Upâ€" wards of 50,000 delegates are exâ€" pected. A volunteer force of about 3,500 workers is continuing to search the Metro area for siceping quarters in â€" private komes and Witneses from the Weston area are among those sharing in the rooming hunt. An allâ€"out effort is being made by Jehovah‘s Witnesses in Wesâ€" ton to help find approximately 3,000 more sleeping accommoâ€" dations for the delegates who will attend the "God‘s Sons of Liberty" _ District _ Assembly, June 22 through 26, at the C.N.E. Fairgrounds. e Our request this year was $8.567 million compared with acâ€" tual grants in previous years of $6.8 million. The extra money is largely for the incinerator construction purposes. The sad fact is that now North York will not be able to use these funds for Metro will be taking over the total incineration probâ€" lem Jan. ist, 1967, when these funds will probably be used, and so the effect of their inclusion in our budget is merely a bookâ€" keeping entry to enable North York to say it has sufficient furds to now embark on the inâ€" ciperation construction. funds were provided for necesâ€" sery work . without requiring Metro to sell debentures on the bond market and so affect the eredit position of Metro in this market. In short, this has reâ€" sulted in Metro having considerâ€" ably more money for local area municipality needs. gram. The breakdown of funds is as We now accept all way sidewalks. .
