MACPHERSON PHONE 703 WHITBY AND DISTRICT NEWS EDITOR ROBERT CORBETT PHONE 703 County To Have Juvenile And Family Court Establishment and operation of a County of Ontario Juvenile and Family Court was approved by county council yesterday and a recommendation sent on to the 1949 council that $5,000 be provided next year for this purpose. Council also recommended that when a committee is set up to handle court matters, that representatives from the Children's Aid iety included. Boclety ve No member of council opposed the plan though several question- ed phases of it. "The saving in human values will be far more than the money spent on operation," said W. E. Noble of East Whitby proposing acceptance of the idea. D. B. McIntyre qusstioned how the money would be open but was assured that she entire $5,000 might not be required. Mr. McIntyre said he was unable to see what advan- tages the Family court had over the present system of dealing with the cases in magistrate's court. Mr. No- ble assured him that in juvenile cases a much more adequate pro- bation system would be in opera- tion and that the largest part of the expenditure would be for the fol- lowing work. The whole atmosphere of the court is one of helpfulness rather than punishment. The child 'Y ° " President clothes rather than ky police.

P. Girls From Germany Discuss Problems At Ajax Assessor Comments On Recommendations In Independent Report What started out to be a '"knock-down-and-drag-'em- out" county council session discussion on assessment, fizzled out yesterday with everyone agreeing to turn over a new leaf and attempt a little sensible co-operation on their problems. Reeve Thomas Harding of Reach, chairman of the large committee on assessment, made continuous allegations that the system of Ontario County assessment was in a woeful state and that council should set out a policy of assessment adjustments for its assessor, Ralph Wilson. Harding is trying to hold a club | over the assessor's head with all*his tlk of wower to hire and fire, and the like," said Reeve Andrew Muir of Whitby. Vincent Beaton of Brock: "I ob- ject to Mr. Muir's phrasing but we intend to direct the work of the as- sessor and as long as I'm here I in- tend to do so." (All this dicussion was relative to the report of the/provincial board of assessors whick had checked Mr. Wilson's work and found that he is doing a good job. The report was publisned in full on page 5 of this paper Wednesday.) At the end of a lengthy discus- sion, council approved the follow- ing resolution proposed by Reeve W.

The vote in favor of the new body was unanimous. President of the Sports Council for the next two years will be Don Gaine, who has been the head of the Minor Athletic Association dur- ing 1948. He will be assisted by an electric hot water heater, many extras: | executive composed of Gordon M. { McMahon, Whitby Recreational Di- rector; Don Wilson, Harold Boys and Gordon Hawes. One of the major the financial control of teams in all sports. Each group in future, either team or league, will be controlled by its officers rather than through the now-defunct Minor Athletic Association. "This will not only lead to great- er economy," said Mr. Gaine, "but will greatly lessen the load being carried by the executive members. There have been too few people doing too much of the work, and occasional complaints about finan- ces. This way each team er league will control its own funds, and know just exactly where the money goes." It was explained that the plan would call for a levy. of 25 per cent or less on the net profits of teams which ended the: year with a sur- plus, in order to finance the activi- ties of other less fortunate teams. This money would be distributed at the discretion of the executive of the Sports Council. The new Council will be in charge of all sports activities in Whitby, including basketball, softball and possibly tennis, as well as baseball and hockey. Older and more experi- enced players would be made avail- able as coaches for the teams of younger players. As one of the members of the Council said, the purpose of the new organization is "a .matter of making the individual teams gelf- supporting or independent." It is designed to give each team closer control of its own affairs, particu- larly financial difficulties. At a meeting of the executive of the Sports Council, following the regular meeting, conveners for junior and intermediate baseball were appointed. They are to be Jack MacDonald and Wm. "Bill" Hurley, respectively. Before giving over their offices to the executive members of the new group, the President, Sécretary and Treasurer of the Whitby Minor Sports Assoflation gave their re- ports on the activity of 1948. Treasurer Forbes McEwen pre- sented the Association with the "bad news" when he revealed that the operations of the group in 1948 had occasioned a deficit of over $260 on the year's. activities. The 1048 had started with a credit balance of $301.19, and the year had ended with only $36.41 in the bank, al- though there were some accounts outstanding. Principal cause of the loss was expenses incurred in hockey, The reMiring treasurer warned that a 'more efficient sys- tem of controlling expehditure must be devised in order to remain "in the black."

The Provincial representatives found the County Assessor's and all the municipal assessors' records in excellent condition with the excep- tion of Scugog Township. The breakdown of the land on many sheets in 'Scugog were not complet- ed and it was also found that some of the building measurements were incorrect. This is a condition that must be rectified. The building values are agreed with, but the allowances for ob- solescence made upon buildings are quetsioned. A question is asked as to the relative allowance for the | Town of Uxbridge and the Village of Port Perry. It was supposed that they received different allowances and when it was explained that they both received the same. the question was settled. The allowance for Beaverton was also queried, it being felt that Beaverton being a summer town only, should receive more than the 20% allowed. Your County Assessor cannot agree with this thought. Beaverton is a sum- mer town in that it is located on Lake Simcoe and receives mucin summer or tourist trade, but it is also a good yearly town, as can most readily be observed: by ihe amount of business being carried on during the seasons other than the summer season. Cannington would welcome additional summer irade but being off the beaten track it does not enjoy the extra benefits of summer trade. Cannington, becauss it is not a summer town, cannot be asked to assume an extra burden in assessment, It is said that Beaver« ton is not an industrial centre, but is this fact detrimental? We have no true industrial centres in ihe County other than in one separated municipality.
