"The members af the Board ai Healti wish ta state that they. are in sympathy with Mie. Whyte's endeavours and feel that she is no daubt giving a good home ta the children tatk- en in, but that thiere are laxvs and reasons why the laws have to be enforced. Furthermore, as thc Health Unit is a gavern- mental body in the municipal field, there is nothing that can be done cxcept ta follow the Provincial regulations which pertain ta the variaus subjects. As a public officer, the medi- cal oificer ai bealth is under tic duty ai exercising those powers eccording ta law for the promotion ai public bealth. "The Medical Officen of Health af tiese Counties is dealing witi the problenis created by Mrs. Whyte ini ac- cardance with statutary provi- sions." Mrs. Whyte's Views In commenting on Dr. Hor- ner's statement, Mrs. Whyte said that while sie does not wish ta break regulations, nci- ther does sie wish ta break ber "covenant with God". I made a covenant witi God wien I began taking in child- ren seven years ega and I can- nat break it", she declared. Mrs. Wbyte admitted tiat most of ber children are over three years old but sie said, "We cannat turn tiem away". At present, she is caring for 34 children between six montis and 14 years, ail from braken and underprivileged homes.' To kcep ber home for child- ren operating legally, Mrs. Wiyte said sic wiil incarpor- ae as e charitable institution, with e separate board af dircc- tors. "We bave a lawyer working on" ths naw," Mrs. Wbyte cx- plainedi. "We will be placed in e dificrent categary whcn these plans meterialize, solving the problem for ourselves, and for tic bealth unit." Commenting on Dr. Honner's remarks, Mrs. Whyte noted: "There is no rancour in aur bearts toward the caunties, government, or any ai its off i- cens. We bold no gnudge agains, Dr. Horner, eitier as a persan, or as an aificer ai the depart- ment ai icalti."
