The province's $9 million effort at EXPO was impressive, Mr. Watson said, especially the food and movie on Ontario. He recommends a week at EXPO to see and feel the big fair. West Shore Association - Finds No Fault With Council Addressing Council on Monday evening, Mr. Art King, President of the West Shore Asso- ciation, stated that his association could find no fault with council regarding the recent mill rate. "A study of the new mill rate shows that 67. 1, of this mill rate is for education and 19�, for the County of Ontario. We realize these two items are in an area of which Coun- cil has little or no control." Mr. King went on to outline a resolution which was passed at the Association's recent met- ing, which provided for a petition to be pre- sented to the Provincial Government demanding that the burden of school taxes be lifted from the already over burdened shoulders of the home- owners in Pickering Township School Area No. 2 and that all costs dealing with education be paid forthwith by the Provincial Government. He suggested that this petition be presented by a delegation consisting of representative s of Pickering Township Council, West Rouge Rate- payers Association, Bay Ridges Ratepayers Association and the West Shore Association, also their solicitor, Mr. Bernard Kott. Mr. King stated that a petition is now being circulated throughout the areas covered by these three ratepayer groups which is to be signed by taxpayers -- this also to be pre- sented to Queens Park. Reeve Laycox in replying to Mr. King stated that his association deserved a hand for its attitude in supporting the council. He stated that they would receive 150% support from council in their petition to the Frovincial Government. Mr. John Kruger, speaking on behalf of the West Rouge Ratepayers Association, to Coun- cil on Monday evening, suggested the Town- ship might be well advised to make a request to the Department of Municipal Affairs per- taining to regional government for the Town- ship of Pickering. `The department is wait- ing for such a request from this Council. especially since the publicity about affairs in Pickering" he suggested. He went on to state that twenty out of thirty - eight municipali- ties are facing problems and are in need of these studies. Within the next two years we will be forced to make far reaching develop- rr ant in fringe areas and legislation will be on a first come first served basis he said. Mr. Kruger attacked a recent editorial in a local newspaper suggesting the Pickering and Ajax should amalgamate. He suggested this would be irrational on the present mill rate. If I were an Ajax ratepayer I would fight it" he said. However. Mr. Kruger suggested that perhaps the Pickering Township Council and Ajax should jointly request a regional study by the Department. He went on to say that one day -Scarborough will split and we will become part of -Scar- borough East, then, he said. Oshawa will spread westward. He then referred to a suggestion by a councillor a few weeks ago that F•ickering Township should form a satellite city. The rural areas to the north would amalga•- m3te with other rural municipalities and the southern area will go together with urba k areas he said. "What we need from Ajax -is their expertees in industrial and what they need from Is some land. With one central government we would have a much larger voice' � he con- cluded. Complains About Rudeness Of Twp. Planning Director Appearing before Council on Monday evening, Mr. Denis Furnis of 904 Liverpool Road ex- plained the manner of his complaint against the Planning Director, Mr. Faulkner. Mr. Fur- nis explained that he had received a letter from the Director of Titles which suggested that he visit the Township Municipal Building to inspect a registered plan in order to con- firm boundaries of his property. Upon going to the offices of the township last Wednesday morning Mr. Furnis was directed to the Pisaning Department. As soon as Mr. Faulkner "appeared on the scene I was ad- dressed with utter disrespect and rudeness, he cook one glance at the letter and threw it back at the table" explained Mr. Furnis. %fr. Fur- nis went on to state that Mr. Faulkner's reply was that "Because someone sends you a letter does not mean I have to do anything about it". "I asked him to telephone the Director of Ti - tales but he said `No' continued %fr. Furnis. "He then said `Watch your language' and those were his exact words, I asked him to explain and he said `You are using blasphemy"'. Mr. Furnis assured Council that at no time did he use blasphemy and to his knowledge he had never met %1r. Faulkner before and could not understand his attitude. "The other people in the township office were most helpful" he said. Mr. Furnis had been accompanied to the office with a Mr. Allison who confirmed what Mr. Furnis had stated in his complaint. 48 hour BILLER and IMRIE REAL ESTATE LTD. all cash offer SAY R� "DM REALTOR �� n942-2561 rim. 0.., rn ir1 , n nn A A Page 2 THE REPORTER Thurs.

