The other 19 men also are charged with the same offences. DIES IN CLASH Dr. Drouin was killed along with Joseph and Irene Fortier in the clash at Reesor Siding, 32 miles west of here.

F. Cannon School will be increased by four classrooms and a general purpose room and Ade- laide McLaughlin 'will have four rooms added. This total represented a $17,000 cut by the Board from its original eseimate, but it did little to please Mayor Lyman Gifford and Alderman Clifford Pilkey who have stoutly op- posed the amount of this Board expenditure all along. His Worship stuck to his (Austerity) guns and told Coun- ell that he would rather be "'old-fashioned and pay as I go, than be modern and head over heels in debt" -- Mr. Pilkey said he was opposed to general purpose rooms as long as there are portables in use. ('Getting children into class- fooms must come first. A general purpose room in every school would be nice but we can't afford it.") > Said Mayor Gifford: , "I @m pleased that Board members sharpened their pencils. They could have reduced the issue $30,000 more by taking off that general purpose room. I don't believe it is Reeded. Many schools are without them." MUST PUBLISH FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Section 223a of the Municipal act passed last year is a wise bit of legislation. : It requires publication of the audited financial statement of the municipality and the report of the auditor thereon. The Department of Municipal Affairs, watchdog of On- tario's municipal world, says: "The enactment of this section marks a milestone in the development of adequate methods of financial statement prte- Sentation and reporting by the municipalities of Ontario to their ratepayers." Purpose of the move -- which is long overdue -- is threefold: Inform ratepayers of the municipality's financial position. Give to elected and appointed officials an oppor- tunity to report to the ratepayers. Create an interest on the part of ratepayers in the municipality, The information must be published; Capital and loan fund balance sheet. Revenue fund balance sheet. -. Corresponding statements of surplus, and >» The statement of revenue and expenditure. The auditor's report shall disclose: ' The scope of the audit of the municipality and » its local boards. 5 Comments which, in the auditor's opinion, are es- sential to the clarification of any particular phase of the financial affairs of the municipality, or its board. Any circumstances which prevent the auditor from { expressing an opinion on the affairs of the municipality and its local boards, without qualification, and The opinion of the auditor. Says the Department: "Enactment of section 223a requires, for the first time, | accounting of the activities of the municipa- li made to each ratepayer. This development presents a-challenge to those responsible for the preparation of the fihancial statements of the municipalities. If the financial statement and the report of the auditor thereon are to be as useful and as understandable to the average ratepayer ai is possible, care must be exercised in their preparation." ; Publication of financial statements from municipalities ig' otep in the right direction. The day has arrived when the must take an interest in such matters. Municipal is big business. It affects every taxpayer, . _ DEATHS foreign minister of the three honorary members of the Alberta Press ag London ir Harold Franklin, 77, hero of a crucial Tearguard battle of the Dunkirk campaign in 1040, Goaer for St. John|Years was accompanist for the county in the last New Bruns-|!ate Al Jolson, wick legislature. | Thomas Beswick|rison, 102, one of the last men Windross, long - time Alberta|who could recall British Colum- wawepaper man and one "a might will end the warm wea- ther in southern Ontario but more snow sleet and rain/are due for Northern Ontario as a vigorous disturbance moves through that area today.
