He | would not, owing to the obligation of his office, state what he would advise in the matter. "We hope that the asso iation general meeting will at least be we some value to the various municipal- ities,," Mr. Mason pointed out. "should they care to take individ- ual action. "The association executive has gone to considerable trouble to oh- tain every possible fact that has any bearing on the rate problem, "Speaking personally, I have not been in a very happy position. As president of the association I could not, of course, work solely in the interests of Oshawa; rather, I nea to work with the good of all mua icipalities in view, preferring none above the other. Bowmanville, for instance, has its problem just the same as Oshawa, and was entitled to the same consideration by the association. "We take it for granted that the hydro commission have put their rates on a basis which enable them to take care of interest charges, to provide for the retirement of their bonds and debentures; and also to make repairs and renewals to the system. Now if their rates are equi- table and fair in all the muniei- palities concerned, then to reduce rates in one for them to increase rates in some other municipality to maintain their revenue throughout the entire distriet. "At the present time I am not prepared to say whether the rates to all the municipalities have been put into effect om an equitable ba- sis. Not having seen the supplemen- tary report, I don't hin Jt would be fair to the conrmity or the association for me to say anything it I did know. "However. all the information ir the possession of the executive will be given to all the municipalities when the general meeting is held. After that, it will be for the mun- icipalities to decide their future course for themselves whether the rates that were made effective on WHI Ri (NIA COUNT WHE RI QUALITY COTINTS Canada's Largest Retail Grocers mu is Produced in Canada Week in all Dominion Stores Buy Goods produced in Canada.
