Ratz objected to the increase, He asked if it was fair in the face of heavier impending war taxes. He wasin favor of the band \but felt the grant should remain at |_ "All we‘re doing is asking to put i" to the people and let them deâ€" jeide." Ald MeKersie said. The statement said: "The board‘s decision may make it possible for farmers to be paid more for their cattle this autumn than the averâ€" age prices which farmers have ac tually been receiving during the past month. Jt wall not, however. create cattle prices as high as th artificial levels which have recent ly been quoted in some markets~ Too Late To Classify _ Alid. Raymond remarked that it had been declared illegal to grant an increase to the garbage collector under price control regulations. He referred to the application for a $3,000 grant whereas the society formerly received $2.000. . $2,000 Mr. McGibbon did not believe the band tax byâ€"law would come under the price regulations. Deputy Reeve Sturm, "should have come to council as an organization, not to dictate, but as good honest citizens." "The only question in my mind is the permanence of this petition and bylaw. "If the $3,000 grant were to be made for a period of three or five years or a limited time he would favor it, feeling that the present executive would be in charge for this period.

It is an excellent organization and has done remarkable work in the way of publicity and musical eduâ€" ction and entertainment. . He had every â€" confidence in the present executive and understood the exeâ€" cutive of the past have been of the same standard. _ "I certainly won‘t stand here an« listen to any more such talk," inter jected Solicitor Whitney * __Ald.

Wesley McKersic, president of the musical society, told council nothing was done illegally. He said the society provides auditors‘ stateâ€" ments anpually. "Why did someâ€" body have to go to hell‘s end to make ‘trouble for the society"" "We have something as legal as you can make it. If the peop?e apâ€" prove it, O.K. If they turn it down we‘ll have to be satisfied. I know of petitions here that were never questioned. There‘s really nothing wrong. I don‘t think we should have this publicity throughout the country." e "It seems to me all this discussion is needless," said Ald. Hughes. The act reads we shall submit the byâ€" law to the people. Are we to direct the thoughts of the people or are we to present the byâ€"law as reâ€" quired? I don‘t think it‘s necessary to discuss the merits of the byâ€"law or the petition." "Chewing Matches" Deputy Reeve Sturm: "Did Mr. Gray ask you about the society as to whether this (the grant) was to go direct to the society?" The band, he added, is not an incorporated association. "This band has never been owned by the town," the mayor replied. He said he had told Mr. Gray the executive comprised up to 45 citiâ€" zens, many of them leading citizens, and that Mr. Gray had compliâ€" mented the town on the organizaâ€" tion. f Mayor Bnill felt when 400 rateâ€" payers signed the petition it beâ€" houved Council to honor it. It was up to the citizens to decide whether they would support it. Personally he had faith in the executive Auditors‘ slatements are always presented at the annual meeting. he pointedâ€"out. _ _ â€" The question was une for the ratepayers to decide, Ald. Fred Toletzki said. "If they don‘t feel like voting that‘s up to them. If it goes through it must be satisâ€" factory. They‘re the judge. We have aâ€"band we can be proud of I can‘t see why we have all these chewing matches."" _ Conrad â€" Allendort (Continued from Page 1) Friday, October 9, 1942 WANTED Ottawa Phone wl
