1113 EXAMINER WEDNEAY AUG 15 1955 Town Manager Can Save Barrie Council have been giving some consideration to tneappointmentof Tom Manager iiiom local taxpayers we have heard little comment on the subject oer tainlyno letleu have come in for publica tion But there are some people herenwe understand who oppose the idea noting our already high tax rate and they consider on additional salary to be unnecessary at this time Down in Prince Edward island the iown of Summerside hasbeen considering the same thing Bupporting the plan The JournalPioneer states While there may be criticisms to the Council Manager plan in principle we do not know ofany valid objections to it as practical procedure If he is competent he can save the amount of his salary many times over provided the councillors leave him alone We presume that in reaching their decl slon the members of Council have given careful thought to this latter point Several years ago New Brunswick town appointed manager and he remained only few months because of constant interference from some of the councillors If our coun cillors have not carefully thought this point over they should do so before considering another appointment There must be no petty interference from the councillors if town manager is to be effective For instance if department heads take their criticisms of his decisions to committee chairmen and these chairmen interfere then the manager becomes unable eifectiveiy to carry out his duties Or if he discharges someone who is airiend of one the councillors and that councillor inter feres he is not giving the manager chance to do his lob It should be definitely under stood thatonce man is flppolnted and takes over the yob the personal considera tions that often interfere with the proper functlonlng of departments must cease This is one of the great values of the CouncilManager plan an increase in efficiency License Plegs rewlfioaimgn MM ix The federal government plans to put into effect licensing symmj for operators of small boats Because of the tremendous increase in pleasure boating slncethe war Ottawa has been underpressure from many organiza tions to provide control on heating similar to that which has controlled the motoring public for many years Now action is going to be taken so that every Canadian powerboat operator will have to carry drivers license and al most certainly paSS test to get it This decision to control boat operators was not unexpected At the 1955 annual conference of the Canadian Power Squad tons an educational body whichhas as its aim the teaching of rules for safety on the water nmendment of the canada Shipping Act along this line was forecast by Capt Johnson assistant chief of nautical servicesx The main targetof the newkegulations he made clear is the host of outboardAboata that have crowded onto the waterwaysin recent years Now there is nothing wrong with out boards properly used There likely lshothv mg else that has odd as much tothe pleasure Canadians gist from the outdoors But ah outboard motor in the wrong hands becomes thalweapon Foundation adyanced this argument precautions iorlo years Notion thing the same system of control over boatmen is going to be applied acrosscon lhe thoughtful boatman bas nothing to worry about But the person whohas no regard for the safety of himself or othérs will be brought under control of the RCMP The result is bound to be greater security for the public generally Editorial Notes As each day of August passes inconspic uoust by possibulty of fall election he comes more remote Muskoka magistrate recentiyr stated that the federal departmentof justice has given ruling that the0ntario Provincidl Police or even privateciticen may lay court charge against anyone alleged to have
