Deserves Higher Grants For Education The wing problem at Ontario mun repent In re ation to education costs was again emphasized this week by the barrio City Council Ooan resolution requestin the tion of Ontario Mayors an Reeves to sup rt the motion which requested the re lies to bear 80 per cent of the tota cost oi elementary and secondary school educa tion In Barrie 43 cents oi every tax dol lar raised by round goes towards edu cation In number oi other Ontario municipalities the percentage is much higher The cost oi education is not the issue in the resolution Council recognizes the vital need oi providing the best pos sible educational facilities and oi keep ing students in school as long as pos sible Young people with wellround ed education especially those who take degrees in universities iace bright iuture in Canada But this emphasis on learning serves to underline municipal financial problems Barrie in common with most municipal lties has only one major tax base realty assessment liiosi oi the revenue received by council comes from taxes imposed on property And because oi the pressure exerted to increase ser vices especially education taxes on In dustriai plants commercial enterprises and residence are going up so much in fact that may people are beginnin to wonder it it economically soun to own homes instead oi renting them The question oi rising costs oi educa tion has faced council ior many years Tnie the Ontario overnment rovidce grants which tall short the 00 or cont target suggested by Barrie Vlthout more generous aid the city iaces the alternative oi curbing other services or raising taxes Taxes can only so high and then commun laces more and more tax delinquencies and eventual loss oi some properties to the city through such isilures The city has no new sources at rev enue It must continue to assess real pro rty and at the same time abide with6 the dictates oi overnmoni in rela tion to education Ontario govern ment calls the tune on education It sets the standards and in large mean ure the meta too This then imposes responsibility on the government to provide revenue tor the city Ii taxes on real pro crty are as high or higher than they ould be then the government should lve the city other means oi taxation or ncrcasc provincial grants It would appear that the grant tom should be overhauled drastically ghty or cent ts high but certainly not too iilgh in relation to the citys financial position With more grants the city could take look at other municipal services and best oi all keep curb him hldhli cry wa
