[" 4 Sw da ; The___ mayor looks at 74-75 by CLAUDE PILON MAYOR OF HUNTINGDON The year 1974 has just ended and it seems worthwhile to review what happened in Huntingdon during that year, specially on the municipal scene.If 1972 and \u201973 were periods of great activity for Huntingdon, with the realization of important projects such as the Municipal Building on Prince Street and, with the participation of adjoining municipalities, the Regional Arena, the year 1974 was for our town a time for the up-dating of municipal by-laws and for consolidation.The Municipal Council made a complete revision of the Building by-law which dated back to the >40s.This required many hours of work and study on the part of the Council and specially from the Building and Zoning Committee.There was also a complete revision of the Business Tax by-law to make it more equitable and better adjusted to the times we live in.The former bylaw also dated back to the 1940s.The updating of municipal by-laws may seem a small task but revision of just these two by-laws required around 200 written pages and our town clerk had to put in an \u2018enormous amount of work.Housing The year 1974 has also seen in our town the continuation of a housing development already begun in 1973.This means that the sums expended by Council for installation of water and sewage services in the western and northe:n parts of the town were well utilized.Also 1974 was the occasion for Council to initiate a project which will prove to be the most important for Huntingdon in its 150 years\u2019 existence : The modernization and expansion of the filtration plant.This project which should have been undertaken many years ago, according to the Ministry of Municipal Affairs, cannot be postponed any longer.High cost The project has reached the stage of the opening of tenders and (No doubt you have read about it in The Gleaner) the cost will be over $3,000,000.This is a lot of money and your Council is aware of it.This is why we are negotiating with the Provincial Government for aid to carry out this project in the best interests of the population of Huntingdon and the area, without burdening the population for decades to come with excessive debt.This modernization of the filtration plant has been the object of an authorizing Order-in-Council from the provincial government.This means it could be proceeded with without the democratic process of a referendum.However, be assured the Council will undertake this project only if the population so desires and will make public all the information possible concerning this endeavour.truly a gigantic one for the Town of Hun- tingdon Industry involved In the filtration plant we are faced with a dilemma we must solve.The fact is the industries in Hun- tingdon require such a quantity of water that the present filtration plant is incapable of meeting with the demand.To refuse to expand and modernize the filtration plant would endanger the economy of the town, causing massive lay-offs of employees who are the mainstay of Huntingdon's economic development.So therc can be no (continued on page 10) 112th YEAR Eo Ÿ ES _HUNTINGDON Que.Wednesday January 8, 1975 Rockburn

noting that Daigle was on probation for a previous conviction when the crime took place.In asking for a shorter sentence of seven or eight years.Defense lawyer Charbonneau noted that Daigle had not been the instigator of the robbery.He also stated that Daigle had been co-operative with the police since his arrest.Riverfield Club 150th anniversary Riverfield Curling Club pulls out all the stops

severe form of influenza is prevalent in the Chateauguay Valley and this week authorities at Barrie Memorial Hospital in Orm- stown reported a high incidence of cases in the last few weeks.While not actually barring them.the Barrie Memorial Hospital is discouraging visitors in an attempt to protect patients.And the hospital's medical centre has received as many as 30 calls in one day from flu victims, The hospital said that as near as can be determined those people who had been vaccinated against flu were less likely to be afflicted than those who had not.Doctors describe this particular variety as being of Australian origin, and while the number of cases reported has not reached record proportions, the severity of the symptoms is unusual.The elderly and the very young are the hardest hit by the respiratory illness.which may have gastro-intestinal Huntingdon water works Filtration plant key to economic future Huntingdon's Town Council should learn on or before Jan.14 the extent