Credit for much of the success of the camâ€" paign must be awarded to the hard working interim committee of the association and later to the elected executive board of direcâ€" tors. Tribute must also be paid to those. that nucleus of music lovers in the Weston area, who had the vision to initiate the venture. We offer our heartiest congratulations to the recently formed Concert Association of Weston on the gratifying success of their reâ€" cent membership campaign. The tickets to the first series were a complete sellâ€"out, and, in fact, there is a sizeable waiting list. There are many things about this crossing that contribute to its hazard, not the least 6f which is the fact that there are two sets of tracks, both CNR and CPR and two sets of wigâ€"wags which can easily confuse or mislead a driver. Adding to the driver‘s confusion are the many shunting trains and the trains stopâ€" ping at the two stations immediately north of the crossing. Often the wigâ€"wag is going apparently as the result of a shunting train The removal of the Lawrence Avenue level erossing should be given top priority by Metro because it is both extremely dangerous and also a great bottleneck on a heavily travelled thoroughtare. Level railway crossings in a built up area are all dangerous, everyone concedes. Wesâ€" ton and district residents are quite familiar with them because in this area there are more than a fair share of leve] crossings. Lawrence Subway Needed Now The news report in last week‘s issue of this newspaper revealing that a START on the construction of the Lawrence Avenue "subway" would not be made until 1959 deâ€" mands action by the Weston municipal counâ€" cil to impress upon Metropolitan Toronto officials the need for immediate action to remove this mogt dangerous traffic bottleneck.

Post Office The crossing is an inexcusablé bottleneck on one of the busiest Metro thoroughfares in the western area of the city. Tr::c on the only eastâ€"west artery between Wilson Ave. and Eglinton Are. is held up many, many times in one day by this crossing. The bottleâ€" neck also aggravates the snarl of traffic at Main St. and Lawrence Ave. and at Scarlett Rd. and Lawrence Ave. because of its proxâ€" imity to the traffic lights at these two interâ€" sections. f Four persons met their death at the Lawâ€" rence crossing during the last eight years, an average of one fatality every two years. Must we wait for four more yearsâ€"and probably for at least two more fatalities before this hazard is removed? ness to the fact that the need for community activities in the Weston ares, far from deâ€" clining. is Tontinuing to growâ€"and such culâ€" tural activities as the soon to be launched concert series are among those desired. This newspaper wishes the association a successful season next fall and winter and hopes that such groups with faith in the future and filling a need in the community will continue to spring yp in the community. Also contributing to the crossing‘s hazard is its sharp uphill approaches which are especially dangerous under icy, wintertime conditions. There are a number of through trains using the tracks over the crossing, travelling through the town at excessive a little from the crossing but may in reality be caused by a lutm :umw train approaching the crossing and momentarily hidden from the driver‘s view by the shuntâ€" ing freight.

