Negotiations with Schools' Non-Teaching Employees Broken Off by Guidelines Northumberland-Nèwcistle Bd. pf Education non-teaching employees are probably the first public employees to be hit with federal wage controls. After four days of negotia- tions, the CUPE and its local 1206, representing 160 custo- dians, maintenance, cafeteria help and school bus drivers, were summarily faced with the guide lines as reason for the Bd. of Ed. to break off further talks. Union representative Doug Lindsay was unable to con- vince the board officials and their council to negotiate on non-monetary issues. "The issue of calling a person committeeman rather than stewards, baffled the board's negotiations." They didn't want to discuss this simple request, said Mr. Lindsay. Board officials said they are waiting the final legislation One-Year-Old on Nov. 15 and will fnot negotiate until then. Ron Wilde, Pres. Local 1206, said the union is applying for conciliation services of the Department of Labour so the workers can be in a strike position by theend of the present agreement that ex- pires November 28.

Hosital Administrator R. E. E ston announced last Friday that with the installa- tion of a new gas hiread automatic boiler, the neigh- borhood pollution problem will be solved. The new system will be ready for operation by the end of the year and the total cost of the conversion is estimated at $152,697. Sootv emissions from the smoie stack have been a problem in the neighborhood since , 1962 when a boiler fuelled by bunker sea oil was installed in the hospital. This system required a frequent blowing of e stack to get rid of grimy, oily substances in the tubes.

It was a very pleasant afternoon for all. Our local representatives to the Parent Advisory Commit- tee for Hobb's School namely Mesdames Hendrikx. Kil- leen and Price, were unable to attend their recent meeting but we understand, upon receipt of the minutes, that it was very well attended and as a result of the election of officers Mr. Milt Dakin was elected as chairman with Mrs. Nellie Thompson as secretary. Mr. Dakin and Principal E.S. Taylor reminded those pre- sent that this committee functions as a means of communication between the School, the School Board and the different communities the school serves so that all inay work together to assist the whole community andý the school as they attempt to cope with the plans and te problems involving our young people. This is a very wortby group whose aims might well be copied by town schools and parents.