of assistance it can rely on .from the Quebec government in carrying out the vital enlargement and modernization of the town's water filtration plant.The matter currently is under consideration by the government following talks on Dec.30 in Montreal between Municipal Affairs Minister Dr.Victor Goldbloom and Hun- tingdon's Mayor Claude Pilon.Sitting in on these discussions were Hun- tingdon MNA Ken Fraser and the town\u2019s water committee composed of Alderman McGerrigle, Lazure, and Laplante and John Brown, superintendent of the water plant.The Jan.14 date is important because bids for the project, already opened and held in abeyance are firm until that date.There were {wo of them : Sogerpro of Montreal at $2,498,498 and Marcelen Co.of Montreal at $2,516,370.Both bids, reflecting inflation, were far in excess of the figure expected when Town Council called for bids.Also they are far in excess of anything the mayor and council figure Huntingdon could handle alone.Big debt feared Were that to be attempted, the mayor explained in his New Year's message and review of 1974, it would mean that future generations of Huntingdonians would he saddled with massive deht.What is needed is healthy assistancefrom Quebec if Huntingdon is to remain a progressively advancing industrial area in the heart of an agricultural community.The facts of life, as they pertain to Huntingdon and area and hearing specifically on the water filtration plant, were outlined to Municipal Affairs Minister Gold- bloom, the mayor told The Gleaner.It was pointed out that Huntingdon is a community where at least one quarter of the populace is over the age of 65.This means this segment of the population is not composed of wage earners and thus is in no position to accept greatly increased taxation to meet the costs of the water project.Additionally only one third of those who work in Huntingdon's textile mills live in the town .The rest commute {rom side-effects.Other symptoms are

And when he told her she'd get more depressed than ever until he worked out a solution as recounted in his London Daily Mail column by Colin Hall.The husband bent the news a little by changing the offending and operative word in news items and heres how the coal miners\u2019 strike story came out: \u201cA national two-day streak has been called by the miners.The chairman of the streak committee says that in some areas this will take the form of a go-slow streak but pickets will be on duty to make sure it is a total, all-out streak right across the country\u2019.Or, this one: \u2018Elation is soaring throughout the country.No avenue of national life has escaped.Everywhere elation ts on peoples\u2019 lips.\u201d Factual?Not very.But you've got to hand it to those Brits when it comes to finding a way to muddle through the sticky patches.Old blue jeans Take a fond look at those faded blue jeans.They may be on the way out though that's hard to believe when they are so much loved and so practical: not just by .wearers here in the Chateauguay - Ney Valley.but everywhere.However the implication is there for all to read in a new book called \u2018Man in Charge\u2019 by New York fashion designed John Weitz.On the financial pages of the big city daily blats there's all sort of stuff these days about hard times acoming and, says Weitz, fashion history shows that people always dress against the economic trend of the times.In the affluent '60s and on to today in Trudeau's \u2018Just Society\u2019 about which one doesn\u2019t hear much any more, it has been chic to look like a peon.: People spent a great deal of time to ensure that they looked as though they really didn\u2019t care how they looked.Especially the young.So far as Weitz is concerned the tramp look has been nothing more than a great and contagious costume party to hide insecurity.This is not to suggest that Weitz sees greater security in the times ahead.Quite the contrary.His theory is that everybody now will want to look like a million bucks - for as long as they can - even if its only because they owe that much.Too bad [if he\u2019s right].For those of us who didn't realize we were dressing down, those faded blue jeans were so comfy.Mable Erskine's death brings sense of loss A funeral service for Mabel Erskine, held at the McGerrigle Funeral Chapel on Dec.23, was England.Newcastle-on-Tyne, The

