TUESDAY, OCTOBER 21, 1930 "od Works for Relief of Un- employment in the Town Whitby Town wn Council is bend- ing every effort to provide work or its unemployed citizens, The council on Monday night approved of n elvic works recommend- ed by the Public Uthity Commis- sion provided that financial assist. ance can be secured from the Gov- ernment through the Unemploy- ment Relief Fund, A special com- 'mittee' of the mayor, reeve and deputy reeve went to Toronto this morning to submit to the govern. ment the proposed work and seek approval of the same. The deputa- tion will also inform the govern- ment of other considered works and will ascertain if the Unemploy- ment Relief Funds grants can be obtained for it. The council will issue a procla- mation calling upon all unemploy- ed men to register their names with the Town Clerk by Saturday at noon this week. | Counel} was advised that no grants will be made from the Un- employment Relief Fund for work already done, this season to pro- vide employment. The council re- ceived this advice with much dis- appointment as it has expended the sum of $10,000 for water and sewer mains to give work to its citizens. This work under ordinary circumstances would * not have been done. SPEEDING SCALE FOR FINING MOTORISTS A new system of fining Jpesding motorists was. adopted by Judge . Jessie P.

The council is hopeful that a clause in the contract will provide that the contractor must employ as much Whitby labor as possible, Some time ago the Hon, George 5S. Henry, Minister of Public Works, told a Whitby delegation that a clause to this effect would be placed in the contract {in as much as it was in line with the policy of the Government. Work is expected to start on the new building forthwith as contract calls for an early completion. MANY REJECTED AT CANADIAN BORDER New Immigration Restric- tions Are Proving Effected Ottawa, Oct. 21--It is not easy to get into Canada now. Since the new and stricter immigration regulations went into effect some six weeks ago the number of people entering Can- ada from foreign countries has been steadily reducing. No figures are yet available to show the effect of the regulations but from indications not- ed at the department of immigration there is no doubt about their efficacy The number of people who have been refused admission at the ocean ports and border points runs into the thousands. The appeals from decis- ions of officers at the ports which have come forward to the depart ment have shown a phenomenal in- crease since the promulgation of the changes in the reguldtions, As the nature of Canada's new im- migration policy becomes more wide- ly understood abroad it is expected the ications for ad to this country will decline, FALLEN The day fades fast, And on the beach the last Remains of tugs, once sturdy, lie, Gaunt and bare against the sea and sky. Once &'er those rotten planks Gay tars and roughened strode, And down beneath the sturdy engines stood, While merrily the little tugs puffed proud ships on-- Pulling, guiding huge, along, The ghostlike shades of letters still proclaim Upon the bow of one her olden name: "The Golden Rule"; but all the oth- ers stand Forgotten nameless wrecks upon the sand, water shivering all about The shivering, inky shadows of their naked ribs stand out, And their decks, holes gaping wide, Stand open to the onslaught of the tide.

MILE IN LENGTH Will Weigh Twenty and a Half Tons, Will Be Forty Inches Wide and Three Eighths of an Inch Thick BR The largest rubber beit ever made in the Dominion of Canada is now under construction in the Bowman. ville plant of the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company and when complet- ed will make a full carload ship- ent. Mr, A. M. Hardy, superintendent of the Bowmanville plant, yesterday afternoon showed The Times this massive conveyor belt which is more than half completed. The Goodyear received this order during the past week from a South American min- ing company who will use it as a conveyor belt in one of their mines, While the mention of the largest belt in the; Dominion conveys to a person that it must be some size the actual dimensions are even more surprising. The belt when completed will be well over a mile in length or about 6,000 feet long. It will weigh some 41,000 pounds or just twenty and a half tons and it is forty inches wide and three eights of an inch thick. Should the belt be bullt in one part it would be necessary to tear a considerable portion of the factory wall down to get it out for ship- ment and even then it would be im- possible to put it onto a railway car as it would be too high to go under any bridge on any railway. It has therefore been made in six parts with each of these parts weighing 3 and a half tons, about a thqusand feet long and when roll- ed and packed stands over ten feet high. The six pleces will constitute a complete carload and by the end of this week less than two weeks from the time the order was re- ceived, the largest belt ever built in Canada will be on its way to its destination in South America. Tt is hard to describe in words the size of this belt and it is hard to convey to a reader the real mag- nitude of the products. But look at it this way. If the belt was laid out its full length starting at the .C.P.R. overhead bridge at the west- ern 'limits of the town it would reach a little farther than the Bow- manville Cemetery at the eastern limits of the town, It would be as wide as the average sidewalk in the town and if used as a sidewalk would last for years, Then imagine how much welght there is when you shovel a ton of coal from one' side of your cellar 'to the other, multiply that weight by twenty and you will have the approximate weight of this monster belt. Look. Ing at it in this light it is sure some belt. a --------------------------.

