"higher education" has got something, ll]et you in on a little secret -most of the past presidents of ail our banks neyer set foot in a collegiate-they learned it the hard way. Harry Trew. March 3, 1966 The Editor, The Evening Guide, Port Hope, Ontario Dear Sir: I have notcd with con- cern the 10 mili rise in store for Port Hope ir. 1966. This very serious situation can- not be blamed on the Muni- cipal Counicil, nor on the School Board. The t r o u b 1 e obviously stems back to two sources, firstiy the formation of the District Board, and second- ly to the standards set. by the Dept. of Education. I have always favoured plan- ning, and cannot quarrel with the large land area re- quired to qualifv for a grant. Land cost is a small item in the overali picture. A large contractor once told me, at the time the Dr. Powers addition was being constructed. that ntri had adopted a policy of grandeur that contracters ioved, but that the people of Ontario could flot afford! He advocated utility type school buildings that could offer the same opportunity, but would lack the "frilis".' How right he was. The miii risc wi]l do more to hurt Port Hope than many people realize. In- dustry will avoid locating in town, thus we will miss the aid of additional in- dustrial assessment. The municipal tax increase will add further hardship to peopie contemplating pur- chase of a home, increasing the tax portion of their pay- ments by 10 per cent per month. The genuine pinch, how- ever, is felt by older people, living on pension. Many are barely holding on to their homes NOW, with the huge increase in cost of living, and this tax increase rnay well speil the end of their ability to continue as home- owners. We have a definite re- sponsibility to them. What is the answer? 1. Can we, by a united effort, get the District Area split up? Durham County carnies a heavy load for Darlington Township, where many of the families earn their living in General Mot ors. We shouldn't be made to subsidize this in- dustrial giant. 2. Can we persuade the Dept. of Education to ailow the cutting of borderline benefits in our schoois, such as the teaching of golf, bad- minton, orchestras, etc. A good saiary level must be maintained, to ensure a high qual]ty of instruction, in the basic fundamentals. 3. Property owners are carrying most of the cost, through taxes. Tenants are paying a minority propor- tion through rents. Some new form of taxation to raise money from other than property owners would ap- pear equitable, if feasible. If some solution can NOT be found, Jet us prepare for government subsidized hous- ing, similar to the St. Peter's project in Cobourg, for older people who are being forced out of their homes by our wasteful economy. Let us also face- the cruel fact that Port Hope is destined to re- main a satellite town for Che Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, Mar. 23, 1986 l munities where realty taxes are net prohibitive! We, will then be in a more serious position, wvhere we must provide more schools, hospital space, etc., for the children of absentee work- ers. Sincerely yours, H. K. Long.

Dean Johnny, It is with extreme pleasure that I ieport a smail event which makes me proud of our younger genenation. One often picks up his paper and reads about youngsters who are des- cr.ibed as littie "punks," by our so cailed better people. Perhaps we should remind them that thene are also a number of "punks" among our older people, but because of evasion and ele- vation, they are flot as easy to identify. Shouid we judge people and situations so freely? While uptown last Sunday after- noon, I had the misfortune to get a fiat tire. So, I immediately phoned the service station, only to find it closed. March 14, 1966. Toronto, Ont. Edilor of the Statesmaii, Bôwmanville, Ontario. Dear Sir: I noticed your recent edi- tonial on Honesty. I also Inotice that your newspaper Wilson 's That same lively sparkte and special Wilson's flavour you enjoy in boules cornes in cans 100. And cans are so handy and convenient. Easy to paçk and çarry for the cottage, picnics, camping -taKp less space in coolers. But remember-it's what's in the can that really counts, so make sure the name is Wilson's when you shop. When I returned to my car, a young man, (I won't mention his name because I know he wouldn't wish it) offered to change the tire. Since I was dressed up, I gratefully accepted. He said ho belonged to an auto club that endeàv- ored to aid people with car trouble. Although I was surprised, I wasn't ovenwhelmed, because I have always had respect for young people. Is this not evidence that the younger generation is not going "to pot" as many *people are so neady to believe? And, this isn't the f irst time that I have experienced and received unexpected help from themn. Many thanks to this young man who so gen- erously contnibuted his timne to help out an older person! Sincerely, Clifford C. Purdy. frequently publicizes and congratulates citizens for acquiring sums of money for virtually nothing. Howv honest is it for mein- bers of organizations pur- porting to exist for service or for cultural pursuits to profit personally in the way illustrated by the enclosed clippings from your news- paper? Perhaps these smiling- faced gentlemen turned back their gains to the organiza- tion? Or repcrted themn on their income tax forns? Yours truly, M. Farr. :32 Wellington St., Bowmanville. Ont., March l8th To The Editor Sir: So, stealing $38,000 is not a punishable crime here if (1) you spend it ail înstead of "'stashing it away" and (2) you steal it from a whole lot of people and flot just one little old lady. Surely this is a new concept of justice! Or is there a third reason? Mary Dawson. LETTERS TO EDITOR PORT HOPE GUIDE> Port Hope, Ontario, March 3, 1966 The Editor, The Evening Guide Dear Sir: Your editorial on the plight of the taxpayer in re- * i. latioriship ta the mounting cost of our education sys- temi was well written and te the point, but the painful part of it is that we have already reached the point of '1no return," se if you think an increase of ten milîs is somnething in our taxes, stick around a while. You haven't seen anything yet. Somewhere along the lino we have fallen into a huge trap, under the guise of "higher education", and that word education is about the most misused word in the diction ary. If you don't think so listen to the professor down east of here a few miles, who is advocating pool rooms and smoking lounges for the students, and the way the world is thînking today, theyýý*l probably get them. We have a very lopsided idea of what embraces edu- cation and the sad part of it is that money doesn't mean a damn thing - all you have te do is pluck it off a few cherry trees - the ever blooming kind. The whole key to the problem is that we're just a generation of conformers. But there may corne a day. I mn a g i n e practîcally the whole bulk of our taxes are going into expenditures of the uncontrollable kind and we haven't enough money to feed a few ducks and have to cut down on a few dollars for fuel te keep within the budget - and where does the money go? Why, you'd neyer guess in a thousand years. There's one thing about feeding the ducks - at least you'd know where it was going. And in case you. Ui" thLis mi.
