2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Wednesday, May 18, 1960 | NO ORDER-IN-COUNCIL TORONTO (CP)--The Niagara | Parks Commission has acquired land in contravention of .the Ni- ' lagara Parks Act, evidence at a foyal commission hearing before York County court Judge Ian Macdonell indicated Tuesday. NPC general manager Maxim T. Gray said under cross exami- nation that the commission pur- chased land for parks purposes without obtaining * an order-in- council. The act, prior to redraft- ing in 1949, provided that cabinet approval must be given for the acquisition of all lands. Questioned by lawyer Elmer |Sopha, Liberal member of the leg slature for Sudbury, Mr. Gray |said the commission had grouped lall land purchases in one docu- | ment in 1951 and presented it for |cabinet approval. He said 'he be- |lieved at one time that the act lot tabling the NPC annual report {in the leg 'slature was tantamount to getting the necessary approval.

It was Mr, luglis who instigated the inquiry failure tc call public tenders for work projects and g'ving business to persons who had connections with members of the commission. DIDN'T RESIGN i Mr, Sopha asked about Mr. In-| glis's resignation. Mr. Inglis had not resigned, Mr. Gray sald. He believed an order-in-council was obtained to dismiss him. Mr, Daley testified previously before a legislative committe that Mr. Inglis resigned after an argument. C. F. H. Carson, counsel for| the royal commission, asked if Mr. Gray had ever had any in-| dication there may have been collusion between the labor min- ister and Mr, Schmon concerning the land transaction. Mr, Gray said no. Welland) Niagara Lands Bought Illegally Crown attorney Toblas Forestell, a former commissioner, said he too did not know of any collusion. ORDER TO EXPROPRIATE Mr, Gray testified that the commission had received an or- der-in-council for the expropr.a- tion of about six acres of land from the Broderick farm, but de- cided to purchase the entire 46 acres. "The commission has always been opposed to expropriation," Mr. Gray said. "We didn't want to ride rough shod over people." He sal: the commission re- tained six. acres of the property because it was on the river front and decided to sell the remainder because it was unsuitable for parks development. Mr. Schmon's offer was the better of two, The land was purchased for $17,500. The unused 40 acres and an additional property was sold to Mr. Schmon for $10,400. Mr. Daley got the land and various equipment for $15,000. Fire Hazard In Use Of Jet Fuel MONTREAL (CP) -- The fire hazard at U.S. airports may be | increased if proposed measures to tax jet plane fuels at the same rate as regular aviation fuels are adopted, an American fuel expert sald today. R. H. Tolson of Texaco Incor- norated told delegates at the Na- tional Fire Protection Association convention here that if the kero- sene fuels now used by jets are subject to a tax increase, most operators will switch to a gaso- line-kerosene blend. The blend would be quicker-burning than kerosene and require adder safety precautions during ground servicing of planes. Storage of the blends would also be more hazardous. Vapors from the blends have more ten- dency to be flammable than those from either pure kerosene or pure gasoline, he said. Delegates at the convention, the international association's 64th, were told Tuesday that fire losses in rural areas are on the increase because of more costly investments in modern machin- ery and buildings. $18.000,000 INCREASE S. P. Lyle of the U.S. depart- ment of agriculture sald farm fire losses there in 1959 reached 174,000,000, un ahout $18,000,000 from the previous year.
