Funds Donated to M. H. | For some time past the different members of the V.0.N» committees have been approached regarlirg the money raised for the Whitby Men- orial Hospital under ths auspices of the Order, by different con'ributors Names a Special Committee to Discuss Matter With Board--Annual Canvass Will Not Be Made This Year Ask for the Return of Hospital Money to Local Contributors Whitby V.O.N. Asks Provisional Board of Whitby Mem- orial Hospital to Consider Return of Contributions and | l} of that fund, as to its being return- ed to the donors. Although at the appointment of the provisional Hos- pital Committee some years ago, the control and direction of the money thus raised, passed entirely out of the hands of the V.O.N. ladies, yet they in turn feel somewhat morally responsible for its use and distribu- tion, since such a hospital for Whit- by is most unlikely. They realize clearly that the money contributed should be returned, and wish to show their stand in the matter by taking the initial steps to have this done, At the meeting on Monday after- noon, where a representative num- ber were present, a motion was car- ried, that a committee of the V. O. N. meet members of the provisional Hospital Board to investigate the undertaking. The committee having this in hand ask that those concern- ed and the public in general be gen- erous in any criticism of this at- tempt to straighten out a very deli- eate situation, for it is with regret that the V.O.N. have had to face in the past months a great deal of cen- sure for non-action in the matter when they themselves are powerless to act. Whitby's Grant For Unemployment Relief Is Reduced to $12,000 Council Greatly Handicapped in Carrying Out Projected Programme to Give Local Men Work -- P.U.C. Re- quested to Proceed With Renewal of Sewerage Force Main--Preference in Local Employment to be Given | to Married Men With and Without Families The .question of providing work for local unemployed men was up for discussion at the Town Counci! meeting on Monday evening, The clerk reported that he had received no word from the pro- vincial government regarding the | the town's request for reconsidera- rellef | from | tion of its unemployment grant, which had been cut $27,000 to $12,000.

The Council recommended to 'he Public Utility Commission that .t proceed with the construction of the new sewerage force main from the low level pumping station to the C.N.R. bridge on Brock street south, The present six-inch steel main is showing signs of deteriora tion, and it will be replaced with a six-inch cast fron main at an esti- mated cost of $3,979.24, of which $2,031 is set aside for local labor. If the town is successful in hay- ing its , government grant fn- creased, further work will be un- dertaken. In employing local labor, Council will first give preference to men with families, then men without families and single men who are breadwinners. FURTHER STREET INPROVEMENTS T0 BE CARRIED OUT Will Do More Gravelling -- Council Opposed to Hali Competition Some minor street improvements were discussed by the Town Couneil on Monday night. Although the ap- propriation for streets this year has been' spent, the Council decided up- on gravelling some streets which are now "in bad shape. The Council was informed that there will be an overdraft at the close of the year. The Council has many requests for street improvements, but were they all complied with, the cost would be very great. Oppose Competition The Council is opposed to the Board of Education renting the As- sembly Hall of the High School fo? local entertainment purposes, in competition with the Town Hall, for which t out a public amusement place li- cense and collect amusement taxes. Council was to consider a request for a reduction in town hall rental from a loeal church organiza- tion, the Men's Club of All Saints Church. The Club, it was pointed out, sponsored a show put on by an out. side company which was tp pay one half of the expenses, including hall rentals. The Club asked for a re- duction of $7.50, which is half of the regular rental fee, but Council held that inasmueh as thé Club had al- lowed this company to get away without paying $3.75, which they were entitled to pay, the town should not have to make good. Accordingly, the Council passed a motion that the Men's Club be granted a reduction of only $3.75. Coun. W. M., Pringle, who has on many odeasions opposed the princi- ple of town hall rental reductions, strongly advocated that the town should collect a regular rental fee from all parties using the hall. The town, he stated, did not collect enough to pay the janitor. The fact that the Council allows the schools the use of the hall once each year for $5.00, while the Board of FEdueation in opposition to the town is required to take |) town rents the Assembly Hall of the High School, was taken into consid- eration by the Council. This matter, it was recalled by Reeve Jackson, had been brought to the Boards' at- tention on' a former occasion. The Board had recently set a schedule of fees for the use of the hall. I'he motion, which will be sent by the clerk to the Board of Education, was moved by Coun. Davidson and seconded by Reeve Jackson, and is as follows: "That the clerk notify the Boagd of Education that this Council ob- ects to leasing the Assembly Hall of the High School for entertain- ment purposes, in competition with licensed halls in the town, and here- by gives notie that unless this prac- tise is discontinued, it will be the duty of the Council to take the mat- ter up with the Amusement Tax branch of the Provincial treasurer; also that the clerk draw the atten- tion of the Board to section 8 of the Amusement Tax Act.
