TO CON 1XLQI ord councillors will meet special session at 7 30 clock next Monday evening to consider the trustees request for the loan, which Ins hem presented In the form of a letter to the town council.

A prbal battle between Councillor C. Iv. Walton and Trustee George A. Scott, chairman of the tchool board finance committee is not unlikely to develop when the finance committee, headed by Mr. Scott appears before the full council to explain why the money ts needed.

Two months ago Mr. Walton was a member of a delegation appearing foie the trustees, and at that time Mr. S-ott reference to him as the would-be Mussolini of Ford City" resulted in a battle of words between the trustee and the councillor. Both parties to the duel intimated that hos'illties would not be forgotten when they next met in pubhc, and since that meeting wi'l take place Monday night, an encounter is anticipated. OV iPIT'L ACCOUNT In petitioning the council for a loan, the trustees explain that the money which should have gone toward the payment of the teachers il tries, out of the maintenance fund provided in this years school board estimates, has already been spent on capital account A list of 25 items of capital expenditure, ranging from 40 to 3.500 has been submitted tn support of the statement.

The suggestion of the trustees is that the council issue municipal debentures to realize the sum required Contending that if the procedure suggested is within the scope of the count il, it is at least very much out of the ordinary, the councillors have referred the matter to the town solicitor for decision, and have set Monday rights meeting to learn his opinion.

Those who are unable to attend are requested to in touch with Fresident Wakefted Tunnel and Bridge Will Bring Many More Vehicles, Belief Plans for an extensive program of paved provincial highways in Essex county, to relieve present traflie congestion on route two and provide a new through route from the Border to Chatham, in anticipation of vastly increased automobile trailic when the Windsor-Detroit tunnel is completed two vears lienee, are moving rapidly toward completion. BIG TRAFFIC SEEN Roused to action by traffic congestion between Maidstone and the Border last summer along the one arterial highway into which routes two and three merge at Maidstone, and in the expectation of as much as six times as much traffic following completion of the international bridge and tunnel and the operation of Increased ferry servire on the river. Border Cities and countv officials have been busily engaged for some days In drafting plans to provide more outlets from the Border. Two mam considerations and a number of minor objectives have been discussed.

Solution has been achieved It the search for a suitable channel along which traffic may be diverted from the bridgehead. Huron Line is to be widened and pavement will beextended to connect with the paved portion of the Talbot road, thus affording a through route from the bridgehead to Niagara Falls with connections at Maidstone with route two. Greater difficulties attach to the selection of a route to accommodate the great mass of automobile traffic entering Windsor through the tunnel. Two alternative routes, each designed lo create a new route, which would likely be known as route one, affording connection between the Border and the county line and on to Chatham, independent of route two, have leen agreed upon. Agreement has also been reached that the proposed new highway will pass to the north of route tw o.

FI RTJIER CONFERENCES Beyond agreement on these points, proponents of the scheme, the members of the county council highways committee, have not gone. Further conferences leading to the adoption of a general plan will be held this week or early next week. In the meantime, recommendations from officials of the provincial highways department as to the best routes to define, have been sought. First of the two plans before the committee is a suggestion that the proposed new highway follow the River Thames and the shore of Lake Ft. Clair from Chatham to Pamcourt and from there to Belle Paver, where the highway would join Tecumsoh road to enter the Border Cities.

A paved county highway now exists from Chatham to Paincourt. while pavement is also found front the Border to Belle River. The gap between Paincourt and Belle River, approximating 20 miles, would have to be paved, and the entire route taken over by the highways department as a provincial highway, if this route is adopted. Il MILE CAP The other route would link Chatham and the Border by way of Tilbury, also joining Tecumseh road at Belle River. Pavement is laid from Chatham to Tilburv.

and from the Border Cities to within 11 miles of Tilbury, leaving a gap of 11 miles to CONTINUED OX' PGE 7 Who Told You That?