Erskine, came to Canada from Strooma.Scotland, and her mother.Janet Dawson, from Noyan & Clarenceville elementary school.Crippled by polio before she was three her mind was alert but her body was frail and life could be difficult.Perhaps the happiest years of her life were about 25 vears ago and on, when her parents lived at St.Sauveur.Mabel was a nature girl.She loved birds, the woods, lakes and wild creatures.There she could ski on the gentle slopes, or move Mrs.Elsie Derick Calvin Wilson ot Lachine was a recent visitor of his aunt, Miss Grace Wilson.Mrs.Ethel Mosher accompanied her son

to feed the birds and every month a cheque was sent to the S.P.C.A.She walked and sewed and helped her parents with the garden and housekeeping.A lovely self-designed, stitched and frained picture of deer and birds in the woods hangs in her room and will be a treasured heirloom in the family.Inspiration Neighbours admired Mabel for her courage and lack of self-pity and saw the deep compassion she had for other handicapped people.She was an inspiration to all who knew her and there was sorrow and a deep sense of loss when she died after several weeks in hospitals.Predeceased by her father and sister Margo, Miss Erskine is survived by her mother and two brothers, Jack of Montreal and Fred of Deep River.Letters to the Editor Curling coverage lauded December 19, 1574 Editor The Gleaner Dear Sir: The writer is a recent yearly subscriber to The Gleaner.Much to my surprise, 1 am scanning this thoroughly each week more than I had originally anticipated.It was a further pleasure to note that a weekly curling column by Glen Whyte will be a regular feature throughout the winter season.This was particularly pleasing in view of my connection with the publicity committee of the Canadian Branch.We visited the Riverfield Curling Club last Saturday to see the finals of the Canadian Branch Seniors Event.Some of our friends then informed us that Glen Whyte lived in Howick and that he would probably be reporting curling events through the whole area of the Chateauguay valley and Huntingdon.He will no doubt provide the area with complete coverage on the Riverfield 150th Bon- spiel which, we believe, will be a real attraction as it represents a Branch highlight event this season.We would like to congratulate your newspaper and Glen Whyte for your fine work to the curling fraternity.Yours very truly, \u201cim Newman, Chairman, Publicity Committee Public should be informed Born] Died Card of Thanks ROBERTSON - Donnie and Jean [née Furey] of Huntingdon are proud to

The Huntingdon Gleaner Huntingdon, Que Dear Sir: .Please find enclosed minutes of the Protestant Regional School Board of Chateauguay Valley as per our promise - also our last Newsletter.(Excerpt from Newsletter of Dec.3, 1974): \u201cConfidential\u201d Public Documents?You may recall that last year C.V.T.A.had to induce the Protestant Regional School Board of Chateauguay Valley to allow us to have copies of Board minutes by initiating grievance procedures - this although the law clearly states that the syndical unit has the right to these documents.Since then, we have beenprovided with these minutes only a month later after thev have been \u201capproved\u201d.Upon consulting with the PAPT\u2019s lawyers,Levesque & Brodeur, we have been advised that this is illegal unless the Board also waits for approval of minutes before implementing any resolutions.I have written to the Chairman of the: P.R.SBC.V., Mr.Lepoidvin but have not had a reply.Having managed to delay us a few months with obstructive tactics making it necessary to institute grievance procedures last year, I sincerely hope he does not plan to follow this route again.We are supposedly living a democracy - we pay the taxes we support the services of the state - including education.We have a free press which informs us of local issues yet the PRSB.CV.has seen fit to refuse \u2018The Huntingdon Gleaner\u201d copies of Board minutes on the grounds that these PUBLIC DOCUMENTS are too are not prepared, to see \u2018confidential\u2019.We our local press provided with \u2018Regional News\u2019 and the promised handouts edited by the Director of Elementary Education.The C.V.T.A.is not willing to see this situation continue and will provide copies of Board minutes to both \u2018The Huntingdon Gleaner\u201d and \u2018\u2018The Saint Lawrence Sun\u2019\u2019 to ensure that the publie knows how its School Board is functioning.It really is interesting that the Greater Montreal Board publishes its minutes freely and claims to be willing to open its books to all - yet the PR.SB.CV.finds it necessary to keep its affairs \u2018\u2018confidential\u2019\u2019.As teachers, we feel that the better informed the public is, the more support we teachers will win.Yours truly Janet Proulx, President C.V.TA.Guelph girls send thanks Guelph.Ont.Editor, The Gleaner.Dear Sir: On behalf of the University of Guelph

