The duties of this committee will be to confer with the Provincial government on proposed legislation afâ€" fecting municipalities. A very interestâ€" ing and instructive discussion took place on Town Planning. At the Anâ€" nual election of Officers Mayor Case of Owen Sound was reâ€"elected as Presiâ€" dent and your representative was again named to the executive. "At the business sessions on the sec. ond day of the convention the report of the Resolutions Committee was conâ€" sidered.

"The Convention was attended by Mayors and Reeves from about 40 Ontâ€" ario Towns and Cities and all the delâ€" egates felt that the meeting was a most successful one and that the matters to be presented to Provincial and Dominâ€" ion government authorities will receive the same careful consideration that the. previous recommendations of this association have received."

This session was also adâ€" dresesd by Geo. T. Peppal, Ontario Reâ€" gional Fuel Controller. Mr. Peppal deâ€" clardd that the steps taken by the Ad~ ministration Fuel Dealers and the Municipalities had averted the posâ€" sibilty of a fuel shortage in Ontaria this season, provided that no unforseen eircumstances arises suuch as any furâ€" ther strikes in the Coal Mines. “Several instructive addresses were given at the second session each of which was followed by a general disâ€" cussion by the delegates. The topics included postâ€"war reconstruction by controller Nora . Henderson of Hamilâ€" There will also be more or less inâ€" terest in the suggestion made by the Ontario Regional Fuel Controller to the effect that the possibility of a fuel shortage this coming winter had been averted. All will hope that this is the fact. ‘"The Ontario Mayors‘ Association met at Toronto on October 20th with Mayor Case of Owen Sound in the chair. The delegates were welcomed by Mayor ‘Conboy of Toronto.

Your representative was appointed chairman of this committee. "HMon. G. H. Dunbar, Minister of the Municipal Affairs in the Ontario Govâ€" ernment addressed the convention. He emphasized the fact that the responsâ€" ‘lbility for postâ€"war planning did not rest with the municipalities but with the Dominion Government and warned the municipalities against over spending in the postâ€"war period. He stated that the policy of the Department of Munâ€" icpial Affairs was to assist the municiâ€" galities in every possble way but to exâ€" »reise as little direct control as possible The report of the convention as read to council was as follows:â€"â€" mayor ‘of Timmins, at the regular meeting of the town council on Monâ€" gday of this week. The report holds many special points of interest. One of these is the new attitude of the Ontâ€" ario Dept.â€"of Municipal Affairs, as exâ€" pressed by Hon. Ggo. H. Dunbar, the Minister, who stated that the policy of his department was to assist the munâ€" icipalities in every possible way, but to exercise as little direct control as posâ€" sible. It would not be very unfair:to say that this attitude is about the diâ€" rect opposite of what appears to have ubtained in recent years, when it did seem that the idea was to exertise as much direct control as possible and to assist the municipalities as little as might be. ; Held at Toronto on _ October 21st to 23rd.
