One-Room School On Its Way Out COBOURG --- Russell Rowe, member of the Legislature for Northumberland, told Counties Council this week, that urban and rural school boards are re- quired to join larger area boards and that the one-rodém school will be eliminated. The Private Bills Committee decided this year that small school boards as at Hastings must join with the township area. He said that the five urban school board areas in United Counties will become four. The; 56 urban boards will be reduced to nine. ELECT TRUSTEES Another change is that the trustees can be elected from all the ratepayers in the larger area, and that five will be elect- ed to the new boards. The schock inspector may become secre- tary for them, but will not have a vote.in matters affecting that! area, The government of On- tario is 'desirous of forming larger areas and will work to this end. This change will take vy Meee at the end of the year. a one, ' bo Renny pos tr legislation, mu it affecting local schools. For Geeuace. a pupil may attend from the township school, then he may go to the urban school and the school board from the place where he lives will atuo- matically pay costs. Mr. Rowe told council of an act which will give trustees the right to sell property if the school cannot make use of it. Grants that were formerly de- nied when a rural or an urban schoo! closed, will be paid. Payment for trustees is also legal. | INCREASED GRANT Mr. Rowe said, 'Although education costs are going to be up this year, the extra cost will not apply to the taxpayer be- cause of the increased govern- ment grant." Alex Carruthers, member of the Legislature for Durham, said the new pension plan for {municipalities is open to any municipal employee who is de- sirious of contributing five and a half per cent of his wages.

The headline was inaccurate, as the news story itself made clear. The three men and one woman involved were not "held," but were summonsed. There was no charge or inti- mation of fraud, The news re- port stated that the charge was "conducting a lottery in con- nection with a chain-letter type of merchandising scheme. a No names were given in the Toronto report published by The Oshawa Times, but The Times wishes to apologize to the individuals concerned and 1 i ish ~postal clogged by a slowdown, to a halt at midnight Saturday night. leaders of Britain's post office workers tonight rejected last- minute government wage pro- posals to avert a British postal strike set for midnight Satur- day night.

The Negro leaders, said to represent 52 Negro organiza- tions, met in Harlem Wednes- day night. Mayor Wagner, in saying there was "some evidence" of Communist involvement, de- clined further comment. But he said the FBI had supplied infor- mation "'of the greatest inter- est." Earlier, Acting Mayor Paul R. Screvane said the disorders were incited in party "'by fringe groups, including the Commu- nist party." NEGROES DISAGREE Roy Wilkins, head of the Na- tional Association for the Ad- vancement of Colored People, said that "raising the Commu- nist cry won't solve very much at this time." Rev. Richard A. Hildebrand, president of the city branch of the NAACP, said Communists may have come in after the riots started, "but the outbreak was spontaneous." He said the real causes of re- sentment were the need for better schools, housing and em- ployment opportunities. Constance Baker Motley, The committee was to d whether there was "a possibil- ty of change" in the British government position on the un- ion's salary demands.
