Veaenay pig A Is Appointed Street paving and improved telephone equipment were discuss- ed at an open meeting of the Whit- by Chamber of Commerce held on Thursday evening in the council chafober, and presided over by a. A. Hutchison, president. The telephone equipment ques- jtion was discussed by H, M. Black, "district manager for the Bell Tele- (phone Company, while Town Eng- ineer H. L.

Or- miston, who has been secretary of the Chamber since its inception, was according to a resolutino pass- ed, and accepted with regret, and E. A. Kearney, local manager of the Royal Bank of Canada, was named in his place, The president spoke briefly of the work done hy the retiring secretary, while the meeting = was unanimous that in filling his place an excellent choice had: been made. Owing to the absence of ¥. H. M, Irwin, and the lateness of the hour, the question of street and house numbering, which was on the doc- ket for discussion, was laid over until another meeting. + Seeking New Factories . Another interesting' feature of the meeting was a fine report giv- en by Dr. G. L. Macdougall, which reviewed the ' extensive efforts of the Industrial Committee, of which he is chairman, to induce indus- tries to locate in Whitby, The committee had been in touch, with prospective industries, many let- ters had been written and replies received, and in one or two in- stances it was shown that success had almost been achieved. Dr. Macdougall was hopeful that with constant effort the committee's ef- forts. would sooner or later" be re- wardsd.

Probably no part of the body is under more strain than the Kidneys.

Council Action Endorsed The meeting, after listening tc | on record as endorsing a resolution passed by the Town Council on Monday of thig week asking the Bell Telephone Company to instal in their local system what is known as the common batery or central energy system, replacing the mag. neto system which has been in use here for many years, Speaking on the town council's request, Mr. Black pointed out that on account of the company's present policy in connection with the installation of modern equip- ment on the smaller switehboards, Whitby"s request might be consid- ered favorably in the course of tive years. New equipment® in Bowmanville, where there were about 1,600 telephones as compar- ed with 660 in Whitby, was slated for 1931. Mr. Black stated that in connection with the new ex- change premises just moved into in Whitby, the most modern equip- ment of the magneto type had been installed. It was as good as that in use in Toronto and. elsewhere only that telephone users had to ring a bell to get central. Mr. Dlack stated that the new exchange was modern in every respect and he invited those at the meeting to inspect it at any time, and also the exchange at Oshawa, Asked why it was that Bowman- ville, with oaly 200 move people than Whitby, had so many more telephones, Mr. Black explamed that there were more rural tele- phones connected to the Bowman- ville exchange, which served a much wider area than Whitby, Mr. Black gave the information that {the daily nnmber of calls handled [at the Whithy exchange was be [tween 4,000 and 4,500, also about 200 long distance ealls. A check- {up of the trafle was made semi- monthly and sometimes oftener. A District Service H. Annis brought up the question of a free telephone se.- vice between Whitb yand Oshawa, | and asked Mr, Black if the com- pany would consider such a move. Mr. Black's answer was emphatic- ally in the negative. He pointed out that while such a district ser- vice was In vogue between Kit- chener and Waterloo, where one municipality joined the other, the | company had been trying for years | to get it discontinued. The poliey of the company was to discourage the inter-town service because ud! was costly and very unsatisfactory. | Mr. Black pointed out that it would | be unfair to establish a free ser- vice between Whith yand Oshawa when the telephone rates for busi-| ness places and residences were | higher in Oshawa than locally. The | residence charge in Whitby was | $2.05 monthly, in Oshawa it was $2.50. In Whitby a business tele- phone cost $3 monthly. In Osh-| awa the charge was $4. Mr. Black | said that from a business stand-| point the free service would be de- | trimental to Whithy business men. | However, he was emphatic that | the company would not consider the proposal a tshey were absolute- | ly opposed to it, Some Interesting information re- garding wrong numbers and long | distance rates was also givem by Mr. Black. } Street Improvements | In his address on street improve- | ment costs, Town Engineer H, L.| Pringle did not undertake to ad- vise the town one way or the other | regarding the continuance of the | present policy of gravelling, grad-| ing and ditching, or the substitu-| tion of a poliey of street paving.

Town Engineer Pringle admitted in reply to a question asked by Pre- sident Hutchison regarding the cost of calcium chloride that the latter prolonged the life of gravell- ed streets In that it kept it from blowing away. Mr. Pringle prom- ised to prepare information as to the amount the town and property owners should each pay for this service, The publication of Mr. Pringle's excellent paper in the newspaper or in booklet form was recom- mended.

