or have the provincial government dictate to the committees what work must be done to keep the highway properly cleared.This latter course seems to be the easier, since it is the government that pays the shot to the local snowplow committee?.If the government were to take a firm stand on this point, by providing that highway snow removal allowances would be paid only if the highways were kept bare, then this province would in one step have achieved a standard of winter road maintenance equal to that of Ontario, and much more important, would have achieved highways reasonably safe for winter driving.Most people liying in Pontiac are aware of just how bad Highway 8 gets in the winter months.For those who do not, we can state as a fact that more than one salesman who visits the Printshop make the trip from Shawville to Ottawa during the winter, via Haley and Renfrew, where they can enjoy the relative safety and comfort of Highway 17, even though it drive of over 90 miles instead of 50.ment Cr.Orner Dufault gave notice that he will at the March 13th of this Council, introduce I Nation, revision, equalization and I Chichester session\t^\t_ By Law No.V levying a rate of | homolgation of the Valuation I Chapeau Village Rolls.It was moved by Crs.John Clazendon taxation for the 1957 fiscal year.The following correspondence I McBane and Russell Taber that I Dorion & Church was read to Board;
