I congratulate you and members of our council tor their concern regarding our beautiful maple trees and sincerely hope that someone can come up with a solution to combat what could wipe out that Canadian emblem 1 have spent a goodly part or this morning looking through hundreds of newspaper clippings taken from our newspapers on Issues that am keenly In terested In I was looking for a clipping taken from The Telegram at time of the flag debate and If I can remember the wording It went like this What a plly It would be If sometime In the future our beautiful maples went the same way as the elm Irees Canada would then wind up with a Canadian flag whose emblem would be extinct At the time since I was strongly opposed to a change for our national flag The thought seemed rather remote Imagine my shock and almost unbelief to read in The Herald last week and again this week In your editorial that we may in- deed lose our lovely maples In my search for the clipping I ime upon another one from The Globe and Mall by Bruce West 1966 It wos headed by these words A downhill path and I quote as follows 111086 who arc worried about creeping republicanism should have started their ab jections when the red ensign was disdainfully tossed away in favour of our sorry looking banner Many did Including the writer of this column But there were apparently not igh Ihe last time we started march loward republicanism The fight I made In this space wasnt carried on merely because I thought my flag was a piece of bunting than the suggested by someone else I fought the adoption this flag which also came sneaking out of the post office In the form of a postage stamp For two very good reasons The most im portant one was that change was one of the first great steps toward creating the republic of Canada The second was that I thought I sensed behind the motivation of the new flag group more con tempt for trie any deep yearning for a new one There were those in this country that would probably have settled for a striped bed- sheet faro flag Just as long as wo got rid of trial red There is much more to that letter but I think the last few ords are more than appropriate now than when It was written In It reads thus someday in Canada we may awaken to this vital fact But by then It may be too late In view of our ever increasing good relations between Russia China and the Communist stoles I wonder If we shall end up just as many other nations like the fly in the spider trap And is it possible that Canada about to lose that very beautiful tree in fulfillment of what seems now have been something like a prophesy As one who stills files the Ontario red ensign not because I worship It nor because I dislike those beautiful maple trees but because 1 remember sacrifice of Flanders Fields At the foot of my flagpole 1 planted some forget me also same poppies In memory of those to wham owe our freedom today I also planted Dahlia bulbs to symbol lie the words Lest Perhaps like many Canadians I Dahlias wilt forget I cannot Many Festivities As Banker Wingrove Retires on Pension Retiring this weekend on as a Canadian ImnoHni of Commerce manager Don Wingrove 15