The Saturation Point by Donna Macdonald At the present time the homeowner is drowning in a sea of taxes and the water is "six feet high and rising". Of these taxes, the largest . ortion of his municipal tax bW is that which should not appear on his taxbill at all - namely - "education" . Each year this cost has soared and this year's forecast discloses yet another fantastic increase. The retention of acceptable levels of education will, in a continually rising economy, see future educational costs even greater than at present. The time of recognizing that this heavy bur- den should be properly borne by all income producers in our society, is "here and now." This can be most efficiently and equitably accom- plished by taking the educational tax responsibil- ity from the municipality and placing it in the machinery of the Department of National Revenue on a Federal basis. Education in NOT a luxury, ibe cost of which should be borne by the "supposedly" wealthy segment of our society, namely, the property owner. It is a necessary and vital service that must be granted to all of our citizenry, the cost of which should therefore, be provided by all in receipt of income (whether investment or earned). A substantial reduction in costs will result by eliminating unnecessary duplication of hun- dreds of tax - collection municipal bodies throughout Canada, as tax collection can be done more efficiently and economically on a Federal basis through the use of existing tax -collection machinery. Collection of educational tax via income tax assessments, automatically accom- plished the job of spreading the burden among the population. If this were not so, why then is our income tax levied and collected through one central Federal "collection agency", rather than by each municipality? Objections to this proposal, however, will emanate mainly from those officials whose collection powers will be threatened as a result. The homeowner has been taken for a long and costly ride in providing a basic service re- quired by all. Stop -gap measures currently be- ing proposed, focus on turning this educational At Guild Mr. & Mrs. Joseph A.

I say this be- cause although the cost would be reduced on each homeowner, the Province would have to discover another means of raising "lost re- venue". eg. (via sales tax, which of course, would back -fire and hit those persons who could least afford such taxation). We therefore are presented with a "vicious circle" in this re- gard. The increasing tax burden must terminate with- in the very near future or many people will be forced to the "point of no return", and will be forced from their homes. However, the re- sponsibility for initial action rests in the hands of the homeowners. There are several effec- tive methods at your disposal in order to make your grievances or ideas known. A few of these are as follows: (1) Write "letters to the editors" of news- papers. (Both daily and local) (2) Write letters to your elected repre- sentatives. (3) Hold meetings, which would be attended by homeowners as well as your elected repre- sentatives. The ideal time for homeowners to act is NOW at a time when an election seems imminent. After all, elected representatives are your representatives, elected by you to protect your interests and to find workable solutions to your problems.

The 2nd Fairport Sea Scouts and Athabasca Sea Rovers held a training program at the camp of Crooked Creek in Scarborough two ; week - ends ago. Under the guidance of Skip- per Bill Orr, the Rovers practiced camping techniques and performed experiments in "pull- w - ey - line" crossing over obstacles. Stephen Rielly was in charge of Scout training. Al- ✓ though handicapped by bad weather, the Ro- vers and Scouts set up separate camps and remained at the site from Friday to Sunday afternoon. This training was in preparation for the Owasco District Camporee to be held at "Indian Diggings" near the end of May. The Athabasca Sea Rovers took advantage of the Rummage Sale held by the Mothers Auxiliary at the Fairport Church Hall last Saturday. They set up a booth where they sold records and other articles to help raise funds to pay for their newly acquired sail boat. The Rummage Sale was well attended and was very successful. The 2nd Fairport Cubs are also very active. Cub leader Jim Gurr assisted by G. Lawlor led the boys on a nature hike last Sunday in Greenwood Conservation Park. This training helped to prepare the Cubs for the Cuboree to be held there May 13th. Up to 22 cub packs in the Owasco District plan to attend the Cub- oree in competition for points toward the Cub Trophy for `best cubs of the year" . The Red "Six" proved to be the best "Six" of the 2nd Fairport Pack. These boys will be re- warded by a camp - out in Mr. Lawlor's hunt- ing cabin near Peterborough this Sunday. W. 0.

Ban Housing President of the Bay Ridges Ratepayers Association, Mr. Don Kitchen, in addressing council on Monday evening, outlined the resolution made at the recent ratepayers meeting whereby all residential develop- ment in :he township should be banned un- til the desired re- sidential / industrial ratio is achieved. Mr. Kitchen suggested that the Reeve in the past had supported re- sidential development, apartment complexes etc. which had been proven to be a poor stand because of the lack of industrial as- sessment. Mr. Kitchen com- mented that with the way things are at pre- sent in the township there will be many pressure groups ap- pearing before Coun- cil.

