The twertlire tax rate in York Tough?) in the year 1943 was 72.8 mil B. This shows a reduction of 20 mills in six years, or 25% reduction.

The gouncil has endeavoured to equalize the rates of pay of the 'iatg1e,.e: on a basis comparable wit surrounding municipalities. Postwar reconstruction plans are not being neglected by the Town- ship of York and there are many major items for the improvement of the municipality which will have to be considered. Municipalities have to put their plans in concrete form in order to avail themselves were issued to the extent of $2,- M0,000.00 at totes of 3% and luirr, which amounted to a con- siderable saving in interest as the former rate was 412%. At the same time we paid off the 1945-6 maturities amounting to $257.- 998.77 and in October the bonds falling due in 1947-8-9 were paid off to the extent of $449,651.38. In addition to these amounts col- legiate debentures amounting to $37,002.69 were paid off, or, in round figures, th total sum of $844,000.00 was paid off the bond- ed indebtedness of York Township this year. This will mean a saw- ing in interest alone for the year 1944 of approximately $20,000.00. So it is plain to see that if we do not embark on large capital ex. penditures. Mr. MacRae’s predic- tion of a reduction in the tax rate should come true. ‘ of the assistance which no doubt' will be available from both the provincial and dominion govern- ments when hostilities cease. The Municipal Council of the Township of York has submitted various suggestions to the Provincial Re- construction Committee wt Queen's Park involving expenditures of over $2,000,000.00. We require an enlarged sewage disposal plant. A municipal building is being con- sidered. New sewer mains and water mains have to be construct- ed. Bridges and subways are also in the scheme. Major improve- ments to take care of the increased population in the municipality, now amounting to approximately 83,000 people, are the important projects which the Council for 1944 has to consider. Eleven of the brighten Ontario school children. chosen in col-potl- tion, gathered in Toronto to decide the school quiz championships spon- sored by the Ontario Victory Loan Committee.

Mr. MacRae promises that if elected he will maintain the high standard of municipal government in 1944 which he has endeavoured to give to the people of York Township in the past. An all-Island Sugar Cane Farm- er's Association has been formed in Jamaica, to protect the interests of estate owners and sugar cane farmers.

He has brought honor to the town by his appointment. He was born in Bar- rie, spent his boyhood days in Bradford and started there in a drug store at $l.00 a week.. He came to Toronto after serving his apprenticeship. Tgi/ter, from the College of P armacy in 1917, and to hear him telling of his ae- tivities in those old days is to know that he passed through the college of experience. He grad- uated " years ago, joined the Lig- gett Company in Htuniltort as an assistant manager. and from then on worked steadily with this com- pany. In 1936 on the death of the. former president, Jim McCoubry, he was elected president of the Louis K. Liggett Co. Ltd. In the same year he joined the Kiwanis Club of Toronto and has served on various, committees there. One of Weston‘s citizens, E, H. Waldruff, has been elected to the high office of president of the To- ronto Kiwanis Club Inc. This is an honor to the citizens of Weston because the man who assumes this charge of this great working club assumes the responsibility for the administration of the famous Lob- law Fund, the working of three im- portant boys' work centres at Riverdale, Trinity K Club and at Yonge street, also another great girls' work centre just opened. In 1941 he was elected as direc- tor and last year was elevated to second vice-presidency-this year he assumes the high office of presi- dent. His appointment comes from more than 250 members of the club. Wallie has a real voice and is most generous in using it on many occasions. His son was in the air force but was discharged for a dis- ability. His daughter, June, attends Weston Collegiate. Wallie did play Beckett.
