According to aaaialant county Public Affairs director Lou Bodia, Wildwood Mayor Guy Muiiani's propooal to give vacationing Canadians discounts is creating "confusion, ill feelings and havoc" for county businessmen and tourisls. He said the county has always been opposed to giving special treatment to certaii tourist groups. At a ptfss conference last Friday, Mr. Rodia said that for Mayor Muziani to announce any discount program without unanimods support of the business community was premature, and that his recent trip to Montreal has hurt 20 years of promotional efforts in Canada by the
county.

She also said she never personally received the letter allegedly asking her to step down or be ousted from office at the organization’s August
.meeting.
Although she won’t be at the Wednesday night session because she’s vacationing in Ohio, Mrs. de la Cretaz has submitted a letter to the Association spelling out her posiUon. It is expected that Taxpayers trustee Peg Spencer will request no action be taken on the issue until at least Sep-
tember.
Questioned last Thursday on the matter that could widen the apparent rift within thfe-Association, Clark declined to make any comments. She refused to reveal who or how many Association members actually are calling for the president s resignation, acknowledging only that she had no part in writing the letter.

The resolution was opposed by Freeholder Gerald Thornton who argued that county taxpayers shouldn't have to pick up the tab when cuts are being made at the state and federal levels. He also noted that enrollment at both the Vo-Tech and the Career Center is down. CAL Agreement The Cape-Atlantic League last week agreed to adhere to a state mandate and accept all teams in the South Jersey Conference. — A move that creates one large interscholastic league.

competition imbalance.
