Rose, although un- committed, said the evidence seems to point in the other direction. The penitentiary service's states intention of operating smaller, decent- ralized penitentiaries seems tobe strengthened by the fact that the Warkworth facility already has been considered for expansion. "After thou- sands of dollars have been spent in expansion in the Warkworth area,' he pointed out, "They abandoned the project and chose instead to build it elsewhere." "You can take from that what you want to." Another objecter painted penitentiary officials as basi- cally honest men but good salesmen. "Showing only the good side, putting the best foot forward," he said. "Thisisn't a Sunday School picnic, you know," he said. '""They're not quiet little fellows." According to one view, penitentiary service officials simply consider us 'hick farmers" that will swallow anything. As for council's favourable comments about Warkworth....* "They knew you were coming..." "We can bring in better secondary industries, rather than little shops making night sticks and needles for mailbags," said the objecter. "Clean industry? I think we can get much cleaner. industry." Since hiring for jobs at the institution would be done through the area Manpower Office in Oshawa, there was concern. that Oshawans would get the jobs that should go to local people. '""Aslong as they let us work at General Motors, we'll have to let them work up here," smiled Coun. Rose, a point re-enforced by Mayor Mal- colm. "If it wasn't for General Motors, we'd dry up," he added. "Winter warm "CHRIS ALLEN ALUMINUM Wrap your home in a - Summer cool" blanket of insulated Aluminum.

Bob Kenny, quoted earlier in the Port Perry STAR as being in favour of approving the penitentiary in principle, stood by the con- viction that overall, the ad- vantages outweigh the disad- vantages. He said the STAR"s coverage of the issue has been complete and that he bases his decision on the same information available. Coun. Neil Hunter: "It's not the only fenced industry, just other fences not quite so high. A highway going through town doesn't have any fences, and what's more dangerous than a highway ?"' Coun. Bob Brinkman: "I wonder what these people would say about allowing a psychiatric hospital here? I've worked with psychiatric patients. They are people. These inmates are people, too." Coun. Jerry Taylor told of his experiences as a Toronto policeman, working around institutions ranging from the Don Jail to women's prisons. He saw no ill effects. Coun. Rose said if the economic advantages sur- pass whatever social dis- advantages there might be, he would vote for the institu- -tion. Most councillors agreed that while most at the meeting were opposed, many others they'vetalkedtoarein favour. "Most of the people that approach me are opposed," said Coun. Rose, "yet most of the people that I approach for their views are in favour." Olympic Lottery Tickets AVAILABLE AT THE Port Perry Star -985.7383 5]
