THIRD DAY TODAY County councillors began the third day of the debate today before leaving Whitby to attend Warden J. Sherman y F Scott's an- ual warden's picnic at Ather- of taxes in Whitby. He added when the county "bumped" Whitby's assessment up in 1960, it need take no credit for bring- ing industry into the town. WARDEN CAN'T ENDORSE Warden J. Sherman Scott said Tuesday he could not en- dorse either the assessor's re- ley. "Nisher the Assessment Act, equalization must be complete by June 30. Whitby Township's Deputy- reeve John Dryden said Tues- day it was his opinion the as- sessment committee minority report should be acceptable to the majority of council. Mr. Dryden, in support of his argument claimed if Mr. Hep- ditch was right in pointing out through spot checks the total county assessment is too low, therefore the assessment of each municipality -- low. STABLE According to Mr. Dryden port or the assessment com- mittee's minority report. When the debate opened again Wednesday morning, clause one of the bylaw to equalize the assessment was defeated by a 16-9 vote, the towns and larger, harder - hit townships winning round one. When Mr. Quantrill attempt- ed to substitute the defeated clause, in committee, with the assessor's statutory report, his motion was defeated by a 20-11 majority vote. rise and report there was no-) thing to report Mr. Dryden suggested the or-) iginal clause may have been| acceptable if a correction in the Scott Township equalization) factor had been included. | Mr. Brooks agreed it may} have been, but he pointed out the third reading takes a two- thirds majority of the council/ in order to pass. He suggested Whitby Township shouldn't feel bad because "the chunk taken off Whitby Township's assess- ment in the equalization is 'be-| yond imagination." | Port Perry's Reeve J. J. Gib- son moved the assessor's re- port be accepted with one ex- ception, that Uxbridge Town- ship's assessment levy be reduced by $250,000. He sug- gested that $250,000 be split equally among all municipal- ities, The bylaw was given two readings during the afternoon sitting, and today will come up for a third reading. It is ex- pected the third reading will be another hard fought battle be- fore it goes through -- if it goes through. St. Mark's United Church Women Unit No, 6 met at the home of Mrs. T.

According to Mr. Quantrill, the "handwriting was on the wall in 1960 if any municipality tn the county raised its assess- ment, that assessment was go- {ag to go throughout the entire county.
