work the family farm Oakley Park Farm in the northern section of what is now ward two He farmed Oakley Pork until 1952 when rising taxes made the operation of the farm uncconomical The farm Charlie

about what should be done in Barrie and is quite willing to discuss them FUMBLE With the exception of clean ing up the bay he says the present council has pretty well accomplished the things which wanted to do when ran in 1959 although think there has been some unnecessary fumbling around in the pro ccss also think that they have become involved in need less controversies over such things as the new motel and the Steel Street apartment business This might have been avoided by clcarcut re ports from committees to council 0n the question of how the secondary sewage plant should he financed Mr Newton states am against raising the water rates This would be hard on the small property owner and relatively easy on some industries which have their own water one thing would push for if elected

govern ed by single council embrac ing all municipalities with one board of education and Witbhll services such as police fire health and welfare handled on an area rather than munici pnl basis This was the prediction made last night by Reeve Sarns of Waterdown speaker at the wardena banquet for county council In the next decade Mr Sam said the rising economy and productivity of Canada are going to spill over into even the most sparsely settled areas and with the shifts of population that will accompany this grow in will come the need for an astute type of local councillor able to cope with modern ad ministration ALMOST URBAN Many counties are now al most entirely urban the speaker noted and require an urban outlook on questions of public transportation utility services planning and police protection Mr Sums cited Scarborough Township as an example An area which 10 years ago was farming nrca now has on ur ban population of 200000 but is still governed by township council in the

more flexible means of administration geared to the needs of semiurban areas Mr Sums admitted that his predictions of area government seemed far reaching but told the councillors that almost all of the statutory authority now exists for the provision of this new type of government BIG STEP The big stop he said would be taken when the self lnteresLs of local councillors are overcome by an awareness and sincere desire on the part of oil to face the question square ly without regard to the fact that they may be shortening their own political future In conclusion the speaker suggested that more voluntary ctroperation was needed In the area at land controls We must get away from the constant internal struggle with in county boundaries for Indus trial assessment hlr Sams said Unless we approach this question with greater clarity of purpose we will merely nibble away at our primary agricul tural soil and areas of natural beauty to dcspoil them forever ina race tor financial and

1302 pupils with 19 schools and 41 teachers There are problems one of which was the fact that there was loss of $1500 in grants by the size of the area in the south and that if this had one more
