comment what were always said for some weeks we have been on the verge of renewing an editorial plea for dissolu tion of north halton high school district on many occasions in tfie past this paper has stated various reasons for having higfi school matters controlled by more localized boards in preference to the present cumbersome set up which keeps men from five municipalities attend ing meetings n various towns and attempting to deal with matters affecting the whole of north ha ton while their interests lie primarily with the district where they reside now the acton milton editor whose views clashed at times rather radically with ours in the past has beat us to the punch an editorial which appeared in last week s milton qhampion and acton free press stated the case clearly and so closely does it approximate our views that we reprint it this week an endorsement as it were of what we think any resident of any of the five municipaltttetshoutd feel about high school mat ters here is the editorial titled let s get it over with it seems to be an almost annual cry but again georgetown has asked to withdraw from the north halton high school district board the county w taking action to assemble a meeting with members of the boards members of the consultative committee and municipal councils it will indeed be a large meeting the town of georgetown was forced into what it has continually regarded as an unhappy marriage by the grant structure of the province that offered preferences to districts they have never been completely sold on the other possible advantages of a district board of course the ear iter proposal to build a central school at speyside has long since been forgotten as the three towns acton milton and georgetown in the district continue to expand and the problems of each become more indivi dual it would seem the north halton district high school board could give way to an acton district high school board a mitton district high school board and a georgetown district high school board continuing to serve the areas they now normally serve there appears now no particular reason why this transaction could not take place each mun icipahty would then control the destinies of its school along with the representatives of the area municipalities that would be served each ofthe three schools in the district on completion of the present building program will be almost sentirely new that leaves the three on a fairly equal footing as far as facilities are concerned each district would name its own representatives to the local board rather than a three town board and they would direct their thinking to one school we think its time to scrap the north hal ton district high school board and forever still the annual criticism directed towards its structure ashgrove art and artists is speech theme at tea the annual daffodil tea was held in the church on thursday af ternoon april 2 with ladies from georgetown stewarttown norval hornby bethel

avro mat- tor i have reported to the house on two occasions on friday february 20th and on monday february 23rd and i should like now to bring the members up to date the negotiations which i have had have involved at least lour different groups namely labour the company the federal govern merit and a number of business men who are interested in the pro gress of this province from the standpoint of this go vernnicnt we have had the services of all departments and parucul arly those of economics planning and development welfare and l bour concerning labour i have had various meeting with mr podger and mr mcqueen representing the international association of machinists in my judgment their views have made common sense and they have been of marked as sistance to me from a business standpoint i have had the advice of mr j grant glassco the exec utive vice president of brazilian traction i have also had conver iations wth mr ian f mcrae the chairman of the board canadian general electric w h evans president honeywell controls ltd h m griffith vice president steel co of canada ltd ra g need les chairman b f goodrich ca nada ltd w a osboume vice chairman babcock and wilcox and goldie mccuhock ltd a a thorn bourgh president massey fergu son ltd thomas edmonson pre sident ferrantipackard and as well the organization of both the ontario and canadian divisions of the canadian manufacturing asso ciation i think therefore it can be said that i have brought to our assist ance the very best abilities and experience available the avro problem is a difficult one for the principal decisions lie completely within the area of the federal government and of course the company it is not a provincial matter at all to sketch in the background briefly may i point out that the production of the arrow a mill tary plane is a subject that lies entirely between the canadian government and the company the operation of avro for at least the past seven or eight years has been entirely a federal government mat ter the contract is federal and the operations have been paid for with federal money as i have i pointed out before the avro com i pany in 1951 or 1852 was asked to give up its project of building a jet liner and to concentrate on the building of a military plane the cf 100 this was followed by the present arrow 1 understand that in recent years the canadian government has advanced somt thing of the order of 450 million for this program it ii said that the termination of the contract will cost an additional 50 mil lion to 100 million to proce d with the program would cost vast ly increased sums of money somi estimatts being as high as 2 bil lion to complete 200 arrow planes whether or not this estimate is correct it in anj venl would involve very vast sums of mone which must bt pan fr m taxis the decision not to prrce d with his program is the cauc of the preint situatu n htth r i hi arrow would be obsokte before i ttm inl r il produdion or

continue as a substantial emplocr and an im portant part of the canadian in dustnal complex from the standpoint of the im pact on the workers may i say that there are different points of view as to the methods which could be followed in the demobilization of the industry m so far as it af ferts the arrow plane these de colons again are not decisions for this- government and we have to accept the facts as they are to htr there has not been any mar ked hardship owing to the fact of separation pa unempoment in urancc- and other factors which include some measure or recm plojment on the part of workers government avro situation neither has there been any mar ked effect to date on the munioi palities and this effect cannot be accurately assessed for several months td come nevertheless there is hanging over a large ele ment of our population and the municipalities that are concerned the possibilities of very serious problems which cannot be discoun ted concerning the welfare of the employees our departments of welfare labour planning and dc vclopmcnt health and economics have been looking into the satua tion we have been collaborating with labour the house is very familiar with the services that can be rendered by a provincial government and i state that this government is taking time by the forelock in estimating uie incid ence on these individuals and will do evexyottrig that lies within its power to soften the impact of sud den unemployment as to the municipalities there will be no marked effect on them for some time and therefore there is the opportunity to fully assess their situation may i how continued on page 7 norval united church rev r freel b a b d sundays 10 00 am sunday school 11 15 am morning worship st georges church anglican march 12th easter ii 8
