The findings of that study were published in a 1959 report entitled “Ontario's Roads and Streets."

During the past two months Markham Township Council has received several requests from ratepayers to transfer their property from one school section or area to another so that their children might attend a school which was nearer their home. All requests were referred to the public school inspector. School Area Changes Granted Markham Township Residents Highways Minister Charles S.

Education costs were blamed for major increases in taxes in Markham Township, last week, when ratepayers from Button- ville and Arnleigh Heights sub- division went in a body to the council meeting to protest the sharp rise in their 1963 tax Ratepayers wanted to know‘ why taxes on property ranging in value from $14,500 to $20,- 000 were $80 to $100 higher than in 1962. They claim taxes in the township were higher than in Scarboro Township where sidewalks, sewers, water, garbage collection and other facilities are provided, facilities which are not available in the Buttonville area.

Ob- jectlng to this was Mr. Plaxton who felt the parliament would be “running a campaign with- in a campaign" if political candidates who might appear in a debate were forced to vote on any issues during an election.

At the outset of the session, Mr. Bell outlined the plans of the parliament. "It is important for the par- liament not only to be impartfl la] in its organization and ad- ministration but also to be seen to be impartial.
