SHARP EXCHANGES WHITBY COUNCIL (Continued from Page 3) of the people through plebiscite, Councillor Threadgold to have given the matter close at- tention and was even more firmly convinced that it would be indis- creet for the council to extend the park to Trent street. The expen- diture he considered would be too great and pointed out that if the land was not acquired by the town, the owner, (Deputy Reeve Under- wood), might build houses en 1t with the result that increased rev- onue would be brought into the town. He also suggested that if necessary the park should expand south where the land was fairly level and free from old buildings, If the old factory were to be con- lion he thought that the former would be running in opposition to the town hall. Should money he spent on parks he would suggest that it be spent on the lake front, "I would rather spend money on the waterfront," stated Couneillor Ed. Bowman, in voicing his disap- proval of the recommendation. There was little attraction in the south end of the town, he stated, and thought that this condition might be improved by having the government co-operate with tne town, to fill in the town's marsh, behind the harhor by means of a sandsucker, thus making a beau- tiful park. "The present park Is in bad con- dition," Councillor Ormiston opin- ed. He did not see why it shoula not be kept better and advocated that it be improved before money was spent in acquiring more grounds, He had attended the public meeting and estimated tnat there were ahout half of those pre- sent who voted while the remain- der did not oppose the recommen- dation. Before action should he taken he favored taking a vote of the people. He pointed out that the track was in poor shape and that for this reason an inter-school meet hetween Whithy, Bowman- ville and Oshawa high schools, to have been held here last year, had to be taken to Oshawa. Council lor Ormiston also favored charg- ing the tourists a small fee for camping privileges. He claimed that it was done in other towns. Councillor Pringle was still op- posed to making the purchase. He considered the price of $3,000 rea- sonable providing the property was suitable and was really needed. The old factory building was to his mind useless to the town ana be- yond repair, Councillor Brough- ton favored spending nroney on ius present park or the waterfront hut did not think that the majority of ratepayers favored the purchase. "I regret that this council does not see fit to co-incide with the opinion of the public meeting called by the Chamber of Commerce," stated Reeve Jackson. He thought it unfortunate that so few of the councillors had seen fit to attend the meeting and were not visibly co-operating with the Chamber of Commerge, e under- stood that the council had desired the opinion of the people and it had heen given. In answer to Councillor Bow- man's project to fill in the marsh the reeve pointed out that the town did not own the marsh, that it was goy- ernment property and would cost a fortune to convert it into a park. If conditions at the town park were as Councillor Ormiston had described them, why then did not the property committee get busy to recitfy them? Referring again to the extension pro- ject he promised that within one year the property, which might now be yo for $3,000, could be sold for The chairman of the property committee replied that the park was not in bad shape for he had inspect- ed it a short while ago. Councillor Ormiston explained that he did not infer that the property committee was neglecting its duty but that the citi- zens of Whitby were not treating their property as they should. At this point Mayor Bateman chose to explain what had occurred at the public meeting. The endorsa- tion of the recommendation he stat- ed to be unanimous and he thought that the gentlemen who spoke in its favor were attempting to look ahead for the best interests of the town. Personally he favored leaving the matter to the people but did not know whether Deputy Reeve Under- wood would wish to hold his property from the market, The deputy reeve answered that he was in an awkward position in the matter and did not wish to bind him- self further. He had already receiv- ed inquiries for lots but refrain- ed from selling until he was sure what action the town would take, He wished to assure the councillors and public that in the advent of the deal being made his agent, the reeve, would not receive one cent of com- mission. He frankly admitted that there was a small profit in it for himself. 4 Reeve Jackson would not allow to pass unchallenged Councellor Ormis- ton's statement that about one half of those present at the public meeting had mot voted. He claimed that there were only six or seven, or pos- J sibly one or two more, out of forty- claimed verted into a dance hall and pavi- seven persons, who ' refrained ftom voting. He asked Mayor Bateman to give his estimate, His Worship hy JX. 0) the number at eleven or twelve. Councillor Ormiston refused to de- viate from his statement, "1 said there were about half," he stated, "there may have been 23 or 24, 1 will not have this shoved down my throa R the reeve." He then accuse eeve Jackson of being after him ev- er since he had been in the council By this time the air was charged with electricity and Deputy Reeve Underwood jumped to his feet' to accuse Councillor Ormiston of be nfair to the reeve and himsel through the columns of his paper. Councillor Ormiston retorted hotly that this was untrue, thus bringing Reeve Jackson into the debate. The reeve denied that he had anything against the councillor and re-iterate the deputy-reeve's statement that he was not getting a fair deal from the local paper. He accused the coun- ciller of jabbing him through the press and demanded that he be giv- en no cc dation or cond tion, but a fair report of all he said and did in public. If there was to be war he was willing to fight in pub- ie. The clash terminating upon motion of Counicllor Threadgold to discon- tinue the discussion, the council re- sumed its ordinary business. Coun- cillor Mowat then made his motion as mentioned above, his seconder being Councillor Bowman, Before adjourn. ment however, Councillor Ormiston brought forth a second motion ex- pressing the council's appreciation for the interest taken by the Chamber of Commerce in the matter of har- bor improvement and pledging the council's support, This was unani- mously adopted, Reeve Jackson point- ing out that it balanced the effect of the other motion which he considered almost tantamount to a rebuttal to the Chamber of Commerce. All members of the council were present at last night's meeting in- cluding Mayor Bateman, Reeve Al- bert Jackson, Deputy Reeve R. J, Underwood, Councillors Wm. Prin- gle, J. H. Ormiston, Chas. Brough- ton, Ed. Bowman, Frank Threadgold and Dave Mowat, YOUNG FARMHAND DRAGGED BY HORSES Woodstock, Sept. 17.--Oren Boughner, young farm laborer in the employ of Carl Nobbs, North Norwich, was seriously injured Saturday when a wagon on which he was riding broke down and the horses ran away. Boughner was driving along the Fourth Concession of North Nor- wich with a load of chop when a bolt came out of one of the crev- ices of the wagon, letting the whip- pletrees fall. The horses went into the ditch and started off a runaway, while the wagon crashed against a telephone pole and upset, Boughner was thrown against a fence, but, hanging on to his reins, he was dragged along the road for a considerable distance, Neighbors who had seen the aec- cident carried Boughner to a farm« house, where it was found that he had sustained severe internal in- juries, and he is still in a very critical condition, INDIANK MAKE OPTIMISTIC PROPHECY OF FALL DEER HUNTING Plenty of deer this season!

McLaughlin Ave, DEPARTMENT ASKS ABOUT THE CITY SEWAGE DISPOSAL Desires To Know of Pro. gress Made in Regard to Proposed Plant At last might's meeting of the city council a letter was read from the Department of Health regard- ing the matter of sewage disposal for the City of Oshawa. The let- ter says in part: "From time to time the matter of sewage disposal for the city of Oshawa has been under consideras tion both locally and by this de partment and our sanitary engin. eering staff has given advice and assistance on more than one ocea- sion in the above consideration.
