"Every effort should be made by both to bring this about at this time." The minister said the economy of Canada is expanding and added: "The outlook for the year ahead is good. ~All of us, goveriments, labor and management, working together, should be able to make it a happy and prosperous year for Canada."

Carried. ) nine Four in Running For Oni. Warden A four-way battle looms this yea. for Ontario County's top office, that of Warden. The warden for the 1962 'council will be elected at county coun- cil's inaugural meeting on Jan. 16, at 2 pam. in the county building at Whitby, ' or Se Unofficially, four reeves are in the running: John MecCrorvie, of Beaver- ton, Earl Dowswell, of Uxbridge Twp, Shermun- Scott of - Pickering -Town- ship, and Patrick Shechan, of the town of Ajax. If all four are nominated and an "election is necessary, the new warden will be elected by open ballot. Each member of the council is asked by County Clerk William Manning, who will preside over this election, for whom he casts his vote. Each mem- ber will rise and announce his favored candidate. . The vote continues until one candi- -date emerges with a clear majority. - Beaverton village has not been rep- resented by the county warden since 1944, when the late Dr. C. J. Devine was clected warden, The last' warden from Uxbridge Township was John Rae who was elected in 1946. Picker ing Township's last warden was Wm. Westney, elected in 1949. 1 Ajax, one of the newest municipali- ties in the county, has never been given the honor of being the home of the warden, The late John Mills, the town's first reeve, contested the seat unsuccessfully a few years ago. 'Mr, Sheehan, last year deputy-reeve, moved up 'to the reeve's chair at the last election and at the last meeting of county council let it be known that he-would-scck the warden's-office; In the coming days, the candidates for this office will be doing their cam- paigning, if any, among the reeves and deputy-reeves of the county, Un: like candidates in any other election, they will be pretty sure before Jan, 16 just how they will rate.
