Ibe CORRESPONDENCE Editor, V West Van News. Dear Sir i--We were very much interested in the courage- ous letter forwarded to your paper last week from Mr. Watt concerning "Reductions." As this has been thought of and aptly expressed by a goodly section of our people we think it will be taken care of by our very efficient Reeve snd Council It is not a case of salaries or wages these days; it is a "job" which the fortunate ones have. I think the poorly paid work cannot be shaven but all the. other municipal staffs of people should gladly offer to accept acut from Reeve and Council down to the fair wage class, as all cities and municipalities have done recently and property own- ers and ratepayers find it ex- ceptionally hard. By the great help in this wsy, we may be ableto continue in our stable, envi- able way. Yours for West Vancouver, ht BULKLEY. S. P. OF C. NOTES At 3 p.m. on Sunday, the 19th instant, the Open Forum will begin its season at the Holly- burn Theatre. The object of this Forum is to give the people of West Vancouver an opportun ity to hear the best current opinion on questions of the dsy. Speakers will deal with such topics as "What Labor Expects of the Church," "Is Socialism the Remedy for Present Condi- tions'?" "Technocracy," "The Truth About Russia," "xtlonetary Reform," and other subjects of absorbing interest. 'Ihe speaker for the coming Sunday will be E. Hougham, member of the Vancouver Trades and Labor Council His subject will be 'What Does the Church Stand for Today?" Mr. Hougham has spoken to large audiences in the principal city churches on this topic and has aroused great int- erest by his challenging ques- tions and suggestions. After the lecture by Mr. Hougham on Sunday afternoon the meeting will be thrown open for discus- sion. Time WIII be sfiowed for speakers who wish to discuss the various aspects of the ques- tion.. Questions from the audi- ence «dll be answered during the succeeeding period. It is hoped that all interested in finding a solution to our present social and economic problems will sup- port the Forum by attending and making it possible to bring other prominent speakers and thinkers to West Vancouver in the immediate future. CORRESPONDENCE The Editor, West Van News. Dear Sir:--Will you kindly give the following space in your valuable paper and oblige: Municipal Salaries I heartily endorse Mr. J. T.Watt's suggestion re Municipal salaries. The average taxpayer hss re- ceived from twenty to forty percent reduction off his income, and have to strain to the limit to meet their obligations. The municipal staff should have no objection to such 0 re- duction, for they have very fair salaries, and living in the muni- cipality have no travelling ex- penses to meet. A 20/v reduction effective January 31, 1933, should be put in force to include sll depart- ments, and I am sure the Reeve and Council would wish to be in- cluded. We are passing through very serious times, and all ratepayers should refrain from calling on the municipality for service, for in many instances the ratepayer could take care of the cost of his requirements after approval was given. J. M. Larnie. W. C. T:U. The IVest Vancouver W.C.T. U. met Thursday p.m., February 9th, at the home of Mrs. Hib- berd, 16th Street.

Tisdall, Tuesday moved the ~ municipal staff from its head-~ quarters In Lynn Valley to the City Hallt West Fourth Street. District offfces are located on the second storey of the City Hall, while city administration is carried out on the main floor. Relief offices for both areas are situated in a small building Im- mediately west of the City Hall. Consolidation of the two ad- ministrations has many advant- ages and allows for substantial economy, Mr. Tisdall states. Ferry traffic during the first nine days of February shows 0 decline as compared with the corresponding period of 1982, the commissioner reports. Dur- ing that period city ferries car- ried 58,982 passengers and 9218 vehicles, as compared to 60,975 passengers and 10,515 vehicles in 1932. VANCOUVER ASKED TO TAKE NORTH VAN. PUI'ILS Commissioner C. E. Tisdall of North Vancouver, who has abol- ished home economics classes in North Vancouver schools in int- terests of economy, has asked Vancouver School Board to ac- cept seven students in this branch of study from his juris- diction. He states they wish to complete their school work by midsummer and offers to pay 810 per month for each student. Board members gave no defin- ite answer at their meeting Mon- day night, Trustee Tom Brooks remarking that Vancouver may have 300 students in a similar position before estimates are completed. He voiced disapprov- al of taking the North Vancou- ver pupils on the grounds that Vancouver should not bear the financial burden of the depart- ment of education at Victoria, which had reduced grants to the city system. Y. W. C. T. U. Members of the Y.W.C.T.U. met February 7th, at the home of Mrs. Hamilton, 21st and Argyle. The meeting was opened by members repeating the Temper- ance Pledge in unison, followed by the reading of the Crusade Psalm (146) and prayer. After a short business period several members gave interest- ing readings from the life of Frances E. Willard. The meeting closed with mem- bers repeating the Mizpah Bene- diction. A social half-hour was then enjoyed when the hostess assist- ed by Miss Sadie Secktinen served refreshments. Patronize the merchants in our Business Directory.
