in 1960, “hhe best I've got.” Maple housewife Councillor Mrs. Ruth McConkey thanked r-atepayens for helping make her the first woman to sit on council. She had tried to show her gratitude by working hard, and attending more council and committee meetings than any other member of council. Councillor Wilfred Kef’fer, a retired resident of Maple, re- called hls work as chairman of the roads committee of council since his election in 1960. He estimated Vaughan‘s annual roads budget at about $350,000 including grants. Maintenance alone costs the township about $150,000, he said. \ Deputy-reeve Jesse Bryson, ‘who was returned to his post ’by acclamation, opened the meeting with only eight rate- payers in the audience. He call- ed Vaughan “one of the most interesting townships in south- ern Ontario". Residents and the municipality must look to the day when the area will expand greatly, he warned. Mr. Kaiser called Mr. Good- win‘s estimate of a five mill in- crease exaggerated. He estimat- ed the revenue produced by five mills at over $120,000 and pre- dicted a surplus of $30,000 on 1962 operations after repay- ment of the $27,000. “You had four months to find' out about the mistake in the grant." replied Bert Stevenson of Maple, another new candi- date. | “You don't ask the depart- ment where grants come from," replied Chairman Sam Kaiser. “The department doesn't make mistakes." khow where it came from? mainder in 1963.

Reeve Albert Rutherford, al- so returned by acclamation for a second term, spoke only briefly. He promised to contin- ue his campaign to have school trustees paid more than $60 a year, at the next conference of the Canadian Federation of Mayors and Reeves. Trustee Terry Goodwin at- tacked a report in “The Liber- al" on his speech during last Monday night's nomination meeting. He charged the story was taken out of context and that it conveyed the inaccurate impressiomthat he opposed oral French. She called for the board to adopt an acceleration program, physical education and kinder- gartens as soon as possible. Mrs. Edmanson warned that every effort must be made to hold down the tax rate.

Mr. Goodwin stressed the im- portance of raising the quality of elementary school education. especially in Grades 7 and 8 in an effort to narrow the gap between public and high school. He suggested establishment of senior public schools. ‘ He explained that he had op- posed submission of the ques- tion of oral French to the vot- ers, but was strongly in fever of oral French. He charged that the three ELECT interest in schools and in muni- cipal affairs as evidenced by the slim turnout at the meeting. One of the two board mem- bers who opposed placing oral French on a plebiscite, Mr. ‘Kaiser expressed concern that the problem would become a political football. Trustee Mrs. Dorothy Robert- son of Pine Grove, made “no apologies for secondi-ng the mo- tion which put oral French on the plebiscite." She expressed concern over whether or not re- quests for teaching of oral French represented the majority of the people. A plebiscite would have given the board a chance to find out the people’s real opin- ion, she said.
