village of a- bout 1000 permanent residents and is situated approxtttately 118 miles northeast of georgetown but during the summer months of what council did beating ajround the bush question of disposing of a towoowned pro perty on maple avenue has become so confused in technicality that the subfect seems to bave been dropped by council for the time being the matter arose some time ego when an offer was received by a ratepayer to purchase the land for a commercial building council fav oured its sale but decided it should be advertis ed to give any prospective buyer a chance investigation shewed that in a zoning plan just adopted by council this land is designated as residential while a majority of council be lieves the land should be commercial and in fact several councillors have said they would not agree to houses being built there georgetown planning board has declined to rezorte the land in view of legislation recently passed a minor ity of council would advertise the land for sale and allow the buyer 90 days to prevail on the planning board for a change of heart others xotild ask a prospective buyer to detail what he intends build others would sell it outright and let the buyer worry about what he could do the question seems to revolve in a circle the planning board formed to oversee the future growth of georgetown cannot condone an immediate change in a zoning plan particular ly when it comes as a request from council which has accepted the plan council cannot advertise residential land for sale with the thought in the back of their minds thaty they would refuse a buyer permission to erect a house nor can council advertise the land as commercial when it is residential ly zoned the paradox remains therefore that the town has land which it wishes to sell and convert to revenue property and at least one buyer is in the rtiarfcet who has offered a substantial fig ure perhaps some wise solomon will come forth with the answer railway warns danger canadian

who controls a considerable segment of american life through his leadership of long shoremen on the west coast a controversial figure the americanborn bridges has been subject to deportation attempts by the american government his union has been branded as communistdominated and ousted from the cio his television appearance show ed that he has brains and personality he parried questions most of

management have common aims according to mr bridges the two go in opposite directions management try ing to profit at the expense of labour and labour trying for a bigger share of business profits thinking of this kind is doubly dangerous it places labour in the position of neer trusting management of always feeling workers are be ing exploited and too constant pressure of this sort of
