Seems To Favor Addition To Police Department By FRED SIMPSON :hm ! 0 Planning: Regional and lo- cal planning similar to Metro plaguing. Local for distribution and ad- ministration. . Public health: Regional. Commissioner Garnet Wil- liams agreed there were differ- ences of opinion but said that “These areas 0f dissent can be solved. We’ve come a long way since our first meeting." It was decided to allow the committee to launch the econ- omic study and report back its findings at the next session of county council. Committee representa- tives are: Chairman Garnet Williams, reeve of Vaughan Township: John McLean. reeve of" Woodbridge; Torn Broad- hurst. mayor of Richmond Hill; Donald Plaxton, réeve of Rich- mond Hill; Mrs. Alma Walker, mayor of the Town of Mark- lam. Archie Laidlaw, reeve of the Town of Markham: Ken Laushway, reeve of Stouffville; and Anthony Roman. deputy- reeve of Markham Township. Richmond Hill Reeve Donald Plaxton said it was still a mat- ter of debate as to how the fin- al boundary lines are drawn “but there is no doubt some changes are necessary. The lines as they stand now are obsolete. they've been in ex- istence for 100 years. Rich- mond Hill has had about three annexations in the past 100 years." Mr. Plaxton noted his coun- cillors favored the three muni- cipafity concepts of regional government to handle local matters with an overall govern- ing body. One of the committee repre- sentatives. Reeve John McLean of Woodbridge favored having welfare kept at the local muni- cipality level because “you have to know the town and what the needs are. Besides you will be more familiar with the needs locally than on a regional basis.” 0 Sanitary and storm sewers: trunk system and disposal.

At the present time there Is no road in Guyana which crosses the country from border to border and there is much interest in a pos- sible link with Brazil since it could lead to a connection with the Pan American Highway. For Bargains & Service Galore (Continued from Page 1) The remaining 15 per cent of the population is comprised of Chinese. Amer-Indians (the orig- inal natives) Europeans and North Americans. Guyana is the only English- speaking country in South Amer- ica and is more closely identified with Caribbean Islands remaining under British protecton than with its neighboring Latin states. However. Guyana has a close alliance with Brazil. its gigantic neighbor. and negotiations are now taking place which could see construction of an international road link between the two nations.
