Hell HATH no fury lika a woman 1967 The principal question of, conâ€" tention concerned the number of wards and the consequent repâ€" resentation on council and board of education. In considering wards and representation the first fact to be noted is that the population of Weston is about 10,000 and that of York about PHONE 241â€"4411 PHONE 6385717 this fifth ward. Counsel for Wesâ€" would have a population more increase by perhaps 6,000 in a couple of years by reason of deâ€" velopment proposed or on the way. York proposes four wards ranging in population from 30,â€" posal Weston‘s 10,000 population would be part of a ward having a population of 33,689. As an alâ€" ternative York proposes eight wards with three possible disâ€" tribitions shown on maps 9, 10 and 11. York council favours map 11. Four or five wards would call for two aldermen and two board of education trustees to be elected from each ward but with eight wards one of each would be elected from each ward. I have given a great deal of careful and sympathetic considâ€" eration to Weston‘s desire to have two aldermen and two trustees to represent ‘it in at least the first three years, a period of transition. In my reâ€" spectful opinion, however, repâ€" resentation by population is the very fibre of democracy and for this reason I am unable to recommend the five wards proâ€" posed by Weston. On the other hand I believe eight wards with one alderman and one trustee elected in each should be ordered. I suggest that the division into wards be as shown ‘on map 11. It will follow there should be a board of control composed‘ of the mayor and two controllers elected at large. The board of education will be composed of ten trustees, one With instant entertainment right in the homes, people don‘t have to go to schools, theatres and clubs for culâ€" ture and education. They merely have to press a button to view the state‘s version of whatever it is that the state wants them to see. The hero was a man, who be design or by chance, refused to be a programmed citizen and committed the worst of all sins which was to collect books. The <state‘s mechanical dog. sniffed out the books, and alerted the fire marshall. The fire marshall sent out his crew to burn down the house and books and to arrest the hero, who, as you by now probably gather, is an enemy of the state. * ped with state controlled television sets spanning each Somehow, in the chase through the streets, our hero eluded the mechanical dog, and this was realized by the government officials operating the television coverage of the chase. Seeing that the dog was sniffing the ground, attempting to pick up the scent of his quarry, and realâ€" izing that if the public discovered that an individual vicâ€" tor could spark civil disobedience, the state television centre quickly swung the TV cameras on a completely inâ€" nocent victim who was merely out for an evening stroll. Terrified when he saw the mechanical dog now coming at him, the victim ran for his life, but was torn down, and ripped to shreds, with the public believing that it was the fool who had dared to collect books. Had author Bradbury, waited a few years before writâ€" ing Fahrenheit 481, he could have written an identical book about the Red Guards and the China of today. I wonder where the mechanical Red Guards will atâ€" tempt to purge all individualistic thought next? Will it be én Rgssia or in the United States where it will spread to anada? But our hero escapes, and the mechanical dog (China‘s Red Guard), is ordered to catch him.

(Continued from page %) York asks that the hydro elecâ€" tric system in the borough be operated and managed by the council while Weston asks for a hydro electric commission. The only evidence before. me was that the hydro system in York Township is very efficiently opâ€" erated by the council and since this system will form the preâ€" ponderant part of that in the new borough I recommend that the system in the new borough be managed and operated by the council. I recommend also that counâ€" cil elect be directed to meet not later than.December 16th, 1966, to plan and prepare the transiâ€" tion in dealing with appoint ments and necessary . byâ€"laws and integration and that if they so stipulate any action so taken or byâ€"law passed shall come inâ€" to effect at midnight, December 31st, 1966. Except as replaced in this way all local boards should remain in office until their successors are organized and assume office. There was a request also that the Board give direction about the appointments to be made by the new council and as to the terms of hiring and wages of employees. I am of the opinion the Board should not attempt to interfere with the powers of council in these matters. DATED at Toronto this 20th day of September, 1966. J. A. KENNEDY, CHAIRMAN.