expenditures.situation necessitated we must meet them.\u201cThus the crucial we face \u201cWe are faced with a today.\u201d giant dilemma which must be solved,\u201d said the mayor, noting that the waterworks problem goes back a good many years.\u201cThis is a vital project for which we have to find the answers quickly if for no other reason than the economic interests of the entire area at a time when inflation is such an eroding influence.That's why we need massive assistance from Quebec and why we are attempting to get this.\u201cThe fact is that the mills, so very much the heart of economic wellbeing to the town and the area have increasing water demands beyond that which our plant can Howick parents enjoy Back in 1970 or so when estimates on the filtration plant job were in the neighborhood of $1,500,000, Quebec was prepared to come up with assistance amounting to 60 per cent.Now that inflation has skyrocketed projected costs, Mr.Goldbloom was told that 60 per cont of the total would be insufficient and he was inclined to be sympathetic to this view.the mayor said.In his annual review the mayor pointed out that Quebec, by order- in-council has ordained that this project must be carried out and in this fashion has clad the council with authority to go ahead no matter what the cost.At this juncture the mayor's great concern is to get a start on the work which has been from page | considered for so long - a good many thousands of dollars have already gone into surveys and planning and consultations - but to try and avoid the borrowings of private monies which would saddle the town with a debt which would extend possibly over generations were it to fall entirely on townspeople.As to any increases in taxes for services such as water, sewage and so on, the mayor said that for 1975 this is out.Were there to be such increases, by law they should have been instituted before the start of the New Year.Asked how hopeful he was that some really tangible help will be forthcoming from Quebec the mayor answered simply: ''l am very hopeful.I trust we will have good word by Jan.14.\u201d school entertainment by FLORENCE CRAWFORD The remarkable involvement of the community in the activity program of Howick Elementary School was more than ever apparent when the children put on their Christmas Assembly and gave demonstrations and displays of their

ensuite Me Renaud, associé d\u2019Ampleman , demandait a la Cour de se retirer de cette cause.C\u2019est pourquoi 4 Jean-Paul Daigle Jeune tué par une motoneige Le 22 décembre dernier, vers les 17\u2018:45 heures, un autre incident très malheureux survenait sur la réserve indienne de St-Régis.Cette fois, une motoneige en était la cause.En effet, une jeune homme âgé de douze ans, et dont la résidence est Hogansburg, fut heurté par une motoneige Snow-Chief conduite par Roy Adams, 34 ans de St-Régis.Ce jeune mourut par la suite.La victime est Louis Smoke, Jr, du River Road à Hogansburg.Ce dernier pelletait de la neige au moment de l\u2019accident.L'agent Serge Granger de la Sûreté du Québec, détachement de Huntingdon, fit les constatations .proclamait le d'usage.Il semble qu'il y aura une enquête du coroner dans cette affaire.La Gazette publiera la semaine prochaine un rappel des événements de 1974 Me Charbonneau devenait le représentant de Jean-Paul Daigle.A son enquête.le procureur de la Couronne.Me Claude Blanchard.demandait au juge une peine de quinze années de pénitencier, car il nota que l'accusé était sur une période de probation de deux ans au moment où le crime eut lieu.11 fit également l'énoncé de certaines accusations déjà portées.contre l'accusé, Daigle.L'avocat de défense, Me Charbonneau, demanda une peine de 7 ou 8 ans d'emprisonnement.car son client n'avait pas été I'instigateur du crime commis, mais plutôt une circonstance ou instrument, L'avocat de Daigle nota toutefois que ce dernier avait grandement collaboré lors de l'engête policière qui amena l'arrestation des deux personnages impliqués dans le crime.Après avoir entendu les diverses suppositions des procureurs.le juge Maurice Perron donnait une sentence de dix ans de pénitencier à Jean-Paul Daigle, soit un point milieu entre les deux demandes.Jean-Paul Daigle était toujours le mèême:l'expression de sa figure ne varia pas.Il était vêtu comme à l'ordinaire tel que tout le monde avait l'habitude de le voir.LE CRIME: Le crime survint dans