Where is the building going to be locat- ed? Who owns the property? What Board member will the Library be named after? Why no public vote on the ques. tion like Council demands the proposed arena must have? Does the Town have a prior. ity list for new projects? Could the Library construction date be put off for another time and more urgent projects dealt with? finally deflated, the voter is so mixed up that he rarely can recall what the original dispute was about. The latest Ajax squirmish that is quickly developing into a political football concerns the proposed new $175,000 library. Like many public feuds, the dispute is brewing because the Council has been dealing with the problem behind closed doors. The public is getting just par- tial answers to questions it is make its "decision" before let ting the people know about the needs of tHe library?" Our position was, and still is, that the people are entitled to know these needs before council takes any action so that the taxpayer can make his or her wish known to Coun- cil before the decision is made. By not allowig the ratepayer to have this information 'is one sure way of starting a political feud. Many ofher questions are still entitled to ask. Recent action taken by the) Library Board has added fuel] WHY $175,000 to smouldering fire. PAT ON BACK The Board, in what can be ~ viewed as a pseudo-charitable| 1, $175,000 1s needed to build action, finally told the voter), why a new library was needed In their open statement, the Board members' appeared busy congratulating themselves| because they were doing their! 'duty', that they neglected to) tell the taxpayer -how the esti-| mated $175,000 cost for the new) library was going to be spent.| The two key paragraphs in the public statement issued by Library Board chairman Mrs.| Mildred Gorman are: | "The Board felt that it would) be doing less than its duty to) Council and to the citizens of} Ajax by remaining silent on ne] needs of the library service." so} lthe Board waited for Council left unanswered. Councillor R. Wright had a good point when he asked Council why the, push for the new library? He also asked the Library? These are good questions that have not been answered by the Council or the Library Board. Library Board chairman Mrs, Gorman's only explanation why to make its decision before re- leasing public information was that they feared a "political snowball". Their action has accomplish- ed just the opposite. We are not disputing the need for a new Library as much as the methods taken by the Coun- cil and the Board to satisfy these needs.

Addressing the 115-year-old institution's spring convocation, he declared that "'the time for mincing words is running out." More than 700 degrees were conferred at the convocation, including honorary degrees given to American historian Mason Wade and Dean Maxi- . distinction between a tradition and a custom. "4 custom is not a tradition," he said. "It is only a certain way of doing things in confor- mity to a-given historical con- text. It is readily subject to change and may even be dropped altogether.
