INTERPRETING THE NEWS American Right Worries Europe | "The trouble with the image| of the Texan is the six-shooter at the waist." GUNS EASILY SOLD 2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Wednesday, November 27, 1963 GOOD EVENING -- By JACK GEARIN -- STEEL MILL SITE HUB-BUB OF ACTIVITY : Did you notice the abnormal activity this week down on that new steel mill site on Highway 401 between Oshawa and Whitby? After months of preliminary survey work, rumors and Cut Out Firemen's Jobs U.S. Rail Union Urged: WASHINGTON (AP)--A fed- eral arbitration board ruled Tuesday that 90 per cent of fire- men's jobs on diesel yard en- gines and freight trains in the United States should be elimin- ated. It said this should be done by attrition or with job protec- which the board said amounted to 65 per cent of the men af- fected. Most firemen with less By ALAN HARVEY Press Staff Writer Sympathy and censure are at tion of countercumors, things ate starting to happen. The Lake Ontario Steel Co. Lid. has started construction of a one-storey dffice administration building, and that's not all -- construction is scheduled to start soon on three addi- tional buildings as follows: Maintenance Stores, Rolling Mill and Melt Shop at a total cost of more than $1,000,000 for the four, Completion is expected in 1964. What will the new mill manufacture in the way of steel? A spokesman today de- scribed it as "a merchant bar bill' and explained it this way: "We take the steel, melt it - and roll it into different shapes, The melted steel is formed into billets in a con- 4 tinuous casting machine. It is processed in a rolling mill to become 'merchant bars', or 're-inforeing bars' for such punposes as re-inforcing con- crete, etc." The recently - organized pany has a capitalization of $8,000,000, he added, . and en the president is G. R. Hef- fernan of Edmonton, Alta., former managing director of Premier Steel Co. Lid. of Edmonton. He is soon to take up residence in Whitby, where the firm has a business office. The company expects to employ between 200-300 within two years of its opening next year, The mill will be located on the 35l-acre farm, recently owned and operated by William Hough, now in Florida. The site extends from Highway 401 to Lake Ontario and is a quar- ter-mile wide at the north end and half-mile at the south - part of the west boundary adjoins the Du Pont of Canada LAd. property, which is in the Town of Whitby. Asked why the company purchased this site, the spokes- man gave these reasons: Nearness to Whitby Harbor, main-line railway service and Lake Ontario water. The spokesman had words of high praise for "the excel- lent co-operation provided by both the Town of Whitby and Whitby Township." He said these two municipalities were doing ail within their power to work with the company and get this "big" operation under way. Mayor Stan Martin of Whitby inspected the site recently. , The Township of Whitby will build a heavy-duty bridge ecross the nearby CNR railway track to service the new mill -- already a firm of engineers has been engaged to take soil tests, etc., at the site. The farmhouse on the site adjacent to Highway 401 is a district landmark built seven years after Confederation by the late Barnabus Gibson, a railway contractor who helped build the Grand Trunk. The spacious, high-ceiling living room is a reminder of an era of elegance long since past. The farm was purchased by Mrs. Ralph Parker of Toronto -- wife of @ former pr of Int I Nickel Co. Léd., Sudbury, following the Second World War and she reportedly Gold it to Mr. Hough, a farmer. The 35l-acre farm also in- chades a 40-acre air strip used in the Second World War as an emergency landing field for this area. Some of the dilapi- dated airdrome buildings still stand. IN THE WHIRL OF THE SOCIAL WORLD The Oshawa Builders' Association will hold its annual Ladies' Night dinner in the Hotel Genosha next Friday, No- vember 29. This is the big social outing of the year for the OBA founded in 1948 and with a current membership of 60 firms representative of builders, sub-trades and suppliers. William Roth is president. . . . The big social event locally on Thursday night, November 28, will be the annual Fire- men's Bali at Owen McCrohan's famous Jubilee Pavilion near the east end of Lakeview Park. This will be sponsored by the 114-member Oshawa Firefighters' Association, president of which is William H. Wilson. This Ball, incidentally, has been held armually for more than 50 years, predating organi- zation of the Department on a fulltime basis in 1928 when a volunteer force served the mumicipality's needs. The guest list is expected to top the 500 mark as several out-of-town departments have been invited; also invited are His Worship Mayor Lyman Gifford and City Council, as well as depart- tment heads.

The thorny Twin problems of- fer a test of the warm expres- sions of goodwill and co-opera- tion sounded from all sides at Tuesday's conference opening. Provincial views on these cen- tral questions of Confederation vary widely. No one expects a solution to emerge from this week's talks in the big, secluded conference room of the Parlia- West Block. Prime Minister Pearson, de- chapter" in Confedera- tion, said the federal govern- ment is not committed to any particular tax-sharing plan and be needed. : The best solution, he said,| may require "entirely new ap-| proaches to the tax arrange-| ments of Canada and the prov- inces,"" Mr. Pearson also repeated his government's willingness to withdraw from some of. the |shared-cost programs and give |the provinces larger tax re- sources to enable them to go it {alone on any programs vacated \by Ottawa. The wide range of provincial | viewpoints and interests, spelled out in formal statements by the premiers, showed that the task Wide Gap Separates Ottawa - Provinces and co-operation in economic and fiscal policies. On the central issue of. tax sharing, Mr. Pearson served no- tice to the premiers not to look for higher federal taxation as a means of producing more funds for provincia] treasuries. Large: federal deficits of re- cent years must be. controlled of finding common ground among them is immense. Quebec and British Columbia were strongest in their demand for a larger provincial share of the direct tax fields--personal and corporation income tax and death taxes--occupied by both Ottawa and the provinces.

But they disagreed on who the outsiders should be, how many of them should be involved in the job and 4 the precise ground rules f of political seats should be. The debate in the Commons was gentle and polite--a far cry dominated most of the nine pre- vious redistribution debates when Parliament itself reset po- litical borders after the 10-year Censuses.