la soirée du 2 octobre dernier à la résidence de M.Lionel Brisebois.Ce dernier était attaqué par deux personnages, Jean-Paul Daigle et un jeune d'âge mineur.Le but était le vol, mais la conséquence fut le meurtre.Jean-Paul Daigle frappa trois fois a la téte de la victime avec un baton de baseball.Un troisième personnage.Yves Brisebois, était dans une automobile et attendait les deux autres types; ce dernier comparut en cour dernièrement et il recevait une sentence de 5 ans d'emprisonnement.Après l'arrestation de trois personnages, une enquête du coroner fut tenu à Huntingdon le 24 ocrobre dernier.Alors, le docteur Georges Lefebvre de Huntingdon remettait un verdict de négligence criminelle contre les trois types.Ensuite.c'était au tour de la justice de prendre en main la direction de tout cela.\\ VOL.19 \u2014 No.3 LE GLEANER HUNTINGDON, QUEBEC MERCREDI, LE 8 JANVIER 1975 ) la gazette \u201cPRIX 20¢ e coordonnateur nommé Un texte de Cyril Alary Dernièrement.le comité provisoire du Centre Local de Services Communautaires pour le secteur de Huntingdon, Ormstown et St- Chrysostome.annonçait la nomination de M.Gilles Tardif au poste de coordonnateur du CLSC pour la première année d'existence.C'est en effet ce que nous déclarait peu avant la periode des fêtes le président du CLSC, Me.Richard Alary de Hun- tingdon.Gilles Tardif était auparavant un des deux animateurs-analystes engagés pour la période d'information et de recherche sur toute la région desservie par le Centre Local.M.Tardiff occupera le poste pour la première année, et son bureau est situé au sein même du nouvel édifice construit dernièrement sur la rue Chateauguay à Hun- tingdon.Tout d'abord.le comité de sélection avait rejeté les premières demandes faites pour le poste de coordonnateur.Vu que cette mise en candidature avait coûté beaucoup d'argent,le comité provisoire crut bon de faire la nomination d'un coordonnateur, moyennant l\u2019approbation du Ministère des Affaires Sociales de la province de Québec.On arrêta le choix sur Gilles Tardif, car ce dernier avait tout simplement fait de l'excellent travail dans le secteur à titre d'animateur.Selon les propos recueillis auprès du coordonnateur Tardif, l'ouverture de I\u2019 édifice en ce qui concerne les services n'est pas encore réglée, mais certains services pourraient être mis sur pied dans les semaines à venir.Pourtant sa nomination au poste de coordonnateur doit assurer en somme le démarrage, afin qu'au début du mois de juin prochain le premier programme fonctionnel soit vraiment mis sur papier.Gilles Tardif nota que beaucoup de travail fut fait Message du maire Pilon Voici une rétrospective du maire Claude Pilon de Huntingdon: L'année 1974 qui vient de se terminer mérite .qu'ensemble.on examine ce qui s'est passé à Hun- tingdon, et plus spécialement dans le domaine municipal.Si les années 1972 et 1973 ont été à Huntingdon des périodes où l\u2019on a vu des projets d'envergure se réaliser en l'occurence la complexe municipal rue Prince et l'Arena Régional avec le concours des municipalités environnantes, l'année 1974 a été pour notre ville une année de refonte de règlements municipaux et de consolidation.Qu'il suffise de mentionner que votre Conseil Municipal a procédé à une refonte complète du règlement de construction qui datait des années '40; ce règlement a nécessité de votre Conseil et spécialement du Comité de Construction et de Zonage Ormstown fait honneur au Sud-Ouest: plusieurs heures de travail et d'étude.Nous avons procédé également à la revision complète du règlement des taxes d'Affaires afin de le rendre plus équitable et plus ouvert à la période que nous vivons; l'ancien règlement datait également des années \u201840, Pour le commun des mortels cetle refonte de reglements municipaux peut sembler minime.mais je dois vous dire que les deux règlements ensemble nécessitent environ 200 pages de rédaction et notre greffier y a mis une somme de travail énorme.L'année 1974 a vu également continuer dans notre ville un développement domiciliaire déjà amorcé en 1973; c'est donc dire que les argents dépensés par votre Conseil pour l'installation des services d\u2019eau et d'égout dans les parties Ouest et Nord de la ville n'auront pas été en vain.Cependant on peut dire que l'anné 1974 aura été pour la Conseil l'occasion de mettre sur pied le projet qui s\u2019avérera le plus important pour votre ville depuis les 150 ans qu'elle existe à savoir la modernisation et I'agrandissement de l'usine de Filtration: ce projet qui aurait du être réalisé depuis de nombreuses années selon les dires du Ministère des Affaires Municipales de Québec ne peut plus être repoussé et votre Conseil doit y faire face et non se faufiler vis à vis ce problème des plus importants.Nous avons procédé à l'ouverture des soumissions et vous l'avez lu sans doute, il en coûtera au-delà de $3,000,000.c'est beaucoup d'argent et votre Conseil en est conscient: c\u2019est pourquoi ,nous avons des pourparlers avec les instances supérieures du Gouvernement provincial pour réaliser ce projet dans les meilleurs intérêts de la population de la ville de Huntingdon et de la région.