the tribune stouffviue ont thursday july 13 1950 the stouffviue tribune established 1888 member of the canadian weekly newspaper association and ontario quebec newspapers association member of the audit bureau of circulations authorized as second class mail post office department ottawa issued every thursday at stouffviue ontario in canada 200 in usa 250 a v nolan son publishers notes and comments we have a wonderful park we in stouffviue should be justly proud of our town park if you havent visited this beauty spot this summer youve missed something here are nearly twenty acres of beautiful surrounding trees wellkept lawns rippling stream and all the facilities which go to make a fine picnic and recreational grounds the recent formation of the stouffviue community centre which was in reality the formation of a new park board along government specified lines is just another step in keeping these fine acres uptodate under the new managing setup the municipality will benefit to the extent of twentyfive percent on all capital expenditures made in the park the grounds have been thoroughly mapped out with the location of present buildings indicated and assistance may be forthcoming from the ontario recreational department if needed in deciding the proper location for future buildings such as washrooms additional bleachers or swimming pools one cannot help but feel- a tinge of real municipal pride when they visit the park any saturday now and listen to the fine comments passed by visiting picnic parties on the beautiful surroundings to be found here in the stouffviue park busy bees to turn out one pound of honey it is estimated that honey bees must have taken the nectar from more than 62000 clover blossoms and to accomplish this there would be required some 2750000 visits to the blossoms by the bees in other words to collect sufficient nectar to make up one pound of honey a bee must proceed from hive to flower and back again 2750000 times when one considers the distances honey bees some times traverse in search of clover fields in some cases a mile or two from the hive one begins to obtain an idea in a slight degree of the number of miles the industrious little creature must travel in order that many may possess a pound of honey quebec chronicletelegraph councils and school costs considerable criticism is levelled from time to time at the system which requires municipal councils to levy taxes for school expenditures and yet deprives them of any voice in determining what those expenditures should be the criticism has been voiced around the stouffviue municipal council table on more than one occasion and more particu larly in the last decade since school costs have mounted to unheard of levels costs in the local public school have gone upwards by leaps and bounds and the municipal council which must levy the taxes for these expenditures is powerless to put on the brakes the complaint was levelled during recent sessions of york county council and similarly protested by the association of reeves and mayors a request that munici pal councils should at least be permitted the right of appeal to an authoritative body such as the ontario municipal board when they believe educational budgets excessive has gone by the boards apparently while the local municipal council in stouffviue favors a new high school here it is not these capital expenditures which are the greatest burden on the taxpayer it is the current school expenditures which form the heavy charge upon the home owners and it is only reasonable to contend that it is desirable that councils should be in a position to at least appeal if they so wish against these current costs amounting to about onethird of the tax rate in most municipalities while this right of appeal in no way would reduce the managerial powers of school boards which they now enjoy it is possible that the knowledge that their estimate of current expenditures may be questioned would have a salutary effect on them wage increase a strike of workers in one skilled trade was recently averted when the employers granted concession equivalent to a weekly increase of 500 a friend of one of the workmen congratulating him on the outcome of negotiations was surprised to receive the reply baloney the workman then went on to explain that four of the five dollars gained in the dispute would go to a new pension fund leaving only one dollar a week more to come to the workman in wages that wasnt the worst of it from his point of view the fivedollar increase put him into a higher tax bracket than hed been in before so most of that extra dollar if not all of it would be eaten up by deduction for taxes and unem ployment insurance sure the workman said he knew he was five dollars a week better off but try to explain to his wife why she shouldnt have more money for her weekly shopping to keep peace in the family he was letting her have three dollars more a week from now on that meant that he had to make out with three dollars less for himself wage increase baloney he repeated printed word the old home town jul frt cft by stanley hurryand dust off thtop o m picture frames if fati5icia

byer stouffviue ont complete farm sales service larly galling reading because we have here in fort william the largest sawmill in ontario namely the great lakes lumber and ship ping limited closed down because no sawlogs have been made avail able to it although many such grow on areas under concession to pulp and paper companies in spite of many public statements by members of our government that logs will be provided no concrete evidence of such provision is noticeable this sawmill is capable of producing 100 million feet of lumber each year which would represent a sizeable contribution to the present short lumber supply this particular company also owns twenty portable sawmills which could be put to work immediately to produce lumber within a few days if only the necessary trees were made avail able to them unfortunately all these trees and log timber although belonging to the people of ontario are apparently under the control of a pulp and paper monopoly who are exercising a stranglehold on all standing tim ber belonging to the people of ntario in this province all this is set out in the ontario royal commission report on forestry by majorgeneral howard kennedy published in 1947 and carefully shelved ever since could anything be more ridicu lous starvation in the midst of plenty how much longer are the people of ontario going to lie down under this vicious misuse of their natural resources by a single industry the entire economy of this whole district has been seriously hurt by the closing up of this particular sawmill which was creating 7i million dollars worth of wealth each year out of our timber resources all the retail merchants in fort william and port arthur have felt the loss of the purchasing power resulting from this operation it has created a minor artificial recession in the business life of these communities during a period when all indus tries using forest material are booming surely such a fantastic situation if brought to the know ledge of the real owners of these forests the- people of ontario would result in such an outcry that even the influence of an industry such as the pulp and paper indus try will pale beside the peoples demand
