Leiter To The Editor Oalkville-Trafalgar Memorial Community Centre Arena Association, Inc. Oakville, Ontario, March 14th, 1851. S. Casey Wood, Esq, Oakville-Trafalgar Journal, Dear Casey, I have not written to you before this to thank you on behalf of the Oak ville-Trafalgar Community Centre Arena for all that you and the: staff of the Oakyille-Trafal- gar Journal have done in assist- ing us with news, editorials and special articles. All of us who worked on the fund raising cain- paign were very conscious of the assistance of the Journal. Again, when the arena began to be used, we very much appreciated your continued support, and your ex- cellent reports on our programme and activities. Our publicity committee had planned to thank you publicly when the arena and community hall was officially opened. It now appears that it will be impossible to hold an official opening until we start up again in the fall. In the mean- time, I felt that I should thank you, personally and on behalf of the Board of Directors, and in- deed, on behalf of all Oakville citizens who are interested in our project, for all that you have done to assist us in getting our new building and a winter pro- gramme for our citizens both young and old. Yours sincerely, John A. M. Bell TRUCKS HELP COMMUNITY CONCERT ASSN PLANS SERIES At the meeting of the Board of Directors of the Oakville Com- munity Concert Association this week, Mr. M. F.

HERE'S HEALTH CUT COSTS | | "The living expenses of the man in the street would be very much higher today if it were not for the efficiency of the trucking industry," John Magee, Oakville, executive secretary of the Canad: lan Automotive Transportation Association, stated in a talk to Oakville Rotarians Monday eve- ning. The speaker dealt with the re- cent investigation of the Canad- fan trucking industry by a royal commission, and declared that the results. of the probe had complet- ely vindicated the industry. It had been charged by the railway interests that trucking concerns were not obliged to maintain a service if they did not wish to do so, whereas the railways were. "Here in Ontario nothing short of an act of God will stop a truck operator from getting through to his destination," sald Mr. Magee, in answer to this charge. The trucking industry, was paying its. share of the up- keep of the highways, despite charges to the contrary. Mr. Magee expressed strong op- position to the proposal to. place the trucking industry under fed- eral control. "The freedom of the Canadian trucking industry to serve the country would be grave- ly threatened by federal control," he declared. "The railways regard federal control as the first step towards the strangulation of our industry. The trucking industry prefer the protective barriers of control by the ten provinces. We will fight with every resource at our command to keep provincial controls over the trucking indus- try. We are going to arouse pub lic industry to the. dangers of federal control."
