r rjirar firww an unhappy need pm thoughts of acton i municipal budget ave not the happresi at the moment and we hesitate to make any suggestions of what might be included but we hope some pro vision is made to maintain the town s paved streets the first heavy thaw on friday gave some indication of what may be anticipated one ol the most obvious problems to us was the development of a six foot long hole about four inches deep in the hard lop in front of the free press we have no doubt there will be others appearing as the full effects of tho heavy winter are uncovered drninaqo is obviously one of the mor problems snow and slush that have been allowed to build all winter to above the curbs on thi main street will naturally con tain the witer on th road rathor than allow ing it lo find its way to the storm sewers that are presently well buried with ice the town s other streets where snpw fall has been equally heavy will be in a milar situation and a recurring freezing and thawing on hove disastrous effects on ihe luird top it seems important to us that this hard top be adequately maintained too since there must still be a good number of yearly to pay off the balance of the debentures covlring the installation it will indeed bev an unhappy day if inadequate funds eru budgeted to take care of the necessary maintenance on these roads becyss the town is going to have lo have tnepi for a good many years yel evidence of inadequate maintenance in years gone by is already too plentiful in town when one takes a close look al the arena and the town hall there is little in them to fosler lawn pride a woman pm will canada ever have a woman pnma minister or ihe united states a woman president someday perhaps but not we fancy in th lifetime of anyone now living women show no sign of challenging man s domin ance in the field of politics either in ihis countryorany other here in canada as in ihe united king dom and ihe united states there has never bean more than a mere handful of women legislators at any time this despite the fact that women voters outnumber men as a result no prime minister or president has ever had more thin one womin m his cabinet the reason for this sad state of affairs is quite simply lhat women haviog secured the right lo vole 40 years ago have been content to let it qo at lhat the fears once expressed thai votes for women would result in a political war of the sexes at every election have not been realized in facl women appear less inclined to run the risk of petticoat government than men rarely do they select much less elect a woman over a man politics then is mill pretly much the ma g n has always been women il seems prefer il that way or if limy don i really are nol yel prepired lo do anything aboul it hence male colons will long continue lo rule ihe roosl in ottawa and the provincial capitas too and imn will reach the moon and probably the oilier planets tool lonq before any canadian political party with a chance of power takes the plunge md chooses a member of ihe fair sex as its parliamenlary leader which m some ways is a pily for such i dcvelopmenl wou d certainly bring added spire and nilerfsi to politics the

the most recenttfwearisirrthe fluoridation of n town s water supply no longer can a municipality decide for itself whether it wants lo add the fluorides to the water in an effort to mini mize tooth decay m children the provincial government in a recent policy statement on the subject indicated thai no voles would be acceptable presently eight municipalities adding the fluorides lo the water will be allowed to continue but there is now no legislation that will permil other municipalities to choose the course they may take it is unfortunate that almost every for ward step in health has met obstacles thai are often quite unreasonable from pasteur n to the latest polio varnr ihp scientists have had lo overcome nol only the disease ilself but the opposition lo the solution iris not unusual then that the fluoridation of water supplies has encountered similar ob siacles the proof of its effectiveness will only be decided when all the experts agree on the subecl one way or another thai may be some time away in the meantime municipalities will not be considering the addition of fluorides to the water apparently since there is no ground on which ihey could implement a plan if they did choose one more discussion has been taken from the table of councils from the forum of public opinion and frcm the ballot booth of local municipalities stncf th netent hyoff nl mnltun the unemployed work- 1f frmwl ihur iiwn self- abandoning thinking why do newspapers print conflicting reports a reader queried us recently al though his reference was apparently direcled more to oui larger metropolitan daily friends peihaps anoiher question might serve as a simple answer why don t people agree on every tnmg newspapers are charged wilh presenting information while their editorial comments endeavour to sort out answeis and express opinions the news columns are charged with presenting the ideas the statements and the actions of others the fact that opinions vary on some things is the reason newspapers present conflicting views perhaps mosi important thcugh is the desire so many have to have the answeis provided to the problems rather than the problems news magazines that offer opinions only withcf course the supporting facts are in creasmqly populr they ve diqesied the news and prov dec a conclusion our think ng has been done for us and we willingly accept their conclusion rather than sift the facts to form our own conclusions the declining interest even in municipal affairs has been evident every nominahon and election day for years basically were happy to leave the problems of growing towns high lax rates irate property owners- service exlens ons and the host ot others to someone else let us not abandon completely our th nkmg processes to someone else as we complain that newspapers carry conflicting reports as long as people are thinking and th nkmg d fferent things on the same sub iect there is bound to be the difference of opinion that provides
