old enough to work and if thy tried to get tough about it wed stop them cold wo have enough stones on the broc peninsula to build barricade that would mako tn greet wall of china look like a curbing

council vetoes joining bell rate protest with briw reference to a herald editorial congratulating council for taking no action on the proposed boll telephone rate rise a motion was finally placed on the table by cm hyde and harrison last tuesday to support opposition to it by the canadian federation of mayors and municfc pauties and pay up to 1 cent per capita in legal costs with crs sykes and gunn and deputy reeve gray absent from the meeting a recorded vote was asked and mayor armstrong cast he deciding vote against joining the antibell forces the movers got support from keeve bar gent and were opposed by crs mcgilvray elliott and the mayor the discussion and motion fol lowed reading of a letter from the federation which pointed out its successful opposition last fall to a rate rise and its intention to again cooperatively share costs of fighting the request again we stuck our necks out before and if we dont oppose it this time wefll be admitting we made a mistake said cr hyde notwithstanding the press i think we were right last time said reeve sargent pointing out that the board of transport com missioners had cut down the phone companys original request before it was entirely vetoed by the fed- ml bo ml ftedf before it is allowed v anartrttsjt rttd that bauaneasss mem to bo nan- eral wo shouldnt get mixed up in it again was cr mcgqvrays o- plniost weve read the heralds edi torial and heard the bells aide of the story presented at council recently said the mayor we should have some idea by now whether wc want to oppose it or not cr hyde said the bell company had presented their case well but he thinks they are trying to get everything from one end the government supported us in vetoing a rate rise if theres any danger of the companys op erations being affected by not letting them earn higher rates i dont think the government will veto it again he said tm not saying their case is right or wrong but i think it should be opposed so all the arguments can be heard unless we have a good reason for opposing well be like the irishman who landed in new york and asked if they had a govern ment so he coutd oppose it com mented the mayor no one wants to pay any more money for any thing but are there reasons cr hyde pointed out that the j phone company has a monopoly most private business is ruled by 1 competition and if this isnt pre- too as fax as prioa la conened and nenftoned salt beer bread said steel as some products which seem to- have not much price differential between companies right or wrong 1 cent per capita is cheap to have proper opposition to see if a rate rise is justified said cr hyde reeve sargent said that al though opposed to a rate rise he was also opposed to a motion to oppose it because be feared from comment around the table that it would not pass if we sit quietly we can ac complish our end without fanfare he continued a defeated motion will get wide publicity a 250 grant to esquesing ag ricultural society to assist in op erating the 1958 fair at george town was made after a fair offi cial perc cleave appeared to request the usual grant action on applying for addi fdonal road subsidy on priming and chipping roads in delrex was delayed when cr fred harrison said he would like the engineer to explain the situation before he would favour it a motion had been prepared for this but was not presented
