Dear Editor:

With reference to “YOUR

SCHOOLS”? of March 9th_
presented by the North
Vancouver School Board,

although I am pleased to
receive information on
School Board activities I
would suggest that the final
paragraphs in the article on

the Budget are very mislead-

ing.

The figures shown for 1977
and 1976 indicate an increase
in Provincial Government
assistance not a decreasing
share as stated. |

The figure of 49.35% for
1972 is meaningless as this
was prior to the School
Trustees increasing the
Budget over and above the
maximum shared by Govern-

ment despite this increase.

‘Se gals. pro- us

= and the.
government feel confident:
that they have managed to—
_ suppress all future seal hunt -

Dear Editor:

_ Thank you sincerely for the
coverage in your newspaper,
regarding the apartment

managers, who deprived .so

many people of their rights,
to say ‘‘Yes or No’’ to the
.B.C. Heart Foundation vo-
lunteers.

My sincere thanks to, the
many pleasant and coopera-
tive managers, we certainly
need more of you in this
world.

being vejected by the elec-
torate in referendums.

This non-shared excess of
$4,408,410.00 is covered by
1978 Budget By Law No. 10
which required the vote of
two thirds of the’ School
Trustees, Government in its
wisdom having seen fit to
dispense with the referen-
dum in these cases.
