Reading the area press last week one would almost suspect that it was open season for local polticians and that local regional and area elections were just over the horizon. Mayor Garnet Rickard ailong with councillor Bruce Tink and Regional Chaîrman Walter Beath were the targets of knuckle wrapping for being in the sunny south for a couple of weeks. It is net as if their duties as elected representatives started just a f ew weeks ago. The records show that regional council started meetings in October 1973 and to substantiate this they are seeking $2,500 each from a special fund as remauneration for this time (motion Des. Newman, Ken Lyall). The area municipal councîl had aiso held meetings late in the year 1973. The proof of the pudding will not be determined by holiday records but rather by policy making and service to the community over the entiré year. This is still too early to assess ftor there is a long way to go as of this date. GOUGiNG THE PUBLIC No matter bow one looks at il the general public is being gauged in regards energy costs, especîally those of oul and gas. Tbe substantial increased cost of these products is not reiated to rising costs in production, that of labour, or transportation. TPhe oul coznpanies are recording the highest profits in their histories and whQ until only a few months ago. heard the companies ask for. exploration fonds abouve the normal. TV commercials on Hockey Night 'Canada often outlined the large exploration programs with nothing said of a lack of fuf1ds. But, ail of a s'udden the oul coinpanies, and the producing provinces want to jump on the Arab bandwagon and take a well lubrcated ride. Certainily it is to the advantage of the oul companies to punce on extra exploration funds, use them, and then sit back and in the years ahead reap the benefit of this new found capital input. Likewise the producing Provinces gain financial strenigth and stature through extra taxes and royalties and ail out of an Arab whim or, if you like, policy. No miatter how you read it the general public is beîng gouged. The selling price bas no relationshiip with the cost of production.. The amnazing part is'that the general public bas not yet te raise its voice in protest. However only a few months ago the clamour of the ge-neral public forced Premier Davis to place aside a proposed energy tax of seven percent. This seven percent increase was only peanuts to what we are informed the inicreases will be in the next few months. DELINQUENTS We read in the papers, we hear on the air, 0f killing and stealing and crime everywhere We sigb and we say as we notice this trend "This young generation. Where will it ail end?" But can we be sure that it's their fault alone? roo much money to spend, too much idie ime, roo many movies of passion and crime. Too many books not fit to be read, Too much evil in what they hear said. Too many clildren encouraged to roam By too many parents who won't stay at home. Kids doni't make the movies, they don't write the books That paint a gay picture of gangsters and crooks. Tbey don't make the liquor, they doni't run the bars Tbey don't make the laws, and they don't make the cars. They don't make the drugs that addle the brain lt's ail done by older folks greedy for gain. Thus is s0 many cases, it must be confessed The label "Delinquent'" fits older folk best. FIRE CALL TO THIRD LINE HOME The local fire department was called to the home of S. Wannamaker on Tuesday morning on the third line of Clarke west of Highway 115. A hole was burned in the floor of the bouse along wi th consider- able smoke damage. The fire is believed to be caused by ovenioading an electrical cir- cuit. Orono Brownies 2ND PACIÇNEWS SAT.