Tho fact that the locals were forced to take the short end of a 6-3 score was the only fly in the ointment.

After registering at the Royal York Hotel the visitors, escorted by The Toronto Regiment Band, were taken to the Durant plant at Leasidé in busses and the procession through the city created a great impression as it wended its way to the north. east city limits. * On arrival at the Plant, which has heen enlarged con- siderably during the last year, offi- cial photographs wens taken and this was followed by a trip through the plant for the purpose of examining © new hi in op and the methods by which the new Dur- ant cars are now being built. After several hours in the Plant and a thorough examination of the various models of the "6-14""--an en- tirely ncw line--the large party again embarked in busses for the Royal York Hotel to attend the annual Ban- quet and entertainment provided in their honor by the Durant company.

CITY DOES NOT OWN ALEXANDRA PARK, 1S CLA (Continued from Page 3) athletic gleld at Alexandra Park. This could not be done, however, unless the Agricultural Society buildings could be removed Lo some other site, The Parks Board and the city regretted the situation he stated, but there seemed to be no other solution to it. In cons clusion His Worship congratulated the executive and members of the Society for the progress which they had made and for the cfficient op- eration and success of their an- nunl fairs, Dr. Henry Bradley re- ferred to the agreement under which the Agricultural Society has been allowed the use of Alex andra Park. Under this agreement they claimed the Parks Board had a right to demand the evacuation of the park by the society within six months after giving due no- tice. of the board, however, to Issue any notice but rather to discuss the matter on a friendly basis and thus poszibly arive at a satisfact- ory solution The space now of cupled by the society's fair build- ings was required for other uses they stated. Park Not City Property A direct challenge of the Parks Board to demand evacuaiton of Alexandra Park by the Agricul- and Mr. It was not the intention of | tural Society was made by Dr. T. 1. Kaiser, an honorary president | of th organization, He polnt- | ed out that the city did not own | the park but leased it from a prac- { tically extinct organiza.ion, whicn | was known as the Oshawa Athlet- ic Association, for a period of 99 vears at a nominal rental of $1 a year. Dr. Kaiser seriously doubt- ed whether the city had lived up to tho terms of the lease by pay- ing the $1 a year rental and there- fore the Parks Board could not dictate to the Agricnltural Society. a member of the Athletic As- sociation he recalled that in the negotiations carried on between it and the city, it was distinctly un- derstood that in the advent of the lease being given. the South On- tario Agricultural Sozlety should be allowed to locate its oulldings, which were then situated in Whit- by, in Alexandra Park, This had been done, he 'stated, and the buildings were brought from Whit- by to Oshawa ond the subsqenent annual fairs of the society held in | this eit, There was no doubt, he claimed, that the Society was doing an important work and that the annual fall fair not only benefitted the rural. districts of the county but also brought increased prom- inence to 'Oshawa, while citizens | of both the country and city were | allowed cloz¢r contact with friend- | ier relationships resulting. The | Society had investeq considerable | money in Alexandra Park and if { | AS it was forced to evacuate it would practically mean the ruination of | the Oshawa Fair, he opined. Sinclair Supports Kaiser the sight of the Liberal leader of hie provincial legislature, W. E. N. Sinclair, backing up the con- tention of thé local member for the Dominion House. Mr. Sinclair as former secretary of the Athletic Association recalled the leasing of the park to the city and the stren- uous effort which was made at that time to have the Agricultural Society establish its buildings and stalls at Alexandra Park. He sug- geated that if the Parks Board had avy grievances they should be sub- mitted in writing and if they wish- ed to issue an ultimatum they so do. The new executive of the So- ciety could then appoint a com- mittee to deal with the matter. seek Compromise "We are not wishing to issue an ultimatum," stated Dr, Henry. "We did not come here for that purpose but would prefer to meet a committee from the Society and talk matters over at a round table conference, Possibly we could then arrive at some compromise." "What matters would you wish to talk over?" inferjected Dr Kaiser. "The Agricultural Society does not know what the grievances of the Parks Board are for as you have never stated any. Take action it you want to." "As 1 sald before we did not come here to issue an ultimatum but Dr. Kaiser has given us orders and we may try to obey them," re- plied Dr. Henry. "You may see then what action we might take." After making this final remark the chairman of the Parks Board and Mr. Bradley left the ball. Mayor T. B. Mitchell had departed several minutes previously. PRICE WILLING T0 INVESTIGATE "After Baby Came | Was Weak, Skinny Gained 22 Lbs."
