ORONO WEEKLY TIMES Authorized as Second Class mail, post office Department, Ottawa Established in 1938 by R. A. Forrester ROY C. Forrester - Editor and M ý,anager Subscription payable in advance L--,Caflatw . jis u $1A~50 Published eeyThuis3day aààt tu office of publication S1eek Independence Anarticle appearing in the Oshawa Tunes and repintedi in this isu f h imes bears out a simrple comparison bet-ween the Incor- poainof the Police Village of Orono and that of a boy leaving homèe. Aboy or gil becomnes of a certain age when the desire motivateS, themn to run their own affairs uncler their own roof. They seek inde- prelrdence ýand leaý,ve the family circle. This is only a natural occur- ance and it does carry with it responsibilities which the in(lividuaIlý must face. In seeking Incorporation the Village of Orono is doing exactly 4he saine thing as the boy or girl that leaves, homne to make their owni lite in the worid. Orono bas becomie 0f a size and nature that it is -eady to set the pattern of its own future. Gainiing its independence frorn the Township the Village would be able to place eniphasis where th-ey are needed for suc2h a b)uilt-iip area. They would also be able to direct al] the miunicipal tax m noney to those things which are necessary to promnote and ad1vance this Village. At present, under the Police Trustee set-up, a colict 0t f interest is only natural as two governg bodies have varying deg rees 0f control over the Police Village. 'The needs of the Township, as a whole, differ considerably to that of the Police Village - ana this gap is increasingiy wdening. Here one mîight intion the miajor needs 0f the Townshiip as road work, and construc- tion where an aver-age of $M,000.00 is spent each year. Thits amnount in- a two year period would instaîl water in Orono which is the dire need within the Village. Inicoripor-ation wiIl allow the Village to place its emphiasis where needed and we would find that moines now col- Je-cted and spent on road work which represents froin 60 to 70) per- cent of the Township buldget could be used to miore advantage in pro- viding such services as water. This, of course, does not plean that Y-o nifney would bie spent on roatls for this would not bc the case. Oron-o wvould, tihrough the tact that they are a built.up area, nio doubt finld that the cost per miile to imiprove and xaintain roads to the individual ta.xpayer would be less than now exists in the Townshirn ,hp,1 ýP niT oýf roads must be nintained to seir The tact remains that Orono- gi'rl is seeking independence to go) ture.
