A resolution to this effect was passed at Monday's council meet- ing. Mayor Parish and members of council were all agreed that a joint representative "could not truly represent Ajax interests." Reports of a meeting at But- tonville by representatives of municipalities in the Metro area with the same problem were ven by Mayor William Par- , and Councillor Elwyn Smyth. Councillor Smyth said '"There is no question of vital impor- tance at the moment, but we don't know when such questions will arise.

URBAN-RURAL PROBLEM Last year, the municipalities of Pickering township, Pickering vil- lage and Ajax appointed Grant Messer as the representative of the three municipalities. The town of Ajax now tédkes the position that one man cannot truly represent all three whose interests are widely divergent. They declare that Ajax is an in- dustrial town and from its be- ginning has been built under a fully - controlled plan. Of the other municipalities, one is pre- dominantly rural, and it is the unanimons opinion of the Ajax town council that it is not fair to either municipality to expect any one person to provide the necessary representation for all. Suggests Cats Be Impounded AJAX (Staff) -- A letter from the Medical Officer of Health, Dr. W. E. McBean regarding the danger of cats running at large provoked a discussion at Mon- day's council meeting regarding the of some dog owners who allow dogs to run at large Dr. McBean suggested that the dog control officer might pick up stray cats as well as dogs if suitable pound quarters are avail- able. Councillor Owen Ashley, chair- man of the police committee said the dog officer will have nothing to do with cats. In the discussion it was stated that many residents were letting Mayor Parish urged that the police be notified, and if the dogs can be identified charges can be laid against the owners for a breach of the dog control bylaw. "Charges have been laid under the by-law and the magistrate also takes a dim view of dogs running at large while the threat of rabies is still with us," said Mayor Parish. Wants Road Kept Open dogs out and as many as six had been seen on one street at one time.
