19th 1961 editorial comment onthly taxes good idea mayor hyde s suggestion that municipal be paid monthly instead of the pre- t three times a year has much to recom- nd it as the mayor said in proposing this fitly it would be a two way advan to the town treasury which must f on heavy bank borrowings until mid r when instalments first stait to come and to the individual taxpayer who find it easier to budget for monthly ents than to find a larger sum of y a couple of times a year jne public servants each year when we attend t a sating of the fire department we are by the fine public service given by men on whom we depend tor protec- nof life and property whenever fire and as pointe out by a speaker at ting this vojonteer group is provi i service for atown of 10 000 just as itly as they did for a community a arter the size -i- and on the same basis only token payment fortheir services we would imagthe that less frequent tax payments originated in the days when ontario was largely rural and particularly in the mixed farming districts today mon thly payments would still not meet with toomuch favour but id a town where a majority of men are being payd weekly sal anes mortey which must be paid in taxes would be better allocated each month avoiding temptation to pend the mo ey on something else and postpone the day of reckoning wh ch mus ome we or plan and hope to

driving a oar while unpaired i cannot see why leaving the scene of an accident on vater should be any more acceptable than failing to remain after a oar accident it seems just as evil and reprehensible to leava a man to drown as it is to leave trim to bleed to death by the roadside last july 12th in red deer lakean 18 year old was drownecraifer his email punt was smashed into by a 15 ft j boat with a 35 hp motor tbe boat driver returned fo shore i diately after the smash and apparently made no effort to save the youth from drowning r appears that he was not only guhttr of handling hjs boat m a reckless and irresponsible manner but also that he left the scene without attempting to save the life that his recklessness had endangered furthermore doubts wera raised regarding bis sobriety it is not idle boast town has a tire depar for o say thd george- cnl second to none canadian of the interior tack ting the elements on hit own term late found guilty on january 12th he was tried and found guilty on a cifarge of criminal negligence the jury for reasons riot evr- dent in a report of the trial recommended leniency and t justice g t walsh an nounced a sentence of sixty days in the district jail at first sight this s a cr i imn all j inadequate sentence for negligence which results in loss of life however there u more involved in the case than that on the one hand this man could be the tjpe who will feel this life on his conscience and who has alreadj suffered and will continue to suffer be cause of it it max be that this was one mad episode in the life of a man whose character eisentialu humane and con siderute on the other hand he ma be a complete moron lack ing m human responsibilities ami awareness he ma he without remorse for the terrible ihmg which he did evtn without realization or sense of guilt if the latter is ihe hill hrsl tne caw the sentence is futile and dam i because u neither punishes nor mi i see restrains i yes its news we went quite

not benefit anjone not the bojs parents or his rela- ue5 thrs stems rather a pec uliar argument for a legal man to put forward 1 cannot see that anjone eer benefits from anj sentence imposed for a crime the sentence for murder aoes not put life into the vic tim the punishment for assault is of no benefit to the assault ed the rape of a virgin child does not restore her virginity the prison term imposed on a thief js of no benefit to anjone whatever the punishment as- ced for a crime is meant to bt retributie and deterrent not tngiful and vindictive such a fathcadtd argument put i forward b a member of the to loga profession makes one fear our for the sumval of justice a plea for a light sentence could rn made for any crfminal on these illogical grounds if followed through to its illogical
