Many assessments were confirmed in a late afternoon review as appel lants failed to appear. Some re ceived reductions even thoug they did not appear 15 CONFIRMATIONS Only two reductions were al lowed in court judgments where appellants were present, Fif teen were confirmed. Eleven reductions were recommended by the four - man Board Assessors In the first case heard, T. R Prest, Simcoe street north, was allowed a five percent reduction for location. Peter A.

Police testimony showed the accused was driving of without headlights and also ing drove through a red light at Mil! street before he was finally apprehended on a service sta tion parking lot. Kluska told the court he had attended a wedding on Olive avenue and had drank two or three bottles of beer. On arriving home he discovered he was out of cigarets and was on his way to a restaurant to. get more when he was stopped by the police cruiser, He could not recall seeing a red light at the Mill street intersection, he said John M. Greer, counsel for the accused, said it was a question of assessing the evi dence of the accused and the police officers. The accused, ac cording to police evidence, had not staggered and did not seem to have been too unsteady on his feet. The accused had also been able to give a reasonable description of the routes he had taken to the restaurant and previously to his home from the wedding. "It may be a borderline case Mr. Greer concluded The confusion of the driver in regard to the red light, to gether with the driving without headlights and the police of- ficers' evidence regarding the accused's condition, was enough for a conviction Crown Attorney Bruce Affleck told the court In passing sentence, gistrate Frank §.

"I hope the public will understand when |we fall behind in our works pro- gram," he said. | Ald. Finley Dafoe, who for years has complained bitterly lthat the board of works never got its share of the financial pie, called for the payment of more expenditures out of cur- rent revenue.

RESTRICTIONS BOTHERSOME "One of the things that bothers the NUPSE national executive is the restrictions the governments of both the province and the country put on their employees. "Provincial and federal gov- ernments, as well as municipal governments and civic boards, do not believe public service employees have the knowledge, know how and stability to man- age their own affairs. But the public service employees have done much more to win the con- fidence of the people than the governments they serve," Mr. Little said. According to its national pres- ident, NUPSE has grown in only a few years, from a very small group to be the ninth largest union affiliated with the Canadian Labor Congress. Mr. Little urged the Local 45 membership that its labor union activity is one of the most im- portant phases of a member's daily life : MEMBER ATTITUDE A union member's attitude must be one of sincere citizen- ship and one that will bring credit to his community. Em- pleyers, unions and public serv- ants must be synonymous with good citizenship, he said.

Says Bargaining Right Ignored said of management. Manage- ment has not risen as well as its employees. We find manage- ment in public service often re- fuses to sit down and bargain in good faith with the employees. "People have often been laid off and fired because they at- tended the first organizational meeting in hospitals. But, no longer is a hospital employee expected to subsidize the hospi- tak as he was before NUPSE local unions were organized in the hospitals," Mr. Little said. |APATEY.
