Riedel said, The drive to gain public support must be successful because if it's not. "it will be at least two years before we can try again," he said. “Our main job will be to educate the public because there are still a lot of people who don't know much about the issue."

Jim Colley, who was unable to attend Thursday's meeting, was named president while Riedel and Ader Hind of Waterloo were named vice-presidents of the society. “They scouncih are waiting for a report from the ministry of health con fluoridation, and who pays for that? I think we have a right to ask for funding if we need it," he said. Prior to the meeting. Riedel told the Chronicle that members of the society may seek financial assis- tance from the City to help pay campaign expenses. He said he IS -concerned" that council will be using public money to present its side of the fluorida- tion issue prior to the plebiscite, The anti-fluoride lobbyists plan to sell society memberships to help defer costs Incurred during the campaign. The society's campaign. he said, will include advertising. pamphlets and guest speakers at an estimated cost of $2,000. “It‘s a possibility and one we shouldn't overlook," Riedel said. “But we'll have to decide at a fu- ture meeting." Riedel told supporters the plebis- cite tS four months away “but we're gomg to have to get moving If we want towin,” But after much discussion. the group decided to retain Its name because It was felt It's too late to change before the June plebiscite, group of radicals or something to do with swnmming and water sa- fety." he said.
