Sanw claffcation It now seems to have been clarified that Milton Police office will continue to hie located in the town. hall, if recommandations from the varions committees studying plans are accepted by the yet-to-be-named police commission. The Planning Committee, a wing of the Haltori Regional Police Steering committee bas sought ta allay local fears that Millon was not to have a police office. Source of the concern was s press rel1ase October 3, ovar the namne oeif Judge William K. Warrender, chairman of the Halton Regional Police Steerlng Committee. The release clearly made ns reference to any continuing operation of a Milton police office but specifically noted headquarters was planned for Oskville with district offices at Burlington, Georgetown and Oakville. A subsaquent amendment to the release, following our inquiries, indicated a staff office would bie located in Milton. Jndge Warrender bast week advised us of plans in the communications system which would allay our concernas about confusion on handling telephone reports. To avoid confusion on incoming calîs when a street name lis mentioned, the area of thea caUs origin wilil be oîgnalled hy a colored light so tIsat the many Main Streeta, for instance, wonld bie sorted ont for prompt police attention at the Oakville police headqnarters. The two points, major items in aur earlier editorial comment, seemn toi have been clarified and we wonld hope tbat wiile con look forward f0 efficient policing within the total region as well sin Milton specificslly. We are still not entirely clear on the role of the local office when the esrlier press reles details three specific districts. District 1 was ail of the region north of Derry Rosd and tIse headqusrters lis in Georgetown. District 2 is the region eIl of Burlosk Drive and Tremaine Road and sontb of Derry Rd with district headcluarters in Dakville. District 3 will bie the region west of Bnrloak Drive and Tfremaine Road and sauth of Derry Rd. with district headqnarters in Burlington. Presnmsbly tbat beaves Milton office in the Georgetown district. Perbapa completa clarification and understanding wifl develop when the final recommandations are draftad for snbmission ta the soon-to-be-nsmed police commission. Six, flot seven It vills enconraging tai learn bost week thot tha number of represantativas f rom the connty, attanding the national roads convention in Halifax, was lower thon we hsd reportad and also that tha axpansa to the couny wss heing reducad. Burlington Reeve Las Praston ays hae did not attend the conven- tion, as we bad reported, and hae soya hae neyer intended ta go once hae vilas dafeated in the Oct. t alec- tion. His namte, howavar, wssn't ramoved from the liat until tIse bat minuta and bacausa 0f this hae was inadvartantly raportad as attend. ing. We cartainly ragret that we incorrectly raportadl bis attandanca and apologiza. The source osf our information, we bad faIt, was comn- pletaly raliable. We do comnsend Mr. Preston howavar, for bis good judgment in daciding not ta attend the Halifax lavant, whan hae would sotl be returning to council deliber- ations after Jas. t. We are sîso, 00W advisad that Depnty Raava Len Coxa poid bis own axpansas in sttending tha avant. Frankly wa had sot pre- viously Iseard osf this avar having bappanad in tIsa pat but we apolo- giza for bsving suggastad hae at- tendad at county axpansa which tiile now lears was sot tIsa casa. It 110w appears. from tIsa hast information availabla to us, thot Uha county was raprasentad by f iva dalegatas attending at tIsa connty axpensa and oneasttanding at bis own axpensa. Wa appracista that mambers of connty counicil draw tha inaccur- scies ta our attantion 50 promptly. We are plessed to correct tha two points to aur readers cnncerning Use basis on which the six-member delegation attendad the Halifax meeting. A vaiid concern The concars heing regislerad hy residanla, about plans for an open concept school in Dorset Park, warrant study hy tha Halton Board of Education. It seama entiraly reasonabla fo for Board officiais fa caîl a public meeting witb rasidents of the ara fai discusa the open concept and cbarify pointe of As in any concept, thara ara divergent points of view on the succeas or foibura of the metbod. Open concept achools bave boas operating in Hsbton in othar municipobitias and vie tbougbt it was openby usderstood that soma chibdren do webb in the systam wbile othars find if difficult and distracting. It is trua, as Board officiais tobd local trustea Ivan Armstrong, that tecbaicbby o studant csn attend ony of Usa town scbooba undar the Board's pobicies, but practicably it may ha virl difficult for a young stodant to raacb a more distant school witbout transportation.

If w05 no douht tIsa concers f bey mat in campoignisg wban citizans' concerna ara most readiby registerad witb rapresantativas. The vabidity 0f the concars and its axtant are vary real.

It doas sot praclude the subsaquent insfollation of partitions if the decision is made foialstar the concept.
