T. MORRIS Chairman Property Committee Oshawa is wasting money and sacrificing efficiency every, year by continuing its policy of housing city offices in inadequate, decentralized and antiquated buildings in var- The new proposed civic buildings will take care of all the administrative departments of the city, and will also pro- vide offices for the Public Utilities Commission, the Juv- enile Court, and other departments which are no in rented property. Civic Pride demands thal a city of the size and Importance of Oshawa should have some kind of centralized civic ad- ? ministration buildings, instead of having only a few cramped offices, some of them rented, for the purpose, J The cost to the ratepayers per annum, after allowing for the rental of space to the Public Utilities Commission and for the rents saved by accommodating officials now working in rented offices, would be $4,160 a year--less than a quarter of a mill on the dollar in taxes. To give work is better than to give charity. The Unem. ployed workers of Oshawa would have an opportunity of finding work in the construction of the civic buildings, which would, by agreement with the contractors, be built by local labor. Employment is urgently needed by hun: dreds of Oshawa families, and this project would be one means of relieving unemployment, The Dominion Government have promised {o solve the unemployment question they are sure to make grants for unemployment when spent on public buildings. The first item mentioned by the Employment Service Council of Canada in its recommendations to the Government on employment is public buildings.
