Six people were asked this question during a man on the street survey. They said: Mrs, Belle Burke, 340 Mor- land: "It doesn't really mat- ter to me what they do. I don't bother with politics or any of the current affairs. I have a hard enough time try- ing to keep pace with my own life.

Mrs. Arkle Matthew, 122 Crom- well Ave.: "I think they should fix the downtown area. I think that it is pretty hard for those merchants. There should be some park- ing facilities set up for them.

After 38 vengeance killings and 10 kidnappings for ran- som, 1966 ended in a New Year's Eve blast of machine- gun fire. This left three more dead and brought a nationwide clamor for an end to slaughter in Sardinia. Interior Minister Paolo Em- ilio Taviani ordered a battalion, of army-trained, batt] ipped try had 500 slayings in a 1950-55 blood-bath of banditry and ven- detta, and the violence flared up again last year. It is an old feuding region. Kidnappings for ransom aver- age almost one a month. Rus- tling of cows and sheep is a way of life. Police often are ignored and scores are settled under the ancient law of "sa giustizia'-- justice is mine. Police were inclined to attrib- ute the latest killings, on New Year's Eve, to violation of that unwritten rule. They said Fran- cesco Piras, 58-year-old black- (smith, had been whispered about Celere riot police rushed from Padua to mountainous central Sardinia.

Mr. Murray said it likely will be 10 days or two weeks before the commission resumes sit- tings. The royal commission was reconstituted Tuesday at a spe- cial sitting of the British Co- lumbia cabinet, after it had been ruled invalid last week by Chief Justice J. 0. Wilson of the B.C.

With this in mind, the council suggests that such automatic annual increases be kept under $300 by school boards.
