mcpherson had her innings on monday night in a verbal defence of inferred charges levelled by ward three councillor harry ashton last week dep reeve mcpherson denied that personalities ever had or would prejudice her decisions when dealing with municipal business she defended her stand at a special meeting of pickering township council on monday evening im too big to make mud pies she stated i never have and never will permit personalities to sway my de cisions she said last week councillor ashton charged that two members of council were dealing in personalities he said that one and perhaps more names had been purposely omitted from the invitation list for the townships annual civic dinner he said that mr sid pugh an excouncillor and member of the civil defence committee had been singled out he declined to mention any names of specific members dep reeve mrs mcpherson and councillor miss violet swan contended that the remarks were directed at them certain persons are desirous of making newspaper head lines and would go to any limit to reach this end charged the dep reeve councillor ashton attempted to interrupt the deputy reeve but reeve scott thwarted any acrossthetable ex changes mrs mcpherson has the floor he said replying to inferred charges that personalities had entered into township business when dealing with at least three municipal employees dep reeve mcpherson flatly denied that she had been guilty of such an offense no individual names were mentioned replied reeve scott referring to the bylaw enforcement officer mr cane the dep reeve said that she had opposed his requested salary increase because he had not completed his probation ary period when he applied for the job he told us that wages were secondary in importance and he only wanted to prove he could do the job she said she noted that he had underbid other applicants for the position she said that a committee meeting was held at the reeves home and at brougham to set up the wage scale for employees he came to my home and i told him that a 5300 in crease was enough she said she noted that mr cane had asked for a s1300 increase i wouldnt uphold it and voted against it she said as far as personalities are concerned if it had been my own brother or husband i would have opposed the request she contended i didnt go behinclhis back to tell him she noted referring to the civic dinner at brougham on friday evening dep reeve mrs mcpherson said that she had not prepared the guest list she suggested however that she favoured the attendance of mp mike starr and mpp tommy thomas i only included these men because they are the sitting members she said this idea was strongly opposed by councillor ashton and reeve scott it wouldnt be right especially before an election said mr ashton we dont want party politics to enter into township affairs contended the reeve politics was involved in council affairs last year an swered the dep reeve i dont think it has this year this year and last year replied the reeve reeve scott said if members of parliament were invited then the reeves of pickering village ajax and the county warden would also have to be included councillor mrs violet swan said that she had also felt mr ashtons inference as much as dep reeve mrs mc pherson mr ashton didnt intend to attend the dinner anyway she said hes not the mighty defender of the underpriv ileged she contended councillor ashton charged that the exreeves were not to be invited and mr cane the welfare officer was also not being considered mr pughs name was deliberately omitted he charged councillor ross hawthorne suggested that council mem bers should endeavor to conduct township business in a har monious manner whether personalities have entered into council affairs is a mute point he said its all water under the bridge he concluded the taxpayers are the ones to be satisfied looked after and considered said councillor miss swan thats all im concerned about the dinner was a wonderful success
