City Council 10 to 3 Endorses Agreement Wit THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, AUGUST 28, 1928 PAGE THREE To Obtain Plans For Entire Unit of Civic Buildings on Bagot St. Council Reverses Decision in Regard to Submitting . Three By-laws to Ratepay- ers -- Purchase of Cowan Property Left in Abeyance Until Agreement is Pre pared and Accepted Reversing 'the decision which they arrived at about two weeks ago, the pity council last night decided not to wubmit to the vote of the ratepayers any of the three questions which they had prepared in committee of the hole, regarding the purchase of the sind property and the erection of y city hall. The city property com- mittee were, however, instructed to abtain complete plans for an entire unit of city buildings, consisting of sity hall and fire and police buildings, on the present city property at Bagot snd Metcalfe streets. ie The three questions which it had been formerly intended to submit to » vote of the taxpayers, were, first, the purchase of the Cowan property; second, the building of the city hall as one unit; and third, the building of the city hall on either the Cowan property, the Bagot-Metcalfe street site, or the Simcoe-Richmond street site. Under this clause, which was finally struck out of the report, the city property committee were in- structed to get plans for the loca- tion of the city hall on all three sites, As soon as Chairman Morris pre- sented the report of the committee of the whole, relating to the erection] of a city hall, discussion commenced with an amendment that clause 2, calling for a vote of the ratepayers) 4 on the subject, be struck out. Alderman Carnell opposed the pur- chase of the Cowan property, saying that, instead of the original cost of $40,000, it would cost the city $150,- 000 if the city hall were erected on it, since it would involve the installa- tion of a separate heating plant and the employment of another caretaker, and the city would lose the assess- ment and revenue from the property, That the "noisy corner of Simcoe and Richmond streets should not be considered as a city hall site, was the contention of Alderman Stacey. The Bagot street property was bought for city purposes, and I would like to see a complete plan for the erection of a city hall, jail and fire hall, continued the alderman, adding that, if possible, he would prefer that the Memorial Park be left intact, That the present town hall at Rich mend and Simcoe streets be left out of the question, was also the opin- ion of Alderman Morris. While he thought all municipal buildings should be put on the Bagot street property, still the taxpayers should be given an SPpOFtUBiLY of voting on the purchase of the Cowan property, The mayor also agreed that all the municipal buildings should be put on the Metcalfe street property. The council was not satisfied that there were no restrictions against the Co- wan property, he added, "That is a good point. We have been considering purchasing the Co- wan property without a scrap of pa- per to work op, in a most unbusi- nesslike manner" interposed Alder- man Carnell, ' Alderman Swanson thought the Cowan property should be purchased for general Bupieinal purposes, al- though the city hall should be built on the Metcalfe street property. The report of the committee of the whole was then adopted, with clause 2 deleted. As approvd by the coun- cil, it contains these clauses. 'The city property be instructed to take the pecessary steps to obtain complete plans for an entire unit, Successful Children consisting of city hall, fire and police buildings, on the present city pro- ty adjacent to Simcoe, Bagot and etcalfe streets. "The amount of $500 be granted by the city council for plans for the fire and police buildings, be divided equ. ally between the four architects who submitted plans, "That arrangements be made by the city property committee for leasing the present office used by the police magistrate on the best possible terms as to rent and as to the right of the city to terminate. "That the city farm be leased for a further five years, subject to veser- vation for any lands required by the city." The report of the Fire Protection and City Property committee, which wag later adopted by the council, pro- vided that "in order to expediate the matter of civic buildings, that 'one architect be selected for the prepara- tion of plans for a complete unit program of fire, police and adminis- tration buildings.' THREE NEW HOMES ARE, AUTHORIZ Building Activity Remains Heavy Throughout the City Three new dwellings are to he built in the city, according to per- mits issued at the city hall yester- ay. There were six permits issued, totalling $11,100, . A $3800 six-room : b semi-hungalow is being built at 207 Roxborough avenue " E. A. Brown, 106 French street.

