2. THE OSHAWA TIMES, Monday, Jonuery 73, 194 GOOD EVENING -- By JACK GEARIN -- AIR POLLUTION BYLAW ON THE WAY? . That was a most heartening local story in the news polumns last Friday--'Pollution Bylaw Is Step Closer". The fervent prayer of all concerned is that this is not mere . window-dressing on Council's part to appease cer- tain irate groups of the citi- zenry temporarily. _ Whatever it is worth, the Air Pollution bylaw will be presented to City Council Jan- uary 20 for consideration. "This will embark it formally on a long, time-consuming journey during which it will be presented to both industry and the public for further recommendations, It will also be submitted to the Air Pollu- tion branch, of the Ontario Department of Health for in- spection and this should take some time, DR. C, C. STEWART SEVERAL REVISIONS ARE SEEN AHEAD The bylaw will undoubtedty undergo several revisions in its forthcoming journeys, but it is basically the same as that which was rejected by City Council in November, 1960. It is based on provisions in the Provincial government's Air Pollution Control act. There is no easy road to implementing an effective Air Pollution Bylaw, as cities like Hamilton and Toronto have learned, but it is important to get such legislation on the books first of all if any progress is to be made. The Air Pollution situation in Oshawa has been deplorable at times as widespread groups of citizens have been clamouring for action for several years without noticeable effect thus far. The Province itself has been lax in not legislating effective curb laws, but many are hopeful that this will be done at the _ pent session of the Legislature. Under-the terms of the act, Air Pollution means "the in the outdoor at here of any air contamination in 'Squantities that may cause. discomfort to or endanger the health sor safety of persons, or that may cause injury or damage to "property or to plant or animal life." City Council itself originally ordered the Oshawa Board of »Health to make a survey back in 1960, which was done with the «co-operation of the Ontario Department of Health. Dr. C. C. Stewart, City MOH, said in his 1960 report: « "In conclusion, then, we know that we have a considerable "problem in Air Pollution in. Oshawa and that it is recom- "mended by the authorities, on the basis of a lengthy and thorough survey and analysis of the problem we put into feffect under the Air Pollution Control act of Ontario a bylaw "regulating Air Pollution in this City. We can logically assume that as the City continues to expand, our Air. Pollution problem "will become even more acute. We are authoritatively informed that the cost to the City of a good Air Pollution program is "awarfed by the economic losses that are inflicted by pollution "in our atmosphere. Medical resarch has uncovered a cor- yelation between dense air pollution and serious forms of ill a , and future research may well uncover close connec- cnet between lesser concentrations of air contaminants and certain illnesses. All things considered, it would appear only {logical that this municipality should protect itself against "an existing threat." "FEARS AIR POLLUTION DAMAGES HEALTH ~. "A community is only as healthy and vital as the people who live in it and are willing to work for it. If you don't y Mike what you have, don't look at others to fix it for you. Do = yourself." * MRS. RICHARD H. SCRIVENER, Chairman, Ontario _ division, The Community Planning Association of Canada, at the Oshawa Rotary Club, The above quotation was used last week by a Ritsan road « south taxpayer in a letter to Council requesting prompt action -'on that long<lelayed Air Pollution bylaw. ie The letter writer represented several citizens who com- .Plained about smoke and gas in that area, allegedly from a |, nearby factory, last January 2 and 3. ~ The letter-writer was especially concerned about the health of residents living in that area between King street on the north, Bloor on the south, Ritson on the east, and Simcoe on the west and recalls the warning sounded by Dr. C. C. * Stewart, City MOH, in his bygone reports on the subject. RTY COMMITTEE Mrs. Margaret Shaw, the outspoken trustee, declined a nomination to act as chairman of the Oshawa Board of Education last week, but she did accept another important post--the chairmanship of the Pro- . perty committee. This is the first time, in- cidentally, that a woman trustee has ever held this position on the local Board-- the Property committee makes recommendations for such items as furnishings of schools and other Board buildings, also repairs and replacements for same. Mrs. Shaw was unsuc- cessful in her first bid for election as a school trustee 1957, when she finished in 13th, position. Her story in muni- elections has been totally different since that, how- -- she ran 10th. in 1958, and seventh in 1960.

An eight-member tax commit- tee from the association, headed by W. J. Hulbig of Montreal, suggested, among other things, that the tax appeal board be en- larged and made into a court-- the Tax Court of Canada--with its judges on the same level as provincial' supreme court jus- tices. The court would become the original jurisdiction in income ang estate tax cases, and ap- peals could be taken to the Ex- chequer Court without an entir- ely new trial, as is the case now. Another innovation would be that when the revenue de- partment appeals a decision by it would lcarry the onus of proving the the proposed court, decision wrong. The association was highly critical of the arbitrary powers of the revenue department in involving tax investigations searches for, and seizures of, the documents of a taxpayer.

(CP) Health Minister Judy LaMarsh has compared problems uncov- ered in the cancer-and-smoking report by a United States medi- cal panel with the problems faced in Canada. In an interview Saturday, she said the findings '"'are pretty well the same as those which we will effect in this country" and hoped that Canadian and American authorities would work together to seek an an- swer to the problem. She said statistical reports in Canada have shown identical results to those of the American report--the findings of a 10- man scientific panel which spent 14 months on study. ened expectation of life through other illnesses, mainly involv- ing heart and blood circulation.

Additional research was ad- vocated also by Dr. Edward R.
