halton cast mp published by home newspaper limited 22 malt 5ret south georgetown ontario w c 1iehn publisher page 4 thursday april 24th 1969 editorial comment its human nature controversial editorials invariably get two responses if one writes an opinion unpopular with a number ofpeople letters to theedi- tor will follow but if one has a number of people aqreeing with the thoughts expressed the response is usually only word 6f mouth some time ago when we ventured some comments on todaays young people and their attitude to educatin the mail bag was full for several weeks recently when we commented on pol- itical salaries and later on the cost of edu- cofion dozens of people made a poinl of expressing their agreement but only one took the trouble to agree in print we dont write editorials to get let ters necessarily but we do like to pass on opinions pro or con on topical questions of the day and unless there is some re sponse an editor can feel he is living in a vacuum it is human nature to protest when one disagrees and to keep ones agree ment- under wrapsv the best politicians lear ned this years ago if one -wants- to stay comfortably in office be against anything which costs money for education religion children pets and old age pensions its time that the public started com menting in print rather than leaving this solely to the editorial writers you might think you are only one small voice but the printed word is pow erful an editorial gets a measure of at tention it grows immensely when it is followed by a number of mail bag letters jim snow reports

years and am sure that mayor emmersdn an energetic and imaginative j did young man will soon set up a fj committee of representatives of industry business service clubs churches and other interested groups to arrange for this cele bration there is encouragement today in what seems ot be a mounting public outcry ag- ainst the cost of education in ontario but we have seen no indication that people are interested in grappling with the real problem mounting tax rates in most municipal ities are stirring a quiet revou1ion and the liberal opposition at queens park was quick fo capitalize with a vote of non-confi- lence they didnt expect to win only to gain ground at the expense of their politi cal opponents j but so far as we could tell the liberals concentrated only on who would pay rather than what should be paid whether we pay school costs in direct property taxes or in some less obvious way were going to pay and while its important thai property owners dont get saddled with too large a burden we must look at the overall picture and see that the province doesnt commit itself to buildings salaries courses of study special classes which are beyond our collective pocket if education costs hand as we fear they are the problem must be attacked from a wider concept than the parochial worry about whether more or less money comes from the muni cipality or from the province for the pro
