Must Be Involved But Objective BOOTH â€" PLANNING FACTOR _ VETOES WESTONâ€"WARD 1 UNION _ Mr. Booth said that the planning aspect outweighâ€" ed the other two factors, namely the centralization of North York in the Wilâ€" dlowdale area, and the ecâ€" onomic and social link the western â€" part of North York has with Weston. Although North York continâ€" vued its lead in the number of building permits issued in the month of August, the value was $2.8 millions less than the City of Toronto. Two weeks ago Weston Mayor Wesley Boddingâ€" ton said the Town would support the six borough plan for Metro put forth by MPP Hollis Beckett. This plan recommended a merger of Weston, Swanâ€" sea, York, Forest Hill and a portion of North York south of the Macdonaldâ€" Cartier Freeway. Mr. Bodâ€" dington said he would like to see this proposed borâ€" ough of Yorkâ€"Weston exâ€" tended as far as Steeles Avenue with east â€" west boundaries of Jane Street and the Humber River. _ The Township‘s 625 building permits issued during the month were valued at nearly $11% millions. John Booth has declarâ€" ed that a union of any part of the western portâ€" ion of North York with Weston would be undesirâ€" able. The North York Counâ€" cillor representing Ward 1 said the planning aspect was the most important to be considered. He stated that the problems to be faced were of a totally different nature in the two areas and rather inâ€" compatible.

She said often a family will limp along until the mother may have to see the doctor because she is feeling ill and doesn‘t know what the cause might be. If the mother is not able to care for her family, her doctor may in turn refer her to the family service, who in turn may arrange for a visiting home maker, which is all part of the interlocking social services of referral, of which family serâ€" vice is a part. themselves to be resourceful inâ€" dividuals in dealing with fanmiily problems.; Sometimes it may be a deâ€" pression brought about by sevâ€" eral factors, the main one beâ€" ing the mother‘s inability to cope with the family situation.
