H. D. Tresidder, representative, vi REPRESENTATIVES IN US. M Powers and Stone, Inc, New York and Chicago, B ir w i, ® MONDAY, NOVEMBER 28, 1927 SUBWAY COMMITTEE PROGRESS, Vv! » Friday night's meeting of the Council a subway committee prepared an interesting ! yeport for presentation to that body at its 8 meeting last night. The outstanding fea- ture, perhaps, is the fact that a solution is ® advanced for the problem of access to the a proposed new C,N.R, station which would be ¢ 'erected north of the railway lines, The plans prepared suggest connecting the sta- tion with a loading platform between the ¢ east and west bound tracks by a short tun- nel. This would allow passengers to reach ! the trains without crossing either track, A sfurther step would be to provide a shelter for | the loading platform and thus protect both * arriving and departing passengers from in- I clement weather, One of the vital points of the subway pro- posal is its bearing on the question of a new ' O.N.R. station to which Oshawa, with its {ize and industrial importance, is clearly en- © titled, The executive of the railway has " met the recent negotiations for a subway in ¥ a most cordial spirit, The Council can do no : less than reciprocate, As to the matter of financing the venture, = it is apparent that the major share of the cost will have to be borne by the railways concerned, Taking the new station into con- sideration, the proportion could not be less i than three shares for the railway to one for ~ the city, The final proportion would prob- 4 ably work out much more favourably to the city, The subway committee was erroneously but innocently reported on Saturday as plane ning to ask for a plebiscite on the construec- tion of the subway, As pointed out at last night's Council meeting this is altogether unlikely, The railway's engineers have yet to submit a report of costs which will be checked by the city engineer, If, in the Council's opinion, the proportion arrived at is favourable to the City, the actual order that the work be proceeded with would come from the Dominion Board of Railway Commission- ers upon whose recommendation the Federal subsidy of $25,000 as a maximum for the elimination of level crossings depends, A striking fact brought out at last night's Council session was the statement that the C.N.R., after investigation, is quite prepared to proceed with the subway development, They were at first inclined to view the matter as no longer pressing, but the check-up of 5 4 traffic during a week in September by The Oshawa Daily Times, as well as other ron- siderations ably presented by the committee and city engineer, have, it is stated, chown the desirability of the work's being carried through, CHRISTMAS CHEER COMMITTEE The Star that made a pathway to the cradle of a Little Child no longer shines in the firmament as each year brings the Christmas season nearer; but in Oshawa the radiant influence of Christian charity is to be found in citizens' interest in the cause of the needy and the claims of childhood upon that sentiment which demands no empty stockings on Christmas morning and no bare tables to haunt the happy gatherings of those more fortunately placed, To that end, the Christmas Cheer Fund Committee met Friday night, elected a new board of officers, and laid its plans for the coming campaign. The retirement of J. C. Young as president of the association can bring no less than general expression of appreciation for his efforts in that post. The same applies to the work of Charles Wilcox as the :commit- lee's zealous secretary. The appointment of George Hezzlewood \and J. Graves as president and secretary re- spectively to fill their places merely supports Mr. Young's reason for resigning, which was hat the executive should be changed now d then because of the fact that this city is blessed with so many men to whom lead: ership is a habit, Details for this year's campaign are vet ; to be worked out, It is gratifying that pre- Br Bminzgy revorts indicate greatly improved as an THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES. = conditions, less poverty, and hence less who will require assistance. Yet there will be some, and it is fortunate for the grace of Charity that there is. What would the world be like if there was no one to be sorry for? Being human, we would merely be sorry for ourselves and that is the most pitiful estate possible. There is life's truest joy in bringing hap- piness to those whose doors are insecurely guarded against indigence, and to know that our generosity will fill an otherwise empty stocking for Christmas morning is a viear- jous delight which adds to the zest of living, More, there are always ill-clad children to outfit. Such work is not only charity but life saving, and every child-life saved for Can- ada is a patriot service of the first order, LIQUOR STORE MANAGEMENT di After due consideration, W. A, Hare has announced that he will not accept the man- agement of the liquor store to be opened in this city shortly, His reasons, as stated, are mostly of a private nature, but one of them was "that he didn't want to get mixed up in the business," His tentative appoint- ment was, as should be, a case of the job seeking the man and not the other wdy about. Mr. Hare's withdrawal, accordingly, will add to the sense of foreboding which citizens of Oshawa whose wishes in the mat- ter were ignored entertain, Mr. Hare was entirely richt in viewing the post in the light of a possible civic duty, The policy of a strong man at the head of the Liquor Control Board, as enunciated by Pre- mier Ferguson, implies the need of strong * men in charge of the stores wherever they may be opened for business, To have a man seek the however expedient it may cal standpoint, The triple curse of the liquor traffic on this continent has always been in the hold it managed to obtain on parties and the organs of public opinion, Liquor has never heen content to do busi- ness on business principl Here, as re- gards the opening of a liquor store, it had to resort to a secret petition, and the shame of it is that--whatever the C ission may gay to the contrary anonymous de- mand of two thousand un! addled this eity with something wi epresenta- tive opinion of Osh: loes not favour, The withdrawal of 17r tainly in- timates that he, at least, found after inves- tigation that liquor st magement would not be a public service, That, however, will bring little comfort to su ters of temper- ance principles unless someon ually de- voted to high ideals of citizenszhi be found to take his place. st is bad policy be from a politi- w--rthat CRY LEVEL CROESI The tragedy at the Li of the Canadian Pacific Railw brought home to Oshawa th menace which exists in ev nm Road crossing on Friday on of the vel crossing, crossings is as much a part of a city's duty, joined with the responsibility of the Gov- ernments and railways concerned, as the pro- viding of police protection its citizens, Official Oshawa, unfortunately, has not hitherto seemed to regard its duty either in the matter of level crossings or police pro- tection with notable seriousness, A partial remedy for the Ritson Road crossing is-obyious, Namely, grade senara- tion of Simcoe Street South at the C,N.R, intersection, That street already crosses the C.P.R. tracks on a viaduct, but the good thus gain- ed so far as Cedardale and the Lake district is concerned, is cancelled by the C.N.R. tracks which cross it at street level, Eventually, with the city's growth, the easterly level crossings will be eliminated, They are, however seing problems at this time despiic 2y"s deplorable ac- cident, : To make Simcoe Street a real thoroughfare to the Lake and free of traffic delays and level crossing dangers is, however, a prob- lem that should be solved at the earliest pos- sible moment, ior EDITORIAL NOTES, The dogs of war seldom drao home any- thing exeept a deficit.