The local ladies won the first half of the schedule while Cheys won the second half earning the right to meet them. The Rovers play good ball and they should stand a fine chance of gaining the silverware. RECEIVES LIST OF % 0.5. AND BRITISH MANUFACTURERS C. of C, Secretary Gels a Response Preparatory to Canvassing Exporters Leon Frazer, secretary of the Oshawa Chamber of Commerce, an- nounced today the receipt from Ot- tawa of a list of 95 manufactured products which he made applica- tion for in connected with the plan for a systematic canvass of United States and British manufacturers, so that they might be influenced to open up branch plants in Can- ada. If any of these manufacturers do consider locating in the Domin- ion, they will take advantage of the preferential tariff existing through the British Empire, where a large percentage of the export products would be sent, The list shows that in 1926 and N27 for these 95 products alone Canada was indebted ta other countries to the amount of $242,- 000,000 of which 74 per cent was payable to the United States and 18 per cent to Great Britain, No item has been included which could not possibly he manufactur- ed in Canada, either from native resources developed, or as yet un- developed, or from importable raw or semi-manufactured materials, The attention of manufacturers and capitalists is invited to this list, blit it should be clearly under- stood that nothing 'is said that makes or might make the manu- facture of these products in Can- ada dificult or unprofitable, These conditons require careful inquiry into such economie factors as the raw material available in Canada, location of foreign supplies, freizht rates by sea and by land, patent rights, currency echange, fuel and water power tariff protection, do- mestie and foreign, wages and sup- ply of labor, population, location of technically trained personnel, Should a firm or individual de- sire seriously to study the prohlem relating to any of these -items, the Natural Resources Intelligence Ser- vice of the Department of the In- terior, Ottawa, is prepared to as- sist in any definite inquiries. The list itself is composed of a column for the product, with suc- cessive columns for figures relat- ing to that product, The tariff is dealt with fully, giving the item, hesides the rates of each product. The total imports are figuratively set down, the amount from the United States and Great Britain treated separately. The amount of exports in the pro- ducts outlined is given, the debit halance heing also noted. Remarks for each product are included in a column by itself, so that a com- plete survey is produced. There is no doubt but that through Information furnished the manufacturers from this list, the prospect will prove instrumental in causing more than one industry to be located in the Dominion, Behind the Dominion of Canada {tself, and the splendid work it will he doing for the country, there is the City of Oshawa, This city will pensfit greatly, it is hoped, and the in- formation sent out will provide ad- ditional attraction to any manu- facturing company deciding to open a branch plant in the Domin- fon.

An interesting relic in the form of an Anglican Bible and Prayer book, ever 150 years old has been brought to The Times' office by J. S. Rich- ardson of 204 Bond street east. The book was the property of Mr. Rich- Are not born but developed, ardson's grandfather and was brought to this country from Eng- land in 1808, and has been handed down until pow it is being kept by wo of Mr. Richardson's sisters, Miss Ada and Miss Elsie Richardson, of Bethany. ; The age of the book is well known by its time worn leaves and the ab- sence of a front cover which has been missing apparently for quite a number of years. The printing is of a style by itself while probably of great interest to musicians is the presence in the book of music which Has Rare Relic in Anglican Bible and Prayer Book, 150 Years Old, Was Brought to Canada from England in the Year 1808 was hand Jind by Mr. Richard- son's grandfather by means of the old fashioned quill pen. Thomas Richardson, the original owner of the book, lived in New- castle-on-the-Tyne in England and brought it with him when he came to this country as an early settler in 1808. He settled in the Township of Cavan, about 26 miles north of Port Hope and it was there in later years that his grandson, J. 8. Rich- ardson, actually saw him printing music into the book by means of a quill which he had prepared himself. Probably indicating the exact date in which the book was printed is an inscription on an inside cover bearing "London, MDCCLXI." The Roman numerals corespond for the year 1761 Exceptionally Fine Program ibid a wa Fair Oshawa Fajr which is to be held on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thurs- day, September Lith, 12th and 13th, with show days on the 12th and 13th, is provided with a splen- did program for the 1928 Fair. , The Prize List has been much improved with additional prize money, The admission to the Fair bas been decreased from 35 cents to 25 cents.