Alfred Ernest Smith, B.D,, died yesterday after a week's ill- ness, in his seventy-ninth year at his residence, 49 Alberta Ave, Toron- to. Rev. Mr, Bmith, who for more than fifty-two years served in the ministry, was well known through- out Ontario, His mantle during late years has fallen on his two sons, also well known in Ontario as preachers of the Gospel: Rev. Dr. A. Lloyd Smith, pastor United Church, Brampton, and Rev. J. La- vell Smith, pastor of Trinity United Church, Huntsville, Rev. Mr, Smith was born in Corn. wall, and came to Canada with his parents when a small boy. The family first settled in Bowmanville and later in Carlingford, Following a period ot teaching school, Mr. Smith entered into the Methodist ministry as a probationer, serving Holmesville, Brussels and Bervie circuits, Following a course of study at Wesley Theological College, Mon- treal, from which institution he re- ceived the degree of Bachelor of Divinity, Rev, Mr. Smith was or- dained to the ministry, He held the following pastorates: Varne, Wroxeter, Moorefield, Arthur, Plattsville, Clifford, Port Dover, Acton, Ridgeway, Caledonia, Greydon and Jordon Station.

Now however, the chief issues this 4a a last warning to these offenders and wishes them to understand that this week is the Auburn, last week of grace. At the end of this week those who have failed to comply with the bylaw providing for the payment of this tax will find themselves In receipt of a sum- mons to appear in court, This will prove a costly proceeding so those rwho are still In arrears with this tax and they will find it advisable to get in toueh with the chief im- mediately and pay this tax before it becomes necessary to take the step leading to an appearance in the police court. GOUNGIL APPROVES LARGE PROGRAM OF RELIEF WORKS (Continued from Page 3) ed upon to hear some heavy loads." Mayor Mitchell also commented that since the York township probe took place, there had been a lot of talk about the lettng of contracts for paving and other jobs, He was of the opinion that more investiga- tions of this nature might take place throughout the province. "The Standard Paving Co. has re- ceived all our paving contracts here in recent years," he pointed out. The concrete pavement could be built before winter sets in, Mayor Mitchell said, Jt would give more work to the unemployed than the method suggested by the board of works and he suggested that large gangs be put on to rush the job through to completion, The mayor's remarks found fav- or with the unemployed, who were present at last night's meeting, and they applauded him vigorously. In replying to Mayor Mitchell's statement, Ald, Hart contended that the black base pavement made a better road than concrete and he read a telegram from provincial highway engineers to the effect that this type of pavement is be- coming much more popular. Per- sonally he preferred to drive over a black base road than one construct- ed of concrete. Ald, Hart did not believe that it would be possible to lay a concrete pavement before winter set in, making concrete operations impos- sible. The city engineer's depart- ment was already faced with the task' of supervising other paving jobs in the city and he believed that for this reason it would be wise to let a contract. The Stan- dard Paving Co. would employ practically all Oshawa men and he was convinced that just as much work would be given to the unem- ployed by laying a black base pave- ment as by laying concrete. With regard to the mayor's re- marks about the York township probe, the chairman of the hoard of works asked him to bring forth some evidence. "The Standard Paving Co. fis practically an Oshawa concern and has given a great deal of work to local men," Ald. Hart sald. "The mayor should make his statements specific and not cast aspersions." The board of works program has been carefully mapped out, he said. "I have no evidence to offer and I am not casting aspersions at any company or at any person." Mitchell replied. "It is common knowledge however that the York township investigations proved that contractors in Ontario had alloted themselves certain districts and in these districts they had assur- ance that thelr tenders would be the lowest for certain jobs." It was too late in the season to start laying concrete, Ald. E. Jack- son opined. The frost would cause continual trouble he thought. Ald, Bunker also favored the black base as he believed it gave good services. He was certain that as much work could be given the unemployed by laying the one as the other, Ald, Sulley lined up with those supporting the concrete pavement. He contended that it would be cheaper and more durable and that by laying it under the supervision of the ir engineer's department more work could be given to t unemployed than otherwise. "This {8 no time