(Suite à la page 12) Jean-Claude Beaulieu remporte le concours soya Lors de la dernière journée de la Semaine du Cultivateur dans la région du Richelieu, on grand gagnant provincial du concours de l'Opération- Soya 1974.Cette année, il s'agit d'un producteur de la région agricole du sud-ouest de la belle province: En effet, M.Jean-Claude Beaulieu d'Ormstown se voyait attribuer les grands honneurs.M.Lionel Lachance.directeur du Service des productions végétables au Ministère de l'Agriculture du Québec, remit alors les divers prix.Le lauréat s'est également mérité une plaque-souvenir offerte par la compagnie Agrabec.Cette compagnie était d\u2019ailleurs représenté par son vice-président, M.James G.Ladden et par M.Gilles Santerre qui avait auparavant entretenu les participants du marché du soya.À titre de producteur de soya de l\u2019année 1974, Jean- Claude Beaulieu a dévoilé certaines de ses recettes dans la culture du soya.Il aurait utilisé la variété Vansoy enregistrée qu'il aurait semée le 26 mai dernier, obtenant ainsi des rendements exceptionnels de l'ordre de 42 minots à l'acre.On sait que le rendement moyen au Québec se situe aux environs de 25 minots a l\u2019acre.Dans les régions agricoles du Richelieu et du sud-ouest de la belle province, où l'on trouve environ 90% des superficies ensemencées en soya au Québec, les producteurs qui ont réussi à se hisser aux deuxième, troisième et parfois quatrième places de l'épreuve régionale ont également été honorés.Bernard et Antonio Grange.en équipe.se classèrent au second rang au niveau provincial: ces derniers sont de la région sud-ouest de la belle ps province.Pour le concours régional du sud-ouest.Gilles Isabelle et Romain Montpetit se classèrent respectivement troisième et quatrième.L'Opération-Sova 1974: un succès De l'avis des principaux représentants du ministère.M.Lionel Lachance et M.Bernard re Sur cette photo.nous apercevons, de gauche a droite, M.Jean-Guy Charbonneau, coordonateur de la région agricole du Sud-Ouest de Montréas.M.Réjean Leduc qui a participé au succès du lauréat en lui prodiguant de précieux conseils.M.Lionel Lachance qui remet à Mme et à M.© Prieur qui a présidé l'Opération-Soya 1974, cette dernière a remporté un grand succès puisque les superficies en culture ont passé de 2.000 à 5.000 acres cette année.Le succès de l'Opération- Soya tient également au fait que plusieurs agriculteurs ont pu ainsi se familiariser avec les techniques et les exigences de la culture du soya et ce, autant par la tenue des concours de production et des visites de parcelles de démonstration que par l'action vigilante du personnel agronomique en région.On a d'autre part invité les agriculteurs à augmenter leurs superficies en culture et à réaménager leurs productions afin qu\u2019en 1975, les superficies consacrées Jean-Claude Beaulieu le prix qu'ils se méritent pour s'être classés au premier rang des concours régionaux de soya.ainsi que M.Jean-Louis Dagenais, conseiller en grande culture dans la région gagnante.au soya atteignent les 15,000 acres au Québec.Argument a l'appui, M.Prieur a enfin souligné que le soya est une plante de grande valeur qui répond aux besoins immenses en protéines requises pour l'alimentation animale et qu'il est possible de cultiver au Québec Le soya est donc une plante dont la culture est rentable; aux agriculteurs revient alors la décision d'en produire en grande quantité.Les INOCULANTS Rappelons finalement que plusieurs conférenciers, entre autres le Dr Lucien Bordeleau de la Station de recherches de Ste-Foy et M.Lionel Lachance.ont abordé le sujet de l'inoculation de graines de soya.L'inoculation des graines de soya est un procédé par lequel on peut facilement augmenter les rendements et la qualité du produit sans pour autant augmenter les coûts de production, à la condition toutefois que les inoculants soient de bonne qualité.