PHONE Set and Clan MjiI Registered Number SECTION A THE HERALD Wednesday June 1934 An equal answer A decision by the provincial government to put Roman Catholic Schools on an equal financial footing with their public school counterparts should be seen as a positive and upward step Catholic parents may now breathe a sigh of relief Separate School ratepayers pay twice for education under the current system It will now be affordable to send their children to high school and allow them to use their savings for post grade 13 training As important as the financial issue is the matter of principle Its a question of equality Undoubtedly there will be problems to face in the future where both public schools and separate schools will have to make adjustments However by putting the two school systems on a equal basis there will be a healthy competition that is fair and open Many Catholic parents will want their Roman Catholic high schools to remain strong education in stitutions with unique features This can be achieved with their continued support and their willingness to accept new challenges It will take patience and a willingness to work together in a spirit of cooperation to accomplish the Iran sition Only those who object to equality will oppose the decision made by Mr Davis Garbage restraint We re hearing it everywhere This is a time of restraint And now
