i It was this item that caused _ much confusion to the audience ‘It was pointed out time and Wmgain by members of the auâ€" r‘lence that if the zoning byâ€" "Jaw was not changed simultaneâ€" \®usly with a change in the Asâ€" .;)eument Act _ the township ‘ would be in the position of acâ€" igeptmg a tax on monies that ‘were illegally obtained in the _ first instance. Chairman Bill Lyon made it very plain to his _ listeners that he understood this ‘aspect of the matter very well ‘&nd that he likened it to the _ Federal Government taking inâ€" eome tax from a gambler on his _ @llegal‘ earnings. He â€"further pointed out that if, as and when ‘the required legislation was obâ€" ‘tained, some satisfactory manâ€" _mer of legalizing the whole sitâ€" _ mation would have to be workâ€" + Act be amended so a single family resiâ€" is used for the purpose of a more than one family, :“lu assessment be lev 4 against the property owner. \It was suggested @t Monday‘s * ing, by the chairman, that ‘mn additional assessment of oneâ€" third of the existing assessment might be an appropriate figure ‘#%o use.

The term, "or could be derived from such multiple use", was questioned as leading to the possibility of inâ€" creasing the â€" assessment â€" on homes that dig not actually rent but that had the extra rooms provided for renting. The chairâ€" man stated to the meeting this was not the intent of the legisâ€" lation and was to be applied renting at the time of reâ€"assessâ€" ment. With regard to the probâ€" lem of those people who did not rent all year round, the chairâ€" man stated that it was proposed to use a similar system to that used for â€"business assessment. That is a refund would be given to those persons who applied for it for the number of months that they did not rent in any assessment year. â€" law were too drastic to solve what they felt was really a fransitory problem. . The point was made that the problem would be a shifting one, all over the township, and would not necessarily affect or stay in one area more than another. It was due to this act and that the maâ€" jority of those renting today only to those persons actually wish to have their areas remain and all in theâ€"ground outdoors when danger of frost is past f water well during th immer before there is any suggestion of frost in the fall bring indoors and place in a warm sunny spot.

WHITE ROSE SERVES YOU BEST a single family zone area, that brought about a certain amount of resentment at the way in which the committee was arrivâ€" ing* at its solution. The question of nonâ€"conformâ€" ing usage came up for its anâ€" nual amount of comment. This term means that legislation canâ€" not be made retroactive. In the present problem of shared acâ€" commodation. this feature is a very important one | as ,Jt exâ€" empts a large part of the> popâ€" ulation from the provisions of the zoning bylaw in so far as it prevents shared accommodaâ€" tions in a single family zone area. It was stated at the meeting by chairman Bill Lyon that any person who owned property in the township prior to the June 25th 1952 was exempt from the bylaw. Furthermore, he stated, that any person who could esâ€" tablish a nonâ€"conforming use be‘wceen ihe June 25th 1952 and the Mirch 19th 1954 was also excmpt from the bylaw. â€" Some doubt â€"was cast on the accuracy of the statements by a professional planner in the audience. It was his opinion that prior to the enactment of bylaw 7625 many individual byâ€" laws were in existence restrictâ€" ing multiple use of single famâ€" ily residences, and were absorbâ€" ed into bylaw 7625. This stateâ€" ment then brought out that resâ€" trictive bylaws had to be regâ€" istered on title and it was disâ€" covered that bylaw 7625 had not besn registered qn any title to any property within the townâ€" ship. It took from the 25th of June 1952 to 19th of March 1954 before legislation was obtained which stated that no zoning byâ€" law had to be registered on title to be binding on citizens.

Farr enâ€" (This Week‘s News) CYpress 6â€"1279 One accomplishment of Comâ€" munism in China has ‘been to equalize poverty. So much food is shipped out of the country to support the industrial program that there just isn‘t enough to feed the 650,000,000 people adeâ€" quately. All food is rationed, however, so that no one actualâ€" ly starves. The rationing is «on a graduated scale, according to the work being done. The govâ€" ernment is trying to get people to eat less fice, and more noodâ€" les and sweet potatoes. The latâ€" ter has always been regarded by the Chinese as a weed, suitâ€" able only for animals. Mr. Kinâ€" mond stated that he never saw a dirty . or actually â€" ragged Chinese â€" their clothes were clean and well mended. For the first time, the Chinese now have an intense sense of naâ€" tional pride. They feel that they are now doing things themâ€" \selves, and for themselves. . At the Weston University Women‘s Club, Wednesday, Jan. 22nd, in Central United Church, the guest speaker was William Kinmond, of the Globe and Mail staff, who spent several months last year in China, on a special assignment. Mr, Kinmond exâ€" plained the significance of the title of his recent book, "No Dogs in China". He literally did not see‘one dog in China, and on enâ€" quiring for the reason, was told by people at various levels of society the same story: namely, that when the "American agâ€" gressors" invaded Korea in 1954, they instituted germ warfare, and it was discovered that dogs were carrying these germs, thereâ€" fore all dogs had to be destroyed. Evidently this explanation was accepted by all the Chinese. . The status of women has changed _ radically since 1949. Prior to that time, the woman was a slave in China. The Comâ€" munist regime has made ber an equal with man; Mr. Kinmond‘s only complaint with this was that women now dress so simâ€" ilarly to the men, that they are scarcely â€" distinguishable _ from men on the streets. . He had hoped to see a few of the beauâ€" tiful women depicted in Chinese paintings, but was disappointed. During his 7500 miles of traâ€" velling about China, Mr. Kinâ€" mond found he was able to move quite freely, always with the assistance of an interpreter, often a guide as well. He met with genuine friendliness from the people. The language barâ€" rier caused certain difficulties. as when his interpret could not understand the djalect of the people in a différent city they might be visiting. There are 58 accepted dialefts in the country, all very fficult to learn. The Constitution guarantees freedom of religious belief, and a good many Christian churches are flourishing, though they can not openly approach people to come to their services.

Notably was an oil reâ€" finery which he went to see, with some difficulty. There was some construction going on, but it might be years before it lwould be in operation. Sainsbury Bros. Ltd.