West Shore Centennial Project Needs People The West Shore's Association Parks Com- mittee, of which Paul Hrynkiw is Chairman, Is finally seeing signs of being able to start work on the Centennial Plan's major point, the "West Shore Glen". This park will con- si st of a landscaped promenade park, and a child- ren's playground park, together with a natural ravine promenade park, for which formal plans were drawn up by professional landscape archi- tects. Most of the rough grading is done now, and they are proceeding with the fine grading. The bulldozer will mark out the pathways, which have now been staked out, and the first lot of gravel will be laid. Within the next two or three weeks, the majority of the shrubs and trees will be planted, and the ground will all be raked ready for seeding. Work will also begin on the playground park, and after the equip- ment has gone through and done rough clear- ing through the natural ravine promenade park, then it will be necessary to follow along behind with the cleaning up that is necessary, but which Will still allow it to be as close as possible to its natural state. All of this requires Manpower - Womanpower - Childpower. Anyone who can help and who can lonate a few hours of his or her time. We need people to rake, people to dig and plant shrubs, to work on the playground section. The Parks Committee is setup with several different super- visors for the different sections of the park and the different jobs which have to be done. But we must know who! Phone anybody on the executive and let them know what you can do or would like to help with, or phone Paul Hrynkiw at 839-2008. Re- member - this park is yours and will be there for you to enjoy - if we all put our shoulders to the wheel (so -to -speak) and push. The plant- ing must be done and completed before the end of May - the grading and raking can take a little longer. And bring a neighbour to keep you com- pany - don't be the only one at your end of the street to help - they will be willing too. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ............................................. ........: f.

The results of their southern trek - for West Hill, at any rate - is the opening of the West Hill Beauty Salon on Kingston Rd., next to Beckcr's Milk just east of Morn- ingside. In this venture. Mrs. Samples is being ably assisted by her daugh- ter, Susan Samples, who has been a sty- list in The Chique Sal- on in Bay Ridges for over a year. What is life like in Kenora? "Beautiful, " said Mrs. Samples: summer like ours from May to Septem- ber; 30 to 50 below for most of the winter months. "But it is so dry you don't feel it as mach as you would think." Asked if operating a car was possible with this temperature, and how were cars kept mobile, the answer was block heaters. (That is what we "southerners" do!) "The dampness here is almost worse than the cold up there," she emphasized. The Samples moved to West Hill because Mr. Samples, a Dept. of Labour superinten- dant, was moved to this area for his work. "We love it here," she said. They particularly like the shopping plazas, non-existent in the North.

Will Spring Ever Come? It seems as if Spring may be here. The tul- ips which should have been out three to :our weeks ago are just com4ng our. You will find that if they are no: near the house, that the stems are short. Even the For- sythia has not bloomed. The o-dy flo- wering shrub I have seen out so far is Da- phanie. You will find that the growth of yo.Ir Peren- nials is very slow this spring due to the cord. If yoj planted trees, shrubs, vines etc. last fall. they will be a lot slower in showing buds this sprang. It will take till next spring for them to catch up to the other trees & shrubs. It is too late now for the dormant spray as the buds at a shoving & they would o.-dy be burned by the mixture. If you failed to get it on you can spray your trees and shrubs with a liquid systemic when the leaves are out, or If you wish yoJ can ap- ply the systemic crys- tals to the soil around them now. Systemics are the Improve Intersection The improvement to Sheppard Avenue and No. 2 intersection are expected to be com- pleted by August of this year. However, there has been no commit- ment made for traffic lights at this inter- section as yet. A count of traffic will be made after the commuter station in West Rouge has come into opera- tion and installation of lights will depend upon the count.

They stated that the prompt and efficient actions of the firefighters dur- ing a recent fire at their plant was most commendable. rates : in protecting 'your stock against in- sects, for the plant takes them right into the sap stream of the plant. I used the crystals last year on the large exhibition English Mums and found them very successful. The spray that, also con- tains a fungicide is ex- cellent for mi/dew prevention, so I used it on the roses, lilacs, zinnias and begonias. DO Nro T use it on fruits & vegetablesfor we do no: know what the build up would be in our bodies. They are still experime,iting and should be aale to give us an answer in the near future. It may seem a we bit early for they shouldn't be planted till the end of the mo ith, but the glads, dahlias, anemones and begonias are in the Garden Centres now. You should get them early so that you have the best selection. Li- lies are also available. The lily always locks so perfect in the gar- den, and can be planted in the perennial border to add a great deal of grace to it.
