Tomorrow the ratepayers of Oshawa will go to the polls and vote on the question of whether or not the city Is to construct a clvic administra- tion building and a new police station, These are important questions, There ix more bound up in them than the mere erec. tion of two buildings, The proper housing of the civic administration departments, so as to promote efficiency is at stake, Such efficiency is impossible under the present crowded and decentralized conditions, and that is a point which is worthy of considera- tion of the ratepayers. The advantages of having all civic departments adequately housed In one building are so apparent that It is hardly necessary to enumerate them, And there Is the additional factor of civic pride, which can only be stimulated by hav ing civic administration buildings which are worthy of a progressive community, There is the question of providing em: ployment for the workless, The opponents of the bylaws contend that the construction of these bulldings will not provide much em. ployment for Oshawa workmen; that part of the money will be spent elsewhere for 'building materials, The same argument would be true no matter what type of con. struction work were undertaken fer relief purposes. Every construction job requires materials which have to be bought outside of Oshawa, But is it not true that improve. ment in employment elsewhere, by the manufacture of these materials required for the Oshawa building, will help in the gen. oral improvement of conditions, in which Oshawa is bound to share, Looking at di- rect local result, however, the erection of the buildings will give employment to laborers, cement workers, bricklayers, carpenters, el. ectriclans, plumbers, painters, roofing work. ors, and others who at the present time are suffering from the general unemployment, These men work to maintain their families, and it will be a bitter blow to their hopes if the projects are defeated. In spite of what the opponents of the bylaws have to say on that score, there will be sufficient work provided in constructing these build. ings to ensure a living for a large number of Oshawa families during the period when they would otherwise be seeking charitable assistance from the city, The passing of the bylaws will give them work instead of charity, and that is another point worth considering. : The main criticism of the opposition is that the city cannot afford these buildings At the present time, that there is too sori. oun a depression, There is the voice of the pessimists, of the little Oshawans who can. not see beyond the present day, They are the people who are helping to hinder the re. turn of prosperity by their blue ruin talk, They need to have faith in the future of their city. These buildings do not have to be pald for in one year, nor in two, The debentures for 'the elle administration hallding are spread over {wenty years, and those for the police station over fifteen yoars, Surely the Shjoriants of the bylaws do not believe that Oshawa is going to stand still all that time, Surely they do not think that the present depression is going to last forever, Everything points to a coming revi. val of business, and it is almost safe to pre. dict that before the first payment of deben. tures comes due, city will again be prosper. "ous; employment will be plentiful, so that, after all, the fact that there is some depres. sion at the present time has not the bearing on the situation, save from the standpoint of providing employment, that some people aro trying to argue, And, when the whole thing is carefully boiled down, what does it mean in a finan. cial gense? It in not necessary to repeat the figures, but the figures show that, even with the present assessment and debenture ob. ligations, the increased cost to the taxpay- ora would be about fifty conts per $1,000 of assessmont, But when one conaiders the natural increase in assessment, and the re. tirement of debentures of $269,000 this year, it is easy to seo that the additional of the civic buil ing and police station deben. tures would still leave a good margin of re. duction in the city's debt, The honor of Oshawa is at stake in to. morrow's vote, Too long has the city had to bear the shame, of inadequate, decentral- ged civic buildings, and of unsanitary, cramped and disgraceful police quarters, The time to change that is now, when so useful purposes can be served by man poring the bylaws. The ratepayers of Osh- 7 THE OSHAWA DAILY, TIMES, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 27, awa must not be misled by the side Issues dragged into the controversy, They must not be dragged down by the pessimistic blue ruin opposition, the future that Is before Oshawa, to the coming prosperity, and vote to bring about a new spirit of progress in the community by catrying both the bylaws by so great a majority that the eroakers will be silenced for ever, BE SURE TO VOTE The important thing about the vote on the civic administration building and police station bylaws tomorrow is that every rate- payer should make it his or her business to vote, The city council, in presenting the bylaws and questions to the ratepayers, is asking for the opinion of all of them, and not merely of about forty or fifty per cent, Unfortunately it usually happens in bylaw votes that the vote cast is very small, Some. how, it is hard to interest the ratepayers in what Is, after all thelr own business, If in their money that Is being spent, and they should be sufficiently interested to say how it should be spent, The questions before the ratepayers are important, They mean all the difference be tween progress and stagnation, and that in ituelf is an issue sufficiently large to war. rant a record vote, No, on the ave of the voting, we would re peat once again, that time-worn hut apt ad. age, "Vote as you like, hut vote THE POLICE STATION LOCATION In the controversy regarding the bylaws for the construction of a civic administra. tion building and police station, little has heen said about the question which the rate. payers of Oshawa are also asked Lo answer tomorrow, the question of where the new police station is to be built, Two alterna. tives are offered to the ratepayers, first, the site on the city property on the south side of Bagot Street, and secondly, the site at the corner of Prince and Richmond street: now occupied by the market building, This question has to be answered by the ratepayers, and each individual will have his or her own opinion on the matter, Each of the two sites has its advantages, and it is not the intention of The Times to express a proference for one against the other, The important thing, after all, is not where the wolice station shall be built, but to get it and that is the main proposal which the ratepayers should support, . The site |i a secondary consideration, and, in fact, it might have been better had the council tak. en matters Into its own hands, and named the site on which the police station is to he built, Let it be on either place---~that rest with the ratepayers--hbut let it be bullt, is the only advice which we can hand on to the ratepayers at this time, VISITORS SURPRISED "Surely that Is not your city hall" That remark {rom the lips of a prominent delegate to the convention of Ontario Sani: tary Inspectors in Oshawa last week, brings home to the people of Oshawa the feeling of shame which they must feel when visitors ask to see the civic buildings, It is no credit to Oshawa that it has no city hall, that visi tors have to he shown a transformed resi. dence into which the various civic ndminis tration departments are crowded, It is not much wonder that vigitors are surprised on being shown the city buildings, for they na turally expect that a progressive city like Oshawa will have a city hall in keeping with ita size and importance, This is the situation which it is hoped will he remedied by the passing of the bylaws on which the ratepayers ave to vote on Thurs. day ,=~=bylaws providing for the construction of civic administration buildings, and for a new police station, Other conventions will be coming to Osh. awa in the future, The fact that there is now a modern hotel in the city will encourage them to come here. Surely that chance re. mark of a delegate last week will act ax a spur to civie pride, and will persuade the rate. payers that when other conventions come to Oshawa next year and in the years to come, it should be made possible to point with pride, rather than with shame, to the civie builds ings, ullt, EDITORIAL NOTES Are you a dynamiter? Vote as you like, but vote, It is significant that the leaders of the opposition to the two bylaws were also strongly opposed to the erection of the vo. cational school in 1928, That gives a fairly good indication of whether or not they are obstructionists, Oshawa cannot stand still, bylaws, Vote for the The Dynamiters will be out In full force on Thursday to vote for the city hall and police station bylaws, "Leave a battle pyee alone for a hundred vears and it may take on the aspect of a peaceful, happy glade."--Emil Ludwig.
