Dahlia Will omeen .V 3100 West- Iul, we-ct' 1-5211 WW Dmeo .......Pine Street, womibridee-AT $0821 By quaint coincidence the Mayor of Weston and the Reeve of North York assumed similar attitudes on complete};v dissimilar issues in the week just past. Chrono bgically, the Reeve of North York took his stand first. by way of a radio address on Sunday. Topic of the sermon bv Norman Goodhead was "the control of builders and the enforcement of by-laws." Mr. Goodhead's prescription for the epidemic of by- law violations by builders in his township was an en- abling bill from the Ontario Legislature to permit municipalities to exercise architectural control so that buildings would have to be designed so that they could only be used in conformity with municipal laws. In addition, the' North York Reeve contended, the municipality should have the right to grant or with- hold, and to withdraw, licenses for builders. Phase three of the Goodhead formula involved the right to issue occupany certificates for the original and sub- sequent owners. Despite the diversity of issues, both Mayor Holley and Reeve Goodhead acted from the same laud- able motive - to protect the citizens of their reqpec- tive municipalities against potential dangers; in one case from uncontrolled growth, in the other from the establishment of a possible fire hazard. Mayor John Holley, of Weston, on the matter of an application for a license to operate a washing-and- ironing business in the town. persuaded members of Weston council to vote for insertion into their en- dorsement of the application a proviso that excluded use of the premises for dry cleaning -- which use was noCeyen mentioned in the application. Nevertheless, for all the purity of intent both the gentlemen were in error. Mr. Goodhead gave utterance to a most peculiar cry of protest at the end of the second paragraph of his speech. "The builder is protected by law," he complained. In the next paragraph he advised his listeners, with the hint that "here's a how-de-do", of the insistence of the pro- vincial minister of municipal affairs that "you can- not anticipate a breach of your by-laws; you must wait until the breach actually occurs." _ . Anton-n u new Class Mall, You om” Dept., man, on. - of the CIII‘MI Weekly Ncwspapu- Association _ Along almost the same lines, Mayor Holley justified his addition of the stipulation against dry- cleaning in the application considered by the Council by the flat statement that he "assumed that, sooner or later, this applicant will want to engage in dry- cleaning operations." The flaw to be fingered in the attitudes of both these well-meaning men is that their remedies are more dangerous than the ailments they are planned to cure. This builders' license proposition, for instance- almost a fetish now with Reeve Goodhead--could become a powerful weapon in the hands of an un- scruplous municipal office holder. Imagine the lever- age that could be exerted on builders for "eampaign donations" if the municipal council had an absolute veto on the right of a contractor to operate within the municipality. Consider the possibility for capricious exercise of that licensing power by coun- eil ors intent on securing revenge against personal enemies or for rewarding friends and benefactors. No legs dangerous is the Holley formula; the use of "assumptions" of possible, but not necessarily probable, future actions as an excuse for legislation is as unjust as it would be to pass a law today which would make a man liable to punishment for an act he performed yesterday, when such acts were completely legal and right. As the municipal affairs minister pointed out, "you must wait until the breach actually occurs.“ Sympathy with the exasperation which besets Mayor Holley and Reeve Goodhead in their unending war with potential "phonies" who would exploit their respective muricipalities is practically universal. Nevertheless, approval of the methods which they appear to champion is, infinitely less so. cm LUMBER COMPANY NASHVIllE - Phone CYpress 6-1123 THE MAYOR AND THE REEVE V. J.

Sir Of particularly high cali- bre was their closing pres- enation, "Ladies in Retire- ment," which combined hu- mor and suspense with a dramatic portrayal of family affection gone overboard.

Ernie Leistner Bruce Lord Sir: In answer to Mr. A. A. Stevenson re fluorine in the drinking water, there is a book written by F. R. Exner, M.D. and G. L. Waldbott, MIL, on this subject. In their book the authors name 75 communities in the United States which after an experiment with fluorine had revolted to fluorine-free water. Can all these 75 communities be wrong t In some communities resi- dents complained of mottlwl teeth, mouth infections. and other ailments. The people who are interested in fluori- dations should get it in tab- lets. The main reason many of us oppose fluoridation is that it subjects the entire urban population to a medi- eated treatmcnt designed to benefit a comparative few. The program provides no adequate control of the do- sage with respect to the re- quirements and tolerance of individual patients. The results of the treat- ment cannot be predicted. There have been no adequate preliminary studies of the effects of artificially fluori- dated water on children or adults. Authorities agree that, al- though other organs are affected sooner, it takes from 10 to 26 years for the cumulative'ertect, of fluor- ides on the teeth and bones to manifest themselves It will not he known before 1965 whether fluoridation is safe. Tho above information is taken from the book written on the suhjpct by Drs. Exner and Waldhott. 75 COMM I‘NITIES A.
