research have a responsibility to probe deep into the problem mr cranston snd the extent of indirect taxation and of passnlotig grants which has characterized all levels of govern ment in recent years has destroy ed in no small degree the clear buyerseller rclatlonjfiip which al one time marked the provision of public services to- the electorate now it is most difficult to isolate costs of

find spurred ex cavations in the north end of the city as a small group of archaeolo gists continue their search for a page of early canadian history the indian grave and ils dozens of symbolictlecoratitins are the most significant finds to date the hisv toiians belief that the french had fortified the site was heightened uy discovery of part of a stone wall several cannon halls and pieces of venetian glass bottles mr harper says it is possible that the indian may have been burled originally on the north shore of new brunswick and moved here during one of the frtquent migra tions to the mouth of the st john river more than 200 multicolored glass beads five woodenhandled knives an ornate pipe carved from bone an intricate copper chain and a small roll of copper wire were found in the grave mr harper says the gravesite was part of an indian encampment which must have been near n french settlement because of a dag ger shot mould and havis found near the body the area whore
