Coombe, told the Pub- lic Affairs Committee of the Oshawa Chamber of Com- merce, Tuesday, that the fed: eral and provincial govern- ments are rot paying their full share toward the educational and social services of the com- munity. Mr. Coombe was speak- ing on the re-assessment of the city being made by his com- pany. dey He said that education was the bulwark of any country, and that the community can only go so far in meeting the educational expenses. He noted also that the social services have grown to be a burden on the community not envisaged by the people who draughted the municipal assessment act. He noted that in many coun- tries the bulk of the educational costs are paid by the central- ized government, and everyone pays their full share. He stated Oshawa ratepayers are fortunate that only 40 per cent of the tax dollar goes to education, He said that in some communities the proportion is as high as 65 per cent. The speaker also told of the system of assessment used in New Zealand where land only is assessed. He mentioned that some western provinces are looking into the system Reading Has Top Performance Oshawa Motor Sport Club member, Al Reading, turned in the outstanding performance of the day at the Oakville - Trafal- gar Light Car Club's Clubmen's day races held at the newly con- structed Mosport Park road racing circuit, June 3. The Mosport Park track is situated 12 miles north of Bow- manville, and will be the site of the Players '200 opening day rance June 24. In the under 1600 cc and Can- ada class race, Mr. Reading placed first in class and first overall. In another race against cars costing up to twice as much as his homebuilt machine, he managed a fourth in class and fifth overall. His average speed around the 2.4-mile track was slightly better than 68 mph.

"Wet" Vote Under 60PC BRECHIN (Staff)--The vote for cocktail bars and dining room lounges was lost by a five per cent vote in Mara town- ship approximately 30 miles north of Oshawa. On the vote for cocktail bars, the "wets" received 550 votes, and the dry's 444. On the dining room vote, the wets received 536 votes while the drys re- ceived 460. A 60 per cent vote is needed to change the existing liquor by-laws. The wets mus- tered 55 per cent of the votes. Of the 1,450 eligible voters, over 1,000 cast ballots. This is well over 70 per cent of the possible votes. Beverage rooms were ap- proved by vote in 1936. Scru- tineers reported an unusually large number of spoiled ballots. It is not known if this will affect the percentage vote on a re- count. kJ ) i Bed at 121 12 Leah i SE hak.
