Boat Basin NOT LocalGarbage Dump

One of the prime mysteries of human behaviour is themanner by which some people are able to justify poorcitizenship. Especially to themselves.

In our book one of the basic truths in life's ethics isthe quotation, "To thine own self be true " whichis only another way of saying - If you want to knowwhether a given behaviour is right or wrong ask yourselfwhether you like yourself better or worse for having doneit.

All of which is a part of our astonishment at the con-tinuing habit of some locals who insist the garbage cansat the Boat Basin are not there for the use of boaters butare really the community nuisance ground or garbagedump.

Person or persons who are well known (we are told)continue to bring their cans and other refuse to the headof the ramp and chuck it in the barrels there and driveaway.

The result is an overflow of cans and garbage to dec- .orate the ramp and dock.

We are informed charges can be laid and are beingconsidered, should the nefarious practise continue.

MAILBAG(Dear Sir: "It has become anauseating cliche - none-theless it's true that all thereally valuable things are tobe had free of charge. Wedo not pay for the ability toenjoy the life we receivedout of eternity for no cur-:rency.

Hence I conclude thatthe knowledge that after all^enhances life should not bepaid for in hard cash, norlocked up in expensivebuildings and it should befree to choose from - all orpart or nothing for laiyoneregardless of age, socialstatus or race.

You know, I should loveto herd all those eager ed-ucationists: parent, reaches,professors, ministers etc. toa lovely dinner prepared bythe worlds best chefs, set upwith lovely china andcut glass, cutlery, flowersand candles. When theyarrive at 9p.m. sharp myspecially trained staff andI will start urging them:"Down with that apperitif,quick swallow the pickledolives. What, you don'twant the fish? Allergic toit? Nonsense - eat it upquickly. You are fi lied tocapacity?- Well let's takethe poker and ram down thefilet mignon. Time to sav-our the wine? Nothing do-ing: we have to finish toget on with the next course.After the main course westill have to do the pastryand the cheese and the.fruit, not to mention thecoffee. -

Again time? Time to donothing but digest? No, no,

Sa l t Spring

,IN THE HOUSE.(ted to bring in a report on f

redistribution. Although Inave not seen the details asyet, the commission has re-jcommended that most of theIslands part of my riding ;Iwill be transferred to a new;jriding. On the basis of the'resultsof the last provincial[election this would make myposition more secure by500 votes. However I have.always enjoyed campaigningjon the Islands and meetingthe people there. Although

rthe majority of them don'tsupport me politically I will/certainly miss campaigning(there. Just one more wordion redistribution. Althoughthe commission's report has'been introduced there isstill no Bill before the leg-islature. This Bill when it^arrives could be radicallydifferent from the commiss-ion's recommendations.

Personally I was more(interested in two other mat-,ters referred to in the Speechfrom the Throne. Read-ers of this column may re-call that I forecast a prov-incial surplus of $68 mill-Ion dollars at the end of the1965 fiscal year. When the

.figures were finally releas-,ed I was very close to themark. Surplus in the finan-cial year we are now in

''will be accumulating at a.rate in excess of $5 million:per month. The questionicomes up as to whether theopposition should fight forred uctions in taxation or in-creases in government serv-ices. Personally I feel that,the emphasis should be onthe latter.

About one month ago Ipredicted that the Premier•would recommend spending'some of this surplus on incr-ieased expenditures in educ-(Cont'd. to P. 8, Col. 3)

;ome on, regurgitate allyou have had, so we canstart again."

I would repeat the per-formance ad infinitum,take minor upsets for grant-ed, blame breakdowns onihe weather, the TV andthe bomb and wonder aboutdropouts.

Those who miraculouslysurvive this treatment rel-atively unharmed for a spec-ified time will be chosenfor staff members and receiveadditional training. Theywill be glad to do unto oth-|ers, what had been donejunto them. (Signed) -

A kind of trick was play-ed on some Socials studentsthis week. Two tests weremade up, one all false que-stions and the other all true.This was to see whether the

..floes who got the first testuld tell the others about

it. As a result, the answersin the second test ran most-ly true, while all of theanswers were false. Thisonly goes to show don't lis-ten to any helpful hints orread the questions beforeyou answer them.

There is much talkthese days about the needfor vast sums to be spent onhigher education, and theFederal Government has re-cognized this-by increasingits grant to the provincesfor university training.How-ever the real financial loadfalls upon the property own-ers who find their taxes go-ing up year by year to payfor education up to the uni-versity level. The speechfrom the Throne in one shortsentence tells us that wewill be asked to approve a isubstantial increase in ex-penditures for education.It is my hope that this willmean a new approach to thesystem of government grantsto local school boards, andthat the increases forecastin the speech from theThronewill be largeenoughto enable a reduction inproperty taxes for schoolpurposes

One further item that Ihope the Premier will spendsome of his surplus on is im-provement in the B.C.Med- 'ical Plan. While it is notthe sort - of medicare thatour party has been fightingfor,it does make it possiblefor many people to havemedical coverage who couldnot afford the higher prem-iums charged by private in-surance plans, or who werepoor medical risks and assuch not acceptable by theprivate companies.The planattracted many of our sen- .ior citizens in particularbecause they are not memb-ers of medicalplans throughtheir employment. Howeverolder people especially of-ten run into very high drugbills,and medical coveragewithout" drug provision doesnot begin to meet their ;
