Letters to Dear Mr. James, Dennms and Readers:1 Briefly to your first com- ment of the Aug. l8th issue: If our readers' disenchantment with us is as great as the conflicting opinions and ru- mors of 'the, discourse' be- tween Councillor Lyall and -Mayor Rickard, is to the public, maybe we had better stop whîle ahead. Whatever Mr. Lyall and the general public feel they are 1 __Waré of, regarding Eldorado, the fact remains that contro- versial as they realize they are here, they do keep lurking about, doing things on the quiet, with varîous levels of government, They know quite well by now the dissenting attitude of the majority of 'neopie in this area. Panticu- nly those Who have spent -cime and thoughtful study of facts pertaining to Nulear, Expansion, Eldorado's, and Hydro's ambitions here and the effects of those ambitions on our environment. Objec- tions, from here have been LOUD AND CLEAR. Democratically speaking, I dèo not agree our Mayor has the right to withhold informa- tion of negotiations on-such a touchy subject as Eldorado, from bis constîtuents. Yes, Anne Cowman does a good job, She is conscientious andi stubborn about learning ail the facts of anything seemingly ambiguous and airing it. The hockey clubs and winter sport fans wiIl not çheer Anne on, if there are no facilîties for skatinig by the time the season opens. You DO have problems don't you? Just awhile ago, parents were at recreational council, demanding parks for healthful pastimes for kids in the summer. I don't know if it is up to the Public Works Dept. to pull weeds, Meanwhile, why not set some of those energetic kids clearing the sidewalks of weeds? Healthfully, construc- tive and tax-dollan-saving! Yes, for ail the years 'the mili-rate stayed do\vn low', the sidewalks cnumbled, the noads broke up and the poor Town begân to look "'down" too. Deplorable. ' Stili we can't have every- thing donc at once. t isn't reasonable-- no genîi, you know. Would YOU like a smelly industry close to your develop- ment and home? A matter of values again. There are many industries, we could do with that would take up the slack of mployment without ad- scly affecting environ- mient. Where? Well, how about II'MMM OIRK BRINKMAN Scugog St., 623,3621 L the àEditor' in Mac already cesignated Industnial zone? Oshawa îs welcome to 'hog' the innocuÔus industries. Bowmanvîlle has always been the "hub" and heant of urbanity for- the smaller municipalities adjacent, who though wishing SOME devel- opment of their own, still prefer Bowmanville to stay 'the heart' of the district for them as it grows to its designated potential. Growing in sucb a way that it wlll be a pleasant place for them to come and possibly attracting others, who now rush through Town at 50-60 per, the faster to reach Peterborough, Cobourg or Port Hope. "The bickering", you refer to' Dennis, is undoubtedly the neéessary talk and considera- tion that must be given to Planning in such a large vaiegated Township as this. Without it and moving fast, more of those precious tax- dollars you mention might be fruitlessly used. If, (and God forbid it should be) you are left with "a snowfilled-cattle-drift" in the tunnel, I suggest - - milk and beef pnîces being what they are, Waverley Gardens might lump together buying some cows, teach the kids to ride bare-back and so to school on- time. Honestly, is it so bad? Wishing I had youn district map, I thank you for YOUR time. Readers, forgive us for wasting yours. Sincerely, Mary Morris. P.S. Please stop 'buttering The Editor', already the iak situation is better!!

Specifically, we are said to, be claiming inaccunately that the sales finance and con- sumer boan associations have advocated a retura to a ceiling on bank interest rates. It is difficult to uaderstand the rcasoning for any such complaint sînce the matter is cleanly detailcd in their own ,bief to9-the mi-ç!isterof Finane: "The Bank Act pnior to 1967 contained a maximum interest rate that could be changed by banks and this rate implicitly set the level of risk that banks could take in their investments. The rate- risk 'limitation of six per cent was removed fromn the Bank Act la the 1967 revisions. "We urgently rtequest ne- examination of the prnciple .inderlyiag the rate-risk limi- tation previously contained witbin the Bank Act with a view that it be ne-imposed on banks on the morepractical and flexible basis «f.percent- age spread above the average Treasury Bill rate over an appropriate span of time." These statements can oaly be read as supponting retura' of the iaterest ceiling. If tbey have now been rejected by the finance and consumer boan companies they should say so. J. H.

Last year, Canada Man- powen didn't have a student centre in Bowmanvillc. This meant that employers and students had to apply to the Oshawa office. Only eight employers in the anea served hy the Bowmiaa- ville manpower 'office ap- plied to bine students in Oshawa la 1975. So, the 22 employers who uscd the service this year represent a lange increase. "We thiak the proximity was the neason for the increase la employers," Gloria Murrant said. Office Closed Although the student man- power -office la Bowmanville wouad up its operation last Tbursday, Miss Murnant said last week that the Oshawa office will be open until the end of the montb. She said students fnom the area who are still looking for a -job can go to the Oshawa office. And evea though it is late la the year as fan as studeat job hunting is concerned, Gloria Munnant said that jobs are still available. But she said most of tbem involve casual labour such as grass cutting aad window washing.

Section Two The Canadian Statesman, Bowmianville, August 25, 1976 3 Top Priority o evc Has Marked KwnsCu A 15-yean histony of service in the community has come to an end witb the announcement of the Bowmanville Kiwanis Club's decision to disband. Lastl week, the board of directors deçided to put the club into a non-meeting status because of a declining mcm- bership record.' The club began in Bowman- ville in 1961 with the help of the Westmount Kiwanîs Club of Oshawa and F. C. Hutton as .the founding president. In the past, members were involved in'projects such as the building of the swimîmiag pool in Memonial Park, co- operating in the first shared "inter-club" effort of 'al Bowmanville's service clubs. Another Ilpnoject the club took on was the renovation of Jackman Cneek Park which tbey also ran duning, the summer from about 1965 to 1970. The club was also active for the Heant Fund until 1974, undertaking the task of can- The 4,000,000 kilowatt coal- fired electric genierating sta- tion at Nanticoke, now in partial operation, is sclieduled for completion in 1977.

Representatives of the local club were closely tied in with the formation of a Big Brothers program in the area, In recent years during municipal, provincial and federal elections, local resi- dents werç invited to hear from their representatives in a Meet Your Candidate night offered'by the club. A number of the çlub's programs in the past ýwere directed toward young people. As well as providing team sweaters for various sports in the area, the members organ- ized a Girls Minor Softball League, played floor hockey with a group of boys from the Pine Ridge School and coach- cd team sports in the town also. Initially the Annual Santa claus Parade in Bowmanville was organized by the Kiwanis until it was turned over to the Chamber of Commerce.
