PROPERTY ALONG CREEK 1S BMIGHT 10 PROTECT CITY (Continued trom Page 1) farm lands: the city is to survey all the properties affected; and, is to erect suitable fences. ¥urther Negotiations The purchase was recommended by the Board of Works, which added a rider that negotiations were proceed- ing with Mr, Chiplack for the pur- "chase of one-half an acre to complete the strip orf land along the creek owned by the city from Bloor street to the city farm. By adopting this report, and pur- chasing the land, the city council ends litigation and troublé that the city has faced for three or four years due to alleged pollution of this creek. Already there has been paid out in damage settlements, court costs and lawyers fees a sum that would go well towards buying the land at the price now being paid by the city for it. When the council went into com- mittee of the whole on the report of the Board of Works, Alderman W. Boddy was elected. chairman far the committee of the whole for oh. Regarding the clause for the pur- chase of 15 acres of land to settle all damage claims against the city for pollution by city storm sewers, May- or Mitchell said that he was satisfied with the price for the 15 acres. How- ever, he said that it would be wiser to complete the deal with Mr. Chip- lack and bring in a report settling the whole matter. ' Sand at Harbor The city should also purchase a small triangular piece of land. owned by Mr. Conant at the harbor, This land would be necessary eventually and should be bought now, he said, v COKE!

Oshawa had paid eonsiderable dam- ages. as a result of the nuisance cre- ated by the city and might face fur- ther damage actions unless a settle- ment is reached. The price was fair and would establish a price which would be a guide in. the transaction for the half acre. Mr. Conant would not negotiate for lands owned by him in connection with the pre sent deal, said Alderman Hart. Alderman Waterous favored Mayor Mitchell's contention and Alderman E. Jackson 'supported the Board of Works report. Alderman G.

For the Yips represent the largest single family in Vancouver and the head of the house, Yip Sang, is one of the city's wealthiest and most in- fluential Chinese merchants. But the Yips do not confine their activities to Chinatown. There are so many of the Yip boys ghat they form a baseball team and a*football team of their own, and they are rec- ognized as among the keenest play- ers at these games in Vancouver's amateur ranks. Central School, Vancouver's cos- mopolitan centre of learning which has representatives of a score of races pn its roster, has sixteen as- sorted varieties of Yips, the third gen eration of the famous Yip Sang. Ace cording to one of the young Yips, he has fifty-two brothers and sisters, which, translated into western rela- tionship, means cousins. But he has plenty of brothers and sisters in the Occidental meaning, as well When the original Yip Sa to Vancouver and settled his family here, there were four women in his family, three of whom still live in the six-storey residence on East Pen- der Street. There were twenty- three children, four girls and nine- teen boys, seventeen of the buys still living under the family roof with their numerous children. It is not an' Oriental palace, this modern building of the Yips, Below is the store which houses business activities of the brothers. Above aie living apartments, decorously furn- ished with chesterfield suites supple- mented by takwood chairs and Orivn- tal hangings. Probably the busiest part of the household are sixteen small children who attend Central School, obtain- ing the same education as their fa- thers before them and as. their own children will have. From 9 o'clock in the morning until 3.30 o'clock in the | afternoon they are taught all hat niodern civilization demands. Their play hours, between 3.30 and 5 p.m, are often devoted to school sports and. from 5 until 8 p.m. they attend the Chinese schools where they aig taught the language of their fathers and Chinese' literature. This family is strictly western in its ideas. The children all have Eng- lish names. There are Bills, Georges, Ienrys, and Dans or Marys, Mar« | garets and Alices. Every year brings a new crop, and every class in the school has from one to five of the family. They will be educated at universitics in the East and West and they will then enter the family business. URGES PROGRAM OF TAX REDUCTION Rome, Feb. 4.--Premier Benito Mussolini, describing Italy as a "giant with steel tendons," in an address to the mayors of the chief cities of the country's ninety-two provinces in conyention here urged a program of tax reduction, "We propose to give the taxpay- ers a period of repose," Mussolini said. "From 1922 to 1930 he worked tremendously. A giant with steel tendons, that is Fascist Italy today, and we can take a little rest in order to accelerate the speed of our march. "All works not strictly necessary must be postponed." Mussolini promised to abolish inter-city taxes under which at pre- sent all agricultural products are taxed at the city limits. He said the system was a relic of the middle ages maintained only in France, Greece and Italy.
