The York Township Community Centres Board must have established some sort‘ of record for the yvear 1965 when it comes to a community orgahnization. The auditors report the board had $50 in cash at the end of the year with a $20,324 deficit. There will be a difference between the men and women playâ€" ground supervisors in York Township this year. The women will be wearing shirts twice as costly as those worn by the men. Weston Mayor Wes Boddington had the answer last week when another suburban member questioned why the need for an air raid siren at the Richview reâ€" servoir in Etobicoke. It was in case of fallout, not a nuclear bomb hit on Metro, said the Weston mayor. It was proposed that Metro ask the federal government for its policy on nuclear war but the Weston mayor killed t:: idea when he said it would take a year to get the answer. Weston Mayor Boddington was so efficient in comâ€" pleting the Metro works committee meeting last week that the committee members didn‘t get their usual coffee. As a matter of fact they wouldn‘t have got it anyway. It seems the coffee and waitress was on the way to the Metro meeting when a city official saw it and ordered it to be served to a city meeting. _ York Township Reeve Jack Mould believes that city representation on Metro executive will be improved by the addition of aldermanic members. A sewer proâ€" ject by Metro and private construction in a section of York Township is giving some ratepayers jitters about vibration and noise not to mention cracked plaster. Two civic projects will now carry the name of Metro commissioners. A water plant in New Toronto is namâ€" ed after Metro Works Commissioner Ross Ch‘r‘k yhi!e The Weston mayor turned down a chance to go to Chicago on a public works convention. His place will be taken by York Township Reeve Jack Mould. Both Mr. Mould and. Mr. Boddington have been named by Metro Council to sit on a new Metro committee which will conduct a number of hearings before the Metro official land use plan is adopted. The committee will hear representations from all 26 municipalities in the 720â€"square mile Metro plgnning area. Warts Metro passed a bylaw last week that will allow for expropriation of property from the south limit of North York Township to Ava Rd. for Spadina expressway and Spadina sewer project. A number of houses in York Township are involved in the Spadina express way project. A total of 64 families in Weston and 168 in York Township are listed by Metro as a;‘licnnu for low rental housing provided by the Ontario Housing Corâ€" poration. The majority of Weston families have four in each family which is slightly below the family memâ€" bership for the majority of applicants from other munâ€" icipalities. York Township has 20 applicants with each family having seven or more m_emberu': . a lov;“r:r.l::lv ap;fl_t;e;{-_;:t;};ét for the elderly in Thistletown will be named after Metro Welfare Comâ€" missioner Robert Smith. _ _ _ . Weston Mayor Wes Boddington tried but lost out in -wmnv.mman&wmw. W. Gardhouse raised an extra $1 a year above the proposed $2,600 increase Metro Council did apâ€" prove.

(At King St.) Weston CH 1â€"2233 SMITH, MARY DEATHS Repeatedly, Godfrey has warnâ€" «d that Metro politicians and the Toronto Transit Commission will shelve plans to build a subway to serve residents in the westâ€" end of North York and instead build a line along Quéen St., if council doesn‘t insist on priority for the Spadina route. Start on the Spadina subway and expressway . projects . first, avd then start on the Yonge: St. subway extension from Eglinton Ave. to Sheppard, says Councilâ€" Icr Paul Godfrey. In a press release, Godfrey rapped the TTC, the Metro Transportation Committe and Metro council for. "poor comâ€" munications and reckless haste" in their handling of the Yonge subway extension. If many people are under the impression that the Catholic Women‘s League is a money grabbing organization, at least part of the fault lies in the Leagâ€" ue‘s lack of good public relaâ€" tions, said Rev. Egbert Gossart. THE PROBLEM He said the TTC had failed miserably in preparing plans on alternate routes, resulting in opâ€" position from people living on both sides of Yonge to a subway rumning up their side of the street. The TTC should have also studied the possibility of buildâ€" ing the subway under Yonge St. Godfrey suggested. Addressing the Spring meeting of the North York Council, C.W.L. in St. John the Evange list Church, Weston, Father Gosâ€" sart said reports in the press would indicate that the League is a materialistic group interested only in making money. ‘"Many people have been alienâ€" ated, some to the point of bitter disgust over the initial dictatorâ€" Mrs. J. N. Flahiff, Ticket Conâ€" venor for the Archdiocesan Conâ€" vention to be held on May 19, 1966, urged all Parishes to send in requests for the Luncheon at the Royal York Hotel as it was "first come, first served". Mrs. C. J. Tipping announced t&at the Frovincial Convention the Catholic Women‘s League will be held at the Inn On The Park July 5, 6 and 7 and all were invited to attend. ‘Materialistic Reputation Our Fault‘ Rev. Gossart Tells CWL At St. Johns The Presidents of the followâ€" ing Parishes gave their Annual Reports; St. Bernard‘s, St. Gabâ€" rel‘s, St. John‘s, St. Edward‘s, St. Bonaventure, St. Jude‘s, St. Mergaret‘s, St. Philip Neri, St. Paschal â€" Baylon, Immaculate gpNG&WLAfI‘IONS to M}'. and CONGRATULATIONS to Mr. and Mrs. R.

