"No policeman in the form of department of municipal affairs can police 1,000 municipalities . . . I doubt that any attempt at such should ever be made," Mr. Frost said. "I think, however, that rea-| sonable, workable rules can be| laid down which allow the peo-| ple themselves to pass a judg-| ment," he added. | DEFEAT RESOLUTIONS { Earlier, delegates voted 75 to] 70 defeat three resolutions call- ing for exemption from the pro- vincial three-per - cent retail sales tax on all municipal pur- chases. A resolutions committee, headed by mayor Garnet New: kirk of Chatham, said it opposed the resolutions because the tax effective Sept. 1, was being lev- ied to raise needed funds fiat would be returned to municipal- ities in general grants. Mayor Leo Del Villano of Timmins, arguing for the reso- lutions, said if municipalities paid the sales tax on purchases it would mean the mill rate would have to be increased, placing a heavier burden on property owners. The resolutions--sponsored by the city of Niagara Falls, Wei- land County and Thorold Town- ship, and supported by 10 other municipalities -- called for ex- emptions on all municipal pur- ' Homicide Charge 'For Two Youths NEW YORK (AP)--Police ar- rested two youths Tuesday and charged them with homicide in the death of a bystander who was injured fatally by a brick thrown from a rooftop at two would have any effect on whether people would build them. WANT INDUCEMENT However, delegates carried a motion that the committee should draft a resolution ap- proving in principle the need for some inducements for the con-| ® struction of shelters. This will be presented to the Ontario gov-| ernment this fall. A resolution was passed call- ing for the Ontario government to launch a study directed tow- ards reorganization of counties with a view to creating a new form of regional government. Catholics Back Right To Organize OTTAWA (CP)--The Canadian Catholic Conference said Tues- day that society in Canada has not fully accepted the idea that workers have a right to unite in unions "Too many workers, rural and urban, still do not belong to or- ganizations of their own," said the conference, a voluntary as- sociation of Roman Catholic bishops in Canada, in a Labor Day message. The statement said that the direct action of unions is slowed by the fact that not all workers are in unions, which prevents unions from "playing the role which belongs to them, that of helping to solve the many com- plex problems of our economic society." The statement also noted that the need to establish just eco- nomic and social policies de- mands an "ever-increasing in- tervention on the part of public authority." S today.

By then, Canada should know whether or not to press for the conference of Commonwealth prime ministers that has been repeatedly suggested by Prime Minister Diefenbaker. The United Kingdom has quietly told its Commonwealth This information, it was learned in Ottawa, will be set Commonwealth government of- ficials--but not cabinet minis: ters.

CANADIAN CONCERN | Canada's concern over the ful ture of her British market for | farm products is shared by Aus- tralia and New Zealand. But Canada has a larger stake tuan those countries in the fu- ture of the British market for manufactured goods. Sales of Canadian manufactured goods there expanded greatly year, and this is regarded as a promising growth market. Tt is pointed out in Ottawa that Britain's proposals for ne- gotiating entry to the Common Market may not be entirely ac- ceptable to the powerful Euro- pean trade bloc. The U.K. has set out the prin- ciples it wil! follow in seeking to protect not only Common- wealth trade interests but also the British agricultural industry and its partners in the seven- member European Free Trade Association. Whether it' can get these ac- cepted will depend, in large measure, on the strength of the Sale To China Details Today OTTAWA (CP) -- Agriculture Minister Hamilton will an- nounce details today of a new sale of Canadian wheat to Com- munist China, informed sources says the announcement ex- pected at 4:30 p.m. EDT.
