CH 1â€"1911 Professional â€" Business Directory Secondly, after observing Mr. Scott in three previous campaigns, it seams that he has a habit of yelling "foul" far more frequently than his opponâ€" ents. Surely he is aware of what hapâ€" pened to the little shepherd boy who We specialize in all types of furniture upholstering First, let us suggest to Mr. Scott that if he and his helpers continue to imagine an evil motive behind every bush, they will dissipate so much of their energy chasing after goblins and naughty elves, that they won‘t have any strength left to present a positive and constructive platform. Alfred H. Herman B.A., Q.C., Barrister â€" Solicitor Notary Public Evenings by appointment 1938 Weston Rd. (at John St.) Since there was no diplomacy used in making this charge, there won‘t be any, used in answering it. Mr. Henderson complains that of all the newspapers, radio and televiâ€" sion outlets that covered Prime Minâ€" ister Trudeau‘s whirlwind visit to Crang Plaza, only the Globe and Mail and this newspaper gave the event "seriously biased and/or simply inâ€" competent‘" attention. In a letter to Weston Times general manager Jim Jordan, which is reproâ€" duced below, Val Scott‘s publicity chairman Bruce Henderson infers that since Mr. Jordan was an unsuccessful Lakeshore Liberal candidate, this newspaper has become a Liberal mouthpiece in the riding of York W est. The eight assistants are being hired to supplement the present staff which goes into schools to interview students with mental and emotional problems. ~ Hiring all this high priced talent to determine if students should be reâ€" ferred to local hospitals for psychâ€" iatric and psychological treatment seems to indicate that a good many youngsters in our community have very serious mental stresses that need to be reckoned with.

If winning friends and influencing people is what Mr. Scott is attempting to do, he is going about it the wrong way. Finally, we wish to inform Mr. Scott that our reporting will be as fair and as accurate in the future as we have tried to make it in the past. Fifth, many gentlemen in previous elections have given us a vote of thanks for fair and impartial reportâ€" ingâ€"win, lose or draw. To name a few: Fred Young, Donald MacDonâ€" ald, Ralph Cowan, Joe Gould, John Booth, Jack Mould, Elvio DelZotto, Wes Boddington, Jim Trimbee, Lindâ€" say Cott and Lloyd Sainsbury. Fourth, the "vote Scott sign comâ€" mittee" that welcomed Mr. Trudeau had been so overplayed in other meâ€" dia this newspaper did not want to bore our readers with more of the same stuff. Call this "incompetence" if you like, but we will not accept a bias label. Third, this newspaper has been called a lot of names by various peoâ€" ple, but never biased. Our editorial department is completely independent of influence from the publisher, genâ€" eral manager or anyone else. yelled "wolf" too many times. Such a study may find, that the North York education system, like many others in this province, is chiefâ€" ly responsible because it fails to resâ€" pond quickly to the changing needs of a modern generation. Who is responsible for the increasâ€" ing emotional stresses being faced by today‘s youngsters? Is it the school system, or, the teachers, or, the parâ€" ents? Before the board hires another battery of psychometricians, psychiaâ€" trists and others with fancy titles, it should first commission a study to find out why there are so many unâ€" stable and frustrated kids. As an ounce of prevention is worth more than a pound of cure, it is perâ€" haps time a serious enquiry be made into the reasons that a surprisingly large portion of North York students find the stresses and strains too great to be solved without competent help.

We are not in the habit of making official protests like this, being prepared to accept the varying perspectives of difâ€" ferent publications; however, in this case, with your coverâ€" age slanted in a direction folâ€" lowed by almost no other pubâ€" Weston I have calmly examined the May 23 issue of your publicaâ€" tion and have concluded, with due regard to my partisan perâ€" spective, that your coverage of the May 18 Liberalâ€"NDP confrontation at the Crang Plaza is seriously biased and/ or simply incompetent. It is at variance to the coverage given the event on both naâ€" tional television networks, virâ€" tually every Toronto radio station, all other Northwest Metro weeklies and the dailies, with the exception of the Globe and Mail â€" and we have since had a constructive discussion with the Globe‘s reâ€" porter.

TORONTO 15 CH 1â€"1129 CH 4â€"6061 My own dealings on this question with local authoriâ€" ties and with Ottawa officials have shown they will be very The key question for the fuâ€" ture of both the Canadian Naâ€" tional Exhibition and the Olymâ€" pic Games is whether the holdâ€" ers of oldâ€"fashioned and conâ€" servative concepts will accept Mr. Fuller‘s proposition that "the Military requirements for the continuance of Downsview are limited." As you will see, I provided the original bones which Mr. Fuller has now clothed with warm respectibility and imâ€" mense practicability. All that remains to be seen is whether Metro‘s politicians will conâ€" tinue their sabotage, and deniâ€" gration of the many brilliant plans put forward for exciting Urban growth (as Mr. Allan Burton so rightly fears) or whether they will for once, rise to the occasion which is now presented to them. Fuller and Paisley agree on use for Downsview airport 1 enlarged on my original Downsview â€"suggestion _ only two years ago, and have pleaâ€" sure in enclosing copies of my original release on this topic as well. Your newspaper reâ€" cently editorialized on subject and 1 fully concur with your comments. In respect to Buckminster Fuller‘s recommendation for the full utilization and exâ€" ploitation of the Downsview Airport Site, | am naturally very proud that a proposition I first put forward ten years ago for the utilization and deâ€" velopment of the Downsview site has at least the support of so distinguished, and interâ€" nationally recognized, a planâ€" ner as Mr. Buckminster Fuller. Why was it always a danger to underestimate the power of religion? Without the fear of the Lord, man‘s fear of his own kind would set in. History proved this point in times of With great dismay I read in your paper about the results of the latest meeting of the Board of Education of North York: to drop religious instrucâ€" tion is a blow against the rights of man. It attacks peoâ€" ple ~both for religion and against it, because before we could either take part in its instruction or abstain; now our freedom is deprived of this choice. The trustees who voted for this to happen were: Mr. Burns, Mr. Corie, Mr. Coâ€" wan, Mrs. Dean, Mr. McCleary, Mr. Moscoe and Mr. Scott. Dear Sir: Dear Sir: I would appreciate a letter from you commenting on this matter at your earliest conâ€" venience, together with the assurance that the frontâ€"page ‘"news" in this most recent isâ€" sue is not indicative of the sort of reportage we can exâ€" pect from the Weston Times lications and news outlets, we feel that this protest is fully justified.

But who knows, in these exciting times, when urgent youth backed by experienced age, at least insist on change? Yours very truly, IRVING A. PAISLEY, (Mr. Paisley is a forâ€" mer North York conâ€" troller). To‘ complete the record of the board meeting, three trusâ€" tees were absent. Of those present, the trustees who tried to keep religious instruction in school were Mr. Bone, Mrs. Mahon, Mr. Newton and Mr. Wang. To them let us offer our true respect. atheistic upheavals. It was fear that caused the rulers of Communist Russia to deport millions of people to Siberia, and it was fear that caused the rulers of Nazi Germany to blame their troubles on the Jews. Suspicion, threat, and war are on one side of the recognition of God and its reâ€" sulting peace on the other. Let‘s guard ourselves! throughout this current elecâ€" tion campaign.
