. While everyone is almost cerâ€" tain that ‘ the roof â€" over . Weston Arena would meet required safety standards, town â€"building inspector Frank Dowthian told czuncil on sevâ€" eral .occasions that it is his opinion the roof should be checked by a quaâ€" lified consulting ‘engineer.

An outsider looking at the conâ€" flicting opinions would be forced to side with council in backing the building inspector‘s recommendaâ€" tion â€" after all until the issue is completely settled. there will remain a small but nagging possibility that the roof could, with the weight of WARRANT «â€" â€" â€" THE WESTON TIMES â€" Thursday, Januéry 6, 1966 C +0ee LEARN how to LIVE â€" educate yourself in the wise use of leisure â€" meet new exciting ;people who know HOW to live â€"â€" think young â€" belong to the comâ€" -qlqvilel{ulmâ€"mflo-flddlmulnumlmflb 4:30 PM, 249â€"9111 before it‘s too late. « NOHNNNNRNHan im tieien en omm hoamenenemsiiniimanrint AT THE s ‘ f MUNICIPAL BUILDING â€" 2000 WESTON ROAD, WESTON To Take Part In Our WINTER FUN PROGRAM From Saturâ€" day, Jan. 8th Unt‘l Late Spring In The Following Activities: â€" WANTED ART . â€" ARTS AND CRAFTS BALLET CLASSES BADMINTON BOWLING BRIDGE CLASSES communNnry CcHOIR CHEFSS CLUB PRAMA GUILD FENCINC CLASs ® GOLF INSTRUCTION JUNIOR LEADERSHIP FIRST IN CANADA w . . _ Published at 2159 Weston Rd., Weston by Principal Publishing Ltd., every Thursday V.

After «ll it is the American who is the foreigner â€" not the Viet Cong. _ “Wi!y"d; the Americans, and Communists in China and Vietnamese find it so easy to shoot each other and innocent bystanders while finding it so difficult to stop .the war? _ Prior to 1949, the Chinese people were sick, fed up and starving under the American supported dictatorship of Chiang Kaiâ€"Shek. When a small Communist movement grew, more and more people were attracted by it and marched with the Communist army which chased Chiang and his army over to Formosa where he to this day is still protectâ€" ed by the U.S. The Communists then chased the French out of Indo The China. Having lost 90,000 lives the Frenth had their fill of the East and a small American detachment of "advisers" movâ€" ed into Viet Nam. At about the same ti an agreement was ratified in Geneva that the Vietnamese wou? allowâ€" ed to determine their political and government fut 1 a free vote to be held‘in 1960. When the year came for the election. the unpopular Diem family was the vésted govâ€" ermnment in the south and received support and the proâ€" tection of the U.S. military might. That election never came and war began. t 2s 1 The Communists said they were fighting to liberate the country from "Yankees‘" and dictatorial rule. and the govâ€" ernment and Americans in the south vowed to destrov the threat of Communism. _ S e L o + The solution to the war is simple enough for a child to understand. All. that is needed is an agreement by the U.S., China, and the governments of North and South Viet Nam to let the people decide their own fate. It is their country, let them run their own affairs. _ | ~ â€"Perhaps the reason the U.S: is so involved in the war is the fact that it has failed the people miserably in promisâ€" ing them.a voice in government. 0 _ Since then, the U.S. military has been dropping bombs and shelling every position where there is suspicion that tharedml_v be a few Communist soldiers of Viet Cong around. > Do the Americans gain any respect by slaughtering inâ€" nocent villagers who have to be in the way of the bombs? Yes. they play right into the hands of the Communists who gain allies of fathers, uncles and brothers of many ot those who are killed. 4 â€" Why has the U.S. finally shown signs of being willing to stop the bloodshed in Viet.Nam? World opinion is one of the reasons and another is Americans are losing hunâ€" dreds of lives in the conflict too. â€" Telephone: 231â€"4161, Locals 212, 213 and 220 [ don‘t often tackle international topics such as the war Tax Prepayment Certificates applicable to the 1966 tax payments, will be available as provided by the Assessâ€" ment Act.
