A. Forrester RyC. Forrester - Editor an~d Man-ager Not since the nineteentb century bas a representative of the Russian government conferred with the head of the Roman Cgtholic Church. For this reason alone, the history-making meeting in the Vatican recently between Soviet F oreiga Minister Andrei Gromyko and Pope Paul VI is of unusual signif, icance. Such a calI as that paid by Mr. Gromyko on His Holiness would flot have been possible a few years ago. t reflects the growing spirit of ecumenism tbat bas been ev- ident tbiroughout be world, during, and ever since, Vatican CouncilTIL. t also demenstrates two other tbings as weli: Pope Paul's internationalism., which is pointed up by bis'travels a6road, and bis meetings with church and political leaders; and his untiring efforts in the interests of world pence. t is doubtful if anything of great importance was achîeved by the meeting between Mr. Gromyko and, the Pope. The Russians are net suddenly going to turn their backs on Communismn and embrace religion. Nor will the North and South Vietnamese forthwith lay down their arms, and agree to peace negetiatiens. Howeyrer, worid pnc as bound toelbe, discussed, ln- cluding the war in Vi=a, Disarmament, aid to the werd's hungry, and possibly even, religtus freedom was où the agenda. There can be no firm décisions reacbed at such a' meeting. But it might lead te others at which worthwhiie progress for the betterment of mankind may resuit. Involvement Ln thisweek's issue Rev. B. Long's sermon, "'Christ- iitLs Involvement", presenlts a pointwhich is 'ývell taken. The theme is also one wbich applies not only to the church but to ail factions of community living. t is quite true that we are overstuffed and hold our- selves aloof fromn involvement. Those things we deplore are often present because we do stand along the sideline.s and refuse to become involved, Thle reference by Rev. Lo)ng , 'TIlEY', is ~well ,sei ouit and a fact which presents itself consistantly ini our gn eral .daily conversation. Teo ur mmnd comes the fact that we do become critical of the so-called THEY. Tbis criticism, even when warranted, !às only verbal .- . . it does net create involve- ment, time. or sacrifice. Councils are "THEY"; Sehool BCoards are "THEY", as are other factions within the cern- munity. One offen hears criticismi of inadequacy in our pub- ic officiais. But those criticizing, do they take time and, expend effort to encourage more qualified candidates? Do they enter the poils on election day? Do they attend meetings held in the public interest? Do they become a- ware of the conduct of our public business? We are afraid this cannot be answered in the affirmative. bis cannot be answered, la tbe affirmative. people who, through, their involvement, se-t the character and natîre of the community. ASoift Une App'-oachj In connection with recent references made at meet- ings-of the Township Council and also the Orono Trustees, it appears that a soft line npproacb exists in the issuing of building permits and inspecion of construction witbin the municipality. It bas been pointed out that one construction on the Main Street of Orono was completed without a building permit. Reference bas also been made toeotbers. From our information the construction project on the Orono Main Street was neyer questioned fpliowing the commencement of the project. The request for a permit was net granted originally but wben work was undertaken neither was it questioned. One could not say that it was hidden from view or that officials were unaware of the work undertaken. In this one cannot blame the applicant for bis pro- ject was allowed to continue v4 no questions being asked. .In 1965 Council was to take a. bard line in the en- forcement of its building by-law. At that time registered letters we-re sent to some wxbo we1re tenbulinl-tbu VILLAGE ROADS RECEl VING SPRING DRESSING The Orono.

Work on the roads is nearingi completion- with the shouiders be- ing dressed with qrushed gravel and cevered with 'calcium. It is understood that oiling will take place wheni the rends are in condition for such treatment. SETTING 2MURDERS FREE I SAJO CAUSE 0IF RETENTION 1 "I 1f ef imprisonment meant ex- actly that 'nembers of Parliament would be happy to have capital Spunishment removed in Canada," Hlon. George Hlees told a meeting of the Port Hope Progressive Conservative Asociation recently. Mr. Hees said as matters now stand a murderer sentenced to life imprisonment could be set free in as littie as nine years H1e feit life sentences'should bç either for the remainder of the life of an offender or untit there couild be no doubt the crimninal: was comnpleteiy reformed in mind and attitude toward society. 'There are not many people to day, whether in or eut of Parlia- ment, who feel the death penalty should be maintained merely as a form of retaliation, Mr, Hees said. The important thing was to have the means to remove murderers fromi soiety so they could not commit other offences, the speak- er said. The chairmnan of the meeting, Mr. Morris, explainied that: Mr. Hlees is likely to be the Progres- sive candidate for Durham rid- ing in the next federal election as the result of redistribution which wiii add the Town of Co- i bourg and four surrounding town- ships to the present local consti- tuency. The M.P.P. for Durham, Alex Carruthers' gave a brief address as the' meeting got under way. H1e saidon of the major gi-oh- temns of a parliamentary repre- sentative was finding means to communicate effectively with his constituents to keep them proper- ly informed as to what was being done by government. In the present time there seems to bave developed a lack of com-I munication between parliaments and the public at large, Mr. Car- ruthers stated.
