No decision was made as to the number of ofâ€" ficers to be hired at the commission meeting. 884-4165 Chief Crawford suggested to Judge Lyon the matter be discussed at a later meeting, preferably one attended by all members of the police board. This announcement, made at the last police commission meeting by Chairman Judge William Lyon, follows a previous decision to reduce the number of new officers hired from 18 to 13. The police budget now stands at $6,982,900 as of the regional budget debate May 29. Police Chief Bruce Crawford said he assumed that 13 officers had been approved for employment by October 27.

Said Mrs. Buck: “You did; you made the act.” The answer, she said, was worse than the problem. She said the committee often disagreed with professional opinions and was “just a jungle of red tape.” Planning boards Planning boards used to have authority in such matters, Mayor Buck said. “We’re looking to you," she said. “You appointed them," replied Mr. McKeough, referring to the land division committee. Buck critical Mrs. Buck said there was no coâ€"ordination at Queen's Park in such things as the land division committee, health and social services and family counsels. He was welcomed by Mayor Evelyn Buck of Aurora with the words: “It’s nice to have the father of the child (regional government) drop in."

If this increase had been limited to the average rate for local governments in the province, York ratepayers would have saved about $7 million, Nixon said. Mayor Gladys Rolling of East Gwillimbury, said such matters were the region‘s problems and not the provincial govern- ment’s. But she did wonder why the region could only charge $50 when it cost $100 to handle a dispute. He's flabbergasted When asked by Councillor Gordon Rowe And a Liberal government’would assist them in maintaining that com- munity role, he said. Nixon made his remarks to a nomination meeting at Aurora Com- munity Centre. Mayor ’ Margaret Britnell of King Township was ac- claimed as the candidate for York North. As Liberals, they were committed to strengthen local government, he‘said. “Clearly, the plan announced three years ago this month to regionalize the whole part of southern Ontario has only been delayed, not abandoned“, Nixon said. Liberal leader Nixon wants individual's role in society to be strengthened Provincial Liberal Leader Robert Nixon last week called for the role of the individual in society to be “preserved and strengthened. “We don’t believe bigger government is better government,” Nixon said. “We believe people â€" individuals â€"â€" have an important role in our community life.” “We’ll stop the (Premier William) Davis plan to arbitrarily impose regional governments from Windsor through Ottawa,” Nixon said. Costly government Regionalization “inflicted big- government and high cost government on local ratepayers”, he said. Govern- ments that rejected regional plans were penalized with lower grants from the province. “Wherever centralized regions have been imposed in Ontario, local governments have jumped dramatically. Here in York, municipal spending increased by 51 percent in the first year of regionalization,” he said.

Families and com- muters were the ones who would be hit the hardest; with the refunds for commercial use, the “paper war is mind Students of Grade 6 gave Mrs. Marcotte gifts â€" a vase and sleepers and toys for the baby. a farewell party in the classroom for Mrs. Peacock and gave her a beautiful Blue Mountain pottery bird. Tuesday afternoon they also held a graduation party at which the grade 5 students were guests. "' ‘He said‘Ontario had a deficit of $1.7 billion, even though it was considered a rich province. Premier Davis hadn’t Every province, in fact, had an energy resource, but because of ex- ternal crises, Canada was “divided into individual sheikdoms". Rather than “pitting province against province, let us have an agreement to share for the good of all," he said. People should be able to go into housing divisions in some areas without full services, he said. Share the wealth Nixon also called for the sharing of natural resources by Canadians. Ontario, for example, had uranium and the technology to turn it into energy. Look it over Nixon said a Liberal government would not only review the whole system of regional governments, but would insist, where regions were already established, the chairmen be elected locally, rather than be appointed by the provincial government. The Liberal leader also attacked the present education system in the province. He said he felt 50 to 60 percent of school time should be spent in uniform studies. At present, there were no standards and nobody failed. That didn’t mean, however, that good students still couldn’t excel, he said. J He also wondered about teachers, who, he said, were moving into an area “where they are becoming just another union". If they were going to form a union, it should be certified, he said, as the government would “like to take some initiative to move the teachers into professionalism". Nixon said he would like to abolish the Ontario Housing Program. The government should have started ser- vicing land, not banking it. system of local government becomes remote, impersonal â€" regional instead of local".
