Contesting the vacancy left by Reeve John Dryden will John Goodwin and Heber Down, both of whom have previously been on council, and both well known locally. Mr. Goodwin qualified. at the meeting but Mr, Down has yet to do so. Deputy Reeve John Batty's relinquished seat is sought by Gordon Hanna, a serving coun-4 cillor who was chairman of the finance committee, and by Robert White, a newcomer in the arena of municipal politics. They qualified Monday. The three council seats were filled by acclamation. James Brady and Neal Grandy are back as members, and are joined by Gerald Schroor. The three vacant board of education seats --two members have the second year of 'their term to complete --also found three nominees so no election will be needed to fill them if all three qualify.

Bar Action MONTREAL (CP) The Montreal Bar Association was ordered Monday, by Mr .Justice Philippe Pothier of Quebec Su- perior Court, to suspend all pro- ceedings against Claude Wag- ner, former Quebec justice min- ister. In a disciplinary action Nov. 4, the council of the Montreal bar had reprimanded Mr. Wag- ner and fined him $100 for re- marks he made in a speech to a rural bar group while justice minister. The complaint was laid by Judge Jean-Paul Berube of Riv- jere du Loup, who contended that Mr. Wagner had discred- ited him by making remarks about his handling of a court case. In his judgment Monday, Mr. Justite Pothier said it was Mr. Wagner's right and duty as jus- tice minister to seek out, report and even denounce cases in which he felt justice was badly administered. In the case at issue, Mg. Wag- ner, a Liberal who still repre- sents the Montreal riding of Verdun in the legislature, was speaking not as an individual nor as a lawyer, but as justice minister. Mr. Justice Pothier main- tained a petition by Mr. Wagner for a writ of revision challeng- ing the right of the bar asso- ciation to discipline him. This means that on a date to be set, Mr. Wagner's lawyer may challenge the validity of the censure.

Faludi Plan Debate Heated By "CHRISTINE JONES of The Times Staff BROOKLIN (Staff) The hottest talking point in Whitby Township -- the controversial Faludi report recommending amalgamation with the town of/ Whitby -- was the overwhelm- ing issue at the township nomi- nation meeting Monday, There was standing room only in the old town hall at Brooklin, General feeling of the coun- cil members and nominees who spoke seemed to be: it. woul be nice if we could stay as are, but-it just isn't realistic. One nominee, John Goodwin, who is running for reeve, ham- mered the report and the money it cost, and pid the public had not been kept in- formed. He challenged several points and his comments in turn provided challenges from the floor. Retiring Reeve John Dryden, in a 40-minute valedictory speech, summarized the points made in the report and urged his listeners: 'Put aside your sentiment and emotion. and think of the facts with which we are faced," . DEVELOPMENT SEEN He would like "status quo" but thought it impossible. There must be major changes, he said, mentioning the soaring assessment and population of be the-township in recent years. The town of Whitby and the city of Oshawa have both indi- cated interest in the corridor area of the township. "That to them is the plum, because of its potential," he said. The one large business there, the only they had, paid 10 per cent of the taxes, and there were over 3,000 acres of land of prime commercial and industrial po- tential, 'Think of the develop- ment that could help every one of you." Mr. Dryden warned that if there were no negotiations on the subject of amalgamation between the town and township, Whitby or Oshawa could win their annexation case at the municipal board hearing and the township would have no say in the terms or conditions. "It is imperative that there be negotiations. Some people might say let that corridor area 0... if we lose that area we would be left with a-municipal- ity ineffectual and ineffective," he declared. Some people said amalgama- tion with East Whitby should be considered, but where was Oshawa going to expand? It was logical that i t might take Two In Race For Deputy Job SCUGOG -- The township has reached a milestone in its his- tory by qualifying for a Deputy Reeve for the first time. There will be an election Dec. 3 for the position, as two people, Raymond Fralick and Joseph Dowson, qualified to run following Saturday's nomination meeting at Scugog Township Hall. Two other nominees, Milton Demara and Mrs, Grace Love, did not qualify. Mr. Fralick was also nomi- nated for Reeve but failed to qualify, so Victor Aldred was elected by acclamation. 'industry of any consequence): JOHN GOODWIN e « « Hammers Report in East Whitby, and Whitby Township would either become part of Oshawa or have to accept another change of boun- dary. Sooner or later Whitby Town- ship would have to change, con- tinued Mr. Dryden. He thought they would be fortunate if taxes increased less than 10 per cent next year. The corridor area was a help here but they were unlikely to get future growth there unless servicing was con- sidered. For the balance of the township, .annexation by either Oshawa or Whitby left too small an area t economi- cally: practical. POLICE QOSTS He gave the report's conclu- sion about amalgamation, in- cluding their assumption that the township was paying police costs, about 7% mills. They were not, but the consultants thought this imminent. Mr. Dryden said he hac visit- ed the new municipalities of Oakville and Burlington, where amalgamations had taken place, and concluded from talk- ing to ordinary residents that things were working out well. "I believe the Faludi report must be the basis for further negotiations with the town of Whitby. Above all I believe from now on you, the people, should be kept informed to the best ability so you will know what is happening." Mr. Dryden then said: "I have not enjoyed the political atmosphere and I wad rater sleep at nights than worry about your problems." . UNBOUNDED OPTIMISM In his years in municipal affairs he had given 'faithful and* conscientious service," he felt, and his only regret was that the amalgamation talks were half-finished. He did not like to see a. job half-done, but had "unbounded optimism" in the future of the municipality. Councillor Gordon Hanna thought amalgamation was superior to annexation in any form. He felt their choice now was either to agree on negotia- tions or have a solutjon forced on them. s Councillor Neal Grandy tol the meeting he would prefer that the township stay.as it was but it was obvious change must come. He opposed any form of annexation and favored con- tinued discussion with the town of Whitby on the basis of the amalgemation recommen- dations made by the consul- tants. Next to give his views was John Goodwin. He lashed out: should turn for advice, jf not to experts, Mr. Goodwin said he did not think the time was 7H OSHAWA TIMES, 'Tuesday, November 2, 1966 5 .

I think we should ap- proach this type of thing with a little commonsense, and should do it a lot cheaper than spending 15 grand on a report." FEET WERE CUT He said the new council might have different ideas but them along. "I'm not saying I'ma status quo man --I'm saying we have not sufficient information yet." OSHAWA READY ; Several residents asked whether public meetings would be held before the issue was settled. Gordon Hanna and James Brady both assured the meeting that this would be done. 4 Councillor Brady said the re- port's claim that they would save money by amalgamation was not fact. It might be if they paid police protection but they didn't, "I do not like the way viveng are disguised in the re- ort." Mr. Goodwin said, in reply to questions, that he did not think Oshawa was in a position to digest annexation, irregardless of what the Mayor said, and that their feet had been cut from under them. Annexation should not be a political issue. He was not totally opposed to amalgamation but if elected would find out about the doubts in his mind, and would ask council to hold. public meetings so that residents could help de- cide the right course. His rival for the reeveship, Heber Down, said: 'Personally I would: rather we stay as we are, but, if we cannot, I think we should go along with Whitby and make the best. direction we can." Robert White, candidate for deputy reeve, reserved his opinion until he could read the whole report. "But I agree we go as a township or not at all." that every citizen was entitled to representation at the munici- pal board hearing. "I do not think the council should go off and make this decision."