IST TRETHEWEY CUBSâ€"have & Yonge Exte James Wilton Hardington & District hm UMGMIS hchv COOQINâ€" Wt CPPUCLL orta S ial action of our. so called demâ€" ocratic government. The apparâ€" ent cure to transit problems in the heart of suburbia has turned out to be one of the biggest open sures facing Metro officials," he said. * THE REASON ‘"Metro councillors are facing this problem because they deâ€" cided . to pull a political flipâ€" flop from Spadina to Yonge without investigating all the problems and subsequent reâ€" percussions. . Previous councils established the ground work for future rapid transit lines within the 240 square miles known as Metro," he said. "This was achieved only after a series of involved complicated studies were completed. The reâ€" port, which was adopted by all Metro departments and officials, indicated that the Spadina exâ€" pressway and rapid transit lines should be built." THE ANSWER Millions of dollars have been spent in expropriating homes to build a subway in the northâ€"west sector of the township, he said, and this investment should be protected by immediately buildâ€" ing the Spadina subway which was planned several years ago. Conception, St. Margaret Mary‘s end St. Wilfred‘s. Mrs. H. J. Wolfson gave the Chairman‘s Report and Mrs. J. J. Matthews, Archdiocesan President, commented on all the reports given during the evenâ€" ing. _ Materialistic Mrs. Marion Kennedy _ took the floor to comment on the fact that although Catholic Woâ€" men‘s League Councils are reâ€" quested to give support and money to many various organiâ€" zations, the Constitution states that the Spiritual Direcor has the final word in all things. This seems to be a contradiction she felt. Mrs. J. J. Matthews replied by saying that all these requests were strictly voluntary and it was up to the individual Council to decide whether or not they wish to participate. Father Gerald Breen; Archâ€" diocesan Spiritual Director, spoke briefly and encouraged all to keep up the good work accomâ€" plished in North York region. He mentioned that toâ€"day‘s soâ€" ciety has seen a general breakâ€" down in all authority with very been visiting a few places lateâ€" ly. 1 have been told by Mrs. Gander that on May 11, 1966 the Cubs and Explorers visited the Razzle Dazzle Television Proâ€" gramme and that on Saturday May 14th, they will be visiting the Toronto Humane Society.

Last Show 8:30 244â€"8592 For the purpose of Census adâ€" ministration, Canada is broken down into 8 Census Regions, each centred on a permanent Reginal Office of the Dominion Bureau of Statistics. These are located at St. John, Halifax, Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto, Winâ€" nipeg, Edmontor and Vancou At these offices the Regional Officer and senior staff hire and train some 80 Regional Office representatives. Each RO.R. is hired for about a year and each has a particular area for which he is responsible. Across Canada, there are some 1,600 Census Districts, and for each district there is a Census Commissioner _ (appointed _ in April). The Census Takers, (or enumâ€" erators) are hired by the Comâ€" missioners and they must pass a qualifying test prescribed by the D.B.S. Census Division. Each takes an Oath of Secrecy on hirâ€" ing. Be Counted For Canada _ Gensus Takers Have Orders Not To Miss YOUR Name .. The Census Commissioners are appointed on the authority of the Minister of Trade and Commerce. The Regional Office Representativese interview canâ€" didates, grade them and make recommendations forâ€" hiring. sad results. This is one reason why the League Constitution stipulates that the Spiritual Dirâ€" ector must have the final word as it teaches us discipline which we sorely need toâ€"day. Father Gossart in his comâ€" ments mentioned that there have been reports in the daily press regarding the fact that the Cathâ€" olic Women‘s League is very materialistic and strictly moneyâ€" making. He stated that this imâ€" age was lorgely the fault of the League publicity. All the news items and events sent in to be published are in â€" reference to rummage sales, bake sales, etc. Very little, if any, mention is made on all the hours spent by members on the United Appeal and Cancer Society, working for Childrens‘ Aid Society, Altar Soâ€" ciety and many more activities in the spiritual field in â€"which they take part.

Finally these Census Commissioners will hire and train about 30 Census takâ€" ers each and be responsible for permanent D.B.S. staffers in, Toâ€" 9,000 Census Takers Thus the Toronto region alone will hire more than 9,000 perâ€" sons in all for the taking of the Census in 1966. Other regions but basically the same strative concept . is across Canada. will be hired in the week before the Census starts on June 1, 1966. If each Census Taker were to miss just one person, the Cenâ€" sus would be 30,000 out â€" about as many persons as live in Belâ€" leville or Moose Jaw! Census Takers average about 600 names each, and 150 houseâ€" holds depending on the .area covered. In rural areas, they are paid a little more per capita in liey of travelling expenses. 60 Percent Women About 60% of the "Census Takâ€" ers in 1961 were women, and a like proportion of women will probably be hired for the 1966 Census. The Population Census is exâ€" pected to be completed in two weeks. The bulk of the work will be completed by the Cenâ€" sus Takers in the first few days, with callâ€"backs extending . the time needed for the Census. POSTAL CHECK Apart from the checking done by the enumerators and Census Commissioners, there is an adâ€" ded check through the Post Of fice Department in Urban cenâ€" tres with letter carrier walks. Census Takers make out a card for each house, and the mailmen check out these cards on their route, using their knowledge of the area. Any homes (dwel lings) missed by the Census takâ€" ers (those without a card) are noted by the mailmen, and subâ€" sequent Census Takers followâ€" ups are made to these homes. Tabulations of the figures colâ€" lected is done in Ottawa by Computer; the regions do not collate area figures. The Census records are sent to one of the eight regional offices where they are checked carefully and then sent to Ottawa where the inforâ€" mation is fed into the compuâ€" tor.
