Tresidder, representative, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 27, 1920 OSHAWA"S FINANCIAL POSITION The report which has been Issued by City Treasurer Blackburn, giving a com- plete statement of the city's finances as to December 15, 1980, is an interesting docu~ ment, one worthy of careful study by the people of Oshawa, and particularly by those who are placed in positions of authority in the community, The city of Oshawa Is passing through a critical period, financial- ly, and, with the year drawing near to a close, and the election of a new city council only a few days ahead, the time is appropri. ate for a stock-taking, for an analysis of the city's position, and that 1s what the city treasurer has, in a very capable manner, done, The treasurer's review of the situa- tion is intensely interesting, but the figures and statistics he presents are even more so, since they reveal the true position of the city at the present time, A hasty reading of the treasurer's re- view might lead to the impression that all was well with the civic finances, for he states that on December 15 there was an operating surplus of $17,808,138, that this will be sufficient to meet the ordinary ex- penditures until the end of the year, thus en- abling the citizens to "look forward to finish- ing up the year Nineteen - Hundred and Thirty with a 'balanced budget.' " This sounds highly satisfactory, but con- ditions are far from being as favorable as that statement would indicate, because in- cluded in the revenue is revenue which has been earned and not paid to the city, which means the unpaid taxes, These have been included in the statement of revenue by which the budget is balanced. This may be quite a legitimate way of showing assets, but it rather conceals the true position of af- fairs, since the uncollected taxes on 1980 ac- count amount to over $270,000, This Is money owing to the city, but not yet paid, and since there must be some doubt as to whether it will all be paid in the future, it must be doubtful whether it can be regard. ed as certain revenue, For instance, the unpaid 1929 taxes amount to $67,808, the unpaid taxes for 1928 total $9,932, and for 1927, $2,114, Thus, with over $270,000 of the 1980 taxes still owing, there is room for questioning that "balanced budget," and fop expressing the fear that the city is end- ing the year in a very bad financial condi tion, This question of tax arrears is serious one, and one which the new city council will have to tackle with courage, For future purposes, the treasurer states he has devised a system of dividing the tax payments into eight instalments, and this would be worthy of consideration, but it does not get away from the fact that the city is at present $270,000 short of the amount which should have been collected In taxes this year, and that while this can be counted as an asset, under the heading of accounts receivable, it can hardly be classed as current revenue, The treasurer's comparative statement of assessment, taxation, population and growth is very illuminating, In the last year, the population of the city showed a decrease of 7.8 per cent, During the same period, the ss debt increased by 10 per cent, the net dob by 16,07 per cent, the assessment by only 2 per cent, and the taxation per capita by 18.9 per cent, These are statistics which cause one to think very seriously of Osh- awa's financial position, The explanation, course, is found largely in the fact that bonds totalling well over $760,000 were ia- sued in March of the present year, these covering such items as the Collegiate and Technical School addition, pavements, sc- wers, sidewalks, suburban roads, and other capital expenditures made during the pre. vious two years, There have resulted in a net increase of approximately $600,000 to the city's debt, and this is, of course, reflect. od in the above statistics, These statistics, as can easily be observ- ed, show that, ulation, there have been substantial addi tions to the burdens of indebtedness and taxation, It is too late now to find fault with this situation, The works which have caused this were all in the category of worka for. which there was a popular demand by a most the citizens, and they have been carried out. - But one can readily see that the situation ia one which calls for a careful study of future policies, By reason of the unemployed sit- gation, the city has been forced into capital pxpenditures in advance of requirements, 30 that it is enly reasonable to presume that future capital expenditures will not be so heavy, In any event, it is essential that spending of this kind should be as conser vative as is consistent with the actual needs in the face of a decreased pop- of the community, so that there may be some hope of lightening the burdens of debt which is now resting on the city. The financial statement, if it does nothing else, emphasizes what many prominent citi- zens have said recently, that the present Is a time when the best business brains of the city are required on our municipal councils and other public bodies, in order that the situation may be dealt with courageously, and on a business-like basis, This Is no time for mincing matters, Oshawa is stand- ing at a critical period in its history, and men of proven business ability, men experi enced in handling big affairs in a big way, are needed as never hefore in its councils, be- cause, in spite of the assurance of a "bal anced budget" the situation is far from be- ing as satisfactory as one would like to see it, NOMINATION DAY On Monday, nominations will be made for the Oshawa city council, board of education and public utilities commiskion, Monday