On September 25, -the long-awaited public meet- ing to discuss sénior cit- izens housing in town will be held, but on. the same night, Reeve Chapman will be attending an important series of workshops and seminars on threatened single industry towns in Sudbury. "T don't really want to do this," she admitted, but added that in light of the re- cent Kimberly-Clark lay- offs in town, she decided to - attend the Sudbury session to gather information' on similar situations. Councillor Jim Ziegler will be the chairman of the seniors housing public meeting in her place. Reeve Chapman will also be one of several Nor- thwestern Ontario Mun- icipal Association delegates to meet with the Premier of Ontario, David Peterson, and his Cabinet in Thunder Bay this week.

Last weekend she went to the Thunder Bay District Mun- icipal League meeting held in Longlac. A special meeting of the Heads of Council Commit- tee was also held in Long- lac on September 5, and Reeve Chapman attended it as well. She will be re- turning to Longlac next week for the North of Sup- erior Development Council meeting to be held there. She explained that an Ad Hoc Committee of Council members and_represent- atives from local 565 of the United Paperworkers Int- ernational Union has been formed, and the first meet- ing of that group, formed following the Kimberly- Clark mill layoffs, was held on September 9.

"*People should be made aware of the work Councils do," she said. Regular meetings of Terrace Bay Township Council are held the second and fourth Mon- days of each month. Keep caboose At its annual conference in Toronto on August 26, the Association of Munici- palities of Ontario (AMO), of which both Terrace Bay and Schreiber are mem- bers, passed a "strongly worded"' resolution oppos- ing the application by CN Rail and CP Rail to remove cabooses from trains. According to a United Transportation Union news release, the 1,300 delegates at the conference spoke out against recent proposals to replace manned caboose with an End-of-Train-In- formation-System (ETIS), citing safety as a major concern. The MPP for Schreiber and Terrace Bay, Gilles Pouliot, has also spoken out against the ETIS units. In a letter to the federal Minister of Transport, John Crosbie, Pouliot said he is "highly skeptical" of the effectiveness of the ETIS and called for public hearings across Canada. Dave McDuffe, Canad- ian Legislative Represent- ative for the United Trans- portation Union said he was pleased with the out- come of the AMO vote. "This is a tremendous victory for railway safety in this country," he was quoted as saying in the UTU release. *'The elected municipal representatives of Ontario recognize that the public wants to be pro- tected from the possibility of future tragic derail- ments." See The UTU was at the AMO conference, provid- ing delegates with up-to- date information on issues relating to railway safety. The union is conducting a national campaign to keep the caboose on Canada's railways. Its slogan is '*Trains are safer with a caboose."' The UTU's head office is in Ottawa. Shop in Rossport.