À ce dernier chapitre.M.Lachance a annoncé que les agriculteurs qui participeront en 1975 aux concours de soya se verront remettre.par le ministère de l'Agriculture.des inoculants en quantité suffisante pour traiter une superficie en culture de 10 acres, ceci afin de vérifier, en grand champ.les lignées prometteuses de Rhizobium mises au point par les chercheurs dans le secteur deputs le jeune historique du Centre Local de Services Communautaires de Hun- tingdon.La prise de conscience des problemes de la région fut un point majeur du travail accompli depuis le tout début: maintenant, selon M.Tardif, les gens devront étre en mesure de chercher eux-méme des solutions a leurs problèmes.M.Tardif expliqua qu'il restait beaucoup a faire car il existait une certaine incertifude genérale au sein de la région.nouveau coor- des ten\u201d exprima que le Centre Local de Services Communautaires était un outil de travail, et qu'il n'aurait pas de services phénoménaux dès le départ.Indirectement, (Suite à la page 12) M.Gilles Tardif, coordonateur Des rencontres eurent lieu pour le textile Un rencontre d'importance avait lieu avant la période des Fêtes dans le domaine du textile.M.Brady, vice président de la Dominion Textiles, lors d'un dîner-causerie à Valleyfield, mentionnait aux journalistes présents le travail ardu du Conseil Syndical-Patronal.Le 12 décembre dernier, ce conseil de divers responsables de l\u2019industrie du textile au Canada.rencontrait une vingtaine de députés qui représentent des circonscriptions dites de \u201ctextiles\u2019\u2019 pour un échange de vues.En plus du groupe des dirigeants de l'Institut canadien des textiles, assistaient à la réunion des représentants de syndicats tels que la Fédération canadienne des Travailleurs du Textile (CSN), de l'Union des travailleurs du textile d'Amérique, des Uuvriers- Unis du Textile d'Amérique, et environ 22 députés de circonscriptions où vivent de nombreaux travailleurs du textile.La discussion à porte surtout sur le flot des im portations en provenance de pays asiatiques où les salaires sont (rès bas, importations qui causent beaucoup d'ennuis à l'industrie et à ses employés.On a fait des représentations au gouvernement au sujet de cinq secteurs de l'industrie - tissus de filament syn thétiques grande largeur, tissus de tricots doubles et de tricots rectilignes, tissus de polyester-coton, tissus de filaments de polyester et de laine peignee secteurs particulièrement éprouvés.Une enquête aupres de 19 compagnies démontre qu'en ces derniers trois mois il y à eu 3,320 mises à pied.soit 14.6% des em ployés, et que les heures de travail des ernployés restés à l'oeuvre ont baissé de 16%.L'industrie compte en tout environ 100,000 em ployés d'une douzaine de catégories; presque toutes sont affectées par les importations, mais pas aussi gravement que celles que l'on vient de mentionner.Le volume des im portations en provenance de l'Asie, et les prix ex- trémement bas des marchandises offertes au Canada, sont la cause principale des difficultés de l'industrie.Dans plusieurs cas, les prix de ces importations sont très inférieurs aux coûts canadiens variables de production, exclusion faite de toute dépenses générales el des profits.M Jack Armstrong, président de l\u2019Institut canadien des Textiles déclare \u2018Notre politique relativement généreuse d'importation ne doit pas faire de nous le dépotoir du monde en tempsdecrise.A long terme, ni le consommateur canadien ni le producteur étranger ne peuvent en bénéficier.Nous espérons qu'il y aura plusieurs réunions du genre au cours des quatre prochaines an nées Le Education des Adultes Venez vous informer Venez vous informer et vous inscrire à la mouvelle session d'hiver 1973.Les responsables du Service de l'Education des Adultes de la commission scolaire régionale Salaberry vous invitent a venir les rencontrer les 14.15 et 16 janvier 1975 de 5h pm.à 9h pm.à la polyvalente Baie Saint François.Si vous habitez la région de Huntingdon, rendezvous a la polyvalente Arthur-Pigeon les 15 et 16 Janvier 1975 entre 7h p.met 9h p.m.et pour la région d'Ormstown le lieu d'in- Attention La bibliothèque contient Forces etc.désirez.de lecture Vous étes invités a venir nous rencontrer lundi le 13 janvier 1975 à l'école polyvalente Arthur-Pigeon pour une réunion d'information sur l'ouverture de sa bibliothèque à la population une grande quantité de périodiques [45 abonnements ] dont Actualité, Châtelaine, Paris-Match, Les volumes sont très intéressants pour les adultes autant que pour les jeunes et d\u2019une très grande variété.Vous pourrez soit, les consulter sur place ou les apporter chez vous si vous le Venez mieux vous informer lundi prochain!

