Clipped Co Comments MUNICIPAL ASSISTANCE The national executive of the Cana- dian Federation of Mayors and Muni- cipalities submitted a detailed briet to Prime Minister Diefenbaker and tho federal cabinet Tuesday. Its main theme was "employment for Canadian plant and manpower in the improve- ment of our towns and cities." As a means of providing jobs and at the same time meeting "the great and Reeve Jos. Dales of North Gwillim- post but the final decision is up to growing back-log of essential commun- ity requirements," the Federation pro- poses a massive program of ¢apifal works, to be done by the municipali- ties with help from senior govern- ments. and recreation facilities; renewal of | and devastating effect .

At the same time, much of the trouble is the result of failure of municipal govern- ments so support sound planning and to co-operate with each other. If the senior governments are now to assist the municipalities, it should be with a clear understanding. that the petty parochialism which has to bring about the evils described in the Federation's brief must come to an, end. 600 WOMEN CRUSADE AGAINST | _ HUNTING IN DISTRICT When the Victoria County Council consider the abolishment of the pri- vilege of hunting on private property in the district (which is on the Wed- nesday agenda) the matter will also be supported by a pettion signed by 600 members of the Women's Insti: tutes of the district.
