John Goodwin who lost the race for reeve against Mr. Down said there was a strong possibility he would not run for the new council. "I'm afraid the average working guy won't be able to afford the time away from work to do a good job and a great deal of policy de- cisions will have to be made', he said. Former Whitby mayor and now the town's fire chief War- ren Mowat said he would not comment at this time on whe- ther or not he will run in the election.

"What a plan. Build your own home for $15,000 on a $9,000 lot: Houses today cost about $13 per square foot." In an interview, New Demo-. cratic Party candidate Clifford Pilkey described HOME as "just the typical move by the government which is faced with a crisis and which should have been aware of this well in ad- vance." He said it "appears to be nothing but an election gim- mick to fool the citizens of Ontario." Mr, Pilkey added HOME will not meet Ontario's home shortage situation this year or in the near future, 'HOME isn't going to come anywhere near meeting the deficiency or lack of homes." COUNTER-ATTACK Incumbent riding representa- tive, Albert Walker, today lodged a counter-attack saying the HOME program was well received by 'fa large number of citizens in the various areas in which the program was in- troduced." The government announced this week that a total of 2,184 serviced lots would be offered across the province under HOME--a scheme Mr. Walker describes as one devised to home sible by removing "prohibitive downpayment burdens."

Mr. Dennis was given one month with the possibility of an extension to pay the fine, which was about 125 per cent of the total tax evaded. - Magistrate C, A, Thorburn said the developer had used "devious means" to evade paye ing taxes, but was taking into account when passing sentence that Mr. Dennis was already paying the tax arrears with in- terest. Of the total penalty, $2,100 was for 21 charges against com- panies owned by Mr. Dennis and the remainder for 21 per- sonal evasion charges. Earlier, Armando Manfredy, a revenue department investiga- tor, had told the court Mr. Den- nis had altered records of apart- ment buildings he owned. He said personal expense in- |voices were altered to show as company expenses. Mr. Manfredy said his three- year investigation also uncov- ered records indicating work done on buildings owned by Mr. Dennis which in fact had not been done. The charges, laid against Mr. Dennis by RCMP April 28, were on two information sheets. more than four feet long.

He explained that it was very rare for the OPP to go through a summer day with- $6,500. out an accident.