will be a day of great importance to the city of Oshawa, for on what is done at the places of nomination will depend, to a very large degree the calibre of these bodies during the next year, 'I'here are some indications that the list of nominations will be a lengthy one, that there will be an abundance of candi- dates placed in nomination, What the list will be like on Tuesday evening, when the period for qualifying closes is, however, a different matter, and it is on that list that the electors will vote on January b, It is to be hoped, 'most sincerely, that there will be a sufficient amount of good material left in the field after the qualifying period has closed to ensure that the electors will have before them enough candidates to provide for the selection of a council of the highest calibre, One would welcome, for instance, some of the outstanding business men of the city, manufacturers, professional men of high standing, and merchants of the first rank, as candidates for election, Such men are needed today in the councils of Oshawa's public bodies, and it would be a welcome thing if such men could be sufficl- ently impressed with a sense of clvie respon- sibility and duty to allow their names to go on the ballot papers, Monday, however, will show how far that hope has been realized, and will give a fairly good idea of the kind of council Oshawa will have in 1081, The citizens of Oshawa should also re- member the public meeting on Monday night in the council chamber, to hear the ad dresses of the candidates, This meeting, which should be a large public gathering for the open discussion of civic problems, has, in years past, been sadly neglected, It has been favored by the attendance of a few who are always interested, This year ought to be diffeffrent, Oshawa is at a critical period In its history, and it would en couraging to those aspiring to public office to find the council chamber crowded to the limit ef its capacity by citizens eager to hear from those who are appealing for their votes, It promises to be an interesting meeting, and it will 'be much more so if the electors would take it seriously, would rea- lize that it is being held for their benefit, and that that it is their duty, as citizens and electors, to be there to hear the views of those who are seeking to take charge of the city's affairs during the next twelve months, be TWO DANGERS Motorists in these days of winter are fac- ed with two outstanding dangers which are peculiar to the season, This has been evi- dent during the last week, when the roads have taken on an ley covering, and have made control of an automobile much more difficult than it is at normal times, The first danger is that of the slippery roads, The last few days have seen many serious accidents, many lives lost, as a ro- sult of this menace, In some cases, reck- less driving has been responsible; in others, too high speed on a slippery surface has caused the driver to lose control of hia car, and crash into other cars, or go into the ditches, There is only one safeguard against accidents of this kind, and that is the exercises of the greatest possible cave in the driving of automobiles, Drivers, in fact, cannot be too careful on the slippery roads, Speed should be cut down appreci- ably, and care should be taken not to ap- proach too closely a car ahead, since the ne- cessity of a sudden stop, in the case of cars driving too close to each other, often be- comes the cause of a serious accident, The second danger is not so much a dan. gor to the motorist as a danger that he will be the innocent causo of injury to others, Scores of children can be seen on the eity streets just now, riding their sleighs or play: ing hockey, Motorists have to be doubly careful on the residential streets, because it is impossible to tell when a little figure will dart in front of the car and be struck down, Already two children have been killed in this way in Toronto, We would suggest that parents can do more than anyone else to overcome this danger to their children, eith- er by closer supervision of their play hours or by the enforcement of strict requirements that they stay off the streets with their games, and thus reduce the accident hazard to a minimum, Oshawa citizens owe it to themselves to see that their city progresses industrially, and they owe it to themselves to take: part in that progress, : Eye Care and Strain by €, H.

BUSINESS HENTO STAGE CAMPAIGN FOR STOCK ISSUE (Continvred from page 1) ng the apocehios after the luncheon, he culled attontlon to tho fact that the first sod for the Coulter factory had been turned on Wednesday, hut that there was no assurances if finances to complete the plant, The directors, however, either had to go on with the building of the faotory, or lose the Industry to nome other community, This group of businass men had, therefore, heen called together to help put the campaign over the top. Two Alternatives There were two alternatives he« fore the oity of Oshawa, said Mr, Conant, At the present juneture there would he nothing more bene- flefal than the establishment of a new Industry of substantial propor tong, such as the Coulter industry, On the other hand, if it was found neeessary to announce to the world that the effort had fatled, the re« silts would be very detrimental to the city of Oshawa, He then outs lined the proposal which was the reason for the gathering, and asked whether those present were willing to lye thelr time and effort to pros duce success, An enthuslastio and whole-hearted response greeted the question, The committee named above was then farmed to take chavge of the campaign and effect the necessary organfzation, .
