They are continually coming up with deck slons which create situations which 1 do not think could be duplicated in any other country except perhaps under a dictator ship Here 1s a case which Wustrates Just what I mean. Down in Ken sington borough a well-known res taurant owner, Peter Evans, has opened a new eating-house. Ahove his new premises, he erected a sign which exhibits his Hrm's trade mark, It is a huge fork, 28 feet long, and his intention was to have it {lluminated at night CHURCH ORJECTIONS But that sign ran afoul of ot ficialdom. Tt so happens that this new restaurant is next door to the entrance of a church, the Church of §t Mary Abbots. Im mediately one of the church offi clals registered a complaint That is the sign of the devil sald you can't put it there In due the complaint went before the borough council After due deliberation It gave its findings, The sign would have to go, It said The sign is inappropriate and injurious to amenity having re. gard to its position The counell therefore lodged an official complaint to the next higher authority, the Ministry of Town and Country Planning That august government depart ment has on its shoulders the re sponsibility of deciding whether the sign can stay in its position or will have to come down APPEAL LODGED Peter Evans, completely wy stified by all the fuss over his trade-mark, has lodged an appeal against the complaint, whioh means that there will be a fll scale departmental inguiry Meanwhile, the owed to stay In Hs § on his eatinghouse he A lowed to Muminate it h As he sat at lunch in the res taurant over which all this up heaval has arisen. Mr Evans said "1 thought some Kk of They quite now the {eter dt Say 1 am determined ww at alght a I re he he his Course gn 15 yosttion first it was all But, it isn't ws about it up, 1 am at joke ser SER 8 nd od Are here ( have it lit had planned." to Phere Is one sidelight whic may have some significance when the appeal Is heard, The huge fork on top of the restaurant three prongs. One authority has pointed out that the devil Is usually pletured as carrying a with two prongs Mr, Evans, naturally that the fork Is Just trade-mark for his has no religious all, he says It all sounds like a tale invented by a satirist who was anti-bureau oratie and anti-ecclesiastic.

RIGHT WORDS You don't have to be like any of these when you visit someone who's lll, It's easy to find the plght words when you're visiting somebody in the hospital, Simply say what you'd like to hear if you were in his place, For the most pant ably want to do the talking, In side the hospital he's had new adventures, met new people and conquered new problems HOMESPUN PSYCHIATRIST A good visitor 1s a good listener A friendly ear is worth a million vitamin pills it's nothing less than a homespun psychiatrist, Bilen hours knowing You be was you nrougt surrounded he'll prob Annexation Vote Said Meaningless Hy DON O'HEARN TORONTO Chairman J, A Kennedy of the Ontario Municipal Board finally said something that should have been sald long ago in giving his Welland annexation decision He pointed out that a vole on the annexation held by the Town. ship of Crowland was meaning less so far as the board was concerned He pointed out there was ne legal authority either for the vote or for the Board to take it into caisideration That in annexations the legis lature had entrusted the final decision to the Board, to be made alter a thorough hearing And that though it could order a vote it could do so only in the municipality applying for the an nexation order NOT AWARE First of all t may seem su prising that municipal officials as in the case of Crowland, wou! nol be aware of this This something, however tha NOL surprising to anyone wh has been close to the municipal ties from here The Ignorance of municipal aw and procedures that is often displayed by municipal leadership i amazing if not shooking SEEK BALANCE Secondly Surprising nunicipalities that de have M this type bother with Bevery annexation hat voles them there W what can be looked on as a loser, The underlying reason for an nexation is to balance the tax base In every group of municipalities there is one that will have a higher ratio of industrial assess. ment than the others, And the taxpayers in this munt. cipality are naturally going to vote overwhelmingly against an nexation or amalgamation. Therefore such a vote can't be a factor of any importance ONLY WAY There is a question here where the obligation of leadership lies. If everybody lived in the same municipality where he worked annexation might not be absolute ly necessary--though it would still have desirable features, However when a great number Mf workers in an industrial muni. cipality live in an adjoining "dor nitory" area there must be some orm of union For the dormitory ides the schools and other ex pensive services while the in dustrial area has the prize assess ment Should not the leadership in the richer area point this oul to its people and only strive to see that there is a fair dea Or should it fight question tooth and nail There is no real question, of rourse, for an enlightened leaden ship area pro the whole OTTAWA REPORT Building Industry Vital To Canada By PATRICK NICHOLSON The fet 16 yesrs of bumper harvests tor Canada's speculative bome-bullders have come to end, This was the gist of the timely warning given to the Ca- nadian Association of Real Fetate Boards last week hy Hon. David Walker, minister of public works "Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation reports thet the num ber of completed new houses re- maining unsold has risen in most cities, and that the vacancy rate in rentsl housing in ell major cities is higher than st any other time since before World War 11," the minister told the Resliors in convention Seven years ago, thie columm reported that Canada had s short ogee of 700,000 homes, secording to official estimates, The follow fog yenr, 1954, Conads enjoyed her first 100,000house year as our home - construction industry hit thet new peak. In the intervening seven years, a total of B75,204 new homes have heen construcied across Canada, substantially aided by the great building hoom stimulated by the Diefenbaker government in 1068 and 19% when over 200,000 homes were bullt But 3,000,000 citizens have heen added to our population in those SEVER Year or estimated 760,000 new families, Bo, If that earlier estimate of our need was acourate, there must still he a sociological demand for more homes, although the empty houses suggest that the economic demand hes dried up BUILDING POLICY SHIFT The minister explained that his statement thet unsold and un rented homes are increasing in number does nol mean that "every Canadian household now has & satisfactory dwelling." On the eontrary, he added BY-GONE DAYS 10 YEARS AGO Bouth Ontario Plowing was held near Ashburn 40 plowmen participating event an Ma with ove nt Roger G.
