Reactions Mixed On Regional Rule By THE CANADIAN PRESS ; Ontario legislature com- mittee report recommending re- organization and consolidation of existing municipal govern- ments and establishment of re- gional governments drew mixed reaction from representatives of areas affected. The select committee on mu- nicipal Jaw, in a 110-page re- port tabled Tuesday in the leg- islature, recommended that a system of all-encompassing re- gional governments replace lo- cal governments, using existing county boundaries as a tenta- tive basis. Powers that should be borne by the proposed regional gov- ernments were listed in the re- port as assessment, taxation, policing, welfare, arterial roads, public health, hospitals and planning. Hamilton Mayor Victor Copps was probably the most enthusi- astic civic official. The mayor, who strongly favors regional government, said Wednesday he only wished the committee had given firm direction instead of recommendations. WOULD LIKE SOONER It will probably take at least a year to implement the recom- mendations and he would like to see implementation sooner, Mr. Copps said, Mayor Robert Johnston of St. Catharines said he had no doubt that his area would be gov- erned by some form of re- gional government. He said he would not be surprised if the change came within five years. Niagara Falls Mayor Robert Keighan said many of/the rec- ommendations have merit. The county system is gradually fall- ing apart and some smal! mu- nicipalities cannot afford to pro- vide many municipal services. Waterloo County, the area suggested by the committee as the first one in which its rec- ommendations should be put into effect, has its booster of the plan in Clerk - Treasurer Charles Stager of Kitchener. He said regardless of wha' the politicians might say re- gional government would: give the taxpayer the most for his tax dollar. Halton County Warden Her- bert Merry of Oakville said he warned county council two months ago it would have to en- large to a Metro system or be swalled up by either Hamilton or metropolitan Toronto. HE OPPOSES Opponents of the plan include Murray McKnight of Dundas, Wentworth County warden, who urged caution in dealing with committee recommenda- tions. He said the report re- quires study and should not be implemented too quickly. Dr. W. A. Taylor, reeve of Os- goode Township in Carleton County, said existing problems could be solved within the framework of existing county governments, London Mayor Gordon Stronach said the re- port was much too general. James J. Gibson of Port Perry, Ontario County warden, said he and many other county officials fear increased provin- cial control government. Other officials opposed to the} vommittee recommendations in- cluded: Mayor W. B. Dutton of Wood- stock, who said it is "probably something that will have to come;"' Huron County Clerk - Treas- urer J. G. Berry of Goderich who commented: "I do not see)" how the plan can apply com- pletely in respect to each county;"' Simcoe Mayor Alfred Judd: "Iam somewhat concerned about the development of re- gional government in areas not predominately urban, compara- ble to Norfolk County' and Delhi Mayor E. W. Phillip, who said there is "a lot of dyna- mite in the idea. I don't think municipal councils will take too} kindly to that." | Churchill Was Convinced He Would Die Very Young LONDON (Reuters)--Sir Win-| Having discovered the differ- ston Churchill was convinced injence in their ages "he burst into his early life that he would die young and that he had only a short time to cover the course destiny had mapped out for him.

La Presse Firing Rouses Levesque QUEBEC (CP) -- Resources Minister Rene Levesque issued a prepared statement Wednes- day criticizing Montreal La Presse for the dismissal of its editor - in - chief, Gerard Pelle- tier. The statement, distributed to reporters in the legislature) press gallery, expressed a de- sire for the establishment of a new evening newspaper. Montreal La Presse, an eve- ning newspaper, is Canada's largest -French-language daily. Mr. Pelletier, 44, announced Tuesday he had been dismissed when they see the end of an era approaching, an end which they always accelerate by their own stupidities."' MONTREAL (CP) -- Le De- voir says "discreet. and unoffi- cial" negotiations began Wed- nesday night to get Gerard Pel- letier back on the job as editor- in-chief of Montreal La Presse. Le Devoir says some direc- tors of La Presse feel they ap- proved the dismissal of the edi- tor-in-chief without knowing all the circumstances, and think he should be rehired. THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thursdey, April 1,1965 3 OTTAWA (CP) -- Opposition Leader Diefenbaker said in a national television address Wed- nesday night that French-Cana- dians will never win any impor- tant constitutional changes the federal government's pro- posed formula for amending the constitution is approved. Mr. Diefenbaker, speaking in the CBC's free-time political se- ries, The Nation's Business, said he is concerned about the government's handling of the constitutional issue. Diefenbaker Says Formula No Aid To French-Canada The formula woul* put a "strait jacket" on the constitu- tion. "I fear that if this formula is accepted it will mean to all Canadians a stalemate," he said, "To French-Canadians, it will mean that never again will they be abl to secure any desirable changes in the constitution nor will they ever in the future be able to fulfil their legitimate' aspirations and hopes." Sommers emt and said he was told the reason was the publication by La Press of two erroneous head- ings last Friday. Mr. Levesque's statement de- scribed the action of La Presse as "the usual panic of interests LOIN OF NAG CLUB'S FARE CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (AP) The end of a horse meat shortage has settled a stew at the Harvard University Fac- ulty club. Since the meat rationing days of the Second World War, horse steak has been a standard item at the Harvard club, Fifteen to 20 orders a day are served with a special mushroom sauce. But three weeks ago the club was told by meat bro- kers that horse meat was so scarce they couldn't fill the club's regular six week order of 200 pounds. So the steak, which sells for $1.50 at luncheon and $2 at dinner, was taken from the menu. Today, however, word was spread for the benefit of the horse meat lovers that al- though sirloin of horse was still in short supply, 200 pounds of tenderloin could be expected by the weekend. Trying to describe its taste, club manager Charles L Coul- son said: "It's... I like it but not as well as beef, It's sweet and purplish." SPECIAL PURCHASE €"herney's FURNITURE WORLD CARPET VALUES!
