For Two BOWMANVILLE (Staff) -- Town council Monday night ap- proved the Durham District High School Board proposal for two new schools, a 500-pupil school to be built in Darlington township, and a 150 pupil school to be built in Millbrook. Approval was given for the is- sue of debentures in the amount of $700,000 for the Darlington school and $150,000 for the Mill- brook school. It approved a sec- ond proposal bv the school board, to authorize the board to engage Approves Plan Schools architects to purchase sites for the two new schools. Clerk R. B. Reynolds explained the board's proposal of a 500 pupil school in Darlington, as a plan open for expansion. The smaller school was recommended due to the all-time high interest rate on debentures. Mayor W. D. Carruthers said he was pleased to see it was a unanimous decision by the board to go ahead with its building plans.

Before he succeeded Sir An- thony Eden as Jie minister Jan. 10, 1957, acmillan was often called the enigma of Brit- ish politics, Hig first year of office was un< happy. One paper tagged him the least-liked prime minister since Neville Chamberlain. Gradually, the image changed. Macmillan refused to become rat- tled.

"I have held all the great offices of state, and being prime minister is not going to change me." He realized that Suez had been a development of enormous im- portance.

AT BOWMANVILLE BOWMANVILLE (Staff) -- Bowmanville town council Mon- day dealt with 2 letter from the Bowmanville Ratepayers' Asso- ciation which asked if it was the intention of council to continue the one mill grant for the Indus- Commission, despite the year-to-year increase in the value of the mill, In 1959, one mill pro- duces $7283 in tax revenue, it was stated. Reeve W. D. Higgon, chairman of the Industrial Commission, re- plying for council sald the Rate- payers' Association had asked a question that no il can an- ment by former Mayor Little that 'Council should be asked why it made a grant to the industrial commission in the first place."

The report concluded with exe tracts from Tie Oshawa Times Sept. 28 which stressed that a progressive com- munity must have a strong dustrial commission; that quick that the town provide suitable of- should fice accommodation, "Not once during the years 1955-6-7, while still a member of il, did he opp the allo- swer, It is beyond the powers of 'any council to commit its suc. cessors, and he suggested that the question be resubmitted to the 1960 council in January. Reeve Higgon said "I hope that future councils will not only con- tinue to budget one mill, but that they will seek ways and means of further help, so that the industrial commission will be able to compete more success fully for new industries, and help the industries we already have. "The annual per capita cost of our industrial program is only one dollar, and I can think of no- thing else that costs us so little, and holds so great a prom- ise of ultimate reward." R of "irresponsible and in. ed public and questions during recent months", Reeve Higgon then pre- {sented a detailed report review- ing the industrial development program, and the growth and economic status of Bowmanville in relation to nearby communities and the province as a whole. He stated that a copy of the report would be given the Rate- payer's Association for leisurely study by its members, and that other interested citizens may see a copy at any time by calling at the office of the industrial com- mission, 1d, ts GHTS Highlights of the report state: "It is far from our intention to suggest that there should not be public debate of important issues, and an active interest in the many policies and problems that concern the town's present and probable future status. cation of one mill for the use ofl the commission.

This is higher than On-the-spot claims settlement with the one, and only slightly lower than three other nearby towns of com- parable size, This demonstrates that the town's commercial and industrial activity is at a satis- factory level and is a tribute to the worth of the commercial and industrial establishment the town already possesses. "Those who consider Bowman- ville taxes to be high will be heartened to know that on a per capita basis they are average. Two nearby towns have a lower rate, but two are substantially higher. "Bowmanville's per capita debt ($127.03 in 1968) ranges from 29 per cent to 162 per cent lower than any neighboring town. While this low figure may have its fa- vorable aspects, it raises the question: "Is it not low only be- cause year after year we have put off various capital projects which might better have been un- dertaken when interest rates were lower, and labor and mater- ial costs much less than they are today, Projects which, if under- taken 10 years ago, would now be half paid for?" "If Bowmanville in 1958 had as- sumed a per capita debt at the average of the four nearby towns, a debt which it is fully capable of carrying, it would have spent an additional $750,000.