This t re- fers the clause concerning street paving back to the Board of Works to report at the next meeting of the council as follows: a. What pavements have been pe- titioned for, but not dealt with, b. What further pavements, if any, should be further dealt with. ¢. What streets should not be done in 1928, and why. In presetning the report of the Board of Works, Alderman Stacey, chairman, said that a further paving rogram was an absolute necessity or the economic development of the streets of Oshawa, The council went inta committee of the whole on the report with Al- derman Morris in the chair, Alderman Carnell, supporting Al- derman Stacey in the bid for a greaf- er paving program, said that $600,000 had already been spent on local im- provements, but that the council was just commencing to realize the ne- cessity for an enlarged and more thorough paving proposition, Deputations were very much in evidence in the council chamber be- ing present in connection with the paving problem. The deputations were from Kingsdale Avenue dis- trict, Warren avenue, Wood street, and Leslie street. They were per- mitted to address the council, Al- derman Alloway expressing the body's thanks to the ratepayers for waiting upon the council, and urged that they take this means of coming into closer contact with the mayor and aldermen. ! Alderman Stacey gave his opinion on the paving question in a few words. He said that it was his duty to favor paving operations in any section of the city, the reason being that it was a practical work, and must at some time in the near future e considered. Alderman Douglas struck a note (Continued on page 5) ) BREAK PAROLE AN GET THREE MONTHS Peter Hrecia, John Gutofski Sentenced on Old Charge-- Were Intoxicated Peter Hrecia and John Gutofskl!, both of Oshawa, appeared in po- lice court this morning before Ma- gistrate Hind charged with being intoxicated, and also with making a public disturbance in that they were fighting on the street. The two are at present on parole, hav- ing served time on a previous sen- tence. Besides finding each the custom- ary $20 and costs for being intoxi- cated, His Worship gave them sen- tences from three months to two years on the latter count. They will probably be charged for break- ing parole. John Robinson, previously eon- victed for being intoxicated in a public place, was assessed $200 and costs or three months in pris- on. Hector McLeod, before His Worship on a similar charge, ad- mitted being convicted for the third time, and was given four months in jail. The case against Ellen Townson and William Graham jointly cherg- ed with contributing to the im- morality of the former's children will be proceeded with on Septem- ber 5. The two were not able to put up $5,000 bail each and will remain in custody. 17.YEAR-OLD YOUTH DROWNS AT MIMICO Mimico, Aug. 27--Sinking beneath the dark green water of a deep shale hole in an unused brickyard here, 17-year-old Ralph Shanimanico of 291 Manning avenue, Toronto, was drowned tonight. The depth of the hole ranges from 50 to 200 feet, and the body was not recovered until al- most midnight. The youth, with eight companions, come out to bathe in this favorite swimming hole, which is about 200 yards long and 150 yards wide! decided to cross the acts, both show day after and evenings. In addition to this, each evening there will be shown won- derful displays of fireworks.

Secretary, Representa. tives of Brewing Com. pany and Ministerial As- sociation Present But Not Heard The city council last night finally disposed of the Budweiser Brewing Company question, defating by a vote of 10 to 3 a by-law to rescind the by-law passed at a recent ses- sion, selling city land for brewery purposes and authorizing the mayor and clerk to enter into an agreement with the Budweiser Brewing Comi- pany of Canada for the sale of part of the city farm on Simcoe street south and adjoining the lake front, The by-law to rescind the former by-law, was introduced by Alderman Alloway supported by Alderman Al- chin, As soon as the second reading was moved, opposition developed, first by Alderman Stacey, who main- tained that it was out of order for any -alderman to move the rescind- ing of a by-law unless he had at first supported it, Alderman Swanson moved that the by-law be laid on the table until the next meeting, when a legal opinion could be sccured from the city solicitor, Alderman Stacvey continued by a defence of the brewing industry, The morals of the city can be better left in the hands of the business men than in the hands of a few fan atics, Why, even the churches are- n't opposing it--except the United Church and the W.CT.U, The peti- tion of the Ministerial Association did not even represent all the minis- ters, and was an insult to the coun- cil. The brewery was supported by the Chamber of Commerce, and if a few fanatics are going to run the city, I will step out of the eouncil and let them)" The alderman contended further that the city should stick to the bar- gain which it had made. A number of other towns were endeavoring to secure the industry, and he support- ed the hrewery strongly. Alderman Alloway recommended that declegations both for and against the brewery be heard, in- cluding representatives of the Brew- ery and of the Ministerial Assn, Alderman Morris thought the mat- (Continued on page 6) ) WINNER OF ROGERS BATTERYLESS RADIO ANNOUNCED TONIGHT With His Worship, Mayor Pres- ton drawing the lucky ballot, the winner of the 1028-1929 model of the Rogers Batteryless radio which is being given away by the Gener- ator and Starter Company, Limit. ed, will be announced tonight fol- lowing a contest which has been conducted with great success for have turned in ballots in hopes of the past week, Over 1,600 people carrying oft the lucky prize and a large crowd is expected to be present tonight when His Worship selects the ballot from the contain- er in which, by tonight, over 2,000 of the numbered slips are expected to be, The drawing will take place at nine o'clock, when the sealed and padlocked ballot box in which the ballots are placed will be opened and the contests dumped into a washing machine where they will be thoroughly stirred up so as to give everyone an equal chance be- fore" His Worship does his select- ing, It is also likely that minor prizes will be given to other lucky winners in the drawing. "Ta Correspondents of Toronto news- papers who 'take too much for granted" in reporting city council meetings, were flayed by Mayor R. D. Preston at the opening of the council session last night.
