PAGE THURSDAY THE SECOND DAY OF OCTOBER NINETEEN HUNDRED AND FIFTYEIGHT LETS HAVE NO MORE DEALS was an enlightening experience attending the arena commission meeting last week If we had been told that a group of adults could not make a simple decision in three and a halfhours we would not have believed the conveyor of the information But we sat and listened and it was true As for the personal grievances between individuals on the hockey executive and arena commission we be lieve they have no place in a meeting of a public com mission The press has not attended commission meet ings regularly There are many boards and commis sions in Newmarket now and it would require a percent increase in the papers staff to cover them all If last weeks arena commission meeting is a typical example its meetings would be the last our list a large percentage of what was said Thursday is not fit to print Weeding through the side issues which have no bearing on the public welfare we arrived at one opinion The arena commission being a public body should not be speculating on future gate receipts The commission or the arena manager should know what it costs to operate the arena Its duty is not to make money According to the policy set by the town council the commission must to make the arena pay its own way nothing else In the past the commission speculated on a senior hockey team and lost With the junior C team it won In our opinion the commission should determine its costs and make all financial arrangements accordingly so that the arena pays its way Doing this in a businesslike manner perhaps the commission could have all its prices fixed and end the bickering over deals SPENDING HOLDS THE KEY What sort of recovery there will be this fall de pends a lot on what the consumer decides to spend says Robertson in The Financial Post It was retail buying last winter which went a long way toward soft ening the effect of the recession on the whole economy Spotlight is oil the new cars now rolling into showrooms across the country Retailers arc watching consumer reaction to see what frame of mind buyers are in when it comes to the bigtag items Right now its up to the retailer to shake the con sumer out of his cautious mood Canadian consumers overall have enough money for a spurt of spending Labor income is running close to three percent above levels despite higher Unemployment And these wages and salaries are allimportant in sustaining VANDALISM Is there anything the community can do for par ents whose children commit acts of vandalism By this we mean that the problem of weakness of mind is on the parents part We know of specific cases where police and other community citizens in positions of res ponsibility have talked to parents of children involved in minor offenses Some parents are more inclined to defend their children than to discipline them Perhaps there are cases where the children discipline their par ents if they do not conform to their little wishes Reports this week indicate that vandalism is in creasing in Newmarket Public as well as private pro perty is being damaged by young people who apparently have little sense of value When public property is damaged everybody pays The problem for the parks board is becoming serious and it is discouraging for recreation officials to know that ball park damage has been done by youngsters who play on teams sponsored by the recreation commission The law does not permit the prpsecution of parents whose children commit acts of vandalism The courts refrain from being harsh on juveniles and they are right But the efforts of law enforcement officers the courts and probation officers are not effective without the cooperation of parents If the parents do not cooper ate what are the authorities to do Theres the prob lem We arc not sure of the answer yet THE BIG STICK- The fallowing editorial appeared in the St Catharines Standard during the summer Newmarket town council deserves a pat on the hack if it sticks to its guns in its current squabble with a local land developer The developer has threatened council with the toss of a major industrial prospect unless the town approves a special building project which contra venes the towns subdivision bylaw The Newmarket incident is by no means unique incidents of a similar nature though perhaps not of magnitude occur quite frequently in most Particularly in the field of land development there ate always some people who use the big stickwielding method in trying to get special privileges which are not available in the ordinary course of events There are the people who accompany justifiable requests for con sideration by veiled and sometimes not so veiled threats Their usual routine goes something like this If you dont let me do this then will do that and that will be a lot worse than my plan What most of these big seem to forget is that their methods only tend to get peoples backs up Municipal councils are much more inclined to listen to reason than to listen to threats OUR SIDE OF THE STORY by WBHARVEY TAKE THE DUMPING LAW TO COURT win the support Rule of Law Into by the Canadian Weekly public at large
