North York Reeve Would Make TTC. Responsible To Metro _ A nineâ€"point program was ofâ€" fered by Reeve Norman Goodâ€" head of North York as a solution to the "continually deterioratâ€" ing" situation in the Toronto Transit _ Commission. Reeve | Goodhead‘s proposals were conâ€"| tained in a radio address deliverâ€"| ed over a Toronto broadcasting station. | The North York reeve asked. that Bill 80 be amended by the: legislature to make Metropolitan Toronto responsible for the planâ€" ming, design, construction and fi-} mancing of subway and rapid: transit lines. He claimed that provincial grants for such purâ€" poses should be made on the same basis as now applies to roads and bridges. Under the Goodhead formula the Toronto Transit Commission would be responsible only for opâ€" eration and maintenance of the systems, including rolling stock and fares. The T.T.C. would be responsible _ to Metro â€" council, Reeve Goodhead suggested, for cperating the system on a selfâ€" sustaining basis. Commission members would be: appointed by Metro council, with the number of commissioners reâ€" maining at the present number, five, the North York reeve proâ€" posed. â€" Separate â€" operation _ of Gray Coach Lines was another of the Goodhead recommendations, with another commission being named for such operation subject to Metro council control. Excess profits from the Gray Coach Lines would be used by Metro council for extending and imâ€" proving public transit facilities, Goodhead proposed. â€" A summ'ar); of Reeve Goodâ€" kead‘s address follows: The present T.T.C. crisis at The Rev. and Mrs. W.

Comâ€" plete discord has been evident for the past 20 years. Two comâ€"| missioners have been replaced ind still the childish antics of| some â€" commissioners _ continues unabated, even being added to by one of the recent appointees. Meetings _ are conducted â€" like gang fights in the Bowery, with no holds barred. Mr. Alan Lum-\ port, who in my opinion has a wreater knowledge of public tranâ€" ~it matters in Metropolitan Toâ€" ronto than all the other comâ€" missioners put together, has usedl this knowledge to blast the comâ€"| mission apart instead of trying jw mould it into a smooth ef-‘ ficiently operating machine. He .has developed a persecution com-\ plex against his fellow commisâ€" | sioners . and also against | Mr. Fred Gardiner, chairman of the Metropolitan council, resulting in Mr. Lamport‘s many visits to (what I will call) the Wailing Wall, complaining bitterly that he is personally being abused. | _ T.T.C,. civil servants are fed [up, as are the press, the public, \the politicians and the man who "pays the freight, the public tranâ€" \sit rider. The reason for the T.T.C. malfunctioning is fear and \distrust. |\ Mr. and Mrs. J. T. Farr of |Thistletown and Mr. and Mrs. Russ Pearson and sons of Aginâ€" ‘court were guests of Mr. and \Mrs. Jas. Maw Sr. at their cotâ€" {tage last weekend. To sum up, the TT.C. is malâ€" functioning because of internal strife and complete discord. The Metro council is frustrated as they lack the authority and conâ€" trol to effect a solution to the continually deteriorating situaâ€" tion. The press, public and above all, the transport riders, are fed up with this ridiculous situation. In the meantime the Province of ~rI‘VIH P. Maginnis of Welland was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Keyes last yeek.

The solution, in my opinion, is this : 1. That public transportation be recognized as a basic essential service. 2. That Bill 80 be amended as required at the next sitting of the legislature to provide that Metropolitan Toronto be responâ€" sible for the planning, design, construction and financing of rapid transit and subway lines. 3. That the Province of Onâ€" tario provide grants for rapid transit and subway lines on the same basis as presently applies to roads and bridges. 4. That the Toronto Transit Commission _ be responsible for the operation and maintenance of the total Metropolitan transit system, including rolling stock and fare structures. 5. That the" T.T.C. be responâ€" sible to the Metropolitan council for the operating of the system un a selfâ€"sustaining basis. 6. That appointments of memâ€" bers of the commission be made by the Metropolitan council. 7. That the number of memâ€" bers continues to be five. Immediate action required is for Mr. Clarence Downey to meet with Mr. Warrender or in the alternative Mr. Warrender to summon â€" the Toronto â€" Transit Commission to his office. his assistants, Don Ross, Mrs. Florence Weber and Miss Joan Price, enjoyed overnight camping at Heart Lake. The senior Cubs wroup spending the night at the camp were joined on Sunday morning by the junior group for a swim and a cookâ€"out. Those atâ€" tending were Bruce and Alan Belcher, Ronnie Budge, Alan Fines, Paul Flemming, Jimmy Kersey, Ross McCabe, David Price and Ian Pearson. The group was joined by Mrs. Don Ross and children on Sunday morning. The 25th wedding anniversary of Mr. and Mrs. Albert Cabell of Schomberg, ‘celebrated on Wedâ€" nesday evening, was attended by Mrs. O. Devins, Mr. and Mrs. O. Akins, Mr. and Mrs. Ken Devins and Mr. and Mrs. L. Patterson. Mr. L. Moulder returned on Thursday â€" from â€" a _ threeâ€"week vacation in Vancouver, Oakland, Calif., and Windsor.
