INAUGURAL MEETINGS OF T‘aterloo and Kitchener counr cils, show considerable fore trought on the part of Mayor J m Bauer of Waterico and Mayor Harry Wambold of Kitâ€" chener. Both men expressed some OL their aims for the coming term, a one year effort for Mayor Wambold and two year term for Mayor Bauer. _ The Kitchener mayor has probably come up with the latest idea, a Citizens Comâ€" mittee for that city. It sounds good too, Wncflhl"y when the commiitee could consist of top ranking business men. Many of the best brains in any community are never put to â€"â€"ilayor Jim Bauer, sincere and aggressive as_he is, faces a tough couple of years. The new shopping Mail in down-\ town Waterloo is chiefly his baby, but rapid expansion is manifesting itself all over this city. This could produce some headaches as yet unforseen, although it would appear that council is solidly behind the mayor, a fact that can make little problems out of big ones Thing is of course that with the Twin City‘s on the verse of a great expgmsion programâ€" me, it is a mighty good feeling to have two very capable men heading civic efforts. Someâ€" times it doesn‘t happen this way. CAR OWNERS WHO HAVE made a practise of parking their â€" vehicles overnizght â€" on the street, are warned this practise must be discontinued during the winter months. Police Chief Lloyd Otto said yesterday that the threeâ€"hour parking bylaw will be enforâ€" ced during the winter months so that snow ploughing may be carried on without the hindâ€" rance of cars parked along the curb. He also said that parking would not %alloved on the boulevards. These narrow strips between road and sideâ€" walk is where snow is shoved by the plough. With cars on the strip, snow can only be pushed around and over the car, a situation most owners do not care for. â€" Snow ploughing can be don»e | only at night. Traffic and a large number of parked vehiâ€" cles make it impractible durâ€" ing the daytime. As a private citizen you can help the efâ€" fort by coâ€"operating and pultâ€" ing your car in the garage or: driveway, or you can hinder them by leaving your car on the street. In the latter case, both you and the snow ploughâ€" ing crew will lose time. They by having to go around your vehicle. You by having to visit the police station to pay for a ticket. ACCORDING TO WEBSTERS little black book called The Dictionary, the word Extorâ€" tion, means to "extract forâ€" cibly." + Taken literally, this would mean that taxes, fines, etc, etc., was a form of extortion, which of course we believe they are anyway. However, the word extortion is usually thought of in terms money or valuables being forâ€" ced from some person or perâ€" sons. The extortionist seldom if ever has anything to sell so those being gouged get nothâ€" ing in return. _ _ Under either definition, we are inclined to wonder if a little extortion â€" isn‘t being practised in the form of thg men expressed some of J.HS. surcharge _ ranmed J.HS.