to allo ne tracts," said Ald. Geo. Morris. "The city has given a great deal of busi. ness to the Standard Paving Co. and I am sure that it could rent their equipment to do this work," A similar opinion was voiced by Ald. P. A, MacDonald, who claimed that the concrete pavement was much superior to black base. "It will just mean twice the amount of labor if this work {a done under the directon of the city engineer's 'department," mented. Mayor | It was then moved by Ald. Sul- ley and Ald. Cameron that the clause be amended so that a con- crete pavement be laid under the direction of the city engineer. Ald. Bunker moved an amend- ment to the amendment that the clause be adopted, Ald, Bunker, Ald. Hawkes, Ald, Hart and Ald. E. Jackson alone supported the second amendment which was lost. The first amend- ment then carried with Mayor Mit- chell, Ald. P. A. MacDonald, Ald, Morris, Ald. Cameron, Ald. Sulley and Ald, Gummow voting in its fav- or. An attempt made by Ald. Hawkes and Ald. Bunker to refer the clause back to the board of works, so that further information could be se- cured concerning the relative value of concrete and black base pave- ment, failed, Other clauses in the board of works' report, which were adopted, are as follows: "That Asphaltic Concrete Pave- ments be constructed as a local im- provement on the following streets: Athol St. East from end of pros- ent pavement to 156' 3 East, Cadillac Ave. from King St. to South line of Lot 115. That the construction of pave- ments be proceeded with as soon as possible on the following streets: Richmond St. from Oshawa Blvd, to Roxborough Ave. William St. from Oshawa Blvd, to Ritson Road, Cadillac Ave. from King St. South Line of Lot 115. That Storm and Sanitary Sewers be constructed as a local improve- ment on Simcoe St. South from Frank $t. to Rcoeomodate the, pro- posed industrigs'on the: Industrial Area, provided building operations are actually commenced for the purposes of the said industries. If these sewers are so required to be built as far south as Wentworth St. we recommend that the sanitary sewer be. extended to provide con- nection for Mr. G. D, Conant's resi- dence. That the construction of rein forced concrete tile, for sewer pur- poses be proceeded with as a relief measure under the understanding arrived at with the Government to pay 50% of the cost of the work as a relief measure, That the Main Storm Sewer be extended southerly to Bloor St. East under the understanding ar- rived at with the Government as a rellef measure. That the grading of the hills on Bloor St. East, Willingdon' Ave, and Hillcroft St. at the east end of the street be proceeded with as a relief measure under the understanding arrived at with the Government That the decision of the Govern- ment to assist in the grading of Alexandra Park be referred to the Parks Commission with the sugges- tion that they co-operate immedi- ately with the City in the initiation of the work at once, as a relief measure, as the City is prepared to procedd with the work just as soon ia the Parks Commission takes ac- on. That the City Engineer be au- thorized to proceed with the con- struction of the sewers necessary to drain the Subway as the Cana- dian National Railway has agreed to permit the City to do this work and charge the same to the Subway, project." to MOTORISTS Special vacation automobile insur« ance policies are issued in Virginia, The coverage includes collision, tor- nado, riot, flood and water, earth- guike and damage from falling air- craft. , THE LONELY CITY Ellen was very excited when she left to work in the nearby city. But she soon discovered a big city can be a lonesome place sometimes. The one thing that kept her at her, job was the fact that she could go home twice 8 week by telephone. Night rates made the cost trifiing and these volce visits with her family and friends were Ellen's greatest pleasure, WEREA SCORES 1 W. E. N. SINCLAIR Cabinet Ministers Rally to Support Candidates in By-Elections (By Canadian Press Leased Wire) Toronto, Oct. 21--Opening the final week of campaigning on behalf of the the four provincial seats of the legis- lature , made vacant through deaths and resignations, Hon. Charles Mc- Crea, Ontario minister of mines, spoke at Mitchell last night in the (|i interests of C. E. Richardson, who is |} opposed in Perh South by the Lib- eral-Progressive nominee, George S. Keith, Mr. McCrea criticized W, E. N. Sinclair, K.C,, Liberal Leader, for in- timating in a recent speech that Premier G. H.. Ferguson should not have gone to. England at the present time. The speaker said he thought it was wisdom on the part of the prem- ier to keep in close touch with de- velopments at the Imperial Economic Conference so that he might, if call- ed upon, explain what Ontario was ready to do in the development of the Empire.