c'est le problème du pont.A quelques reprises, lorsque le pont fut mentionné, des personnes de ces deux municipalités mentionnèrent la possiblitié de se regrouper avec le CLSC de Huntingdon en recevant possiblement des services à Ormstown.Mais, on se définit toutefois avec Valleyfield.Le pont est un problème pour les gens de St.Louis et de St.Stanislas, mais pas plus que cela.M.Lalonde mentionna que, par le suite, il se pourrait qu\u2019il y ait un certain découpage de territoire, mais il nota que cette possibilité était mince; la distance jouant ainsi un rôle majeur.Le grand programme fonctionnel du CLSC de Valleyfieid ne serait pas prêt avant la fin de l'année 1975, mais le tout pourrait quand même fonctionner grace a des services precis et cités comme primordiaux.M.Lalonde précisa en disant que le Ministère pousse sur l\u2019idée qu'il n\u2019y ait pas de laps de temps creux ou mort, soit une période de temps avec aucun service donné à la population.Or.à cela, Marcel Lalonde déclara qu\u2019il pourrait y avoir des services donnés a la population avant lemois de juin prochain.Ces services seraient pour tout le secteur, et non pas seulement pour le centre urbain.M.Lalonde exprima qu'il n'y avait pas de date précise pour l'échéance de certaines étapes de travail, mais qu'ilprocédait plutôt de semaine en semaine.\u2018Le tout marche sur des roulettes\u2019, de dire Marcel © O BO-JEANS ENRG.Nous avons des jeans et des pantalons en velours côtelé JEANS DELAVES Co LE CULOTTIER H.I, Ss .35 ST.LAURENT VALLEYFIELD gee 7) SEMENCES PESTICIDES Ste.Barbe EN VRAC ET EN SAC MAIS - CEREALES - MILLAGE POUR TOUTES CULTURES DRAINS PLASTIC ET TERRE CUITE GILLES VALLEE INC.ENGRAIS DE FERMES Tél.373-4625 POUR NOTRE SPORT D'HIVER FAVORI QUE PEUT-ON CHOI SIR DE MIEUX?SPECIAL SUR HABITS ET MOTO-NEIGES EN STOCK FRANKLIN CENTRE FAILLE & FRERE .TEL: 827-2556 Une assistance plus nombreuse que d'habitude et l'ambiance des Fêtes ont fait de la dernière assemblée des Filles d'Isabelle le 17 décembre dernier une soirée très agréable.De jolis paquets bien emballés attiraient tous les regards vers les deux sapins, pendant que l'on procédait rondement à la partie sérieuse de l'assemblée et il était facile de deviner que le Père Noël n'était pas loin.Notre dévoué aumônier, ayant été obligé de présider une assemblée avant la nôtre, nous arriva vers la fin de la réunion.Notre soeur Thérèse Walsh, ayant confectionné un magnifique centre de Lalonde.Rien pour le moment ne peut empecher le déroulement du travail, mais il semble que le tout fonctionne à merveille;
