The legislation was passed in June and since that time only 46 municipalities had passed bylaws putting into effect the province's tax re- lief plan. The Townships of Markham and Vaughan and the Town of Richmond Hill are among that number. \ll three municipalities report few applications re- ceiied as yet. although it is expected that before the final instalment of 1967 taxes is due lOctober for the townships and Novem- ber for the lowiit more el- derly people will file apâ€" plications. Richmond Hill and Markham Township haxe each received a half dozen applications. and both have received several more inquiries. Vaughan Township has about a dozen applications on tile.

Mr. Ferens, who lives within scent of the South Thackeray Site north of Steeles Avenue vas first roused to action a couple of months ago by the ‘teneh from the sewage sludge being dumped on the property by Metro Works Department.

SEPTEMBER 7, 196’ No Great Demand For Exemption about 200 Metro area home- owners ha\e applied for this relief from municipal taxes. Municipal officials feel that many eligible persons are still unaware that the relief is available. Eligible persons still have until Dc- cember 31 to make applica- tion to receive relief on this year‘s taxation. The controversial Bill 105 states that the provincial government will make an interest-free loan of up to $150 to homeowners over 65 to help th in pay their realty taxes. .To qualify the homeowners must occupy the premises and apply for the dei‘crine ' There is no means test. ‘he participatv ing municipality will then he reimburst by the provâ€" ince in the amount of deferâ€" ment.

Also of .concern. says Mr. Ferens, are ‘tlie rats which he insists the ‘dump will generate, no matter how well run it is. He points out that just two years ago a 'baby in a carriage was bitten by rats near the Marie Curtis Park, at that‘ime a dump. "i am opposed to this for humanitarian reasons."

Some 150 dozen ears of corn were cooked up for the occasion in company with 85 dozen frank~ i‘urters for an expected 1.000 eaters but it didn‘t work out that way. Only about 300 persons \eiiâ€" iured into the rain to listen to but mostly chat in neighborly fashion with the pretenders to the Diel‘enlmker throne currentâ€" ly being decided at the Royal York Hotel in Toronto. Among these were liotdog- munching Donald Fleming and hotdog-disdainer Senator Wal-' with her his regrets. Hoping to be there but unable to make it were Manitoba Premier Duff Roblin and Alvin Hamilton along with John McLean. All was sweet corn and light as none of the candidates acted as if the well known moment of truth was fastopproacliing. .\lr. Fleming dispensed with his liotdog long enough to leac the evening off with a "Let‘s keep the Conservative banner flying before supporters by more personal grassroots COI'l-‘ tact. "This leadership convention. this kind of communication. We? must keep these lines open for benefit of unity of the party.” Mr. McCutciieon. candidate for York Simcoe. was also full of sweetness and light. He commented that persons who thought the leadership scramble of candidates was div- iding the party were all wrong. “They think we're committing suicide. But let me tell you there are nine respectable and high calibre persons competing for the leadership." The rest of the evening was the corn bowls. The corn was boiled in five large pots over a wood fire in the rain but was quickly hustled indoors. Gordon Read, president of the YNPC’s, expressed disappoint- ment at the smallerâ€"than-expectâ€" ed turnout but blamed the in- clement weather. On l)eing questioned as to wind would happen to the left- over corn and hotdogs he an- swered: "The corn and dogs will be distributed to the Maple Boy Scout and Brownie organiza- tions."