Clitferd Winder of Winders Taxi company told the execuâ€" tive that he would make his lot on John Street available for five years if the association would as secretary for R. J. Campbell who is in Toronto General hosâ€" pital. Councillor Gordon Moore, chairman of the police and Trafâ€" fic committee for the town, gave a brief talk on the traffic situaâ€" tion. He suggested that "No Parking" restrictions be enforced from Main St. to Little Ave. on the both sides of Lawrence Ave. No Minister or member of the Government spoke on the subâ€" ject but Opposition members brought forth some good sugâ€" gestions. Commenting on the tremendous changes in Canada‘s economy in the past few years, Mr. Drew pointed out that most businesses, which have gone Weldon Inch, a Weston drugâ€" gist, said this would be an exâ€" cellent proposition and one that the association should investiâ€" gate. Members of the committee to see the town merchants are Lindsay Cott, chairman, Wilfred Reeves, Irving Beck and Milt Henry. _ _ Norman Groat presided over the meeting in the absence of Bruce Pollard, vresident, who is ill and W. C. Boddington acted Councillor Moore said that when there is no supervision on the regulating of traffic in and out of the Loblaw Parking lot there is almost always congesâ€" tion of traffic there. It was his opinion that Lawâ€" rence Ave. should be widened for the purposes of improving the traffic flow. Councillor Moore also said that when the parking lots are openâ€" ed it would be wise to have only twoâ€"hour parking there at one time. The major House of Commons debate this week was on an amendment, guggesting the Govâ€" ernment hire itself an efficiency expert to investigate its own waste and extravagancé. Needâ€" less to say, the amendment was voted down! Opposition _ Leader â€" George Drew moved his amendment . . . "that consideration be given to the appointment of a commission to examine into and report upon economies and improved servâ€" ices which could be effected by reorganization and elimination of Government duplication." Dodge Regent Suburbes ;ASI See Ito e o o by MARGARET AITKEN, M. P. °1 tu ception was held for Bighop and Mrs. A. R. Beverley to which the delegates to the Synod were inâ€" vited. ~ Last Sunday Rev. Geo. Young, who has recently taken over the incumbency of St. Matthias church, Westmount, was the ‘luut preacher at the 11 o‘clock service. _On_ the subject of publicity, Mr. Drew waxed sarcastic. Said he ... "Then there is publicity and oh, how publicityâ€"conscious this Government is! In the last year before the war the amount was $1,794,000 and this year the amonut is $7,633,790." Holy Communion services will be continued at 8 a.m. each Sunâ€" day during June. It is likely that church services will have to be held in the parish hall through part of July and until the comâ€" pletion of the church extension in the late fall. The contract has been let to Cloke Construction Co. and it is likely that work will commence later this month. In preâ€"war days, $680,000 was spent on telegrams, ts‘gphones and other forms of co nicaâ€" tion. Last year, $7,356, was spent. through great expansion, have found it advisable to seek outâ€" side, independent advice as to how that expansion could be brought into an efficient entity. Government, which has expandâ€" ed more than any other business, refuses such outside, independâ€" ent advice. Special mention was made of the pensioner who. suffers most from the inflation that has come to Canada. The pensions that were adequate a few years ago are not enough to live on now. ‘"In tackling any problem of this kind, the essential considerâ€" ation is to obtain the facts," Mr. Drew said. "We have not the facts today." In 1938â€"39, the total amount spent by the Government of Canada was $533,063,000. For the year 1954â€"55 the total expendiâ€" ture was more than four and a quarter billion. If that isn‘t expanded big business, what is? It was figures like these that prompted members in all corâ€" ners of the Opposition to suggest there should be examination of Government â€" to coâ€"ordinate activities and stop duplication, to improve services and increase efficiency. The suggestions were veheâ€" mently voiced but that is as far as they got. The Government refused to be examined. Sunday school will be closed during July and August. The Sunday school picric will leave the parish hall at 1.30 p.m. sharp for the River Valley Park, Highâ€" way 27, by bus. Although tea, freshie and ice cream will be available, children and parents are asked to bring their own food. The QGuild honoured Mrs. T. B. Butler at dinner and later at movies on May 30th when they also presented her with a corâ€" sage of red rose buds. The Couples‘ Club are having their annual family picnic on Saturday, June 18th, when cars will leave the parish hall at 10.30 a.m. for the Terra Cotta playâ€" ground. Then, the Conservative leader proceeded to give some facts . . . A warm welcome is extended to Mr. and Mrs. Lyle McNertâ€" ney, who make their new home at 11 Harrow Dr. _ Open air services, sponsored by the Deanery. will be held Our deepest sympathy is exâ€" tended to Mrs. J.

Committees are being organized amongst the churches taking part so that the preliminâ€" ary organizational work of the Billy Graham Mission will be taken care of and arrangements made for the successful missionâ€" ary campaign in the fall. All those interested are urged to get in touch with the rector without delay. This is most important. Don‘t forget the annual picnic of the Married Couples Club on Saturday, June l1th. All memâ€" bers are asked to meet at the church at 1 p.m. "Jesus and Politics" was the theme of the sermon by the minâ€" ister last Sunday morning. Largely as a result of Christ‘s teachings, Christians today, and others, have a right which the early Christians did not have â€" a responsibility for determining the nature and composition of our government. It is no use, the minister said, to complain about "crooked politicians" running things. If they are in power, it is because people voted for them. If such are in power, then it is our duty to relegate them. by our votes, to harmless obscurâ€" ity and impotence.
