monday april 8 the location is the auditorium pickering dist highschool church street north pickering beginning at 6 pm the council of whitchurchstouffville has authorized the spending of 9000 tocbmplete an indepth study dealing with thfs towns greatest concern noise cost to markham is estimated at over ovuu s j 7 r i j this is taxpayers money and in our opinion money well spent for no council regardless of members personal feelings could in the interest of the municipality afford to stand idly by and do nothing par ticularly in the face of so much conflicting evidence- admittedly none of us are professionals in this field v the dept of transport has its experts who apparently have looked into the matter closely v ui andrew s harris a consultant with the firm of boitberanek and newman in corporated is also an expert yettheir decisions vary greatly who is right regardless the ones who have the most to lose or gain from this project are the people you and i i that is why we would urge all residents to take a- personal interest in the proceedings and v if possible attend the inquiry in pickeringtheres strength in numbers and no one is more of this fact than the politician

flatly that tlie conservative government has never been a friend to catholic educators is unfair friendly or not thefoundation plan introduced by prime minister robarts some ten years ago with the support of all parties has made it 1 possible for separate boards as a rule to bring salaries of catholic teachers up to practical equality with those of public school teachers the policy of equal grant for equal need and effort is not perfect but it hasimproved the financial viability of separate schools and is being constantly refined as the major beneficiaries of this improvement catholic teachers have little cause for complaint today as compared to their dedicated predecessors of a decade ago most of them i am sure appreciate this progress in their status as well as our patient appeal to jthe goodwill of our fellowcitizens that brought it about- unlike mrlconney we do not fear that catholic education will jgo uhless the conservative government goes our school system isqoted in faith in themostfun damental statutes of this country and in more than a century of survival andgrowth- regardless of political parties no party can do more for separateschools than the majority of the population feel just and fair violent diatribes especially by persons in mr cooneys position do no good politicaldecisions do it is true affect x education teachers as well as trustees may as individualsrfeel one party or the other to be more favourable r to separate schools as membersof boards however our trustees- willcontinue about their business uncludirigv patient nonpartisan dialogue with jjovernj ment within biir schools- we count on our teachers to care for and teach our children by wordand example also without partisan spirit most of them we are sure prefer the wisdom of this
